Yeh Change Kyun?
Reserve Bank of India ne final kar liya hai ki mandatory Investment Fluctuation Reserve (IFR) ab banks ke liye bandh ho jayega. Yeh rule May 18, 2026 se apply hoga. Basically, market risk aur investments ko manage karne ke rules update ho rahe hain. Pehle IFR ek safety net jaisa tha, agar investments ki value kam ho jati toh uske liye.
Funds Kahan Jayenge?
Toh jo paisa IFR mein May 17, 2026 tak hoga, woh kidhar jayega? Simple hai, yeh funds statutory reserves, general reserves mein transfer ho jayenge, ya phir Profit and Loss Account mein dikhenge. Aur agar koi foreign bank India mein branch se operate kar rahi hai, toh unka IFR balance unke Indian accounts mein statutory reserves mein jayega, ya phir profits mein jo India mein hi retain honge.
Aur Kya Naye Rules Hain?
Ab yeh rule sabke liye same nahi hai. Cooperative banks, small finance banks (SFBs), aur payments banks (PBs) ke liye alag directives hain. SFBs aur PBs ke liye final rule ye hai ki IFR transfer unke net profit se hoga, woh bhi sab expenses aur allocations ke baad. Iss naye regulatory update se banks ko apni capital aur reserves manage karne mein aur flexibility milegi, aur rules follow karna thoda easy ho jayega.
