Banks has introduced New Rating Scales for borrower for

giving loans. Rating is given on the basis of scores out of
100. Bank gives loans to the borrower as per their rating like
SBI gives loans to the borrower up to SB8 rating as it has
average risk till SB8 rating. From SB9 rating the risk
increases. So banks does not give loans after SB8 rating.

LOAN ADMINISTRATION PRE SANCTION PROCESS
Preliminary appraisal:
Sound credit appraisal involves analysis of the viability of
operations of a business and the capacity of the promoters
to run it profitably and repay the bank the dues
The companys Memorandum and Articles of Association
should be scrutinized carefully to ensure that there are no
clauses prejudicial to the Banks interests

Towards this end the preliminary appraisal will examine the following aspects of a
proposal. Banks lending policy and other relevant guidelines/RBI guidelines:
Industry related risk factors

Credit risk rating
Profile of the promoters/senior management personnel of the project
List of defaulters
Caution lists
Government regulations impacting on the industry
Financial status whether it is acceptable

Whether the project cost acceptable or not
Debt/ Equity ratio whether acceptable
Organizational set up with a list of Board of Directors &
indicating the qualifications & experience in the industry
Demand and supply projections based on the overall market
prospects together with a copy of the market survey report
Estimates of sales, cost of production and profitability
Projected profit and loss account and balance sheet for the
operating year
Audited profit loss account and balance sheet for the past
three years

LOAN ADMINISTRATION POST SANCTION PROCESS
The post-sanction credit process can be broadly
classified into three stages:
Follow-up
Supervision
Monitoring
which together facilitate efficient and effective credit
management and maintaining high level of standard assets

ANALYSIS OF THE CASE

Janak Transport Company is an existing profit
making unit
The main chunk behind giving loan is that Janak
Transport Company is doing contract with ONGC
since incorporation

experience as transport contractor with ONGC
The unit has got confirm order/ tie-up with ONGC
The promoters contribution to the project is

The current ratio is 1.42 that is satisfactory
ANALYSIS OF THE CASE (CONTD)

Profits in the last two years:- Min. Rs. 3 lacs with
rising trend
TOL/TNW should be max. 3 which is 12.80 here, as
the co. has done multiple banking it has o/s loans with
other banks also but the co. is regularly making the
payment of principal amount along with the interest so
the loan is given.
The bank checks commercial viability of the company
& found that the DSCR for term loan is 2.02 which is
satisfactory
The net sales & PAT of the company is increasing
year after year so overall profitability is good

The unit plans to initially market its product in
Gujarat, Maharashtra, Rajasthan and sale to Central
Govt. who purchases the HDPP woven sacks for
grains through open tenders

the rate of 12.40%.

The promoters have sufficient experience of 15
years in the line of activity
The firm has also started marketing activity for
their products & are having very good market
contacts for the sales of the Finished Goods
The orders worth Rs.2.50 crores is expected to
be finalized by end of August, 2008
Projected financials are in line with the
financials of the some of the unit in similar line of
activity and production level
FINDINGS
SBI loan policy contains various norms for sanction of
different types of loans
These all norms does not apply to each & every case
SBI norms for providing loans are flexible & it may differ
from case to case
After case study, we found that in some cases, loan is
sanctioned due to strong financial parameters
From the case study analysis it was also found that in
some cases, financial performance of the firm was poor,
even though loan was sanctioned due to some other
strong parameters such as the unit has got confirm
order, the unit was an existing profit making unit & letter
of authority was received for direct payment to the bank
from ONGC which is public sector
CONCLUSION
Credit is the core activity of the banks &
important source of their earnings which go to pay
interest to depositors, salaries to employees &
dividend to shareholders
Credit & risk go hand in hand
Banks main function is to lend funds/ provide
finance but it appears that norms are taken as
guidelines not as a decision making
A bankers task is to indentify/assess the risk
factors/parameters & manage/mitigate them on
continuous basis
