NBFCs' gross NPA ratio rises from 6.1% to 6.3% in Sept: RBI report

Non-bank lenders witnessed stress in their asset quality in the first half of the current fiscal, with gross NPA ratio increasing to 6.3 per cent in September 2019 from 6.1 per cent in March, according to an RBI report. However, the net NPA ratio of non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) remained steady at 3.4 per cent between end-March 2019 and end-September 2019, RBI's Financial Stability Report showed. As at end-September 2019, the capital to risk assets ratio (CRAR) of the NBFC sector stood at 19.5 per cent, lower than 20 per cent as at end-March 2019. The report said while the importance of NBFCs in credit intermediation is growing, the IL&FS episode brought the focus on the asset liability mismatches of non-bank lenders, which poses risks to the sector as well as the financial system as a whole. To address this, the RBI introduced the liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) requirement for all deposit-taking and non-deposit taking NBFCs with an asset size of Rs 5,000 crore and ...
