When a fisheries loan slips into NPA, resolution is still possible. Understanding the classification and recovery process helps you respond calmly.
How a fisheries loan becomes NPA
A loan is generally classified as NPA when instalments or interest remain overdue beyond 90 days. Classification triggers the bank's recovery process but also opens the door to formal settlement.
Responding to recovery notices
A demand or recall notice starts a process with defined timelines. Do not ignore it — respond in writing, propose settlement or restructuring, and keep records of all communication.
Frequently asked questions
Can an NPA fisheries loan still be settled?
