This data underscores the dual-edged nature of loan write-offs. On one hand, they help banks clean up their books, but on the other, the low recovery rates suggest inefficiencies in pursuing defaulters. Public sector banks, in particular, need enhanced tools and autonomy to recover dues, ensuring taxpayers' money is safeguarded and trust in the banking system is maintained.

While write-offs may be a necessary tool for balance-sheet management, the low recovery percentage raises questions about the effectiveness of recovery strategies. A comprehensive review of loan approval processes and enforcement of borrower liability is crucial to prevent further financial losses.
