Finance Minister asks industry to adopt positive and ethical approach towards NPAs

05 Apr 2016 Evaluate

Concerned over rising cases of wilful default on loans, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley has said that the industry is fighting a battle of creditability and asked to adopt positive and ethical approach towards non-performing assets (NPAs) or bad debts.

FM added that 'When the cycle reverses, the NPAs can also be reversed but the approach of the leaders of the industry will certainly have to be always positive and ethical because it is that approach which is going to add to their credibility. He also said the government has been trying to address the problem of NPAs in sectors like steel, textile, highways and infrastructure, which are on account of economic slowdown.

There are about 7,686 wilful defaulters who owe Rs 66,190 crore to public sector banks. Of these, suits have been filed in 6,816 cases and FIR has been lodged for 1,669 cases. Banks have initiated action under the Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act (Sarfaesi) Act in 584 such cases.

The gross Non Performing Assets (NPAs) of public sector banks (PSBs) increased to Rs 3,61,731 lakh crore  or 7.30 per cent as on December 2015 from Rs 2,67,065 lakh crore or  5.43 per cent as on March 2015.
