MUMBAI: The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Thursday asked banks to double down efforts to maximise recovery from written-off accounts. This was after data released to Parliament showed that banks have written off bad loans worth Rs 14.56 lakh crore in the last nine financial years, starting 2014-15.
“We would like the bank managements to have a board-approved policy for write-off and also a follow-up to maximise recovery from these accounts for which we are engaging with bank managements,” deputy governor Swaminathan J said.
