RBI Compliance & Regulatory FAQs
Essential compliance answers for Company Secretaries, Chartered Accountants, and corporate legal teams.
Q.What is the difference between an RBI circular and a Master Direction?
An RBI circular announces a specific operational instruction or policy revision. Master Directions consolidate all existing instructions on a regulatory area (e.g., KYC, NBFCs, FEMA, Digital Payments) into an ongoing running compendium updated dynamically whenever amendments occur.
Q.Are RBI circulars binding on all banks and NBFCs in India?
Yes. RBI directives issued under the Banking Regulation Act, 1949 and RBI Act, 1934 are mandatory statutory directions. Non-compliance attracts supervisory action and monetary penalties under Section 47A.
Q.Where can banks and financial institutions track RBI circulars?
Official RBI notifications, circulars, and Master Directions are published on rbi.org.in under the Notifications and Master Directions sections.
