RBI was recognized for its Pravaah and Sarthi digital initiatives, developed by its in-house team. These initiatives have significantly reduced paper-based submissions, streamlining RBI’s internal and external processes.

Central Banking, a London-based global financial institution, has provided independent coverage, data analysis, and expert training for over three decades. It acknowledged RBI’s transformation from a traditionally paper-heavy institution to a more digitally integrated system.
