EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Bank extends Loan facilities by way of fund-based facilities and non-fund based
facilities. The fund-based facilities are usually allowed by way of term loans, cash
credit, bills discounted/purchased, demand loans, overdrafts, etc. Further, the
bank also provides non fund-based facilities by way of issuance of inland and
foreign letters of credit, issuance of guarantees, deferred payment guarantees,
bills acceptance facility etc.
Efficient management of Loans and Advances portfolio has assumed
greater significance as it is the largest asset of the Bank having direct impact on
its profitability. In the wake of the continued tightening of norms of income
recognition, asset classification and provisioning, increased competition and
emergence of new types of risks in the financial sector, it has become imperative
that the credit functions are strengthened. RBI has also been emphasizing banks
to evolve suitable guidelines for effective management and control of credit risks.
Credit risk rating is an important function of the bank. It is the process of
evaluating the credit worthiness of a loan applicant. Every bank or lending
institution has its own panel of officials for this purpose.
I have undertaken a study at Punjab National Bank which is an
international bank with its global presence in twenty five countries. The study is
on ‘Loans and Advances of Small and Medium Enterprises - Scope and
Analysis’. The process of Credit Rating & disbursement of loans has been
explained in detail in the project.

INTRODUCTION

A loan is a type of debt. Like all debt instruments, a loan entails the redistribution
of financial assets over time, between the lender and the borrower. The borrower
initially receives an amount of money from the lender, which they are obligated to
pay back, but not always in regular installments, to the lender. The loan is
generally provided at a cost, referred to as interest on the debt. A borrower may
be subject to certain restrictions known as loan covenants under the terms of the
loan.
Acting as a provider of loans is one of the principal tasks for financial
institutions. Bank loans and credit are one way to increase the money supply.
Now a days loans are easily available and the rate of interests at which
they are available are very reasonable. Government too is encouraging people to
take loans for certain purposes. For example, government is encouraging people
to take housing loans by giving tax concessions.
Running a business is never an easy task. One is bound to face financial
hiccups during the process. Whether someone is a new generation entrepreneur
venturing into a new business or an established businessman planning for a
business expansion, whether its money required for an immediate official
expansion or it could be the time of recession, when payments don't come on
time but the expenditures can't wait, the business loans ease our way through a
scary road of financial crisis and open the world of new business heights for you.
Financial institutions like banks offer the business loan to bail us out.
I have undertaken a study at Punjab National Bank on the topic
‘Financing the SME’s - Scope and Analysis’ which deals with studying the
market trends and learning the importance of financing the Sme Sector.

1.1 Project Description


This project deals with reviewing the credit worthiness of the borrower before
sanctioning of a loan. It deals with analysis of the data provided by the company

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 7


and following all the formalities as under the norms of the bank and finally
making a loan appraisal.

1.2 Relevance of the Project


The project deals with first getting the loan proposals from the clients and making
the appraisal note. It gives a practical insight of the procedures followed by the
bank in ascertaining the credit worthiness of the borrower. All the various
parameters such as financial, management and industrial are studied. The
borrowers are granted fund based (working capital) and non-fund based ((Bank
guarantee and letter of credit) facilities. The project requires restructuring of
Balance sheet and Profit and Loss Account into the CMA format provided by the
Bank. Then filling the CRISIL input sheet for doing the Credit Rating for internal
purposes basically for rating and ascertaining the interest rate for the fund based
and non-fund based limits..

1.3 Objectives of the Study

 To study the current market scenario/trends in the SME sector.


 To learn the importance and details of financing the SME sector.
 To study the chain of events of processing a loan proposal– from
receiving the application from the borrower, doing credit rating of the
borrower and the company, analyzing the financial statements,
sanctioning to disbursement and the post sanction reviews.
 To learn the procedure of doing the rating

1.4 Limitations of the Study

 Study is limited only to the SME sectors


 Due to time limitations a detailed analysis could not be done.

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 8


 The major limitation of this study shall be data availability as the data is
proprietary and not readily shared for dissemination.

 Also the geographical scope of the project was limited to PNB Circle
Office and the loans studied were of solely of businesses established
majorly in Mumbai

 The credit appraisal decision are more of intuition and experience and
since the time period was limited, hence best efforts were made to grasp
the process as much as possible

 Due to ever changing environment, many risks are unexpected and the
remedial measures available are based on general experience from the
past. Therefore risks can only be minimized cannot be erased completely.

2.2 Brief History

Punjab National Bank was registered on 19 May 1894 under the Indian
Companies Act with its office in Anarkali Bazaar Lahore. The founding board was
drawn from different parts of India professing different faiths and a varied back-
ground with, however, the common objective of providing country with a truly
national bank which would further the economic interest of the country. PNB's
founders included several leaders of the Swadeshi movement such as Dyal
Singh Majithia and Lala HarKishen Lal, Lala Lalchand, Shri Kali Prosanna Roy,
Shri E.C. Jessawala, Shri Prabhu Dayal, Bakshi Jaishi Ram, and Lala Dholan
Dass. Lala Lajpat Rai was actively associated with the management of the Bank
in its early years. The board first met on 23 May 1894.

PNB has the distinction of being the first Indian bank to have been started solely
with Indian capital that has survived to the present. (The first entirely Indian
bank, the Oudh Commercial Bank, was established in 1881 in Faizabad, but
failed in 1958.)

PNB has had the privilege of maintaining accounts of national leaders such as
Mahatma Gandhi, Shri Jawahar Lal Nehru, Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri, Shrimati
Indira Gandhi, as well as the account of the famous Jalianwala Bagh Committee.

3. LITERATURE / CONCEPTUAL SUPPORT

The purpose of the literature review is to review what has previously been done
on the subject and analyze it in the present context so that an effective
understanding can be established.

3.1 Banking Sector

The Banking Industry was once a simple and reliable business that took deposits
from investors at a lower interest rate and loaned it out to borrowers at a higher
rate. However deregulation and technology led to a revolution in the Banking
Industry that saw it transformed. Banks have become global industrial
powerhouses that have created ever more complex products.

A Banking sector performs three essential functions in an economy: the


operation of the payment system, the mobilization of savings and the allocation
of savings to the investment projects. By allocating capital to the highest value
use while limiting the risks and the costs involved the banking sector can exert a
positive influence on the overall economy and thus is of broad macroeconomic
consequence (Roland, 2006; Jaffe and Levonian, 2001, Rajan and Zingales,
1998).
The Banking Industry at its core provides access to credit. In the lenders case,
this includes access to their own savings and investments, and interest
payments on those amounts. In the case of borrowers, it includes access to
loans for the creditworthy, at a competitive interest rate. Banking services include
transactional services, such as verification of account details, account balance
details and the transfer of funds, as well as advisory services, that help
individuals and institutions to properly plan and manage their finances. Online
banking channels have become key in the last 10 years.

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 18


The collapse of the Banking Industry in the Financial Crisis, however,
means that some of the more extreme risk-taking and complex securitization
activities that banks increasingly engaged in since 2000 will be limited and
carefully watched, to ensure that there is not another banking system meltdown
in the future.

3.2 Indian Banking Industry

The growth in the Indian Banking Industry has been more qualitative than
quantitative and it is expected to remain the same in the coming years. 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 total assets
of all scheduled commercial banks by end-March 2010 is estimated at Rs
40,90,000 crores. That will comprise about 65 per cent of GDP at current market
prices as compared to 67 per cent in 2002-03. Bank assets are expected to grow
at an annual composite rate of 13.4 per cent during the rest of the decade as
against the growth rate of 16.7 per cent that existed between 1994-95 and 2002-
03. It is expected that there will be large additions to the capital base and
reserves on the liability side.

The Indian Banking Industry can be categorized into non-scheduled banks


and scheduled banks. Scheduled banks constitute of commercial banks and co-
operative banks. There are about 67,000 branches of Scheduled banks spread
across India. As far as the present scenario is concerned the Banking Industry in
India is going through a transitional phase.

The Public Sector Banks (PSBs), which are the base of the Banking
sector in India account for more than 78 per cent of the total banking industry
assets. Unfortunately they are burdened with excessive Non Performing assets
(NPAs), massive manpower and lack of modern technology. On the other hand

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 19


the Private Sector Banks are making tremendous progress. They are leaders in
Internet banking, mobile banking, phone banking, ATMs. As far as foreign banks
are concerned they are likely to succeed in the Indian Banking Industry.

In the Indian Banking Industry some of the Private Sector Banks operating
are IDBI Bank, ING Vyasa Bank, SBI Commercial and International Bank Ltd,
Bank of Rajasthan Ltd. and banks from the Public Sector include Punjab National
bank, Vijaya Bank, UCO Bank, Oriental Bank, Allahabad Bank among others.
ANZ Grindlays Bank, ABN-AMRO Bank, American Express Bank Ltd, Citibank
are some of the foreign banks operating in the Indian Banking Industry.

3.3 Small And Medium Enterprises (SMEs) In India

The small and medium enterprises segment has been a topic of intense
deliberation among banks, financial institutions, industry and academicians. In
India, ‘small and medium enterprises’ (SME) is a generic term used to describe
small scale industrial (SSI) units and medium-scale industrial units. As per the
Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act of 2006, any industrial
unit with a total investment in its fixed assets or leased assets or hire-purchase
asset upto Rs10 million is considered as a SSI unit and investment up to Rs. 100
million is considered as a medium unit. In addition, an SSI unit should neither be
a subsidiary of any other industrial unit nor can it be owned or controlled by any
other industrial unit.

The SME sector produces a wide range of industrial products such as food
products, beverage, tobacco and tobacco products, cotton textiles, wool, silk,
synthetic products, jute, hemp & jute products, wood & wood products, furniture
and fixtures, paper & paper products, printing publishing and allied industries,
machinery, machines, apparatus, appliances and electrical machinery. SME
sector also has a large number of service industries.

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 20


 In India, SME is the biggest provider of employment next only to
Agriculture. The SMEs constitute 95% of total industrial units and
constitute 40% of total industrial output.
 Formerly, both Government and RBI credit policy placed emphasis on
manufacturing units from the Small Scale Sector. However, in order to
make the size of the unit and the technology employed by firms to be
globally competitive, the definition of “Small Scale Sector” was revisited.
Keeping in view the same and the global practices, it was decided to
broaden the concept of SSI Sector by inclusion of services within its ambit
as also including the “Medium Enterprises” in a composite sector of “Small
& Medium Enterprises”.
 Subsequently, MSMED Act was operationalized with effect from 2nd
October 2006, which defines an “enterprise” instead of an “industry” to
give recognition to service sector and also defines a “medium enterprise”
to facilitate technology upgradation and graduation.
 Banks were advised to formulate comprehensive and more liberal policies
than the existing policies in respect of loans to SME Sector.

3.4 Role of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs)

SMEs have been playing a pivotal role in country’s overall economic growth, and
have achieved steady progress over the last couple of years. From the
perspective of industrial development in India, and hence the growth of the
overall economy, SMEs have to play a prominent role, given that their labour
intensiveness generates employment. The SME segment also plays a major role
in developing countries such as India in an effort to alleviate poverty and propel
sustainable growth. They also lead to an equitable distribution of income due to
the nature of business. Moreover, SMEs in countries such as India help in
efficient allocation of resources by implementing labour intensive production

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 21


processes, given the abundant supply of labour in these countries, wherein
capital is scarce.

The enactment of the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development


(MSMED) Act, 2006 was a landmark initiative taken by the Government of India
to enable the SMEs’ competitive strength, address the issues and challenges
and reap the benefits of the global market. SME policy initiatives at the national
and state level are aimed at strengthening the role of SMEs at the base as well
as at the higher level.

With globalisation, all forms of production of goods and services are getting
increasingly fragmented across countries and enterprises. With large players
adopting different models of business that include involvement of the traditional
partners, suppliers or distributors at a different level, SMEs now are experiencing
a new model of functioning in the value chain. The past few years has seen the
role of the SME segment evolve from a traditional manufacturer in the domestic
market to that of an international partner. The restructuring of production at the
international level through increased outsourcing is having significant effects on
small and medium entrepreneurs in a positive as well as negative manner.
Demand in terms of new niche products and services are providing more
opportunities for SMEs that are in a better position to take advantage of their
flexible nature of operations. However, at the same time they have realized their
drawback in terms of inadequate availability of managerial and financial
resources, lack of working capital, personnel training and inability to innovate on
a faster pace.

The combined effect of market liberalisation and deregulation has forced


the SME segment to change their business strategies for survival and growth.
Some of the changes that SMEs are focusing on include acquiring quality
certifications, increasing use of ICT, creating e-business models and
diversification to meet the increasing competition. Globalisation, economic
liberalisation and the WTO regime would undoubtedly open up a unique

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 22


opportunity for the largest business community, i.e. SMEs through effective
involvement in international trade by streamlining certain factors, such as, access
to markets, access to technology, access to skills, finance, development of
necessary infrastructure, SME-tax friendly environment, exchanges of best
practices to name a few.

The SME sector has also registered a consistently higher growth rate than
the overall manufacturing sector. In fact, it plays a dual role since the output
produced by SMEs is not only about final consumption but also a source of
capital goods in the form of inputs to heavy industries.

3.5 Financing the SMEs


In Feb 2008, the Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME),
continued with its dereservation policy by removing 79 items from the list of 114
items reserved specifically for SSI (small scale industries) manufacturing. Only
35 items remain in the reserved category from the total 836 selected in 1994
denoting the declining monopoly of the SSI segment on the reserved products.
However, the government has set up various schemes in place such as the
Credit Linked Capital Subsidy Scheme, MSME Cluster Development Scheme
and ISO 9000 Reimbursement Scheme to help SMEs for procuring timely funds.
Also the government has put in place the Credit Guarantee Scheme to
encourage banks to lend up to Rs 0.50 million without collateral. There has also
been a recent budget announcement of setting up of a Risk Capital Fund.

Though SMEs are being touted as the priority sector within the economy,
they continue to face problems pertaining to finance. When it comes to banks,
they have a very traditional way of lending to this segment against collateral and
SMEs end up being under financed. Evidently, the biggest challenge before the
SMEs today is to have access to non debt based and non-traditional financial
products such as external commercial borrowings, private equity, factoring etc.

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 23


Lately this segment has been witnessing winds of change in the new
sources of capital- in the form of private equity (PE) and foreign direct
investments (FDI). In Jan 2008, The Soros Economic Development Fund
(SEDF), Omidyar Network and Google.org announced a Small to Medium
Enterprise Investment Company with an initial corpus of $17 million for providing
capital to SMEs in underserved markets. Mauritius-based Frontline Strategy
launched a $200 million India Industrial Growth Fund (IIGF) for investment in
SMEs targeting companies, primarily in the industrial space with revenues
between Rs 200 – 1,000 million. In 2007, Mauritius-based Horizon advisors
launched Ambit Pragma Fund I, an India dedicated PE fund, with a corpus of
$100 million for providing equity capital and professional management advice to
SMEs.

Investments in the SME sector are not only by PE funds but this sector is
also attracting FDI. In this respect the government has removed the 24 per cent
cap on FDI in the SME sector. Foreign entities are also keen on promoting trade
and cooperation between SMEs of different countries. Genesis Initiative, an UK-
based organization consisting of entrepreneurs, policy makers and SMEs, is
trying to forge mutual cooperation between SMEs in India and UK for in terms of
JVs and partnerships in sectors such as textiles, IT, infrastructure etc.

3.6 Book of Instructions on Loans – (Punjab National Bank)


A book of instructions was provided to us to get a detailed understanding of the
terms used in the entire procedure. It was titled ‘Book Of Instructions on Loans’
which was meant for Internal Circulation among the Punjab National Bank staff.

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 24


3.7 Important Concepts

 BANK GUARANTEES: Banks come across a 'Guarantee' in two


capacities. One as a beneficiary when somebody guarantees the payment
of debt of bank's borrower in case of default. The other as a guarantor,
when the bank itself promises to pay the dues or discharge the liabilities of
its customers in favour of a third party. While in the former case, the Bank
is the creditor, in the latter case, Bank's liability is co-extensive with that of
the debtor.

 LETTERS OF CREDIT: Services of third party as an intermediary is


usually a bank who issues a letter of assurance to a seller at the request
of a buyer for payment of cost of goods/ services sold on certain terms
and conditions. Such an assurance letter is named as a "Letter of Credit".

 QUASI CAPITAL: Quasi capital will include (i) amount of Central/State


subsidy(ii) Long term unsecured interest free loans from government or
government agencies such as sales tax loan etc. (iii) long term unsecured
interest free loans from promoters provided such loans are subordinated
to the loans from banks/financial institutions (iv) Non-refundable deposits.
(v) Risk capital assistance provided by Risk Capital & Technology Finance
Corporation Ltd.

4. PROCESS / METHODOLOGY

Now after going through the conceptual support required for understanding the
project, a methodology has to be prepared for how to complete the project
successfully.

4.1 Project Methodology


The methodology/process followed is as follows :
a. The borrower submits the project report and all the relevant documents to
the bank.
b. The project report was given to me for an in depth analysis.
c. A pre-sanction appraisal and evaluation was then carried out by studying
the company’s financial statement.
d. Restructuring of the company’s Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss
Account in to the Credit Monitoring Arrangement (CMA) format.
e. The borrower company was rated using the CRISIL Credit Rating Model.
f. On being assured of the credit worthiness of the borrower, the loan is
disbursed.

 MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE BANK FINANCE: MPBF is calculated when


the borrower wants loan for working capital requirement. The maximum
permissible bank finance will, therefore, be working capital gap less the
amount to be so contributed by the borrower.

4.2 Locale of the Project

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 26


Punjab National Bank is the second largest state-owned commercial bank
in India with about 5000 branches across 764 cities including 5 overseas
branches. The bank has its head office in New Delhi. The project is conducted
in the Punjab National Bank, Financing SME, Maker Tower, cuff parade,
Mumbai.

4.3 Sample Size


The sample chosen for appraisal was one, consisting of proposals of SME
accounts and takeover accounts.

4.4 Source of Data

The project is made through secondary data. Secondary data in terms of


Financial Statements i.e. Balance Sheet, Profit and loss and Cash Flow
Statement were studied. The data is then formatted as per the CMA requirement
of the bank. The given data was studied and the relevant ratios were computed
to ascertain the credit worthiness of the borrower. The various parameters such
as financial and industry were studied and hence a loan appraisal was created.

6. CREDIT RISK RATING

6.1 Introduction

 Introduced in July 2001

 Credit Risk Rating software was put into internal server of the bank with
the name ‘‘PNB-TRAC’’ (Techniques for Risk Assessment of Credit) on
15.03.2006

 The objective of the credit risk management is to bring about a balanced


and healthy credit portfolio at low to moderate levels of risks.

 Credit Risk
Credit Risk is the risk of default by borrower due to inability and/or
unwillingness to repay his debts in accordance with the agreed terms and
conditions.

 Credit Risk Rating


Credit Risk Rating is a rating assigned to borrowers, based on an analysis
of their ability and willingness to repay the debt taken from the bank. This
rating is assigned on a scale, which generally has 6 to 8 levels.
Companies falling in the same credit risk category have similar probability
of default. Better the rating, lower is the probability of default. The
probability of default increases in an exponential manner as the credit risk
rating deteriorates.
Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 32
 The bank has developed the following Credit Risk Rating Models

Sources of risks considered in the rating models


The credit risk rating model considers the following broad areas in evaluating the
default risk of a borrower
1. Financials

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 33


2. Business/Industry Performance
3. Industry Outlook
4. Quality of Management
5. Conduct of Account

The rating tool is focused on the above-mentioned areas for assessing the credit
risk rating of a company. The areas are bifurcated into sub-areas and each sub-
area is further split into a number of parameters.

Different weights (in %) assigned for the above mentioned areas under various
models as under –

Models
Parameters Large Mid Small loan SL II New Project
Financial 40% 40% 40% 36% 25%
Business and 25% 25% 20% 16% 30%
Industry
Management 25% 20% 20% 28% 45%
Conduct of A/C 10% 15% 20% 20% ---

Weights in bold denote highest weights assigned in particular model.

6.2 Methodology of the credit risk rating tool

1. The rating is done based on parameters such as- financials, business/


industry, management, conduct of account, etc. The scores are assigned to
each of the parameters in the different sections on a scale of 0 to 4 up to 2
decimal points with 0 being very poor and 4 being excellent. The scoring of
some of these parameters is subjective while for some others it is done on
the basis of pre-defined objective criteria. Guidelines for assigning scores to
the different parameters have been discussed in concerned rating manuals.

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 34


2. The scores given to the individual parameters multiply by allocated weights
are aggregated and a composite score for the company is arrived at in
percentage terms. Higher the score obtained by a company, better is its credit
rating. Weights have been assigned to different parameters based on their
importance.
Weights assigned to different parameters have been loaded in the ‘‘PNB TRAC’’
software. After allocating scores to all the parameters, the aggregate score is
calculated and displayed by the software.

3. Wherever a particular parameter is not applicable, no score should be given.


The parameter should be made ‘NA’ so that the weight assigned to that
parameter gets distributed among the other parameters in that section
automatically.

4. The overall percentage score obtained from step 2 on a scale of 0 to 100 is


then translated into a rating on a scale from AAA to D according to a pre-defined
range as under
Rating Risk profile Score (%) obtained Grade within

PNB - D Caution Risk 30.00 and below PNB - D

Ratings with AAA, AA, A, BB AND B grades signify ‘Investment Grade’ and
C and D rating grades are called ‘‘High Risk Grade’’.

5. Impact of Single Most Crucial Factor on Rating

The vetting authority on the basis of the crucial factors mentioned below may
downgrade the rating of an account.
‘‘Effects of any major developments which are not yet cleared, major damage to
plant/stocks, court judgement on environmental threats, involvement of
promoters/company in excise/FERA/tax-evasion, recovery suit/winding-up
petition filed by Creditors/FIs/Banks, any civil/criminal proceedings against the
promoters/company, change of management etc.’’
OR

Any other crucial factor, which has come to the notice of the bank and has a
substantial effect on the operational efficiency/viability of the unit such as
i. Affecting willingness/capability of the promoters to repay the debt as per
agreed terms and conditions
ii. Substantial impairment in the value of assets including Block
Assets/Loans and Advances/ Investments. Inventory/Debtors
iii. Obsolescence of the product or any major change in the Govt. Policies
having the substantial impact on the performance of the company, etc

The factors stated above are only indicative and the account may be
downgraded on any other crucial factor, which affects the operating
efficiency/viability of the unit.

6.3 GENERAL GUIDELINES

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 36


1. The credit risk rating model is applicable to the small borrowal accounts
under STANDARD category availing aggregate limits (Fund based, TL
and Non-Fund based) above Rs 2 Lacs and upto Rs 5 crores and having
turnover upto Rs 25 crores p.a

2. All borrowers under small loans category i.e. Manufacturing concerns,


Traders, Contractors, Service Sector, etc including borrowers who are
already in operation and coming to our fold first time are covered.
However following categories of borrowers shall be excluded
- Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFC)
- New Companies

3. The rating should be done on the basis of latest Audited Financial


Statements (not more than 1 year old) only and should be for a complete
year of operations. On stabilization of the rating model at branch level, it is
proposed to undertake the risk rating exercise at half yearly intervals.

4. It is to be ensured that each parameter of the Credit Risk Rating format is


evaluated and the parameter should be left un-assessed.

5. All eligible accounts under the small loan segment in the branch should be
rated.

6. In case a borrower availing term loan/approaching for fresh term loan the
parameters for term loan must be invariably assessed and the total score
obtained by the party out of 120 must be converted to score out of 100.

6.4 THE CREDIT RISK RATING TOOL – AN OVERVIEW

Introduction

The credit risk rating tool has been developed with a view to provide a standard
system for assigning a credit risk rating to the borrowers of the bank according to
their risk profile.

Credit Risk Rating Structure

The credit risk rating model has been developed to capture credit risk factors
under areas viz.

1. Financials
2. Business/Industry
3. Management
4. Conduct of Account

Each parameter is further discussed:

INTRODUCTION

Effectiveness of Credit Management in the bank is highlighted by the quality of


its loan portfolio. Every Bank is striving hard to ensure that its credit portfolio is
healthy and that Non Performing Assets are kept at lowest possible level, as both

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 38


of these factors have direct impact on its profitability. In the present scenario
efficient project appraisal has assumed a great importance as it can check and
prevent induction of weak accounts to our loan portfolio. All possible steps need
to be taken to strengthen pre sanction appraisal as always “Prevention is better
than Cure”. With the opening up of the economy rapid changes are taking place
in the technology and financial sector exposing banks to greater risks, which can
be broadly classified as under:

Government regulations and policies, availability of infrastructure


Industry Risks facilities, Industry Rating, Industry Scenario & Outlook, Technology
Up gradation, availability of inputs, product obsolescence, etc.

Operating efficiency, competition faced from the units engaged in


similar products, demand and supply position, cost of labor, cost of
Business Risks
raw material and other inputs, pricing of product, surplus available,
marketing, etc.

Background, integrity and market standing/ reputation of promoters,


organizational set up and management hierarchy,
Management expertise/competence of persons holding key position in the
Risks organization, delegation and decentralization of authority,
achievement of targets, track record in execution of project, debt
repayment, industry relations etc.

Financial strength/standing of the promoters, reliability and


reasonableness of projections, past financial performance, reliability
Financial Risks
of operational data and financial ratios, adequacy of provisioning for
bad debts, qualifying remarks of auditors/inspectors etc.

In light of the foregoing risks, the banks appraisal methodology should keep pace
with ever changing economic environment. The appraisal system aims to
determine the credit needs/requirements of the borrower taking into account the
financial resources of the client. The end objective of the appraisal system is to
ensure that there is no under - financing or over - financing. Following are the
aspects, which need to be scrutinized and analyzed while appraising:

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 39


 MARKET ANALYSIS

(Demand & Potential)

The market demand and potential is to be examined for each product item and
its variants/substitutes by taking into account the selling price of the products to
be marketed vis-a-vis prices of the competing products/substitutes, discount
structure, arrangement made for after sale service, competitors' status and their
level of operation with regard to production and products and distribution
channels being used etc. Critical analysis is required regarding size of the market
for the product(s) both local and export, based on the present and expected
future demand in relation to supply position of similar products and availability of
the other substitutes as also consumer preferences, practices, attitudes,
requirements etc. Further, the buy-back arrangements under the foreign
collaboration, if any, and influence of Government policies also needs to be
considered for projecting the demand. Competition from imported goods,
Government Import Policy and Import duty structure also need to be evaluated.

 TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

In a dynamic market, the product, its variants and the product-mix proposed to
be manufactured in terms of its quality, quantity, value, application and current
taste/trend requires thorough investigation.

Location and Site

Based on the assessment of factors of production, markets, Govt. policies and


other factors, Location (which means the broad area) and Site (which signifies
Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 40
specific plot of land) selected for the Unit with its advantages and disadvantages,
if any, should be such that overall cost is minimized. It is to be seen that site
selected has adequate availability of infrastructure facilities viz. Power, Water,
Transport, Communication, state of information technology etc. and is in
agreement with the Govt. policies. The adequacy of size of land and building for
carrying out its present/proposed activity with enough scope for accommodating
future expansion needs to be judged.

Raw Material

The cost of essential/major raw materials and consumables required their past
and future price trends, quality/properties, their availability on a regular basis,
transportation charges, Govt. policies regarding regulation of supplies and prices
require to be examined in detail. Further, cost of indigenous and imported raw
material, firm arrangements for procurement of the same etc. need to be
assessed.

Plant & Machinery, Plant Capacity and Manufacturing Process

The selection of Plant and Machinery proposed to be acquired whether


indigenous or imported has to be in agreement with required plant capacity,
principal inputs, investment outlay and production cost as also with the
machinery and equipment already installed in an existing unit, while for the new
unit it is to be examined whether these are of proven technology as to its
performance. The technology used should be latest and cost effective enabling
the unit to compete in the market. Purchase of reconditioned/old machinery is to
be dealt in terms of laid down guidelines. Compatibility of plant and machinery,
particularly, in respect of imported technology with quality of raw material is to be
kept in view. Also plant and machinery and other equipments needed for various
utility services, their supply position, specification, price and performance as also
suppliers' credentials, and in case of collaboration, collaborators' present and
future support requires critical analysis. Plant capacity and the concept of

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 41


economic size has a major bearing on the present and future plans of the
entrepreneur(s) and should be related to the availability of raw material, product
demand, product price and technology.

The selected process of manufacturing indicating the adequacy, availability and


suitability of technology to be used along with plant capacity, manufacturing
process needs to studied in detail with capacities at various stages of production
being such that it facilitates optimum utilization and ensures future expansion/
debottlenecking, as and when required. It is also to be ensured that
arrangements are made for inspection at intermediate/final stages of production
for ensuring quality of goods on successful commencement of production and
completion, wherever required.

 FINANCIAL ANALYSIS

The aspects which need to be analyzed under this head should include cost of
project, means of financing, cost of production, break-even analysis, financial
statements as also profitability/funds flow projections, financial ratios, sensitivity
analysis which are discussed as under:

Cost of Project & Means of Financing

a. The major cost components of any project are land and building including
transfer, registration and development charges as also plant and machinery,
equipment for auxiliary services, including transportation, insurance, duty,
clearing, loading and unloading charges etc. It also involves consultancy
and know-how expenses which are payable to foreign collaborators or
consultants who are imparting the technical know-how. Recurring annual
royalty payment is not reflected under this head but is accounted for under
the profitability statements. Further, preliminary expenses, such as, cost of
incorporation of the Company, its registration, preparation of feasibility

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 42


report, market surveys, pre-operative expenses like salary, travelling, start up
expenses, mortgage expenses incurred before commencement of
commercial production also form part of cost of project. Also included in it
are capital issue expenses which can be in the form of brokerage,
commission, advertisement, printing, stationery etc. Finally, provisions for
contingencies to meet any unforeseen expenses, such as, price escalation or
any other expense which have been inadvertently omitted like margin for
working capital requirements required to complete the production cycle,
interest during construction period, etc. are also part of capital cost of project.
It is to be ensured while appraising the project that cost and various
estimates given are realistic and there is no under/over estimation. Further,
these cost components should be supported by proper quotations,
specifications and justifications of land, machinery and know-how expenses
etc.

ii. Besides Bank’s loan, the project cost is normally financed by bringing capital
by the promoters and shareholders in the form of equity, debentures,
unsecured long term loans and deposits raised from friends and relatives
which are not repayable till repayment of Bank's loan. Resources are raised
for financing project by raising term loans from Institutions/Banks which are
repayable over a period of time, deferred term credits secured from suppliers
of machinery which are repayable in installments over a period of time. The
above is an illustrative list, as the promoters have now started raising funds
through Euro-issues, Foreign Currency loans, premium on capital issues,
etc. which are sometimes comparatively cheap means of finance. Subsidies
and development loans provided by the Central/State Government in notified
backward districts to attract entrepreneurs are also means of financing a
project. It is to be ascertained that requirement of finance has been properly
tied-up for unhindered implementation of a project. The financing structure
accepted must be in consonance with generally accepted levels along with

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 43


adequate Promoters' stake. The resourcefulness, willingness and capacity
of promoter to contribute the same have also to be investigated.

In case of project finance, the promoter/borrower may bring in upfront his


contribution (other than funds to be provided through internal generation) and
the branches should commence its disbursement after the stipulated funds
are brought in by the promoter/borrower. A condition to this effect should be
stipulated by the sanctioning authority in case of project finance, on case to
case basis depending upon the resourcefulness and capacity of the promoter
to contribute the same. It should be ensured that at any point of time, the
promoter’s contribution should not be less than the proportionate share.

Profitability Statement

The profitability statement which is also known as `Income and Expenditure


Statement' is prepared after considering the net sales figure and details of direct
costs/expenses relating to raw material, wages, power, fuel, consumable
stores/spares and other manufacturing expenses to arrive at a figure of gross
profit. Thereafter, all other expenses like salaries, office expenses, packing,
selling/distribution, interest, depreciation and any other overhead expenses and
taxes are taken into account to arrive at the figure of net profit. The projections
of profit/loss are prepared for a period covering the repayment of term loans.
The economic appraisal includes scrutinizing all the items of cost, and examining
the assumptions, if any, to ensure that these are realistic and achievable. There
should not be any optimism or pessimism in working out profitability projections
since even a little change in the product-mix from non-remunerative to
remunerative or vice-versa can distort the picture. While preparing profitability
projections, the past trends of performance in an industry and other
environmental factors influencing the cost and revenue items should also be
considered objectively.

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 44


Generally speaking, a unit may be considered as financially viable, progressive
and efficient if it is able to earn enough profits not only to service its debts timely
but also for future development/growth.

Break-Even Analysis

Analysis of break-even point of a business enterprise would help in knowing the


level of output and sales at which the business enterprise just breaks even i.e.
there is neither profit nor loss. A business earns profit if it operates at a level
higher than the break-even level or break-even point. If, on the other hand,
production is below this level, the business would incur loss. The break-even
point in an algebraic equation can be put as under:

Break-even point Total Fixed Cost / (Sales price per unit - Variable Cost per
(Volume or Units)
unit)
Break-even point
(Total Fixed Cost x Sales) / (Sales - Variable Costs)
(Sales in rupees)

The fixed costs include all those costs which tend to remain the same up to a
certain level of production while variable costs are those costs which tend to
change in proportion with the volume of production. As regards unit sales price,
it is generally the same for all levels of output.

The break-even analysis can help in making vital decisions relating to fixation of
selling price make or buy decision, maximizing production of the item giving
higher contribution etc. Further, the break-even analysis can help in
understanding the impact of important cost factors, such as, power, raw material,
labor, etc. and optimizing product-mix to improve project profitability.

Fund-Flow Statement

A fund-flow statement is often described as a ‘Statement of Movement of Funds’


or ‘where got: where gone statement’. It is derived by comparing the successive

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 45


balance sheets on two specified dates and finding out the net changes in the
various items appearing in the balance sheets.

A critical analysis of the statement shows the various changes in sources and
applications (uses) of funds to ultimately give the position of net funds available
with the business for repayment of the loans. A projected Fund Flow Statement
helps in answering the under mentioned points.

• How much funds will be generated by internal operations/external


sources?
• How the funds during the period are proposed to be deployed?
• Is the business likely to face liquidity problems?

Balance Sheet Projections

The financial appraisal also includes study of projected balance sheet which
gives the position of assets and liabilities of a unit at a particular future date. In
other words, the statement helps to analyze as to what an enterprise owns and
what it owes at a particular point of time.

An appraisal of the projected balance sheet data of the unit would be concerned
with whether the projections are realistic looking to various aspects relating to the
same industry.

6.5 Financial Ratios

While analyzing the financial aspects of project, it would be advisable to analyze


the important financial ratios over a period of time as it may tell us a lot about a
unit's liquidity position, managements' stake in the business, capacity to service
the debts etc. The financial ratios which are considered important are discussed
as under:

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 46


Ratio Formula Remarks

MANAGEMENT & ORGANIZATION ANALYSIS

Appraisal of project would not be complete till it throws enough light on the
person(s) behind the project i.e. management and organization of the unit. It is
seen that some projects may fail not because these are not viable but because of
the ineffectiveness of the management and the organization in controlling various
functions like production, marketing, finance, personnel, etc. The appraisal
report should highlight the strengths and weaknesses of the management by
commenting on the background, qualifications, experience, and capability of the
promoter, key management personnel, and effectiveness of the internal control
systems, relation with labor, working conditions, wage structure, and the other
assigned essential functions. In case the promoter(s) have interest, in other
concerns as Proprietor or Partner or Director, the appraisal report should also
comment on their performance in such concerns.

A business is more vulnerable if decision making in all the functional areas rests
with a particular person, in other words, `one man show'. Further, the
management and the organization should be conducive to the size and type of
business. In case it is not so, it should be ensured that professional managers
are inducted to strengthen the organization.

 APPRAISAL OF PROJECT - A CHECK LIST

An indicative list of issues which need to be looked into while appraising a project
is given below:

1. Reasonable demand projections keeping in view the


size of the market, consumption level, supply position,
export potential, import substitute, etc.
2. Competitors' status and their level of operation with
regard to production and sales.
3. Technology advancement/Foreign Collaborator's
Status/Buy-back arrangements etc.
4. Marketing policies in practice, for promotion of

To judge whether the project is viable, i.e. it can generate adequate surplus for
servicing its debts within a reasonable period of time and still left with some
funds for future development. This involves taking an over-all view to analyse the
strengths and weaknesses of the project. It should also be analysed to see
whether the management and organisation can prove effective for successful
implementation of the project

In order to adopt internal rating based approaches (IRB) for credit risk, Basel II
has placed certain minimum requirements which inter-alia require, validation of

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 53


rating system, process and estimation of all relevant risk components. Banks
must regularly compare realized default rates with estimated probability of
default (PD) of each grade and able to demonstrate to its supervisor (RBI), that
the internal validation process enable it to assess the performance of internal
rating and risk estimation system consistently and meaningfully. In view of above
fact, not only rating but consistent practices in evaluation of credit risk rating as
well as evolving and updating robust data on various risk components is must for
adopting IRB approaches.

CONTROLS

The Credit Risk Management process in the bank encompasses the following
management Control techniques which help in mitigating the adverse impacts of
credit risk in its credit portfolio.

6.7 IMPORTANT CONCEPTS

 Internal Rate of Return

The discount rate often used in capital budgeting that makes the net present
value of all cash flows from a particular project equal to zero. Higher a project's
IRR the more desirable it is to undertake the project. IRR should be higher than
the Cost of the project (interest rate in case of project financing)

 Sensitivity Analysis

While preparing and appraising projects certain assumptions are made in respect
of certain critical/sensitive variables like selling price/cost price per unit of
production, product-mix, plant capacity utilization, sales etc. which are assigned
a `VALUE' after estimating the range of variation of such variables. The `VALUE'
so assumed and taken into consideration for arriving at the profitability
projections is the `MOST LIKELY VALUE'. Sensitivity Analysis is a systematic
approach to reduce the uncertainties caused by such assumptions made. The
Sensitivity Analysis helps in arriving at profitability of the project wherein critical
or sensitive elements are identified which are assigned different values and the
values assigned are both optimistic and pessimistic such as increasing or
reducing the sale price/sale volume, increasing or reducing the cost of inputs etc.
and then the project viability is ascertained. The critical variables can then be
thoroughly examined by generally selecting the pessimistic options so as to

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 55


make possible improvements in the project and make it operational on viable
lines even in the adverse circumstances.

1. PREVENTIVE MONITORING SYSTEM (PMS)

Objectives of PMS
The objective of PMS is to track & evaluate the health of borrower’s account on a
continuous basis and detect:
• Unsatisfactory/adverse signals/indicators at an early stage in a
comprehensive manner.

• Thorough probe into reasons behind observed signals and analysis


thereof.

• Speedy corrective/remedial actions/steps to prevent the account from


becoming NPA as well as to minimize the loan losses.

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 63


Preventive Monitoring System consists of two parts:
i. PMS Index and Rank

PMS Index is a numerical index consisting of 29 indicators Parameters


grouped into 6 sections. Penalty rates (weights) in the form of numerical
values have been assigned to each indicator (parameter) depending upon
their degree of impact on health of an account. The score assigned to any
parameter is stored for last one year at any point of time, which is known
as Cumulative score. The section-wise maximum of cumulative scores is
to be summed up to arrive at PMS Index Score. Based on PMS Index
Scores a scale of 1 to 10 has been devised, which is known as PMS
Ranking Scale. The PMS Rank indicates the state of health of an account.
The lower the PMS Rank, better the health of account and vice-versa.
ii. PMS Report

PMS Report, which has eight parts, describes brief profile of the borrower,
position of accounts, details of signals contributing to PMS Index Score,
reasons behind adverse signals and proposes corrective/ remedial steps
with time frame.

2. QUARTERLY MONITORING SYSTEM (QMS)

Bank has prescribed the QMS system for monitoring performance of big
borrower accounts enjoying working capital facilities of Rs. 1crore & above from
the banking system. QMS includes the submission of data on the prescribed
formats depending upon the economic activity of the borrower. Under this system
financial and operational information/ data is required to be submitted in two
different sets of formats
i. QMS I

This form is required to be submitted within six weeks from the close of
the quarter to which it relates. It gives information about the operations

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 64


of the unit and its performance for the quarter, also giving reasons for
non-achievement of sales/production targets.
ii. QMS II

This form is required to be submitted within two months from the close of
the half-year to which it relates. In addition to providing comparative
position of the actuals vis-a-vis the projections accepted at the time of
sanction relating to the operations of the unit, this form also indicates the
`SOURCES' and `USES' of the funds generated by the unit, during the
half year. Critical analysis of this form can reveal the diversion of short-
term funds for long term uses.

4.0) BACKGROUND OF THE COMPANY:

In India the Health Care industry has been identified as one of the potential sector for investment
in the present day scenario. Till date, approximately 12% of the scope offered by the Health Care
sector in India has been tapped. Health Care industry in India is worth $17 billion and is
anticipated to grow by 13% every year. This sector encompasses hospitals enrolled to the
hospital networks, health care instruments, health care in the retail market. This prevailing
scenario has attracted the promoters to set up a modern health care centre at ABC, West Bengal.

They have incorporated a company on 28.08.2009 in the name of “XYZ Pvt. Ltd.”.

The unit has requested the Bank of Baroda for sanctioning Term Loan of Rs.635.00 lacs towards
the cost of medical equipment, medical furniture & accessories, electric installation, computer &
electronic systems etc.

Details of the entire projects is given below:

Line of Activity : Multi Speciality Hospital


Capacity ( Installed ) : 82 Beds (Including ICCU, HDU & NICU)

5.0 RANGE OF SERVICES PROPOSED TO BE CATERED AND FACILITIES PROPOSED


TO BE AVAILABLE AT THE HOSPITAL

6.0 MEDICAL EXPERTS INTERESTED TO RENDER THEIR SERVICES AND THEIR


PROFESSIONAL COMPETENCE

7.0 TECHNICAL APPRAISAL

MARKET PROSPECT
At present there are more than 10 lacs people in and around the location of the hospital. Majority
of population belong to Lower to Lower middle class category. Quite a few industries located
close by namely – Garden Reach Ship Builders, Budge Budge Bharat Petroleum Oil Terminus,
Bata Nagar, Kolkata Port Trust along with few thousands SMB industrial units. New housing
complexes (Greenfield city, Eden city, Purti Abasan, Hiland Riverside etc.) coming up in near
vicinity will introduce High and Middle class population to this hospital. But with the development
of new high rise and housing complexes mentioned herein the medical facilities for high and
middle class population will need to be catered. People here generally do not get the facility of
public medical care as the public hospitals are not equipped with the facilities of all sorts of
modern treatment. Moreover the treatments are delayed at those hospitals. People from this
locality therefore do not like to go to the public hospitals, rather, they prefer to go to private
hospitals where they know that proper care & treatment would be available. Major Private
hospitals are located at far from the area.

Competitor
There is no major competition in the area within 10 KM. Most of the hospitals are in South or
Central Kolkata. Few medium size hospitals & nursing homes i.e. G located at Kasba. CMRI at

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 70


Ekbalpur, AMRI at Dhakuria, R G Hospital are situated in the prime location, but away from the
locus of this Hospital.

SECURITY COVERAGE:
The company is offering following securities to secure the exposure:
Particulars (Rs. in Lacs)

Proposed Exposure: Term Loan 635.00

Primary Security for the proposed Term Loan


Hypothecation of moveable Fixed Assets as per the Project Report 898.71
Total Primary security 898.71
Primary security Coverage 141.53%

Collateral Security

storied building thereon at ABC belonging to Mr. Sudip Kumar Khanna, vide
sale deed No. **** dtd. 10.01.2008. Valuation of the property is proposed to
be Rs. 289.80 after completion, as per report submitted by M/s
R.M.Engineers, bank’s approved valuer, dtd. 07.05.2010.

Total Collateral security 289.80


Collateral coverage 45.64%

Total Security 1188.51


Total security coverage (%) 187.17

FACR 1.87

Comments on Security Coverage & Scope for additional collateral security–


 Collateral Security Coverage
Percentage is 45.64%
 Total Security Coverage Percentage is
187.17%
 Project FACR is 1.41 times

The security coverage from the assets created out of bank’s loan is 141.53%, which ensures the
sufficient security of our funds.

However, We had the discussions with the promoters for additional collaterals. They agreed to it
and informed that:

The proposed collateral coverage for the exposure is 45.64%, which further ensure the security
of our exposure.

Besides the above detailed security the proposed exposure to the company is to be further
secured by the personal guarantee of the promoter directors and their son, having joint worth at
Rs. 157.28 lacs as on 31.03.2009.
The Total security coverage and total FACR is 187.17 %, which is quite satisfactory and
acceptable.
we propose for acceptance of the proposed security coverage.

• Comments regarding credit rating – New Account. Project under Implementation.


As per our Domestic loan policy guideline’2009, the cut off point for acceptance of new
borrower is Obliger rating of BOB6 and above, under CRISIL BOBRAM. The obliger
rating is BOB6 in the present project. Hence the proposed borrower is acceptable to us.

Justification for the proposed rate of interest: ROI is based on the ‘Combined Rating’
of the CRISIL RAM based on which is CR6 and the unit has been classified as medium
industry.
In this case the ROI would be 1.75 % over BPLR i.e.@13.75 %p.a. With monthly rests.

Education and Health Care are 2 such areas, which is needed by every citizen in a state. Mr.
Khanna and his associates are engaged in Health care and education industry, which is
considered as the most viable business at present and in coming 10 years.

HEALTH CARE SCENARIO IN INDIA/WEST BENGAL

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 82


India with 112+ cr. population with steady rate of increase in population truly requires enormous
healthcare facilities, where Govt. and state Hospital, Clinical centers are neither adequate nor
fully equipped to cater to it. Out of the projected $14 Billion expenditure in Healthcare in India in
2013, approx. 50% will happen in six states including west Bengal.
In West Bengal, the Hospitals are becoming worst due to negligence of the administration & fund
crisis. The patients, having a little resource, prefer private Nursing Homes / Diagnostic Centers
than to Hospitals. The state needs more & more Hospitals in organized manner to take care of
the patients to the international standard not only in Kolkata but also in greater Kolkata.

As such the future of these two sectors is very bright.

9. CONCLUSION

9.1 Conclusion

The study at PNB gave a vast learning experience to me and has helped to
enhance my knowledge. During the study I learnt how the theoretical financial
analysis aspects are used in practice during the working capital finance and term
loan assessment. I have realized during my project that a credit analyst must
own multi-disciplinary talents like financial, technical as well as legal know-how.

The credit appraisal for business loans has been devised in a systematic
way. It is a process of appraising the credit worthiness of loan applicants. Thus it
extremely important for the lender bank to assess the risk associated with credit;
thereby ensure the security for the funds deposited by the depositors. There are
clear guidelines on how the credit analyst or lending officer has to analyze a loan
proposal. It includes phase-wise analysis which consists of 6 phases:

1. Financial statement analysis


2. Working capital and its assessment techniques
3. Techno Economic Feasibility Analysis
4. Credit risk assessment
5. Documentation
6. Loan administration

Punjab National Bank’s adoptions of the Projected Balance Sheet method


(Credit Monitoring Arrangement) of assessment procedures are based on sound
principles of lending. This method of assessment has certain flexibility required to
avoid any rigid approach to fixing quantum of finance. The PBS method have
been rationalized and simplified to facilitate complete flexibility in decision-
making.

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 86


To ensure asset quality, proper risk assessment right at the beginning, is
extremely important. That is why Credit Risk Management system is an essential
ingredient of the Credit Appraisal exercise. PNB has formulated a Credit Risk
Rating model, PNB Trac. It considers important parameters like profitability,
repayment capacity, efficiency of the unit, historical / industry comparisons etc
depending on the industry. PNB Trac is one of the best rating models present till
date.

Small and Medium Enterprises play a vital role for the growth of Indian
economy by contributing 45% of the industrial output, 40% of exports, 42 million
in employment, create one million jobs every year and produces more than 8000
quality products for the Indian and international markets. As a result, MSMEs are
today exposed to greater opportunities for expansion and diversification across
sectors.

The Indian market is growing rapidly and Indian industry is making


remarkable progress in various Industries like Manufacturing, Precision
Engineering, Food Processing, Pharmaceuticals, Textile & Garments, Retail, IT,
Agro and Service sectors. SMEs are finding increasing opportunities to enhance
their business activities in core sectors.

Though the SME industries are spread all over the urban areas, proper
infrastructure needs to be developed in the rural areas to establish these
industries there.

The SME units are functioning efficiently and effectively, but even now
there is lack of information regarding the inputs of these industries, like the raw
materials, skills, machinery and equipment.

There is need of high level research and development required to develop


these sectors in both the urban and rural areas.

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 87


The SME sector is almost at the initial stage of its growth. With further
advancements in technology, this sector is likely to grow further and contribute
greatly to the economy of India.

Therefore, it is vital to provide proper funds to these emerging industries


and strengthen the backbone of the economy.

9.2 Findings

After completing the entire project at Punjab National Bank the following key
findings as mentioned below were observed.

1. At Punjab National Bank, Circle Office the priority to appraise a proposal


was given to new or fresh clients over the existing clients presenting
proposals for renewal
2. Ratings, as being performed at PNB, are done once a year. Therefore, the
ratings do not take into account short term drastic changes like price level
changes (which are an issue with any method based on accounting
statements, since annual reports are based on historical cost basis of
accounting and other changes like sudden mishap/ of the counterparty are
not readily accounted for by the rating system due to long lag between
repeat ratings on the same account.
3. Some of the parameters in Business and industry evaluation are based on
the information provided by company, which in some cases may not be
sufficient. No specific guidelines are followed in such cases. Also, some of
the parameters here may be rendered redundant in some cases and may
push up/ push down the rating needlessly in these cases.
4. The present risk rating model does not have any mechanism to prioritize
certain sectors of the economy. There are certain sector in the economy
where risk spread is low and certain sectors where spread of risk is high

Financing the SME’s in PNB – Scope and Analysis 88


like real estate. Also, there are certain infrastructural projects which need
to be prioritized. The risk rating model is not flexible to incorporate all
these issues.
5. The BPLR system will soon be replaced by Base Rate system. Banks may
choose any benchmark to arrive at the Base Rate for a specific tenor that
may be disclosed transparently.
6. With the deregulation of the financial sector, the ability of the banks to
service the credit requirements of the SME sector depends on the
underlying transaction costs, efficient recovery processes and available
security. There is an immediate need for the banking sector to focus on
credit and finance requirements of SMEs.

9.3 Recommendations

The Credit Department at PNB Circle Office, Mumbai works at its full potential
and the staff is highly experienced and has a very strong intuitive sense. So,
there is no special recommendation on the entire process.

However, the procedure starting from getting loan application to


disbursement of loan takes around two-three months and by the time
disbursement is made, the market scenario changes. The process of loan
sanctioning should be more speedy.

In order to make the process more flexible and efficient, an electronic


database should be designed carrying all the available and important information
related to the proposals accepted, and it should be easily accessible to the Credit
Department. This will help reduce paperwork and loss of information.
