Case brief

RBI has withdrawn the Section 35A Directions earlier issued to Raigad Sahakari Bank Limited, Mumbai. The directions had been extended from time to time before being lifted with effect from December 28, 2023.

Impact

The bank is no longer subject to the withdrawn RBI Directions as of December 28, 2023. Any operating constraints imposed by those directions have been lifted, so customers and the bank’s management are no longer bound by that specific restriction set.

Regulatory basis

  • Section 35A read with Section 56 of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949
  • sub-section (2) of Section 35A read with Section 56 of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949

Case brief

RBI extended the existing Directions on Raigad Sahakari Bank Limited, Mumbai, for three more months. The earlier operating restrictions continue unchanged until January 18, 2024, subject to review.

Impact

Raigad Sahakari Bank must continue operating under the same RBI Directions and any associated restrictions through January 18, 2024, subject to review. The extension maintains the status quo for customers and counterparties, meaning any existing limitations on the bank’s operations continue for the stated period.
