DRTs were established to expedite recovery from non-performing assets (NPAs) in case of Banks and Financial Institutions (FIs).

The study has relied on primary data as well secondary data from 2011-2019. The secondary data has been collected from DRT website and RBI publications. The study has concluded that DRTs have not remained an effective mechanism for recovery of NPAs. It has identified the deficiencies in DRTs affecting their effectiveness and given suggestions for improving the same.
