According to a reply sent to a question through Right to Information Act, RBI does not have any information about "heavy penalties" and "extra-ordinary interest rates" imposed by banks on credit card defaults. The RBI, however, said that banks have been advised through a circular dated May 7, 2007 to prescribe a maximum ceiling rate of interest, including processing and other charges, in respect of small value personal loans and loans similar in nature, the guidelines of which are applicable to credit card dues also.
