The Reserve Bank of India wants to set up small finance banks. They have recently rejected two more applications towards achieving their goal: Tally Solutions Private Limited and Dvara Kshetriya Gramin Financial Services Private Limited.
So far, the regulator has received 13 applications for setting up banks under the guidelines for ‘on tap’ licensing of Small Finance Banks and Universal Banks, as per a statement released by the RBI on Friday. Two of these applications are still under consideration whereas the rest 11 have been rejected.
In January, 2024, Fino Payments Bank applied to the Central Bank of India for a small finance bank license. Micro-lending Annapurna Finance Private Limited, which is based in Bhubaneswar, applied for a universal bank license in January 2023. RBI is yet to take decisions regarding both applications.
