    Solution

    As per the guidelines issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), for doubtful advances, banks are required to make a provision based on the period for which the asset has remained doubtful. For unsecured advances that are considered doubtful for a period of more than three years, the provision to be made is 100%. This means that the bank must set aside an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding amount of the unsecured doubtful advance as a provision against possible losses.
