Case brief
RBI imposed a ₹1 lakh penalty on Pragati Mahila Nagrik Sahakari Bank Maryadit, Bhilai, for regulatory non-compliance. The issues related to exposure norms and KYC requirements.
Impact
The bank must bear the monetary penalty and remain subject to RBI supervision. The order does not itself impose an operational restriction, but the compliance failures may expose the bank to further regulatory action if similar breaches continue.
