Sir,
Here are some info regarding PSU
Of the key public sector banks, Central Bank of India leads the list of
banks where stressed ratio is higher than the industry average. It is
followed by UCO Bank and United Bank of India. Rising stressed assets
in the banking system especially in the PSU space raises questions over
their lending practices. While the increase in ratio could be partly due to
slowdown concerns, one cannot rule out lapses by PSU banks when it
comes to assessing the credit quality of the borrower. The United Bank
saga is a case in point. In order to improve the asset quality, PSU banks
will have to tighten their lending criteria. Also, the current issue of rising
troubled loans is because quite a few PSUs have high exposure to
sectors which are affected by slowdown like infrastructure and real
estate. Hence, sectoral caps should be reviewed. If not, the gap between
asset quality of PSU and private banks will widen further.
