During the year ending June, AP DIR Circulars were issued for updating the guidelines. However, RBI has started issuing Master Directions on all regulatory matters beginning January 2016. The Master Directions consolidate instructions on rules and regulations framed by the Reserve Bank under various Acts including banking issues and foreign exchange transactions. Master Directions are issued for each subject matter covering all instructions on that subject. Any change in the rules, regulation or policy is communicated during the year by way of circulars\/press releases. The Master Directions are suitably and simultaneously updated whenever there is a change in the rules\/regulations or there is a change in the policy. All the changes will get reflected in the Master Directions available on the RBI website along with the dates on which changes are made. Explanations of rules and regulations are available by way of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs). The existing set of Master Circulars issued on various subjects will stand withdrawn with the issue of the Master Direction on the subject.
