According to RBI data presented by Minister of State for Finance Shiv Pratap Shukla in response to a query in Rajya Sabha, over the last four years, the public sector banks recovered only Rs 29,343 crore out of Rs 2.73 lakh crore of bad loans that were written off.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11781\" src=\"http:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2018\/04\/https-pbs-twimg-com-media-dacrrmmuwaaitp3-jpg.jpeg\" alt=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/DaCRrMmUwAAitp3.jpg\" width=\"690\" height=\"663\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2018\/04\/https-pbs-twimg-com-media-dacrrmmuwaaitp3-jpg.jpeg 579w, https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2018\/04\/https-pbs-twimg-com-media-dacrrmmuwaaitp3-jpg-300x289.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2018\/04\/https-pbs-twimg-com-media-dacrrmmuwaaitp3-jpg-437x420.jpeg 437w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 690px) 100vw, 690px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Even though banks have failed to recover the bulk of bad loans, it is important to keep in mind the important distinction between loan write-off and loan waiver. Many on social media have been confused about this and have projected the loan write-off as loan waiver by the banks. A write-off does not mean that the borrower has been given a clean chit. There will be ongoing attempts to recover the balance, including through the system put in place by the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC). The final result of recovery efforts remains to be seen. For now the recovery rate has been 10.77%, which means that more than 89 per cent of the non-performing assets (NPA) written off by state-owned banks during the four-year period could not be recovered during this period.<\/p>\n<h3>Clarification from the Ministry of Corporate Affairs<\/h3>\n<p>Alt News contacted, Corporate Affairs Secretary Injeti Srinivas to get a clarification from him about the discrepancy between the RBI data and what he was quoted by media as saying. He told Alt News in a written response that \u201c<em>I have been misquoted in the media on this matter. What I stated was that, nearly 50% of the NPAs have got referred to the system put in place under IBC<\/em>.\u201d He further clarified that the basis of the 4 lakh crore figure by explaining that <em>\u201cat present cases involving Rs 3.30 lakh crore have been referred to NCLT. In addition to this claims amounting to Rs. 83,000 crore have got settled before admission. Together it exceeds 4 lakh crores<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The tall claim made by BJP via its tweet seems to be an error and it was deleted once the error was realized. The so-called fact checkers of the right-wing who have been waxing eloquent about the difference between loan write-off and loan waiver fell for such an obviously false claim. They believed that Modi government has magically recovered 4 lakh crore out of the total NPA of 9 lakh crore and shared the false information widely on social media. The source of misinformation was <em>The Economic Times<\/em> article that published the IANS report without basic fact-checking. Doubts were raised by <a href=\"http:\/\/indianexpress.com\/article\/business\/banking-and-finance\/insolvency-and-bankruptcy-code-bjp-claims-rs-4-lakh-crore-recovery-rbi-data-tell-a-different-story-5138768\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Indian Express<\/em><\/a>\u00a0and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.firstpost.com\/business\/npa-crisis-loans-worth-rs-2-72-lakh-cr-written-off-since-nda-government-took-over-in-2014-just-rs-29000-cr-recovered-4433627.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Firstpost<\/em><\/a> both of which pointed out the inconsistency with the RBI data.
