CHAPTER-1
INTRODUCTION TO LOANS AND ADVANCES
The commercial banks accept deposits and also lend money to the people who require it for
various purposes. Lending of funds to traders, businessmen and industrial enterprises is one of
the important activities of commercial banks. The major part of the deposits received by banks is
lent out, and a large part of their income is earned from interest on such lending. There is a
considerable difference between the rate of interest which the commercial bank grants on
deposits, and the rate they charge on loans and advances. It is this difference which constitutes
the main source of bank earnings.
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 agreed rate and intervals
of payment.
'Advance' on the other hand, is a 'credit facility' granted by the bank. Banks grant
advances largely for short-term purposes
1. Loans and advances can be arranged from banks in keeping with the flexibility in
business operations. Traders may borrow money for day to day financial needs availing
of the facility of cash credit, bank overdraft and discounting of bills. The amount raised
as loan may be repaid within a short period to suit the convenience of the borrower.
Thus business may be run efficiently with borrowed funds from banks for financing its
working capital requirements.
2. Loans and advances are utilized for making payment of current liabilities, wage and
salaries of employees, and also the tax liability of business.
3. Loans and advances from banks are found to be 'economical' for traders and
businessmen, because banks charge a reasonable rate of interest on such loans/advances.
People make their funds available to the banks by depositing their ‘savings’ in
various types of accounts. In other words, bank funds mainly consist of deposits from
the public, though banks may also borrow money from other institutions and the Reserve
Bank of India. Banks thus mobilizes funds through its deposits. On public deposits the banks
pay interest at and the rate of interest varies according to the type of deposit. The
borrowing rate refers to the rate of interest paid by a bank on its deposits. The rates which
the banks allow depend upon the nature of deposit account and the period for which the
deposit is made with the bank. No interest is generally paid on current account deposits. The
rate is relatively lower on savings account deposits. Higher rates ranging from 6% to 12% per
annum are paid on fixed deposit accounts according to the period of deposit.
Banks also borrow from other institutions as well as from the Reserve Bank of India. When
the Reserve Bank of India lends money to commercial banks, the rate of interest it charges
for lending is known as ‘Bank Rate’
The rate at which commercial banks make funds available to people is known as ‘Lending -
rate’. The lending rates also vary depending upon the nature of loans and advances. The
rates also vary according to the purpose in view. For example if the loan is sanctioned for the
purpose of activities for the development of backward areas, the rate of interest is relatively
lower as against loans and advances for commercial/business purposes. Similarly for smaller
amounts of loan the rate of interest is higher as compared to larger amounts. Again lending
rates for consumer durables, e.g. Loans for purchase of two-wheelers, cars, refrigerators,
etc. are relatively higher than for commercial borrowings.
However, the Reserve Bank of India from time to time announces changes in the
interest-rate structure to regulate the lending of funds by banks. Different rates of interest are
prescribed for various categories of advances, such as advances to agriculture, small
scale industries, road transport, etc. Graded rates of interest are prescribed for backward
areas. Lower rate is normally charged from agencies selling food-grains at fixed price
through Govt. approved outlets.
Lastly, lower rate of interest is charged for loans granted to persons belonging to ‘weaker
sections of the society’.
The commercial banks lend money in four different ways: (a) direct loans, (b) cash
credit, (c) overdraft, and (d) discounting of bills. These are briefly discussed below.
1. Loans
Loan is the amount borrowed from bank. The nature of borrowing is that the money is
disbursed and recovery is made in installments. While lending money by way of loan,
credit is given for a definite purpose and for a pre-determined period. Depending upon
the purpose and period of loan, each bank has its own procedure for granting loan. However
the bank is at liberty to grant the loan requested or refuse it depending upo n its own
cash position and lending policy. There are two types of loan available from banks.
(a) A Demand Loan: Is a loan which is repayable on demand by the bank. In other words, it
is repayable at short-notice. The entire amount of demand loan is disbursed at one
time and the borrower has to pay interest on it. The borrower can repay the loan either
in lump sum (one time) or as agreed with the bank. For example, if it is so agreed the
amount of loan may be repaid in suitable installments. Such loans are normally granted by
banks against security. The security may include materials or goods in stock, shares of
companies or any other asset. Demand loans are raised normally for working capital
purposes, like purchase of raw materials, making payment of short-term liabilities
(b) A Term Loans: Medium and long term loans are called term loans. Term loans are
granted for more than a year and repayment of such loans is spread over a longer period.
Term loan is required for the purpose of starting a new business activity, renovation,
modernization, expansion/ extension of existing units, purchase of plant and machinery,
purchase of land for setting up of a factory, construction of factory building or purchase of
other immovable assets. These loans are generally secured against the mortgage of land,
plant and machinery, building and the like.
2. Cash credit
Cash credit is a flexible system of lending under which the borrower has the option to
withdraw the funds as and when required and to the extent of his needs. Under this
arrangement the banker specifies a limit of loan for the customer (known as cash credit
limit) up to which the customer is allowed to draw. The cash credit limit is based on the
borrower’s need and as agreed with the bank.
Against the limit of cash credit, the borrower is permitted to withdraw as and when he needs
money subject to the limit sanctioned.
It is normally sanctioned for a period of one year and secured by the security of some
tangible assets or personal guarantee. If the account is running satisfactorily, the limit of
cash credit may be renewed by the bank at the end of year. The interest is calculated and
charged to the customer’s account.
Cash credit, is one of the types of bank lending against security by way of pledge or
hypothetication of goods. ‘Pledge’ means bailment of goods as security for payment of debt.
Its primary purpose is to put the goods pledged in the possession of the lender. It
ensures recovery of loan in case of failure of the borrower to repay the borrowed
amount. In ‘Hypothetication’, goods remain in the possession of the borrower, who finds
himself under the agreement to give possession of goods to the banker whenever the banker
requires him to do so. So hypothetication is a device to create a charge over the asset under
circumstances in which transfer of possession is either inconvenient or impracticable.
3. Overdraft
Overdraft facility is more or less similar to ‘cash credit’ facility. Overdraft facility is the
result of an agreement with the bank by which a current account holder is allowed to
draw over and above the credit balance in his/her account. It is a short-period facility. This
facility is made available to current account holders who operate their account through
cheques. The customer is permitted to withdraw the amount of overdraft allowed as and
when he/she needs it and to repay it through deposits in the account as and when it is
convenient to him/her.
Overdraft facility is generally granted by a bank on the basis of a written request by the
customer. Sometimes the bank also insists on either a promissory note from the borrower or
personal security of the borrower to ensure safety of amount withdrawn by the customer.
The interest rate on overdraft is higher than is charged on loan. The following are some of
the benefits of cash credits and overdraft:
Cash credit and overdraft allow flexibility of borrowing, which depends upon the
need of the borrower.
4. Discounting of Bills
Apart from sanctioning loans and advances, discounting of bills of exchange by bank is
another way of making funds available to the customers. Bills of exchange are negotiable
instruments which enable debtors to discharge their obligations to the creditors. Such Bills
of exchange arise out of commercial transactions both in inland trade and foreign trade.
When the seller of goods has to realize his dues from the buyer at a distant place
immediately or after the lapse of the agreed period of time, the bill of exchange facilitates
this task with the help of the banking institution.
In discounting a bill, the bank pays the amount to the customer in advance, i.e. before the
due date. For this purpose, the bank charges discount on the bill at a specified rate. The bill
so discounted, is retained by the bank till its due date and is presented to the drawer
on the date of maturity. In case the bill is dishonored on due date the amount due on bill
together with interest and other charges is debited by the bank to the customer’s a ccount.
Commercial banks grant loans for different periods-long, short and medium term for
different purposes.
Short-term loans
Short term loans are granted by banks to meet the working capital needs of business. The
working capital needs refer to financial needs for such purposes as, purchase of raw
materials, payment of wages, electricity bill, taxes etc. Such loans are granted by
banks to its borrowers to be repaid within a short period of time not exceeding 15 months.
Short term loans are normally granted against the security of tangible assets like goods in
stock, shares, debentures, etc. The rate of interest charged on short term loans ranges from
12% to18% p.a.
Term Loans
Medium and long term loans are generally known as ‘term loans’. These loans are granted
for more than 15 months. In case of medium term loan, the period ranges from 15
months to less than 5 years. Medium term loans are generally granted for heavy repairs,
expansion of existing units, modernization/renovation etc. Such loans are sanctioned
against the security of immovable assets. The normal rate of interest ranges between 12%
to 18% depending upon the period, purpose, nature and amount of the loan. Though banks
may grant long term loans, they avoid granting loan for more than 5 years
To ensure the safety of funds lent, the first and most important factor considered by a bank
is the capacity of borrowers to repay the amount of loan, The bank therefore, relies
primarily on the character, capacity and financial soundness of the borrower. But the bank
can hardly afford to take any risk in this regard and hence it also has the security of
tangible assets owned by the borrower. In case the borrower fails to repay the loan, the
bank can recover the amount by attaching the assets.
It can sell the assets offered as security and realize the amount. Thus from the view point of
security of loans, we can divide the loans into two categories: (a) secured, and (b)
unsecured. Unsecured loans are those loans which are not covered by the security of
tangible assets. Such loans are granted to firms/institutions against the personal security of
the owner, manager or director. On the other hand, Secured loans are those which are
granted against the security of tangible assets, like stock in trade and immovable property.
Thus, while granting loan against the security of some assets, a charge is created over the
assets of the borrower in favors of the bank. This enables the bank to recover the dues from
the customer out of the sale proceeds of the assets in case the borrower fails to repay the
loan.
There are various types of securities which may be offered against loans granted, but
all of those are not acceptable to the banks. The types of securities genera lly accepted
by the bank are the following:
Banks provide financial assistance to its customers in the form of loans, advances, cash
credit, and overdraft and through the discounting of bills. The procedure of applying for and
sanction of loans and advances differs from bank to bank. However, the steps which are
generally to be taken in all cases are as follow:
Each bank has separate loan application forms for different categories of borrowers. When
you want to borrow money from a bank, you will have to fill up a loan application form
available with the bank free of cost.
The loan application form contains different columns to be filled in by the applicant. It
includes all information required about the borrower, purpose of loan, nature of facility
(cash-credit, overdraft etc) required, period of repayment, nature of security offered,
and the financial status of the borrower. A running business limit may be required to
furnish additional information in respect of:
The bank application form duly filled in should be submitted to the bank along with the
relevant documents.
3. Sanctioning of loan
The bank scrutinizes the documents submitted and determines the credit worthiness of
the applicant. If it is found to be feasible, the loan is sanctioned. If the loan is for Rs
5000 or less, normally the Branch Manager himself can take the decision and sanction the
loan. In case the amount of loan is more than Rs 5000, the application is considered at
regional, zonal or head office level, depending on the amount of loan.
When the loan is sanctioned by the bank and the borrower is informed about it, he
will have to execute an agreement with the bank regarding terms and condition for the
amount of loan raised.
The borrower will now arrange for security against the loan. These securities may be
immovable properties, shares, debentures, fixed deposit receipts, and other documents, like,
Kisan Vikas Patra, National Savings Certificate, as per agreement.
When the borrower completes all the formalities, he is allowed to get the amount of
loan/advance/ over draft as sanctioned by the bank. In case of ‘discounting of bills’, the
bank credits the amount of bill to the customer’s account before the realization of the bill
and thus, makes available the fund. In case, the bill is dishonored on due date, the amount
due on the bill together with interest and other charges are payable by the party whose bill is
discounted.
RBI has been issuing from time to time rules/regulations/instructions on statutory and other
restrictions in respect of loans and advances to Banks for implementation and to adopt adequate
safeguards in order to ensure that the banking activities undertaken by them are run on sound,
prudent and profitable lines, as under.
1. Statutory Restrictions
Advances against bank own share
A bank cannot grant any loans and advances on the security of its own shares. (Section 20(1) of
the Banking Regulation Act, 1949)
Banks are prohibited from entering into any commitment for granting any loans or advances to
or on behalf of any of its directors, or any company/firm in which any of its directors is
interested as partner, manager, employee or guarantor (B.R Act (Section 20(1).
2. Regulatory Restrictions

This restriction would also apply to grant of loans and advances to spouse and
minor/dependent children of the Directors of banks except those who own independent
source of income arising out of his/her employment or profession and the facility so
granted is based on standard procedures and norms for assessing the creditworthiness of
the borrower. The term “relative” is explained in RBI Master Circular dt. 01.07.13.
Loans & advances of less than Rs.25 Lakh to these borrowers can be sanctioned at
appropriate level as per delegation with suitable reporting to the Board.

The guidelines are applicable while granting loans/ advances or awarding contracts
to directors of scheduled co-operative banks or their relatives and to directors of
Subsidiaries/trustees of mutual funds/venture capital funds set up by them as also other
banks.
Grant of Loans & Advances to Officers and Relatives of Senior Officers of Banks
No officer or any Committee comprising, inter alia, an officer as member shall sanction
any credit facility to his/her relative but only by the next higher sanctioning authority.
Credit facilities sanctioned to senior officer shall be reported to board.
Credit facilities to the relatives of senior officers of the bank sanctioned by the
appropriate authority should be reported to the Board.

prizes / lottery/free trips (in India and/or abroad), etc. or any other incentives having an element
of chance, except inexpensive gifts costing not more than Rs. 250/-. Etc
Loan is a form of debt, often with interest. There are several reasons why people apply for loans.
Usually they borrow money to purchase a house, buy a car, or start a business. Often, applying
for a loan is necessary because most do not have available financial resources they need to make
a purchase. Other forms of loans, like the student loans have helped a lot of students get through
school. Those who use student loan debt consolidation clearly have multiple student loans. They
do this to manage their obligations better.
Since loan is borrowed, the lender expects to receive payment with the interest specified. In
addition, borrowers should make the payments at the specified due date for a certain period. This
is where most people have problems. Most problems start when people cannot make the monthly
payments required due to different circumstance. Some finds it difficult to pay their loan because
of the many other debts they have. Some encounter additional problems such as medical
emergencies and job loss.
Since getting a loan is a commitment, you have to be very careful with your decisions. Choose
the right lender. There is more to picking a lender than just looking for one with the least interest.
Keep in mind that those with low interest require longer period. Remember, when choosing a
lender, check its stability, its flexibility, repayment schemes, and interest rates.
Before you decide to get a loan, it is only right that you review its advantages and disadvantages.
Advantages
Below are the advantages of getting a loan. These are also the reasons why many apply for it:
There is a loan for just about anything. If you are in need of money to purchase a house,
you can apply for a housing loan. If you need a car, you can apply for a car loan. With all
the loans available, you will be able to purchase everything you need.
It helps a person afford an expensive purchase. All of us wish to acquire a property.
However, we do not have the amount of money to make the purchase. Loans allow us to
do this. They lend us the money so that we can finally afford our desired property.
Payment is staggered, which makes it affordable. This enables the person to pay off the
loan gradually. If a person has chosen a good deal, he should be able to finish paying off
the loan in the time specified.
One gets the funding he needs. If a person wants to start a business, he can do so by
applying for a business loan. He does not have to wait for his savings to build up before
he can start his own business. They can also use the amount they loan for investment
purposes.
Getting a loan is very helpful to start building your dream. However, you have to be very
careful with your decisions. This is because of the problems you will possibly encounter
if you mismanage your loans and other debts. If you have multiple loans, make sure to
manage it well. Use a debt consolidation loan calculator and check if it is better to
consolidate all your loans. Make sure that you manage your loans from the start. Keep in
mind that loans have disadvantages too.
Disadvantages
It is a long-term debt. This means that you have to deal with it for a specified period,
which means that you have to commit yourself to making monthly payments specified in
your agreement for the period indicated to repay the loans.
If you miss payments, you will face serious consequences. You can face foreclosure or
repossession of the property. In addition, you could also face penalties and legal issues. It
will also reflect in your credit rating, which can lead to a low credit scores.
You may not be able to make early loan repayment. Few lenders give option for early
repayment. Although there are some who will allow you to do this, they will charge you
with early repayment fees.
Loans are very helpful. However, you have to manage them well because you can get into a lot
of trouble if you fail to make the expected payments.
Banks should have a due diligence process in place for engagement of recovery
agents.
Banks should inform the borrower the full details of the Recovery Agency
Firm/companies while forwarding cases to the recovery agency.
The notice and the authorization letter should, among other details, also include the
telephone numbers of the relevant recovery agency.
The up to date details of the recovery agency firms / companies engaged by banks
may also be posted on the bank’s website.
Each bank should have a mechanism whereby the borrowers' grievances with regard
to the recovery process can be addressed.
For example, fixed and low income group people deposit their savings in small amounts from the
points of view of security, income and saving promotion. On the other hand, traders and
businessmen deposit their savings in the banks for the convenience of payment.
Therefore, keeping the needs and interests of various sections of society, banks formulate various
deposit schemes. Generally, there are three types of deposits which are as follows
Current Deposits:
The depositors of such deposits can withdraw and deposit money whenever they desire. Since
banks have to keep the deposited amount of such accounts in cash always, they carry either no
interest or very low rate of interest. These deposits are called as Demand Deposits because these
can be demanded or withdrawn by the depositors at any time they want such deposit accounts
are highly useful for traders and big business firms because they have to make payments and
accept payments many times in a day.
Fixed Deposits:
These are the deposits which are deposited for a definite period of time. This period is generally
not less than one year and, therefore, these are called as long term deposits. These deposits
cannot be withdrawn before the expiry of the stipulated time and, therefore, these are also called
as time deposits. These deposits generally carry a higher rate of interest because banks can use
these deposits for a definite time without having the fear of being withdrawn.
Saving Deposits:
In such deposits, money up to a certain limit can be deposited and withdrawn once or twice in a
week. On such deposits, the rate of interest is very less. As is evident from the name of such
deposits their main objective is to mobilize small savings in the form of deposits. These deposits
are generally done by salaried people and the people who have fixed and less income.
The second important function of commercial banks is to advance loans to its customers. Banks
charge interest from the borrowers and this is the main source of their income.
Banks advance loans not only on the basis of the deposits of the public rather they also advance
loans on the basis of depositing the money in the accounts of borrowers. In other words, they
create loans out of deposits and deposits out of loans. This is called as credit creation by
commercial bank.
Modern banks give mostly secured loans for productive purposes. In other words, at the time of
advancing loans, they demand proper security or collateral. Generally, the value of security or
collateral is equal to the amount of loan. This is done mainly with a view to recover the loan
money by selling the security in the event of non-refund of the loan.
At some times, banks give loan on the basis of personal security also. Therefore, such loans are
called as unsecured loan. Banks generally give following types of loans and advance.
Cash Credit
In this type of credit scheme, banks advance loans to its customers on the basis of bonds,
inventories and other approved securities. Under this scheme, banks enter into an agreement with
its customers to which money can be withdrawn many times during a year. Under this set up
banks open accounts of their customers and deposit the loan money. With this type of loan, credit
is created.
Demand Loans
These are such loans that can be recalled on demand by the banks. The entire loan amount is paid
in lump sum by crediting it to the loan account of the borrower, and thus entire loan becomes
chargeable to interest with immediate effect.
These loans may be given as personal loans, loans to finance working capital or as priority sector
advances. These are made against some security and entire loan amount is transferred to the loan
account of the borrower.
Over Draft
Banks advance loans to its customer’s up to a certain amount through over-drafts, if there are no
deposits in the current account. For this banks demand a security from the customers and charge
very high rate of interest.
This is the most prevalent and important method of advancing loans to the traders for short-term
purposes. Under this system, banks advance loans to the traders and business firms by
discounting their bills. In this way, businessmen get loans on the basis of their bills of exchange
before the time of their maturity.
3. Investment of Funds
The banks invest their surplus funds in three types of securities—Government securities, other
approved securities and other securities. Government securities include both, central and state
governments, such as treasury bills, national savings certificate etc.
Other securities include securities of state associated bodies like electricity boards, housing
boards, debentures of Land Development Banks units of UTI, shares of Regional Rural banks
etc.
4. Agency Functions
Banks function in the form of agents and representatives of their customers. Customers give their
consent for performing such functions. The important functions of these types are as follows:
Banks collect cheques, drafts, bills of exchange and dividends of the shares for their
customers.
Banks make payment for their clients and at times accept the bills of exchange: of their
customers for which payment is made at the fixed time.
Banks pay insurance premium of their customers. Besides this, they also deposit loan
installments, income-tax, interest etc. as per directions.
Banks purchase and sell securities, shares and debentures on behalf of their customers.
Banks arrange to send money from one place to another for the convenience of their
customers.
5. Miscellaneous Functions
Besides the functions mentioned above, banks perform many other functions of general utility
which are as follows:
Banks make arrangement of lockers for the safe custody of valuable assets of their
customers such as gold, silver, legal documents etc.
Banks collect necessary and useful statistics relating to trade and industry.or facilitating
foreign trade, banks undertakes to sell and purchase foreign exchange.
During natural calamities, banks are highly useful in mobilizing funds and donations.
Banks provide loans for consumer durables like Car, Air-conditioner, and Fridge etc.
3. Unsecured loan
In finance, unsecured debt refers to any type of debt or general obligation that is
not collateralized by a lien on specific assets of the borrower in the case of
a bankruptcy or liquidation or failure to meet the terms for repayment. In the event of the
bankruptcy of the borrower, the unsecured creditors will have a general claim on the assets of the
borrower after the specific pledged assets have been assigned to the secured creditors. The
unsecured creditors will usually realize a smaller proportion of their claims than the secured
creditors.
4. Short-term loans
Short term loans are granted by banks to meet the working capital needs of business. The
working capital needs refer to financial needs for such purposes as, purchase of raw materials,
payment of wages, electricity bill, taxes etc. Such loans are granted by banks to its borrowers to
be repaid within a short period of time not exceeding 15 months. Short term loans are normally
granted against the security of Tangible assets like goods in stock, shares, debentures, etc. The
rate of interest charged on short term loans ranges from 12% to18% p.a
5. Term loans
Medium and long term loans are generally known as ‘term loans’. These loans are granted for
more than 15 months. In case of Medium term loan, the period ranges from 15 months to less
Than 5 years. Medium term loans are generally granted for heavy repairs, Expansion of existing
units, modernization/renovation etc. Such loans are sanctioned against the security of immovable
assets. The normal rate of interest ranges between 12% to 18% depending upon the period,
purpose, nature and amount of the loan. Though banks may grant long term loans, they avoid
granting loan for more than 5 years.
