The central bank has formed a committee to provide its recommendations to ensure secured digital payments intelligence platforms to prevent online frauds.

Meanwhile RBI at the Monetary policy announcement on Friday assured the Indian banking system is robust and the gross NPA (Non-Performing Assets) of the schedule commercial banks and NBFCs are below 3 per cent.
The RBI highlighted several key factors contributing to this positive trend, including enhanced provisioning for bad loans, sustained capital adequacy, and increased profitability.
Governor Shaktinata Das stressed the importance of continued improvement in governance standards, risk management practices, and compliance culture across regulated entities.
The central bank had previously flagged concerns in November last year about the excessive growth in unsecured retail loans and the over-reliance of NBFCs on bank funding.
