03 August 2024 For Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs), the provisioning norms for various types of assets are prescribed by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). Here are the general provisioning requirements as per the RBI guidelines:

### **1. Provisioning for Standard Assets**
- **Rate:** 0.25% of the outstanding amount.
- **Description:** Standard assets are those that are not overdue and are performing as per the terms and conditions of the loan agreement.

### **2. Provisioning for Sub-Standard Assets**
- **Rate:** 15% of the outstanding amount.
- **Description:** Sub-standard assets are those which have remained NPA (Non-Performing Asset) for a period of less than or equal to 12 months.

### **3. Provisioning for Doubtful Assets**
- **Rate:**
- **For Assets that have been NPA for more than 12 months but less than 3 years:** 25% of the outstanding amount.
- **For Assets that have been NPA for more than 3 years:** 40% of the outstanding amount.
- **Description:** Doubtful assets are those which have been classified as NPA for more than 12 months and are further categorized based on the duration of non-payment.

### **4. Provisioning for Loss Assets**
- **Rate:** 100% of the outstanding amount.
