The lending institutions shall make provisions on the residual debt at the time of implementation of the Resolution Plan, as stipulated in the relevant Resolution Framework. If any non-fund based facility gets devolved subsequently, the devolved amount shall be reckoned as residual debt4 and shall attract provisions as per Paragraph 405 and 416 of RF 1.0, and consequently, the assessment of monitoring period should be updated accordingly. The entire provisions (including the provisions on the devolved amount) shall be held, until the same is reversed in terms of the provisions contained in the relevant Resolution Framework.

6 However, lending institutions which did not sign the ICA within 30 days of invocation shall, immediately upon the expiry of 30 days, keep provisions of 20 per cent of the debt on their books as on this date (carrying debt), or the provisions required as per extant IRAC norms, whichever is higher. Even in cases where the invocation lapses on account of the thresholds for ICA signing not being met, in terms of para 18, such lending institutions which had earlier agreed for invocation but did not sign the ICA shall also be required to hold 20 percent provisions on their carrying debt.
