CHAPTER -1 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1.

ABSTRACT Home is a dream of a person that shows the quantity of efforts, sacrifices

luxuries and above all gathering funds little by little to afford oneâ€&#x;s dream. Home is one of the things that everyone one wants to own. Home is a shelter to person where he rests and feels comfortable. Many banks providing home loans, whether commercial banks or financial institutions, to the people who want to have a home. Many banks are providing home loans at cheapest rate to attract consumers towards them. The more customer friendly attitude of these banks, currently offer to consumers cheapest loan over homes. In view of acute housing shortage in the country, and keeping in mind the social – economic role of commercial banks in the present times, the RBI advised banks to encourage the flow of credit for housing finance. With the RBI reducing bank rate, the home loan market rates nose-diving by 50 basis points. The ICICI Bank and Standard chartered bank has become the first player in this sector to announce a housing loan for a 20 years period. No doubt it will enhance the end cost of the home but it will facilitate people to plan their house over longer duration now, it has been made easy for a person to buy that dream house which he dreamt of long ago.

A home loan is a loan taken for buying or constructing a home or to make improvements to a residential property. You can get a loan from banks and registered housing finance companies.

The Home loan sector in India is the pivotal role player in the growth of the real estate scenario in India. With tax incentives given to the housing finance sector in the annual budget of 2001, transactions related to buying and selling of residential properties increased.

7

considerably and was much higher as compared to previous years. Since the new class of buyers are relatively younger set of customers who are more aware about legal documentation and approvals, buyers are now more 'end-users' rather than investors; the property market in India undergoes transformation to align itself with global standards with an increased emphasis on quality & cost control and documentation methods. In the current economy of India, the real estate sector has the maximum propensity to generate income and demand for materials, equipment and services. It can be said that housing finance companies were formed for co-existing with buyer's requirements of housing loans for investing in properties. Home loans are made available by financial institutions to both Indian and NRI customers at floating and fixed rate of interest and also at attractive EMI options.

The realty boom in India has given a new dimension to the finance sector in India both in Home Loans and Home Insurance segments. This has not only given a competitive edge to the finance companies to provide attractive options to customers but has also contributed to the increased investments in the real estate sector. This has resulted in 13 new institutions foraying into the housing finance business in the last three years.

LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY

Some of the limitations of the project that were encountered during the study are:  In case of interaction with the representative of a particular bank it happens many a time that the representative cannot disclose all the data because of certain reasons like banks privacy policy etc. thus getting clear picture about the service provided is not possible.  Due to paucity of time, only important factors have been analyzed and discussed.  To collect the data from various banks was quite difficult due to non-cooperation of some banks. This proved to be major limitation of the study.  To access such a large number of customers was difficult because of non-cooperative attitude of respondents.  Lack of data was also the other limitation of the study as some of banks do not have proper data on topic.  There was limitation of time to conduct such a big survey in limited available time.  Generally the data on the websites of the banks are not fully disclosed i.e. other than the charges mentioned on the website there are many hidden charges which increases the cost like service charge etc  Ignorance and reluctant attitude of customers was also a major limitation in this study.

I have tried a lot to overcome the above mentioned limitations as far as possible.

2.2.

LATEST TRENDS IN THE INDUSTRY

2.2.1. GDP ratio at 7% provides room for further growth The ratio of mortgage to GDP in India has remained low at 7%, as against 12% for china, 41% for Hong-Kong and more than 80%foor developed countries, thus providing for further growth in the housing sector during the coming years. While the housing finance companies (HFC), which are regulated by National housing Board (a wholly-owned subsidiary of RBI) were pre – dominantly catering to mortgage needs.

Over the past few years, banks too have started in increasing their exposure to real estate, especially Home loans. This is evident from the fact that the market share of HFCs has decreased from 65% if FYO1 to present 55%. Banks, on other hand have been constantly increasing their market share, there by intensifying competition.

2.2.2. Revival in real estate prices in the initial period of the year and low interest rate The correction in the real-estate prices in the initial period of the year and low interest rate schemes announced by the banks/HFCs have resulted in significant surge in volumes especially in the “Affordable housing segment�.

2.2.3. Sluggish credit demand; banks increase their exposure to housing sector.

Due to the sluggish credit demand (up 10.1% yoy for the fortnight ended November 20, 2009), banks have been diverting their funds towards housing loans. According to the figures revealed by RBI, the non-food credit growth during April-august 2009 has remained muted at 0.8%. On the other hand, lending to the home loan segment during this period increased 2.8%. Since February 2009, banks have been aggressively pricing interest rates on home loans (including both floating and fixed rates). Subsidies have also been provided to the form of reduced processing fees and minimal/no penalty on early re-payments. SBIs s home loan book has increased by rs117bn or ar2.5% CQGR in the last four quarters. With credit demand to revive in coming period, banks are likely to divert their funds to high yielding assets thereby reducing their exposure to the housing sector.

18

2.2.4. HFCs continue to do business as usual HFCs foresee the increasing share of banks exposure towards home loan segment as a temporary phenomenon. In our view, banks are likely to face asset-liability miss-match as these loans have a long gestation period. Further, these loans are a zero -sum game in the initial period due to lower interest rate offered. HFCs, on the other hand typically raise money that match their requirements and thus minimize their ALM mismatch

2.2.5. Differential interest rate may not remain for long While the discounted / special scheme rates are offered to new home loans, existing customers continue to ply higher rate of interest. The Indian Bank‟s Association has planned to introduce a uniform rate for all borrowers.

2.2.6. India's mortgage market scores over West  In India, the borrower contributes a higher share of his own funds (24-46% of house value) at the time of purchasing a house.  The loan installments too eat away a smaller portion of the borrowers‟ income.  The installment to income ratio-ranged between 34% and 40%, in India is lower than some countries in the West.  This is based on an analysis by rating agency Fitch of the home loan asset pool that it rates. 

This is because borrowers‟ income has kept pace with rise in property prices.

 The extent of second houses purchased is also limited and most borrowers stick to their repurchase schedules.  The figures computed by Fitch based on the asset pool that it rates implies that on an average, the borrower funds up to 30% of the house value through his own capital  This among other things increases the borrower‟s willingness to repay.  Some bankers say the black money component is also high in the Indian realty market, resulting in higher borrower equity.  Another notable factor is that delinquencies have remained range-bound in the last 33 months, according to residential mortgage index launched by the ratings firm.  The index which tracks home loans that have not repaid for over 90 days has moved in a narrow range between 0.90% and 1.07%.

CHAPTER -3 3. COMPANY PROFILE 3.1. Introduction: State Bank of India (SBI) has history of more than 200 years of existence. SBI is the largest commercial bank in India and accounts for approximately 18% of the total Indian banking business and the group account for 25% of the total Indian banking business. The central bank, Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is the largest shareholder in the bank with 59.7% stake followed by overseas investors including GDRs with 19.78% shareholding as on September 06. RBIs stake in the bank is likely to be transferred to the Government of India (GOI).

SBI has the largest distribution network in India spread across every nook and corner of India. As on September 06, the bank has 14,061 branches which include 4,755 branches of its associated banks. The bank also has the largest network of 5,624 ATMs. Since the last 5 years the bank has showed continued growth in its core business. The total asset size of the bank reported a CAGR of 9.4% during the period FY01 –FY06 and stood at Rs. 4,938.69 bn as of September 2006. In HIFY07, the bank reported net interest income (NII) of Rs. 182.14bn, representing a growth of 2.74% over HIFY06 while the bank reported a net profit of Rs.19.8bn, registering a decline of 18.67% during the same period. Credit off take of the bank has been lower than the State Bank of India (SBI) is India's largest commercial bank. SBI has a vast domestic network of over 9000 branches (approximately 14% of all bank branches) and commands one-fifth of deposits and loans of all scheduled commercial banks in India.

The origins of State Bank of India date back to 1806 when the Bank of Calcutta (later called the Bank of Bengal) was established. In 1921, the Bank of Bengal and two other Presidency banks (Bank of Madras and Bank of Bombay) were amalgamated to form the Imperial Bank of India. In 1955, the controlling interest in the Imperial Bank of India was acquired by the Reserve Bank of India and the State Bank of India (SBI) came into existence

20

by an act of Parliament as successor to the Imperial Bank of India.

Today, State Bank of India (SBI) has spread its arms around the world and has a network of branches spanning all time zones. SBI's International Banking Group delivers the full range of cross-border finance solutions through its four wings - the Domestic division, the Foreign Offices division, the Foreign Department and the International Services division.

If one measures by the number of branch offices and employees, SBI is the largest bank in the world. Established in 1806 as Bank of Calcutta, it is the oldest commercial bank in the Indian subcontinent. SBI provides various domestic, international and NRI products and services, through its vast network in India and overseas. With an asset base of $126 billion and its reach, it is a regional banking behemoth. The government nationalized the bank in 1955, with the Reserve Bank of India taking a 60% ownership stake.

In recent years the bank has focused on three priorities: 1), reducing its huge staff through Golden handshake schemes known as the Voluntary Retirement Scheme, which saw many of its best and brightest defects to the private sector, 2), computerizing its operations and 3), changing the attitude of its employees (through an ambitious programme aptly named 'Parivartan' which means change) as a large number of employees are very rude to customers.

21

3.2 Roots: The State Bank of India traces its roots to the first decade of 19th century, when the Bank of Calcutta, later renamed the Bank of Bengal, was established on 2 June 1806. The government amalgamated Bank of Bengal and two other Presidency banks, namely, the Bank of Bombay (incorporated on 15 April 1840) and the Bank of Madras on 27 January 1921, and named the reorganized banking entity the Imperial Bank of India. All these Presidency banks had been incorporated as joint stock companies, and were the result of the royal charters. The Imperial Bank of India continued as a joint stock company. Until the establishment of a central bank in India the Imperial Bank and its early predecessors served as India's central bank, at least in terms of issuing the currency. The State Bank of India Act 1955, enacted by the Parliament of India, authorized the Reserve Bank of India, which is the central banking organization of India, to acquire a controlling interest in the Imperial Bank of India, which was renamed the State Bank of India on 30 April 1955.

3.3 Timeline: June 2, 1806: The Bank of Calcutta established.

January 2, 1809: This became the Bank of Bengal.

April 15, 1840: Bank of Bombay established.

July 1, 1843: Bank of Madras established.

1861: Paper Currency Act passed.

January 27, 1921: all three banks amalgamated to form Imperial Bank of India.

July 1, 1955: State Bank of India formed; becomes the first Indian bank to be nationalized.

1959: State Bank of India (Subsidiary Banks) Act passed, enabling the State Bank of India to take over eight former State-associated banks as its subsidiaries.

1980s When Bank of Cochin in Kerala faced a financial crisis, the government merged it with State Bank of India.

22

June 29, 2007: The Government of India today acquired the entire Reserve Bank of India (RBI) shareholding in State Bank of India (SBI), consisting of over 314 million equity shares at a total amount of over 355 billion rupees.

3.4 Associate banks: There are seven other associate banks that fall under SBI. They all use the "State Bank of" name followed by the regional headquarters' name. These were originally banks belonging to princely states before the government nationalized them in 1959. In tune with the first Five Year Plan, emphasizing the development of rural India, the government integrated these banks with the State Bank of India to expand its rural outreach. The State Bank group refers to the seven associates and the parent bank. All the banks use the same logo of a blue keyhole. Currently, the group is merging all the associate banks into SBI, which will create a "mega bank", and one hopes, streamline operations and unlock value.

The bank has the largest ATM network in the country having more than 5600 ATMs [1]. The State Bank of India has had steady growth over its history, though the Harshad Mehta scam in 1992 marred its image. In recent years, the bank has sought to expand its overseas operations by buying foreign banks. It is the only Indian bank to feature in the top 100 world banks in the Fortune Global 500 rating and various other rankings. According to the Forbes 2000 listing it tops all Indian companies.



Judgment regarding repayment capacity on the basis of income:

To understand how the income of a customer is considered to arrive at his repayment capacity, it is first necessary to classify customers into salaried and self employed individuals.

46

a) The income of the salaried individual is considered in the following manner: Gross monthly income as it appears on the salary slip Less:- Any non regular variable income appearing on the salary slip (including overtime, etc.)

Add: - 50 per cent of the average variable income of the last six months.

Add: - Any fixed cash/voucher payments for which proof can be submitted.

Add: - 50 per cent of the average variable cash/voucher payments with proof like traveling reimbursement etc.

Add: - HRA receivable if not being received already in the salary slip.

The above income calculated for the calculation of eligibility using IIR and FOIR norms. For calculation of FOIR, the installments of all the loans that one has availed of currently for which repayment is being made is taken into account as well. The lower of the two eligibilities is considered as the maximum repayment capacity.

E.g.: Determination of loan amount eligibility of a salaried individual:

Net Monthly Income i.e. Take home salary

85,000/-

Expected rental from proposed property

15,000/-

Add any other monthly regular income

-

Total Net Monthly Income

1, 00,000/-

Take 55% of this for total loan EMI provision i.e.

55,000/-

Subtract all existing loan EMIâ€&#x;s being paid now: (other loans)

15,000/ -

Net EMI available for the present loan

40,000/-

Now, for repayment period 15 yrs @ 9 % the EMI/ lakh is

1,014/-

To arrive at your eligibility Divide 40,000/ by 1014

39.44 lacs

Table 11: Determination of Repayment capacity

i.e. 39.44 lacs or 80% of project cost whichever is lower.

47

b) To consider income of Self-employed individuals we further classify them into Professionals and non-professionals. • Professionals: - Comprising doctors, chartered accountants, lawyers, architects, etc.

For calculation of eligibility of professional's income is computed by most HFIs using the gross professional receipts instead of the Net profit as in the case of self-employed nonprofessionals. • Non-Professionals: - The income of non-professionals is normally calculated by HFIs in the following manner: Average of the net profits of last 2 years as it appears in the profit and loss account (Returns need to be filed for the same. They should be filed regularly before the due date is over).

Less: - Any income, which is unusual and non-recurring in nature like sale of some asset, etc which affects profits substantially, Add: - Any expense that is unusual and non-recurring in nature like repairs and maintenance that has not been capitalized and effect profit adversely.

Add: - 50 per cent of the average depreciation of the last two years. The above income is calculated for the calculation of eligibility using IIR and FOIR norms.

For calculation of FOIR the installments of all the loans that one has availed of currently for which repayment is being made is taken into account and the eligibility is worked out. The lower of the two eligibilities is considered as the maximum repayment capacity.

48

To enhance loan eligibility you have option to add: 1)

Income of your spouse/ your son/ daughter living with you, provided they have a steady income and his/ her salary account is maintained with SBI.

2)

Expected rent accruals (less taxes, cess, etc.) if the house/ flat being purchased are proposed to be rented out.

3)

Depreciation, subject to some conditions.

4)

Regular income from all sources.

However, the actual calculation model for EMI could be as follows: From various resources, it is found that: 1)

2)

The EMI break up, for SBI is: 

68% - Principal Component and



32% - Interest Component

The way EMI is calculated can be broadly categorized under two heads: 

Flat rate system and



Reducing balance system.

The flat rate system: The rate of interest on the loan amount is calculated over the full duration of the loan, the principal and the interest is divided over the number of installments and the value arrived is your EMI. Let us understand this better:

Table 13: EMI calculation in the flat rate system

A flat rate loan is the most expensive as in this case the interest is calculated on the entire loan amount and no principal deduction is taken into account. Thus the effective rate o f interest works out to be much higher.

50

Reducing balance system: The interest is charged on the outstanding balance of the loan, which goes on reducing. Hence the cost of the same loan amount on an annual reducing balance method works out to 29% and 35% on a monthly reducing balance method. Again in case of reducing system, there are three types:

Table 14: EMI calculation in Reduced balanced system

Daily reducing balance method (Used by SBI) Here, there is immediate reduction in principal thereby reducing the interest calculated on it. If you have taken a loan of Rs.1, 00,000/- at 21% interest for 3 years and you pay Rs.3, 760/- on Jan 10, the lender will consider total outstanding principal as Rs.96, 240/- from Jan 11. The interest will be calculated on Rs.1,00,000/- from Jan 1 to Jan 10 and from Jan 11, interest will be calculated on Rs.96,240/-. With a lower outstanding principal, the total interest paid out reduces and so does the EMI. Monthly reducing balance method Here, the principal component is deducted at the end of every month and then the interest is calculated on this new outstanding reduced principal. The above table gives the cash outflow on a loan of Rs.1, 00,000/- at 21% interest for 3 years, when interest is calculated by monthly reducing balance method.

51

Annual reducing balance method Here the principal component of EMI though reduced every month, is summated annually. Therefore, the interest is calculated on the original loan amount for the entire year. At the end of the year, the accumulated principal component is deducted from the original loan amount and the interest for the next year is on this reduced loan amount. If you have taken a loan of Rs.1,00,000/- at 21% interest for 3 years, the EMI will be Rs.4,018/-.

Which EMI plan to choose?

Payment of EMIs in advance or in arrears?

Paying the EMI at the beginning of the month (EMI in advance) means that you lock your money for the month; while paying in arrears, (i.e. at the end of the month) gives you an extra month before the payout. The effective rate of interest on the loan also goes up when you pay the EMI at the beginning of the month. Hence if two schemes offer the same EMI, choose the one, which allows payment in arrears.

Advance EMI payment In advance EMI schemes a certain number of EMIs are collected from the borrower in advance. The number of EMIs that have to be paid out in advance varies with the interest charged on the loan. The more you pay in advance the lesser should be the interest charges.

Also in 100% financed loans, some EMIs have to be paid upfront as advance.

This effectively reduces the loan amount and in real terms the financier has not given you 100% finance but charges interest on the entire cost of the asset.

52

Deposit linked plan Here, the financier offers a lower rate of interest, provided the borrower invests 20% to 25% of the asset cost as a fixed deposit with the financier. The interest on this deposit is usually lower than the interest charged on the loan. Here again you must consider the cost of parking your funds in the deposit as the returns on it may not weigh favorably with the low interest charged on the loan.

In the end, the thumb rule of EMI to remember: EMI is lowest, when interest is calculated on a daily reducing basis. The reason why EMI varies for the same loan amount, tenure and interest rate is the difference in the compounding frequency of interest rates.

We can remember that one liner joke - “Why sharks never take lenders?” The answer is “Professional courtesy”.

Pre-EMI: In case of part of disbursement of the loan, monthly interest is payable only on the disbursement amount. This interest is payable monthly till the final disbursement is made, after the EMIs would commence.

5.16.

INSURANCE COVER Compulsory insurance of property. Optional life cover from SBI Life & free

accident insurance cover for borrower available. The house/flat to be insured against the risk of fire/riots/earthquake/lighting/floods etc. in the joint names of the borrower and the bank for the actual project cost after netting off the cost of land, stamp duty an registration charges.

People seeking home loan often encounter such worries like what if anything happens to them in that case what would happen to the home loan? Naturally, their main concern is that should something happen to them their folks would have to encounter the problem of facing the impact of repaying the loan debt. Home loan insurance is completely different from home insurance.

This type of insurance covers the amount of home loan you owe to the bank.

This doesn't include the amount you have already paid but the amount still to be paid and evidently your family members will not face the problem of paying the amount being owed to the bank but the insurance provider will bear the brunt of the same.

The insurance companies are not very impending about how much amount is to be paid as part of the insurance premium as the premium amount varies depending on the case.

The premium amount broadly relies on conditions like - age of the person availing the loan (the younger the person, the lower the premium amount); loan amount (the lesser the loan amount, the lower the premium); period of the loan (the more the loan repayment period, more is the premium); another important factor is the health of the loan taker (the premium amount would be low in case of good health of the individual). SBI offers mortgage life insurance policy to the SBI home loan applicants thereby consolidating the insurance premium along with the EMIs. 61

The State Bank of India offers a free personal accident insurance cover to their clients availing home loan so that the client's family doesn't have to face any problem if he/she meets an accident that proves to be fatal.

5.17.

VALUATION POLICIES

The existing valuation policy was reviewed, and ECCB approved the following valuation and re valuation policy w.e.f. 01.04.08 for individual home loans (IHLS):

(1) Asset Valuation Policy for IHLS: Purpose Of Home Loan

Valuation Policy Valuation of land plus project cost i.e.stae-wise estimated expenditure obtained from the empanelled architect / engineer irrespective of loan amount. Disbursement to be made according to the stage of construction.

Construction of new dwelling unit

Purchase of plot for constructions of Property valued at cost price as per the dwelling unit from regional agreement of sale/lease. govt.housing development authorities/boards/ Table 20: valuation policies

62

(2) Asset Revaluation Policy for IHLs:  Loans above rs.1 crore are given up to an LTV ratio of 75% only, and as such will not attract the higher CRW (Credit Ratio Weight).  Loans of Rs 1 crore and below were given up to a LTV of 85 %( now reduced to 80%), which attract higher CRW of 100%.  However, for a regular loan, a part of the principal gets repaid, and over a period of about 2.5 years from commencement of repayment, the LTV ratio comes down to 75%.  Therefore,higher CRW would be applicable only during this period.  There could also be appreciation in value of the property during this initial repayment period of 2.5 years, which could bring down the LTV ratio below 75%.  To have the benefit of lower CRW, the appreciation through a proper revaluation of the property.  The revaluation is to be carried in such cases by the Asst/Dy.manager (advances)/appraisal officer at the branch/RACPC. The process need not be as detailed as n the case of a fresh loan sanction.  In case of all home loans with out standings above Rs 1 crore that are standard assets, the underlying properties should be revalued once after the expiry of 3years by engaging an empanelled architect / engineer / value. The cost of such valuation will be borne by borrower.  The first revaluation, in terms of this policy is due in January 2009 for loans (standard assets having an LTV ratio of more than 75%) sanctioned during last 3 years. (A format for valuation is enclosed.)  Concessionary capital risk weight (CRW) on home loans is available to banks under Basel 2 frame work, provided the assets are valued/revalued in accordance with a collateral valuation policy approved by banks board. Risk weights on home loans based on loan to value ratio (LTV) as per the Basel 2 final guide lines issued by RBI are as under.

PROMOTION AND DISTRIBUTION OF THE PRODUCTS PROMOTION:  State Bank of India, has come up with a non-conventional method to promote

its home loan business.  SBI promotes home loan segment at its „Home Fair Melas’ at each circle level.  SBI also use to enter into an agreement with the known builders to promote its home loan segment.  The bank is looking forward to develop special processing channels so as to provide quick services to home loan customers.  There would be no processing fees on loans, adding that the home loans approved at the fair would bear 0.25 per cent less interest than the nominal rate from the start of fourth year of repayment.  Around 24 property dealers and builders were present at the fair.  Several kinds of staff are involved in these Fairs, who include: ♀ Marketing Associates ♀ Field Officers ♀ Associated Builders and ♀ The staff from respective Retail Asset Central Processing Cells (RACPC).  The staff do undertake several initiatives with the prospective customers at these Fairs itself like:  Enquiries  Guidance  Instructions  Requirement Specifications  Application forms distribution  Application Approvals and  Customer Services (b) DISTRIBUTION: State Bank of India supplies and sells its home loan products through its over 11,440 branches nation-wide and associated RACPCs. 65

6.3.

PROCESS UNDERTAKEN

6.3.1.

APPLICATION SUBMISSION

 The home loan application form of SBI is rather lengthy compared to the forms at other private sector lenders.

 Completely filled in Form along with the necessary documents.  Need to submit the documents from builder.  In my case, the project had APF no in SBI (basically already approved by SBI); so not much documentation was required.

 Otherwise they would make a surge report, which can consume some time. I guess they are quite strict about it.

6.3.2. 

PRE-SANCTION PROCESS

The Field Officers hold Personal Discussion with the prospect customer regarding Interest Rate, Eligibility, EMI and all the terms and conditions



The prospect customer’s options and acceptance are ascertained and recorded.



Necessary documents are collected from the customer.



Pre-Inspection Sheet is maintained along with the documents to record inspection by the Bank‟s staff (or) outsourced agency.



Bank's Field Investigation for address proof/Employment etc.



All the documents are sent to Retail Assets Central Processing Cell (RACPC) for credit appraisal based on the customer‟s financial capacities.



All the terms are conditions including Loan amount, interest rate, tenure, EMI etc are determined.



The RACPC would submit its credit appraisal report on the customer to the branch.

66

 Legal Opinion: 

Empanelled Lawyer(s) does submit the Title Deed verification and the search report for 30 years in respect of properties of the customer.



The legal clearances/ opinion of the flat/property which you are buying / staying /constructing have to be obtained from an advocate from Bank panel.



Submission of legal documents & legal check.



The search report reveals encumbrance on the property based on which the grant of loan can be avoided and the prospect borrower may be asked to rectify it.  Valuation check:



The Engineer‟s valuation of the property and estimate for the construction to be obtained with bank panel engineer.



In case of takeover loans, two panel engineer valuation is required and the least value between them should be more than the takeover amount.

PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN :  Applications form to be complete in all respects.  Market information about the potential borrower should be gathered.  Pre-sanction survey should be conducted wherever required.  The authenticity of salary slip, form 16 return, and proof of identification, address and income etc. should be cross checked.  Income from all sources is to be considered, wherever applicable, when the sanctioning authority is satisfied about the quantum and uninterrupted flow thereof during the tenure of the loan.

6.3.3.

SANCTION STAGE 67



The branch manager would consider the credit appraisal report of RACPC and will take a decision whether to sanction or not the loan to the customer.



The decision is informed to the prospect customer the decision so taken via Field Officer.



If the decision is “sanctioned”, the Field Officer would issue Offer letter to the prospect.

6.3.4.

POST-SANCTION PROCESS

 Registration of Property documents  Signing of Agreements and submitting post-dated cheques  SBI insists on all the margin money contributions to have been made to the seller and the money receipts to be handed over to them prior to the loan disbursement.  The customer needs to submit the cash amount for various stamps, mortgage fee etc.  They would take 12 cheques of SBI a/c for security.  You can link your SBI savings a/c to have standing instruction to deduct EMI.

Normally, almost all home purchase transactions will entail payment of an advance to the seller and on the day of registration, the remaining contribution from the buyer and the loan amount from the bank are exchanged with the property documents. Not with SBI. And once the registration is done, the loan applicant needs to get the latest Encumberance Certificate (EC) from the Registrar‟s Office and submit it to SBI. Subsequent to this process, SBI will create an equitable mortgage on the property in favour of the bank as collateral. This entails a fee of Rs 7000 (I understand that this is a percentage of the registered value of the property) to the loan applicant. Only after all this is done, will the process be complete. I never saw this equitable mortgage fee being mentioned anywhere in the high decibel advertisements from SBI.

68

6.3.5. 

DISBURSEMENT

The disbursement is made in phases correlating to the actual progress made in the construction.



The proper end-use of funds is ensured by visits to the sites.

6.3.9.

NON-PERFORMAING ASSET FORMATION

When a loan or an advance does become an NPA: The main business of a bank is through loans and advances section the bank accept deposits from the public and certain amount they keep it as reserve balance and the rest of it they lend it to the needed customers who require it in the form of loans and advances. The customer who deposits the money they get interest and the person who takes the loan pays interest and the difference between is the profit of the bank.

70

Suppose the customer who took loan could not pay back the loan amount or the installment money which consist of the interest amount and the principal amount continuously for some specific period of time they are then converted to probable NPA and then comes the role of recovery team which put their maximum effort to get back the amount back which they have given as a loan or advances and at the end if they fail to get back the money then finally the amount is converted as Non Performing Assets.  If the installment is overdue or pending for more then 90 days then a bank can convert the loan amount to probable NPA and  If it could not be recovered by the recovery management team then it is converted into NPA.  An asset becomes non-performing when it ceases to generate income for the Bank.

As from 31st March 2006, a non-performing Asset (NPA) is an advance Where: (i) Interest and/or installment of principal remain „overdue‟ for a period of more than 90 days in respect of a Term Loan, (ii) The account remains „out of order‟ for a period of more than 90 days, in respect of an Overdraft/Cash Credit (OD/CC), (iii) The bill remains „overdue‟ for a period of more than 90 days in the case of bills purchased and discounted, (iv) Any amount to be received remains „overdue‟ for a period of more than 90 days in respect of other accounts. (v) A loan granted for short duration crops is treated as NPA, if the installment of principal or interest thereon remains overdue for two crop seasons and a loan granted for long duration crops is treated as NPA, if installment of principal or interest thereon remains overdue for one crop season. vi) An account would be classified as NPA only if the interest charged during any quarter is not serviced fully within 90 days from the end of the quarter.

71

6.3.10. RECOVERY MECHANISM The following debt collection practices will be applied to all debts (rates and sundry debtors) over $200 that is not in dispute which have been outstanding for 90 days:  First reminder letter will be forwarded, requesting payment within 14 days or to contact Council to enter into an arrangement.  Where no response is received, second reminder letter will be forwarded requesting payment within 14 days or to contact Council to enter into an arrangement.  Where no response has been received a letter of demand for payment within 7 days will be forwarded. The letter will state that failure to make payment in full or to enter into an arrangement will result in the commencement of legal action.  Where no response has been received, outstanding debt will be forwarded to Council‟s debt collection agent.

 Various Recovery Procedures State Bank of India adopts various recovery procedures to recover the debt from its defaulters.

The various recovery procedures are mentioned below:  Reasons For Default : There are various reasons for default like mismanagement, diversification of fund, short fall in investment, will fall default etc. So a credit manager should take various factors into account before lending a loan.  Demand Notice: When a defaulter does not repays loan a demand notice is issued to him that he has to repay his loan with a stipulate time period.

72

ď † Legal Notice: When a defaulter does not respond to the demand notice a direct notice is issued to him that if he does not repay the loan action would be taken against him legally and the court notice is issued against him. ď † Transfer To NPA Account: When a defaulter does not respond to respond to any legal notice or he becomes bankrupt the Whole account is transferred to NPA account.

Interpretation:  More than half of the existing customers are sanctioned loan amount not exceeding Rs. 5 lacs.  The second majority of the customers are sanctioned loan amount above Rs.5 lacs to Rs. 10 lacs.  The low repayment capacity of the customers in the region could be the main reason for the sanction of smaller quantities of loan.  This implies that there was a demand for the lower weight products like SBI HIFIVE LOANS in the region.

CHAPTER -8 8. RECOMMENDATIONS On the basis of the collected data and the analysis along with detailed discussion made in conclusion of this report, some suggestions can be made to the bank which will be helpful to them in improving their services operational and financial performance.

These suggestions have been discussed as follows:  Using Information Technology and Electronic Data Interchange at various stages of lending process would definitely give an edge to the bank in fighting competition and arrive at a more realistic lending decision. E.g.: 

Online availability and Submission of Applications.



Use of Central Mortgage Registry (proposed in the Budget-2010 to be set up) for Title/Deed verification, which will ensure that no two borrowers in the country will be able to raise institutional loans against the same asset. This would help the bank in reducing NPAs.



Use of credit appraisal reports from CIBIL or Credit Information Companies (CIC) to avoid frauds.



Online Processing for various inspections and verifications etc.



Online Disbursals and Repayments.

 The Bank should make sufficient provisioning for bad loans and in this regard, the bank should strictly, abide by the guidelines of RBI.  To increase their customers, the bank should provide specialized services in this sector. These services can be such as proper guidance to the customer regarding the processing of loans, especially for the customers who are illiterate.  To satisfy their customers and for good dealings in future, the bank should make prompt disbursement of loan amount to the customers so that they can buy or construct their dream home as early as possible.

90

 The Bank should use easy procedure, or say, less lengthy procedure for the sanctioning of loan to the customer. There should be less number of legal formalities, in case this exists, then, these should be completed in less time. This will be helpful in attracting more customers.  Although the interest rates on specific norms, yet customers seek uniform interest rate giving equal justice to both the existing as well as new customers.  The bank should improve their overall services to increase the number of customers for home loans. They should recruit professionals to provide such services and to satisfy the customers.  Although SBI Bank is a market leader in 'home loans' sector but they should innovate their services, viewing the- increasing competitions from other banks such as HDFC.  The Bank should drop its tease rates as early as possible as their customers face problems in future paying high installment due to their financial problem.  As the banks provide loan according to the repaying capacity of the customer and his/her eligibility. Due to which, some customers are not able to get amount of loan needed by them. So, the banks should soften their norms regarding the loan amount.  The Banks should try to provide proper knowledge regarding their home loan schemes, even to people who don't know about such schemes and their benefits especially in rural areas. So they should provide knowledge to the ignorant customers, especially in rural areas and backward urban area.  So, above are the main suggestions provided to the banks. By considering these suggestions, the banks can strengthen their customer base in home loans sector.  They should improve their services and reduce legal proceedings and should be friendly to their customers.  The bank needs to take serious and sincere steps in reducing the processing times by taking certain measures like using Information Technology to process the documents.

CONCLUSION  The ratio of mortgage to GDP in India has remained low at 7%, as against 12% for china, 41% for Hong-Kong and more than 80%foor developed countries, thus providing for further growth in the housing sector during the coming years. Hence, the banks shall have more opportunities to tap the market.

 Banks have been constantly increasing their market share, there by intensifying competition from other banks as well as Housing Finance Companies.

 While the discounted / special scheme rates are offered to new home loans, existing customers continue to ply higher rate of interest. The Indian Bank’s Association has planned to introduce a uniform rate for all borrowers. As being a Largest Lender in the segment SBI needs to carry the same spirit and the move is in the right direction is certainly expected from all the banks. We need to watch how banks / HFCs adjust their lending portfolios to this effect in future.

 Last, but not the least, you may be the ‘King’ in the Market, but, the Indian customer is your ‘Boss’ by whom, finally, your decision has to be moulded.
