  1. What is the minimum paid up capital requirement for Primary (Urban) Co-operative Banks (UCBs) to become Small Finance Bank?

    Ans is 200 corre not 100

    1. Hi good observation. But the question does not asks “What is the minimum paid up capital requirement for Primary (Urban) Co-operative Banks (UCBs)”. In this case the answer would have been Rs 200 crore.

      Rather it is saying what is the minimum paid up capital so that UCBs can convert in SFBs?

      Hence as per RBIs guideline…

      for Primary (Urban) Co-operative Banks (UCBs), desirous of voluntarily transiting into Small Finance Banks (SFBs) initial requirement of net worth shall be at ₹ 100 crore, which will have to be increased to ₹ 200 crore within five years from the date of commencement of business.
