The draft directions, issued last month, come in the backdrop of the central bank in September 2024 highlighting irregular practices amid a significant rise in loan against gold portfolio of some lenders. The RBI had asked the lenders to review their policies, processes and practices to identify gaps and initiate remedial measures in a time-bound manner.
