Case brief
RBI imposed a monetary penalty of ₹1.50 lakh on The Chitradurga District Co-operative Central Bank Ltd., Chitradurga, Karnataka. The action followed findings of director-related lending and delayed KYC record uploads to CKYCR.
Impact
The bank must absorb the ₹1.50 lakh penalty and address the compliance gaps identified by RBI. The order does not state any direct operational restriction, but it signals supervisory concern over related-party lending controls and KYC record management.
