Understanding of NBFC Compliance.

RBI compliance for NBFCs has recently gotten more difficult. Previously, non-banking financial companies had an advantage over banks. There was a time when NBFC compliances were far simpler and liberal, but following the Sahara case, the RBI created new compliances for NBFCs and continues to screen them. Significant rules include Securitization of Standard Assets and Guidelines for NBFC Private Placement. RBI continues to put forward attempts to prevent theory in NBFCs.

Non-Banking Financial Companies are registered under the Companies Act 2013, and are involve in the business of receiving deposits, loans and advances, acquisition of stock/bonds/shares, debentures and securities issued by the government. NBFCs are actively involved in the financial activities and are registered by the Reserve Bank of India. No NBFC can run their business without receiving the license from Reserve Bank of India.

Term 'Principal Business' in an NBFC

The phrase 'Principal Business' refers to financial operations in which a company's financial assets account for more than half of its total assets and income from financial assets exceeds half of its gross income. Any company that meets both of these requirements is qualified to register as an NBFC. However, the RBI has not defined the word "principal business," but it has made it clear that enterprises engaged in financial activity can be registered and overseen by the RBI.

As a result, enterprises that engage in agriculture, the sale and acquisition of goods, the building and sale of immovable property, and industrial activity cannot be regulated and monitored by the RBI because they do not meet the criteria for an NBFC.
