Shajapur Jilla Sahakari Kendriya Bank Maryadit
Madhya Pradesh, India
The Reserve Bank of India imposed a penalty of ₹1 lakh on Shajapur Jilla Sahakari Kendriya Bank Maryadit, a cooperative bank based in Madhya Pradesh. The action, announced on Jul 28, 2026, followed an inspection that found the bank had failed to transfer eligible unclaimed amounts to the Depositor Education and Awareness Fund (DEA Fund) within the prescribed period. The violation breached RBI directions on the handling of unclaimed deposits.
60 lakh. RBI stated the penalty is based on deficiencies in regulatory compliance and is not intended to affect the validity of any transaction or agreement entered into with customers.
