The Reserve Bank of India cancelled the certificate of registrations of as many as 31 Non-Banking Finance Companies (NBFCs) for unspecified reasons.
A majority of 27 of the 31 companies which lost their licences are from West Bengal. It is followed by Uttar Pradesh, which has seen four NBFC licence cancellations.
The NBFC sector is facing liquidity troubles following the non-payment of dues by the troubled infra lender IL&FS since late August of this year.
