    Solution

    The Reserve Bank of India has categorized State Bank of India (SBI), HDFC Bank, and ICICI Bank as systemically important banks (D-SIBs). These banks are considered "too big to fail" due to their size, complexity, and interconnectedness within the banking system. SBI and ICICI Bank were designated as D-SIBs in 2015 and 2016, respectively, while HDFC Bank joined in 2017.
