Rbi Crackdown On Kotak Mahindra Bank

Kotak Mahindra Bank must immediately stop onboarding new customers through its online and mobile banking channels and issuing new credit cards, the Reserve Bank of India said as it flagged "serious deficiencies and non-compliances".

In a major crackdown for violations and lapses related to foreign exchange laws and KYC (know your customer) norms, the Reserve Bank of India has imposed a Rs 27 crore penalty on 13 public- and private-sector banks, while asking eight others including State Bank of India (SBI) and ICICI Bank to ensure strict compliance with guidelines.
