Syndicate Bank expects Rs 4,000 crores NPA recovery in FY20
State-owned Syndicate Bank expects to mobilise Rs 4,000 crore from recovery of bad loans during the current fiscal.
New Delhi: State-owned Syndicate Bank expects to mobilise Rs 4,000 crore from recovery of bad loans during the current fiscal.
The recovery is likely from the cases before the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) under Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) and resolution of cases at bank level, including one time settlement, Syndicate Bank Managing Director Mrutyunjay Mahapatra told.
The bank has recovered about Rs 800 crore in the first quarter and the target for the current fiscal is Rs 4,000 crore, he said.
Besides, the bank is likely to get fund from the government during the financial year for pushing up credit growth. "We have requested the government for infusion. The government will decide as to how to be given (it to) the bank" Mahapatra said.
Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman has proposed, in the Union Budget for 2019-20, an allocation of Rs 70,000 crore for public sector banks (PSBs) to improve credit flow in the economy.
During the first quarter ended June 30, Syndicate Bank reported narrowing of its net loss to Rs 980.46 crore due to fall in provisioning for bad assets.
The bank had posted a net loss of Rs 1,281.77 crore in the same quarter previous fiscal. Total income during the June quarter rose to Rs 6,080.69 crore from Rs 5,637.51 crore in the year-ago period.
