New Delhi, PTI. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) imposed a fine of Rs 1 crore on the country's largest bank State Bank of India (SBI) and Rs 1.95 crore on Standard Chartered Bank for violating various guidelines. Scrutiny of a customer account of SBI found that there was delay in giving information about the fraud in that account.

RBI issued a show cause notice to SBI in this regard. After receiving a reply from the bank, the central bank imposed a fine of Rs 1 crore on SBI. In a statement, RBI said that the penalty was imposed on SBI for non-compliance of the directions contained in the Reserve Bank of India (Frauds – Classification and Reporting by Commercial Banks and Select Financial Institutions) Directions, 2016.

Standard Chartered Bank was fined Rs 1.95 crore for non-compliance of the instructions. This monetary penalty has been imposed in exercise of the powers vested in RBI under the Banking Regulation Act, 1949.

Meanwhile, the RBI has said that with a spurt in the vaccination campaign and a reduction in the COVID-19 mortality rate, the time has come for India to embark on a new path of sustainable and inclusive growth. An article written by a team of RBI officials led by Deputy Governor MD Patra on 'State of the Economy' said aggregate supply is improving on strong kharif yield performance and revival of manufacturing and services And domestic demand is strengthening.
