The "Twin Balance Sheet Problem" was a significant issue faced by the Indian economy. It refers to the stressed balance sheets of both the banking sector and the corporate (mainly, real estate) sector. In this situation, many Indian banks had a high level of non-performing assets (bad loans), which impaired their financial health. Simultaneously, some real estate companies were burdened with high levels of debt and unsold inventory, leading to financial stress. The interlinkage of these stressed balance sheets created a challenging situation for the overall economy, affecting credit availability and investment.
