New Delhi : Reserve Bank of India (RBI) imposed fine of Rs 1 crore to State Bank of India (SBI) for not complying with specific directions.

The country’s largest bank has been penalised for violating rules related to frauds classification and reporting by commercial banks and select financial institutions, the RBI said in a statement.

Earlier, the central bank had imposed a penalty of Rs 1.95 crore on Standard Chartered Bank for failing to report a cyber security incident.

The action against SBI is based on the deficiencies in regulatory compliance and is not intended to pronounce upon the validity of any transaction or agreement entered into by the bank with its customers.

The central bank conducted a review of SBI in a customer account maintained with it and the examination of the scrutiny report revealed non-compliance with the directions on reporting of fraud in the said account to SBI, the central bank said.

A notice was issued to the bank advising it to show cause why penalty should not be imposed on it for such non-compliance with the said directions, the RBI said.
