Impact on traders and NRIs
A big businessman of Nagpur has also been accused of misuse of funds.

‘Professional Investor’ tag of
The investigation also revealed that the bank allegedly fraudulently changed the eligibility of investors to avoid regulations. Selling AT-1 bonds to retail investors is prohibited in India, so officials reportedly called investors on paper as ‘professional investors’ (whose investable assets exceed $1 million) so that these complex bonds could be sold.
Misuse of fixed deposit
One of the serious allegations in the complaints made in the Nagpur EOW is that HDFC Bank officials prematurely liquidated the fixed deposits of investors without their consent and used that money to buy these risky AT-1 bonds. Investors claim they were lured with 10-13% returns and were not fully informed about the risks.
