The list of applicable returns to be filed by all Supervised Entities is mentioned in Annexure III attached to the directions. Commercial banks have to file 36 returns including Return on Asset Liability and Off-Balance Sheet Exposures, Return on Asset Quality, Liquidity Return, Return on Ownership and Control, Return on Defaulted Borrowers etc. Similarly, select All India Financial Institutions have to file 10 returns.
