The Reserve Bank of India has set April 1, 2027 as the implementation date for the Basel III Standardised Approach for operational-risk capital, while adding detailed mapping of Business Indicator components to financial-statement schedules and clarifying treatment of leases and derivatives. The central bank, in an amendment to its 2025 Directions issued on Friday, said the provisions under the chapter on minimum capital requirements for operational risk will come into effect from April 1, 2027. The 2025 Directions had already prescribed the shift from the existing Basic Indicator Approach to the Basel III Standardised Approach, but had said that the effective implementation date would be communicated separately.

The new framework is based on three components — the Business Indicator (BI), Business Indicator Component (BIC) and Internal Loss Multiplier (ILM). The BI is calculated as the sum of the Interest, Lease and Dividend Component (ILDC), Services Component (SC) and Financial Component (FC).
