Quick answerRBI has excluded State Bank of Indore from the Second Schedule of the RBI Act, 1934, effective August 26, 2010, as it ceased banking operations. This removes its scheduled bank status.
The rule, in the simplest words
How it plays out — a real example

A branch operations officer in Indore would no longer need to report to RBI about their transactions with State Bank of Indore, as it is no longer a scheduled bank. This change is routine and doesn't affect their daily work, but it's an important update to keep in mind. The officer will continue to work with other scheduled banks as usual.

What changed

RBI issued a notification on August 27, 2010, excluding State Bank of Indore from the Second Schedule to the RBI Act, 1934. The exclusion took effect from August 26, 2010, because the bank stopped carrying on banking business. The notification was published in the Gazette of India between September 25 and October 1, 2010.
