Case brief

RBI imposed a Rs 25 lakh penalty on The Greater Bombay Co-operative Bank Limited, Mumbai. The penalty was for not following RBI directions on charges for non-maintenance of minimum balance in savings accounts.

Impact

The bank must absorb the penalty and ensure its charges for non-maintenance of minimum balance comply with RBI directions going forward. The order does not itself alter customer contracts, but it signals closer regulatory scrutiny of deposit-account charge practices for affected account holders.
