Today, the Reserve Bank of India placed on its website its publication entitled ‘Statistical Tables Relating to Banks in India: 2016-17’ covering the activities of scheduled commercial banks, rural co-operative banks, non-banking financial companies (NBFCs), financial institutions (FIs) and primary dealers.

For scheduled commercial banks, entity-wise information on major items of liabilities and assets; income and expenses; selected financial ratios; number of employees and details of priority sector advances are provided. In addition, capital adequacy ratios (CRAR), non-performing assets (NPAs), exposure to sensitive sectors, contingent liabilities and unclaimed deposits are included.

Time series on each variable have been updated to 2016-17, wherever possible, with inputs from the institutions covered and the NABARD in case of rural co-operatives.

The publication can be accessed on the RBI website through the link ‘Time Series Publications’ under the Database on Indian Economy (DBIE) https://dbie.rbi.org.in/DBIE/dbie.rbi?site=publications#!4
