Abstract

The suppression and mitigation measures (strict confinement, social distancing and staggered and localized deconfinancing) of COVID-19 have had effects that further aggravate the fragility of the indian commercial banking system, and the Reserve Bank of India has responded with a series of measures aimed at raising the credit supply of commercial banks and maintaining financial stability. Thus, the objective of this paper is to analyze such financial fragility vis-à-vis the impact of COVID-19 on the overdue portfolios of commercial banks - both public and private sector.
