LIC Chairman T S Vijayan on Friday said that V K Sharma will take over as the CEO of its housing finance arm, early next week. Sharma has been chosen to replace LIC Housing Finance CEO Ramachandran Nair, who was arrested by the CBI on charges of involvement in housing-loan bribery case on Wednesday.
Nine days after their arrest in a cross-country housing loan scam, a special CBI court on Friday granted bail to all the eight accused, including LIC Housing Finance CEO Ramchandran Nair, after observing that their custody is not required further.
The plan panel on Thursday termed the housing finance racket, involving the chief of LIC Housing Finance and several other officials of PSU banks, as a "very small" incident as far as banking system as a whole was concerned.
