Case brief
RBI imposed a ₹2 lakh penalty on Experian Credit Information Company of India Private Limited for non-compliance with credit information law and rules. The breaches related to delayed discrepancy intimation and failure to update/correct credit information in time.
Impact
The company must bear the monetary penalty and remains subject to any further regulatory action RBI may choose to initiate. The order does not itself suspend operations, but it signals ongoing supervisory scrutiny over credit information handling, discrepancy reporting, and timely correction processes.
Why RBI acted
Regulatory basis
