2. In this regard, on a review, it has been decided to amend clause (c) of Section 43 to read as under:

“Customer Due Diligence (CDD) of all the members of SHG may be undertaken at the time of credit linking of SHGs.”

3. The Master Direction on KYC dated February 25, 2016, is hereby updated to reflect the changes effected by the above amendment and shall come into force with immediate effect.

Yours faithfully,

(Thomas Mathew)
