 Executive Summary
Banks in India underwent a drastic change in terms of its working and policies after
liberalization. The field of Trade Finance and Credit Appraisal also witnessed these changes.
The project will deal with the development of understanding of credit appraisal policies
adopted by the bank. It will also help in improving knowledge about the credit appraisal
system and to know the patterns of credit appraisal in Bank of India.
This project report contains 5 chapters. The report begins with the introduction to the
company ,its area of operation, its products and services, its achievements, etc.
The second chapter is a detailed industry analysis of the banking industry which shows the
evolution, growth and current scenario and challenges faced by the banking industry. It also
covers the major players in the industry and their market shares and their performance.
The third chapter covers financial analysis of Bank of India which reveals the financial
performance of Bank of India during the year 2010 to 2012.The tools use for financial
analysis are ratio analysis and financial analysis. It also covers the comparative financial
analysis of Bank of India with Canara Bank.
The fourth chapters contains the detailed study of the project. As we know that no finance can
be made available without the credit appraisal of the project, thus this chapter talks about the
process flow of the Advances operation. The client proposal helps us to understand the
Analysis of Working Capital and Term Loans which forms the base for the advances made by
the bank. The various standards and ratios used by the bank are also analysed. On the
advances side, the Analysis of a proposal has been done to give a clear understanding of the
procedure followed at the bank.
The fifth chapter deals with conclusion and recommendations part which is very important
after analysis is made. I have also try to study the existing policies with the aim at finding
out how the working can be improved.

 Introduction
The project undertaken is “Analysis of Credit Appraisal at Bank of India”. The credit
appraisal process is the scientific way of giving the credit to corporate client by analysing the
credit worthiness of the company through different parameters. This project will give an
insight to the procedure followed at Bank of India to assess the credit worthiness of the
borrower.

I did my internship with Bank of India which is located in Noida Sec -9. The major reason for
choosing the Banking industry was to understand the working in the banks and also to gain
knowledge about banking industry and how it is helping the economy.

Due to recent surge in industrialization, the Indian economy is booming. To provide more
impetus to the industries, the government is encouraging their foray into various industries. In
order to fund the projects, the corporate depend on the credit and trade services provided by
the banks.

In the changing trade scenario, India has come up as an emerging player. There are great
potentials and opportunities in the trading sector on the domestic and international sector. The
economic growth of any country is dependent on its Import and Export. Thus providing need
based Credit is one of the most important factor helps exporter to make export orders and
importers to make purchases.

As finance has a risk attached, thus we need to appraise the proponent before lending any
credit this process is called Credit Appraisal which checks the need of finance for the
business. It involves appraisal of the background of the proponent, commercial, technical and
financial appraisal. Then the Term Loan / Working Capital Assessment is done to find the
limit of finance required.

The project describes about the process of credit appraisal for two different industries from
the information required to the processes involved. The project also details about the credit
policy and the credit rating process. A practical formulation of the credit proposal has been
done to provide a better understanding of the subject.

 BANK OF INDIA : COMPANY PROFILE

Bank of India (BoI) is a state-owned commercial bank with headquarters in Mumbai.

Government-owned since nationalization in 1969, It is India's 4th largest PSU bank,
after State Bank of India,Punjab National Bank and Bank of Baroda. Bank of India was

agreement with the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) to manage the BSE Clearing House. It is
an association that has blossomed into a joint venture with BSE, called the BOI Shareholding
Ltd. to extend depository services to the stock broking community.

Beginning with a paid-up capital of Rs.50 lakh and 50 employees, the Bank has made a rapid
growth over the years. It has evolved into a mighty institution with a strong national presence
and sizable international operations. In business volume, Bank of India occupies a premier
position among the nationalized banks.

Bank of India has several firsts to its credit. The Bank has been the first among the
nationalised banks to establish a fully computerised branch and ATM facility at the

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

BANKING INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

The Banking industry comprises of segments that provide financial assistance and advisory
services to its customers by means of varied functions such as commercial banking,
wholesale banking, personal banking, internet banking, mobile banking, credit unions,
investment banking and the like.

15
With years, banks are also adding services to their customers. The Indian banking industry is
passing through a phase of customers market. The customers have more choices in choosing
their banks. A competition has been established within the banks operating in India.

With stiff competition and advancement of technology, the services provided by banks have
become more easy and convenient. The past days are witness to an hour wait before
withdrawing cash from accounts or a cheque from north of the country being cleared in one
month in the south.

Banks are among the main participants of the financial system in India. Banking offers
several facilities & Opportunities. This section provides comprehensive and updated
information, guidance and assistance in all areas of banking in India.

Bank of Hindustan, set up in 1870, was the earliest Indian Bank . Banking in India on modern
lines started with the establishment of three presidency banks under Presidency Bank's act
1876 i.e. Bank of Calcutta, Bank of Bombay and Bank of Madras.

The commercial banking structure in India consists of: Scheduled Commercial Banks &
Unscheduled Banks. Banking Regulation Act of India, 1949 defines Banking as "accepting,
for the purpose of lending or investment of deposits of money from the public, repayable on
demand or otherwise and withdrawable by cheques, draft, order or otherwise."

The arrival of foreign and private banks with their superior state-of-the-art technology-based
services pushed Indian Banks also to follow suit by going in for the latest technologies so as
to meet the threat of competition and retain customer base.

The evolution of IT services outsourcing in the Indian banks has presently moved on to the
level of Facilities Management (FM). Banks now looking at business process management
(BPM) to increase returns on investment, improve customer relationship management (CRM)
and employee productivity.

For, these entities sustaining long-term customer relationship management (CRM) has
become a challenge with almost everyone in the market with similar products.

Historical Background

The first bank in India, though conservative, was established in 1786. From 1786 till today,
the journey of Indian Banking System can be segregated into three distinct phases. They are
as mentioned below:

· PHASE I - Early phase from 1786 to 1969 of Indian Banks

16
· PHASE II - Nationalization of Indian Banks and up to 1991

· PHASE III - Indian Financial & Banking Sector Reforms after 1991.

PHASE I:

The General Bank of India was set up in the year 1786. Next came Bank of Hindustan and
Bengal Bank. The East India Company established Bank of Bengal (1809), Bank of Bombay
(1840) and Bank of Madras (1843) as independent units and called it Presidency Banks.
These three banks were amalgamated in 1920 and Imperial Bank of India was established
which started as private shareholders banks, mostly Europeans shareholders. During the first
phase the growth was very slow and banks also experienced periodic failures between 1913
and 1948. There were approximately 1100 banks, mostly small. To streamline the functioning
and activities of commercial banks, the Government of India came up with The Banking
Companies Act, 1949 which was later changed to Banking Regulation Act 1949 as per
amending Act of 1965 (Act No. 23 of 1965). Reserve Bank of India was vested with
extensive powers for the supervision of banking in India as the Central Banking Authority.
During those day’s public has lesser confidence in the banks. As an aftermath deposit
mobilization was slow. Abreast of it the savings bank facility provided by the Postal
department was comparatively safer. Moreover, funds were largely given to the traders.

PHASE II:
Government took major steps in this Indian Banking Sector Reform after independence. In
1955, it nationalized Imperial Bank of India with extensive banking facilities on a large scale
especially in rural and semi-urban areas. Second phase of nationalization Indian Banking
Sector Reform was carried out in 1980 with seven more banks. This step brought 80% of the
banking segment in India under Government ownership.
The following are the steps taken by the Government of India to Regulate Banking
Institutions in the Country:

· 1949: Enactment of Banking Regulation Act.

· 1955: Nationalization of State Bank of India.

· 1959: Nationalization of SBI subsidiaries.

· 1961: Insurance cover extended to deposits.

· 1969: Nationalization of 14 major banks.

· 1971: Creation of credit guarantee corporation.

· 1975: Creation of regional rural banks.

· 1980: Nationalization of seven banks with deposits over 200 crore.

17
After the nationalization of banks, the branches of the public sector bank India raised to

approximately 800% in deposits and advances took a huge jump by 11,000%.Banking in the

sunshine of Government ownership gave the public implicit faith and immense confidence
about the sustainability of these institutions.

PHASE III

This phase has introduced many more products and facilities in the banking sector in its
reforms measure. In 1991, under the chairmanship of M Narasimham, a committee was set up
by his name which worked for the liberalisation of banking practices.

The country is flooded with foreign banks and their ATM stations. Efforts are being put to
give a satisfactory service to customers. Phone banking and net banking is introduced. The
entire system became more convenient and swift. The financial system of India has shown a
great deal of resilience. It is sheltered from any crisis triggered by any external
macroeconomics shock as other East Asian Countries suffered. This is all due to a flexible
exchange rate regime, the foreign reserves are high, the capital account is not yet fully
convertible, and banks and their customers have limited foreign exchange exposure

Banking industry is the back bone for growth of any economy. The journey of Indian
Banking Industry has faced many waves of economic crisis. Recently, we have seen the
economic crisis of US in 2008-09 and now the European crisis. The general scenario of the
world economy is very critical. It is the banking rules and regulation framework of India
which has prevented it from the world economic crisis

STRUCTURE OF INDIAN BANKING INDUSTRY

Banking Industry in India functions under the sunshade of Reserve Bank of India - the
regulatory, central bank.In India the banks are being segregated in different groups. Each
group has their own benefits and limitations in operating in India. Each has their own
dedicated target market. Few of them only work in rural sector while others in both rural as

18
well as urban. Many even are only catering in cities. Some are of Indian origin and some are
foreign players.

6(STATE BANK OF INDORE ALSO MERGED RECENTLY) belong to SBI & associates
group and 1 bank (IDBI Bank) is classified as other public sector bank. Welfare is their
primary objective.

Almost 80% of the business are still controlled by Public Sector Banks (PSBs). PSBs are still
dominating the commercial banking system. Shares of the leading PSBs are already listed on
the stock exchanges

Private Sector Banks

The RBI has given licenses to new private sector banks as part of the liberalisation process.

21
These banks are owned and run by the private sector. Various banks in the country such as
ICICI Bank, HDFC Bank etc. An individual has control over there banks in preparation to the
share of the banks held by him.

Private banking in India was practiced since the beginning of banking system in India. The
first private bank in India to be set up in Private Sector Banks in India was IndusInd Bank. It
is one of the fastest growing Bank Private Sector Banks in India. IDBI ranks the tenth largest
development bank in the world as Private Banks in India and has promoted world class
institutions in India.

The first Private Bank in India to receive an in principle approval from the Reserve Bank of
India was Housing Development Finance Corporation Limited, to set up a bank in the private
sector banks in India as part of the RBI's liberalization of the Indian Banking Industry. It was
incorporated in August 1994 as HDFC Bank Limited with registered office in Mumbai and

Foreign Banks In India

Foreign banks have been operating in India for decades with a few of them having operations
in India for over a century. The number of foreign bank branches in India has increased

22
significantly in recent years since RBI issued a number of licenses - well beyond the
commitments made to the World Trade Organisation. The presence of foreign banks in India
has benefited the financial system by enhancing competition, resulting in higher efficiency.
There has also been transfer of technology and specialised skills which has had some
"demonstration effect" as Indian banks too have upgraded their skills, improved their scale of
operations and diversified into other activities. At a time when access to foreign currency
funds was a constraint for the Indian companies, the presence of foreign banks in India
enabled large Indian companies to access foreign currency resources from the overseas
branches of these banks. Also with the presence of foreign banks, as borrowers in the money
market and their operation in the foreign exchange market has resulted in the creation and
deepening of the inter-bank money market. Now, it is the challenge for the supervisors to
maximize the advantages and minimize the disadvantages of the foreign banks' local presence

Cooperative banks in India

The Cooperative bank is an important constituent of the Indian Financial System, judging by
the role assigned to co operative, the expectations the co operative is supposed to fulfil, their
number, and the number of offices the cooperative bank operate. Though the co operative
movement originated in the West, but the importance of such banks have assumed in India is
rarely paralleled anywhere else in the world. The cooperative banks in India plays an
important role even today in rural financing. The businessess of cooperative bank in the urban
areas also has increased phenomenally in recent years due to the sharp increase in the number
of primary co-operative banks.
Co operative Banks in India are registered under the Co-operative Societies Act. The
cooperative bank is also regulated by the RBI. They are governed by the Banking Regulations
Act 1949 and Banking Laws (Co-operative Societies) Act, 1965.

Current trend in banking

Currently banking in India is generally 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. In terms of quality of assets and capital adequacy, Indian banks
are considered to have clean, strong and transparent balance sheets relative 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 volatility but without any fixed 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. One may also expect M&As,
takeovers, and asset sales.
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.

Growth trends
26
The growth of banking in the coming years is likely to be more qualitative than quantitative,
according to the report. Based on the projections made in the "India Vision 2020" prepared by
the Planning Commission and the Draft 10th Plan, the report forecasts that the pace of
expansion in the balance-sheets of banks is likely to decelerate

The Indian banking market is growing at an astonishing rate, with assets expected to reach
US$1.5 trillion by 2014. An expanding economy, middle class, and technological innovations
are all contributing to this growth. The country’s middle class accounts for over 352 million
people. In correlation with the growth of the economy, rising income levels, increased
standard of living, and affordability of banking products are promising factors for continued
expansion. The Indian banking Industry is in the middle of an IT revolution, focusing on the
expansion of retail and rural banking. Players are becoming increasingly customer-centric in
their approach, which has resulted in innovative methods of offering new banking products
and services. Banks are now realizing the importance of being a big player and are beginning
to focus their attention on mergers and acquisitions to take advantage of economies of scale
and/or comply with Basel II regulation. Indian banking industry assets are expected to reach
US$1.5 trillion by 2014 and are poised to receive a greater infusion of foreign capital. The
banking industry should focus on having a small number of large players that can compete
globally rather than having a large number of fragmented players.

Technology In Banking

In the six decades of independence banking has evolved in four different phases. During the
fourth phase important initiatives were taken with regard to improve the banking system. The
entry of foreign banks resulted in a paradigm shift in the way banking was done in India. The
arrival of foreign banks and private banks with there superior state of the art technology
pushed the Indian banks to adopt latest technology in market, so that they could retain there
customer base.

Information technology has been used under two different avenues in banking. One is
communication and connectivity and other is Business process reengineering. Information
technology enables sophisticated product development, better market infrastructure,
implementation of reliable techniques for control of risks and help the financial
intermediaries reach geographically distant and different market.

In India banks as well as other financial entities entered the world of information technology
and with Indian financial network(INFINET). INFINET, a wide area satellite network (WAN)
using VSAT(very small aperture technology) was jointly set up by Reserve Bank of India and
Institute for Development and research for banking in1999. INFINET which was initially
comprised only public sector banks was opened for participation by other categories of
members. The information technology act 2000 has given legal recognition for creation,
transmission, and retention of electronic data to be treated as a valid proof in the court of law

27
The Reserve Bank of India has assigned priority to the up gradation of technology in the
banks. Substantial progress has been made for developing a modern, efficient, integrated and
secure payment and settlement system for the financial service sectors. Modernization of
clearing and settlement system through MICR based cheque clearing, popularizing electronic
clearing services (ECS) and integration of RBI-EFT scheme with funds transfer schemes of
bank, introduction of centralized fund management system (CFMS) are significant milestones
in this regard.

The coverage of electronic clearing services has been significantly effective to encourage non
paper based fund and develop a centralized facility for effective payment. The scheme for
electronic fund transfer operated by the reserve bank has been augmented and now it is
present in 13 cities. The centralized fund management system (CFMS) which would enable
banks to obtain account wise and centre wise position of their balances has been implemented
in a phased manner from November 2001.

Membership of INFINET has been opened to all the banks in addition to those in the public
sector banks. At the base of all the interbank message transfers using the INFINET is the
structured financial messaging system (SFMS). It would serve as a secure communication
carrier with templates for intra and interbank messages in a strict message format that will
facilitate straight through messaging. All the interbank messages will be stored and switched
to central hub at Hyderabad while the intra bank messages will stored in the bank gateway.
Security standards of SFMS will match the international standards.

Information technology has immense untapped potential in banking. Strengthening the

information technology in banks could improve the effectiveness of asset liability of banks.
Building up of a related data base would strengthen and enhance the forecasting of liquidity
of banks at the branch level. This could enhance the risk management capabilities of banks.

Legal/ Regulatory Issues Related To Banking

Banks works under various legal frameworks most important of them are, the Banking
regulation act 1949, Basel II norms, RBI act, Negotiable Instruments act.

Banking Regulation Act 1949

The banking regulation act was passed as banking companies act and it came into force in
16/3/49. Subsequently it was changed to Banking regulation act on 1/3/66.

28
BASEL II Norms
Basel II is the second of the Basel accords which are recommendation on the banking laws
and regulations issued by banking committee on banking supervision. The purpose of Basel II
norms is to create international standards that banking regulators can use when creating
regulations about how much capital does banks needs to put aside to guard against the types
of financial and operational risks banks face. Advocates of Basel II believe that such an
international system can help protect the international financial system from many types of
problem that arise should a bank or a series of banks collapse. In practice Basel II attempts to
accomplish this by setting up rigorous risks and capital management requirement designed to
ensure that the banks hold capital reserves appropriate to the risks the banks exposes itself to
through its investment and lending practices. Generally speaking this rules says that the
greater the risk the bank exposes itself, the greater the capital bank requires to safeguard its
solvency and overall economic stability.

Opportunities and Challenges for Players

The bar for what it means to be a successful player in the sector has been raised. Four
challenges must be addressed before success can be achieved. First, the market is seeing
discontinuous growth driven by new products and services that include opportunities in
credit cards, consumer finance and wealth management on the retail side, and in fee-based
income and investment banking on the wholesale banking side.
These require new skills in sales & marketing, credit and operations. Second, banks will no
longer enjoy windfall treasury gains that the decade-long secular decline in interest rates
provided. This will expose the weaker banks. Third, with increased interest in India,
competition from foreign banks will only intensify. Fourth, given the demographic shifts
resulting from changes in age profile and household income, consumers will increasingly
demand enhanced institutional capabilities and service levels from banks.

1. Rivalry among existing firms

With the process of liberalization, competition among the existing banks has increased.
Each bank is coming up with new products to attract the customers and tailor made Loans

33
 are provided. The quality of services provided by banks has improved drastically.

2. Potential Entrants

Previously the Development Financial Institutions mainly provided project finance

and development activities. But they now entered into retail banking which has resulted
into stiff competition among the exiting players.

3. Threats from Substitutes

Competition from the non-banking financial sector is increasing rapidly. The threat of
substitute product is very high like credit unions and in investment houses. There are other
substitutes as well banks like mutual funds, stocks, government securities, debentures,
gold, real estate etc.

4. Bargaining Power of Buyers

Corporate can raise their funds through primary market or by issue of GDRs, FCCBs. As a
result they have a higher bargaining power. Even in the case of personal finance, the
buyers have a high bargaining power. This is mainly because of competition.

5. Bargaining Power of Suppliers

With the advent of new financial instruments providing a higher rate of returns to
the investors, the investments in deposits is not growing in a phased manner. The
suppliers demand a higher return for the investments.

6. Overall Analysis

The key issue is how banks can leverage their strengths to have a better future. Since the
availability of funds is more and deployment of funds is less, banks should evolve new
products and services to the customers. There should be a rational thinking in sanctioning
Loans, which will bring down the NPAs. As there is a expected revival in the Indian
economy Banks have a major role to play. Funding corporate at a low cost of capital is a
special requisite.

Market Analysis

34
The Product Mix:

The banks primarily deal in services and therefore, the formulation of product mix is required
to be in the face of changing business environmental conditions. The changing psychology,
the increasing expectations, the rising income, the changing lifestyles, the increasing
domination of foreign banks and the changing needs and requirements of customers at large
make it essential that they innovate their service mix and make them of world class. Against
this background, we find it significant that the banking organizations minify, magnify
combine and modify their service mix.

Product Portfolio:

The bank professionals while formulating the product mix need to assign due weight-age to
the product portfolio. By the concept product portfolio, emphasis is on including the different
types of services/ schemes found at the different stages of the product life cycle. The portfolio
denotes a combination or an assortment of different types of products generating more or less
in proportion to their demand. The quality of product portfolio determines the magnitude of
success. It is excellence of bank professionals that help them in having a sound product
portfolio.

We find the composition of a family sound, if members of all the age groups are given due
place. Like this, the composition or blending of a service mix is considered to be sound, if
well established and likely to be profitable schemes are included in the mix. The bank
professionals are supposed to perform the responsibility of composing the same. An
organization with a sound product portfolio gets a conducive environment and successes in
increasing the sensitivity of marketing decisions.

If the banks rely solely on their established services and schemes, the multidimensional
problems would crop up in the long run because when the well established services/schemes
would start saturating or generating losses, the commercial viability of banks would of
course, be questioned. It is in this context, that we find designing of a sound product portfolio
essential to an organisation. We can’t deny that the product portfolio of the foreign banks is
found sound since they keep their eyes moving. The innovation, diffusion, adoption and
elimination processes are taken due care. The public sector commercial banks need to
innovate their service and this makes a strong advocacy in favour of analyzing the product
portfolio.

The Price Mix

In the formulation of product mix, the pricing decisions occupy a place of outstanding
significance. The pricing decisions or the decisions related to interest and fee or commission

35
charged by banks are found instrumental in motivating or influencing the target market. The
Reserve Bank of India and the Indian Banking Association are concerned with the
regulations. The rate of interest is regulated by the RBI and other charges are controlled by
the Indian Banking Association. To be more specific in the Indian setting, we find this
component of the marketing mix significant because the banking organizations are also
supposed to sub serve the interests of weaker sections and the backward regions. The public
sector commercial banks in particular are supposed to play developmental role with societal
approach. It is natural that this specific role of the public sector commercial banks
complicates the problem of pricing.

Promotion Mix

In the formulation of marketing mix the bank professionals are also supposed to blend the
promotion mix in which different components of promotion such as advertising, publicity,
sales promotion, word-of-mouth promotion, personal selling and telemarketing are given due
weight age. The different components of promotion help bank professionals in promotion the
banking business.

The Place Mix

This component of the marketing mix is related to the offering of services. The two important
decision making areas are making available the promised services to the ultimate users and
selecting a suitable place for bank branches.

The selection of a suitable place for the establishment of a branch is significant with the
viewpoint of making the place accessible and in addition, the safety and security provisions
are also found important. The banking organizations are not free to open a branch since the
Reserve Bank of India regulates the subject of branch expansion but so far as the
management of branch is concerned, the branch managers have option to select a place which
is convenient to both the parties, such as the users and the bankers. In the Indian perspective,
the protection to the bank’s assets and safety to the users and bankers need due weight age.
The vulnerable area or regions need adequate provisions to make the branch safe. The
management of office is also found significant with the viewpoint of making the services
attractive. The furnishing, civic amenities and parking facilities can’t be overlooked.

Thus, the place mix is found to be an important decision making area which requires due
attention, both at macro and micro levels.

The People

36
Sophisticated technologies, no doubt, inject life and strength to our efficiency but the
instrumentality of sophisticated technologies start turning sour if the human resources are not
managed in a right fashion. Generation of efficiency is substantially influenced by the quality
of human resources..

While fixing criteria for selection, banks assign due weight age to the ethical values. The
education and training facilities have been innovated.

The foreign banks and the private sector commercial banks reward for efficiency and at the
same time also demotivate the inefficient bankers. This helps them in improving the
efficiency of even the inefficient people. The development of human resources makes the
ways for the formation of human capital. Incentives, of course, inject efficiency and the
organizations offering more incentives succeed in motivating the people.

MACRO vs MICRO ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

37
PROBLEMS FACED BY INDIAN ECONOMY

I. FALL IN SAVINGS RATIO

The savings ratio is the % of income that is saved not spent. A fall in the savings ratio implies
that consumer spending is increasing; often this is financed through increased borrowing.

Effects Of Fall In Savings Ratio

 Higher Level Of Consumption

This results in increase in Aggregate Demand. The increase in AD will cause an increase in
economic growth and lower unemployment. However, rising Aggregate Demand may cause
inflation. Inflation will occur when growth is faster than the long run trend rate. This is now a
potential problem in the India. Inflation has recently gone above 7.50%

 Boom And Bus

A fall in the savings ratio is usually accompanied by a rise in confidence. It is the rise in
confidence which encourages borrowing and consumers to run down savings. Therefore,
there is always a danger that a falling savings ratio can be a precursor to a boom and bust
situation.

 Economy More Sensitive To Interest Rates

With a fall in the savings ratio interest rate changes will have a bigger effect in reducing
spending. This is because levels of borrowing are higher and therefore a rise in interest rates
has a significant impact on increasing interest repayments. Also, higher rates will not be
increasing incomes from savings as much.

 Balance Of Payment

38
With higher levels of consumer spending, there will be an increase in imports. Therefore this
will lead to deterioration in the current account. The current account deficit could put
downward pressure on the exchange rate in the long term. However, some people argue a fall
in the savings ratio is not a problem, but, it is just a reflection of strong economy and
booming housing market, which increases scope for equity withdrawal.

II. INFLATION
Inflation is posing a serious challenge to the economic growth of India. The WPI inflation
rate flared up during the period driven by significant increase in the prices of commodities,
primary articles and manufactured products, even though very small part of global crude
price increase has been passed on to the Indian consumers.

III. GLOBAL RECESSION

It appears that Europe, Japan and the US are entering into recession. Falling house prices,
crisis in the financial system, and lower confidence could lead to a sharp downturn, with the
worst still to come. Many argue that India’s growth is not so dependent on growth in the
West. However, the Indian stock markets have been hit by the global crisis. India’s growing
service sector and manufacturing sector would be adversely impacted by a global downturn.

IV. RISE IN CRUDE PRICES

How global crude prices would behave probably has no easy answers; however we believe
that the current challenging and uncertain macro-economic conditions does not lead Indian
financials into a state of crisis. But continued rise in crude prices and its resultant impact on
inflation, interest rates and government finances has the potential to do so. Hence, crude price
remains the key risk to our positive stance on the Indian financials.

In the last couple of months oil prices have surged by 45% from US$ 100 to US$ 145 (and
now back to US$ 115). India currently imports 70% of its crude requirement, resulting in
pressure on government coffers on back of rising crude prices.

V. DEPRECIATING INR
Surge in crude prices has severely impacted current account deficit of the country. This
coupled with the outflow of FII investments has resulted in INR to depreciate sharply against
dollar further fueling inflation.

39
IMPACT OF ECONOMIC PROBLEMS ON INDIAN FINANCIALS

The current macro-economic conditions are expected to result in

 SLOWDOWN IN CREDIT GROWTH

 IMPACT ON MARGINS OF BANKS
 PREASURE ON CREDIT QUALITY
 SLOWDOWN IN CREDIT GROWTH

While the rise in interest rates should lead to a moderation in demand for credit, Indian banks
too are exercising caution while lending.. Risks and uncertainties in the system have
increased given the higher crude and commodity prices and its inflationary impact. This
would curtail consumption, which would impact economic growth adversely. Further higher
rates will not only impact the profitability of Indian corporate but also impact IRRs of various
proposed capex projects. This coupled with elections next year could lead to some
postponement of capex plans of corporate, leading to negative impact on demand for credit.

Higher rates have particularly impacted retail loan growth.

• IMPACT ON MARGINS OF BANKS

During the past 18 months, CRR has increased by 400 bps to 9.0% currently and RBI has
also discontinued with interest payment on CRR balances. Every 50 bps hike in CRR
generally negatively impacts margins by ~5 bps.

In fact in an environment, where liquidity is tight, interest rates are at elevated levels and risk
premiums have increased, the banks tend to regain the pricing power. This would not only
help the banks to adequately price in risks but also help protect their margins. Apart from
hiking PLRs, banks are also resorting to reprising (in fact right-pricing) the loans that were
sanctioned well below PLRs. Significant portion of fixed rate loans would also get re-priced
over the period of 12-18 months.

• PRESSURE ON CREDIT QUALITY

40
Higher lending rates are expected to impact credit quality for the banking system. The extent
of the impact on credit quality would also be bank specific given the loan mix (retail vs.
corporate), proportion of unsecured lending, credit profile of corporate loan book and
industry wise exposure. Indian banks’ fundamentals are relatively resilient with better risk
management systems, dramatically improved asset quality, stronger recovery mechanisms
(legal provisions) and with adequate capitalization and provisioning.

Even Certain sectors (like real estate, airlines industry) might feel the stress due to the
changing macro environment and rise in interest rates. Many companies where crude forms a
key raw material component are expected to get hit more severely. Similarly, sectors like real
estate and SMEs, which are interest rate sensitive, would face higher delinquencies if interest
rates strengthen further by 100-200 bps.

NECESSARY INITIATIVES TAKEN BY RBI & MINISTRY OF FINANCE TO

TACKLE ECONOMIC PROBLEMS

As most of economists feel that the most horrible problem which India is facing
currently is inflation which has crossed 7.50%. To come out of these problems RBI and
ministry of finance and other relevant government and regulatory entities are taking various
initiatives which are as follows...

• RBI MONITORY POLICY

With the introduction of the Five year plans, the need for appropriate adjustment in monetary
and fiscal policies to suit the pace and pattern of planned development became imperative.
The monitory policy since 1952 emphasized the twin aims of the economic policy of the
government:

 Spread up economic development in the country to raise national income and standard
of living, and
 To control and reduce inflationary pressure in the economy.

This policy of RBI since the First plan period was termed broadly as one of controlled
expansion, i.e.; a policy of “adequate financing of economic growth and at the same time the
time ensuring reasonable price stability”. Expansion of currency and credit was essential to
meet the increased demand for investment funds in an economy like India which had
embarked on rapid economic development. Accordingly, RBI helped the economy to expand
via expansion of money and credit and attempted to check in rise in prices by the use of
selective controls.

OBJECTIVES OF MONITORY POLICY

41
  Price Stability
 Monitory Targetting
 Interest Rate Policy
 Restructuring Of Money Market
 Regulation Of Foreign Exchange Market

WEAPONS OF MONITORY POLICY

Central banks generally use the three quantitative measures to control the volume of credit in
an economy, namely:

 Raising bank rates

 Open market operations and
 Variable reserve ratio

However, there are various limitations on the effective working of the quantitative measures
of credit control adapted by the central banks and, to that extent, monetary measures to
control inflation are weakened. In fact, in controlling inflation moderate monetary measures,
by themselves, are relatively ineffective. On the other hand, drastic monetary measures are
not good for the economic system because they may easily send the economy into a decline.

In a developing economy there is always an increasing need for credit. Growth requires credit
expansion but to check inflation, there is need to contract credit. In such a encounter, the best
course is to resort to credit control, restricting the flow of credit into the unproductive,
inflation-infected sectors and speculative activities, and diversifying the flow of credit
towards the most desirable needs of productive and growth-inducing sector. It should be
noted that the impression that the rate of spending can be controlled rigorously by the
contraction of credit or money supply is wrong in the context of modern economic societies.
In modern community, tangible, wealth is typically represented by claims in the form of
securities, bonds, etc., or near moneys, as they are called. Such near moneys are highly liquid
assets, and they are very close to being money. They increase the general liquidity of the
economy. In these circumstances, it is not so simple to control the rate of spending or total
outlays merely by controlling the quantity of money. Thus, there is no immediate and direct
relationship between money supply and the price level, as is normally conceived by the
traditional quantity theories. When there is inflation in an economy, monetary restraints can,
in conjunction with other measures, play a useful role in controlling inflation.

• FISCAL POLICY

42
Fiscal policy is another type of budgetary policy in relation to taxation, public borrowing, and
public expenditure. To curve the effects of inflation and changes in the total expenditure,
fiscal measures would have to be implemented which involves an increase in taxation and
decrease in government spending. During inflationary periods the government is supposed to
counteract an increase in private spending. It can be cleared noted that during a period of full
employment inflation, the aggregate demand in relation to the limited supply of goods and
services is reduced to the extent that government expenditures are shortened.

Along with public expenditure, governments must simultaneously increase taxes that would
effectively reduce private expenditure, in an effect to minimise inflationary pressures. It is
known that when more taxes are imposed, the size of the disposable income diminishes, also
the magnitude of the inflationary gap in regards to the availability of the supply of goods and
services. In some instances, tax policy has been directed towards restricting demand without
restricting level of production. For example, excise duties or sales tax on various
commodities may take away the buying power from the consumer goods market without
discouraging the level of production. However, some economists point out that this is not a
correct way of combating inflation because it may lead to a regressive status within the
economy.

As a result, this may lead to a further rise in prices of goods and services, and inflation can
spread from one sector of the economy to another and from one type of goods and services to
another. Therefore, a reduction in public expenditure, and an increase in taxes produces a
cash surplus in the budget. Keynes, however, suggested a programme of compulsory savings,
such as deferred pay as an anti-inflationary measure. Deferred pay indicates that the
consumer defers a part of his or her wages by buying savings bonds (which, of course, is a
sort of public borrowing), which are redeemable after a particular period of time, this is
sometimes called forced savings. Additionally, private savings have a strong disinflationary
effect on the economy and an increase in these is an important measure for controlling
inflation. Government policy should therefore, include devices for increasing savings. A
strong savings drive reduces the spendable income of the consumers, without any harmful
effects of any kind that are associated with higher taxation. Furthermore, the effects of a large
deficit budget, which is mainly responsible for inflation, can be partially offset by covering
the deficit through public borrowings. It should be noted that it is only government borrowing
from non-bank lenders that has a disinflationary effect. In addition, public debt may be
managed in such a way that the supply of money in the country may be controlled. The
government should avoid paying back any of its past loans during inflationary periods, in
order to prevent an increase in the circulation of money. Anti-inflationary debt management
also includes cancellation of public debt held by the central bank out of a budgetary surplus.

Fiscal policy by itself may not be very effective in combating inflation; therefore a
combination of fiscal and monetary tools can work together in achieving the desired outcome.

• DIRECT MEASURES

43
Direct controls refer to the regulatory measures undertaken to convert an open inflation into a
repressed one. Such regulatory measures involve the use of direct control on prices and
rationing of scarce goods. The function of price control is a fix a legal ceiling, beyond which
prices of particular goods may not increase. When ceiling prices are fixed and enforced, it
means prices are not allowed to rise further and so, inflation is suppressed. Under price
control, producers cannot raise the price beyond a specified level, even though there may be a
pressure of excessive demand forcing it up.

In times of the severe scarcity of certain goods, particularly, food grains, government may
have to enforce rationing, along with price control. The main function of rationing is to divert
consumption from those commodities whose supply needs to be restricted for some special
reasons; such as, to make the commodity more available to a larger number of households.
Therefore, rationing becomes essential when necessities, such as food grains, are relatively
scarce. Rationing has the effect of limiting the variety of quantity of goods available for the
good cause of price stability and distributive impartiality.

Another control measure that was suggested is the control of wages as it often becomes
necessary in order to stop a wage-price spiral. During galloping inflation, it may be necessary
to apply a wage-profit freeze. Ceilings on wages and profits keep down disposable income
and, therefore the total effective demand for goods and services. On the other hand,
restrictions on imports may also help to increase supplies of essential commodities and ease
the inflationary pressure. However, this is possible only to a limited extent, depending upon
the balance of payments situation. Similarly, exports may also be reduced in an effort to
increase the availability of the domestic supply of essential commodities so that inflation is
eased.

In general, monetary and fiscal controls may be used to repress excess demand but direct
controls can be more useful when they are applied to specific scarcity areas. As a result, anti-
inflationary policies should involve varied programmes and cannot exclusively depend on a
particular type of measure only.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS

 FINANCIAL ANALYSIS

This section will show, how Bank Of India has done financially over the last three
years(2010-2012). I have calculate all the financial ratios including the banking ratios also, to
show how Bank Of India fair up against its competitors. To do that I have used the last three
years balance sheet, profit and loss account, and cash flow statement of Bank Of India.

LIQUIDITY RATIOS
A class of financial metrics that is used to determine a company's ability to pay off its short-
terms debts obligations. Generally, the higher the value of the ratio, the larger the margin of
safety that the company possesses to cover short-term debts.

1. CURRENT RATIO
This ratio is a rough indication of a firm's ability to service its current obligations. Generally, the
higher the current ratio, the greater the "cushion" between current obligations and your Company's
ability to pay them. The composition and quality of current assets is a critical factor in the analysis
of your Company's liquidity. It is calculated as Total current assets divided by total current
liabilities.
Current Ratio = Current Assets

2011 49723.21 12974.69 3.83

2012 46176.95 13243.43 3.49

Interpretation:- From the above table it can be observed that the current ratio of Bank of
India stood at 4.32 ,3.83,3.49 in the year 2010,2011,2012 respectively. This shows that bank

46
has enough current assets available to pay off its short term obligations. The current ratio has
declined marginally to 3.83 in 2011 and has further declined to 3.49 in 2012 because of
increase in short term investments,borrowings and other current liabilities. So it can be
inferred that bank is effectively utilising the available funds.

2. LIQUID RATIO

It is also known as the ‘‘Quick Ratio’’ or "Acid Test" ratio; it is a refinement of the current
ratio and is a more conservative measure of liquidity. The ratio expresses the degree to which
your current Company's current liabilities are covered by the most liquid current assets.
Generally, any value of less than 1 to 1 implies a "dependency" on inventory or other current
assets to liquidate short-term debt. It is calculated as Cash plus trade receivables divided by
total current liabilities.

Liquid Ratio = Cash + Trade Receivables

2012 34711.26 13243.43 2.62

47
Interpretation: - A quick ratio of 1:1 is considered favourable because for every rupee of
current liability,there is atleast one rupee of liquid assets. A higher value of ratio is considered
favourable. Here this ratio stood higher than one during the study period i.e 3.64 in 2010,2.88
in 2011 and 2.62in 2012.although the ratio shows a declining trend but it is still above the
benchmark level.This shows that bank has enough liquidity to service its short term debt and
is utilising its funds in a rational manner.

3. CREDIT DEPOSIT RATIO

This ratio indicates how much of the advances lent by banks is done through deposits. It is
the proportion of loan-assets created by banks from the deposits received. The higher the
ratio, the higher the loan-assets created from deposits. Deposits would be in the form of
current and saving account as well as term deposits. The outcome of this ratio reflects the
ability of the bank to make optimal use of the available resources

Interpretation :- An ideal credit deposit ratio should range between 65- 75 %.

48
.the above table exhibits the credit deposit ratio of the bank during 3 years. This ratio stood at
72.04% ,70.33% and 76.93% in the year 2010,2011,2012 respectively. It shows that Bank of
India is performing well. It can also be observed that in the year 2012 the credit deposit ratio
has slightly crossed 75%(stipulated level as per RBI guidelines).This shows that in this year
bank has borrowed some fund from outside. Nevertheless, the overall credit performance of
the bank is satisfactory.

PROFITABILITY RATIOS

A class of financial metrics that are used to assess a business's ability to generate earnings as
compared to its expenses and other relevant costs incurred during a specific period of time.
For most of these ratios, having a higher value relative to a competitor's ratio or the same
ratio from a previous period is indicative that the company is doing well.

1. Operating Profit Ratio

A ratio used to measure a company's pricing strategy and operating efficiency. Operating
margin is a measurement of what proportion of a company's revenue is left over after paying
for variable costs of production such as wages, raw materials, etc. A healthy operating margin
is required for a company to be able to pay for its fixed costs, such as interest on debt. It Is
Also known as "operating profit margin."

Calculated as:- Operating Profit Ratio = Operating Profit X 100

2012 6693.95 28480.67 23.50

Interpretation :- From the data in the above table, it can be observed that the operating
profit ratio of the bank is showing a declining trend. Although the operating profits have
increased but not exactly with same proportion as compared to increase in sales. This may be
due to increase in the interest expenses and other operating expenses particularly the staff
expenses in the year 2011 and 2012. Therefore the bank should check on unnecessary
operating expenses to correct this situation and to provide a sufficient return.

2. NET PROFIT RATIO

This ratio indicates the Net margin on a sale of Rs.100. It is calculated as follows:
Net Profit Ratio = Net Profit X 100
Sales

This ratio helps in determining the efficiency with which affairs of the business are being
managed. An increase in the ratio over the previous period indicates improvement in the
operational efficiency of the business. The ratio is thus on effective measure to check the
profitability of business. A low profit margin indicates a low margin of safety: higher risk that
a decline in sales will erase profits and result in a net loss.

2012 2677.52 28480.67 9.40

Interpretation :- The net profit ratio of the bank stood at 9.74% & 9.40% in the year 2010 &
2012 respectively. This is due to higher provisions and interest expense in these years. But in
the year 2011 the bank has performed well with net profit reaching the double digit mark at
11.44% as the bank had maintained a tighter control at interest and other indirect expenses.
Although the net profit ratio shows a fluctuating trend but the overall profitability of the bank
is satisfactory as per industry trend.

3. RETURN ON ASSETS

Returns on assets ratio is the net income (profits) generated by the bank on its total assets
(including fixed assets). The higher the proportion of average earnings assets, the better
would be the resulting returns on total assets.

Return On Assets = Operating profit(net of provisions n contingencies)

2012 2677.52 384535.47 0.70%

Interpretation:- The Return On Assets ratio of Bank of India are 0.63%,0.71% and 0.70% in
the year 2010,2011,2012 respectively. The return on assets increased in 2011 due to huge
increase in total assets and net profits in this year as compared to 2012 wherein return on
assets fell to 0.70% as net profit couldn’t increase with the same proportion as of total
assets.thus it lead to the conclusion that overall efficiency or profitability of the bank is
improving.

4. INTEREST SPREAD

Interest spread is the difference between the average lending rate and the average borrowing
rate for a bank or other financial institution. This is very similar to interest margin. If a bank's
lending was exactly equal to its borrowings (i.e. deposits plus other borrowing) the two
numbers would be identical. In reality, bank also has its shareholder's funds available to lend,
but at the same time its lending is constrained by reserve requirements.
Changes in the spread are an indicator of profitability as the spread is where a bank makes its
money

Interest Spread = (Interest income ÷ Interest earning assets) - (Interest expense ÷interest
bearing liabilities

Interpretation :-From the figures exhibited in the above table,it can be observed that interest
spread of the bank stood at 4.57% in 2010,increased to 5.06% in 2011due to greater
proportionate increase in interest earned as compared to interest expended and in 2012 it fell
from 5.06% to 4.43% as interest earned had not increased in the same proportion as interest
expended. Thus it can be inferred that interest spread of the bank is fluctuating.

53
ACTIVITY RATIOS

Activity ratios are calculated to measure the efficiency with which the resource of a firm have
been employed. These ratios are also called turnover ratios because they indicate the speed
with which assets are being turned over into sales

1. FIXED ASSETS TURNOVER RATIO

Measure of the productivity of a firm, it indicates the amount of sales generated by each
Rupee spent on fixed assets, and the amount of fixed assets required to generate a
specific level of revenue. Changes in the ratio over time reflect whether or not the firm is
becoming more efficient in the use of its fixed assets.

Interpretation :- The fixed assets turnover ratio of the bank stood at 7.82 in 2010, it
increased to 9.19 in 2011 and has further increased to 10.28 in 2012. Therefore it can can be
inferred that fixed assets ratio of the bank is consistently increasing and It indicates that
during the period of study fixed assets have been effectively used in the bank without much
additional investment and also the capital is not blocked in fixed assets.

2010.In 2011 it has decreased marginally to 6.19 and after that it has increased to 7.41 in
2012. It shows a fluctuating trend. But overall efficiency of bank is satisfactory and is
utilising its Total Assets effectively.

LEVERAGE RATIO

55
Any ratio used to calculate the financial leverage of a company to get an idea of the
company's methods of financing or to measure its ability to meet financial obligations. There
are several different ratios, but the main factors looked at include debt, equity, assets and
interest expenses. A ratio used to measure a company's mix of operating costs, giving an idea
of how changes in output will affect operating income.

1. DEBT- EQUITY RATIO

A measure of a company's financial leverage calculated by dividing its total liabilities by

stockholders' equity.
A high debt/equity ratio generally means that a company has been aggressive in financing its
growth with debt. This can result in volatile earnings as a result of the additional interest
expense. If a lot of debt is used to finance increased operations (high debt to equity), the
company could potentially generate more earnings than it would have without this outside
financing. If this were to increase earnings by a greater amount than the debt cost (interest),
then the shareholders benefit as more earnings are being spread among the same amount of
shareholders. However, the cost of this debt financing may outweigh the return that the
company generates on the debt through investment and business activities and become too
much for the company to handle. This can lead to bankruptcy, which would leave
shareholders with nothing.
The debt/equity ratio also depends on the industry in which the company operates. For
example, capital-intensive industries such as auto manufacturing tend to have a debt/equity
ratio above 2, while personal computer companies have a debt/equity of under 0.5.

2012 350330.25 20961.79 16.71

Interpretation:- The ratio shows the extent to which funds have been provided by long-term
creditors as compared to the funds provided by the owners. Here the Debt-Equity ratio for the
above period is always high. This shows that the bank is more relying on outside funds as
compared to internal sources of capital in its capital structure. From the long-term lenders
point of view this ratio is not satisfactory

CAPITAL ADEQUACY RATIO

A bank's capital ratio is the ratio of qualifying capital to risk adjusted (or weighted) assets.
National regulators tracks banks CAR to ensure that it can absorb reasonable amount of loss
57
and are complying with the banking statutory capital requirements. In the simplest
formulation, a bank's capital is the "cushion" for potential losses, which protect the bank's
depositors or other lenders. The RBI has set the minimum capital adequacy ratio at 10%for
all banks. A ratio below the minimum indicates that the bank is not adequately capitalized to
expand its operations. The ratio ensures that the bank do not expand their business without
having adequate capital.

11.95% in the year 2010,2011,2012 respectively.It indicates that during the study period bank
has maintained a healthy capital adequacy ratio which is above 10% as prescribed by RBI
(under Basel II ).

INTEREST COVERAGE RATIO

This Ratio indicates the interest paying capability of firm .The interest coverage ratio is a
measure of the number of times a company could make the interest payments on its debt with

58
its earnings before interest and taxes, also known as EBIT. The lower the interest coverage
ratio, the higher the company's debt burden and the greater the possibility of bankruptcy or
default

CASH FLOW FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES

Interpretation :- The above cash flow statement of Bank of India reveals that the net cash
flow from operating activities stood at 8439.81 in the year 2010.It has declined to 6133.09 in
2011. This may be due to greater proportionate increase in advances as compared to interest
earned this year. Also operating expenses were at higher side during this year. In 2012 the net
cash from operating activities has further declined and has become negative. Here it may be
noted that despite a great increase in interest earned, cash flow from operating activities have
declined. This is due to greater increase in borrowings this year which has lead to more
interest expense. Also deposits has not been increased in the same proportion as compared to
advances this year.

CASH FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES:-

Interpretation :- The net cash flow from investing activities has been in negative figures in
all the 3 years of the study period. It stood at -224.72 in 2010,which is followed by a great
decline in 2011 and has reduced to -720.22 . Although its has increased to tune of 103.55
crores in 2012 but the net cash flow from investing activities is still in negative figures and it
stood at -616.67. the huge outflow of cah from investing activities in the year 2011 is due to a
huge investment in subsidiaries and fixed assets.

CASH FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES:-

60
 Interpretation :- The net cash flow from financing activities during the period of study has
been showing a declining trend. It stood at 1253.78 crores in 2010, which has reduced to
771.3 in 2011 and in is followed by a huge decline of 742.59 in 2012 and has reduced to
28.71 crores in this year. This is due to greater dividend payments and interest payment on
IPDI and subordinate bonds and upper tier II bonds during the year 2011 and 2012.

COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF BANK OF INDIA WITH CANARA BANK

efficiently.

8. TOTAL ASSETS TURNOVER RATIO :- The total assets turnover ratio is also showing
similar trend for both the banks. But if looking at the figures for both the banks for total assets
turnover ratio during the study period it stood at 6.50, 6.19, 7.41 for Bank of India and at 7.08,
6.86, 8.25 for Canara Bank it can be inferred that Canara bank is utilising its total assets in a
better way as compared to Bank of India.

9. DEBT –EQUITY RATIO :- The Debt-Equity ratio of Bank of India stood at 17.72, 18.56,
16.71 and that of Canara Bank stood at 16.57, 15.38, 15.10 for the year 2010,2011,2012
respectively. Both the banks This indicates that both the banks are more relying on outside funds
as compared to internal sources of capital in its capital structure have a very high debt- equity
ratio. But as compared to Bank of India, Canara Bank has a lesser reliance on the debt.

10. CAPITAL ADEQUACY RATIO :- This ratio determines the capacity of a bank in terms of
meeting with the liability and other risks such as credit risk, operational risk. The above table
reveals that capital adequacy ratio stood at 12.94%, 12.17%, 11.95% for Bank of India and that
of Canara Bank it stood at 13.43%, 15.38% ,13.76% for the year 2010,2011,2012 respectively.
As this ratio measure of how much capital is used to support the banks' risk assets.

64
 The analysis reveals that both the banks have maintained a healthy ratio beyond the minimum
limit of 10% prescribed by RBI (under Basel II).but it is higher for canara bank as compared to
Bank of India.this indicates that Canara bank is the more efficient in terms of meeting with the
liability and other risks such as credit risk, operational risk as compared to Bank of India.

11. INTEREST SPREAD :- Interest spread is the difference between the average lending rate
and the average borrowing rate for a bank or other financial institution. Changes in the spread are
an indicator of profitability as the spread is where a bank makes its money. The interest spread of
Bank of India stood at 4.57% , 5.06% ,4.43% and that of Canara Bank stood at 3.32%, 3.47%,
3.80% during the study period. Clearly it reveals that Bank of India has greater interest spread as
compared to Canara bank.

firm. The interest coverage ratio of both the banks shows similar trend. It stood at 1.21, 1.25, 1.18
for Bank of India and that of Canara Bank it stood at 1.29, 1.33 ,1.18 for the year 2010,2011,2012
respectively. Although it is slightly less than the ideal ratio of 1.5 for both the banks but on an
average we can say that this ratio is satisfactory for both the banks as it is above 1.

COMPARATIVE CASH FLOW STATEMENT ANALYSIS

NET CASH FLOW FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES:-

66
Interpretation :- The net cash flow from operating activities of Bank of India shows a
declining trend as it stood at 8439.81crores in 2010 and has further reduced to 6133.09 crores
in 2011 and reached to negative in 2012 at -1702.55crores. whereas in canara bank the net
cash flow from operating activities shows as fluctuating trend as it stood at 4694.39 crores in
2010 which has increased to 8527.34crores in 2011 and then in 2012 it shows a huge fall in
the cash flow and consequently has reached to negative figures at -832.22 crores .This may
be due to increase in interest and operating expenses.

NET CASH FLOW FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES :-

Interpretation :- The Net cash flow from investing activities for both the banks during the
study period has been showing a declining trend and is in negative figures. But the reduction
over the years in cash flow from investing activities in Canara bank is much lower than in
Bank of India. This shows that Canara bank is enjoying a better return on its investments and
is investing rationally.

NET CASH FLOW FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES:-

Interpretation :- The Net cash flow from financing activities for Bank of India is showing a
decreasing trend during the study period but has never turned negative. Whereas in case of
Canara bank it shows a fluctuating trend. In the year 2010 it is negative and stood at -1628.
75 crores whereas it has improved to 2600.78 crores in 2011 but it has further declined to
-1554.94 crores. This is due to higher dividend payment and interest payment on Tier I and
Tier II bonds and there has been no inflow during this period. Therefore in can be inferred
that Bank of India is doing good in financial activities as compared to Canara Bank.

RESEARCH PROJECT

69
PROJECT DETAILS
The project assigned to me at Bank Of India was “Analysis Of Credit Appraisal”. Credit
Appraisal is the process of calculating the creditworthiness of a business or an organization
before providing any Loans & advances/project finance.

I was placed in credit department under senior manager Mr. K.K Garg

During the first week I was assigned random tasks like updating data updation, entering dates
into excel sheet regarding last review done and due date for next review working capital/cc
limits,term loan and stock audit report; updating occupational codes for various customers of
the bank,preparing cover letters for bank guarantee etc. I was also shown various
files,documents,reports,memos,forms and applications used in the bank for various
operations in different departments. The major purpose for this entire exercise was to make
me familiar with the bank ,its operations,esp. in the credit deptt. and to familiarize with the
banking terms and abbreviations. This was an interesting experience for me.

In the second week I was given various files containing documents regarding proposals for
working capital limit enhancement/review,proposals for review of term loans advanced to
various customers of the bank. I went through all these files in details and cleared all my
queries regarding it from my mentor. Also I went through various other reports and
documents,financials that makes a part of credit appraisal process.

Later, in the third week I was assigned the task of making proposals for working capital
enhancement/review with existing limits for its customers on their request and for the
customers whose reviews for credit facilities were pending. During my entire training period
I made a total of 5 proposals and the entire exercise was a great learning experience and for
which I was appreciated by the chief manager,senior manager and other staff.

In the meantime I was exposed to forex deptt. wherein I use to sit with Mr. Vijay kumar
(incharge of forex deptt) and observe their working. He also made me learn to work on the
FINACLE (ERP software used in Bank Of India). There I learnt how forex transactions are
done,how the payments are made and received on behalf of customers,how the forward
contracts are booked and how the inter communication between the banks of parties
concerned with bank’s customers. For the few days I was also made to call the treasury and
take the forex transaction rates except the card rates (card rates are the basic rates for forex
transactions which the treasury issues daily) on the request of the customers who have to
export goods or book forward contracts.

In the last week I was sent to administration deptt. to learn how fresh accounts for customers
are opened,what are the various documents required for that,how the cheque books ,ATM
pin/password are issued. I also took various queries from the customers and successfully
solved them by giving various explanations and clarifications.

70
Overall it was a great experience to work in a public sector bank and a good learning for me.

The details of the project are as under:-

Advances (Credit Appraisal)

Credit Appraisal is the process of calculating the creditworthiness of a business or an
organization.

Credit Appraisal involves a wide variety of financial analysis techniques, including ratio and
trend analysis as well as the creation of projections and a detailed analysis of cash flows.
Credit appraisal also includes an examination of collateral and other sources of repayment as
well as credit history and management ability.

Before approving a commercial loan, a bank will look at all of these factors with the primary
emphasis being the cash flow of the borrower. A typical measurement of repayment ability is
the debt service coverage ratio. The debt service coverage ratio divides this cash flow amount
by the debt service (both principal and interest payments on all loans) that will be required to
be met.

Another criteria involved in the process of credit appraisal is determination of credit rating
which means assessing the credit worthiness of an individual, corporation, or even a country.
Credit ratings are calculated from financial history and current assets and liabilities.
Typically, a credit rating tells a lender or investor the probability of the subject being able to
pay back a loan. A poor credit rating indicates a high risk of defaulting on a loan, and thus
leads to high interest rates or the refusal of a loan by the creditor.

The ratings are of two types- external ratings and internal ratings. As the name implies
external ratings are given by external rating agencies like Moody’s, Standards and Poors etc.
Internal ratings are designed by the institution which requires it. Immaterial of the source of
rating whether internal or external it should be robust to be accepted as a reliable tool. For
corporate borrowers, the criteria for assessing risk are well known: profitability, growth,
industry outlook, competitive advantages, management and shareholders, in addition to the
standard set of financial and operational performance ratios.

A rating system can also serve as a tool for credit policy. For instance, some minimum rating
might be required to grant a loan.

It is this process which tries to evaluate the credentials and needs of the evaluator; the
business opportunity is made available to the bank in the form of Client Description. Bank on
submission of the Client description do a feasibility study of the project and check the
viability and the needs of the Customer.

Credit Policy at Bank of India

The bank has been working on its credit priorities which have been changed with the
changing times to cope up with the changes. The credit priorities for the bank stand as:

 Maintenance of asset quality

 Maintaining growth and reasonable risk adjusted returns on credit exposures
 Retaining/Improving the Market share
 Thrust on priority sector lending

Bank is conscious of the risk-return spread, thus bank has to judiciously set priorities in terms
of asset quality and return maximization. With the changing needs, Bank has kept an open
policy towards unfocussed assets. Asset quality priority calls for value driven culture with
conservative risk strategy, whereas market share priority calls for volume driven and
aggressive credit strategy. At the present situation, bank has to have a mix of both.

The purpose for the credit needs to be ascertained, with adherence to the guidelines and
directives.

Credit Delivery

The credit requirements may be dispensed in any of the following modes –

 Sole Banking Arrangements – In account, where we remain to be sole lenders, the

account with ratings “AAA” (LC1 to LC2) and “AA” (LC3 to LC4).
 Multiple Banking – In an arrangement where borrower desires to avail credit from
other banks, without a formal consortium arrangement. The borrower has to furnish
details from time to time. The credit from other banks should not exceed 10% of the
working capital limits. Also, exposure for working capital needs should not exceed
75% of the total working capital requirements of the borrower.
 Consortium Lending – It’s a framework where banks have the freedom to frame the
ground for lending.
 Syndication – It is an arrangement between two or more lending institutions to
provide a credit facility using common loan documentation.

74
Credit Thrust

The Bank of India has been proactively involved in lending to the priority sector to make sure
it meets the target prescribed by GOI/RBI which presently are –

 Priority sector target of 40% of net Banks credit.

 Exposure to agriculture not less than 18% of net Bank credit, and direct finance to
agriculture should not be less than 13.5% of net bank credit.
 Exposure to weaker sections not less than 10% of net bank credit.
 Export credit target of 12% of net Banks credit and etc.

Bank of India has well laid policies, which are reviewed periodically some of which are as
follows –

 Increasing finance for production as well as investment for agriculture finance.

 Priority is given to Infrastructure under priority sector financing.
 Focus is on Low risk short duration exposures
 Bank gives certain concessions to have better customer relations.
 Bank has made efforts to make the process faster, by encouraging issuance of Kisan
Credit Cards.
 Bank has been experimenting with innovative/area based schemes to improve lending
 Bank has made many tie-ups with corporate, NGOs, NBFCs in order to focus on
different areas of finances.

The Changing Market Realities

Bank of India reviews the policies to be able to revise them as per the changing market
scenario. With the changing times, the bank has shifted their focus on to major corporate
clients with less risk. The corporate financing opens up ample opportunities in terms of
financing mergers, acquisitions, IPO financing etc. The thrust also lies on the post sale
finance services both for supplier and buyer.

The need to have exposures of the bank linked with products such as factoring and forfeiting
to ensure risk free recovery.

Bank of India does not encourage funding in areas of harmful/depleting substances. Also, the
bank tries not to finance areas which are affected by government policies.

Analysis of Credit Appraisal

75
Credit Appraisal is the process which is required for appraisal of the proponent to assess his
credit needs. The process of Credit Appraisal at Bank of India is no different. It involves
appraising the background of the Management, doing a technical and financial feasibility
study. Appraisal thus compromises two distinct segments –

 Appraising the acceptability of the customer

 Assessment of Customer Credit needs.

Main components of Credit Appraisal

Background of the Management

It involves knowing the borrower by either obtaining status reports from previous bankers or
by scrutinizing the management in case of corporate. The check is made to make sure that
borrower/ promoters name does not appear in the ECGC list of defaulters.

Commercial Appraisal

It involves detailed study about the product and its market, to understand the demand-supply
situation, the competition in the segment, effect of government policies on the industry etc.

Technical Appraisal

In case of project involving manufacturing or production, technical appraisal is carried out.

The TEV study is not done in case of service or for industries where he good does not go
through a state change. Also, there are exceptions where the TEV study is not required by the
sanctioning authority.

The traditional industries which are running over generations and whose viability cannot be
questioned can be exempted from TEV study. But it would be required for some new venture
with not much information on its know-how, its demand-supply pattern. Thus in all new and
Greenfield projects TEV study is carried out, even then if the company is reputed and the
Term Loan requirement is less than Rs. 20 Cr, TEV study can be waived off.

Its validity is for one year provided the scope of the project does not change.

76
Financial Appraisal

The second segment of Credit Appraisal i.e. Assessment of Customer Credit needs, requires
the financial performance of the proponents. The financial study gives us the clear idea about
the ability of the proponent to absorb unanticipated financial cost. Along with the cost of the
project, the financial projections are scrutinized to ascertain the financial need for the project.

The Performance Indicators are –

 Profitability Ratios
 Debt-Equity Ratios
 Debt Service Coverage Ratio
 Break-Even Point
 Profit / Volume Ratio
 Pay Back Period
 Benefit Cost Ratio
 Internal Rate of Return
 Sensitivity Analysis

In case of higher limits, few other ratios are calculated –

 Current Ratio
 Total outside Liabilities (TOL) / Equity Ratio
 EBITDA / Interest Ratio
 PBT / Net Sales Ratio
 (Inventory + Receivables) / Sales Ratio
 DSCR ( Debt Servicing Coverage Ratio)

In financial appraisal, the projections are scrutinized so as to have an achievable Sales,

creditors, and holding level.

The Ratios are properly analyzed in order to have them within limits else an explanation for
the same is taken from the proponent. To make them more meaningful, the ratios are put
against the industry average. The positive and the negative factors which could affect the
financial need of the customer are considered.

Some important aspects to be analyzed –

77
  Investment in subsidiaries should not be more than 10% of the Tangible Net Worth;
else the excess amount is deducted from the Net worth for computing various ratios.
 Financial figures are reworked in order to avoid any misinterpretations.
 The position of contingent liabilities, disputed tax liabilities and their impact on the
performance.

Types of facilities of Credit Delivery

Generally bank gives the following types of facilities to the customer:

The types of facilities would comprise of term loans , demand loans, O/Ds, cash credit,
WCDL, advances against bills, channel credit, invoice discounting/financing, discounting of
future cash flows/rent receivables and lines of credit, L/Cs, guarantees , acceptance
facilities ,cash management etc

These credit facilities can be broadly divided into two types:

 Funded credit facilities

 Non- funded credit facilities

Funded credit facilities

These facilities mainly consist of:

1. Working capital ( fund based)

 The working capital includes the following :
 Cash credit hypothecation of stocks
 EPC-sublimit of CC
 Cash credit hypothecation of book debts
 FBP/FBD/ODF OBC
 FBN-DP/DA 90 days

2. Term loans

Non- funded credit facilities

These facilities mainly consist of –

 Guarantee
 LC-inland/ foreign DP/DA 180 days

Analysis of assessment of Working Capital Limits

78
In Bank of India, the working capital requirement of the borrower is assessed using different
methods, based on the limits.

Turnover Method

Borrowers with a credit limit of less than Rs. 5 Cr, the working capital requirement is
computed as 25% of the projected annual turnover, of which bank provides 4/5th (i.e. 20% of
the projected annual turnover) and the remaining 1/5th is contributed by the borrower as
margin.

On an average the average business cycle assumed by the bank is 3 months; the bank is
flexible to consider the working capital limits in case of longer business cycle.

Level of Holding / MPBF

In this method of working capital assessment, bank determines the level of holding of
inventories by looking into the past levels of holding for inventory and receivables. In case of
A rated accounts with fund-based limits exceeding Rs 5 crores, cash flow statements would
be obtained and scrutinized. Cash DSCR and cash interest coverage ratios may also be
worked out and commented in the proposal.

Cash Budget System

The assessment of working capital requirement may be done on the basis of the projected
cash budget statement (annual) comprising of the projected receipts and payments for the
next 12 months on account of: Business operations, Non- business operations, Cash flow
from capital accounts, Sundry items

Analysis of assessment of Term Loan

The appraisal process of a term loan is a little different form the appraisal process of working
capital. A few more factors have to be considered for the term loan appraisal in addition to the
other details like borrower’s profile, credit rating etc.

For providing term loan facilities, a few more factors have to be considered. They are the
funded debt/equity ratio, the DSCR both for the project and the company, as a whole as also
the period of repayment should be given due weight-age. Also the cash-flow statements are to
be obtained and analyzed in all accounts with limits of Rs5 crores and above or wherever
needed

Risks associated with the borrowal accounts like critical inputs risk, operational risk,
production process risk, marketing and labour risks are to be analyzed and taken into account
in the assessment.

98
The following things are taken into consideration while appraising the term loan –

 Project particulars
 Cost of source of finance,
 Amount of advance and purpose
 Repayment schedule
 Details of security/ value of security/margin: basis of valuation
 Comments on the project
 Project revenue, profitability and DSCR
 Marketing viability
 Project implementation schedule along with present status of reports
 Availability of refinance

Analysis of Credit Proposal of Term Loan

Proposal of R&R Infra Private Limited

company is under PPL (Public Private Partnership).

The Credit Proposal along with major sections from A to J, with all sections together
accounting for a total of 36 customized headings which contain data depending on the credit
proposal requirement for that project. Example – The Term loan requirement for this project
does not require Working Capital Assessment.

Borrower Profile

The first section named A is Borrower Profile, which contains the basic details about the
borrower i.e. Name of Account, Constitution(Private/Public), Business Activity(Example –
Construction of roads and highways), Business and Account establishment dates, Credit Risk
Grades, Group and Directors Information, Consortium (Yes/No), Multiple Banking
Arrangement (Yes/No).

The XYZ LTD. Public Limited (Unlisted) is into Construction of Roads and Highways. It
was established in 2004 and has been in business with the bank since 2006. The Risk Grades
assigned for Borrower Risk Grade is LC6 and for Borrower Pricing Grade is LC7. The Group
for the project is a Joint venture between public and private firms. Mr. K. Singh is the
Managing Director and it is a consortium lending with the market share as 9.09%.

The XYZ LTD. Limited is submitting a new request for a fund based loan of Rs. 10000 lacs.

Facilities and Security Cover

The third section named C is Facilities and Security Cover. Under facilities it covers the
limits sanctioned, the pricing, the outstanding amount, and over dues if any. Also it covers the
Repayment of Term Loan.

Repayment of 48 unequal quarterly installments commencing from June 2012. The door to
Term Loan door period is 16.5 years. The tail period is 15.5 years. Total project period is
32 years.

Under Security Cover, the borrower is required to provide the principal and collateral
security. But in cases collateral can be exempted.

In principal security it usually covers the current assets of the company, whose value is
ascertained and acts as a security cover against the credit provided to the borrower. In case of
consortium, since there are many banks so each bank has to find out their share depending
upon the share of loan granted i.e. the total project cost is Rs.150000 lacs and the loan share
is 9.09%.

Thus the security value as per Bank of India loan share comes out to be 9.09% of Rs.150000
equal to Rs.13646 lacs.

Guarantor may be required to provide security against credit, but it is again not a mandate
and depends upon project.

The fourth section named D is Exposure, which provides details about the Borrower’s

Both the Borrowers Exposure and Group Exposure needs to be within the limits sanctioned as
per the Credit Policy.

Conduct/Value of the Account is very important criteria in deciding the Rate of Interest. It
takes into account the conduct, utilization of limits as well as the earnings made.

Utilization Last Year Percentage Current Year Percentage

Earnings

Interest 444 912

Other Income 0.73 25

Total 444.73 937

Yield % 9.51 9.76

The Low Yield is on account of ROI being linked to the Government Securities, as it is a
Public Private Partnership, so the ROI charged is low.

Favorable factors

 The project is a joint venture between XYZ LTD. and Government of Rajasthan, with
promoters having robust experience in project development and implementation.
 The government of Rajasthan has accorded high priority for development and up
gradation of infrastructure and has thus created state road development funds to
provide balance investment.
 Investment is expected to be recovered through the levy of toll fees.

Financial Position of XYZ Infra

The project is an effort to improve the road infrastructure. It is a joint venture of the public
and private institution.

Paid-up Capital

The paid up capital is constant at Rs. 5000 lacs at the end of FY 2008, and is estimated to
increase to Rs. 25800 lacs by FY 2009 and to Rs. 28300 lacs by FY 2010.

103
The company is planning to raise the amount by IPO/Private Placement for funding the
project cost. The timing for IPO would depend on market conditions. Thus in case of delay in
IPO/Private Placement process, the promoters will provide an undertaking for arranging the
equity requirement of the capital.

The year FY 2008 is the first year of operations. The revenues for the same will start coming
from the toll collected on the completed stretches. The revenues earned for the year 2007-
2008 was Rs. 929 lacs and were estimated to Rs. 7500 lacs for the Year 2008-2009. The sales
were found to be in line to achieve the estimated sales.

Other Income of Rs 114 consisted of interest on Fixed Deposits.

Important Ratios

Debt-Equity Ratio – There is an increase in project cost due to increase in the price of raw
material (i.e. Bitumen) from Rs 150000 lacs to Rs 161800 lacs. The increase in cost would be
met by the sponsors. Thus the DER ratio comes out to be 2.12.

Interest Service Coverage Ratio – The ISCR for the project is 0.29 for FY 2010 and at 0.42
for the FY 2011. The low ISCR ratio is acceptable as the company has made provision for
payment of interest in the form of Financial Security Fund and also Debt Service Reserve
Account (DSRA) has been factored in the project cost.

With operations going to full scale, the company should improve the ISCR Ratio.

106
Debt Service Coverage Ratio – The Average DSCR for the project is 1.67. With other projects
in line, the average DSCR is expected to go above 2, which is acceptable.

Analysis of Term Loan Assessment

The project is a joint venture between the government and private institution. It is a part of
the initiative taken by the Government for improving the roads and infrastructure to promote
tourism. The estimated cost of the project is 150000 lacs.

Project Cost (Rs. In lacs)

Equity IPO 5000
Debt Interest free sub-debt 24000
Government
Sub-Debt from Banks/FI’s 5000
Sub-Debt from XYZ LTD. 4000
Term Loans from Banks/FI’s 110000

The company has taken a Term loan of 110000 lacs by a consortium of 12 banks. With our
share at Rs. 10000 lacs(9.09%).

The project cost increased from Rs. 150000 lacs to Rs. 161800 lacs on account of increase in
the raw material. The increase will be offset by the saving initiated by the company of Rs.
9900, and the remaining Rs. 11800 lacs, part of which Rs 2000 lacs will be met by the
Government and remaining Rs. 9800 lacs will be met by the sub-debt from the sponsors.

As Security, the term loan has a first pari passu charge on the assets of the project. The value
of security under our share is Rs. 13646 lacs. The company is also required to maintain
insurance for the cost and expenses incurred for management of the risks.

The price charged is 9.5%, which is then linked to the Government Securities. This pricing is
sector specific and as infrastructure is priority sector for the Bank. The interest rates are kept
low by linking it to the Government Securities.

The project appraisal finds that the substantial stretches have been completed before time.
Toll collection has commenced. The Average DSCR for the project works out to be 2.34

107
The company is servicing interest in spite of losses, from the Financial Security Fund made
available by the government.

In the process, a complete viability study of the project as in this case the road viability is
studied in terms of its connecting ends and the purpose it serves in comparison to the existing
road links in terms of shorter route etc. The purpose for undertaking the project is studied in-
depth to calculate the amount of advance. Also the study of expenses as in this case:

 Civil Work Cost – The civil cost with provision for contingencies and price escalation.
 Land Acquisition and Rehabilitation expenses – Cost of acquiring the land and
implementing the rehabilitation program.
 Preliminary and Pre-Operative Expenses – The expenses incurred for project
development and administrative expenses.
 Interest during Construction – The amount is estimated and the company has to make
provisions for effecting the payment before the start of operations.

The current status, the proposed improvements and estimated benefits of the project are
studied.

Traffic Assessment

In order to assess the potential of the project, a traffic assessment study is done. This helps us
to understand the feasibility of the project. The traffic volume has been arrived by
multiplying with the seasonal variation factor to arrive at Annual Average Daily Traffic
(AADT). The growth rate is then identified based on the study done on the traffic pattern.

Project Appraisal, viability, profitability projections, DSCR

The average DSCR works out to be 2.37, with a minimum of 1.28 in the first year of
operation. With the traffic study the growth potential for traffic has been identified.

The project period provides a revenue tail of 17 years to mitigate any unforeseen risks. Thus
the project is economically viable and technically feasible.

Sensitivity Analysis

The project is subject to toll revenue and operating cost risks thus we do a sensitivity analysis

Security

The principal security is the charge on current assets i.e. movable, tangible, intangible assets,
receivables, cash and investment.

An Escrow account is maintained into which all the investment in the project, and all project
revenues and proceeds are deposited.

Debt Service Reserve Account

The company is also asked to maintain a DSRA from the commencement of operations to
meet the debt service requirements. An amount equal to the principal and interest for one
quarter is maintained. Amount in DSRA shall be utilized only in case of short fall in cash
flows for meeting the debt service requirements.

Industry Perception

An efficient transportation system is a pre-requisite for sustained economic development.

Transportation system includes roads, railways, waterways etc. Roads are considered the
primary means of transportation in the country due to easy accessibility. On an estimate
around 61% of the total freight and 86% of the total passenger traffic is carried by roads.

109
India has the second-largest road network in the world, aggregating 3.34 million km. In the
decreasing order of the volume of traffic movement, the road network can be divided into
National Highways, State Highways, Major district roads and Rural and other roads.

Roads are the preferred mode of transportation in India. Road Transport has emerged as the
dominant segment in India’s transportation sector. The sector has plays a major role in the
country GDP.

The State Highways are secondary system of road transportation, providing linkages to the
national highways, connecting important towns, tourist centers and ports. Major district roads
run within the district connecting areas of production with the markets and providing
interconnectivity between the rural areas and district headquarters.

The secondary system of roads carried 40% of the total road traffic, although they constitute
around 18% of the total road length. They contribute significantly to the rural economy and
thus to the industrial development of the country by enabling movement of raw materials and
products.

Branch Recommendations

The company is an initiative of the government to improve the infrastructure with the
objective of making the state a preferred destination for tourism.

The company is also responsible for improvement, rehabilitation, and maintenance of the
project roads and the sponsors has a proven track record in the infrastructure sector.

The PDA (Partnership and Development Agreement), authorizes the company to collect the
toll fees from the users of the Project Roads and transfer the project roads at the end of the
Project period.

Considering the viability of the project, acceptable DSCR, DSRA provision, experience and
track record of the promoters and tail period of 17 years, the Term Loan limit of Rs. 10000
lacs is given to the company.

110
Management of the Company

The Board of Director’s are from the Government bodies and XYZ LTD.. This is JV 50:50
between the public and private so the management does not stand as guarantors.

It is the Private body which needs to be studied i.e. XYZ LTD..

XYZ LTD. – It is a premier financial institution with the objective of developing projects in
the infrastructure sector. The key promoters are Central Bank of India, HDFC, and UTI. The
company undertakes projects in the following broad business segment –

 Commercialization of Infrastructure projects

 Financial Services ranging from project financing, investment banking etc.
The company is a premier in financing Infrastructure projects and has huge exposure and
experience for carrying out the implementation of the Project.

Credit Review

This is a very important activity to monitor the progress of the Client project and to make
sure that the funds are being used in the same area as mentioned. The default time period is
half-by yearly basis. Though the proposal is reworked on yearly basis to mark the progress of
the project and make changes in the limits / interest rates and other terms and conditions.

Credit Rating

The bank while evaluating the credit proposal derives the credit rating which has to be over
and above “LC5”, based on which the interest rates to be charged are decided. In special
cases bank may consider projects with LC6 and LC7. The Borrower Risk Grade and
Borrower Price Grade both are checked and the recommendations are made.

Risk factors and Mitigation

Risk Type Mitigation

Time and Cost Overruns during construction The company has undertaken improvement
works and completed substantial portion before
time

Adequate escalation provisions are provided.

Statutory Approvals and Clearances The critical clearances are obligations of the
Government, which has a joint venture, thus no

111
 delays
Commercial Risk Geographical location adds to the positives, as
traffic has registered a growth of 61% for last
five years

The roads provide more efficient connectivity

to National Highways
Senior and Subordinated debts from Banks/FI The entire debts flow from Banks/FI will be
managed by the XYZ LTD. Financial Services.
Equity In case of unavailability of IPO, the entire
proceeds would be managed by the sponsors
Political Events As per PDA, the government takes care of the
any cost incurred due to the any political event

Credit Pricing
The bank charges interest rates which are dependent on the nature of the project, the risk
associated with the project etc. Thus referencing to the article attached in the appendix we
can be clear on the components which account for the same.

Also, in the form of Pre-payment charges and commitment charges, the bank charges for
either prepayment of the interest component or either not using the loan to the limit as
mentioned in the terms and conditions of the memorandum.

Also, the bank charges processing fees, as mentioned in the terms and conditions of the
memorandum.

Last but not the least, in case of any defaults or non-fulfillment of any condition can cause for
a charge in the form of liquidated damages.

Bank’s Policy

The Bank of India policy varies for every industry, thus for the roads and highways projects
under Public Private Partnership (PPP) are as follows:

 Financing to road projects may be considered on the basis of a viability study, taking
into account the traffic study and revenue generation capacity of the project.
 In sanctioning proposals, the risk assessment and mitigation should be addressed.
 Before any disbursement takes place, the bank makes sure that all the project
agreements and contracts have been undertaken by the promoter.

112
 The following arrangements are also considered i.e. Escrow Account, Comprehensive
Insurance cover, maintenance of DSRA etc after the Commencement Operation Date
(COD).
 Since Infrastructure projects are of generally longer durations hence the credit review
plays an important part to check whether the project is going as per the schedule, else
remedial action needs to be initiated.
 The total sanctioned limit for roads and highways project is fixed at 5 % of the Gross
Domestic Advances of the Bank.
 For any relaxation banks needs to get the approval from the Ministry of Commerce.
 Financial parameters to be followed:
o Maximum D/E Ratio is 4:1
o Minimum Average DSCR should be 1.25

Chapter 5

CONCLUSION &
RECCOMENDATIONS
113
 Observation & Findings

As per the observations made during the study of my project I found that the bank needs to
review its credit rating system and needs to be more stringent in norms. Thus bank needs to
make sure that it invests in sectors which promise better growth, which can be done by a
thorough study of the market forces. So banks need to maintain the opportunity risk balance,
to invest in corporate with higher operational efficiency.

Banks needs to focus on sectors such as Infrastructure, the bank guidelines for financing this
sector should be made liberal and thus bank should try to give various concession facilities.
Thus for risk rating bank takes external rating for the company carrying out the project and
not for the specific project. The concession should be given in the form of relaxation in
prepayment charges, maintenance of DSRA account, margins etc.

Conclusion

The association with Bank of India for project on “Analysis of Credit Appraisal” has been an
educational experience.

114
It has helped a lot to understand the practical aspects of Trade Finance and Credit Appraisal
and how the various methods/policy that we been studying theoretically are applied in
business.
With the globalization process, the role of Trade Finance and Credit has undergone a sea
change and it is a major profit center for better performing banks.
Credit operations have become more significant and complex today than what it was few
years back. The role played by the technology and the rapid changes in the financial sector
cannot be ascertained. The role of information technology is pivotal particularly because
unless informational expectations are clarified and met, Trade and Credit operations cannot
be made efficient in operations.
Credit provided by the banks is an important source of finance for the corporate. But the bank
has to check the acceptability of the corporate before they can sanction the loan to it. Along
with this, the assessment of the credit needs of the corporate also has to be done by the bank.
This entire process is called the credit appraisal process of the bank.
The bank then decides whether to sanction the loan to the corporate or not. If the loan is to be
sanctioned then what rate of interest is to be provided to the corporate is decided based on the
risk rating of the corporate and a host of other subjective factors.
This process of credit appraisal is to be carried out at the time of initial entry of a corporate to
the bank as also the consequent periodic reviews or renewals to make sure that the credit is
given to the business which is creditworthy and in limits as per the needs of the business.
Bank of India has steadily been growing over the last many years. The financial turmoil has
impacted the bank, the credit for which goes to the strict Credit Appraisal issuing procedure.
This helps the bank to keep its NPA value at a minimum. The NPA of the firm has been
declining over the years and this year it was just 1.47% of total advances. This is a very
healthy figure and shows how effective the bank is in its credit management.

115
To sum up, the paradigm shift in the risk exposure levels of the financial institutions, has
definitely led to Credit Appraisal assuming a center stage. Undoubtedly all financial
institutions need to perform Credit Appraisal. But to have a proper Credit Appraisal operation
in place, requires a thorough understanding of the underlying factors. Such an understanding
will enable the financial institution to identify and unbundle the risks and further aid in
adopting and developing appropriate risk management models to manage risks and thereby
making the process of Credit Appraisal a success.

Thus we can say that the bank, given its resources, can occupy a better place in the near
future, all it needs is a broader perspective and the right attitude to make maximum use of its
resources.

Recommendations

Bank of India has been in the banking sector for years, thus the products and services offered
in Trade finance and Credit Appraisal Process have developed to a great extent: it is almost
flawless.

But some recommendations have been provided which are as follows –

Credit Appraisal

 The new credit rating models that have recently come need to be developed further so
as to increase their accuracy. This will help the bank immensely in the future.
 Usually, the review of the account for “AAA”, “AA” and “A” rated companies is once
in a year. The review and consequently the credit appraisal of the account for the “A”
rated companies should be done at a period less than a year, maybe once every 9
months. This is because the “A” rated accounts are at a relatively higher risk than the
“AAA” or the “AA” rated account
 The manual process of Credit Appraisal should be automated to considerable effect.
 The Credit Appraisal process should be more organized, the repetitive process should
be made to minimize and thus helping to make the process faster.

116
  Bank of India should give more concession to infrastructure sector. Especially to
power, road and ports as it is need of the hour.
 The bank needs to work in depth market study for projects with lower credit ratings to
be able to identify them as valuable customers.

Key Concerns for the Bank of India

 Bank is increasing its international operations with some of its branches in high-risk
countries. Any adverse event in these countries could lead to negative impact on
bank's business and profitability.
 Due to rising inflation, RBI has been following stringent credit norms leading to rise
in cost of funds and slower credit growth for banks. This will put additional pressure
on profitability of bank.
 Banks are considered to be barometer of economy and have been major beneficiary of
current economic boom. Any significant downturn in economy could affect bank
adversely.
 Bank of India needs to enhance their IT implementation in comparison with the
private players.

Practical aspect of Learning from Bank of India

The experience at the Bank of India, Noida Branch in one of the largest Public Sector bank
was a fulfilling one. During my time here I got to understand the intricacies involved in
Corporate Banking.

At Bank of India, Noida Branch I got the in depth study of the Corporate Banking
operations at the bank. I had the chance to get exposure to the various trade finance
products and services offered. The new trends and opportunities lying ahead for the
bank were also studied.
Also, I got a practical understanding of the Credit Appraisal process followed at Bank
of India by analyzing the real-time proposals being worked at Bank of India. The
Credit Policy helped to understand the various regulations followed at Bank of India.
The Credit Rating system gives an insight to the various risk factors considered by
Bank of India and also the risk management strategies followed at Bank of India.
I also got an exposure to forex exchange transactions. I have learned how forward
contacts are booked, how payments are received and made,how the communication is
made with overseas banks.
I found that summer training project provides a lot of learning opportunities. I gained
a lot of knowledge about the practical aspect of fieldwork.
Observing and learning how to deal with clients and how to solve their queries was an
amaing experience.

117
 My exposure to the outer world through my training had given me a chance to relate
my theoretical knowledge with its practical applicability.
I have become more confident and I have also improved on my sense of appreciation.

In the end, the environment at the Bank was very helpful in intellectual development.
