RBI modifies norms for banks on short term crop loan scheme under KCC

29 Apr 2022 Evaluate

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has modified norms for banks to claim the amount of interest subvention provided to farmers under the short-term crop loan scheme through Kisan Credit Card (KCC) during 2021-22. Pending claims for the 2021-22 financial year can be submitted by June 30, 2023, and those have to be duly certified by the statutory auditors ‘as true and correct’.

To provide short-term crop loans up to Rs 3 lakh to farmers at an interest rate of 7 percent per annum, the government offers an interest subvention of 2 percent annually to banks. An additional 3 percent interest subvention is provided to farmers who pay their loans promptly. For such farmers, the effective interest rate is 4 percent.  As per the circular on 'Modified Interest Subvention Scheme for Short Term Loans for Agriculture and Allied Activities availed through Kisan Credit Card (KCC)' during 2021-22, banks are required to submit their claims on an annual basis duly certified by their statutory auditors as true and correct, within a quarter from the close of the year.

Any remaining claim about the disbursements made during the year 2021-22 and not included in the claim as of March 31, 2022, may be consolidated separately and marked as an 'Additional Claim' and submitted latest by June 30, 2023, duly certified by the Statutory Auditors as true and correct.
