As per RBI directives, its to be revised as per new guidelines. Fatca/CRS can be filled online, but for KYC IPV is must.

Thanks for the reply.
Do the existing accounts opened before 31st December 2015 needs to file FATCA/CRS? I am based in Europe and have NRO Account in India which was opened before 31st of December 2015 and as per the CBDT guideline, accounts opened before this date for CRS purpose need not to be reported.
