Fraud classification under the RBI Fraud Master Circular, 2024 requires a reasoned order addressing the relevant facts, the noticee's submissions and the reasons for rejecting them. An order that merely reproduces forensic-audit observations and the show-cause notice, without dealing with defences, reflects non-application of mind and cannot sustain classification.
