Case brief
RBI has imposed a Rs 4.50 lakh penalty on Chandrapur District Central Co-operative Bank Ltd., Maharashtra. The action follows KYC and regulatory-compliance lapses found in a statutory inspection.
Impact
The bank must bear the monetary penalty and remains subject to any further supervisory or enforcement action RBI may initiate. The release does not impose a new operational restriction, but it signals continued compliance expectations around unclaimed deposits, KYC record reporting, and customer identification controls.
