Why RBI Acted

Licensing breach

The Reserve Bank of India cancelled the Certificate of Registration of six non-banking financial companies under Section 45-IA(6) of the RBI Act, 1934. The release states that following cancellation of the registration certificate, the companies cannot transact the business of a non-banking financial institution as defined in Section 45-I(a).

Operating Impact

The six named companies lose their authority to carry on NBFC business and must stop transacting as non-banking financial institutions. This directly affects the entities themselves and any counterparties relying on their NBFC operations.

Regulatory Basis
