Microfinance in India: the ten districts with the most defaults, presumably as in 2018.
Microfinance recovers
India's microfinance industry — anchored by banks, NBFCs and MFIs – now has a clientele of more than 42 million. The sector hit a hard patch during demonetisation. And in the months following demonetisation, non-performing assets (NPAs) as a percentage of loans hit highs of 14-15%. But the sector has since recovered. Despite loan waivers and election season, the microfinance sector in India now has a default rate of 2.9%. However, there are still some districts and regions which show stress.
