We once had a twin balance sheet problem of leveraged corporate balance sheets and NPA issues with banks, but I think that is a thing of the past. Corporate balance sheets, especially cyclical industries have all deleveraged and banks in India are very strong, having raised a lot of capital, there is good oversight of the central bank"."India's banking system is very strong. So I don't see any contagion effect and this is in fact something even the finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman had recently mentioned US has their own set of challenges because of inflation which has left them with very few alternatives to raise rates. So this is what is now reflecting in all this stress in the banking system, but our banking system is in a very good position and I don't see any contagion effect," Panda added.Earlier on Monday, the GST collection for the month of April 2023 was released, wherein it was stated that the collection in April 2023 stood at an all-time high of Rs 1,87,035 croreOf the GST revenue collected in April, CGST is Rs 38,440 crore, SGST is Rs 47,412 crore, IGST is Rs 89,158 crore (including Rs 34,972 crore collected on import of goods) and cess is Rs 12,025 crore (including Rs 901 crore collected on import of goods)."The revenues for April 2023 are 12 per cent higher than the GST revenues in the same month last year," a Finance Ministry release said.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
