Case brief
RBI imposed a ₹3 lakh monetary penalty on U. P. Postal Primary Co-operative Bank Ltd., Lucknow. The bank was found non-compliant with RBI's Supervisory Action Framework directions.
Impact
The bank must absorb the penalty and remain compliant with the underlying RBI directions going forward. The release does not describe a business restriction or operational ban, but it signals continued supervisory scrutiny and the possibility of further RBI action if non-compliance persists.
Why RBI acted
