c) Overdue
Any amount due to the Bank under any facility is overdue if it is not paid on the
due date fixed by the Bank.
1) In the case of temporary overdraft, the outstanding will not be overdue up to
7 days. Hence the temporary overdraft if remaining outstanding for more
than 7 days only should be reported as overdue.
2) in the case of excess over sanctioned limit/drawing power the accounts
become overdue from the date of such excess.
3) in the case of Term loans and loans repayable on demand the instalments
become overdue from the due date of instalments.
4) interest due and charged remaining unadjusted becomes overdue from the
last day of the quarter irrespective of interest charged at monthly intervals.
5) A bill becomes overdue from its due date. In case of sight bills they become
overdue if it remains unpaid on presentation.
What Is a Nonperforming Asset?
A nonperforming asset (NPA) is a debt instrument where the borrower has not
made any previously agreed upon interest and principal repayments to the
designated lender for an extended period. The nonperforming asset is, therefore,
not yielding any income to the lender in the form of interest payments.
Carrying nonperforming assets, also referred to as nonperforming loans, on the
balance sheet places three distinct burdens on lenders. The nonpayment of
interest or principal reduces cash flow for the lender, which can disrupt budgets
and decrease earnings. Loan loss provisions, which are set aside to cover
potential losses, reduce the capital available to provide subsequent loans. Once
the actual losses from defaulted loans are determined, they are written off
against earnings
