The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has released the Supervisory Data Quality Index (sDQI) for Scheduled Commercial Banks (SCBs) for March 2026.
The index evaluates the quality of supervisory data submitted by banks based on four key parameters—accuracy, timeliness, completeness, and consistency of returns and microdata used for regulatory and supervisory assessments.
The sDQI aims to measure banks' compliance with the standards prescribed under the Master Direction on Filing of Supervisory Returns, 2024, and promote higher-quality data reporting to strengthen supervisory oversight and decision-making.
