5. HOW IS FRAUD DIFFERENT FROM
CONVENTIONAL NPAs?
◦ “Frauds are different from normal NPAs in that the loss is because of a patently illegal action, by
either the borrower or the banker,” according to Raghuram Rajan’s 22-page note to Parliament
on NPAs.
◦ The former RBI governor had said that without any precedent of recovery or successful
prosecution of alleged fraudsters, the classification of an account as fraud itself creates a self-
serving problem equivalent to that of the proverbial chicken and egg story.

offenders from evading the process of Indian law by giving powers to the government to confiscate assets of

due diligence in trade credit.
