Case brief
RBI imposed a ₹10,000 penalty on Dharmavir Sambhaji Urban Cooperative Bank Ltd., Pune for KYC non-compliance. The bank had not uploaded customer KYC records to CKYCR within the prescribed timeline.
Impact
The bank must absorb the monetary penalty and continue complying with RBI’s KYC directions, including timely CKYCR uploads. The action does not invalidate customer transactions, but it signals supervisory non-compliance and may be followed by further regulatory action if issues persist.
Why RBI acted
Regulatory basis
- Section 47A(1)(c) read with Sections 46(4)(i) and 56 of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949
