A. loss

B. doubtful

D. All of these

Answer: Option B

Solution (By Examveda Team)

Non-Performing Asset (NPA) is a loan or advance where interest and or installment of principal remains overdue

If the dues remain unpaid for a period of two quarters or more that loan is classified as Non-Performing

This means the asset stops generating income for the bank and becomes a financial risk

Therefore the correct answer is Option C (non-performing)
