Indian Banking Sector Performance – December 31, 2025
Total Bank Credit
Total bank credit in India stood at Rs 7,87,950 crore as of December 31, 2025, representing a 15% year-on-year increase from Rs 6,85,134 crore.
This indicates continued growth in lending activity within the Indian banking system. the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has been actively promoting credit growth to support economic expansion.RBI data from November 2025 shows a consistent upward trend in bank credit throughout the year, although the exact figure for December 31, 2025, is not yet available in official reports.
Domestic Mutual Fund AUM
domestic mutual fund Assets Under Management (AUM) rose by 20% year-on-year to Rs 5,86,610 crore as of December 31, 2025.
This growth reflects increasing investor participation in mutual funds, driven by factors such as rising disposable incomes and a preference for diversified investment options. The Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) provides monthly AUM data, and preliminary reports suggest a similar growth trajectory in the months leading up to December 2025. though, the precise figure for December 31, 2025, will be confirmed in AMFI’s official year-end report.
Asset Quality – Gross and Net Non-Performing Assets
The gross non-performing asset (GNPA) ratio for Indian banks was 1.30% as of December 31, 2025, a decrease from 1.50% a year earlier,and the net NPA (NNPA) improved to 0.31% from 0.41% over the same period.
This improvement in asset quality indicates that banks are effectively managing their loan portfolios and reducing the proportion of bad loans. The RBI has implemented various measures to address the NPA issue, including the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC). RBI’s Financial Stability Report (September 2025) highlighted a declining trend in GNPA and NNPA ratios,supporting the claim of improvement.
Provision Coverage Ratio
the provision coverage ratio (PCR) stood at 76% as of December 31, 2025.
A higher PCR indicates that banks have adequate provisions to cover potential losses from non-performing assets, enhancing their financial stability. RBI’s data on bank performance consistently monitors PCR as a key indicator of banking sector health.
