Dear Sir |
|
Acquisition of Financial Assets by Securitisation Companies/Reconstruction Companies (SC/RCs) - Clarifications |
| References have been received by the Bank seeking clarifications whether acquisition of financial assets by one SC/RC from another SC/RC will be in conformity with the provisions of SARFAESI Act/ guidelines issued by the Bank in the matter. Further, certain SC/RCs have desired to know if the SC/RCs can deploy their funds for the purpose of restructuring of acquired loans to enable them to realise their dues. |
2. The issues were examined and our response is as under: (i) A Securitisation Company/Reconstruction Company is neither a ‘bank’ in terms of provisions of Section 2(1)(c) of SARFAESI Act, 2002 nor a ‘financial institution’ in terms of provisions of Section 2(1)(m) of the said Act. Therefore, acquisition of financial assets by one SC/RC from another SC/RC will not be in conformity with the provisions of SARFAESI Act, 2002. (ii) ‘Restructuring of loans by SC/RC’ is one of the measures allowed to be undertaken by SC/RCs for realisation of their dues. As such, there is no bar on SC/RCs deploying their funds for undertaking restructuring of acquired loan account with the sole purpose of realizing their dues. |

Yours Sincerely
