Bank of Maharashtra fell 1.08% to Rs 23 after the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) imposed a monetary penalty of Rs 2 crore on the state-owned bank.

"Bank has taken necessary preventive measure / comprehensive actions to avoid such recurrence in the future," Bank of Maharashtra said in a BSE filing made after market hours yesterday.
