In short

Canara Bank’s CEO said the bank could get about ₹450 crore from MDR on UPI.

He also said the bank has limited exposure to drought-prone parts of Maharashtra, but some pressure could show up in farm loans if crop losses hurt repayments. The exact impact is still unclear.

What the reporting says

Canara Bank MD and CEO Brajesh Kumar Singh estimated ₹450 crore from MDR on UPI, according to the headline and source summary. In the same reporting, he said the lender has limited exposure to drought-prone areas in Maharashtra and noted possible pressure in the Kisan Credit Card portfolio if crop losses hit farmer repayments. The report does not say when the MDR estimate applies or how large the repayment stress may become.
