On its part, SBI, one of the 40 largest banks in the world, has NPAs worth $30 billion. Therefore, there is a need for a data-driven price discovery mechanism for NPAs. The platform will be created in partnership will other banks, asset reconstruction companies, and investors. Furthermore, the proposed blockchain based platform will provide the solution for the issue faced by the banking sector in India.
