The book deliberates and discusses NPA Laws in India and it acts as a ‘one-stop shop’ for the readers in the domain of ‘Law and Finance’.
The legislative framework of debt recovery framework such as RDDBFI Act, 1993, the SARFAESI Act, 2002 and Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 has been encapsulated with economic analysis of these laws.
