In April 2025, RBI operationalised which exclusive internet domain for banks to strengthen cybersecurity ?
.bank.in
To curb phishing and fake banking websites, the Reserve Bank of India announced in February 2025 an exclusive internet domain reserved only for Indian banks, so that customers can recognise a genuine bank website at a glance.
The domain is managed by the Institute for Development and Research in Banking Technology (IDRBT), Hyderabad, which acts as the exclusive registrar. Registrations opened in April 2025, and banks were directed to migrate their websites to the new domain by 31 October 2025.
A matching domain for other financial-sector entities was announced as .fin.in. The names .finance.in, .rbi.in and .securebank.in are not the domain launched for banks, so none of them fits the question.
Since .bank.in is the domain RBI launched for banks and it is among the given options, “None of the above” does not apply.
.bank.in option is correct.
