Lenders must also be given freedom to decide at whatever the value they wish to sell the stressed assets, Dave said.
Speaking on the same issue, SBI chief Dinesh Khara said there needs to be capacity building that need to happen at the IBC level, while adding that as far as law is concerned it is clearly stated as to the required steps that needed to be followed.
