The meteoric rise of Yes Bank has been as spectacular as its fall. After getting the banking licence from the RBI in 2004, it raised Rs 355 crore through an IPO in 2005 which was oversubscribed 30 times.

The Wadhawan brothers, who denied any wrongdoing in their dealings with the bank, were supposed to appear before the central agency on Tuesday at its office in south Mumbai.
