Public sector banks have grown at a faster pace over last 5 years All SCBs
Total advances of SCBs grew at a CAGR of 24.9 per cent, from Rs 11,508 billion in
2004-05 to Rs 34,971 billion in 2009-10.
However, growth in advances for SCBs declined, similar to last year, when the year-
on-year (y-o-y) growth in advances dropped from 21.1 per cent in 2008-09 to 16.5 per
cent in 2009-10.
Credit growth in 2009-10 was low due to improved access of corporates to non-bank
domestic sources of funds and tightening of credit by banks to retail sector due to
asset quality related concerns.
Working capital loans grew at a CAGR of 23 per cent to Rs 14,887 billion in 2009-10
from Rs 5,289 billion in 2004-05.
On a y-o-y basis, working capital loan growth declined to 15.6 per cent in 2009-10
from 23.7 per cent in 2008-09.

Priority sector advances
Priority sectors have been an integral part of bank credit delivery in India.
The sector received a boost from RBI's initiative in recent years, which has increased
the credit flow into the sector. As per the revised guidelines, the priority sectors now
comprise agriculture, SSI, education and housing. Targets and sub-targets are now
linked to the adjusted net bank credit (ANBC) or credit equivalent amount of offbalance sheet exposure (CEOBSE).
Also, the sector received fresh impetus in the union budget 2011-12, where the
government has proposed to enhance the housing loan limit under the priority sector
from Rs 2 million to Rs 2.5 million.
Loans up to Rs 1.5 million availed for financing homes up to 2.5 million will now
recieve an interest subvention of 1 per cent.
This will attract higher credit flow to the sector with lower interest rates for the
borrowers, and will help banks to meet its lending targets.

Over the last one year (i.e. between 2008-09 and 2009-10), there has been growth in
priority sector credit from domestic commercial banks (public and private) and
foreign banks.
However, as compared to domestic banks, foreign banks growth in priority sector
lending declined for the second consecutive year (2009-10) leading to increasing share
of domestic banks in total priority sector advances (from 94 per cent in 2008-09 to 95
per cent in 2009-10).

Note:
With effect from April 30, 2007, the targets and sub-targets under priority sector
lending have been linked to ANBC [Net bank credit (NBC) plus investments made by
banks in non-SLR bonds held in HTM category] or credit equivalent amount of off-
balance sheet exposures (OBE), whichever is higher, as on March 31 of the previous
year.
The outstanding FCNR (B) and NRNR deposits balances will no longer be deducted
for computation of ANBC for priority sector lending purposes. Investments made by
banks in the recapitalisation bonds floated by the Government of India will not be
taken into account for the purpose.

Foreign banks
Note:Existing investments (as on April 30, 2007) made by banks in non-SLR bonds held in
the HTM category will not be taken into account for calculation of ANBC, up to March
31, 2010.
However, fresh investments by banks in non-SLR bonds held in the HTM category
will be taken into account for the purpose.
Deposits placed by banks with NABARD/SIDBI, as the case may be, in lieu of non-
achievement of priority sector lending targets/sub-targets, though shown under
Schedule 8 'Investments' in the balance sheet, will not be treated as investment in non-
SLR bonds held under HTM category.For the purpose of calculation of credit equivalent of off-balance sheet exposures,
banks can use the current exposure method. Inter-bank exposures will not be taken
into account for priority sector lending targets/sub-targets.

OSCBs recorded the highest CAGR of 22.4 per cent in total deposits between 2003-04
and 2008-09, mainly due to the new private sector banks, which are expanding their
operations aggressively.
The total deposits grew from Rs 2,686 billion in 2003-04 to reach Rs 4,285 billion in
2005-06 and Rs 7,364 billion in 2008-09.
Low-cost deposits constituted 32.7 per cent of total deposits of OSCBs. OSCBs do not
have a wide network of branches, which is essential for garnering low-cost deposit
volumes.
Moreover, the technology-driven customised products introduced by the new privatesector banks allow customers to switch between savings and term deposits.
The group's term deposits grew at a drastically lower rate of 9.2 per cent as against

Within low-cost deposits, demand deposits have a higher share of 67.8 per cent, as
foreign banks generally prefer to cater to corporate clients who maintain current
account deposits, and also because they have sound cash management systems (CMS).
This explains the significant rise in current account deposits since 2006-07.
The savings deposits of foreign banks grew at a CAGR of 18.0 per cent from a lower
deposit base of Rs 126 billion in 2003-04 to Rs 288 billion in 2008-09.
Term deposits increased at a CAGR of 22.2 per cent from Rs 458 billion in 2003-04

Foreign banks generally cater to high net worth individuals (HNIs) and NRI deposits.
Besides, only very few banks, such as HSBC Bank, Standard Chartered Bank, Citibank
and ABN AMRO Bank, are involved in retail banking.
Many banks had hived off their retail business division and begun concentrating on
institutional business.
But, of late, foreign banks (those active in the retail business space) are also, with the
aid of technology, prompting customers to maintain low-costdeposits with them.
Moreover, a few foreign banks have started expanding their branch network to
increase the number of savings deposits.

Investments
Lower credit demand led to higher investments in 2009
Investments by banks fall into two broad categories:
Statutory liquidity ratio (SLR) investments (comprising government and other
approved securities eligible for being reckoned for maintaining the SLR) Almost four-
fifths of banks' investments fall under the SLR category.
Non-SLR investments (comprising commercial paper, shares, bonds and debentures
issued by the corporate sector).
Growth in investments by banks had decelerated marginally to 23.1 per cent in 2008-
09 from 23.7 per cent in 2007-08.However, the share of SLR securities in net demand and time liabilities (NDTL)
increased to 28.1at the end of March2009, as prevailing uncertainties encouraged
banks to park their funds in low-risk and low-return instruments.
-
7/29/2019 Analysis of Banking Industry.pdf
58/268
Investments in government and other approved securities
All SCBs
As per the Banking Regulation (BR) Act, 1949, banks have to invest a prescribed
minimum of their NDTL as liquid assets in government and other approved
securities.
The ratio of liquid assets to NDTL is known as SLR. As part of the financial sector
reforms undertaken in the nineties, the SLR requirement for banks had been gradually
reduced to 25 per cent by October 1997 from the peak of 38.5 per cent in February
1992.
However, despite this reduction, banks maintained average SLR investments of 37.3
per cent of NDTL from 1998-99 to 2002-03.
Such investments reached an all-time high of 42.7 per cent of NDTL in April 2004.

7/29/2019 Analysis of Banking Industry.pdf
59/268
Investments in government and other approved securities
All SCBs
Lower demand for credit owing to the slowdown in the industrial sector, which was
undergoing restructuring, forced banks to park their funds in government securities.
In the declining interest rate scenario, such investments became particularly attractive
for banks due to their high yields.
Incidentally, the period of low demand for credit corresponded with the period when
banks were making efforts to raise capital levels and reduce NPA levels.
Banks became slightly risk averse due to the application of capital adequacy norms,
which required them to maintain 8 per cent of their riskweighted assets as capitalfrom March 31, 1996, and the pressure to bring down their NPA levels.
Consequently, investments in government and other approved securities, which
attracted zero-risk weights, became the preferred mode of investments for banks.

Statutory liquidity ratio - Excluding gold
Although the banking sector held excess SLR investments at Rs 1,698.46 billion
(above the prescribed minimum requirement of 24.0 per cent) at end-March 2009,
several banks were operating their SLR portfolio very close to the prescribed
minimum level. Excess SLR investments of SCBs increased to Rs 2,887.54 billion as on
September 25, 2009.
As a result, the share of SLR investments in NDTL increased to 30.4 per cent as of
September 2009 from 28 per cent as of March 2009.

SBI and associates
In 2008-09, SBI and associates' investments in SLR securities increased to 28.29 per
cent.
This signalled a reversal in the group's downward trend (its SLR investments had
decreased to 25.2 per cent in 2007-08 from 26.5 per cent in 2006-07).
Thus, the growth clearly indicates a significant increase in the group's investments in
government securities in 2008-09.
Nationalised banks
Continuing the downward trend, SLR investments by nationalised banks declined
from 25.0 per cent in 2007-08 to 24.84 per cent in 2008-09.
This group had the least exposure to SLR investments amongst all bank groups.

Foreign banks
Foreign banks have been constantly increasing their exposure to SLR securities, and
in 2008-09, their exposure was the highest amongst all bank groups.
The SLR ratio for foreign banks stood at 35.19 per cent in 2008-09 as against 33.3 per

Non-SLR investments
Non-SLR investments of SCBs comprise commercial paper, investments in shares,
bonds/debentures issued by public as well as private sector companies, units of UTI
and other mutual funds.
Growth of banks' investments in non-SLR securities stood at 10.5 per cent in 2008-09
as compared with the increase of 14.3 per cent during the previous year.
The total flow of funds from SCBs to the commercial sector comprising credit and
non-SLR investments, increased by 17.5 per cent (Rs 4,210.9 billion) in 2008-09 as
compared with the rise of 22.6 per cent (Rs 4,448.1 billion) in the previous year.
The composition of non-SLR investments of banks has changed in recent years,
notably since 2004-05.

Non-SLR investments
The share of banks' investment in shares, commercial papers and units of mutual
funds has been growing, while the share of investment in bonds/ debentures has been
declining, partly reflecting the changing risk appetite of commercial banks in India.
This trend also continued in 2008-09; the only exception was investment in shares,
which dipped due to the subdued conditions in the Indian stock markets.

Nonperforming assets
Gross NPA for all SCBs flat at 2.3 per cent in 2008-09
As per the asset classification norms prescribed by the RBI, loan assets can be
classified into four categories standard assets, sub-standard assets, doubtful assets
and loss assets.
The central bank has prescribed appropriate provisioning requirements for each of
these asset categories.
Of the aforementioned categories, sub-standard assets, doubtful assets and loss assets
together make up nonperforming assets (NPAs). NPA is a loan or an advance where
interest and/or instalment of principal remain overdue for a period of more than 90
days.

Nonperforming assets
Gross NPA for all SCBs flat at 2.3 per cent in 2008-09
Historically, the Indian banking industry has been plagued with high levels of NPAs,
which can be attributed to factors such as archaic policies, industrial inefficiency, lack
of adequate legal recourse to lenders and wilful defaulters.
However, from 2004-05 to 2007-08, the cyclical uptrend in the economy along with
the concomitant recovery in the business climate improved the abilities of the debtors
to service loans, thereby improving banks' asset quality.
Therefore, despite the sharp rise in credit growth in recent years, the proportional
levels of gross NPAs (to gross advances) as well as the absolute levels of gross NPAs
have declined significantly.
-
7/29/2019 Analysis of Banking Industry.pdf
70/268
The following factors have contributed to the striking improvement in the asset
quality of Indian banks:
1. Banks have gradually improved their risk management practices and introduced
more rigorous systems and scoring models for identifying credit risks.
2. A favourable macroeconomic environment in recent years has also meant that many
entities and units of traditionally risky industries are now performing better.
3. Diversification of credit base with increased focus on retail loans, which generally
have low delinquency rates, has also contributed to the more favourable credit risk
profile.
-
7/29/2019 Analysis of Banking Industry.pdf
71/268
The following factors have contributed to the striking improvement in the asset
quality of Indian banks:4. The RBI and the Central government have initiated several institutional measures to
contain the level of NPAs. These include debt recovery tribunals (DRTs), Lok Adalats
(people's courts), asset reconstruction companies (ARCs) and corporate debt
restructuring (CDR) mechanism. Settlement advisory committees have also been
formed at the regional and head office levels of commercial banks.In particular, banks can also issue notices under the Securitisation and Reconstruction
of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest (SARFAESI) Act, 2002 for
enforcement of security interest without the intervention of courts, which has
provided more negotiating power to the banks for resolving bad debts.
Thus, banks have several options to contain their NPAs.These factors have helped banks to recover a large amount of NPAs during the year.
Banks were specifically advised to ensure that recoveries of NPAs exceed write-offs
while bringing down bad debts.

ALL SCBs
Improvement in the asset quality of banks continued during 2008-09.
Indian banks recovered a higher amount of NPAs in 2008-09 as compared to the
previous year.
Though the total amount recovered and written-off in 2008-09 (Rs 388.28 billion) was
higher as compared to that in 2007-08 (Rs 282.83 billion), it was lower than the fresh
addition of NPAs (Rs 523.82 billion) during the year.
As a result, the gross NPAs of SCBs increased across bank groups.

Banks have recourse to various channels for dealing with bad loans; of these, the
SARFAESI Act and the Debt Recovery Tribunals (DRTs) have been the most effective
in terms of amount recovered.
The amount recovered as percentage of amount involved was the highest under the
DRTs, followed by SARFAESI Act.
The recovery rate (percentage of recovery to demand) of direct agricultural advances
of public sector banks declined to 75.4 per cent for the year ended June 2008 from 79.7
per cent a year ago.

The Reserve Bank has so far issued Certificate of Registration (CoR) to 12
Securitisation Companies/Reconstruction Companies (SCs/RCs), of which 11 have
commenced their operations.
As at end-June 2009, the book value of total amount of assets acquired by SCs/RCs
registered with the Reserve Bank was Rs 515.42 billion, clocking an increase of 24.5
per cent during the year (July 2008 to June 2009).
While security receipts subscribed to by banks/FIs amounted to Rs 95.70 billion,
security receipts redeemed amounted to Rs 27.92 billion.

Movements in provisions for NPAs
Provisioning made during 2008-09 was higher than the write-back of excess
provisioning during the year for all bank groups.
Despite this, net NPAs increased due to the rise in gross NPAs. The outstanding
provisions to gross NPA ratio declined in case of all bank groups, except new private
sector banks and foreign banks.
The gross NPAs to gross advances ratio for SCBs remained constant at 2.3 per cent.
The gross NPA to gross advances ratio of public sector banks declined, but that of
private and foreign banks increased.
The net NPA ratio (net NPAs as percentage of net advances) increased marginally incase of SCBs.
As of end-March 2009, the net NPAs to net advances ratio of all public sector banks
was less than 2 er cent.

Movements in provisions for NPAs
The distribution of this ratio in case of other bank groups was also skewed, with only
10 banks in the 'above 2 per cent and below 5 per cent' category, and only one bank in
the 'above 5 per cent and below 10 per cent category'.
In sharp contrast to the distribution of the ratio as at end-March 2005, no bank had a
net NPA to net advances ratio of more than 10 per cent.
This suggests overall improvement in the financial health of Indian banks in recent
years.
The share of NPAs in the 'doubtful' and 'loss' categories remained more or less static,
while the share of 'sub-standard category witnessed some variations.
As per the asset classification norms, a sub-standard asset is one that has been anNPA for up to 12 months.
Thus, the above-mentioned increase in the share of sub-standard category is
indicative of the deterioration of the assets in the last one-year.

Gross NPAs as a percentage of gross advances of the SBI group declined from 6.98
per cent in 2003-04 to 2.50 per cent in 2008-09 because the write-offs/recoveries in
the last few years were higher than the additions to gross NPAs, indicating an
improvement in the NPA management system.
Between 2003-04 and 2008-09, the ratio of net NPAs to net advances declined from
2.70 per cent to 1.50 per cent.
During the same period, the NPA provision cover for the group as a whole dropped
from 56.48 per cent to 40.76 per cent.
The share of SBI Group in gross advances of all SCBs declined from 29.97 per cent
in 2003-04 to 24.60 per cent in 2008-09, and the share in gross NPAs increased from
25.34 per cent in 2003-04 to about 26.67 per cent in 2008-09.

The share of SBI Group in net advances of all SCBs declined from 28.93 per cent in
2003-04 to 24.60 per cent in 2008-09, and the share in net NPAs increased from
24.24 per cent in 2003-04 to about 34.39 per cent in 2008-09.
Thus, the ratio of share of net NPAs to net advances of the SBI Group to that of all

The proportion of gross NPAs to gross advances declined from 8.21 per cent in 2003-
04 to 1.80 per cent in 2008-09, on account of recovery and write-offs of sticky assets.
Between 2003-04 and 2008-09, the gross NPAs decreased from Rs 355 billion to Rs 254
billion.
The provisioning cover fell slightly from 58.00 per cent in 2003-04 to 57.09 per cent in
2008-09, which caused the net NPA ratio to drop from 3.14 per cent in 2003-04 to 0.70
per cent in 2008-09.
The share of nationalised banks in total gross advances of all scheduled commercial
banks came down from 53.75 per cent in 2003-04 to 47.2 per cent in 2008-09.

declined from 56.34 per cent in 2003-04 to 36.81 per cent in 2008-09.
The proportion of net NPAs of nationalised banks to net NPAs of all SCBs
decreased drastically from 52.38 per cent in 2003-04 to 29.62 per cent in 2008-09 due to
higher provisioning/ write-offs of sticky assets.
The group had been making higher provisions towards NPAs to improve asset

New private sector banks have been aggressive in their lending, and hence, have
seen an increase in gross NPAs.
The group's share in the advances has also been hovering at around 20 per cent in
recent years.
The proportion of net advances of OSCBs in the total net advances of all SCBs
decreased marginally from 19.96 per cent in 2003-04 to 19.17 per cent in 2008-09, while
the proportion of net NPAs of the private banks in the total net NPAs increased from
19.73 per cent to 23.89 per cent.The ratio of net NPAs to the share of net advances has gone up from 0.99 per cent in

In the past, stringent risk management practices have helped foreign banks maintainthe lowest NPA levels amongst all SCBs.
However, the global financial downturn brought forth a new scenario, wherein
foreign banks registered the steepest increase in NPAs as compared to last year.
The proportion of gross NPAs to gross advances increased from 1.80 per cent in 2007-08 to 4.00 per cent in 2008-09, while the proportion of net NPAs to net advances rose
from 0.90 per cent to 1.70 per cent.
The share of foreign banks in gross advances of all SCBs declined from 7.94 per cent
in 2003-04 to 5.59 per cent in 2008-09.
Over the same period, the share of gross NPAs in all SCBs increased from 4.20 per
cent to 9.86 per cent, while the share of net NPAs increased from 3.65 per cent to 9.55
per cent.

Operating expenditure
Staff costTraditionally, staff cost as a percentage of total operating expenditure has been
significantly higher for public sector banks, and hence, they initiated the voluntary
retirement scheme (VRS) in the late 1990s to reduce this cost.
However, in the post-VRS period, public sector banks rationalised staff cost tocontain non-interest expenses.
In recent years, per employee cost of PSBs has risen due to the changing composition
of the staff and increased provisioning towards superannuation liabilities.
Wages by SCBs increased at 19.25 per cent in 2008-09 as compared with 10.8 per cent
in the previous year.
In terms of percentage to total assets, however, the wage bill of SCBs has remained
constant at 0.9 per cent.
-
7/29/2019 Analysis of Banking Industry.pdf
98/268
Staff cost
The ratio of wage bill to operating expenses increased from 51.7 per cent in 2007-08 to53.4 per cent in 2008-09.
Continuing the trend, the wage bill to operating expenses ratio was the lowest in
respect of OSCBs (39.0 per cent) in 2008-09, followed closely by foreign banks (39.8 per
cent).
The wage bill to operating ratio of all bank groups, except foreign banks, showed a
marginal rise during 2008-09.
We believe that staff costs should be viewed in conjunction with the quantum of
funds managed by the staff.
Hence, to analyse staff cost, we have compared the following ratios across bank
groups:
Average advances/staff costs
Average funds deployed (AFD)/staff cost

from 66 times in 2007-08, while AFD to total staff cost also decreased to 110 times in
2008-09 from 113 times in 2007-08.
Despite this, OSCBs continued to be the frontrunners in terms of productivity.
The branch network of OSCBs is not as large as that of public sector banks. In
addition, they have invested heavily in technology, thereby bringing down their staff
requirements.
For example, an ATM is manned by just one person and performs numerous basic
banking operations.Also, OSCBs make use of direct selling agents (DSAs) to source prospective clients,
which helps restrict need for staff.

Other income
Core fee income essential to enhance profitability
Besides interest income, banks also earn fees from services such as issuing letters of
credit, providing guarantees, bills collection and cash management services, for which
they charge commission or brokerage income in the form of draft charges and bank
charges.
These sources of income together constitute the 'other income' of a bank. Income
earned by way of profits on the sale of investments also falls under this category.

Nationalised banks
Nationalised banks have traditionally had the lowest proportion of other income intotal income amongst all bank groups, as their foray into peripheral segments has
been comparatively slow.
The share of other income in the total income of nationalised banks fell from 9.4 per
cent in 2007-08 to 8.7 per cent in 2008-09. The core fee income as a percentage of otherincome decreased slightly from 58.0 per cent in 2007-08 to 57.0 per cent in 2008-09.
Other scheduled commercial banks
The proportion of other income to total income of OSCBs declined from 16.2 per cent
in 2007-08 to 14.6 per cent in 2008-09 due to the base effect.Their core fee income as a percentage of other income increased from 75.5 per cent in

Foreign banks
In continuation of past trends, foreign banks had the highest proportion of otherincome to total income, which stood at 29.7 per cent in 2008-09.
Their global presence has enabled foreign banks to be strong players in foreign
exchange and trade finance transactions. Moreover, the syndication fee/ processing
fee on foreign currency lending, in which they are strong players, helps foreign banksin increasing their fee-based income.
However, government regulations that restrict the number of branches that foreign
banks can operate have been hampering growth in their fee income in the form of
commission and exchange income.

Although yield on advances increased by 34 bps, the spreads dipped due to a 34 bps
fall in yield on investments and a rise of 22 bps in interest cost in 2008-09.
Yield on carry business
The yield on carry business went up by 2 bps in 2008-09, driven by yield on
advances. However, the rise was marginal due to the combined influence of the fall in
yield on investments and the increase in interest costs.

Sectoral deployment of gross bank credit
Infrastructure (which has the biggest share in credit outstanding) had the largestshare of incremental bank credit to industry in absolute terms, followed by basic
metals and metal products, and textiles.
Credit to petroleum, coal products and nuclear fuels registered the sharpest rise in
growth rate (63.8 per cent), followed by construction (37.8 per cent) and infrastructure(31.6 per cent).
Despite the slowdown, credit to select sectors, especially petroleum and coal
products, rose sharply.

The growth rate in retail credit by banks, which has been declining since 2005-06, felldrastically to 4.0 per cent as at end-March 2009 from 17.1 per cent at end-March 2008.
It also remained lower than the growth in loans and advances of SCBs (21.2 per cent).
As a result, the share of retail credit in total loans and advances declined to 21.3 per
cent at end- March 2009 from 24.5 per cent at end-March 2008.Though loans to consumer durables increased, growth of banks retail portfolio
decelerated on account of the slowdown in credit for housing loans, auto loans, credit
card receivables and other personal loans.

Introduction
With the economic growth consolidating around the pre-crisis trend and growingconfidence in the Indian economy, companies have reinstated their investment plans
in 2010-11.
However, due to increase in commodity prices and rising interest rates, CRISIL
Research expects capital investments to slightly moderate over the next 2 years.Owing to the buoyant credit flow from the banking system, banks accounted for
nearly 60 per cent of total incremental financing to the commercial sector during
April-December 2010.
The funding from non-bank sources, particularly foreign sources, decreased on
account of lower FDI inflow and lower subscription to American Depositary
Receipts/Global Depositary Receipts.

Incremental credit deposit ratio to reach 70 72 per cent in 2011 12
Strong credit off take and relatively slower growth in deposits had led to the
incremental credit-deposit ratio to increase to 100.1 per cent on February 25, 2011 from
93.5 per cent on September 24, 2010.
Research expects the incremental credit-deposit ratio to reach 70-72 per cent by the
end of 2011-12 primarily due to an expected moderation in credit growth and a high
deposit growth rate.

divided into agricultural, industry, retail and services.
The industry and retail segment is expected to grow at a faster pace in 2010-11 as
compared to 2009-10.
Large capital expenditure plans by the industry translated into immense demand
from corporates for term loan funding.

G o t ate o c ed t by occupat o
Given sharp increase in credit off take by industries like petrochemicals, cement and
basic metals in 2010-11, the annual growth rate of industry credit is expected to be
significantly higher at around 27 per cent vis-a-vis 24 per cent of 2009-10.
This high growth rate can be attributed to two factors - firstly, increase in additional
demand for domestic credit in the first half of 2010-11 owing to telecom players
investing for 3G and BWA spectrum licences; in the second half of 2010-11,credit growth became more broad based across sectors thus raising demand for
additional funds despite the continued tightening of monetary policy by the central
bank.
Research expects commercial credit to grow at 18 per cent in 2011-12 and 19 per cent
in 2012-13 due to drop in capital investments across industrial sectors, notably,
telecommunications, refinery, cement and automobiles and prevalence of high interest
rates.
Infrastructure share in bank credit increasing at phenomenal pace
-
7/29/2019 Analysis of Banking Industry.pdf
189/268
g p p
Bank lending to infrastructure projects has been increasing rapidly over the last few
years; the share of infrastructure credit in total bank credit has increased from 9.2 per
cent in March 2008 to 13.8 per cent in March 2011.
This trend is also expected to continue in 2011-12, with infrastructure credit growing
at 21.7 per cent y-o-y as against a 18.6 per cent growth in total bank credit.
Within the infrastructure space, the power sector would attract the largest chunk of
investments, notwithstanding issues related to availability of coal.
Main drivers of investment would be continuing deficit in power supply,
government's increased thrust on augmenting power generation capacity and
increasing private sector participation.

While segments such as housing loan and auto loan are likely to register a double-

We forecast personal loans and consumer durable loans growth to moderate.
Consequently, we expect retail credit to grow by 13-14 per cent over the next 2 years.

Working capital credit to grow at lower rate than term loans
-
7/29/2019 Analysis of Banking Industry.pdf
199/268
Working capital credit includes bills purchased and discounted, cash credits,
overdrafts and loans repayable.
Revenue growth forecasts, working capital cycle and the willingness of banks to fund
corporate requirement are some of the major factors influencing growth in this
segment.
In 2010-11, working capital credit is expected to have grown by 6-8 per cent given the
shift of banks to base rate regime, resulting in higher cost of borrowing for corporates.
Thus, corporates raised short-term money from alternate funding sources primarily
commercial papers.
The short-term credit growth was also subdued due to improved profitability
resulting in servicing of working capital requirements through internal accruals.
The proportion of working capital credit is expected to decline marginally over the
next 2 years on account of moderation in top line growth and efficient working capital
management.

Reining inflation coupled with negative real interest rates in the first half of 2010-11,
lead to high currency holdings and lower deposit growth. During most part of the
period, deposit growth ranged between 14-15 per cent.
Given the tightening liquidity scenario (on account of sudden withdrawal of liquidity
from the system in June 2010 due to 3G and BWA spectrum auction) and rising
demand for credit, several banks hiked deposit rates by 100-200 bps across maturities
during second half of 2010-11.
As a result, the deposit growth rate picked up from 14.3 per cent as on September 24,
2010 to 16.5 per cent as on February 25, 2011.

increase in deposit rates, and real interest rates turning positive, the deposit growth
rate is expected to be in the range of 17-18 per cent by 2011-12.

sectors
On the back of the economic downturn of 2008-09, the RBI had allowed onetime
restructuring for banks across industry segments.
As of March 2010, restructured assets contribute to 3.3 per cent of gross advances.
Due to improving economic scenario there have been slippages of only 5-10 per cent
of the restructured assets.While the recovery in demand and improved credit risk profile of borrowers had
offset a part of the risks, some specific sectors like airlines, microfinance, textiles
(processing), real estate are still under pressure.
In infrastruture sector even though the overall NPAs are still below 1 per cent, the
absolute amount of NPAs have increased by almost 100 per cent from Rs 14.4 billion
as Sept 2009 to Rs 27.3 billion as of Sept 2010. Thus, NPAs in the above sectors need to
be closel monitored.

However, in 2012-13, the ratio is expected to decline to 1.9 per cent given improving

Delinquency levels in small-scale industries (SSIs) portfolios have traditionally been
higher than those of other asset classes.
The SSI sector is the first to be impacted in case of any economic slowdown.
Constraints in working capital payments have impacted the SSI sector's business and
earnings profile in 2009-10.
We estimate the NPA ratio in the SSI loan portfolio to increase to 3.9 per cent in 2010-
11, and further to 4.4 per cent by 2011-12 given the impact of tight liquidity on the
payment capability of SSIs.

226/268
Credit growth is estimated to have exceeded deposit growth by 400 basis points by
March 2011. Further, the credit deposit (CD) ratio has reached a high level of around
76 per cent.
These factors have caused a liquidity crunch in the system.
Tight liquidity is also reflected in low SLR investments of 26 per cent in 2010-11 as a
proportion of Net Demand and Time Liability (NDTL).
Given the tight liquidity scenario, bargaining power of banks has increased, enabling
them to pass on the increase in costs by increasing lending rates by 50-100 basis points
in the third and fourth quarter of 2010-11.
In addition, to meet the increasing demand for funds, banks raised deposit rates by
around 100-200 bps across maturities in second half of 2010-11.

banking system.
Thus, the impact of increase in deposit costs will be visible in 2011-12 and 2012-13, as
low cost deposits raised in 2009-10 get repriced upwards.Furthermore, the move by
RBI, in April 2011, to hike savings account interest rates would increase the cost of
funds for banks, on this account only, by around 10 bps.
CRISIL Research expects the spreads to decline by 21 bps in 2011-12 and 10 bps in
2012-13.
Net interest margins would decline by around 20 bps and 8 bps respectively during
this period from 2.65 per cent in 2010-11, To compensate for the rise in cost of
deposits, banks may impose additional charges for providing various facilities on the
savings account.

at the time of issuance of securities and at their maturity.
With interest rates likely to rise over the next 6-12 months, banks are expected to

The investment profiles of SCBs reveal that almost 45.8 per cent of the portfolio
belongs to the over-5-years maturity bucket.
A large proportion of these investments are likely to be strategic in nature such as
investments in subsidiaries.
As of March 2010, around 27 per cent of these investments were held in trading
securities with remaining maturity of less than 1 year, 14.5 per cent were in the 1-3
years bucket, and 12 per cent were in the 3-5 years maturity bucket.
The yield on investments is expected to fall post 2009-10 due to upward movement of
interest rates, as upward movement in yields exerts pressure on bond prices. We
expect yield on investment to fall by 10-20 bps over the next 2 years.

Bank deposits comprise current deposits, savings deposits, and term deposits.
Current and savings deposits (CASA) constitute low-cost deposits for banks.
While banks do not offer interest on current deposits, interest on savings deposits
are regulated by the RBI; it currently stands at 4.0 per cent. Interest rates on term
deposits are determined by individual banks based on the tenure.
When credit offtake is high, and competing investments such as mutual funds, stock
markets and post office savings offer attractive returns, banks tend to increase rates on
term deposits to attract customers.

As on March 2011, the credit off take is estimated to be higher by 400 basis points
than the deposits off take.
Further, the CD ratio has also reached peak levels leading to severe crunch in
liquidity.
Thus, banks have increased deposit rates by around 100-200 bps across maturities
over the last 6 months.
The full effect of this would be felt over the next 2 years.
Also, the cost of deposits is likely to increase further if the RBI deregulates the
savings account deposit rates.
Consequently, cost of deposits is expected to increase by 40 bps and 30 bps in 2011-12
and 2012-13, respectively.

Cost of borrowings
As in the case of advances, most bank borrowings are raised on floating rate basis.

Borrowings are raised primarily to fix liquidity mismatches, and hence, are generally
short term in nature.
According to CRISIL Research, analysis of the maturity profile indicates that 55-60
per cent of SCB borrowings belong to the less than 1-year maturity bucket.
The sources of funds for banks and the share of each source in total borrowings have
been enumerated in the following table:

As the table indicates, borrowings from other banks have declined, while that from
outside India have increased significantly to 60 per cent in 2009-10 from 44 per cent of
total borrowings in 2005-06.
Borrowings from outside India are generally linked to the London Interbank Offered
Rate (LIBOR), which is relatively low.
Therefore, we expect this trend of increased borrowings outside India to continue
over the medium term.
Based on the proportion of borrowings from various sources, and the movement in
rates for each source, the cost of borrowing is estimated to increase in 2011-12 and
2012-13 in view of the expected upward movement in interest rates.

among borrowers, ICICI Bank seems to realigning its portfolio.Retail Advances as a % to total advances has been consistentlybrought down from 55% last year to 45%, which we project to decreasefurther.Within retail portfolio focus has been shifted from personal loans to
mortgages.Corporate and SME composition have increased by 500 bpssequentially to 22%.Corporate segment has grown by 34% sequentially.This is a conscious decision to slow on business and increase the
margins by attracting higher low cost deposits and also diversifyingaway from retail to Corporate and SME segment including projectfinance and corporate finance thereby decreasing fresh slippage.

CASA (CURRENT AND SAVINGS ACCOUNT)
CASA has improved phenomenally over last quarter, it increased by

650 bps to 36.9%.
On an absolute basis, CASA has grown by 9%, with a modest
growth in overall CASA; the CASA proportion has increased
dramatically because overall deposit has de-grown by 11%.
It would be interesting to watch whether it would be able to
maintain CASA, once the balance sheet growth resumes.
We have factored in modest growth in CASA ratio from last year, as
the CASA proportion anyways improves in a lower interest rate
regime on account of decreasing differential between interest on term
and saving deposits.

Despite healthy expansion in branches in 2009-10, operatingexpenses decreased by 18% to Rs14.2bn.
Major cost containment came from direct marketing expenses.
Cost to income has been brought down to 36.9% as against
43.2% in corresponding quarter last year.
It has approval to open 580 additional branches, which should
limit further cost rationalization.

improvement in business environment.Management has indicated that it is looking to build selectivelylonger duration portfolio in its book.The bank reaffirmed that factors such as - 1) surplus liquidity, givingborrowers an arbitrage to borrow cheaply through non-banking
channels; 2) repayment by specific industries; 3) low inflation/lowinventory environment; and 4) fill-up of capital by equity markets have resulted in subdued credit growth for the industry.

capital lending, is witnessing an increase in long-term proposals. For HDFC Bank, participation in the infrastructure segment, which
has been the biggest consumer of credit for the banking sector, has
been mainly through working capital loans to suppliers of the
vertical.
Given the current liability structure, the bank believes that it wouldbe able to take a slightly higher duration corporate assets in its
portfolio from current levels.
It has indicated that going forward, it is willing to participate in a
few of the long-term projects (infrastructure mainly in telecom,
power and other CAPEX related investments), provided pricing of
credit risk and duration is appropriate.
