“In respect of small businesses and MSMEs restructured earlier, lending institutions are also being permitted as a one-time measure, to review the working capital sanctioned limits, based on a reassessment of the working capital cycle, margins, etc,” Das said.

Bankers had reportedly asked the RBI for a three-month moratorium, particularly for retail and small borrowers. This they said would prevent defaults.

Das also informed that RBI will give Rs 50,000 crore of liquidity support to banks for providing fresh lending ‘to a wide range of entities including vaccine manufacturers; importers/suppliers of vaccines and priority medical devices; hospitals/dispensaries; pathology labs; manufactures and suppliers of oxygen and ventilators; importers of vaccines and COVID related drugs; logistics firms and also patients for treatment’. These loans of up to three years tenor will be obtainable at repo rate and will be available till March 31, 2022.
