The Corporate Affairs Ministry has ordered the Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO) to probe 11 companies allegedly involved in suspicious foreign exchange transactions relating to the Bank of Baroda (BoB) case.
The minister did not name the bank in the written reply.
The government had however mentioned earlier that the BoB case pertains to alleged irregularities in outward foreign remittances.
While replying to a written question, the minister said that no such complaint has been received against private sector banks for unfair trade practices.
The SFIO, which comes under the ministry, has completed investigation in 39 cases in the current financial year.
