RBI UPDATE
Format of Statutory Auditors’ Certificate (SAC) to be submitted by NBFCs
In terms of the extant instructions, all NBFCs are required to submit a certificate from their Statutory Auditors every year to the effect that they continue to engage in the business of NBFI requiring it to hold a CoR under Section 45-IA of the RBI Act.
With a view to ensure consistency in the manner in which the information is received from the Auditors, it has been decided to introduce a uniform format of the Statutory Auditors Certificate (SAC).
The NBFC would need to fill in the information, as applicable, in COSMOS. Thereafter, the SAC needs to be scanned and uploaded in COSMOS https://cosmos.rbi.org.in under the menu Upload Returns > Statutory Auditors Certificate.
