RBI Proposes Loan Pricing Framework and Weekly Credit Reporting Updates
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is introducing measures to enhance transparency and efficiency in lending and credit reporting. It proposes a unified framework by April 2027 for banks and NBFCs to standardize loan pricing and spread determination, aiding borrowers in comparing loans. Additionally, from July 2026, lenders must update credit information weekly, enabling more timely credit score recalculations. These changes aim to improve clarity in loan costs and provide borrowers with more current credit data, benefiting those with positive credit histories while reflecting repayment challenges sooner.
