The banks are lending funds as loans and advances to various sectors such as agriculture, industry, personal and housing and other to meet the productive use of these funds.

Now -a –days Non-Performing Assets has been the single largest cause of nuisance of the Indian banking sector. Non-Performing Assets are those assets on which the interest or principal have not been paid by the borrower for the specified period in accordance with the directions/guidelines issued by Reserve Bank of India (RBI) which is the Central Bank of India. The paper emphasizes the conceptual framework of Non-Performing Assets known as NPA in the banking sector. It further discusses and analyses the trend of NPAs in the three sectors of banks namely public sector banks, new private sectors banks and foreign banks for the preceding period of ten years (2007-08 to 2016-17). Finally, this study covers the measures to be taken to reduce the menace of NPA in banks.
