The private lender Yes Bank was put under a moratorium on late Thursday, with the RBI capping deposit withdrawals at Rs 50,000 per account for a month and superseding its board.
Yes Bank will not be able to grant or renew any loan or advance, make any investment, incur any liability or agree to disburse any payment during the period.
The regulatory actions, undertaken by the RBI and the government, came hours after finance ministry sources confirmed that SBI was directed to bail out the troubled lender.
Moratorium on withdrawal of money by depositors of Yes Bank is not the first of its kind. In the last 20 years, eight banks have faced this process.
