      Solution

      Section 13(2) of the SARFAESI Act provides that where the borrower's account has been classified as a non-performing asset, the secured creditor may require the borrower by a notice in writing to discharge in full his liabilities within 60 days from the date of such notice. Only after the expiry of this 60-day period, and if the borrower fails to comply, can the secured creditor invoke enforcement measures under Section 13(4). This 60-day period is a mandatory notice period and a critical procedural safeguard for the borrower before asset seizure. The period was originally specified in the Act and has not been changed by amendments.
