Reserve Bank imposes fine of Rs 28.30 lakh on SG Finserv
The RBI on Monday said that it had, among other things, revealed non-compliance of specific conditions related to the Certificate of Registration (CoR) in the financial details of the company for the financial year 2022-23. The Reserve Bank said in a statement that the company has taken money from people as deposits and given loans despite not following the specific conditions in the COR issued.

The Reserve Bank has also imposed a fine of Rs 14 lakh on Arunachal Pradesh Gramin Bank. This penalty has been imposed on the bank for not following certain instructions on strengthening financial criteria and ‘Know Your Customer’ (KYC). This type of mistake happens in banks of small or rural areas but RBI is the regulator of banks and it keeps taking action from time to time.
