Case brief
RBI imposed a ₹60,000 penalty on Mehmadabad Urban People’s Co-operative Bank Ltd. for non-compliance with CIC membership/data submission and KYC directions.
Impact
The bank must absorb the ₹60,000 penalty; the order does not itself impose a business restriction, but it reflects compliance deficiencies under CIC and KYC norms and leaves RBI free to initiate further action if warranted.
