RBI felt comfortable  with the Bimal Jalan committee .RBI opened up the possibility that will allow applicants to apply again ,  once they start giving licence on tap , as well as create differentiated banking licence.some of the applicants will be better off applying for differentiated licences rather than full licence as per version of Mr Rajan Governor  RBI.
Reserve Bank of India is going to offer only two New licences after a gap of a decade , due to public governess it considered this the most appropriate stance.

Several large industrial houses  Aditya Birla Group ,Reliance and bajaj Group and finance companies Shri Ram Capital ,L&T finance holding,Muthoot Finance had applied for a banking Licence.

Some of the entities that did not qualify for a full fledged banking licence in this round could re apply in the future.  In a discussion paper on India's Banking structure (released in Aug 2013) the banking regulator has said banks had shown significant progress in financial inclusion and in improving the  quality of risk management but added a lot more needs to be done.Mr Rajan added that RBI opened  up the possibility that will allow applicants to apply again, once they start giving the licence.
