Quick answerRBI mandates SCs/RCs to report Owned Funds in quarterly SCRC1 returns and submit audited balance sheets with Directors/Auditors Report within one month of AGM, effective from March 31, 2008.

What changed

RBI partially modified its earlier circular of April 25, 2007, requiring all registered SCs/RCs to now include Owned Funds as item 1 in their quarterly SCRC1 statements. Additionally, they must submit audited balance sheets along with Directors and Auditors reports within one month of the AGM where results are adopted, starting with the March 31, 2008 balance sheet.

What it means for you

This tightens reporting discipline for securitisation and reconstruction companies, ensuring RBI gets timely, audited financials and clearer capital position data. Banks dealing with SCs/RCs can expect more reliable owned fund disclosures, aiding risk assessment and regulatory compliance.
