              The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has imposed a monetary penalty of ₹20 lakh on M/s Shriram City Union Finance Ltd. for violation of directions/orders issued by Reserve Bank of India from time to time.

              Reserve Bank of India officials conducted a scrutiny of sample loan accounts of the company during November, 2015.

Hence, the company was issued a Show Cause Notice (SCN) on August 1, 2016 for imposition of penalty.

After considering the facts of the case and the company’s reply, as also, personal submissions made during the hearing, Reserve Bank of India came to the conclusion that the violations as observed during scrutiny were substantiated which warranted imposition of monetary penalty on the company.
