Any default made by the borrowers in the repayment of bank loan is termed as Non-performing Asset (NPA). NPAs adversely affect the asset quality and profitability of the bank. This quantitative research study is an effort to evaluate the impact of these NPAs on the net worth of a bank. The evaluation of the impact is made by taking the case study of State Bank of India (SBI), the largest and oldest bank of the country. To evaluate per share book value of SBI, real and projected NPAs and its provisioning, the financial data for last 12 years are considered. Further, market value ratios are used for the assessment of the quantitative and analytical impact of NPAs on the shareholder’s net worth. Through real and projected Book Value, and regression analysis, it is observed that there is a substantial impact of increasing NPA provision on shareholder’s net worth of SBI.
