A Project Report on Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit at K V G Bank

Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The present study at Karnataka Vikas Grameen vikas Bank, Dharwad is conducted for the study of disbursement and recovery procedure of loans.

The Karnataka Vikas Grameen Bank that emerged after the amalgamation of the four erstwhile Grameen Banks with its area of operation spread over nine districts, now caters to 1/3 of the geographical area of the State and therby has earned the opportunity of serving a large section of rural populace.

The basic objective of any financial institution is to maximize wealth. In order to achieve this objective the bank must earn sufficient amount of profit. The amount of such profits largely depends upon the magnitude of loans assisted and the recovery of those loans. Each component of recovery has two dimensions, time and money. When it comes to recovery of loans “Time is Money�.

A study of recovery procedure which I have chosen as the topic of my project in KVG Bank, Dharwad is the main and the key recovery department, which plays an important role in the collection of the sources of funds for the bank which in turn will be used for refinancing for the industrial and agricultural concern.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW: BANKING INDUSTRY IN INDIA

Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit Banking in India originated in the first decade of 18th century with The General Bank of India coming into existence in 1786. This was followed by Bank of Hindustan. Both these banks are now defunct. The oldest bank in existence in India is the State Bank of India being established as "The Bank of Bengal" in Calcutta in June 1806. A couple of decades later, foreign banks like Credit Lyonnais started their Calcutta operations in the 1850s.

At that point of time, Calcutta was the most active trading port, mainly due to the trade of the British Empire, and due to which banking activity took roots there and prospered. The first fully Indian owned bank was the Allahabad Bank, which was established in 1865.

By the 1900s, the market expanded with the establishment of banks such as Punjab National Bank, in 1895 in Lahore and Bank of India, in 1906, in Mumbai - both of which were founded under private ownership. The Reserve Bank of India formally took on the responsibility of regulating the Indian banking sector from 1935.

After India's independence in 1947, the Reserve Bank was nationalized and given broader powers.

Early history At the end of late-18th century, there were hardly any bank in India in the modern sense of the term. At the time of the American Civil War, a void was created as the supply of cotton to Lancashire stopped from the Americas. Some banks were opened at that time which functioned as entities to finance industry, including speculative trades in cotton. With large exposure to speculative ventures, most of the banks opened in India during that period could not survive and failed. The depositors lost money and lost interest in keeping deposits with banks. Subsequently, banking in India remained the exclusive domain of Europeans for next several decades until the beginning of the 20th century.

Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit At the beginning of the 20th century, Indian economy was passing through a relative period of stability. Around five decades have elapsed since the India's First war of Independence, and the social, industrial and other infrastructure have developed. At that time there were very small banks operated by Indians, and most of them were owned and operated by particular communities. The banking in India was controlled and dominated by the presidency banks, namely, the Bank of Bombay, the Bank of Bengal, and the Bank of Madras - which later on merged to form the Imperial Bank of India, and Imperial Bank of India, upon India's independence, was renamed the State Bank of India. There were also some exchange banks, as also a number of Indian joint stock banks. All these banks operated in different segments of the economy. The presidency banks were like the central banks and discharged most of the functions of central banks. They were established under charters from the British East India Company. The exchange banks, mostly owned by the Europeans, concentrated on financing of foreign trade. Indian joint stock banks were generally under capitalized and lacked the experience and maturity to compete with the presidency banks, and the exchange banks. There was potential for many new banks as the economy was growing. Lord Curzon had observed then in the context of Indian banking: "In respect of banking it seems we are behind the times. We are like some old fashioned sailing ship, divided by solid wooden bulkheads into separate and cumbersome compartments."

Under these circumstances, many Indians came forward to set up banks, and many banks were set up at that time, and a number of them set up around that time continued to survive and prosper even now like Bank of India and Corporation Bank, Indian Bank, Bank of Baroda, and Canara Bank.

During the Wars Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit The period during the First World War (1914-1918) through the end of the Second World War (1939-1945), and two years thereafter until the independence of India were challenging for the Indian banking. The years of the First World War were turbulent, and it took toll of many banks which simply collapsed despite the Indian economy gaining indirect boost due to war-related economic activities. At least 94 banks in India failed during the years 1913 to 1918 as indicated in the following table: Years

Post-independence The partition of India in 1947 had adversely impacted the economies of Punjab and West Bengal, and banking activities had remained paralyzed for months. India's independence marked the end of a regime of the Laissez-faire for the Indian banking. The Government of India initiated measures to play an active role in Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

Page 6

Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit the economic life of the nation, and the Industrial Policy Resolution adopted by the government in 1948 envisaged a mixed economy. This resulted into greater involvement of the state in different segments of the economy including banking and finance.

The major steps to regulate banking included: ďƒ˜ In 1948, the Reserve Bank of India, India's central banking authority, was nationalized, and it became an institution owned by the Government of India. ďƒ˜ In 1949, the Banking Regulation Act was enacted which empowered the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) "to regulate, control, and inspect the banks in India." ďƒ˜ The Banking Regulation Act also provided that no new bank or branch of an existing bank may be opened without a license from the RBI, and no two banks could have common directors.

However, despite these provisions, control and regulations, banks in India except the State Bank of India, continued to be owned and operated by private persons. This changed with the nationalization of major banks in India on 19th July, 1969.

Nationalisation By the 1960s, the Indian banking industry has become an important tool to facilitate the development of the Indian economy.

At the same time, it has emerged as a large employer, and a debate has ensued about the possibility to nationalize the banking industry. Indira Gandhi, the-then Prime Minister of India expressed the intention of the GOI in the annual conference of the All India Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

Page 7

Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit Congress Meeting in a paper entitled "Stray thoughts on Bank Nationalisation." The paper was received with positive enthusiasm. Thereafter, her move was swift and sudden, and the GOI issued an ordinance and nationalized the 14 largest commercial banks with effect from the midnight of July 19, 1969.

Jayaprakash Narayan, a national leader of India, described the step as a "masterstroke of political sagacity." Within two weeks of the issue of the ordinance, the Parliament passed the Banking Companies (Acquisition and Transfer of Undertaking) Bill, and it received the presidential approval on 9th August, 1969.

A second dose of nationalisation of 6 more commercial banks followed in 1980. The stated reason for the nationalisation was to give the government more control of credit delivery. With the second dose of nationalisation, the GOI controlled around 91% of the banking business of India.

After this, until the 1990s, the nationalised banks grew at a pace of around 4%, closer to the average growth rate of the Indian economy.

Liberalisation In the early 1990s the then Narasimha Rao government embarked on a policy of liberalization and gave licences to a small number of private banks, which came to be known as New Generation tech-savvy banks, which included banks such as UTI Bank (the first of such new generation banks to be set up), ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank. This move, along with the rapid growth in the economy of India, kick started the banking sector in India, which has seen rapid growth with strong contribution from all the Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

Page 8

Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit three sectors of banks, namely, government banks, private banks and foreign banks.

The next stage for the Indian banking has been setup with the proposed relaxation in the norms for Foreign Direct Investment, where all Foreign Investors in banks may be given voting rights which could exceed the present cap of 10%,at present it has gone up to 49% with some restrictions.

The new policy shook the Banking sector in India completely. Bankers, till this time, were used to the 4-6-4 method (Borrow at 4%;Lend at 6%;Go home at 4) of functioning. The new wave ushered in a modern outlook and tech-savvy methods of working for traditional banks. All this led to the retail boom in India. People not just demanded more from their banks but also received more.

Current scenario Currently (2007), overall, banking in India is considered as fairly mature in terms of supply, product range and reach-even though reach in rural India still remains a challenge for the private sector and foreign banks. Even in terms of quality of assets and capital adequacy, Indian banks are considered to have clean, strong and transparent balance sheets-as compared to other banks in comparable economies in its region. The Reserve Bank of India is an autonomous body, with minimal pressure from the government.

The stated policy of the Bank on the Indian Rupee is to manage Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

Page 9

Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit volatility-without any stated exchange rate-and this has mostly been true.

With the growth in the Indian economy expected to be strong for quite some time-especially in its services sector, the demand for banking services-especially retail banking, mortgages and investment services are expected to be strong. M&As, takeovers, asset sales and much more action (as it is unraveling in China) will happen on this front in India.

In March 2006, the Reserve Bank of India allowed Warburg Pincus to increase its stake in Kotak Mahindra Bank (a private sector bank) to 10%. This is the first time an investor has been allowed to hold more than 5% in a private sector bank since the RBI announced norms in 2005 that any stake exceeding 5% in the private sector banks would need to be vetted by them.

Currently, India has 88 scheduled commercial banks (SCBs) - 28 public sector banks (that is with the Government of India holding a stake), 29 private banks (these do not have government stake; they may be publicly listed and traded on stock exchanges) and 31 foreign banks. They have a combined network of over 53,000 branches and 17,000 ATMs. According to a report by ICRA Limited, a rating agency, the public sector banks hold over 75 percent of total assets of the banking industry, with the private and foreign banks holding 18.2% and 6.5% respectively.

BANK PROFILE The Karnataka Vikas Grameen Bank that emerged after the amalgamation of the four erstwhile Grameen Banks, with its area of operation spread over nine districts,now caters to 1/3 of the geographical area of the state, and thereby has earned the opportunity of serving a large section of rural populace.

One of the successful experiments of the banking sector in India has been the formation of the Regional Rural Banks (RRBs).

Experts in the field have acknowledged the fact taking into account the recent enormous progress achieved by the RRBs, which have traveled a long way in the last 30 years, on a journey that can best be described as arduos. Close on the heels of nationalization, when the focus shifted form Class Banking to MassBanking, the RRBs emerged as a low cost Bank designed to cater to the needs of Small Marginal Farmers, Rural Artisans, Petty Traders etc, who operate in Rural Areas.

Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

Page 23

Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit

The initial period was marked with innumerable challenges as the RRBs had to deal with illiterate, superstitious people, not exposed to the changing world scene. It was indeed an uphill task, as they were expected to play the role of not just a Banker, but also that of a friend, philosopher and guide, leading them on the path of development.

Malaprabha Grameen Bank, Bijapur Grameen Bank, Varada Grameen Bank and Nethravati Grameen Banks were the four RRBs, Sponsored by Syndicate Bank, in the State of Karnataka.

When the above RRBs were established without much ado way back in the 1970/80s, people may not have had the slightest idea about the ripple that these RRBs would create in the banking industry and the impact that they would have on the rural scene. In the formative years, the main concern was to reach out to the rural poor through its strong network of branches. The banks were playing a pivotal role in bringing about a metamorphosis in their respective areas of operation through its implementation of the various schemes and programmes tailored to suit the requirements of their customers.

As part of the measures which will lead to strong, efficient and vibrant Banking System, the mergers and reconstruction phase of the recommendations of the Narsimhan Committee is now being implemented and thus the four RRBs sponsored by Syndicate Bank in the State of Karnataka were amalgamated to form the KARNATAKA VIKAS GRAMEEN BANK by a Government of India notification dated 12/09/2005. The combined business level Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit of this Bank was Rs 3263.73 crores with Deposits of Rs.1620.46 crores and advances of Rs 1643.27 crores as on 12/09/2005.

The Banks have come a long way from those initial years and after amalgamation the Bank has a network of 403 branches cutting across the length and breadth of the nine districts forming its area of operation. Surmounting the initial problems of bringing about uniformity in the working of these Branches after amalgamation, the Bank was able to record a growth of 22.24% as on 31/03/2006 in comparison to the combined figures of the four RRBs put together as on 31/03/2005. The Bank plans to achieve business level of Rs 4500 crores by the end of March 2007.

REGIONAL RURAL BANKS The institution of Regional Rural banks (RRBs) was created to meet the excess demand for institutional credit in the rural areas, particularly among the economically and socially marginalized sections. Although the co-operative banks and the commercial banks had reasonable records in terms of geographical coverage and disbursement of credit, in terms of population groups the co-operative banks were dominated by the rural rich, while the commercial banks had a clear urban bias. In order to provide access to low –cost banking facilities to the poor, the Narasimhan Working Group (1975) proposed the establishment of a new set of banks, as institutions which “combine the local feel and the familiarity with rural problems which the co-operatives possess and the degree of business organization, ability to mobilize deposits, access to central money markets and modernized outlook which the commercial banks have”. The multi-agency approach to rural credit was also to subserve the needs of input intensive –intensive agricultural strategy (Green Revolution) which had initially focused on betting on the strong but by the mid-seventies was ready to spread more widely through Indian countryside. In addition, the Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

Page 33

Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit potential and the need for diversification of economic activities in the rural areas had begun to be recognized, and this was a sector where the RRBs could play a meaningful role. The RRBs Act, 1976 succintly sums up this overall vision to sub-serve Dec.1975 Dec.1980 Dec.1985 Mar.1990 Banks 6 85 188 196 Branches 17 3,279 12,606 14,443 both the developmental and the redistributive objectives: The RRBs were established “with a view to developing the rural economy by providing, for the purpose of development of agricultural, trade, commerce, industry, and other productive activities in the rural areas, credit and other facilities, particularly to small and marginal farmers, agricultural labourers, artisans and small entrepreneurs, and for matters connected therewith and incidental thereto.�

The following one-and-a-half decades saw large-scale efforts to the number of banks, bank branches, and disbursements nationwide. By 1991, there were 196 RRBs with over 14,000 predominantly rural branches in 476 districts with an average coverage of three villages per branch. These banks had disbursed over Rs. 3,500 crore in credit and mobilized over Rs. 4,100 crore in deposits. The bulk of the loans from RRBs were to the priority sectors, which accounted for over 70% of the total. Agriculture and allied activities took up more than 50% of the total advances. In addition, the RRBs were instrumental in extending credit for poverty alleviation schemes _______________________ The year 1990 marks the end of the expansion phase of regional banking, beyond which there has been no growth in the number of Regional Rural Banks (including branches).

Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit (e.g., IRDP) and disadvantaged area (drought-pronr regions and deserts) development programmes.

The expansion phase of the late seventies and the eighties while focused on outreach was not devoid of a blueprint for viability of the RRBs, unlike what the mainstream academia and press claim to be the case. It was understood that the RRBs to survive as credit institutions could not remain unviable for a long time, though the RRB might not remain unviable in the initial years.

This expectation was, however, tempered by the prevalent situation on the field and the ultimate objectives for which these specialized institutions were created. It was realized early that the question of viability of the RRBs could not be the same as other business ventures. A business unit has all the freedom to take decisions on many matters such as opening branches, deploying its resources, staff recruitment, its purchases, methods of rending services etc. But the RRBs could not be flexible in many of their affairs; even their clientele was specific, scattered , remote and not assisted by anyone. Keeping in view the objectives of the RRBs, these institutions could certainly not be evaluated on the basis of mere financial viability. There was a general agreement that the viability of the RRBs had to be assessed in terms of a composite criteria including increase in business per branch recovery rate, productivity of staff, cost effectiveness of operations, closer monitoring, socio-economic upliftment and improvements in the standards of living of the clientele. Again in respect to the time dimention. It was estimated that the RRBs would need about seven years to become viable, though for the RRBs with a large number of infant branches even this period might not be adequate. Between 1980 and 1987, while the number of RRBs increased more than four-fold. It was not totally unexpected Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

RECOVERY Introduction: Collection of amount due is termed as recovery. The Bank lends money to industrial concerns for establishment or expansion Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

Page 50

Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit of projects. While sanctioning the loans based on certain assumptions, the profitability will be worked out and the moratorium period and repayment period are fixed. The repayment period generally caused to 5-7 years with a moratorium period of six months to one year for sound viable projects.

Interest earned is the income for the Bank. This should meet interest, payments all the expenses and plough back requirements. Therefore recovery of money is one of the major sources of funds for the Bank. The health of the bank is judged by the extent or recovery that it can affect.

The other sources of funds to the Bank are: The sources of funds for RRBs comprise of: 1) Owned Funds 2) Fixed Deposits from Public 3) Borrowings: From NABARD From sponsor banks 4) Other sources including SIDBI and National Housing Bank.

1)

Owned Funds

The owned funds of RRBs comprising share capital, share capital deposits received from the stake holders toward recapitalization support and the reserves appropriated by the profit making RRBs stood at Rs.7291.99 crore as on 31 March 2007 as against Rs.6646.59 crore as on 31 March 2006 and Rs.6181.26 crore as on March 2004-05. The increase in Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

Page 51

Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit owned funds to the tune of Rs.645 crore during 2006-07 was mainly due to accretion to the reserves out of profits made by 56 RRBs having no accumulated losses.

2) Fixed Deposits form Public Deposits of RRBs increased by Rs.11556.52 crore and reached to the level of Rs.82885.35 crore as on 31 March 2007 as against Rs.71328.83 crore as on 31 March 2006. The deposit growth was found to have increased to 16.20% in 2006-07 from 14.78% in 2005-06 and 10.28% in 2004-05.

Deposit mobilisation of RRBs has been growing steadily.

3) Borrowings The RRBs borrowed Rs.9652.35 crore as on 31 March 2007 as against Rs.7302.59 crore as on 31 March 2006.

NABARD remained to be the primary organization from whom RRBs borrowed maximum as refinance to the extent of 78% of total borrowing. The borrowing from the Sponsor Banks and others accounted for about 19.7% and 2.3% respectively of total borrowing of RRBs.

Plough back of funds in to the system is emerging as one of the very important sources of funds in the total resources mix.

Therefore, systematic follow-up and recovery of loans play a significant role in bank’s operations.

Essential good recovery depends on good portfolio of loans.

Good loans portfolio means, low default ratio, higher % of recoveries to recoverable amount, lesser rescheduling, lower waivers\write offs, and this leads to less number of cases taken Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

Page 52

Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit over. This means shift has to be made towards viable and quality lending by shedding to some extent the development role.

ROLE OF THE FIELD OFFICERS Then role of Field Officers is to render full complained of services to the loans through out the period of recovery. He acts as an intermediary between the loanee and the Bank and keep the pulse of the venture and protects interest of the Bank.

Over the years, the bank has developed procedures for follow up and recovery of loans and close monitoring of, assisted units. It has evolved strategies for tackling chronic default units etc.

RECOVERY OF LOANS The recovery of loans is done by the personal contacts of a banker and the loanee. When the loans are advanced to the customers of the bank certain moratorium period is fixed for the purpose of recovering the loans. If the said loans are not recovered within the due date or within the moratorium period then certain procedure is followed by the bank for the recovery of those loans.

That procedure may be termed as loan recovery procedure.

Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit ďƒ˜ It was found that the documentation procedure in KVG Bank is very long and difficult to follow and some times too risky also.

ďƒ˜ The recovery period for the loan taken from the KVG Bank was very short and due to this some of the proprietors are finding difficulty in proper repayment of the loan amount to the proprietors or the borrowers of the bank.

RECOMMENDATIONS 1. KVG Bank has to maintain quality 2. The Bank should take measures to sanction financial assistance by taking less processing time so as to eliminate delay in implementing the project.

3. The bank has to keep continuos contact with the borrowers, which will help the bank in quick disbursement and improves customer relationship.

5. The recovery policy adopted by the KVG Bank should be improved, continuos interaction and follow-up definitely helps the bank to increase the ratio of recovery.

Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

Recovery and disbursement Procedure of Credit 6. KVG Bank should implement computerization to a large extent and surplus staff should be removed by modifying the Organization Structure.

7. Targets should be set to the recovery officers and special incentives should be provided to those officers who achieve their objectives.

CONCLUSION The basic objective of any Bank is to maximize the wealth.

The amount of such profits largely depends upon the magnitude of loans assisted and the recovery of those loans. Each component of recovery has two dimensions Time and Money when it comes to recovery of loans “Time is Money�.

A study of Recovery Procedure, which I have chosen as the topic of my project in Karnataka Vikas Grameen Bank, Head office Dharwad, is the main and the key department, which plays a vital role in collection of the sources of funds for the Bank which in turn will be used for refinancing for the industrial concern. Thus in the bank this department should work at its best level to make the bank a profitable one. A good recovery depends on good portfolio of loans and good loan portfolio means, low default ratio, higher percentage of recoveries to recoverable amount, lesser rescheduling, lower waivers\write offs.
