CHAPTER I:-

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Page 5: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

Executive summaryWith the growing competition in the market and globalization coming into role it has become essential for any Bank/organization to keep in touch with the recent technology. My subject of project mainly targets the NPAs in bank with reference to SSI & the recovery process thus adopted. Thus, for a bank to survive in a market it is very essential to stick to rules and regulations of RBI, as it is the governing body of every nationalized bank.In present economic scenario, we here many things of banks getting close due to high percentage of NPA. So the question comes in mind, that, what is NPA? NPA is an asset, which ceases to generate income to the bank. It is basically a loan for which the interest or installment or both remains unpaid for the period of 180 days. Thus to keep track of increasing amount of NPAs, banks have set up recovery Departments. Bank of Maharashtra where I completed my project is also one of them. Recovery is most important department of Banks.In many financial services, recovery forms the heart of its operation without which the organization can’t survive. If there is no satisfactory recovery the organization will become sick. Bank of Maharashtra has a very effective recovery department. It has a team of experts controlling the recovery of loan, who are equipped with very good system. This helps in one side the normal recovery and on the other side also in timely identification of default cases. The department acts in more proactive manner than reactive.With today’s world getting close and considering a world a global village, Bank of Maharashtra has been successful in expanding its wings by opening new branches and updating themselves with the latest technologies.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Page 14: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Research Methodology is a way to systematically solve the problems. It may be understood to study how research is done scientifically. In this, we study various steps that are generally adopted by the researcher in studing research problems along with the logic behind them, to understand why we are using particular method of technique so that the research results are capable of being evaluated.During my project work, I have used a lot of data to understand the concept of NPA and to study the Recovery process. The data collected was interpreted and then used as information in project.

Data collection –

To collect journals and magazines form the library of the bank.

To collect annual report of bank.

Library Data –

I am thankful to library department of the college for extending their support in order to collect references from various books. The details of books referred from library are mentioned in later part of the project, in Bibliography.

Use of manual –

As to keep updated from latest norms of RBI for NPA, I have also referred to the latest RBI manual having guidelines for calculation of NPA.Internet sites –The sites thus referred by me for the project were mainly of RBI & banks own site. The details of which are mentioned in Bibliography.

CHAPTER V:-PROJECT WORK UNDERTAKEN

Page 16: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

SMALL SCALE INDUSTRIES

Evolution –

A working definition of small scale unit was first evolved in the year 1955 when the Govt had initiated a programme of promotional assistance to Small Enterprises. At that time, the Small Scale units were which were employing less than 50 workers if using power and less than 100 workers without use of power and with capital asset not exceeding Rs. 5 lacs. A review of definition was taken during 1959 since it was not serving the purpose, of maximizationof utilization of equipment and capital outlay. According, the ceiling on employment was made applicable to each shift separately to encourage multiple shift working. However, in the year 1960, the employment limit was deleted and the investment limit was raised for an ancilliary unit to Rs 10 lacs. With a gradual picking up of economic and industrial activity after implementation of various five year plans, need was left to enhance the investment ceiling and accordingly in the year 1966, it was enhanced to Rs 7.5 lacs (whereby the investment ment in plant and machinery only ). In the year 1975 the ceiling was further enhanced to Rs 10 lacs for SSI and Rs 15 lacs for SSI ancillary. Another revision took place in 1980 when the ceiling was raised to Rs 20 lacs and Rs 25 lacs respectively and then w.e.f.18.3.85 to Rs 35 lacs and Rs 45 lacs respectively. However with effect from 21.12.1999 the following requirements are to be complied with by an industrial undertaking to be graded as Small Scale Industry:-An industrial undertaking in which the investment in fixed assets in plant and machinery wheather held on ownership terms on lease or on hire purchase does not exceed Rs 10 million. ( Subject to the condition that the unit is not owned, controlled or subsidiary of any other industrial undertaking)

8

Page 17: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

Ancillary Industrial Undertaking-

The following requirements are to be complied with by any industrial undertaking for being regarded as ancillary industrial undertaking:-An industrial undertaking which is engaged or is proposed to be engaged in the manufacture or production of parts, components, subassemblies, tooling or intermediaries, or the rendering of services and undertaking supplies or renders or proposed to supply or render not less than 50 percent of its production or services, as the case may be, to one or more other industrial undertakings and whose investment in fixed asset in plant and machinery whether held on ownership terms or on lease or on hire purchase, does not exceed 10 million.

Tiny Enterprises-

Investment limit in plant and machinery in respect to tiny enterprises is Rs 2.5 million irrespective of location of unit.

Women Entrepreneurs-

A Small Scale Industrial unit/ Industry related service or business enterprise, managed by one or more women entrepreneurs in proprietary concerns, or in which she/ they individually or jointly have a share capital o not less than 51 % as partners/ shareholders/ directors of private limited company/ members of co operative society.

Small Scale Service and Business (Industry Related) Enterprises (SSSBEs) :- SSSBEs industry related service/ business enterprises with investment upto Rs 5,00,000 in fixed assets, excluding land and building, are called Small Scale Service Business Enterprises (SSSBEs). This limit has been raised to Rs 1 million w.e.f. September 2000.

Page 18: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

SSI Registration-

Small Scale and Ancillary units (i.e. undertaking with investment in plant and machinery of less than Rs 10 million) should seek registration with Director of Industries of concerned state Govt.The main purpose of registration is to maintain statistics and to maintain a role of such units for the purposes of providing incentives and support services.States have generally adopted the uniform registration procedures as per the guidelines. However, there may be some modifications done by states. It must be noted that small industries is basically a state subject. States use the same registration scheme for implementing their own policies. It is possible that some states may have a ‘SIDO registration scheme’ and a ‘state registration scheme’.

Arranging Finance-No SSI unit can take off without monetary support. This need for finance can be classified into following types:-

Long and medium term loans.

Short term or working capital requirements.

Risk capital.

Seed capital/ marginal money.

Bridge loans.

Financial assistance in India for SSI unit is available from a variety of institutions.

Page 19: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

Following are some institutions:-

SIDBI: Small Industries Development Bank of India (refinance and direct lending)

SFCs: State Level Financial Corporation e.g. Delhi Financial Corporation.

NSIC: National Small Industry Corporation

Small Industry Development Corporation of various states.

Commercial/ Co-operative Banks.

DIC: District Industry centre.

Page 20: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

CONCEPT OF NPA

NPA means Non Performing Assets. An asset, including a leased asset, becomes non-performing when it ceases to generate income for bank. As per RBI Guidelines a Non Performing Asset is a loan or advance where:

1. Interest and/ or installment of principal remains overdue for a period of more than 90 days in respect of term loan,

2. The account remains ‘out of order’ in respect of an Overdraft/ Cash Credit (OD/CC),

3. The bill remains overdue for the period of more than 90 days in the case of bills purchased and discounted.

An asset is classified as non performing asset (NPAs) if dues in form of principle and interest are not paid by the borrower for a period of 180 days. However with effect from March 2004 as per RBI guidelines, default status would be given to a borrower if dues are not paid for 90 days. If any advance or credit facilities granted by bank to borrower becomes non performing, then the bank will have to treat all the advances/ credit facilities granted to a borrower as non performing without having any regard to the fact that there may still exists certain advances / credit facilities having performing status.

Overdue:-

Any amount due to bank under any credit facility is ‘overdue’ if it is not paid on the due date fixed by bank.

Page 21: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

Income Recognition

The policy of income recognition has to be objective and based on the record of recovery. According to the international terms income from non performing Assets (NPA) is not recognized on accrual basis but is booked as income only when it is actually received. Therefore, the banks should not change and take to income account interest on any NPA.

However interest on advances against term deposits, NSCs, IVPs, KVPs, and life policies may be taken to income account on the due date, provided adequate margin is available in the accounts.

If the Government guaranteed advances become NPA, the interest on such advances should not be taken to income account unless the interest has been realized.

RBI guidelines on income recognition (Interest income on NPAs)

Banks recognized income including interest income on advances on accrual basis. That is income is accounted for as and when it is earned.

The prime-facie condition for accrual of income is that it should not be unreasonable to expect its ultimate collection. However, NPAs involves significant uncertainty with respect to its ultimate collection.

Considering this fact, in accordance with the guidelines for income recognition issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), banks should not recognize interest income on such NPAs until it is actually realized.

13

Page 22: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

irregularity – wise master charts, etc. so that follow – up of supervised advances is cost effective and efficient.

Timely receipt, proper scrutiny and interpretation of data to ascertain shortcomings in hypothecation stock statements/ Monthly select operation Data / Quarterly Information System Returns (as per core committee) submitted by the borrowers at the prescribed intervals.

Constant touch with persons trading with the borrower to obtain market report in regard to his trade dealings, solvency, etc.

Follow-up

In the case of deficiencies / irregularities observed, the borrower concerned / department should be vigorously followed up for rectification of these irregularities.

Issue of reminders / notices for deposit installments, overdue interest, overdrawing and for realization of overdue bills etc to the borrowers at appropriate time.

Personal contracts with the borrowers at periodic intervals.

In case of the defaulter in rural areas, letter may be written with full

particulars of the borrower to the manager of the bank branch and secretary of primary Agriculture Credit Society in whose service area the borrower resides or operates the activity, with copies to:-

Controlling officer of the addressee bank/ society

Lead Bank officer of the district

Bank’s own district coordinator

Page 23: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

Recovery from NPAs : A few Concerns

whether banks go in for setting up of recovery branches or not, what is more

important is to strengthen the recovery machinery. In this regard, few aspects of the

problem need to be worked & should be considered on priority basis. Finally,

branches, which require close monitoring, also need to be prioritized.

Diagnostic study has to be considered by each bank in respect of cases lost in the

court of law during the recent past. The study should highlight the nature of

deficiencies found by the court authorities in evidences, claims and procedures.

Conclusion of the study will help in strengthening the recovery system.

Involvement of the lawyers in suit filed cases should be given utmost importance.

Unfortunately, they seem to be too busy and, therefore bank cases are not monitored

in time. In this regard, the present system of empanelment of lawyers needs fresh

look. Similarly, some incentive schemes should be worked our so that the efficient

lawyers are rewarded adequately.

Page 24: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

Enforcement of securities has been one of the problem areas. This requires certain

expertise and contacts with the local people, police department etc. to supplement

banker’s efforts, services of outside professionals may be employed. But it should be

ensured that such professionals do not take unlawful measures in taking possession of

securities. In view of rising number of decreed cases, certain schemes have to be

worked out to involve professionals in the enforcement of securities.

It is suggested that banks may jointly promote a subsidiary to act an asset recovery

agency. It can purchase decreed debts at certain discount. Thereafter, it should be able

to recover the dues fully from borrowers by creating professional expertise, and

infrastructure, developing contacts, etc. finally it should work as a profit making

venture. This will substitute the proposed idea of setting up of Asset Reconstruction

Fund.

The list of innovative schemes could be long. If these are implemented, reduction in

NPAs may take place. But it should be ensured that there would be no more addition

to the list of NPAs in the future.

The present system of interviewing a borrower, at the time of credit sanction should be

made more meaningful. It can be ensured to elicit the necessary information about the

managerial competence, professional background of an entrepreneur, planning budgeting

and control system, decision- making system, development of staff etc.

With the growing complexities of business and different risks associated with back

lending, it has become essential to upgrade the quality of appraisal for which extensive

Page 25: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

use of computers in lending area on one hand and creation of specialized credit appraisal

cadre for for different industries on the other, are called for. Finally the concept of

accountability has to be introduced in management of lending. In this regard, the

corporate office has to work out certain arrangements whereby delegation of authority

and accountability go hand in hand.

Need for Recovery

In the wake of financial sector reforms, generation of profit is the main concern of banks.

In this respect, the Narsimha committee is of the opinion that the viability of banks

should be the sole criterion for survival and growth in the competitive environment. For

this purpose each bank has to maintain low risk bearing advances. Hence, a paramount

task before banks is to bring down Non Performing Advances. This can as well be done

by writing off NPAs which is not feasible due to low profitability of banks. So, they have

to concentrate basically on recovery. In the last year, significant changes have taken place

in system and arrangements relating to recovery of NPAs. Consequently, the percentage

of NPAs to total advances in Bank Of Maharashtra has declined from 5.53% to 3.50 %

(i.e. the ratio of gross NPAs to gross advances ) & Net NPAs to Net advances has been

reduced from 2.03 % in FY 2005-06 to 1.21 % in FY 2006-07. Further, analysis of

achievements of the target set under Mouse shows that there are four areas in which

banks made considerable progress, and reduction in NPAs in one of them. But the banks

have yet to go a long way to go to make full recovery from NPAs. Every bank has its

own policy for recovery. Accordingly, Bank Of Maharashtra also has its own policy for

Page 26: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

Recovery. Thus to keep control on the percentage of NPAs Bank has framed the

recovery policy, which includes the following:-

Debt Recovery Tribunal-

Although the data relating to age of NPAs are not available at macro level, banking

circles point out that by and large, avenues for recoveries have now been exhausted and

they are left with mostly handcore NPAs or dead assets. They are mostly age old suit

filed cases and, therefore, recovery has to be effected mostly through court settlements.

But our judicial system is inefficient in timely disposal of bank cases. In this context, the

statement of objects of objects and reasons annexed to Bill on Special Tribunal states

that, as of September 1990, more than 15 lakh cases of the public sector banks were

pending in various courts. On an average, it takes more than 10 years to get a court

verdict. So, to overcome the problem of expeditious court remedies, the government has

set up Special Tribunals in Jaipur and culcatta under the Recovery of Debts Due to

Banks & Financial Institutions Act, 1993.

Recovery Camps-

Tribunals or no tribunals have to continue to deal with NPAs on war footing. In this

regard, Bank Of Maharashtra has a policy of organizing special “ recovery camps”.

Conducting of recovery camps proves to be very helpful to recover the dues, particularly

in rural/ semi urban branches. Participation of all concerned like Bank Staff, Govt

Page 27: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

Agencies, etc. if done would be of immense help in ensuring desired result through such

camps. These camps are very effective, less expensive and create congenial atmosphere

for recovery on large scale.

Regional Level Review Committee (RLRC)-

To monitor the Non-Performing Assets meaningfully and systematically the Bank

advised the Regional Offices to activate effectively RLRC to ensure creative dialogue on

NPA accounts every month and devising methods to bring down NPA level

expeditiously.

Recovery through Private Agencies-

For improving recovery in decreed account, the bank opted for this option. For this the

Bank gives a specific percentage of commission to the advocates or agents, based on the

amount recovered.

Lok Adalats-

The settlement of NPAs pertaining to Banks through Lok Adalats is already in vogue.

However, on taking review it is observed that expected advantage of Lok Adalats has not

been derived by Banks for settlement of NPAs. Thus for increasing use of the forum of

Lok Adalats to settle banking disputes involving smaller amounts, Reserve Bank Of India

has framed certain guidelines. Based on the said guidelines, Bank Of Maharashtra has

framed certain modalities for effective implementation, which includes cover of NPA

Page 28: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

accounts both suit filed and non suit filed classified in Doubtful and Loss category, with

outstanding total dues upto Rs 20.00 lakhs.

Problem Faced in Recovery-

Whenever a bank sanction a loan to a borrower, it applies interest at a specific percentage

on the loan amount. Thus the borrower is expected to repay the whole amount i.e. the

principal amount + interest amount to the bank. The bank takes certain securities against

the loan sanctioned to the borrower. These are in the form of fixed assets or current

assets.

The usual observation of the bank is that the fixed asset losses their value over a period of

time, and are also difficult to sell, thus they probably try for the current assets, as they are

liquid in nature and can easily fetch the bank their dues.

Above all the bank practices and above mentioned strategies to recover the dues from the

borrower. Usually for the account turning into NPA has two reasons, first is of willful

default of the borrower & second if the bank do not properly scrutinize the loan account.

In most of the cases it is borrowers fault as they are unable to repay the loans, thus to

recover dues from them the banks adopts the following policies.

Once all the efforts to recover the bank dues are exhausted, the bank is compiled to file

the suit in the court / tribunal. In fact the situation indicates the borrowers non

cooperation and therefore, requires vigorous follow up.

Page 29: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

After filing the suit, constant follow up with the court or tribunal through the advocate is

done. As of march 2005 the amount involved in suit filed and decreed accounts is Rs

694.20 crores.

Thus to reduce the number of NPAs and have an efficient recovery the present system of

interviewing the borrower, at the time of credit sanction should be made more

meaningful.

It can be ensured to elicit the necessary information about the meaningful competence,

professional background of an entrepreneur, planning budgeting and control system,

decision making system, development staff etc.

With the growing complexities of business and different risks associated with back

lending, it has become essential to upgrade the quality of appraisal for which extensive

use of computers in lending area on one hand and creation of specialized credit appraisal

cadre for for different industries on the other, are called for. Finally the concept of

accountability has to be introduced in management of lending. In this regard, the

corporate office has to work out certain arrangements whereby delegation of authority

and accountability go hand in hand.

Despite of fact that recovery is most difficult task for every bank, Bank Of Maharashtra is

of the view that it prefers to utilize the provisions of “securitizations act” to bring its

Page 30: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

defaulters to the negotiations table and execute compromise deals towards early recovery

of Non Performing Assets.

Compromise proposal-

A compromise proposal may be called where borrowers agrees to pay a certain amount to

the banker with some concession. A large number of compromise proposals are being

approved by banks with a view to reduce their NPAs and recycling of funds instead of

resorting to legal procedures.

It is an effective tool for speedy recovery of Banks dues in non performing assets through

settlement in which the bank agrees to receive the dues with minimum sacrifice and

borrower agrees to pay the dues by getting certain concessions in full settlement of the

dues.

According to Banks policy, the bank studies the history of the borrower to whom it is

sanctioning the loan. According the loan amount, installment, loan period & interest is

decided. When a borrower fails to repay the full amount of the loan he approaches

towards the bank for a compromise proposal. Accordingly the bank decides as to how

much amount should be compromised. In case of the consortium account the decision

taken by the leader bank is accepted by other banks related to the borrower.

CHAPTER VI:-

ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION OF THE DATA

Page 34: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION OF DATA

Every bank in order to recover the dues has a recovery process set for them. The usual

legal recovery process adopted by the bank in the following nature.

Legal Process of Recovery

Notice to Guarantors

Authority Letter to lawyer

Demanding amount through notice

Personal Visit to the Borrower

Not receiving amountReceiving amount from client

File case in court

Recovery expenses Completion of verification

Stopped recovery process after receiving all patment

Debit note for expenses

Lawyers argue before issuing

Page 35: 0601082 npa and recovery process with respect to small scale industries

During the project work I came across with cases of compromise proposals. Thus these

cases are taken in order to the practical feel of the Banks compromise offer and recovery

process adopted thereafter.
