DFS clears viability plan 2.0 to improve financial health and competitiveness of RRBs

New Delhi, May 5 (UNI) Department of Financial Services (DFS) approved a revised viability plan 2.0 for the next three years from 2025-26 to 2027-28 aimed to enhance financial sustainability and long-term competitiveness of Regional Rural Banks (RRBs), said a Finance Ministry statement here on Tuesday.
Earlier, DFS introduced this type of plan covering FY 2021-22 to FY 2024-25 to institutionalise performance monitoring and strengthen governance reforms in RRBs.
In Viability Plan 2.0, there’s a defined set of thirty performance parameters centered around four pillars : (i) Operational excellence, (ii) Asset quality, (iii) Profitability, and (iv) Growth.
“The key critical metrics across these four pillars include CRAR, credit-deposit ratio, digital adoption, NPA levels, recovery performance, profitability ratios and performance in implementation of Government of India schemes,” the statement said.
This plan offers a balanced and comprehensive framework to monitor the health of RRBs. It will foster financial stability across and improve operational efficiency across all twenty-eight RRBs.
This strategy will also ensure the alignment of RRBs with national priorities or rural credit expansion, digital inclusion and financial outreach.
