New Delhi: Dues from big wilful defaulters of Punjab National Bank fell by 0.87 per cent to Rs 15,354.52 crore on June 30 compared to previous month, the bank data has showed.

Punjab National Bank (PNB) has put on sale three non-performing assets to recover Rs 136 crore dues from the borrowers.

"We intend to place these accounts for sale to ARCs/ NBFCs/other banks/FIs on the terms and conditions stipulated in the bank's policy, in line with the regulatory guidelines," PNB said in the invite for expression.

MUMBAI: Punjab National Bank moved the debts recovery tribunal (DRT) on Wednesday to recover Rs 7,000 crore which diamantaire Nirav Modi availed through “fraudulent letters of undertaking (LoUs)”.
