RBI rejected the application of these two companies, they had applied to open a small finance bank

Two companies' applications have been turned down by the Reserve Bank of India. Two companies, Dwar Kshetriya Gramin Financial Services Pvt Ltd and Tally Solution Pvt Ltd, submitted applications to establish small bank financing. These, however, were turned down because they didn't match the RBI requirements.

The RBI had previously turned down three applications in July 2023. About twelve applications had been submitted to RBI to establish banks by the Small Finance Banks (SFBs) and Universal Banks On Tap Licencing Guidelines. The RBI said in a statement on Friday that it has finished reviewing two more applications to establish small finance banks by the current regulations.
