Loan Recovery Cases
Loan recovery cases arise when financial institutions, banks, or lenders seek to recover unpaid loans or outstanding dues from borrowers who have failed to repay their financial obligations. These disputes often involve issues related to loan agreements, repayment defaults, enforcement of security interests, and recovery proceedings initiated by banks or financial institutions.
In India, loan recovery matters are governed by several legal frameworks, including the Recovery of Debts and Bankruptcy Act, 1993 (RDB Act), the Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002 (SARFAESI Act), and other banking regulations. These laws enable banks and financial institutions to recover debts through legal proceedings before the Debt Recovery Tribunal (DRT) and Debt Recovery Appellate Tribunal (DRAT).
