The Reserve Bank of India has cancelled the banking licence of Shree Mahalaxmi Urban Co-operative Credit Bank, effective immediately. A liquidator has been appointed to wind down the bank's operations.
RBI's stated rationale: the bank was running on inadequate capital, had zero viable earning prospects, and was operating in a manner that threatened the financial safety of its own depositors.
The key number from this failure is that 97.9% of depositors at the bank are set to recover all of their money. This is possible because of the Deposit Insurance and Credit Guarantee Corporation (DICGC), which insures every retail depositor up to ₹5 lakh.
