Case brief
RBI has imposed a ₹1 lakh penalty on The Batlagundu Co-operative Urban Bank Limited, Tamil Nadu. The action follows breaches of prudential capital and lending-related directions.
Impact
The bank must bear the monetary penalty and remains subject to RBI supervision. The order does not itself cancel or restrict the bank’s operations, but it signals continuing compliance expectations around capital adequacy, lending limits, and SAF directions.
