Abstract: Indian banks invest a large volume of their funds under different components of the capital market. Investment in such components gives birth to different kinds of risks in the investment portfolios. Such risks in most cases may cause the assets loss of the banks and in some cases lead to closure of the banks. The present paper attempts to identify the different classes of risks attached with the components as well as finding the linkage between different classes of risks and banks' performance by taking the top ten banks operating in India; five banks from both public and private sector for period 2017 to 2021. Using robust panel data regression, the results revealed that both market risk (MR) and credit risk (CR) have significant impact on the performance of the banks while the MR has a significant influencing role to downgrade the banks' performance.
