    CHAPTER 1

    INTRODUCTION[INDUSTRY PROFILE]

    Banking is as old as civilization itself, initially banking meant money lending. The

    business of banking existed in Babylonia as early as 2000 BC. The Babylonians

    developed a banking system where money was lent in temples against the security of

    Gold and Silver left with them for safe custody.

    In ancient Greece around the same time, there existed banking business. Even then

    temples were used as depositories for the surplus funds of the people and were also used

    as centers of the money lending business. The priests acted as financial agents of the

    money lending business.

    The practice of granting credit existed in ancient Rome. The Romans adopted

    Greek system of banking. The banking business had a set back after the death of the

    emperor JUSTINIAN in 565A.D. With the advent of trade and commerce in the middle

    age, the banking business was mostly confined to only money lending. The JEWS and

    LAMBARDY dominated the money lending business in the medieval period. The

    Christians were forbidden by their religion to indulge in money lending. However in the

    course of time with the weakening of the hold of religion and with the development of

    trade and commerce around the 13th century, the Christians also entered the field of

    money lending.

    Banking business originated in England during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I.

    Goldsmiths mainly did banking business. They accepted the valuables and the funds of

    their customers for safe custody and issued receipts against the valuable lest for safe

    custody. But in the course of time their receipts became payable to barrier on demand.

    The banking business suffered a setback during the reign of Charles II in 1640 that

    declined to return the funds and valuables deposited by the Goldsmiths with the

    exchequer under the case of government. This led to the growth of private banking and

    also the establishment of the Bank of England in 1694.

    1. Banking business in ancient times.

    The ancient Hindu Scripture refers to the prevalence of money lending activities in

    the Vedic period. The epics Ramayana and Mahabharata refer banking business as full

    fledged activity. During the Smriti period, which followed the Vedic period the members

    of the Vaish community largely carried on banking business. In ancient times banking

    business was mainly in the form of money lending. It laid a strong foundation for

    banking industry.

    2. Banking in pre-independence period

    During the pre-independence period, Indigenous Banking and Money Lenders

    primarily carried on banking business. Farmers main sources of loans were indigenous

    bankers and money lenders, even to the present times especially in rural and urban areas.

    Indigenous bankers have been operating in India since the ancient times mainly in

    small towns, semi urban areas and rural areas. Indigenous banking is carried on by all

    castes of people, but it is generally monopoly/ed by certain banking caste such as Shroffs

    in Maharashtra, Seths in West Bengal, Baniyas in Uttar Pradesh, Sahukars in Punjab,

    Chettiars in Tamil Nadu, Marwaries and Jains in Rajasthan and Gujarat.

    3. Development of Indian banking industry in the post independence period

    During the pre-independence era Indian banking industry had to pass through

    several economic crisis and bank failures. But with India attaining independence the

    banking situation has completely changed. Some of the developments during the post

    independence period until today are:

    The nationalization of Reserve Bank of India on 1st January 1949. The passing of the banking regulation act in 1949. The nationalization and conversion of the Imperial Bank of India into the State

    Bank of India on 11th July 1955.

    The nationalization of 14 major commercial banks on 19th July 1969 and the futurenationalization of 6 commercial banks on 15th April 1980.

    Establishment of Regional Rural Banks to cater to the needs of rural areas. About196 rural banks are catering to the needs of rural people.

    Setting up of Land Development Banks to cater to the long-term credit needs ofagriculturists.

    Setting up of special financial institutions for meeting the specialized need ofcertain sectors of the economy. Some of the specialized institutions are:

    Industrial Development Bank of India (IDBI).

    Industrial Credit and Investment Corporation of India (ICICI).

    State Financial Corporation (SFC).

    Industrial Development Corporation (IDC).

    Small Industries Development Bank of India (SIDBI).

    Industrial Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD).

    National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD).

    Export Import Bank of India (EXIM).

    Export Credit Guarantee Corporation of India.

    The National Housing Bank.

    Present Banking Scenario

    The Indian Banking System of today can be compared with finest banking system

    in the whole world. Today the Indian banking system is on very sound lines with a

    network of branch spread all over the country and serving all sections of the society with

    innovative banking programs.

    Todays Indian banking system comprises of 27 public sector banks, 30 private

    sector non schedule commercial banks, several private sector new commercial banks, 27

    foreign schedule banks, 196 regional rural banks, several thousand co-operative banks

    and several land development banks. Institutions like Life Insurance Corporation of India

    and Unit Trust Bank of India also plays an important role in Indian banking system.

    With the liberalization of the economy in 1991 the banking sector has undergone a

    revolution. Foreign banks are based in India and this has led to further improvement andsophistication of banking service due to competition.

    Definition:

    The Indian banking regulation act of 1949 has aptly defined the term Banking in

    section 5(1) (B) as accepting for the purpose of lending or investments of deposits of

    money from the public, repayable on demand or otherwise and withdraw able by cheque,

    draft, and orderor otherwise

    [NON-PERFORMING ASSETS]

    Definition

    A loan or lease that is not meeting its stated principal and interest payments. Banks

    usually classify as nonperforming assets any commercial loans which are more than 90

    days overdue and any consumer loans which are more than 180 days overdue. More

    generally, anassetwhich is not producing income which is considers as NPA.

    In India, an asset is classified as a Non-Performing Asset (NPA) if interest or

    installments of principal due remain unpaid for more than 180 days. However, with effect

    from March 2004, default status would be given to a borrower if dues are not paid for 90

    days. If any advance or credit facilities granted by a bank to a borrower become non-

    performing, then the bank will have to treat all the advances/credit facilities granted to

    that borrower as non-performing without having any regard to the fact that there may still

    exist certain advances/credit facilities having performing status.

    What is a NPA?

    Action for enforcement of security interest can be initiated only if the secured asset is

    classified as Non Performing Asset.

    Non Performing Asset means an asset or account of borrower, which has been classified

    by a bank or financial institution as sub-standard, doubtful or loss asset, in accordance

    with the directions or guidelines relating to asset classification issued by RBI.

    An amount due under any credit facility is treated as "past due" when it has not been paid

    within 30 days from the due date. Due to the improvement in the payment and settlement

    systems, recovery climate, up gradation of technology in the banking system, etc., it was

    9/78

    9 A report on Non-performing assets at Apex bank

    decided to dispense with 'past due' concept, with effect from March 31, 2001.

    Accordingly, as from that date, a Non performing asset (NPA) shell be an advance where

    i.

    Interest and /or installment of principal remain overdue for aii. The account remains 'out of order' for a period of more than 180 days, in respect

    period of more than 180 days in respect of a Term Loan, of an overdraft/ cash

    Credit(OD/CC),

    iii. The bill remains overdue for a period of more than 180 days in the case of billspurchased and discounted,

    iv. Interest and/ or installment of principal remains overdue for two harvest seasonsbut for a period not exceeding two half years in the case of an advance granted for

    agricultural purpose, and

    v. Any amount to be received remains overdue for a period of more than 180 days inrespect of other accounts.

    CLASSIFICATION OF ASSETS:

    Performing assets /standard assets

    Non-performing assets (NPA)

    CLASSIFICATION OF NPAs:

    Standard assets Sub-standard assets Doubtful assets Loss assets

  • 7/27/2019 NPA Project Report

    10/78

    10 A report on Non-performing assets at Apex bank

    1) Standard Assets:Standard Assets is one, which does not disclose any problem and which does

    not carry more than normal risk attached to business. Thus in general, all the currentloans, agricultural and non-agricultural loans, which have not become NPA, may be

    treated as standard assets.

    2) Sub-Standard Assets:A Non-performing asset may be classified as sub-standard on the basis of the

    following criteria.

    An asset which has remained overdue for a period not exceeding 3 years inrespect of both agricultural loans should be treated as substandard.

    In case of all types of term loans, where installments are overdue for aperiod not exceeding 3years, the entire outstanding in term loan should be

    treated as sub-standard.

    An asset, where the terms and conditions of the loans regarding payment ofinterest and repayment of principal have been renegotiated or rescheduled,

    after commencement of production should be classified sub-standard and

    should remain so in such category for atleast one year of satisfactory

    performance under the renegotiated or rescheduled terms. In other words

    the classification of an asset should not be upgraded merely as a result of

    rescheduling unless there is satisfactory compliance of the above condition.

    3) Doubtful Assets:These are the assets "the recovers of which is highly questionable and impossible" it is

    usually a non performing asset for a period exceeding 3 years in respect of both

    agricultural and Non-agricultural loans. In case of all types of term loans, where

  • 7/27/2019 NPA Project Report

    11/78

    11 A report on Non-performing assets at Apex bank

    installments are overdue for more than 3 years, the entire outstanding in term loan should

    be treated as doubtful. As in the case of sub-standard assets, rescheduling does not entitle

    a bank to upgrade the quality of advance automatically.

    4) Loss Assets:

    They are those were lose is identified as no recoverable by the bank / Auditor / RBI /

    NABARD inspectors but the amount has not been written of wholly or partially. in other

    words, an asset which is considered unrealizable and / or of such little value that its

    continuance as a doubtful asset is not worthwhile, should be treated as a loss asset. Such

    loss assets will include overdue loans in cases.

    Where decrees or execution petitions have been time barred or documents are lostor no legal proof is available to claim the debt.

    Where the members and their sureties are declared insolvent or have died leavingno tangible assets.

    Where the members have left the area of operation of the society (refers to theborrower) in whose the respective Loan Account with SCB / CCB leaving no

    property and their sureties have also no means to pay the dues.

    Where the loan is fictitious or when gross misutilisation is notices, and Amounts which cannot be recovered in case of liquidation societies.

    PROVISIONING NORMS:

    Standard Assets: - General provision of a minimum of 0.25%. Sub-Standard Assets:- 10% on total outstanding balance, 10% on unsecured

    exposures identified as sub standard & 100% for unsecured "doubtful" assets.

  • 7/27/2019 NPA Project Report

    12/78

    12 A report on Non-performing assets at Apex bank

    Doubtful Assets: - 100% to the extent advance not covered by realizable value ofSecurity. In case of secured portion, provision may be made in the range of 20% to

    100% depending on the period of asset remaining sub standard. Loss Assets: - 100% of the outstanding.

    Overdue

    Any amount due to the bank under any credit facility is 'overdue' if it is not paid on

    the due date fixed by the bank.

    Difficulties with the non-performing assets:

    1. Owners do not receive a market return on their capital. In the worst case, if the bank

    fails, owners lose their assets. In modern times, this may affect a broad pool of

    shareholders.

    2. Depositors do not receive a market return on savings. In the worst case if the bank

    fails, depositors lose their assets or uninsured balance. Banks also redistribute losses to

    other borrowers by charging higher interest rates. Lower deposit rates and higher lending

    rates repress savings and financial markets, which hampers economic growth.

    3. Non-Performing loans epitomize bad investment. They misallocate credit from good

    projects, which do not receive funding, to failed projects. Bad investment ends up in

    misallocation of capital and, by extension, labor and natural resources. The economy

    performs below its production potential.

    4. Non-performing loans may spill over the banking system and contract the money

    stock, which may lead to economic contraction. This spillover effect can channelize

    through illiquidity or bank insolvency;

  • 7/27/2019 NPA Project Report

    13/78

    13 A report on Non-performing assets at Apex bank

    (a) When many borrowers fail to pay interest, banks may experience liquidity shortages.

    These shortages can jam payments across the country,

    (b) Illiquidity constraints bank in paying depositors e.g. cashing their paychecks.

    Banking panic follows. A run on banks by depositors as part of the national money stock

    become inoperative. The money stock contracts and economic contraction follows

    (c) Undercapitalized banks exceed the banks capital base.

    Lending by banks has been highly politicized. It is common knowledge that loans are

    given to various industrial houses not on commercial considerations and viability of

    project but on political considerations; some politician would ask the bank to extend the

    loan to a particular corporate and the bank would oblige. In normal circumstances banks,

    before extending any loan, would make a thorough study of the actual need of the party

    concerned, the prospects of the business in which it is engaged, its track record, the

    quality of management and so on. Since this is not looked into, many of the loans become

    NPAs.

    The loans for the weaker sections of the society and the waiving of the loans to farmers

    are another dimension of the politicization of bank lending.

    Most of the depositors money has been frittered away by the banks at the instance of

    politicians, while the same depositors are being made to pay through taxes to cover the

    losses of the bank.

    The effects of NPA are:-

    1. They decrease profitability.2. They reduce capital assets and lending limits.3. They increase loan loss reserves.4. They bring unwanted attention from government regulators.

  • 7/27/2019 NPA Project Report

    14/78

    14 A report on Non-performing assets at Apex bank

    An analysis of factors contributing to NPAs

    An analysis of the contributory factors resulting in the emergence of NPAs on a large

    scale amongst commercial banks and financial institutions would lead to the following

    conceptualization:

    1. PSBs performed creditably in respect of all parameters set for them. However, in

    the early 1990s, it emerged that PSBs were suffering from acute capital inadequacy and

    many of them had negative profitability. This is because the parameters set for their

    functioning were deficient and they did not project the paramount need for thesecorporate goals. Incorrect goal perception and identification led them to the wrong

    destination.

    2. The pre-reform era witnessed directed banking for PSBs which functioned under

    the overall control and direction of the Finance Ministry, which along with the Reserve

    Bank of India (RBI), decided/directed all aspects of the working of the banks, leaving

    little freedom to price their products in competition with each other, cater their products

    to segments of their choice, or invest their funds in their best interest as they determined.

    3. Since the 1970s, the SCBs of India functioned totally as captive capsule units cut

    off from international banking and unable to participate in the structural transformations,

    the sweeping changes, and the new types of lending products emerging in global banking

    institutions. Their personnel lacked needed training and knowledge resources required to

    compete with international players.

    4. Major policy decisions were taken externally by the Finance Ministry/RBI. The

    environment of receiving decisions from a political background as distinguished from a

    professional outfit prevented the best talents coming to occupy key positions.

  • 7/27/2019 NPA Project Report

    15/78

    15 A report on Non-performing assets at Apex bank

    5 The quantum of credit extended by the PSBs increased by about 160 times in the

    three decades after nationalization (from around 3000 crore in 1970 to 475 113 Crore on31 March 2000). The Banks were not sufficiently developed in terms of skills and

    expertise to regulate such growth and manage the diverse risks that emerged in the

    process.

    6 The need for organizing an effective mechanism to gather and disseminate credit

    information amongst the commercial banks was never felt or implemented. The archaic

    laws of secrecy of customer information prevented banks from publishing names of

    defaulters for common knowledge of the other banks in the system.

    7 Effective recovery from defaulting and overdue borrowers was hampered on account

    of a sizeable overhang component arising from infirmities in the existing process of debt

    recovery, inadequate legal provisions on foreclosure and bankruptcy and difficulties in

    the execution of court decrees. Legal remedies were beset with too many formalities and

    were very time-consuming.

    8 Effective corporate management was an alien concept. In respect of PSBs, the boards

    were ineffective and the only/main shareholder was the government of India. The

    government exercised multiple roles and concerns, and the instinct to act as a watchful

    shareholder and increase shareholders value of banks and financial institutions was never

    felt or experienced.

    9 Credit management on the part of the lenders to the borrowers to secure their genuine

    and bonafideinterests was not based on pragmatically calculated anticipated cash flows

    of the borrowers concern, while recovery of installments of term loans was not out of

  • 7/27/2019 NPA Project Report

    16/78

    16 A report on Non-performing assets at Apex bank

    profits and surplus generated but through recourse to the corpus of working capital of the

    borrowing concerns.

    10 Functional inefficiency was also caused due to overstaffing, manual processing of

    Bloated operations and a failure to computerize the banks in India, when elsewhere

    Throughout the world the system switched over to computerization of operations.

    Impacts of NPAs on the working of cooperative banks

    NPAs affected the profitability, liquidity and competitive functioning of public and

    private sector banks, and finally the psychology of the bankers in respect of their

    disposition towards credit delivery and credit expansion.

    Impact on profitability

    Cooperative banks incurred a total amount of Rs. 31 251 crore towards provisioning

    NPAs from 1 April 1993 to 31 March 2001. This has brought net NPAs to Rs.32 632

    crore or 6.2% of net advances. The enormous provisioning of NPAs together with the

    holding cost of such non-productive assets over the years has acted as a severe drain on

    the profitability of the PSBs. Equity issues of nationalized banks that have already tapped

    the market are now quoted at a discount in the secondary market. This has alternatively

    forced PSBs to borrow heavily from the debt market to build Tier II capital to meet

    capital adequacy norms, thus putting severe pressure on their profit margins. It is

    worthwhile to compare the aggregate figures of the 19 nationalized banks for the year

    ended March 2001, as published by RBI in its Report on Trends and Progress of Banking

    in India

  • 7/27/2019 NPA Project Report

    17/78

    17 A report on Non-performing assets at Apex bank

    Measures taken to deal with NPAs

    Dismantling of controls and deregulation of working of commercial banks,

    permitting entry of new private sector banks and permission for foreign banks to

    open more branches. This had the effect of opening Indian banking to global

    standards by making them function efficiently in a competitive environment. This

    was the initial step to create a structural framework for the PSBs to enable them to

    adjust to the new environment and turn into dynamic and self-reliant operating

    units.

    The process of deregulationfreed the banks from the control of the FinanceMinistryand RBI. The RBI, hereafter, acts as a regulator. In the year 1994, RBI

    further fine-tuned the process by constituting a separate Board of Financial

    Supervision (BFS) with the objective of segregating the supervisory role from the

    regulatory functions of RBI. Banks now operate independently in a competitive

    financial market, but have to comply with prudential norms and safeguards

    essential for their wellbeing.

    RBI made prudential norms,as conveyed by the Basel Accord of 1988,applicable to Indian banks. These included standards relating to capital adequacy,

    income recognition, asset classification and provisioning for non-performing

    assets. This had the effect of providing much-needed transparency about the state

    of affairs of each bank and enabled instant corrective measures to be executed.

    Banks were permitted to seek infusions of freshequityfrom the public with thegovernment retaining a 51% share of equity capital. A number of PSBs entered the

    market and raised Tier I and Tier II capital accordingly. This has created a new

  • 7/27/2019 NPA Project Report

    18/78

    18 A report on Non-performing assets at Apex bank

    class of stakeholder (albeit shareholders) vitally interested in the wellbeing of the

    banks and qualified/empowered to question the Board of Directors at the

    appropriate forum.

    Governance:RBI emphasized the paramount importance of accepting norms ofgood corporate governance by banks. While the Securities Exchange Board of

    India (SEBI) has introduced a general set of norms applicable to all companies

    including banking companies, RBI has further covered the special needs of

    banking companies by bringing out an appropriate set of standards.

    The Credit Information Bureau (India) Ltd.: In order to expedite credit andinvestment decisions by banks and financial institutions, and curb the accretion of

    fresh NPAs, the Credit Information Bureau (India) Ltd., (CIBIL) was set up by the

    State Bank of India in association with HDFC in August 2000. CIBIL was to be

    technology driven to ensure speedy processing, periodic updating and availability

    of error-free data at all times in the system. As a first step towards activating the

    CIBIL, it was decided to initiate the process of collection and dissemination of

    some relevant information within the existing legal framework. The RBI

    accordingly decided to constitute a group drawing representation from CIBIL, the

    Indian Banks' Association (IBA), select banks and FIs to examine the possibility

    of the CIBIL performing the role of collecting and disseminating information on

    the list of suit-filed accounts and the list of defaulters, including willful defaulters,

    which is presently handled by the Reserve Bank. The group is also expected to

    examine other aspects of information collection and dissemination, such as the

    extent, periodicity and coverage, and the feasibility of supplying information on-

    line to members in the future.

    Norms of lenders' liability:RBI has come out with broad guidelines for framingthe Fair Practices Code with regard to lenders' liability to be followed by

    commercial banks and financial institutions, emphasizing transparency and properassessment of borrowers' credit requirements. RBI has issued a draft of the model

    code and has advised the individual banks to adopt model guidelines for framing

    their respective Fair Practices Codes with the approval of their Boards. This is a

    balancing measure. It imposes self-discipline on the part of the banks, which will

    only indirectly prevent accounts turning into NPAs on account of the bank's own

    failures or wrong actions.

    Risk assessment and risk management: Since the year 1998, the RBI has beenmaking serious efforts towards evolving a suitable and comprehensive model for

    risk-management by the banks and to integrate this new discipline in the working

    systems of banks. The RBI has identified risk-prone areas in asset-liability

    management, credit management, changes in market conditions and counter-party

    and country risks and has evolved suitable models for managing all such risks.

    RBI has also evolved a system of Risk-based Supervision of Banks. It also advised

    banks on a parallel scheme for carrying out internal audit based on risk perception.

    E-banking and VRS:The influence of these areas of banking reforms may notappear directly relevant to a reduction of NPAs. However, computerization

    provides for data-accuracy and operational efficiency and results in a better

    Management Information Service (MIS). VRS rationalizes the work force, which

    in turn results in better productivity and operational efficiency.

    RBI Guidelines on Fair Practices Code for Lenders are applicable toSCBs/AIFIs (excluding RRBs and LABS): According to the Fair Practices Code,

    which is at the core of lender liability, the lenders must treat their borrowers fairly,

  • 7/27/2019 NPA Project Report

    20/78

    20 A report on Non-performing assets at Apex bank

    and when they do not, they can be subject to litigation by the borrower for a

    variety of reasons, inter alia, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, fraud

    and misrepresentation, and negligent loan processing and administration.

    Compromise settlement schemes:Banks are free to design and implement theirown policies for recovery and write-off incorporating compromise and negotiated

    settlements with the approval of their Boards, particularly for old and unresolved

    cases falling under the NPA category. The policy framework suggested by RBI

    provides for setting up of independent Settlement Advisory Committees headed by

    a retired judge of the High Court to scrutinize and recommend compromise

    proposals. Specific guidelines were issued in May 1999 to PSBs for one time non-

    discretionary and non-discriminatory settlement (OTS) of NPAs of the small

    enterprise sector. The scheme was operative up to September 30, 2000. (Public

    sector banks recovered Rs. 668 crore through compromise settlement under this

    scheme). Guidelines were modified in July 2000 for recovery of the stock of NPAs

    of Rs. 5 crore and less, as on 31 March 1997. (The above guidelines which were

    valid up to 30 June 2001, helped the public sector banks to recover Rs. 2 600 crore

    by September 2001). An OTS scheme covering advances of Rs. 25 000 and below

    continues to be in operation and guidelines in pursuance to the budget

    announcement of the Honorable Finance Minister providing for OTS for advances

    up to Rs.50 000 in respect of NPAs of small/marginal farmers are being drawn up.

    Circulation of information on defaulters: The RBI has put in place a system forperiodic circulation of details of willful defaults of borrowers of banks and

    financial institutions. This serves as a cautionary list while considering requests

    for new or additional credit limits from defaulting borrowing units and also from

    the directors/proprietors/partners of these entities. RBI also publishes a list of

    borrowers (with aggregate outstanding of Rs. 1 crore and above) against whom

  • 7/27/2019 NPA Project Report

    21/78

    21 A report on Non-performing assets at Apex bank

    banks and FIs have filed suits for recovery of their funds, as on 31 March every

    year. These measures serve as a negative basket of steps shutting off fresh loans to

    these defaulters.

    Recovery action against large NPAs: RBI advised public sector banks toexamine all cases of willful default of Rs. 1 crore and above and file suits in such

    cases, and file criminal cases in regard to willful defaults. Boards of Directors are

    required to review NPA accounts of Rs.1 crore and above with special reference to

    fixing of staff accountability.

    Special mention accounts: In a recent circular, RBI has suggested to the banks tohave a new asset category or special mention accounts for early identification of

    bad debts. This would be strictly for internal monitoring. Loans and advances

    overdue for less than one quarter and two quarters would come under this

    category. Data regarding such accounts will have to be submitted by banks to the

    RBI. However, special mention assets would not require provisioning, as they are

    not classified as NPAs. An asset may be transferred to this category once the

    earliest signs of sickness/irregularities are identified. This will help banks look at

    accounts with potential problems in a focused manner right from the onset of the

    problem, so that monitoring and remedial actions can be more effective. Once

    these accounts are categorized and reported as such, proper top management

    attention would also be ensured. Borrowers having genuine problems due to a

    temporary mismatch in funds flow or sudden requirements of additional funds

    may be entertained at the branch level and for this purpose, a special limit to tide

    over such contingencies may be built into the sanction process itself.

    Prepared as per accounting practices.

    This practice in some cases may lead to window dressing to cover up bad financialposition.

    This study is based only on 3 years NPA statement.NPA statement suffers from inherent weakness of accounting practices, such as their

    historical nature of matching principle etc

    amount on time.

    Necessary information on Standard, Sub-Standard, Doubtful, Loss Assets shouldbe given in time at regular intervals.

    The Bank should provide with Low rate of interest so that farmers can easily repaythe loan amount,

    It is appropriate to educate the customers, which will have a good impact on therecovery of loan.

    Bank should not encourage unsecured loans. Focus on high value NPA accounts can be done by improving quality of credit Bank should consider some additional strategies and policies to face challenges of

    the competitors in future, to improve the quality of its service of lending and
