Non-Performing Assets in Indian Banking Sector: An Analytical and Comparative Study Between Public and Private Sector Banks
Abstract
Nowadays, Indian banking sector faces a number of serious issues regarding the increasing level of Non-
Performing Assets (NPAs). The Non-Performing Assets have a direct impact on the profitability as well as
the liquidity of banks. In India the concept of NPA has emerged after reforms in the financial sector were
introduced on the recommendation of the Narsimham Committee (1991). Money related framework
assumes a crucial job in the improvement of an economy which is the key factor towards a nation’s
improvement. It goes about as a middle person between streams of reserve for the individuals who spare as
a piece of salary and those putting resources into profitable resources. Banking establishments have the
significant job of tolerating long haul store and loaning cash to the borrowers. This research paper aims at
identifying which sector (Public/Private) has higher rate of NPA in Indian banking sector and also the paper
suggests about the remedial measures to overcome NPAs. The study is conducted purely based on
secondary sources of data such as articles, newspapers, magazines, etc.
Introduction
Banking is considered as the heart of every country’s economy. Any issue relating
to the banking sector will adversely affect the economy of a country. Nowadays,
Indian banking sector faces a number of serious issues regarding the increasing
level of Non-Performing Assets (NPAs). A Non-Performing Asset is defined as a
credit facility in respect of which the interest and/or installment of principle has
remained “past due” for a specific period of time (90 days. March 2004 onwards).
Non-Performing Asset means an asset of a borrower, which has been classified as
standard, sub-standard, loss or doubtful asset with respect to the guidelines of asset
classification. NPAs directly affect the liquidity, profitability and the overall
survival of banks. The main cause of NPA is when the customer makes any default
in payment of loan amount, which he has already been taken from the bank. The

Review of Literature
Standard Asset Assets which has remained NPA for a period not exactly or equivalent to
a year.
Loss Asset Loss Asset is viewed as uncollectible and of such little worth that its
duration as a bankable resource isn't justified, in spite of the fact that there
might be some rescue or recuperation esteem.
1. Reddy (2004) basically analyzed the different issues relating to terms of credit
of Indian banks. In this unique situation, it was seen that 'the component of intensity
doesn't matter to the criminal behavior.
2. Chaudhury and Singh (2014) the scientists point to the effect of monetary
changes in the nation on the advantage nature of the banks. As far as gathering
savvy results, the creators locate a critical distinction in their nature of credits. In
any case, a positive pattern reflected through declining NPA is seen.
3. Ministry (2014) "The account service has put the loaning of state-run banks
under close watch after a spike in non-performing resources (NPAs) that has
constrained a considerable lot of them to hinder credit."
4. Shah R.( 2014) Rashesh Shah, Chairman and CEO, Edelweiss Group, "Due
to high loan costs, swelling and NPA issues, the whole financial industry is under
worry from a speculator's perspective, yet there are loads of private area banks
which are acceptable quality organizations, which will do well as and when this
cycle gets over".

From the above calculation t, came into conclusion that the Net NPA and Net Profit
of ICICI Bank are positively correlated, so the Non-Performing Assets are more.
By this we can interpret that the repayment of debt by the customers are less.
Findings

ICICI Bank. Detailed analysis was produced using the information gathered
through secondary methods and the kind of derivation was attracted discoveries and
recommendations are given. Based on the investigation directed, it is demonstrated
that in the year 2016-2018 the ICICI bank have higher obligation contrasted with
State Bank of India. Be that as it may, on account of ICICI Bank the connection
between's Net NPA and Net Profit is sure which implies this bank have higher
obligation. Thus, we can presume that while looking at the NPA of the two banks,
the ICICI Bank have higher obligation. Remedial measures ought to be taken to
