The above companies will not transact the business of a Non-Banking Financial Institution, as defined in clause (a) of Section 45-I of the RBI Act, 1934. The certificate of registration to some of the companies was granted as early as 1998 and to two of them the certificate of registration was granted in 2016 and 2018.

The NBFC sector plays a critical role in the economy. The cancellation of NBFCs’ registration by banking regulator comes at a time when the sector is already facing liquidity crunch and many steps have been taken by the government to take them out of the gloom so that their business kick-starts, thereby boosting consumption in the economy.
