The RBI has a framework, first issued in 2014 and updated in 2023, to identify very large and important banks in India called Domestic Systemically Important Banks (D-SIBs). Under this framework, the RBI must publish the names of such banks every year and place them into different categories based on how important they are. The more important a bank is, the more extra safety capital (CET1) it must keep as a cushion against financial stress. For foreign banks operating in India that are considered Global Systemically Important Banks (G-SIBs) in their home countries, they also need to keep extra CET1 capital in India, but only in proportion to the size and risk of their Indian operations.
