    CHAPTER NO. 1

    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

    With 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. Thus, for a bank to survive in a

    market it is very essential to stick to rules and a regulation 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,

  • 7/31/2019 Project 222

    7/40

    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 90 days. Thus to keep track of

    increasing amount of NPAs, banks have set up recovery Departments. Recovery is most

    important department of Banks. The causes of NPAs are varied. The factors responsible for

    formation of NPAs could be internal or external. Internal factors could be due to fault of the

    bank or the borrower. NPA due to fault of the bank occurs due to the following reasons: Poor

    credit appraisal, Poor Credit Monitoring, Lack of organizational learning in the bank,

    Improper repayment schedule, Timing of loan, Inadequacy of trained and knowledgeable

    staff, Adverse selection of borrowers, Targeted lending, Contagious default etc. NPA due to

    fault of the borrower could be because of willful default, Diversion of funds, Incorrect

    financial information and Inefficient management. The external factors include Natural

    calamities, Change in government policies, change in technology, Liberalization, Loan

    waiver schemes of the government and Defaulter friendly legal system.

    In many financial services, recovery forms the heart of its operation without which the

    organization cant survive. If there is no satisfactory recovery the organization will

    become sick.

    With todays world getting close and considering a world a global village

    CHAPTER NO. 2

    NPAs have become a threat to the entire economy as the success of the other sectors

    Depends upon the success of the financial sector. Hence study of NPAs is a very

    Important exercise. Banks not only need to recover NPAs but also prevent formation of

    fresh NPAs. NPAs have an impact not only on the banks but also on the entire economy.

    The effect of NPAs is: Impact on Profitability, Excessive capital requirement, high cost

    of funds to genuine borrowers, Excessive focus on credit risk management, Slow

    Recycling of funds, Asset liability mismatch, Attitude of Banks towards credit delivery

    Reputation risk and impact on the staff morale.

    RBI has laid down certain Prudential Norms with respect to Asset Classification,

    Income

    Recognition and Provisioning relating to advances, which the banks need to follow.

    These guidelines help the banks to identify their NPA properly. A proper provision is

  • 7/31/2019 Project 222

    9/40

    9

    Also made for these NPA so that whenever a NPA is written off the provision can be

    Written off and not the capital. It is very necessary to manage NPA properly. There are

    Various techniques to identify whether an account is turning bad. Internal checks and

    Controls like appointing a relationship manager for monitoring accounts, credit rating

    System, special mention category and early warning signals can help in identifying

    Whether an account is turning bad.

    Other techniques that could be used are Loan review mechanism, Effective MIS,

    Financial statements of the borrower etc. Pre sanction appraisals and post sanction

    Follow up also needs to be done. Thus the bank is saved from the default risk of the

    Borrower.

    RBI has introduced certain measures like the NI Act, Civil Suit, SARFAESI

    Act, 2002 to facilitate recovery.

    CHAPTER NO. 3

    Union Bank of India was inaugurated by the Father of the Nation, Mahatma

    Gandhi,onNovember 11, 1919. Started as a limited company in Mumbai, it was one of

    the few Financial Commercial banks in India. Until 1947, UBI had only 4 branches - 3

    In Mumbai and 1 in Saurashtra, all concentrated in key trade canters. Catering to all

    the sectors of the society, be it agriculture, industry, trade and commerce, services or

    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 studying

    research problems along with the logic behind them, to understand why we

    are using particular method or technique so that the research results are

    capable of being evaluated.

    Data collection The data collected for the project was in the form of

    written as well as verbal information regarding the loan indication.

    1) Primary data- The information about the bank is gathered from the

    files of the loan taker or customer of the bank.

    2) Information from annual report of the bank

    3) I have also As to keep updated from latest norms of RBI for NPA referred to the

    latest RBI manual having guidelines for calculation of NPA.

    CHAPTER NO. 7

    Findings

    CAUSES OF NON PERFORMING ASSETS

    DUE TO FAULT OF THE BORROWER-

    1. Willful default: There have been a number of borrowers who have

    strategically defaulted on their debt service obligations realizing that the

    legal recourse available to creditors is slow in achieving results.

    2. Diversion of funds: Sometimes the borrower may take a loan for a

    particular purpose and use the loan amount for some other purpose. The

    borrower may engage in activities that may be personally beneficial to him

    but may increase the probability of default and thus harm the lender. The

    borrower may invest in unprofitable projects, in projects with higher risk,

    in which the borrower profits if the project succeeds but the lender bears

  • 7/31/2019 Project 222

    25/40

    25

    most of the loss if the project fails. In many cases the borrower instead of

    using the loan amount for the required purpose, uses it mostly for

    expansion, diversification, and modernization of the existing plant. Due to

    this the project for which the loan is taken does not materialize and the loan

    turns bad.

    3. Incorrect financial information:

    In many cases borrowers submit incorrect salary slips, financial statements,

    bank statements, security etc to get their loans sanctioned. Even during

    field investigations visits the borrower is able to show a good picture. The

    bank is unaware of the actual facts and grants the loan on the basis of

    documents. These loans ultimately become bad.

    4. Inefficient management:

    Many borrowers do not have the sources to do repay loan effectively. In

    spite of the other factors being present like adequate finance/property the

    borrower becomes defaulter due to inefficient management of funds.

    EXTERNAL CAUSES:

    The external factors are those which are attributable to reason, which are

    beyond the control of the banks and thus, the banks cannot be held

    responsible for the defaults caused by these factors. Some external causes

    are:

    1. Natural calamities like floods and accidents:

    Due to natural calamities the house/building gets destroyed and the

    borrowers are left with no home, to repay the loans for. The bank cannot

  • 7/31/2019 Project 222

    26/40

    26

    enforce the security on the loan as that also gets destroyed. Thus the

    advance given for the projects becomes bad.

    2. Change in Government policies: Government policies are responsible

    to some extent for adding to the volume of non-performing assets of banks.

    Loans are taken keeping in mind current policies. But when the policies are

    changed the prospects of certain projects gets affected, as the new policy

    may be different from the earlier one. At this stage the project cannot be

    reversed, thus leading to its failure. Thus the funding for that project

    becomes NPA.

    3. Change in interest rates:

    Sometimes loans are taken keeping in mind that the interest rates will be

    same over the period of repayment. But with factors like inflation, change

    in repo rates by RBI. Due to these factors the loan repayment burden on the

    borrower increases leading to defaulters/NPAs.

    4. Defaulter friendly legal system:

    The legal system in India does not permit early recovery of dues. It is

    sympathetic towards borrowers and works against banks interest. These

    legal procedures are a drain on resources and are highly time consuming as

    the matters get invariably delayed with law courts granting adjournments

    one after another for any small reason. More money is spent than what is

    hoped to be recovered by pursuing these cases in the courts of law. There

    may be a tendency to write off a small amount of advances in the face of

  • 7/31/2019 Project 222

    27/40

    27

    prohibitive legal and administrative cost and inordinate delay in final

    settlement.

    3. IMPACT OF NON PERFORMING ASSETS

    At the macro level, NPAs have affected the supply line of Credit of the

    potential lenders thereby having a deleterious effect on capital formulation and

    arresting the economic activity in the country.

    At the micro level, unsustainable levels of NPAs have eroded current profits of

    banks. They have led to reduction in interest income and increase in provisions

    and have restricted recycling of funds.

    NPAs not only affect the profitability of the bank but also have other serious

    impacts.

    1. Impact on Profitability:

    Performance in terms of profitability is a benchmark for any business

    enterprise including the banking industry. However, increasing NPAs have a

    direct impact on banks profitability as legally banks are not allowed to book

    income on such accounts and at the same time banks are forced to make

    provision on such assets as per the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) guidelines.

    The enormous provisioning of NPA together with the holding cost of such

    non-productive assets over the years has acted as a severe drain on the

    profitability of the PSBs. The minimum cost of

    Holding NPAs is around 7% p.a. (reckoning average cost of funds at 6% plus

    1% service charge).

  • 7/31/2019 Project 222

    28/40

    28

    Also due to the advance becoming bad, interest is not received on it and hence

    the income reduces to that extent. They are not merely non-remunerative but

    also cost absorbing and profit eroding.

    2. Excessive Capital requirement:

    Writing off of loans requires capital and the banks have to maintain capital

    adequacy even on NPAs. The capital adequacy ratio is directly related to the

    quality of loan assets of the Bank. A bank can make losses and requires capital

    to write it off. Since these losses are written off against capital, fresh capital is

    required whenever any advance is written off. Thus any increase in defaults

    will require increase in capital whenever they are written off.

    Every bank has to maintain some amount of capital in the books on the basis

    of its risk-weighted average of assets. If an advance turns bad, it continues to

    be a part of the assets thus requiring the bank to maintain that much amount of

    capital in the books. No interest is earned on the advance but still the bank has

    to maintain capital on assets, which are not yielding any income.

    3. Excessive focus on credit risk management:

    The most important business implication of NPAs is that it leads to credit risk

    management assuming priority over the other aspects of banks functioning.

    The banks whole machinery would thus be pre-occupied with recovery

    procedures rather than concentrating on expanding business.

    4. Slow recycling of funds:

    The advances that are repaid and the interest on them that a bank gets are

    recycled to give further advances. Now if an account turns bad funds are not

    received thus slowing down the process. Supply of funds gets reduced which

  • 7/31/2019 Project 222

    29/40

    29

    affects credit expansion. Thus there is slow recycling if funds and the bank

    cannot lend money for productive activities to improve earnings.

    5. Asset Liability mis-match:

    Increasing NPAs result in asset liability mis-match. If non-interest earning

    assets i.e. NPAs are funded through short term liabilities there will be a mis-

    match. To avoid this mis-match NPAs

    Should be funded by long-term liabilities. But it becomes difficult to mobilize

    large amount of long-term funds for these assets.

    6. Reputation risk:

    The credit rating of a bank may get affected due to disclosures on quantum

    and movement of NPAs, provisions etc. The risk perception towards the bank

    may increase and the bank may not be able to mobilize enough deposits even

    at a higher rate of interest. This would affect the competitiveness of the bank.

    7. Impact on staff morale:

    High level of NPAs affects the staff morale. There may be a conflict among

    the different departments as to who is responsible for the high level of NPA. It

    may also lead to low productivity because the staff gets involved in the

    recovery process and they do not get time to do their normal work.

    8. Impact on the real sector:

    The growth of the real sector ultimately depends upon the success of the financial sector.

    Large level of NPAs may affect the functioning of the banks and hence the main function of

    The bank of accepting deposits and lending money may get affected. Inadequacy of funds

    will

    Adversely affect the success of the real sector.

    CHAPTER NO. 8

    MANAGEMENT OF NON PERFORMING ASSETS

    The quality and performance of advances have a direct bearing on the

    profitability and viability of banks. Despite an efficient credit appraisal and

    disbursement mechanism, problems can still arise due to various factors. The

    essential component of a sound NPA management system is quick

    identification of non-performing advances, their containment at minimum

    levels and ensuring that their effect on the financials is minimum.

    The most effective way to recover NPA is to first stop an account from turning

    bad. If it can be identified that an account is turning bad then many corrective

    steps can be taken to prevent it from turning bad. Hence a bank must take all

    the steps necessary to ensure that an account doesnt turn bad.

    TECHNIQUES FOR NPA IDENTIFICATION

    1. Internal checks and controls:

    High levels of NPAs dampen the performance of banks. Thus the

    identification of potential problem accounts and their close monitoring

    assumes great importance. Most banks have Early Warning Systems (EWS)

    for identification of potential NPAs. However the actual processes followed

    differ from bank to bank.

    The major components of a EWS followed by banks in India as brought out by

    a study conducted by RBI are:

    Designating a Relationship manager/ Credit officer for monitoring

    accounts:

    The official is expected to have complete knowledge of the borrower, his

    business, his future plans etc. The manager has to keep in constant touch

    with the borrower and report all developments impacting the account. He

    also has to conduct scrutiny and activity inspections.

    Credit rating system:

    Credit Rating system is an indicator of individual credit exposure and is used

    to identify measure and monitor the credit risk of individual proposals. Most

    banks in India have put in place the system of internal credit rating. While

    most of them have developed their own models, a few banks have adopted

    credit rating models designed by rating agencies. These models take into

    account various types of risks viz. financial, industry and management, etc

    associated with a borrower unit. The exercise is generally done at the time of

  • 7/31/2019 Project 222

    32/40

    32

    sanction of new borrower account and at the time of review/ renewal of

    existing credit facilities.

    Know your client profile (KYC):

    Most banks in India have a system of preparing know your client (KYC)

    profile/credit report. As a part of KYC system, visits are made on clients and

    their places of business/units. The frequency of such visits depends on the

    nature and needs of relationship.

    Watch-List/ Special mention category:

    The grading of the banks risk assets is an important internal control tool.

    The management has to identify and monitor potential risks of a loan asset.

    The purpose of identification of potential NPAs is to ensure that

    appropriate preventive/corrective steps could be initiated

    By the bank to protect against the loan asset becoming non-performing.

    Most of the banks have a system to put certain borrower accounts under the

    watch list or special mention category if performing advances operating

    under adverse business or economic conditions are exhibiting certain

    distress signals. The categorization of such accounts provides early

    warning signals to anticipate credit deterioration and take necessary

    preventive steps to avoid their slippage into non-performing assets.

    Early Warning Signals:

    A host of early warning signals are used by different banks for identification

    of potential NPAs. Most banks in India have laid down a series of operational,

    financial, transactional indicators that could serve to identify emerging

    problems in credit exposures at an early stage.

    Early warning signals can be classified into five broad categories:

    a) Financial b) Banking and c) External factors.

    Financial Warning signals:

    Default in repayment obligation

    Deterioration in regularity of repayment.

    Banking related signals:

    Declining bank balances/operations in the account

    Frequent delays in submitting financial data regarding the construction,

    Frequent requests for time for paying the EMIs.

    Signals relating to external factors:

    Economic recession

    Changes in government/regulatory policies

    2. Loan review Mechanism:

    Loan review mechanism (LRM) is a tool to bring about qualitative

    improvement in credit administration. It is used for monitoring large borrower

    accounts with a view to identifying potential NPAs. LRM involves an

    independent assessment of the quality of an advance, over a cut-off limit, soon

    after sanction and periodically thereafter. It helps track weaknesses developing

    in the account for initiating corrective measures in time. It provides the Top

    Management with information on quality of credit administration, including

    credit sanction process, risk evaluation and post-sanction follow-up. LRM is

    expected to significantly contribute towards preventing and limiting

    emergence of NPAs.

    3. Effective MIS:

    It is the most important tool for planning and policy decision-making. It

    facilitates compilation of data, its necessary processing and use for

    implementing the plans and policies for attainment of corporate objectives.

    The importance of MIS has increased manifold, since the introduction of

    Prudential accounting norms on Income Recognition, Asset Classification and

    Provisioning. An effective MIS can help the bank if it keeps a record of the list

    of defaulters and updates it regularly. The data on NPA not only attracts the

    attention of the management but also the Government, RBI and the general

    public. The overall performance of the bank is judged based on the above

    information. Thus having an effective MIS is very important for the bank.

    5. Usage of financial statements in assessing the risk of default for lenders:

    For banks and financial institutions, both the balance sheet and income

    statement have a key role to play by providing valuable information on a

    borrowers viability

    NPAs is a major threat to the UBI and is a major hurdle in thegrowth of the UBI .

    More attention needs to be given to the study of NPAs so as toprevent them.

    Stricter norms and their proper implementation are required forsanctioning of loans.

    Equal importance to pre-sanction as well as post-sanction follow-upof loans is needed.

    Use of MIS is an important way to control and prevent NPAs. Sharing of common database of defaulters and NPAs between

    different banks is required.

    Laws relating defaulters and NPAs needs to be updated and stricter. Proper management and communication are required within the

    branch of a bank and also among different branches of the bank.
