UGC NET 2015 Paper 1 Question Paper (27-Dec-2015)
The correct answer is

Neither (a) nor (b)

The Reserve Bank of India has several wholly owned subsidiaries that carry out specialised functions on its behalf.

(a) The Deposit Insurance and Credit Guarantee Corporation (DICGC), set up in 1978 by merging the Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Credit Guarantee Corporation, insures bank deposits and is fully owned by the RBI. So it is a subsidiary of the RBI.

(b) Bharatiya Reserve Bank Note Mudran Private Limited (BRBNMPL), established in 1995 to print currency notes at Mysuru and Salboni, is also wholly owned by the RBI. So it too is a subsidiary.

Since both entities are RBI subsidiaries, there is nothing in the list that is not a subsidiary.

Hence, the answer is Neither (a) nor (b).
