Robust LIC, SBI results exposed Congress conspiracy to weaken them: BJP

The BJP on Friday cited the strong financial performance of the government-run LIC and the State of Bank of India to assert that it has exposed the Congress' "conspiracy to weaken these institutions and harm the country". BJP leader and former Union minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said though the Congress claims to support the public sector, it ran a negative campaign targeting the Life Insurance Corporation of India and the State Bank of India. He noted that the Life Insurance Corporation profit in the March quarter stood at Rs 13,428 crore, a rise of 466 per cent. The SBI profit in 2022-23 was Rs 50,232 crore, a rise of 58 per cent, the BJP leader said. The Congress has been constantly running down these organisations as part of its "conspiracy" but their robust results have exposed the party, Prasad said.

SBI penalised for sending bills to man despite credit card's expiry

A Delhi consumer forum has directed the SBI Cards & Payments Services Pvt. Ltd. to pay Rs 2 lakh to a person here for sending him bill even after his card's expiry and blacklisting him for non-payment of the charges. The New Delhi District Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum comprising its president Monika A Srivastava and members Kiran Kausal and Umesh Kumar Tyagi directed the company to pay the amount to M J Anthony, a former journalist, for "deficiency in providing services". The forum noted that the company had blacklisted him in the CIBIL system of the wilful defaulters maintained by the RBI, which resulted in the rejection of his applications for credit cards from another bank where he had maintained regular account for nearly two decades. "This Commission is of the view that the SBI Cards & Payments Services Pvt. Ltd. has been deficient in providing services to the complainant and though the damage/loss occasioned to the complainant in terms of credit rating cannot be ...

Withdrawal of Rs 2,000 to have favourable impact on deposits, says SBI

An SBI study on Tuesday said the withdrawal of Rs 2000 currency note is likely to be a non-event but it will have a favourable bearing on liquidity, bank deposits and interest rates. The 131-day window to exchange junked 2000 rupee currency notes opened on Tuesday with a mixed bag of small queues and confusion at some banks over the requirement of officially valid identity cards like PAN or Aadhaar, and official forms. Unlike November 2016, when old 500 and 1000 rupee notes - constituting some 86 per cent of the currency in circulation - were banned overnight, resulting in sarpantine ques outside bank branches across the country, this time no crowding is being witnessed. The SBI's research report 'Ecowrap' expects that almost the entire amount of Rs 3.6 lakh crore in the form of Rs 2000 will come back to the banking system (the report assumes 10-15 per cent of the total Rs 2000 notes are in currency chests). "Even though the impact of Rs 2000 rupee note withdrawal is a non-event, .

Jet Airways case: NCLAT to pass order on JKC's plea against SBI on May 30

In the Jet Airways case, appellate tribunal NCLAT on Monday said it will pass the order on May 30 on the winning bidder Jalan Kalrock Consortium's plea seeking to restrain lead lender SBI from encashing performance bank guarantees worth Rs 150 crore.
