a. Dr. Urjit R Patel
b. Shri R Gandhi
c. Shri S S Mundra
d. None of these.

ANSWER: Shri R Gandhi
 
The committee will examine the line of businesses that UCBs may be permitted to undertake and their benchmark in terms of size of business, capital requirement, regulatory regime etc. It will also suggest the appropriate size up to which a UCB may be able to grow without undue risk to the system. The committee will further suggest the criteria for allowing voluntary conversion by a UCB. RBI has also asked the committee to examine whether the time is opportune to give license to new UCBs.
