Retail stress continues to build up on banks’ books, with lenders putting up about Rs 15,000 crore of fresh non-performing assets (NPAs) for sale to asset reconstruction companies (ARCs) in the quarter ended June. The bulk of the fresh NPAs came from the retail segment, while about one-fifth comprised loans to smaller corporate accounts, such as micro, small, and medium enterprises. Including these new additions, the total stock of bad loans currently available for acquisition by ARCs stood at Rs 50,000 crore.
