Case Brief
The Reserve Bank of India cancelled the Certificates of Registration of six NBFCs, namely GE Strategic Investments India (GESII), Profound Exports Private Limited, Two Brothers Holding Limited, Swank Services Private Limited, Praxis Consulting and Information Services Private Limited, and Credible Microfinance Ltd. The action was taken under Section 45-IA(6) of the RBI Act, 1934. As a result, these entities cannot transact the business of a non-banking financial institution.
Why RBI Acted
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.
