Today, the Reserve Bank released its web publication entitled ‘Quarterly Basic Statistical Returns (BSR)-1: Outstanding Credit of Scheduled Commercial Banks (SCBs) - December 2023 on its ‘Database on Indian Economy’ portal1 (https://dbie.rbi.org.in Homepage > Publications). It captures various characteristics of bank credit such as occupation/activity and organisational sector of the borrower, type of account and interest rates based on account-level reporting2. Data reported by 90 SCBs (excluding Regional Rural Banks) are presented for bank groups, population groups3 and states4.
