FIs are allowed an extension up to December 31, 2024 for developing the requisite models for calculating EAD for revolving products beyond the contractual date.

Effective Interest Rate (EIR) Method

Fls are allowed to use the existing practice for recognizing interest income/expense on financial assets/liabilities up to September 30, 2024.

However, FIs shall ensure the recognition of interest income/expense on financial assets/liabilities on the EIR method as per the IFRS 9 standard with effect from October 01, 2024.

Similarly, FIs shall measure the subsidized staff loans, extended to their employees as per HR policies, at fair value as per the IFRS 9 standard with effect from October 1, 2024.
