Summary: NEDUMPILLI FINANCE COMPANY LIMITED v. STATE OF KERALA Court: Supreme Court of India Citation: C.A. No. 005233/2012 Date: May 10, 2022 Judges: Hemant Gupta & V. Ramasubramanian, JJ. Decision The Supreme Court held that NBFCs registered under Chapter III-B of the RBI Act, 1934 are not subject to regulation under State Money Lenders Acts (Kerala Money Lenders Act, 1958 and Gujarat Money Lenders Act, 2011). All NBFC appeals against Kerala High Court judgments were allowed, while Gujarat State appeals were dismissed. Key Findings 1. Chapter III-B is a Complete Code: The RBI Act comprehensively regulates NBFCs from registration through winding-up, covering capital adequacy, interest rates, lending practices, and borrower protection through Master Circulars and Directions. 2. Constitutional Jurisdiction: The RBI Act falls under Union List entries (38, 43, 45), while State Money Lenders Acts fall under State List Entry 30—there is no concurrent jurisdiction issue under Article 254. 3. Article 246(1) Applies: Parliament has exclusive power over matters in List I, making State enactments inapplicable to RBI-regulated NBFCs despite their surface applicability to "money lenders." 4. Doctrine of Eclipse: Even if State Acts were valid when enacted, the parliamentary enactment casting a "shadow" renders them inapplicable to RBI-regulated entities. 5. Section 45-Q Override: Chapter III-B explicitly overrides conflicting provisions in other laws, preventing parallel state regulation.
