Correct Answer - Option 4 : All of the above

The correct answer is All of the above.

  • Financial sector reforms:
    • The Narasimham committee was established in August 1991 to give comprehensive recommendations on the financial sector of India including the capital market and banking sector.
    • The major recommendations made by the committee are:
      • To reduce the cash reserve ratio CRR and the statutory liquidity ratio SLR.
      • The committee recommended reducing CRR to 10% and SLR to 25% over the period of time.
      • Recommendations on priority sector lending- the committee recommended including marginal farmers, small businesses cottage industries, etc in the definition of priority sector.
      • The committee recommended fixing at least 10% of the credit for priority sector lending.
      • Deregulation of interest rates- the committee recommended deregulating the interest rates charged by the banks.
      • This was necessary to provide independence to the banks for setting the interest rates themselves for the customers.
