They constitute about 0.1% of the Bank’s credit card portfolio. As an immediate measure, we have blocked these cards and are issuing new ones to the customers. We regret the inconvenience caused. No instance of misuse of a card from this set has been reported to us. However, we assure that the Bank will appropriately compensate a customer in case of any financial loss.”
