‘Impact in 2017-18 at ?36,694 cr. more than twice seen in previous 2 years, each’

Indian banks reported a total loss of about ?70,000 crore due to frauds during the last three fiscals up to March 2018, the Rajya Sabha was informed on Tuesday.

The extent of loss in fraud cases reported by scheduled commercial banks (SCBs) for 2015-16, 2016-17 and 2017-18 was ?16,409 crore, ?16,652 crore and ?36,694 crore, respectively, Minister of State for Finance Shiv Pratap Shukla said in a written reply quoting RBI data.

‘Gross advances rise’

The Minister said that data of frauds is as per the year of reporting and not the year of occurrence of fraud or sanction of loan or letter of undertaking, which may might be of an earlier period. The Minister also informed the House that gross advances by SCBs increased from ?25.03 lakh crore on March 31, 2008, to ?68.75 lakh crore on March 31, 2014.

On stressed assets, he said the spurt was due to aggressive lending practices, wilful default, loan frauds, corruption in some cases and economic slowdown.

Replying to another question, he said as per RBI data, there were 139 borrowers with aggregate gross NPAs of more than ?1,000 crore.
