RBI may let wilful defaulters shed label after settlement

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has issued a draft master direction on the treatment of wilful defaulters, allowing borrowers to remove the tag by reaching a compromise settlement with banks. The new rules aim to provide a transparent procedure for classifying borrowers as wilful defaulters while complying with the principles of natural justice. However, some criminal cases may lose ground as a result. Via Times of India https://ift.tt/dfjNJZ4
