IndusInd Bank has transitioned from reporting discrepancies in its derivatives portfolio to suspecting fraud, involving senior officials and former key managerial personnel.
Both the board and auditors have hinted at potential fraud offenses without taking direct accountability, leading to the resignation of the CEO and deputy CEO.
Accounting irregularities include improper derivatives transactions, misclassification of microfinance accounts, unsubstantiated balances, and unresolved past accounting issues.
The bank is now seeking a new CEO, while the RBI has not yet intervened as seen in previous banking crises, leaving the future direction of IndusInd Bank uncertain.
