Case brief
RBI imposed a monetary penalty of ₹26.60 lakh on The Kalupur Commercial Co-operative Bank Ltd., Ahmedabad. The action followed findings of non-compliance with deposit transfer requirements and lending-related directions involving a director-linked interest.
Impact
The bank must absorb the monetary penalty and remain alert to any further supervisory or enforcement action from RBI. The order does not by itself restrict operations, but it highlights compliance obligations around depositor fund transfers and connected-party lending controls.
