"This action is based on regulatory compliance deficiencies and is not intended to pass judgement on the validity of any transaction or agreement entered into by the bank with its customers," it added.
RBI conducted a mandatory assessment to conduct a supervisory evaluation of the bank's financial position on March 31, 2020. The assessment disclosed non-compliance with the relevant instructions to the extent that the bank failed to credit (shadow reversal) the amount involved in the unauthorised electronic transaction to the customer's account within 10 working days of the customer's notification, RBI said.
The regulator stated that it had sent the bank a notice advising it to show cause why a penalty should not be levied for failing to comply with the said instructions.
"After considering the bank's reply to the notice, oral submissions made in the personal hearing, and examination of additional submissions made by it, RBI came to the conclusion that the aforesaid charge of non-compliance with the aforesaid RBI directions was substantiated and warranted imposition of monetary penalty, to the extent of non-compliance with such directions," the release stated.
