I got the news that this year status quo will be maintained and those who are already on the panel of different banks might be issued appointment letter. A crucial high level meeting between RBI and bankers association is being held on 9th march

Hello From some reliable sources it comes to know that RBI has decided for bank audits on the following norms: Branches with advances of less than 10 crore will be audited once in three years and other branches will be under the old and existing norms. This news is not still confirm. Hope for the best
