Installation Guide for Version 1.6

To
All Authorised Dealers in Foreign Exchange

Madam/Sirs,

Non-Resident Deposits - Comprehensive Single Return

Authorised Dealers are aware that the National Statistical Commission has recommended introduction of a computerised Comprehensive Single Return (CSR) for collection of data on Non-Resident deposits. With a view to implement the recommendation, Reserve Bank has developed a software package captioned "NRD-CSR", for reporting the data on non-resident deposits through floppy disks on monthly basis as indicated therein.

2. The banks receiving and maintaining Non-Resident Deposits are accordingly required to submit the data in CSR format on monthly basis with effect from April 2003 onwards through electronic media i.e. floppy/ email. To facilitate the banks in this endeavour, the NRD-CSR package Version 1.6 is being supplied to all the banks for the use of their head offices as well as their branches. The application has two parts, one for branches and the other for head offices. Head offices of banks will report consolidated data from all concerned branches in the prescribed format to Reserve Bank. This will replace the existing returns in forms STAT-5, 8 & 9 in due course. However, banks may continue to submit STAT-5, STAT-8 & STAT-9 returns as hitherto till further instructions.

3. The reporting format and codes to be used are given in Annexure I. The data in the prescribed format through electronic media pertaining to each month should reach Reserve Bank of India, Department of Statistical Analysis and Computer Services, C/8, Bandra Kurla Complex, Mumbai 400 051 on or before 10^th of the month following the month for which it pertains. Thus the data in the revised format for the month of April 2003 should reach Reserve Bank on or before May 10, 2003.

4. The package is also available on the RBI website (www.rbi.org.in).

5. Authorised Dealers may bring the contents of this circular to the notice of their branches concerned.

6. The directions contained in this circular have been issued under Section 10(4) and Section 11(1) of the Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 (42 of 1999).

Yours faithfully,

Grace Koshie)
Chief General Manager
