RBI imposes monetary penalty on Truhome Finance Limited
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has, by an order dated December 03, 2025,
imposed a monetary penalty of ₹3,10,000/- (Rupees Three Lakh Ten Thousand only)
on Truhome Finance Limited (formerly known as Shriram Housing Finance Limited)
(the company) for non-compliance with certain provisions of the Reserve Bank of
India (Know Your Customer (KYC)) Directions issued by RBI. This penalty has been
imposed in exercise of powers conferred on RBI under Section 52A of the National
Housing Bank Act, 1987.
The statutory inspection of the company was conducted by the National Housing
Bank with reference to its financial position as on March 31, 2024. Based on the
supervisory findings of non-compliance with RBI directions and related
correspondence in that regard, a notice was issued to the company advising it to
show cause as to why penalty should not be imposed on it for its failure to comply
with the said directions.
After considering the company’s reply to the notice, oral submissions made during
the personal hearing and additional submissions made by it, RBI found, inter alia,
that the following charge against the company was sustained, warranting imposition
of monetary penalty:
The company failed to obtain Permanent Account Number (PAN) or equivalent e-
document thereof or Form No. 60 in certain loan accounts.
This action is based on deficiencies in regulatory compliance and is not intended
to pronounce upon the validity of any transaction or agreement entered into by the
company. Further, imposition of this monetary penalty is without prejudice to any
other action that may be initiated by RBI against the company.
