2. Introduction
NPA. The three letters Strike terror in banking sector and
business circle today. NPA is short form of “Non Performing
Asset”. The dreaded NPA rule says simply this: when interest
or other due to a bank remains unpaid for more than 90 days,
the entire bank loan automatically turns a non performing
asset. The recovery of loan has always been problem for banks
and financial institution. To come out of these first we need to
think is it possible to avoid NPA, no cannot be then left is to
look after the factor responsible for it and managing those
factors.
2.1 Definitions:
An asset, including a leased asset, becomes non-
performing when it ceases to generate income for the bank.
A ‘non-performing asset’ (NPA) was defined as a credit facility
in respect of which the interest and/ or instalment of principal
has remained ‘past due’ for a specified period of time.
With a view to moving towards international best practices
and to ensure greater transparency, it has been decided to
adopt the ‘90 days’ overdue’ norm for identification of NPAs,
from the year ending March 31, 2004. Accordingly, with effect
from March 31, 2004, a non-performing asset (NPA) shall be a
loan or an advance where;
However lending also carries credit risk, which arises from the
failure of borrower to fulfill its contractual obligations either
during the course of a transaction or on a future obligation.
17
2.5 FACTORS FOR RISE IN NPAs
Willful Defaults
18
There are borrowers who are able to pay back loans but
are intentionally withdrawing it. These groups of people
should be identified and proper measures should be taken
in order to get back the money extended to them as
advances and loans.
Natural calamities
Industrial sickness
Lack of demand
With every new govt. banking sector gets new policies for its operation. Thus
it has to cope with the changing principles and policies for the regulation of
the rising of NPAs.
i. Principles of safety :-
Inappropriate technology
20
Improper SWOT analysis
Managerial deficiencies
1. Marketability
2. Acceptability
21
3. Safety
4. Transferability.
Re loaning process
‘Overdue’:
Any amount due to the bank under any credit
facility is ‘overdue’ if it is not paid on the due date fixed by the
bank.
23
2.7 Types of NPA
A] Gross NPA
B] Net NPA
A] Gross NPA:
Gross NPAs are the sum total of all loan assets that are
classified as NPAs as per RBI guidelines as on Balance Sheet
date. Gross NPA reflects the quality of the loans made
by banks. It consists of all the non-standard assets like as
sub-standard, doubtful, and loss assets.
It can be calculated with the help of following ratio:
B] Net NPA:
Net NPAs are those type of NPAs in which the bank has
deducted the provision regarding NPAs. Net NPA shows the
actual burden of banks. Since in India, bank balance sheets
contain a huge amount of NPAs and the process of recovery
and write off of loans is very time consuming, the provisions
the banks have to make against the NPAs according to the
central bank guidelines, are quite significant. That is why the
difference between gross and net NPA is quite high.
It can be calculated by following

4. Asset Classification
Categories of NPAs
Standard Assets:
Standard assets are the ones in which the bank is receiving
interest as well as the principal amount of the loan regularly
from the customer. Here it is also very important that in this
case the arrears of interest and the principal amount of loan do
not exceed 90 days at the end of financial year. If asset fails to
be in category of standard asset that is amount due more than
90 days then it is NPA and NPAs are further need to classify in
sub categories.
Banks are required to classify non-
performing assets further into the following three categories
based on the period for which the asset has remained non-
performing and the reliability of the dues:
( 1 ) Sub-standard Assets
( 2 ) Doubtful Assets
( 3 ) Loss Assets
( 1 ) Sub-standard Assets:--
With effect from 31 March 2005, a substandard asset would be
one, which has remained NPA for a period less than or equal to
12 month. The following features are exhibited by
substandard assets: the current net worth of the borrowers /
guarantor or the current market value of the security charged
is not enough to ensure recovery of the dues to the banks in
full; and the asset has well-defined credit weaknesses that
jeopardise the liquidation of the debt and are characterised by
the distinct possibility that the banks will sustain some loss, if
deficiencies are not corrected.
30
( 2 ) Doubtful Assets:--
A loan classified as doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in
assets that were classified as sub-standard, with the added
characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or
liquidation in full, – on the basis of currently known facts,
conditions and values – highly questionable and improbable.
With effect from March 31, 2005, an asset would be classified
as doubtful if it remained in the sub-standard category for 12
months.
( 3 ) Loss Assets:--
A loss asset is one which considered uncollectible and of such
little value that its continuance as a bankable asset is not
warranted- although there may be some salvage or recovery
value. Also, these assets would have been identified as ‘loss
assets’ by the bank or internal or external auditors or the RBI
inspection but the amount would not have been written-off
wholly.
Provisioning Norms
General
➢ In order to narrow down the divergences and ensure
adequate provisioning by banks, it was suggested that a
bank's statutory auditors, if they so desire, could have a
dialogue with RBI's Regional Office/ inspectors who
carried out the bank's inspection during the previous year
with regard to the accounts contributing to the difference.
Loss assets:
The entire asset should be written off. If the assets are
permitted to remain in the books for any reason, 100 percent
of the outstanding should be provided for.
Doubtful assets:
Up to one year 20
32
NPAs as on March 31, 31,2005.
2004. 75% effect from
(2)Advances classified as March 31, 2006.
‘doubtful’ more than 100% with effect
three years on or after from March 31,
April 1, 2004. 2007.
Sub-standard assets:
Standard assets:
33
➢ From the year ending 31.03.2000, the banks should make
a general provision of a minimum of 0.40 percent on
standard assets on global loan portfolio basis.
Floating provisions:
Sub-standard assets : -
10 percent of the 'net book value'.
Doubtful assets :-
100 percent of the extent to which the finance is not secured
by the realisable value of the leased asset. Realisable value to
be estimated on a realistic basis. In addition to the above
provision, the following provision on the net book value of
the secured portion should be made, depending upon the
period for which asset has been doubtful:
Period %age of
provision
Up to one year 20
Loss assets :-
The entire asset should be written-off. If for any reason, an
asset is allowed to remain in books, 100 percent of the sum of
the net investment in the lease and the unrealised portion of
finance income net of finance charge component should be
provided for. (‘Net book value')

CHAPTER-5
- Impact of NPA
4.Impact of NPA
Profitability:-
NPA means booking of money in terms of bad
asset, which occurred due to wrong choice of client. Because of
the money getting blocked the prodigality of bank decreases
not only by the amount of NPA but NPA lead to opportunity
37
cost also as that much of profit invested in some return
earning project/asset. So NPA doesn’t affect current profit but
also future stream of profit, which may lead to loss of some
long-term beneficial opportunity. Another impact of reduction
in profitability is low ROI (return on investment), which
adversely affect current earning of bank.
Liquidity:-
Money is getting blocked, decreased profit lead to lack of
enough cash at hand which lead to borrowing money for
shot\rtes period of time which lead to additional cost to the
company. Difficulty in operating the functions of bank is
another cause of NPA due to lack of money. Routine payments
and dues.
Involvement of management:-
Time and efforts of management is another indirect cost which
bank has to bear due to NPA. Time and efforts of management
in handling and managing NPA would have diverted to some
fruitful activities, which would have given good returns. Now
day’s banks have special employees to deal and handle NPAs,
which is additional cost to the bank.
Credit loss:-
Bank is facing problem of NPA then it adversely affect the
value of bank in terms of market credit. It will lose it’s goodwill
and brand image and credit which have negative impact to the
people who are putting their money in the banks.
(4) Others:
✔ Changes in Government policies.
✔ Death of borrower.
✔ Competition in the market.

Timeliness and Adequacy of response:-
Management Effectiveness:-
Multiple Financing:-

CHAPTER-6
Tools For recovery of npa
43
Once NPA occurred, one must come out of it or it should be
managed in most efficient manner. Legal ways and means are
there to overcome and manage NPAs. We will look into each
one of it.
Lok Adalat:
Lok Adalat institutions help banks to settle disputes involving
account in “doubtful” and “loss” category, with outstanding
balance of Rs.5 lakh for compromise settlement under Lok
Adalat. Debt recovery tribunals have been empowered to
organize Lok Adalat to decide on cases of NPAs of Rs. 10 lakh
and above. This mechanism has proved to be quite effective
for speedy justice and recovery of small loans. The progress
through this channel is expected to pick up in the coming
years.
6.7 General:
48
6.8 Income recognition
There will be no change in the existing instructions
on income recognition. Consequently, banks should not
recognise income on accrual basis in respect of the projects
even though the asset is classified as a standard asset if the
asset is a "non performing asset" in terms of the extant
instructions. In other words, while the accounts of the project
may be classified as a standard asset, banks shall recognise
income in such accounts only on realisation on cash basis if the
asset has otherwise become ‘non performing’ as per the extant
delinquency norm of 180 days. The delinquency norm would
become 90 days with effect from 31 March 2004.
Consequently, banks, which have wrongly
recognised income in the past, should reverse the interest if it
was recognised as income during the current year or make a
provision for an equivalent amount if it was recognised as
income in the previous year(s). As regards the regulatory
treatment of income recognised as ‘funded interest’ and
‘conversion into equity, debentures or any other instrument’
banks should adopt the following:
6.9.2. Provisioning
While there will be no change in the extant norms on
provisioning for NPAs, banks which are already holding
provisions against some of the accounts, which may now be
classified as ‘standard’, shall continue to hold the provisions
and shall not reverse the same.
50
CHAPTER-7
Special Cases
7. Special Cases
7.1.1. Accounts with temporary deficiencies:
The classification of an asset as NPA should be
based on the record of recovery. Bank should not classify an
advance account as NPA merely due to the existence of some
deficiencies which are temporary in nature such as non-
availability of adequate drawing power based on the latest
51
available stock statement, balance outstanding exceeding the
limit temporarily, non-submission of stock statements and non-
renewal of the limits on the due date, etc. In the matter of
classification of accounts with such deficiencies banks may
follow the following guidelines:
52
7.1.3Asset Classification to be borrower-wise and not facility-wise
It is difficult to envisage a situation when only
one facility to a borrower becomes a problem credit and not
others. Therefore, all the facilities granted by a bank to a
borrower will have to be treated as NPA and not the particular
facility or part thereof which has become irregular. If the debits
arising out of devolvement of letters of credit or invoked
guarantees are parked in a separate account, the balance
outstanding in that account also should be treated as a part of
the borrower’s principal operating account for the purpose of
application of prudential norms on income recognition, asset
classification and provisioning.
7.1.4. Accounts where there is erosion in the value of security
A NPA need not go through the various stages of classification
in cases of serious credit impairment and such assets should
be straightaway classified as doubtful or loss asset as
appropriate. Erosion in the value of security can be reckoned
as significant when the realizable value of the security is less
than 50 per cent of the value assessed by the bank or
accepted by RBI at the time of last inspection, as the case may
be. Such NPAs may be straightaway classified under doubtful
category and provisioning should be made as applicable to
doubtful assets.
If the realizable value of the security, as
assessed by the bank/ approved values/ RBI is less than 10 per
cent of the outstanding in the borrower accounts, the
existence of security should be ignored and the asset should
be straightaway classified as loss asset. It may be either
written off or fully provided for by the bank.
53
7.1.6 Advances against Term Deposits, NSCs, KVP/IVP, etc.:
Advances against term deposits, NSCs eligible for surrender,
IVPs, KVPs and life policies need not be treated as NPAs.
Advances against gold ornaments, government securities and
all other securities are not covered by this exemption.
55
institution observes that the asset has turned NPA on the basis
of the record of recovery, it should
be classified accordingly. The lending institution should not
recognize income on accrual basis and account for the same
only when it is paid by the borrower/ taking over institution (if
the arrangement so provides). The lending institution should
also make provisions against any asset turning into NPA
pending its takeover by taking over institution. As and when
the asset is taken over by the taking over institution, the
corresponding provisions could be reversed. However, the
taking over institution, on taking over such assets, should
make provisions treating the account as NPA from the actual
date of it becoming NPA even though the account was not in
its books as on that date.
57
➢ Unlocking capital for the banking system and the
economy
The primary objective of Arcil is to expedite recovery of the
amounts locked in NPAs of lenders and thereby recycling
capital. Arcil thus, provides relief to the banking system by
managing NPAs and help them concentrate on core banking
activities thereby enhancing shareholders value.

CHAPTER-8
Data analysis and
interpretation
7. ANALYSIS
For the purpose of analysis and comparison between Public
and private sector banks, We have taken five banks from both
sectors to compare the non-performing assets of banks. For
understanding we further bifurcate the non-performing assets
in priority sector and non-priority sector, gross NPA and net
NPA in percentage as well as in rupees, deposit – investment –
advances.
59
sector ICICI Bank is the highest deposit-investment-advances
figure in rupees crore, second is HDFC Bank and KOTAK Bank
has least figure.
(Rs in crore)
61
Comparison between ICICI BANK AND PUNJAB NATIONAL BANK in term of
deposit-investment-advances:-
62
There are two concepts related to non-performing assets a)
gross and b) net. Gross refers to all NPAs on a bank’s balance
sheet irrespective of the provisions made. It consists of all the
non-standard assets, viz. Substandard, doubtful, and loss
assets. A loan asset is classified as ‘ substandard” if it remains
NPA up to a period of 18 months; “ doubtful” if it remains NPA
for more than 18 months; and loss, without any waiting
period, where the dues are considered not collectible or
marginally collectible.
Net NPA is gross NPA less provisions. Since in India, bank
balance sheets contains a huge amount of NPAs and the
process of recovery and write off of loans is very time
consuming, the provisions the banks have to make against the
NPA according to the central bank guidelines, are quite
significant.
Here, we can see that there are huge differences between
gross and net NPA. While gross NPA reflects the quality
of the loans made by banks, net NPA shows the actual
burden of banks. The requirements for provisions are:
100% for loss assets
100% of the unsecured portion plus 20-50% of the
secured portion, depending on the period for which the
account has remained in the doubtful category
10% general provision on the outstanding balance under
the substandard category.
Here, there are gross and net NPA data for 2007-08 and 2008-
09 we taken for comparison among banks. These data are NPA
AS PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL ASSETS. As we discuss earlier that
gross NPA reflects the quality of the loans made by banks.
Among all the ten banks Dena Banks has highest gross NPA as
a percentage of total assets in the year 2007-08 and also net
NPA. Punjab National Bank shows huge difference between
gross and net NPA. There is an almost same figure between
BOI and BOB.
63
Gross NPA and Net NPA Of different Public Sector banks
in the year 2007-08
Comparison of GROSS NPA with all banks for the year 2007-
08. The growing NPAs affect the health of banks, profitability
and efficiency. In the long run, it eats up the net worth of the
banks. We can say that NPA is not a healthy sign for financial
institutions. Here we take all the ten banks gross NPA together
for better understanding. Average of these ten banks gross
NPAs is 1.29 as percentage of total assets. So if we compare in
private sector banks AXIS and HDFC Bank are below average of
all banks and in public sector BOB and BOI. Average of these
five private sector banks gross NPA is 1.25 and average of
public sector banks is 1.33. Which is higher in compare of
private sector banks.
Comparison of NET NPA with all banks for the year 2007-08.
Average of these ten bank’s net NPA is 0.56. And in the public
sector banks all these five banks are below this. But in private
sector banks there are three banks are above average. The
difference between private and public banks average is also
vast. Private sector banks net NPA average is 0.71 and in
public sector banks it is 0.41 as percentage of total assets. As
we know that net NPA shows actual burden of banks. IndusInd
bank has highest net NPA figure and HDFC Bank has lowest in
comparison.
65
PRIORITY –NON PRIORITY SECTOR
When we further bifurcate NPA in priority sector and Non
priority sector. Agriculture + small + others are priority sector.
In private sector ICICI Bank has the highest NPA with compare
to other private sector banks. Around 72% of NPA in priority
sector and around 78% in non-priority sector. We can see that
in private sector banks have more NPA in non-priority sector
than priority sector.
66
BANK PRIORITY SECTOR NPA

BOB 5469 350
BOI 3269 325
DENA 1160 106
PNB 3772 443
UBI 1924 197
Now, when we compare the all public sector and private sector
banks on priority and non-priority sector the figures are really
shocking. Because in compare of private sector banks, public
sector banks numbers are very large.
