RBI:

RBI with an intention to Simplify the Procedures and Processes for Obtaining Agricultural Loans, has advised the Banks to dispense with the requirement of ‘No Due Certificate’ for small loans up to Rs.50,000 to small and marginal farmers, share-croppers and the like and, instead, obtain self-declaration from the borrower. However in order to ensure hassle free credit to all borrowers, especially in rural and semi-urban areas and keeping in view the technological developments and the different ways available with banks to avoid multiple financing, banks are advised to use an alternative framework of due diligence as part of credit appraisal exercise other than the ‘No Due Certificate’.
