PMC Bank Held Property Without Loan Disbursement to Realty Firm
Imagine a bank promised a company money for a loan, using property as collateral.
The bank, however, didn't give the company all the money but still held the property.
According to audits, no more money was given out after 2012, even though interest kept adding up.
The bank kept pretending the loan was okay, even though the company wasn't paying.
Instead of admitting it was a problem, the bank just kept adding the unpaid interest to the total loan amount.
This made the debt seem bigger, and it's like the bank was trying to hide the problem.
PMC Bank allegedly held mortgaged property without disbursing a loan to Prithvi Realtors & Hotels.
Audit reports revealed no loan disbursements after October 31, 2012, despite accruing interest.
The bank issued sanction letters and mortgage deeds for loans without new disbursements.
The bank added accrued interest to the principal, inflating the loan to Rs 87.5 crore.
An officer stated the bank may have been attempting to 'evergreen' the loan.
