The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has imposed a monetary penalty of Rs. 1.61 crore on Indian Bank for failing to transfer eligible amounts to the Depositor Education and Awareness Fund within the required timeframe. Additionally, the bank did not comply with specific RBI directives concerning interest rates on advances, the Kisan Credit Card (KCC) Scheme, and lending to the MSME sector. Indian Bank has taken proactive steps to ensure that such non-compliance does not occur again in the future. Stakeholders should monitor the bank's adherence to regulatory guidelines moving forward.
