Under the new rules, banks will have to file for insolvency proceedings against loan defaulters with Rs 20 billion ($311 million) or more if a resolution plan is not implemented within 180 days of the initial occurrence of a default.

t also tightened rules around resolution plans, saying any such process involving restructuring or change in ownership for large accounts with loans of 1 billion rupees or more will need independent credit evaluation by credit rating agencies that are authorized by the RBI.

Loans of Rs 5 billion or more will need two such independent evaluators
