Overview
What ARC registration actually involves
An ARC buys non-performing assets from banks and financial institutions and works to recover or restructure them.
Registration under Section 3 of the SARFAESI Act, 2002 is mandatory — operating without it is not permitted.
The current minimum Net Owned Fund requirement for registration is ₹300 crore, per RBI's notification.
ARCs raise funds by issuing security receipts to qualified buyers — banks, financial institutions, and other notified investors.
The RBI's certificate of registration is typically granted for five years and is renewable.
Benefits
Why sponsors prepare their ARC application through us
Open each benefit to see what it means for you.
Capital structuring done right
₹300 crore of Net Owned Fund has to be genuine, documented, and traceable. We work with you to structure and evidence it before RBI asks.
A real business plan, not a formality
Acquisition strategy, resolution approach, funding plan, risk controls — we draft the plan RBI expects from a serious applicant.
Governance that passes scrutiny
Board composition, sponsor background, and management depth are all examined. We help you present a credible team.
Handled through the long cycle
ARC applications run for months with multiple query rounds. We stay on the file until there is a decision.
Operating model clarity
We explain how the security-receipt trust structure works in practice, so your team understands the business it is entering — not just the license.

Process
Asset Reconstruction Company Registration process — step by step
You’ll see each stage, what’s pending and what we need from you — so filings don’t bounce back.
Step 1 of 5
Structure the ARC
We incorporate the company (if not already done) with ARC business as a main object and ensure promoters meet RBI's fit and proper criteria under the SARFAESI Act, 2002.
Meet the capital requirement
RBI requires ARCs to maintain a minimum net owned fund — currently Rs. 100 crore. We help you document and certify the capital before applying.
Prepare the RBI application
We compile the registration application with the business plan, promoter details, financials, and board-approved policies. Preparation typically takes 4-6 weeks.
File with RBI
The application is filed with the RBI's Department of Regulation. RBI examines the application and may seek clarifications — we handle the responses.
Registration and commencement
On satisfaction, RBI grants the certificate of registration. The ARC can then commence the business of asset reconstruction — acquiring NPAs from banks and resolving them. The approval process typically takes 6-12 months.
