Can you clarify if this extension is only for listed ones or for unlisted NBFCs also? Most of the RBI officials are saying this is for listed entities only. If anyone has any clarity on this please out some more light. Interpretations can be different but what’s the actual picture?
Slightly confused on this. So by virtue of this circular this is extended till December 31, 2020 (three month from September) ?
So what’s exactly the due date for unlisted NBFCs after this circular?
