      One way is to bring such false information to the notice of the President (i.e., the concerned department / ministry) so that administrative or departmental action can be taken against the financial institution under the relevant rules / regulations.

      Secondly, there is an offence under Section 182 of IPC ["False information, with intent to cause public servant to use his lawful power to the injury of another person"] which might perhaps have been committed while giving such false information, depending on detailed facts of your case. Because this is a non-cognizable offence, its report can be lodged in the Magistrate court in the form of a private complaint.
