Abstract

But now a day, the problem of non-performing assets is hampering them in their business growth. The level of   Non-performing assets (NPAs) is rising in Indian banking industry especially in Public sector banks. This problem is not new for banks but it is rapidly affecting the financial health of banks. According to report of Reserve Bank of India (RBI), the gross Non-Performing Assets (NPAs) of Public Sector Banks (PSBs) are just under Rs. 4 lakh crore in October to December 2017. They together account for 90% of such bad apples in the country's banking portfolio. The share of net NPAs is even higher at 92% of the total bad loans reported so far in the banking system.
