Question
Under the draft prudential norms proposed by the Reserve Bank of India, what is the maximum dividend payout that eligible banks may distribute from their net profit?
Solution
The Reserve Bank of India has proposed revised prudential norms allowing eligible banks to distribute up to 75% of their net profit as dividends, subject to capital adequacy and regulatory requirements. This is a significant increase from the earlier cap of 40% and is intended to reward well-capitalised banks while maintaining financial stability.
