Assocham recommends measures to boost economy’s growth, reduce banks NPAs

06 May 2014 Evaluate

In order to revive the economic growth and reduce bad loans of banks, Industry body Assocham has suggested measures such as developing a strong corporate bond market, speeding up the implementation of infrastructure projects and a single-window clearance mechanism.

Expressing concerns over the deteriorating asset quality of banks, Assocham stated that it has become imperative to bring down non-performing assets (NPAs) of banks as the huge portfolio of restructured assets and NPAs has been exerting huge pressure on the country's financial system.  Increasing number of corporate debt restructuring cases is an indication of the growing difficulties faced by companies in meeting their financial obligations, it added. NPAs of state-owned banks rose 28.5 percent to Rs 2.36 lakh crore in September 2013 from Rs 1.83 lakh crore in March last year. Prevailing economic slowdown coupled with high interest rates in order to tame the inflation has led to a sharp deterioration in asset quality for the banking sector.

Regarding the infrastructure sector, Industry chamber emphasized need to sort out the issues related with the big infrastructure projects like constraints in mobilisation of financial resources, gestation lags, land acquisition issues and hurdles in obtaining statutory clearances.  Assocham also suggested the government to develop a strong and vibrant corporate bond market which could help in widening the scope of infrastructure funding. It also recommended a single-window clearance system with specific guidelines and time-bound approvals to fast track the implementation of mega infrastructure projects.
