Case brief
RBI imposed a ₹1 lakh monetary penalty on Bilaspur Nagrik Sahakari Bank Limited, Bilaspur. The penalty was for non-adherence to RBI’s UCB exposure norms, including breach of the prudential inter-bank exposure limit.
Impact
The bank must absorb the ₹1 lakh penalty; the release does not describe any new operational restriction or license action. The finding may also leave the bank exposed to further supervisory or enforcement action by RBI if additional issues are identified.
