New Delhi: The Reserve Bank of India in exercise of its powers under section 45L(1)(b) of the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934, directed JM Financial Products Limited (JMFPL or ‘the company’) to cease, with immediate effect, from doing any form of financing against shares and debentures, including sanction and disbursal of loans against Initial Public Offering (IPO) of shares as well as against subscription to debentures.
The Company shall, however, continue to service its existing loan accounts through the usual collection and recovery process.
This action is necessitated due to certain serious deficiencies observed for loans sanctioned by the company for IPO financing as well as NCD subscriptions. The RBI carried out a limited review of the books of the company based on the information shared by the Securities and Board of Exchange.
