RBI imposes monetary penalty on Suvarnayug Sahakari Bank Ltd., Pune, Maharashtra- (Reserve Bank of India) (08 Aug 2024)

Banking

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has, by an order dated August 05, 2024, imposed a monetary penalty of ₹2.00 lakh (Rupees Two lakh only) on Suvarnayug Sahakari Bank Ltd., Pune, for non-compliance with certain directions issued by RBI on 'Know Your Customer (KYC)'. This penalty has been imposed in exercise of powers vested in RBI, conferred under section 47A(1)(c) read with sections 46(4)(i) and 56 of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949.

The statutory inspection of the bank was conducted by RBI with reference to its financial position as on March 31, 2023. Based on supervisory findings of non-compliance with RBI directions and related correspondence in that regard, a notice was issued to the bank advising it to show cause as to why penalty should not be imposed on it for its failure to comply with the said directions. After considering the bank's reply to the notice and oral submissions made by it during the personal hearing, RBI found, inter alia, that the charge of failure to update KYC of its customers as per prescribed periodicity was sustained, warranting imposition of monetary penalty.

This action is based on the deficiencies in regulatory compliance and is not intended to pronounce upon the validity of any transaction or agreement entered into by the bank with its customers. Further, imposition of monetary penalty is without prejudice to any other action that may be initiated by RBI against the bank.
