RBI/2008-09/ 219DBOD.No.BP.BC. 58 /21.04.048/2008- 09 – It has come to our notice that in view of somewhat tight liquidity conditions in the domestic markets in the recent past, some of the banks have been averse to disbursing working capital limits and term loans (including short-term loans) to their clients against the sanctioned limits even in cases where the drawing power is available in the client’s account and all the terms and conditions of the sanction of the loan stand complied with.

DGBA.GAD.No. 10577 / 42.01.038 /2007-08 – We further advise that It has been decided inconsultation with the Controller General of Accounts, Ministry of Finance, Government of India that the cut-off time of 8.00 p.m. fixed for e-payment transactions would be applicable for all Government transactions including EASIEST and OLTAS. The other instructions contained in para 1 of our circular would remain unchanged.
It was further clarified to banks that ‘being satisfied’ means that the bank must be able to satisfy the competent authorities that due diligence was observed based on the risk profile of the customer in compliance with the extant guidelines in place. An indicative list of the nature and type of documents/ information that may be relied upon for customer identification was also given in the Annex-II to the aforesaid circular. It has been brought to our notice that Annex-II, which was clearly termed as an indicative list, is being treated by some banks as an exhaustive list as a result of which a section of public is being denied access to banking services. Banks are, therefore, advised to take a review of their extant internal instructions in this regard.
It has been brought to our notice that the quality of data reported under EASIEST continues to be poor. Approximately, 45% of the challans do not bear any assessee code. It may please be noted that indication of assessee code and location code in the G.A.R.7 challan by the tax payer has since been made mandatory. Banks are, therefore, advised that no payment of Central Excise & Service Tax should be accepted by bank branches unless the assessee code of the tax-payer is quoted on the G.A.R.7 challan. At the time of acceptance of the challans, the authorised bank branches should, therefore, ensure that the 15 digit/character valid assessee code is quoted by the tax-payer in the challan.
