The noted economist said some of the bad loans are due to a slowdown in the economy and asset restructuring companies are part of the solution. The solution to clean up the balance sheet of banks lies in taking some hair cut. Even though hair cut can not be avoided, wilful defaulters must not go unpunished. Rangarajan, who was the helm of the RBI from December 1992 to November 1997, said it is necessary for India to grow at 8 to 9 per cent annually to reach per capita GDP of USD 8,000 by 2030 from the current levels of USD 1,600.
