According to the RBI report, Indian banks’ NPA declined from 11.18% to 2.1% by the end of 2025/ ਆਰਬੀਆਈ ਦੀ ਰਿਪੋਰਟ ਦੇ ਅਨੁਸਾਰ, 2025 ਦੇ ਅੰਤ ਤੱਕ ਭਾਰਤੀ ਬੈਂਕਾਂ ਦਾ ਐਨਪੀਏ 11.18% ਤੋਂ ਘਟ ਕੇ 2.1% ਹੋ ਗਿਆ।
An RBI report released in late December 2025 confirmed that Indian banks’ Gross Non-Performing Assets (GNPAs) declined to a multi-decade low of 2.1% by end-September 2025, compared to 2.2% in March 2025 and sharply lower than the peak levels of 11–12% recorded around 2018.
The report highlights a sustained improvement in asset quality, continuing the positive trend observed since 2018–19.
Net NPA ratio remained stable and low at 0.5%, indicating improved balance-sheet strength of banks.
The decline in NPAs has been driven by better loan recoveries, upgradations of stressed assets, and lower slippage ratios, reflecting stronger credit discipline and banking sector resilience.
