The recognized SRO shall have a good mix of NBFC-ICCs, HFCs, and NBFC-Factors as its members. To ensure fair representation to smaller NBFCs, the SRO shall have at least 10% of the total number of NBFCs in the Base Layer as per Scale Based Regulatory Framework and categorized as NBFC-ICC and NBFC-Factor, as its members, the bank added.

In addition, the applicant should achieve a minimum net worth of Rupees two crore within one year after recognition as an SRO by the Reserve Bank, or before the commencement of operations as an SRO, whichever is earlier. Thereafter, the SRO shall maintain this on an ongoing basis.
