  "account": "On September 22, 2026, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) levied a penalty of ₹2.70 lakh on KLM Axiva Finvest Limited for not following RBI's instructions regarding the 'Auction' procedure. This penalty was awarded under the authority granted by Section 58-G(1)(b) and Section 58-B(5)(aa) of the RBI Act, 1934. The RBI inspected the company's financial status as of March 31, 2025, and found that the company had not paid the surplus amount generated from auctioning pledged gold items, after accounting for outstanding loans, to certain borrowers. This decision was made after reviewing the company's response to a notice, additional information provided, and oral arguments presented during a personal hearing. The RBI's action is solely focused on regulatory compliance and does not comment on the legitimacy of any transactions or agreements between the company and its customers. This penalty does not affect any other potential actions that the RBI might take against the company in the future.",
