CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Money is the lifeblood of any business, playing a crucial role in ensuring smooth operations,
expansion, and overall financial stability. Every business, whether small or large, requires funds to
meet various financial needs, such as purchasing raw materials, maintaining inventory, paying
salaries, expanding production, marketing products, and investing in new projects. These financial
needs can be broadly classified into two categories: short-term requirements and long-term
requirements.
1. Short-term financial requirements refer to the immediate or operational expenses of a
business that need to be covered within a short period, typically less than a year. These
include expenses such as wages, utility bills, rent, and inventory purchases.
2. Long-term financial requirements involve funding for capital investments, infrastructure
development, acquiring fixed assets (such as land, buildings, machinery, and vehicles), and
business expansion, which require large sums of money for a prolonged period, usually
beyond three years.
Since businesses often do not have sufficient internal funds to meet all these financial requirements,
they seek financial assistance from external sources. Among the most common and reliable sources
of external finance are loans and advances provided by financial institutions such as banks, non-
banking financial companies (NBFCs), and government financial schemes.
Understanding Loans and Advances
Loans and advances are both forms of financial assistance provided to businesses, but they serve
different purposes and have distinct characteristics.
1. Loans: A loan is a sum of money borrowed from a financial institution or lender for a
specified purpose, with the obligation to repay the principal amount along with interest over a
predetermined period. Loans are usually granted for a longer duration and can be repaid in
fixed installments or in a lump sum. They are often classified into two main types based on
their repayment period:
o Term Loans: These are loans that must be repaid over an extended period, generally
beyond three years. Term loans are primarily used for capital investments such as
purchasing machinery, setting up new units, or business expansion.
o Demand Loans: These loans are repayable within a shorter duration, typically within
three years, based on the lender's demand for repayment.
2. Advances: Advances, on the other hand, are short-term financial aids provided by banks to
businesses to help them meet their working capital requirements. Unlike loans, advances are
generally meant for immediate operational needs and are to be repaid within a year. These
advances can take various forms, such as overdrafts, cash credits, and bill discounting.
Key Differences Between Loans and Advances
Although loans and advances are both forms of financial support, they
differ in several aspects:
Purpose: Loans are typically taken for long-term investments, whereas advances are meant
for short-term working capital needs.
Duration: Loans have a longer repayment period (more than one year), whereas advances are
usually repaid within a year.
Repayment Structure: Loans can be repaid in installments or lump sum, while advances are
repaid within a short period, often through business transactions.
Security Requirement: Loans generally require collateral or security, while advances may
be granted based on business credibility and financial strength.
Since loans and advances play a crucial role in business financing, it is essential for business owners
to carefully assess their financial needs, repayment capability, and the terms offered by financial
institutions before opting for either. A proper understanding of these financial instruments can help
businesses effectively manage their cash flow, optimize their financial resources, and achieve
sustainable growth.
Meaning of Loans and Advances :-
The term ‘loan’ refers to the amount borrowed by one person from another. The amount
is in the nature of loan and refers to the sum paid to the borrower. Thus From the view
point of borrower, it is ‘borrowing’ and from the view point of bank, it is ‘lending’. Loan
may be regarded as ‘credit’ granted where the money is disbursed and its recovery is
made on a later date. It is a debt for the borrower. While granting loans, credit is given for
a definite purpose and for a predetermined period. Interest is charged on the loan at
agreed rate and intervals of payment. ‘Advance’ on the other hand, isa ‘credit facility’
granted by the bank. Banks grant advances largely for short-term purposes, such as
purchase of goods traded in and meeting other short-term trading liabilities. There is a
sense of debt in loan, whereas an advance is a facility being availed of by the borrower.
However, like loans, advances are also to be repaid. Thus a credit facility- repayable in
installments over a period is termed as loan while a credit facility repayable within one
year may be known as advances.
Definition of Loan:-
The amount lent by the lender to the borrower for a specific purpose like the construction
of the building, capital requirements and purchase of machinery and so on, for a
particularperiod of time is known as Loan. In general, loans are granted by the banks and
financial
institutions. It is an obligation which needs to be repaid back after the expiry of the
stipulated period. The loan carries an interest rate on the debt advanced. Before advancing
loans, the lending institution checks the credit report of the customer, to know about his
credibility,financial position and capacity to pay.
According to Thembi Palane “a loan is a financial transaction in which one party (the
lender) agrees to give another party (the borrower) a certain amount of money with the
total expectation of repayment agreed upon by both parties. Usually there’s a
predetermined time for repaying a loan with conditions attached to it” According to
oxford dictionary “Money that someone borrow from a bank or other financial
Loan Examples:
o Home Loan: Used for purchasing property.
o Car Loan: Taken for buying a vehicle.
o Business Loan: For expansion, machinery, or capital expenditure.
o Education Loan: Covers tuition fees and related expenses.
Advance Examples:
o Overdraft: A facility allowing businesses to withdraw more than their
account balance.
o Cash Credit: A loan facility provided to businesses for operational expenses.
o Bill Discounting: Businesses can get cash in advance by discounting their
invoices before they are due.
4. When to Choose a Loan vs. an Advance?
If you need long-term financial assistance (e.g., buying assets, expanding business)
Choose a Loan.
If you require short-term funds for operational needs (e.g., managing daily
expenses, buying stock) Opt for an Advance.
Loans and advances serve different financial needs. While loans are suitable for long-
term projects, advances help businesses maintain cash flow in the short term.
Understanding their differences allows individuals and companies to make better
financial decisions.

1.4 Introduction to Loans
A loan is a form of debt incurred by an individual
or other entity. The lender— usually a corporation,
financial institution, or government—advances a
sum of money to the borrower. In return, the
borrower agrees to a certain set of terms including
any finance charges, interest, repayment date, and
other conditions.
In some cases, the lender may require
collateral to secure the loan and ensure
repayment. Loans may also take the form of
bonds and certificates of deposit (CDs). It is
also possible to take a loan from a 401(k)
account.
The Loan Process
Here's how the loan process works: When someone needs
money, they apply for a loan from a bank, corporation,
government, or other entity. The borrower may be
required to provide specific details such as the reason for
the loan, their financial history, Social Security number
(SSN), and other information. The lender reviews this
information as well as a person's debt-to-income (DTI)
ratio to determine if the loan can be paid back.
Based on the applicant's creditworthiness, the lender
either denies or approves the application. The lender
must provide a reason should the loan application be
denied. If the application is approved, both parties sign a
contract that outlines the details of the agreement. The
lender advances the proceeds of the loan, after which the
borrower must repay the amount including any additional
charges, such as interest.
The terms of a loan are agreed to by each party before any
money or property changes hands or is disbursed. If the
lender requires collateral, the lender outlines this in the
loan documents. Most loans also have provisions
regarding the maximum amount of interest, in addition to
other covenants, such as the length of time before
repayment is required.
Imagine you want to buy something expensive, like a
house, a car, or start a business, but you don’t have
enough money to pay for it right now. In such a situation,
a bank or a financial company can lend you the money to
help you make the purchase.
This borrowed money is called a loan. You promise to
pay it back over time, usually with some extra amount
called interest (which is the cost of borrowing money).
How Does a Loan Work?
Step 1: You Apply for a Loan
You go to a bank or a financial company and ask them to give you money
for your need (house, car, business, etc.). The lender (bank) will ask you for
some details, such as:
How much money do you need?
Why do you need it?
How will you pay it back?
Do you have a stable income/job?
Do you have anything valuable (like property or gold) that you can give
as security?
Step 2: The Lender Checks Your Information
The bank or lender will check your financial history to see if you are a
trustworthy person who can repay the loan. They look at:
Your credit score (past payment history)
Your salary or income
Your existing debts (if any)
If they are satisfied, they approve your loan. If not, they may reject it or give
you a smaller amount.
Step 3: You Receive the Loan Money
Once approved, the bank transfers the loan amount to your bank account.
You can now use it for your specific purpose.
Step 4: You Repay the Loan in Installments
You don’t have to pay back the full amount immediately. Instead, you pay it
in small parts every month (called EMIs - Equated Monthly Installments).
Each EMI includes:
A part of the original loan amount
A part of the interest (the extra amount the lender charges for giving you the
loan)
Example of a Loan
Let’s say you want to buy a bike that costs ₹1,00,000, but you only have
₹20,000. You take a loan of ₹80,000 from the bank.
The bank tells you:
You must repay the loan in 24 months (2 years)
You will pay ₹3,700 per month as EMI (including interest)
So, every month, you pay ₹3,700 until the full ₹80,000 + interest is paid
back.
Why Are Loans Used?
Loans are advanced for a number of reasons, including major purchases,
investing, renovations, debt consolidation, and business ventures. Loans
also help existing companies expand their operations. Loans allow for
growth in the overall money supply in an economy and open up
competition by lending to new businesses.
The interest and fees from loans are a primary source of revenue for
many banks as well as some retailers through the use of credit facilities
and credit cards.
Components of a Loan
There are several important terms that determine the size of a loan and
how quickly the borrower can pay it back:
Principal: This is the original amount of money that is being borrowed.
Loan Term: The amount of time that the borrower has to repay the loan.
Interest Rate: The rate at which the amount of money owed increases,
usually expressed in terms of an annual percentage rate (APR).
Loan Payments: The amount of money that must be paid every month
or week in order to satisfy the terms of the loan. Based on the
principal, loan term, and interest rate, this can be determined from an
amortization table.
In addition, the lender may also tack on additional fees, such
as an origination fee, servicing fee, or late payment fees. For
larger loans, they may also require collateral, such as real
estate or a vehicle. If the borrower defaults on the loan, these
assets may be seized to pay off the remaining debt.
1.5 Types of Loans
I. Secured loans:-
These are loans that do require collateral, i.e., you have to provide an
asset to the lender as security for the money you are borrowing. That
way, if you are unable to repay the loan, the lender still has some means
to get back their money. The rate of interest of secured loans tends to be
lower as compared to those for loans without collateral.
Types of
secured
loans :-
Home loan
Home loans are a secured mode of finance, that give you the funds to
buy or build the home of your choice. The following are the type of
home loans available in India:
Land purchase loan: Purchase land for
your new home Home construction
loan: Build a new home
Home loan balance transfer: Transfer the balance of your existing home
loan at a lower interest rate
Top up loan: Can be used to renovate an existing home or have the latest interiors
for your
new home Note that while buying a new property/home, the lender
requires you make a down payment of at least 10-20% of the property’s
value. The rest is financed. The loan amount disbursed depends on your
income, its stability and current liabilities among others.
Loan against property (LAP)
Loan against property is one of the most common forms of a secured loan where
you can
pledge any residential, commercial or industrial property for availing the
funds required. The loan amount disbursed is equivalent to a certain
percentage of the property’s value and varies across lenders. While some
lenders may offer an amount equivalent to 50-60% of the
property’s value, others may offer an amount close to 80%. A loan against property
helps you the The borrower agrees to repay the principal amount along with interest
over a predetermined period. Loans can be secured (requiring collateral) or
unsecured (based on creditworthiness).
unlock the dormant value of your asset and can be used to satiate personal life goals
such as higher education of children or marriage. Businesses use a loan against
property for business expansion, R&D and product development among others.
Loans against insurance policies
Yes, you can also avail loans against your insurance policy. However,
note that all insurance policies don’t qualify for this. Only policies, such
as endowment and money-back policies, which have a maturity value can
be used to avail loans. Thus, you can’t avail a loan against a term
insurance plan as it doesn’t have any maturity benefits. Also, loans can’t
be availed
against unit-linked plans as the returns aren’t fixed and depends on the
performance of the market. It’s essential to note that you can opt for a
loan against endowment and money back policies only after they’ve
acquired a surrender value. These policies acquire a surrender

Gold loans
For the longest time, gold has been one of the most favored asset classes. The
organized
Indian gold loan industry is expected to touch Rs.3,101 billion by 2019-
20, according to a KPMG report, thanks to flexible interest rates offered
by financial institutions
A gold loan requires you to pledge gold jeweler or coins as collateral. The loan
amount
sanctioned is a certain percentage of the gold’s value pledged. Gold loans are
generally used for short-term needs and have a short repayment tenor compared to
home loans and loan against property.
How Does a Gold Loan Work?
The process of getting a gold loan is simple and quick. Here’s how it works:
Step 1: You Pledge Your Gold
You take your gold jewelry, coins, or ornaments to a bank or NBFC (Non-Banking
Financial Company) that offers gold loans.
The lender checks the purity and weight of the gold to determine its value.
Step 2: Loan Amount Calculation
The lender calculates the loan amount based on the gold's value.
Banks usually offer 75% of the gold’s market value as a loan (as per RBI guidelines).
Example: If your gold is worth ₹1,00,000, you may get a loan of ₹75,000.
Step 3: Loan Disbursement
Once the paperwork is completed, the loan amount is given to you (cash or bank transfer).
The lender keeps your gold as collateral (security) until the loan is fully repaid.
Step 4: Repayment
You repay the loan in EMIs (Equated Monthly Installments) or as a lump sum before the
loan period ends.
After full repayment, the lender returns your gold.
Loans against mutual funds and shares
An ideal vehicle for long-term wealth creation, mutual funds can also be pledged as
collateral for a loan. You can pledge equity or hybrid funds to the
financial institution for availing a loan. For doing so, you need to write to
your financier and execute a loan
agreement. Your financier then will write to the mutual fund registrar and
a lien on the certain number of units to be pledged is marked. Typically,
you can get 60-70% of the value of units pledged as a loan. Similarly,
with shares, financial institutions create a lien against shares
against which the loan is taken and the loan value is equivalent to a
percentage of the value of the shares.
Loans against fixed deposits
The humble fixed deposit not only offers assured returns but can also
come handy when you need a loan. The amount of loan can vary between
70-90% of the FD’s value and varies across lenders. However, it’s
essential to note that the loan tenor can’t be more than the FD’s tenor. II.
Unsecured loans These are loans that do not require collateral. The
lender lends you the money based on past associations, and your credit
score and history. Thus, you have to have a good credit history to avail
these loans. Unsecured loans usually come at a higher rate of interest due
to the lack of collateral
Type of unsecured Loans :-
Personal loan
Offering an instant flush of liquidity, a personal loan is one of the most popular
types of
unsecured loans. However, since a personal loan is an unsecured mode of
finance, the interest rates are higher compared to secured loans. A good

income ensures you can avail this loan at a competitive rate of interest.

Where:
📌 P = Loan Amount
📌 r = Monthly Interest Rate (Annual Rate / 12)
📌 n = Number of months (Loan Tenure)
✅ Example: If you take a ₹30 lakh loan at 7% interest for 20 years, your EMI will be
₹23,259 per month.
(Use online EMI calculators for quick estimates!)

2.2Terms and conditions of Loan
Agreement
What is a Loan Agreement ?
Few people sail through life without borrowing. With few
exceptions, almost everyone takes a loan to buy a car, finance a
home purchase, pay for a college
education or cover a medical emergency. Loans are nearly
ubiquitous and so are the agreements that guarantee their
repayment.
Loan agreements are binding contracts between two or more
parties to formalize a loan process. There are many types of loan
agreements, ranging from simple promissory notes between
friends and family members to more detailed contracts like
mortgages, auto loans, credit card and short- or long-term payday
advance loans.
Simple loan agreements can be little more than short letters
spelling out how long a borrower has to pay back money and
what interest might be added to the principal.
Others, like mortgages, are elaborate documents that are filed as
public records and allow lenders to repossess the borrower’s
property if the loan isn’t repaid as agreed.
Each type of loan agreement and its conditions for repayment
are governed by both state and federal guidelines designed to
prevent illegal or excessive interest rate on
repayment.
Loan agreements typically include covenants, value of collateral involved,
guarantees, interest rate terms and the duration over which it must
be repaid. Default terms should be clearly detailed to avoid
confusion or potential legal court action. In case of default, terms
of collection of the outstanding debt should clearly specify the
costs involved in collecting the debt. This also applies to parties
using promissory notes as well.
Purpose of a Loan Agreement :-
The main purpose of a loan contract is to define what the parties involved are
agreeing to, what responsibilities each party has and for how long
the agreement will last. A loan agreement should be in
compliance with state and federal regulations,
which will protect both lender and borrower should either side
fail to honor the agreement. Terms of the loan contract and which
state or federal laws govern the
performance obligations required by both parties, will differ
depending upon the loan type.
Most loan contracts define clearly how the proceeds will be used. There is no
distinction made in law as to the type of loan made for a new
home, a car, how to pay off new or old debt, or how binding the
terms are. The signed loan contract is proof
that the borrower and the lender have a commitment that funds
will be used for a specified purpose, how the loan will be paid
back and at what amortization
Other Reasons for Using Loan Agreements:-
Borrowing money is a huge financial commitment, which is why
a formal process is in place to produce positive results on both
sides.
Most of the terms and conditions are standard fare – amount of money
borrowed,
interest charged, repayment plan, collateral, late fees, penalties for
default – but there are other reasons that loan agreements are
useful.
A loan agreement is proof that the money involved was a loan,
not a gift. That could become an issue with the IRS.
Loan agreements are especially useful when borrowing or
loaning to a family member or friend. They prevent arguments
over terms and conditions.
A loan agreement protects both sides if the matter goes to a
court. It allows the court to determine whether the conditions and
terms are being met.
If the loan includes interest, one side may want to include an
amortization table, which spells out how the loan will be paid
off over time and how much interest is involved in each
payment.
Loan agreements can spell out the exact monthly payment due
on a [Link] is safe to say that anytime you borrow or lend money,
a legal loan agreement should be part of the process.
On Demand vs. Fixed Repayment Loans :-
Loans use two sorts of repayment: on demand and fixed payment.
Demand notes are usually used for short-term borrowing and are often used
when
people borrow from friends or family members. Sometimes banks
will offer demand loans to customers with whom they have an
established relationship.
These loans typically don’t require collateral and are for small
amounts.
Their key feature is how they are repaid. Unlike longer term
loans, repayment can be required whenever the lender desires, as
long as sufficient notification is given. The notification
requirement is usually spelled out in the loan agreement. Demand
loans with friends and family member might be a Written
agreement, but it might not be
legally enforceable. Banks demand loans are legally enforceable.
A check overdraft facility is one example of a bank demand loan
– if you don’t have the money in your account to cover a check,
the bank will loan you the money and pay the check, but you are
expected to repay the bank quickly, usually with a penalty fee.
Fixed term loans are commonly used for large purchases and
lenders often demand that the item purchased, perhaps a house or
a car, serve as collateral if the borrower
defaults. Repayment is on a fixed schedule, with terms established
at the time the loan is signed. The loan has with a maturity date
when it must be fully repaid. In some
cases, the loan can be paid off early without penalty. In others,
early repayment comes with a penalty.
Legal Terms to Consider :-
All loan agreements must specify general terms that define the
legal obligations of each party. For instance, the terms regarding
repayment schedule, default or contract breach, interest rate, loan
security, as well as collateral offered must be clearly
outlined. There are some standard legal terms involved in loan
agreements that all sides should be aware of, regardless of
whether the contract is between family and friends or between
lending institutions and customers.
Entire Agreement Clause:
This term defines what the final agreement will be and supersedes any agreements
previously made in negotiations, whether written or oral. In other words,
this is the final say and anything that was said (or written) before, no
longer applies.
Interest Rate Determination :- Many borrowers in their first
experience securing a loan for a new home, automobile or credit card are
unfamiliar with loan interest rates and how they
are determined. The interest rate depends on the type of loan, the
borrower’s credit score and if the loan is secured or unsecured.
In some cases, a lender will request that the loan interest be tied to
material assets like a car title or property deed. State and federal
consumer protection laws set legal limits regarding the amount of interest
a lender can legally set without it being considered an illegal and
excessive usury amount.
If the loan includes interest payments, as most do, the terms will be
spelled out in the loan’s terms and conditions. Interest is either fixed fee
or floating fee.
A fixed fee, or fixed rate, loan establishes an interest rates that remains
unchanged during the repayment of the loans. If you borrow money with
a 4% annual rate, you will pay the lender 4% a year on the balance due
until the loan is paid off. The amount of interest you pay will
decrease over time as the balance is paid down and the principal
payment will increase. If you borrow $200,000 to buy a house, the
monthly payment will remain constant, but the portion of the payment
that goes to interest and principal will change each month as the loan is
balance is reduced. Floating fee interest rates, also called variable rate
loans, carry interest rates that change over time. The amount of interest
based on a benchmark rate, usually a
widely followed index like the LIBOR those changes regularly. Floating fee rates
are adjusted periodically and generally are only used in complex loans like
adjustable-rate home
mortgages.
Contract Length & Amortization :- The length of a loan
contract is determined by a lender’s reliance upon an amortization
schedule. Once the lender and the borrower have
determined the amount of money needed, the lender will use the amortization table
to
calculate what the monthly payment will be by dividing the number of
payments to be made and adding the interest onto the monthly payment.
Unless there are certain loan conditions that penalize the borrower for
early loan payment, it is in the best interest of the borrower to pay back
pre-paid fees and
penalties for doing so. Prepayment penalties are typically found in automobile loans
or in
mortgage subprime loans. They also can occur when borrowers choose to
refinance a home or auto loan.
Pre-payment penalties are applied to protect the lender, who expects a
certain return on his loan over a certain amount of time. For example, if
the borrower repays a 5-year loan in three years, the lender would be out
the interest he expected the last two years of the loan.
Prepayment penalties usually are 2% of the amount due on the loan or
six months of interest payments. It can have a dramatic effect on the cost
of refinancing a loan. Many sub-prime loans include prepayment
penalties, which opponents say target the poor, who usually are the ones
with subprime loans.
On the other side are homes financed through government-backed FHA loans.
Federal law
specifically forbids prepayment penalties on FHA loans. The exception is
if the borrower has amortgage that contains a due-on-sale clause and the
clause has been allowed as part of the mortgage.
Breach or Default If a loan contract is paid off late, the loan is considered
in default. The borrower can be liable for a myriad of potential legal
damages to compensate the lender for any losses suffered. The breached
or defaulted lender can pursue litigation and have a court hold the
borrower liable for legal costs, liquidated damages and even have assets
and
property attached or sold for repayment of thedebt. In addition, a breach
or default of court judgment can be placed on the borrower’s credit
record.
Mandatory Arbitration:- Mandatory arbitration is an increasingly
popular provision in loan agreements that requires parties to resolve
disputes through an arbitrator, rather than the court system.
More than 50% of lending institutions include mandatory arbitration as part of their
loan
contracts because it is supposed to be faster and cheaper than going to
court. Arbitration puts the final decision in the hands of one person, who
likely is more experienced and
sophisticated about the law than six jurors in a courtroom.
In most cases, mandatory arbitration clearly favors the lenders, who
have legal counsel that specialize in this area of law on their side. The
borrower often has no lawyer or inadequate representation because
lawyers are not guaranteed payment in arbitration cases.
The borrower is at an even bigger disadvantage if the arbitration is
binding, meaning there can be no appeal. The rules in the Fair Credit
Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act have no bearing in
arbitration cases, which also favors the lender.
Members of the military are especially vulnerable to loan agreements that
include mandatory arbitration. A solider serving out of the country may
not be able to attend or have competent representation at an arbitrary
hearing and because of that, lose possession of a car or other asset. The
arbitrator’s decision can’t be appealed, so there is no recourse if the
decision goes against the soldier.
Before you sign a loan agreement, read it closely and if it includes a
mandatory arbitration clause, decide whether you are comfortable with
that as a means of settling [Link] and Predatory Protections
Several federal and state consumer protection laws protect consumers
against predatory and usury loan tactics used by lenders.
The Truth In Lending Act, Real Estate Settlement Act and the Home
Owners Protection Act federally protect borrowers against predatory
lenders. Many states enacted companion
consumer predatory and usury protection acts to protect borrowers. Both parties
benefit because lenders make reasonable interest repayment rates and borrowers
receive a much- needed loan.
Several federal and state consumer protection laws protect consumers
against predatory and usury loan tactics used by lenders
Promissory Notes :-
Promissory notes resemble loan agreements but lack complexity. Often,
they are little more than commitment-to-pay letters like ious or simple
payment on demand notes. Usually the borrower Writes a letter
specifying how much money he or she is borrowing and the terms under
which it will be repaid. They are almost always used for small loans
between people who know one another well. Promissory notes are signed
and dated and can be legally binding. Promissory notes can be secured or
unsecured. Secured loans offer the lender collateral is the loan isn’t
repaid, while unsecured loans don’t use collateral. They can contain
terms about installment payments and interest, though theymight not.
Unlike loan agreements, which can contain complex payment terms,
promissory notes are more like paper trails that document that one
person has lent money and that the borrower agrees to repay the
money within a certain amount of time, either in a lump sum or in
installments. It’s used primarily to avoid financial misunderstandings and shouldn’t
be
confused with a loan agreement, which contains an assortment of
legally enforceable terms and remedies.
2.3 INDUSTRY PROFILE &
COMPANY PROFILE NBFC IN INDIA
NBFC - INDUSTRY OVERVIEW :
A Non-Banking Financial Company (NBFC) is a company registered under
the Companies Act, 1956 engaged in the business of loans and advances,
acquisition of shares/stocks/bonds/debentures/securities issued by
Government or local authority or other marketable securities of a like nature,
leasing, hire-purchase, insurancebusiness, chit business but does not include
any institution whose principal business is that of agriculture activity,
industrial activity, purchase or sale of any goods (otherthan securities) or
providing any services and sale/purchase/construction of
immovable property. The NBFC sector is an important part of the Indian
financial sector. They have shown dynamism in delivering innovation and in
assisting financial inclusion.
Nbfcs typically have several advantages over banks due to their focus on
niche segment, expertise in the specific asset classes, and deeper penetration
in the rural and unbanked markets. However, on the flip side, they depend to
a large extent on bank borrowings, leading to high cost of borrowings and
face competition from bankswhich have lower cost of funds.
The growing asset size of the NBFC sector has increased the need for risk
management in the sector due to growing interconnectedness of
nbfcs with other financial sector intermediaries. The Reserve
Bank of India (RBI) has been in the recent past trying to
strengthen the risk management framework in the sector, simplify
the regulations and plug regulatory gaps so as to prevent
regulatory arbitrage between banks and nbfcs. The Reserve Bank
of India released the ‘Revised Regulatory Framework for nbfcs’
on November 10, 2014 which broadly focuses on strengthening
the structural profile of NBFC sector, wherein focus is more on
safeguarding of the depositors money and regulating nbfcs which
have increased their asset-size over time and gained systemic
importance.
Due to subdued economic growth, last two years, have been
challenging period for the nbfcs with moderation in rate of asset
growth, rising delinquencies resulting in higher provisioning thereby
impacting profitability. However, comfortable capitalization levels
and conservative liquidity management, continues to provide comfort
to the credit profile of nbfcs in spite of impact on profitability
system comprises of Ministry of Finance, RBI,
SEBI and other regulatory bodies. The informal financial system consists of
individual money lenders, groups of persons operating as funds or
associations, partnership firms consisting of local brokers, pawn
brokers, and non-bankingfinancial intermediaries such as finance,
investment and chit fund companies (ASSOCHAM ):-
The Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India
Non-banking finance companies (nbfcs) form an integral part of the
Indian financial system. They play an important role in nation
building and financial inclusion by complementing the banking
sector in reaching out credit to the unbanked segments of society,
especially to the micro, small and medium enterprises (msmes),
which form the cradle of entrepreneurship and innovation. Nbfcs’
ground- level understanding of their customers’ profile and their
credit needs gives them an edge, as does their ability to innovate and
customize products as per their clients’ needs. This makes them the
perfect conduit for delivering credit to msmes.
However, nbfcs operate under certain regulatory constraints, which put them at a
disadvantage vis- à-vis banks. While there has been a regulatory
convergence between banks and nbfcs on the assetside, on the liability
side, nbfcs still do not enjoy a level playing field. This needs to be
addressed to help nbfcs realize their full potential and thereby perform
their duties with greater efficiency.
Moreover, with the banking system clearly constrained in terms of
expanding their lending activities, the role of nbfcs becomes even more
important now, especially when the
government hasa strong focus on promoting entrepreneurship so that
India can emerge as a country of job creators instead of being one of job
seekers. Innovation and diversification are the important contributors to
achieve the desired objectives.
IMF (International Monetary Fund) cuts India’s growth rate to 4.8%
citing slowdown in local demand, stress in NBFC sector
8 per cent for the current fiscal year which is expected to rise to 5.8 per
cent in 2020? The IMF attributed the slash in growth rate to the
slowdown in demand in the domestic market and stress in the nonbank
financial sector.
“India’s growth is estimated at 4.8 percent in 2019, projected to
improve to 5.8 percent in 2020 and 6.5 percent in 2021,” said IMF in a
statement.
The 5.8 per cent estimate in 2020 is down by 0.9 per cent from the previous
estimate.
The steep cut in India’s growth rate has affected the IMF’s projection
on the world economy, which is now expected to expand 2.9 per cent in
2019 as compared with the previous forecast at 3.0 per cent.
In its World Economic Outlook Report, IMF stated that the growth markdown
largely
reflects a downward revision to India’s projection, where domestic
demand has slowed more sharply than expected amid stress in nonbank
financial sector and a decline in credit growth.
According to IMF, the global economy is expected to accelerate to 3.3
per cent in 2020 from 2.9 per cent in 2019. Further, it is expected to rise
to 3.4 per cent in 2021.
However, the IMF has in its latest estimates trimmed the global growth
rate by 0.1 per cent each for 2019 and 2020 and by 0.2 percentage for
2021.
Earlier in December, IMF chief economist Gita Gopinath had estimated
a likely cutdown in India’s growth estimate during the January review.
8 per cent for the current fiscal year which is expected to rise to 5.8 per
cent in 2020? The IMF attributed the slash in growth rate to the
slowdown in demand in the domestic market and stress in the nonbank
financial sector.
In its World Economic Outlook Report, IMF stated that the growth markdown
largely
reflects a downward revision to India’s projection, where domestic
demand has slowed more sharply than expected amid stress in nonbank
financial sector and a decline in credit growth.
United Nations had also cut down India’s growth estimate for
Financial Year 2020 to 5 per cent from 5.7 per cent. World Bank had also
cut its estimate to 5 per cent from its earlier
prediction of 6 per cent
NBFC crisis :-
The continuing liquidity crunch facing non- banking financial companies
is likely to result in creasing bad loans risks for banks both from these
shadow banks as well as from companies
relying on such lenders for funding, warns a report.
The spillover of stress among nbfcs to borrowers, and ultimately to
banks, will hinder improvements in banks' asset quality, profitability and
capital, which is credit negative
Owing to liquidity crisis, nbfcs are forced to reduce lending, leading to
funding constraints for borrowers relying on non-bank lenders.
This increases the risk of loan losses for nbfcs, and as a result, they will
continue to have difficulty in obtaining funding.
Also, as NBFC customers' financials weaken, banks will reduce lending
to them, which in turn will further worsen their funding stress and can
lead to more bad loans from these
companies for banks, it warned.
A type of NBFC credit to controlling shareholders, or promoters, of
large listed companies across various industries is also emerging as a
source of asset risk for banks.
Corporate promoters use their company shares as collateral to borrow,
mostly from nbfcs or mutual funds, typically for the purpose of making
investments, including in external
businesses
"The risk for banks is that promoters with weak governance can use
company resources to repay their debt, causing financial damage to their
businesses, which as a consequence, can default on their own loans from
banks, the report said.
Refinancing can be difficult for promoters of companies as investments they make
using
Loans are often illiquid, a problem made worse by tighter availability of credit
from nbfcs.
The report further said the non-bank lenders collectively have a large
market share in retail and SME loans, a segment that has grown rapidly
in recent years and now is susceptible to asset quality deterioration as the
economy slows.
"A curtailing of lending by nbfcs will add to risks from retail loans for
banks by reducing the availability of credit that individuals can use for
refinancing and by contributing to the slowdown," the agency said.
2.4 SWOT ANALYSIS OF NBFCS
Strengths:-
High on service aspect
Strong last-mile approach
Focus on recovery
Easy and fast appraisal and disbursements
Regional linkages
Able to generate higher yield on assets
Attained critical mass in terms of size
Own employees versus dsas
Weaknesses:-
Weak in urban markets
Weak credit history of most nbfcs
Largely restricted to the regional markets (say South India)
Weaker risk management and technology systems
Too much of diversification from core business
Higher regulatory restrictions
Opportunities:-
Augmentation of capital and leveraging for growth
Large untapped market, both rural and urban and also geographically
Demographic changes and under-penetration
New opportunities in credit card, personal finance, home equity
and distribution of mutual fund schemes
Tie-up with global financial sector giants
Blurring gap between banks in terms of costs of funds
Securitization, to liberate funds to fuel asset growth
Threats:-
Weak financial health of many of the nbfcs
High cost of funds
Asset quality deterioration may not only wipe out profits but also net worth
Entry of foreign players in post-2009 scenario
Growing retail thrust within banks
CRISIL NBFC REPORT :-
"However, increases in banks' real estate npls will be marginal as their direct
exposures to
real estate companies remain small, growing more slowly than NBFC
loans to the sector," it said
After witnessing healthy growth over the past few years, non-bank credit
growth slowed down in the second half of fiscal 2019 due to the tight
liquidity conditions that engulfed the sector. Consequently, Non Bank
Financial Companies (nbfcs) which were gaining market
share from banks across major asset classes in the past could not do so in fiscal
2019.
Going forward, nbfcs will need to recalibrate their strategies in order to deal with
the
changing business dynamics. How would this impact the credit growth of
the sector? When is the liquidity situation going to improve? Can nbfcs
achieve pre-2018 growth in the medium term or will the growth remain
anemic?
What are the key factors that will drive their growth? Will their earnings
growth trajectory be lower? What will be the capital that they will need
over the next 1-2 years? What will
separate the winners from the losers? Where are the opportunities for growth?

Different Department
Organization structure
Organization Hierarchy:
A key issue in accomplishing the goals identified in the planning
process is structuring the work of organization. Organizations are group
of people, with ideas and resources working toward common goals. The
purpose of the organizing function is to make the best use of the
organizations resources to achieve organizational goals. Organizational
Structure is the formal decisions making framework by which job tasks
are divided, grouped and
coordinated. Formalization is an important aspect of structure. It is the
extent to which the unit of organization is explicitly defined and its
policies, procedures and goals are clearly
stated. It is the official organizational structure conceived and built by top
management. The formal organization can be seen and represented in
chart form. An organization chart displays the organizational structure
and shows job titles, lines of authority and relationship between
departments. Organizational Structure allows the expressed allocation of
responsibilities for different functions and processes to different entities.
Ordinary description of such entities is as branch site, department, work
group and single group of people.

Strategy Drivers:-
When we thought of our strategy to achieve the Big Goal, we kept in mind an
important
element: what strength of our past do we want to carry into the future? Of
all our options, one thought resonated across, reflecting in all our
outcomes over the course of our existence –
Sustainability. It is the legacy that our history has created. This is the
outcome of over half a century of work of our parent – theBajaj Group.
Delivered through each business that the Group has ventured into.
Anything that we do has to pass through this critical filter. Each of the
five drivers of our strategy build on this core.
Focus on Existing Customers
More products per customer cannot be achieved by more customers but more
satisfied
customers. More satisfied our customers, more likely they’ll partner with
us for their next big pursuit. More likely,they’ll recommend their family
and friends to us. The more our
customers recommend us, the less we need to worry on getting new
customers. The less we worry on getting new customers the more we’ll
focus on existing customers.

form of surveys, interviews etc. Methods and Methodology are not
interchangeable with each other. They are vary two different concepts.
Methodology explains how a research is to be carried out, how to find
information and how it is to be interpreted. Generally, methodology
means branch of knowledge which forms the base of any research
3.1OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY:
The objectives are designed to have a particular direction to the study
like what aspect of the topic is going to be studied. A topic can be
studied from various parameter, the objectives
designed for a project gives an idea that in what manner the topic is
studied, what is the flow of project, what are the variables selected for
the project, etc.

private life insurance company.
Understand the brand image of bajaj allianz in the market of life insurance product
To understand the level of security that the customer have owning an

3.1. HYPOTHESIS OF THE STUDY:
Hypothesis is referred as the presumptions made by an individual to
study the research project. These presumptions are made in a way to
satisfy the objectives framed for the
project. Framing of hypothesis is an important part of the research as in
this step the research problem or the problem statement is designed on
which the entire research is based.
The hypothesis or the research problem of the study is designed in such manner to
find out
the relationship between the variables, i.e. does the effect on has any
impact on the other. We can also say that the following hypothesis will
let us know how closely they are correlated with each other. In order to

Hypothesis:-
H0: Nature of satisfaction level for customers is dependent to service

H1: Nature of satisfaction level for customers is independent to service

3.3 Scope of Insurance
The opening up of the insurance sector to private companies has made
available more product and world class service to Indian customer. To quote
Mr. n. Rangachari former chairman of IRDA “all these years the
nationalized insurance has been bleeding us” “the future for
liberalized insurance sector looks bright with a monitoring agency
committed to promoting the interest of the customers”.
According to business world, “the sheer size and potential of Indian insurance
market has
attracted many new players. Even going by govt estimates there are about
312 million middle class customers with financial resources to purchase
insurance products, only 2.5 % of this is covered by any form of
insurance Sales agents will remain the prime distribution channel, and
according to some estimated insurance could finally end up creating over
20,000 jobs for sales representatives alone. The IRDA has already
accredited 14 insurance training schools
spread over a few major cities of our country, which would churn out
about some 1500 students annually.
the analysis of the satisfaction of insurance products and insurance
companies of Bajaj Allianz customer only located in
Visakhapatnam.
So, the scope of the insurance sector is wide and open where there
a lot of opportunities for the sector to grow in the next couple of
years. More and more private companies with international
experiences are entering into the market with knowing the scope
that is available. Moreover, each and every individual have started
realizing the importance of life insurance in their life as the life is
considered to be really unexpected in the world we live today. I
have limited the scope of my study
We can a sample of respondents from Bajaj Allianz only.
Moreover, we can get the segmented data
3.4 TYPE OF STUDY:
There are various types of study for doing a research, to name some descriptive study,
exploratory study, historical study, empirical study, qualitative
study, quantitative study, etc. For the purpose of this research,
the research has used Descriptive study. Descriptive study is a
method usually used to describe the characteristics of the
population that is being studied.
The descriptive study is mostly used to get the answer for the question „what rather
than
answer ‟ for „why The reason for selecting Descriptive research is
bec ‟ ause it gives special focus on specific type of questions,
methods, and outcomes of the data. The best part about Descriptive
study is that it can study the qualitative and quantitative aspects i.e.
there is no need to study the qualitative or quantitative aspects
separately. Therefore, it can involve the tables and graphs and
numbers or the physical qualities in the study. Descriptive study is
usually used by the anthropologists, psychologists and social
scientists
This research is based on descriptive study because
this project studies the qualitative and quantitative
aspects the attendance of commerce students of
Mumbai University. However, this is not only
descriptive research but also pure research; we can
say that this research is a mixture of descriptive and
pure research. As the project work is completely first
hand, descriptive study is used only to understand the
topic. However, my research does involve review of
literature which is the base of descriptive study. The
significance level used to test the credibility of my
research used is 5% as descriptive study.
3.5 Sample Size:
Sample size determination is the process of choosing the number of
respondents
The sample design used to represent the survey data isin the
form of Pie-Charts and Bar-Charts based on the respondents of
the survey. Probability sampling was used to collect responses.
3.7 Data collection method:
Data for the study was collected from the primary as well as secondary
sources.
Primary Source Of Data Collection:
Primary source of data collection consisted of survey method.
The survey was collected through a Structured Questionnaire.
The questionnaire was prepared
keeping in mind the objectives of the study and factors that were
to be considered for the study. Questionnaire was prepared in
such a manner that it could be easily
understood by the respondents. The questionnaire being
structured was in a single format to save time of the respondents.
Most of the questions were close ended, so that the respondents
could easily select one given alternative while answering the
questionnaire. The questionnaire mainly consisted of two parts
i.e. Name of the
Respondent and Benefits social media has done in a positive way
in their lives and in the world according to them.
Secondary Source Of Data Collection:
The secondary source of data collection is assessed to gain information and
knowledge about our research problem that may be previously
discussed by some other researcher. The secondary is referred to
know what has already been discussed and what more scope can
be there for research. The secondary data is taken from
selective websites and from online publication of some researchers. The
secondary
data was useful for the study of Review of Literature. We could
study various aspects of different researchers which gave us an
idea about the factors being previously
discussed and also the conclusions drawn from them. It also gave
us an insight on what more could be studied to solve the research
problem.
observation to include in a statistical sample. It is an
importantfeature of a research study because on the basis of
sample size data is collected and interpreted to give accurate and
appropriate results.
The correct and appropriate sample size is said to give more
accurate results. For example, in a census, data is collected from
the entire population. Therefore, the sample size is equal to
population of the country. Keeping in mind the rate of
nonresponse and non-availability of respondents, the sample
size was taken between 25100 working professionals. It was
Random sampling method that was considered to decide the
sample size.
Due to the sample size being small there may be slight
inaccuracy of data that can be rectified by furtherstudy.
3.8. RESEARCH TOOLS USED:
Research tools are anything which helps in the collection of information for
a
particular research such as observation forms, interview
schedules, questionnaires, and the interview guides. Hence, for
testing the information collected research or statistical tools are
used. There various types of research tools used to test the data in
different ways. These statistical tools are usually applied on the
tabulated data. These tools can be of two types: parametric tests
and nonparametric tests. For applying
parametric test, the information should be distributed in the
tabular format whereas for applying non-parametric test, no such
format is required. It can be applied on any type of data of even
and uneven distribution. The parametric tests are usually applied
on the metric data only whereas the non-parametric test is
applied on the non-metric data. For the purpose of this research,
only parametric tests are used i.e. only metric data is analyzed.
There are various parametric tests: t-test; f-test; z-test; annova
chisquare; descriptive statistics which includes mean, median,
mode, standard deviation and variance; correlation, regression,
and cross tabulation. Here the
researcher has used t-test, f-test, annova and descriptive statistics.
The following are used because my data collected is a scaled data
and for testing of hypothesis for population mean and to find out
the variance in the population or the data collected.
T-test is type of tools for hypothesis testing. It is usually used to find out the
significant difference between the means of two groups. F-test is
used when two models is to be compared in order to identify the
model that fits the population from which the data is sampled.
Annova also known as „Analysis of Variance is a
statistical too ‟ l used to test the differences between two or more
means. Descriptive Statistics is a tool used to measure various
measures of central tendencies and
Measures of variability
3.9 Limitations of the study
The study suffers from a few limitations, which will have to be
kept in mind for the findings to be fairly interpreted
The results should be interpreted with the bleow limitations in perspective:
• The recommendations are subjected to time and cost constraint
• Sampling has its own limitations, which would have resulted in minor
errors
• There can be errors due to bias of respondents
• The size of the sampling was not big enough to arrive at strong conclusion
• Following limitation were faced during the study:
1. While designing the questionnaire it was kept in mind to
gather more and more information from each target person.
For the neither present nor descriptive
question could have served the purpose. Therefore, the
questionnaire contained in the open ended questions
2. The study was conducted in Bajaj Allianz in India city,
which has 127 to 170 insurance care consultants only so
that accuracy of data so collected could be absurd
covered by circulation of questionnaire.
3. The accuracy of indication given by the respondents may not be
consider
adequate as whether the language used in the questionnaire is
understood by the respondent cannot be taken for granted.
4. The study is based on the information gathered
from the insurance care consultant might have
shown partiality towards their insurance policies.
5. Since the survey was limited to 50 insurance care
consultants it is rather difficult to give a precise conclusion
but I have tried to the best of my capability to give
the conclusion on a comprehensive manner.
Data Analysis And Interpretation
Rate the service of Bajaj finance LTD
CHAPTER 4 FINDINGS
While paying through credit card, that much amount is blocked from the
card. As there is monthly limit in each card, so it is wise to go for Bajaj
Finserv Lending.
Bajaj Finserv Lending provided loan on consumer durable product to
the customer as per the surrogates.
Flexible EMI scheme in many products are available. Bajaj
Finserv Lending provides many schemes such as 12/4, 10/2, 18/6,
24/6 etc. Customer can choose any EMI Scheme option according to
their paying capability.
As per the requirement of finance company for address proof would be required
current
place proof, and for ID proof required the valid name of person it shows
with the help of case studies.
Consumer lending is increasing year by year but it is a small % increase in the
loans.
The SME (small and medium enterprise) Loans are decreased year
by year. The nearly 20% decrease year by year when compared to
previous years
The rural lending was increased year by year but the increasing is
around 2%onnly when compared to the total loans.
The commercial Lending drastically increased after the 2017 FY. The
sudden increase of 20% in the 2017 and it was decreased 2%.
Based on the customer review awareness on the no cost EMI policy is around 60%.
The behavior of the Bajaj Finance Employees is good only the 3
members out of 42 are given bad rating
48% of people know about No cost EMI through Friends.
The 13 people out of 42 are interested to take new loans who are not taken loans
before The most of the people are feel the charge of loans in Bajaj Finserv is
medium, the 3 people feel that it is high and the 5 people low
Based on the 2 policies the Bajaj Finserv will issue loans to the
customers based on their financial capability.
Only 90% loan only issued by the Bajaj Finserv to the customers, the
remaining 10% should bear by the customer.
If the CIBIL score is low the Bajaj Finance will not issue loan.
The address proof and the financial strength proof (credit card, bank
statement, job proof, and the previous loan records, CIBIL Score card ) is
mandatory for every loan issued by the company
CHAPTER 5
SUGGESTIONS
The Bajaj Finserv has to increase the advertisements on the NO COST EMI policy
The SME lending is decreased year by year the company has to look into the SME
loans.
The banks are the competetors for bajaj Finance Limited, they are
acquiring more SME loans year by year result in decreasing in the Bajaj
Finserv SME Loan Lending.
The interest rates and the loan processing charges has to decrease in
Bajaj Finance Limited, this will help in more customers to get attracted to
words the company.
The processing time taking is more when comapred to the competetors so
the Bajaj Finance Limited has to use technology to improve their loan
approval systems.
The commercial lending is increase suddenly it is good the recovery is little bit
risky.
The Rural Lending is increased year by year but the increase is less, the
company has to look into this and increse more lending.
The some of the new customres are interested to take loans in
the company the representatives has to take intiative to complete the
deal.
The no of documents required for the loan approval is more, it has to minimized.
The Company is taking long time to approve the loan, so my
suggestion is to use the technology for the quick loan approvals.
Based on the customer reviews the Baja Finserv should open more number
of branches, the people are not able to access the branches.
The online system of loan approval and the online and the receiving the
applications should increase
The Bajaj Finserv is not mostly concentrating on the digital media for
the advertisements, I strongly recommend to use the digital media for the
advertisements.
The company has to increase the issue of credit cards.
The credit cards issuing by the company are not valid for some type of
transactions like to add money to wallets, this has to be resolved.
The Bajaj Finserv not able to meet the competetion with the banks in
issuing loans, and as well as the recovery.
I recommend to issue more secured loans to the customers instead of un secured
CONCLUSION 6
The study has been conducted on STUDY ON HOME
LOAN PROVIDED BY BAJAJ FINANCE
According to the objectives through the study As we know
the population is been increasing day by day the more and
more people will not have employment opportunity due to
this, the interested people will come for the
loans to start their own business, but the people who are in
middle class people they have the basic needs due to less
income the middle class people will come to take loans to
fulfill their needs, the needs in the sense like house
construction and for vehicle. The company also provides the
loans for the staff who are working in the bank for less rate of
interest. The loans like, festival advance, staff vehicle loans,
staff house building etc….
If an customer wants the loan the company
representatives will help the customers to have huge
amount for less rate of interest. If the customer’s
performance / transaction are good
