This page is for general information. It is not legal, tax or investment advice. Every NPA / SARFAESI / DRT matter is fact-specific — speak to a qualified advisor before acting.
Home loan / LAP: 65–85% of principal recovery for fully secured accounts. Business / working-capital (CC / OD): 45–65% for viable, 25–40% for doubtful. Personal / credit card (unsecured): 20–45% depending on age and lender policy. Vehicle loan: 55–75% for repossessable, 30–50% for irrecoverable. Bands are indicative; exact recovery depends on collateral coverage and lender policy.
SBI: circle SARB delegated up to ₹5 Cr, above which the Zonal Committee reviews. Punjab National Bank: similar structure; HDFC Bank: private banks (HDFC/ICICI/Axis) run through recovery agencies for retail products and dedicated recovery vertical for MSME/mid-corporate.
Home loan: settlement below outstanding requires clean encumbrance record — Registrar of Assurances at Shimla takes 15–30 days for release deed. Credit card / personal: recovery agents' quick-close offers often carry hidden 'settled' reporting; get the reporting term in writing. Business loan (cash credit): stock statement discrepancies are the #1 reason for wilful-defaulter classification — clean the statement history first.
