Kharcha Pani | Episode 1282 | 23rd February, 2026
In today’s episode of Kharcha Paani, we unpack a shocking banking fraud involving IDFC First Bank, where ₹590 crore allegedly vanished from Haryana government accounts at its Chandigarh branch, triggering a massive probe, forensic audit by KPMG, suspension of staff, regulatory scrutiny by RBI, and a 20% crash in the bank’s share price—we explain step-by-step how the scam came to light, what exactly went wrong, who is under investigation, how fake authorisations and cheques were allegedly used, what the bank’s CEO and RBI said, why the Haryana government has now restricted all its departments to public sector banks, and what this entire episode means for the safety of your money in banks.
