dated August 26, 2004]
A: Details of the Revision in the NRD-CSR version 2.1: The reporting system "Non-Resident Deposit-Comprehensive Single Return" (NRD-CSR) has been revised from May 2004. Accordingly, the following changes are there in the revised reporting system.
1. Capturing high value transactions: Aggregate inflows and outflows as well as transactions with amount more than a cut-off limit during the month of reporting for all schemes are captured separately. Thus, a few new record type codes have to be added to indicate high value flows out of total flows. Limits of high value transactions are Indian Rupees 10,00,000; United States Dollar 23,000; Euro 20,000; Grate Britain Pound 12,500 and Japanese Yen 25,00,000
2. New Data items: Two new data items are added as follows.
a. A new data item is added for Number of account for which transactions/balances are aggregated.
b. A new data item for Account type, i.e., Fixed deposit, Recurring deposit, Current A/C and Savings A/C is added under the revised NRD-CSR reporting system.
3. Changes in the existing data item: Following two changes are there in the existing data items.
a. Students as a special investor category is added in addition to Individual and OCB.
b. Interest rate is to be reported in terms of basis points instead of actual rate to minimise rounding off errors.
4. All other data items are to be reported as per earlier reporting system. The new reporting requirement is furnished in Annex-II.
B: Facilities in the NRD-CSR version 2.11. Banks, including branches / regional offices, using or intending to use NRD-CSR need to install the new version 2.1 to ensure the reporting of NRD-CSR data under revised reporting system.
2. Uses of NRD-CSR package are unchanged. Thus, user will not find any difference while working in the new version 2.1.
3. All formats for loading data at branch portion i.e. data on Account details and flows, for loading into the NRD-CSR branch, are unchanged. Thus, the interface developed by bank branches for downloading data from their own computer for loading into the NRD-CSR (branch database), are not required to be changed.
4. There is a facility to change the cut-off limit for high value transactions, strictly with a RBI key only.
5. There is a change of format from forwarding data from branch to Nodal/Head Office to ensure revision in reporting system. However, NRD-CSR version 2.1 will take care of that through its new aggregation and reporting module.
6. Nodal Office and Head offices will be able to load data received from their branches in the old format also, with a warning message.
7. Monthly data of Head/Nodal office has to be transferred to a backup file to ensure its working performance for big banks having large number of branches.
8. There is a new menu under Monitoring system of Nodal / Head Offices to facilitate generating list of defaulting branches with their addresses and details in the receipt of data.
