IndusInd Bank (NSE:INDUSINDBK, BOM:532187) said it has not received any communication from government or regulatory authorities regarding a whistleblower complaint mentioned in recent media reports, according to a Wednesday filing on Indian bourses.
The clarification came after a media report suggested that a whistleblower complaint had been sent to the Prime Minister's Office and multiple regulators, including the Reserve Bank of India, the Serious Fraud Investigation Office, and the National Financial Reporting Authority. The report alleged insider trading, governance lapses, and issues in forensic and audit reviews following a 20-billion-rupee derivatives discrepancy.
The bank said it has previously examined similar issues and has taken appropriate actions in line with its internal policies and regulatory requirements. It added that certain matters have also been proactively reported to relevant authorities and it continues to cooperate with regulators.
