Banks and NBFCs use it to report to RBI, and what they report increasingly includes their vendors.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"tags\">\n  <li><span class=\"tag t-peri\">Glossary<\/span><\/li>\n  <li><span class=\"tag t-sage\">India<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<div class=\"short\">\n  <p class=\"k\">The short answer<\/p>\n  <p>DAKSH is the Reserve Bank&#8217;s Advanced Supervisory Monitoring System, a web-based workflow application launched in October 2022 as part of RBI&#8217;s SupTech programme. Supervised entities such as banks and NBFCs use it to submit compliance responses, receive inspection communications, and report cyber incidents and payment frauds. The name means efficient and competent in Hindi. You only get a DAKSH login if you are a supervised entity; vendors never do.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<p>That last line is why the term matters to software companies. You will not log into DAKSH, but incidents involving your product can end up inside it, filed by your customer, against their regulatory clock.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"toc\">\n  <p class=\"k\">On this page<\/p>\n  <ol>\n    <li><a href=\"#what\">What DAKSH is<\/a><\/li>\n    <li><a href=\"#flows\">What flows through it<\/a><\/li>\n    <li><a href=\"#who\">Who has access, and who does not<\/a><\/li>\n    <li><a href=\"#vendor\">What it means if you sell to banks<\/a><\/li>\n    <li><a href=\"#osto\">How Osto helps vendors keep pace<\/a><\/li>\n    <li><a href=\"#faq\">FAQ<\/a><\/li>\n  <\/ol>\n<\/div>\n\n<h2 id=\"what\">What DAKSH is<\/h2>\n\n<p>RBI supervises thousands of regulated entities. Historically that supervision ran on email, spreadsheets and fragmented returns. DAKSH consolidates it into one platform with anytime, anywhere secure access, covering inspection planning and execution, compliance monitoring, cyber incident reporting and analysis, and management reporting.<\/p>\n\n<p>It is a supervisory tool rather than a compliance framework. DAKSH does not create new security obligations. It is the pipe through which existing obligations are evidenced, chased and escalated, which in practice makes those obligations far harder to let slide.<\/p>\n\n<figure>\n<div class=\"sx\">\n<svg viewBox=\"0 0 760 250\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" role=\"img\" aria-label=\"A vendor supplies a bank or NBFC, which reports into DAKSH, which RBI supervises.

Supervised entities use it for compliance responses, inspection communication, cyber incident reporting and payment fraud reporting.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n<details>\n  <summary>What does DAKSH stand for?<\/summary>\n  <p>It is not an acronym. DAKSH is a Hindi word meaning efficient and competent, chosen by RBI to reflect the intended capabilities of the platform.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n<details>\n  <summary>Who can access the DAKSH portal?<\/summary>\n  <p>RBI supervised entities such as banks, NBFCs, urban co-operative banks and payment system operators, along with RBI supervisory teams. Vendors and service providers have no access.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n<details>\n  <summary>Can a SaaS vendor be DAKSH compliant?<\/summary>\n  <p>No. DAKSH is a reporting platform for supervised entities, not a certification or framework. What a bank actually needs from a vendor is security controls, current testing and evidence it can rely on when it files.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n<details>\n  <summary>Is cyber incident reporting to RBI done through DAKSH?<\/summary>\n  <p>Yes, cyber incident reporting and analysis is one of the functions RBI built into DAKSH, alongside compliance monitoring and inspection workflows.
