The registration had permitted the company to carry on non-banking financial institution business. Following the cancellation, the company is no longer permitted to transact that business.

Why RBI Acted

Licensing breach

Under Section 45-IA(6) of the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934, RBI cancelled the Certificate of Registration issued to Amaravathi Finance Private limited, Chennai, as surrendered on October 28, 2002. The company had been authorised to carry on the business of a non-banking financial institution, and after cancellation it cannot transact that business as defined under Section 45 I(a).

Operating Impact
