I also talked with banks, i think CKYC record was issue due to your old number could be match with unchanged old user no exits in bank account. The second reason, people's had various credit card with many companies had agreement's with banks and non-financial bank credit companies fetch details from your number is registered with CKyc record.
The Govt need to change this system in Ckyc with some bring new rules about updating record.
