New Delhi: IndusInd Bank on Tuesday said it has received a communication from the Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO) seeking information as part of an investigation into the bank’s affairs under the Companies Act, 2013.
In a regulatory filing, the private sector lender said the letter from SFIO is dated December 23, 2025, and relates to an investigation initiated under Section 212 of the Companies Act.
The disclosure follows the bank’s earlier intimation on December 18, when it informed exchanges that certain matters — including accounting of internal derivative trades, unsubstantiated balances in “other assets” and “other liabilities” accounts, and issues related to microfinance interest and fee income — had been reported to SFIO on June 2, 2025.
At the time, IndusInd Bank had said SFIO had held a telephonic discussion with bank officials and that a formal written communication was awaited. The bank has now confirmed receipt of the letter seeking relevant information.
“The bank continues to give full cooperation and support to the law enforcement agencies,” IndusInd Bank said in the filing.
The development comes amid heightened regulatory scrutiny of accounting practices and disclosures in the banking sector. IndusInd Bank said the information has also been made available on its website, in line with disclosure requirements under the Sebi (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.
Shares of IndusInd Bank were trading on both NSE and BSE at the time of the disclosure.
