Ten banks reduced non-performing assets in Q4

Ten banks within the Nifty500 index, including SBI and Bank of Baroda, saw a decrease in non-performing assets (NPAs) during the March 2025 quarter. This indicates improved financial health for these institutions. SBI's net NPA declined to 0.47%, while Bank of Baroda's dropped to 0.58%. Canara Bank also reported a significant fall to 0.70%. AU Small Finance Bank and others also saw similar improvements in their NPA figures. The decline in NPAs, representing loans unlikely to be repaid, suggests a strengthening of the banking sector's financial stability as the Q4 FY25 results season concludes.
