RBI Sets Guidelines to Regulate Loan Recovery and Protect Borrowers
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has introduced guidelines to regulate loan recovery practices, aiming to prevent harassment and protect borrower rights. Lenders are barred from abusive behavior, unauthorized calls, and threats, with clear rules on communication and agent conduct. After a missed EMI, banks typically start with reminders before escalating to formal notices or legal action, especially after 90 days of non-payment. Borrowers are encouraged to engage proactively to avoid credit damage and explore restructuring options.
