RBI governor to brief panel on April 9 for new bank licences

08 Apr 2013 Evaluate

The Reserve Bank of India Governor D Subbarao is expected to inform the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Finance on April 09 about the final guidelines for award of new licences in the banking sector. The panel has been tracking the issue since the RBI released the final guidelines for new banking licences. 

As per the RBI final guidelines, business houses, state-run enterprises and non-banking finance companies (NBFCs) having 10-year impeccable track record are eligible to apply for licences to set up banks. However, it is expected that the RBI would get difficulty in passing the bill as the left parties have already opposed the move.

Meanwhile, the Communist Party of India (CPI) has also said in a statement that the banks set up by the big business houses will increase the scope for large-scale financial malpractices. The recent scams involving big business highlight the danger of financial swindles in such banks that will deprive the people who deposit in such banks of their hard-earned savings.

Earlier in 2011, the panel had informally discussed the issue with certain members and had expressed concerns about RBI’s move. On the other hand, several corporate bodies have already evinced interest in starting new banks. Presently, Indian banking industry consists of 26 public sector banks, 22 private sector banks and over 40 foreign banks.
