Abstract

Non-performing assets is one of the major concerns for banks in India. NPAs reflect the performance of banks. A high level of NPAs suggests high probability of a large number of credit defaults that affect the profitability and net-worth of banks and also erodes the value of the asset. The NPAs growth involves the necessity of provisions, which reduces the overall profits and shareholders’ value. The problem of NPAs is not only affecting the banks but also the whole economy. In fact high level of NPAs in Indian banks is nothing but a reflection of the state of health of the industry and trade. The Indian banking sector is facing a serious problem of NPAs. The extent of NPAs is comparatively higher in public sectors banks. Various steps have been taken by government to reduce the NPAs. It is highly impossible to have zero percentage NPAs. But at least Indian banks can try competing with foreign banks to maintain international standard. Hence, an attempt is made empirically to evaluate how NPAs in banks are influenced by their advancing pattern and macro economic factors in the country.
