RBI allows RRBs to launch internet banking with caveats

Reserve Bank of India has allowed Regional Rural Banks (RRBs) to launch online transaction through internet banking.
  • Profitable RRBs with minimum Rs 100 crore networth and better asset quality will be allowed to offer this service.
Eligibility:
  • Banks with capital adequacy ratio over 10% will be allowed to introduce the online transaction services.
  • RRBs need to have their gross NPA ratio less than 7% and their net NPA should not exceed 3%.
  • The bank should have made a net profit in the immediate preceding financial year and overall, should have made net profit at least in 3 out of the preceding four financial years.
