IndusInd Bank Shares Fall After Lender Suspects Staff Involvement In Rs 173 Cr Accounting Fraud
Last Updated:
IndusInd, India's fifth-largest private lender by assets, announced in March that it had identified accounting discrepancies in its derivative portfolio.
IndusInd Bank Share Price: IndusInd Bank's shares are in focus after the private lender suspects a staff involvement in a Rs 172.58 crore accounting discrepancy. Along with its q4 results, IndusInd Bank disclosed in the filing that 'the Board is also in the process of taking necessary steps to assess roles and responsibilities and fixing staff accountability as per the extant laws and internal code of conduct, in all the identified irregularities."
The irregularity came to light following investigations by an external professional firm and the bank's Internal Audit Department (IAD).
The IAD submitted its report on May 20, 2025, revealing that Rs. 172.58 crores were mistakenly recorded as fee income in the microfinance business over three quarters ending December 31, 2024. This amount was subsequently reversed in Q4 of FY 24-25, according to the bank's exchange filing.

Mango Prices Crash Across India! King of Fruits Selling At Rs 40–45/kg Amid Record Harvest
Last Updated: Mango prices have fallen significantly this year. Increased supply and early harvesting due to monsoon predictions are the main reasons Mango prices have plunged by up to a third year-on-year in Uttar Pradesh, the largest mango-producing state in the country, due to a surge in supply, reported growers and traders, according to Economic Times. Prices for the popular Dasehri variety, for example, have fallen to Rs 40–45 per kg from Rs 60 per kg last year. 'This year, the mango production in Uttar Pradesh is estimated to be around 35 lakh metric tonnes, as compared to 25 lakh metric tonnes last year. There was 100% flowering of the mango trees, which indicates that the production will be good," said S Insram Ali, president of the Mango Growers Association of India, in a statement to ET. Ali explained to ET that while higher production was a key factor in the price drop, farmers also harvested mangoes early to prevent damage from the early monsoon, as forecast by the Indian Meteorological Department. The department had predicted higher-than-normal monsoon rainfall in the June-September period. 'It is unlikely that prices will go up in the coming weeks," Ali added, as reported by ET. In southern India, Totapuri mangoes grown in Andhra Pradesh's Tirupati and Chittoor districts have also seen prices fall sharply because mango pulp makers have yet to purchase mangoes from farmers, according to ET. Farmers there also plucked mangoes early in anticipation of the monsoon. 'Pulp factories haven't started procurement as they still have leftover stock from last year," said Sudhir Reddy, a mango trader from Tirupati, speaking to ET. In West Bengal, a leading mango-producing state, prices of high-quality mangoes have also plunged—from Rs 80 to Rs 45–50 per kg. 'Production is good this year. Early plucking by the farmers has also resulted in prices falling," said Prasanta Pal, a mango trader from Kolkata, as per ET. In 2024, global mango production reached 25 million metric tonnes (MT), led by India, which accounted for about half of the world's supply, according to ET. China (3.8 million MT) and Indonesia (3.6 million MT) followed as the second and third largest producers, respectively. Uttar Pradesh contributes about 20% of India's mango output.
