India Court Verdicts Trigger Banking and Consumer Refund Waves

The Supreme Court’s AT1 bond ruling sent Yes Bank shares down nearly 4% and prompted Nomura to cut its target price to Rs 18, while the bank’s capital ratio stays above regulatory levels. Meanwhile, Indian consumer courts ordered refunds and compensation in several cases: a Dubai‑based matrimonial service was fined Rs 37,000, an ATM fraud victim received a partial Rs 41,852 refund, an Ahmedabad family was reimbursed Rs 2.5 lakh for lost luggage, and an insurer was ordered to pay Rs 12 lakh for a stolen truck. In arbitration news, Tata Power secured a US$490 million award against Kleros.
