- First, you need the company incorporation certificate which is registered under either Companies Act, 2013 or the Companies Act, 1956 and it must be a Private or Public Limited Company.
- Then, you must apply for online registration on RBI’s official COSMOS website.
- On the COSMOS website, you’ll find an Excel application form that you have to download, fill up with required information and upload again on the website.
- Once you have completed the submission, you’ll receive a Company Application Reference Number (CARN) for the CoR (Certificate of Recognition) application filed online.
- After that, you’ll have to submit a physical copy of the application along with all the necessary documents to your Regional Office of the Reserve Bank of India.
