What this agent does

The Provisioning & IRACP Agent AI computes the NPA classification and provisioning requirements for LendingIQ's loan portfolio under RBI's Income Recognition, Asset Classification and Provisioning (IRACP) norms — identifying which accounts have crossed DPD thresholds that trigger classification, calculating the required provision for each classified account, and producing the IRACP compliance report for the board and RBI submission. It is the computation engine for the provisioning process; the authorised official is the accounting decision-maker.

Primary functions

NPA Classification

Month-end and on DPD event trigger

INVOKED WHEN: month-end batch runs or CBS flags an account crossing a DPD threshold requiring classification review

  • Reads the CBS DPD position for every active loan and applies the IRACP classification rules: accounts at 90 DPD or more are classified Sub-Standard; accounts that have remained Sub-Standard for 12 months are classified Doubtful; accounts that have remained Doubtful for prescribed periods or where the recovery prospect is remote are classified Loss. Each classification is based on the DPD count alone — the IRACP rules are mechanical, not judgment-based.
  • Checks for upgrade eligibility: an account that was classified as NPA but has since regularised (all overdue amounts paid, account performing for at least the prescribed regularisation period under IRACP) is eligible for upgrade back to Standard. The agent identifies upgrade-eligible accounts and flags them for the authorised official's review — upgrading an NPA account is an equally regulated act as classifying one.
  • Produces the classification schedule — every account's current classification, the DPD basis for classification, and the change from the prior period's classification (new NPA, upgrade, no change). The schedule is the authorised official's review document before sign-off.
Output: NPA classification schedule — all classified accounts with classification category, DPD basis, classification date, and period in current category. Upgrade-eligible accounts flagged. Change summary (new NPAs, upgrades) for the authorised official's review and sign-off.

Provision Calculation

Per classification — on month-end run

INVOKED WHEN: NPA classification schedule is finalised and provisioning requirements need to be computed

  • Applies the IRACP provisioning rates to each classified account: 15% for Sub-Standard (unsecured) / 15% for Sub-Standard (secured, reducing to nil for the secured portion where the security is current and adequately valued), 25% for Doubtful I (first year), 40% for Doubtful II (second year), 100% for Doubtful III and beyond, and 100% for Loss accounts. The rates are mechanical applications of the IRACP master circular — the agent does not apply judgment on provisioning adequacy.
  • For secured accounts, reads the current security valuation from the security valuation store and computes the net unsecured exposure (outstanding balance minus current security value) — because the IRACP provisioning rate applies to the unsecured portion, and the provisioning requirement for a secured NPA with adequate collateral is materially lower than for an unsecured one.
  • Computes the aggregate provisioning requirement and compares it to the current provisioning balance on the general ledger — identifying the provision shortfall or surplus. Where the required provision exceeds the current provision, flags the shortfall for the CFO to authorise a GL provisioning entry.
Output: Provisioning schedule — required provision per account with computation basis (outstanding, security deduction, net unsecured, applicable rate, required provision). Aggregate provision shortfall/surplus vs current GL balance. Shortfall flagged for CFO authorisation of GL entry.

IRACP Compliance Report

Quarterly for board + Regulatory submission

INVOKED WHEN: quarterly board compliance reporting cycle or RBI regulatory submission is due

  • Produces the formal IRACP compliance report: NPA ratios (Gross NPA, Net NPA) by portfolio segment and product, movement in NPA during the period (fresh NPAs, upgrades, write-offs, recoveries), provisioning coverage ratio, and a compliance note confirming that classification and provisioning have been applied in accordance with the IRACP master circular.
  • Tracks changes in the IRACP master circular through the RBI regulatory corpus — if RBI amends provisioning rates or classification criteria, the agent flags the change and updates the computation methodology before the next month-end run. IRACP compliance is only as current as the regulatory corpus.
Output: IRACP compliance report — board-ready format with NPA ratios, NPA movement table, provisioning coverage, and compliance confirmation. Regulatory submission appendix for RBI.

Hard guardrails

Will notPost provisioning entries to the general ledger. All GL entries require the authorised official's review and posting. The agent computes the required entry; the official authorises and posts it.
Will notClassify or declassify an NPA account without the authorised official's sign-off. Classification is a regulatory accounting act — the computation is the agent's output; the authorised act is the human official's.
Will notApply judgment on provisioning adequacy beyond the IRACP prescribed rates. The IRACP rates are the regulatory floor; any additional provisioning above the floor requires the board or credit committee's judgment and authority.

Known limitations

Security valuation freshness is critical for secured NPA provisioning accuracy.The provisioning calculation for secured NPAs depends on the current security valuation. An outdated security valuation — a property valued 2 years ago in a declining market — may produce a provision calculation that understates the actual net unsecured exposure. RBI requires that security valuations be updated annually for NPA accounts; where valuations are overdue, the agent flags them rather than using the stale value.
IRACP norms have been revised multiple times and continue to evolve.The agent applies the current version of the IRACP master circular retrieved from the regulatory corpus at runtime. If the corpus is not updated promptly when RBI amends the norms, the agent will apply outdated rules. The Regulatory Change Monitor AI is configured to flag IRACP amendments immediately — but the gap between RBI notification and corpus update must be zero for provisioning accuracy to be maintained.
