So, the matter is both the responsibility of the CBI and of the complainant State Bank of India. In March 2020, SBI had been requested to clarify the first complaint. CBI registered the case almost 18 months after SBI filed a new complaint in August 2020 with clarifications. SBI clarified in the complaint, while the CBI is silent.
An account of ABG Shipyard Limited and ABG International Limited, based in Gujarat, was considered NPA in November 2013 because of poor performance by the company, according to officials of SBI Bank.
