In the facts and circumstances of the case, I am of the view that the said penalty is commensurate with the default committed by the Noticee," said the order by Prasant Mahapatra, the adjudicating officer in the matter of non-compliance by the SBI.Similarly, penalties of the same amount were imposed on the LIC and the BoB, through separate orders.The SEBI said that the three would have to pay the penalty within 45 days from the date of receipt of the order.( With inputs from IANS )
