This penalty has been imposed in exercise of powers vested in RBI under the provisions of section 47A (1) (c) read with section 46 (4) (i) and section 56 of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949, taking into account the failure of the bank to adhere to the aforesaid directions issued by RBI.

Background

The Inspection Report and Risk Assessment Report of the bank based on its financial position as on March 31, 2021, revealed, inter alia, non-compliance with specific directions issued to the bank by RBI under Supervisory Action Framework (SAF). Based on the same, a Notice was issued to the bank advising it to show cause as to why penalty should not be imposed for non-compliance with the said directions.

After considering the bank's reply to the notice and submissions made during the personal hearing, RBI came to the conclusion that the aforesaid charge of non-compliance with RBI directions was substantiated and warranted imposition of monetary penalty.
