NBFC Compliance – A Complete Guide

We help you comply with RBI’s regulatory framework for NBFCs — covering end-to-end services from registration to post-setup filings, policy drafting, and ongoing compliance.

Overview of NBFC Compliance

Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) operate under the regulatory framework set by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). All NBFCs must comply with strict reporting standards, registration procedures, and post-registration obligations to avoid penalties or license cancellation.

Whether you’re planning to register a new NBFC or need help maintaining your current one, our compliance consultants ensure zero-default RBI alignment.

Ensure your NBFC operates smoothly and legally at every stage. Our compliance solutions cover everything from company setup to ongoing operational adherence, including timely RBI filings, maintaining statutory documents, and robust internal controls. We assist with CIMS DNBS returns, CKYC and CIC registration, policy drafting, management changes, and regular compliance training. Proactive compliance not only prevents penalties and regulatory scrutiny but also builds lasting trust with borrowers, investors, and stakeholders. Stay ahead of risk, enhance your institutional reputation, and focus on business growth while we handle your end-to-end compliance needs.

Stay updated on essential RBI guidelines for NBFCs to ensure seamless operations and avoid disruptions. All NBFCs must adhere to minimum Net Owned Fund (NOF) norms, file quarterly and half-yearly CIMS DNBS returns, and complete CIC & CKYC registration for lending activities. RBI approvals are required for any management or directorial changes, both before and after the event. Keeping comprehensive policy documents in line with RBI Master Directions is compulsory and aids in smooth audits and regulatory assessments. Our team continuously tracks regulatory changes and supports your implementation, so your NBFC remains audit-ready and fully compliant at all times.
