"I will meet Non-Banking Financial Company (NBFC) representatives in Mumbai tomorrow. We will discuss the liquidity issue of NBFCs. Liquidity conditions are being monitored constantly," he said.

Urjit Patel, the 24th RBI Governor, stepped down abruptly in December last year, weeks after differences between the Central bank and the government came out in the public.

Das, a member of the 15th Finance Commission and former Economic Affairs Secretary, was appointed RBI Governor, a day after Patel quit. Das will have the tenure of three years.
