After the Reserve Bank of India cracked the whip on as many as 12 major industrial enterprises in the first quarter of FY 2017 for unpaid dues, it has now asked lenders to act on as many as 28 more companies categorized as Non Performing Assets. The second list of companies includes names of major players in the metal industry such as Jayaswal Neco Industries, Visa Steel, Uttam Galva Steels, etc.
According to information the banking regulator had asked lenders to resolve the 28 accounts, which reportedly account for over INR 4 trillion in dues collectively, before December 13.
Efforts have been taken by a few companies to restructure the debt and according to media reports as many as 6 companies have been able to assure lenders of their potential to pay back dues. However, no confirmation in this regard has yet been released by any of the lenders.
The Banking Regulator had sternly asked lenders to either resolve the debt or refer the enlisted 28 companies to National Company Law Tribunal. The adjudicating authority would then decide whether proceedings under Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code are to be imitated against NPAs or not.
