jiwateshwar 18 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Though it has long been debated on this forum whether private banks could be brought under the purview of RTI Act or not using the RBI as a possible route, a consensus was never arrived at. Something new I noticed while going through the latest CIC decisions was that certain appeals and complaints are now being dismissed at the scrutiny level itself (never noticed this before). Some of the important companies declared outside the purview of RTI in these dismissed appeals/complaionts are Case No. CIC/AT/C/2008/00391Dated: 3.09.2008 Complainant: Shri Harpreet Singh Respondent: M/s. ICICI Prudential Life Insurance Company Limited Case No. CIC/AT/C/2008/00386 Dated: 3.09.2008 Complainant: Shri Satbir Singh Respondent: M/s. The Mahindra Finance Limited Case No. CIC/AT/C/2008/00320 Dated: 3.09.2008 Complainant: Shri Dharamveer Sharma Respondent: M/s. The Kotak Mahindra Life Insurance Co. Ltd. Case No. CIC/AT/C/2008/00411 Dated: 3.09.2008 Complainant: Smt. M. Lalitha Respondent: M/s. Aviva Life Insurance Co. Limited Case No. CIC/AT/C/2008/00452 Dated: 3.09.2008 Complainant: Smt. Prabha Agarwal Respondent: M/s. India bulls Securities Limited Case No. CIC/AT/C/2008/00317 Dated: 3.09.2008 Complainant: Shri Kedar Singh Respondent: M/s. ICICI Prudential Lombard General Insurance Company Limited Case No. CIC/AT/C/2008/00233 Dated: 3.09.2008 Complainant: Shri C.V. Bijubhai Respondent: M/s. The Mahavir Finance Limited Case No. CIC/AT/A/2008/00659 Dated: 3.09.2008 Appellant: Shri Hitesh Gopal Merani Respondent: M/s. Kotak Mahindra Old Mutual Life Insurance Ltd. I think this shall really help in speeding up the process of 2nd appeal hearings as the number of cases pending would be reduced greatly. Has this been done before or is it something new?? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moderators jps50 1,580 Posted September 8, 2008 Moderators Share Posted September 8, 2008 IC is correct. In fact requestors of info should have sought info from regulatory bodies like IRDA in case of Insurance pvt sector companies, SEBI [ mutual funds] or RBI [finance cos] under section 2.f 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The discussions were very clear that the private bodies cannot be reached directly, except through the public regulatory institutions. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
