THE State Bank of India (SBI) has declared loans given to state-owned Mahanagar Telecom Nigam Limited (MTNL) as a sub-standard non-performing asset (NPA) due to default in re-payment.

According to a letter from SBI, MTNL's total outstanding loan balance was at 325.52 crore as of September 30, with ₹281.62 crore overdue, requiring immediate payment to regularise the account. SBI emphasised that failure to settle the overdue amount will lead to a penal interest rate on the outstanding balance.

"Your attention is also drawn to the term that in case the overdue(s) are not so liquidated, a penal rate of interest is chargeable on such outstanding," reads the letter.
