Reserve Bank of India said on Friday group entities of banks shall not be used to circumvent guidelines applicable to the parent for carrying on business activities that are not otherwise permitted.
RBI reviewed the current guidelines in public interest, in order to ring-fence the banks' core business from other risk-bearing non-core businesses and to provide level-playing field to all the banks, according to a draft circular.
Indian laws permit banks to undertake various forms of businesses, in addition to the core business of banking.
These can be undertaken by the bank departmentally or through a separate group entity.
Banks will now require prior approval of the RBI to undertake any new activity through a group entity, it said.
