CORPORATE DEBT RESTRUCTURING (CDR) MECHANISM
What Does Corporate Debt Restructuring Mean?
A method used by companies with outstanding debt obligations to alter the terms of debt
agreement or to take advantages of lower interest rate.
The reorganization of a company's outstanding obligations, often achieved by reducing the
burden of the debts on the company by decreasing the rates paid and increasing the time the
company has to pay the obligation back. This allows a company to increase its ability to meet
the obligations. Also, some of the debt may be forgiven by creditors in exchange for an
equity position in the company.
The need for a corporate debt restructuring often arises when a company is going through
financial hardship and is having difficulty in meeting its obligations. If the troubles are
enough to pose a high risk of the company going bankrupt, it can negotiate with its creditors
to reduce these burdens and increase its chances of avoiding bankruptcy.
Method of CDR
The existing debt is called and then replaced with new debt at a lower interest rate.
Companies can also restructure their debt by altering the terms and provisions of the
existing debt issue.
Corporate Debt Restructuring (CDR) System
Background
Inspite of their best efforts and intentions, sometimes corporate find themselves in financial
difficulty because of factors beyond their control and also due to certain internal reasons. For
the revival of the corporate as well as for the safety of the money lent by the banks and FIs,
timely support through restructuring in genuine cases is called for. However, delay in
agreement amongst different lending institutions often comes in the way of such endeavors.
Based on the experience in other countries like the U.K., Thailand, Korea, etc. of putting in
place institutional mechanism for restructuring of corporate debt and need for a similar
mechanism in India, a Corporate Debt Restructuring System has been evolved.
Objective
To support continuing economic recovery.
Enabling viable debtors to continue business operations.
Promoting fair and equitable debt repayment to creditors.
Revival of viable Corporate (genuine cases).
Ensuring safety of money lent by Banks & FI’s.

The basic objective of corporate debt restructuring should be revival of units by increasing their
production within a time-frame and, if necessary, by changing the management with
government support. The CDR mechanism has not proved effective in redressing loan
delinquency by big borrowers; it has, in fact, enhanced the losses.
The objective of the Corporate Debt Restructuring (CDR) framework is to ensure timely andtransparent mechanism for restructuring of the corporate debts of viable entities facing
problems, outside the purview of BIFR, DRT and other legal proceedings, for the
benefit of all concerned. In particular, the framework will aim at preserving viable
corporates that are affected by certain internal and external factors and minimize the losses to
the creditors and other stakeholders through an orderly and coordinated restructuring
programme.
Proposals under CDR entail mainly the following:
Extending the repayment period of loans;
Converting the un-serviced portion of interest into term loans; and
Reducing the rate of interest on outstanding advances.
3. Structure
CDR system in the country will have a three tier structure :
• CDR Standing Forum• CDR Empowered Group
• CDR Cell
3.1 CDR Standing Forum :
3.1.1 The CDR Standing Forum would be the representative general body of all financial
institutions and banks participating in CDR system. All financial institutions and banks
should participate in the system in their own interest. CDR Standing Forum will be a self
empowered body, which will lay down policies and guidelines, guide and monitor the
progress of corporate debt restructuring.
3.1.2 The Forum will also provide an official platform for both the creditors and borrowers
(by consultation) to amicably and collectively evolve policies and guidelines for working out
debt restructuring plans in the interests of all concerned.
3.1.3 The CDR Standing Forum shall comprise Chairman& Managing Director, Industrial
Development Bank of India; Managing Director, Industrial Credit & Investment Corporation
of India Limited; Chairman, State Bank of India; Chairman, Indian Banks Association and
Executive Director, Reserve Bank of India as well as Chairmen and Managing Directors of
all banks and financial institutions participating as permanent members in the system. The
Forum will elect its Chairman for a period of one year and the principle of rotation will befollowed in the subsequent years. However, the Forum may decide to have a Working
8/6/2019 NPA Assignment
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/npa-assignment 4/13
Chairman as a whole-time officer to guide and carry out the decisions of the CDR Standing
Forum.
3.1.4 A CDR Core Group will be carved out of the CDR Standing Forum to assist the
Standing Forum in convening the meetings and taking decisions relating to policy, on behalf
of the Standing Forum. The Core Group will consist of Chief Executives of IDBI, ICICI,SBI, Bank of Baroda, Bank of India, Punjab National Bank, Indian Banks Association and a
representative of Reserve Bank of India.
3.1.5 The CDR Standing Forum shall meet at least once every six months and would review
and monitor the progress of corporate debt restructuring system. The Forum would also lay
down the policies and guidelines to be followed by the CDR Empowered Group and CDR
Cell for debt restructuring and would ensure their smooth functioning and adherence to the
prescribed time schedules for debt restructuring. It can also review any individual decisions
of the CDR Empowered Group and CDR Cell.
3.1.6 The CDR Standing Forum, the CDR Empowered Group and CDR Cell (described infollowing paragraphs) shall be housed in IDBI. The administrative and other costs shall be
shared by all financial institutions and banks. The sharing pattern shall be as determined by
the Standing Forum.
3.2 CDR Empowered Group and CDR Cell
The individual cases of corporate debt restructuring shall be decided by the CDR Empowered
Group, consisting of ED level representatives of IDBI, ICICI Limited and SBI as standing
members, in addition to ED level representatives of financial institutions and banks who have
an exposure to the concerned company. In order to make the CDR Empowered Groupeffective and broad based and operate efficiently and smoothly, it would have to be ensured
that each financial institution and bank, as participants of the CDR system, nominates a panel
of two or three EDs, one of whom will participate in a specific meeting of the Empowered
Group dealing with individual restructuring cases. Where, however, a bank / financial
institution has only one Executive Director, the panel may consist of senior officials, duly
authorized by its Board. The level of representation of banks/ financial institutions on the
CDR Empowered Group should be at a sufficiently senior level to ensure that concerned
bank / FI abides by the necessary commitments including sacrifices, made towards debt
restructuring.
3.2.2 The Empowered Group will consider the preliminary report of all cases of requests of restructuring, submitted to it by the CDR Cell. After the Empowered Group decides that
restructuring of the company is prima-facie feasible and the enterprise is potentially viable in
terms of the policies and guidelines evolved by Standing Forum, the detailed restructuring
package will be worked out by the CDR Cell in conjunction with the Lead Institution.
3.2.3 The CDR Empowered Group would be mandated to look into each case of debt
restructuring, examine the viability and rehabilitation potential of the Company and
approve the restructuring package within a specified time frame of 90 days, or at best 180
days of reference to the Empowered Group.
3.2.4 There should be a general authorisation by the respective Boards of the participatinginstitutions / banks in favour of their representatives on the CDR Empowered Group,
8/6/2019 NPA Assignment
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/npa-assignment 5/13
authorising them to take decisions on behalf of their organization, regarding restructuring of
debts of individual corporates.
3.2.5 The decisions of the CDR Empowered Group shall be final and action-reference point.
If restructuring of debt is found viable and feasible and accepted by the Empowered Group,
the company would be put on the restructuring mode. If, however, restructuring is not foundviable, the creditors would then be free to take necessary steps for immediate recovery of
dues and / or liquidation or winding up of the company, collectively or individually.
3.3 CDR Cell
3.3.1 The CDR Standing Forum and the CDR Empowered Group will be assisted by a CDR
Cell in all their functions. The CDR Cell will make the initial scrutiny of the proposals
received from borrowers / lenders, by calling for proposed rehabilitation plan and other
information and put up the matter before the CDR Empowered Group, within one month to
decide whether rehabilitation is prima facie feasible, if so, the CDR Cell will proceed to
prepare detailed Rehabilitation Plan with the help of lenders and if necessary, experts to beengaged from outside. If not found prima facie feasible, the lenders may start action for
recovery of their dues.
3.3.2 To begin with, CDR Cell will be constituted in IDBI, Mumbai and adequate members
of staff for the Cell will be deputed from banks and financial institutions. The CDR Cell may
also take outside professional help. The initial cost in operating the CDR mechanism
including CDR Cell will be met by IDBI initially for one year and then from contribution
from the financial institutions and banks in the Core Group at the rate of Rs.50 lakh each and
contribution from other institutions and banks at the rate of Rs.5 lakh each.
3.3.3 All references for corporate debt restructuring by lenders or borrowers will be
made to the CDR Cell. It shall be the responsibility of the lead institution / major
stakeholder to the corporate, to work out a preliminary restructuring plan in consultation
with other stakeholders and submit to the CDR Cell within one month. The CDR Cell will
prepare the restructuring plan in terms of the general policies and guidelines approved by the
CDR Standing Forum and place for the consideration of the Empowered Group within 30
days for decision. The Empowered Group can approve or suggest modifications, so,
however, that a final decision must be taken within a total period of 90 days. However, for
sufficient reasons the period can be extended maximum upto 180 days from the date of
reference to the CDR Cell.
4. Other features:
4.1 CDR will be a Non-statutory mechanism
4.1.1 CDR mechanism will be a voluntary system based on debtor-creditor agreement and
inter-creditor agreement.
4.1.2 The scheme will not apply to accounts involving only one financial institution or one
bank. The CDR mechanism will cover only multiple banking accounts / syndication /
consortium accounts with outstanding exposure of Rs.20 crore and above by banks and
institutions.
8/6/2019 NPA Assignment
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/npa-assignment 6/13
4.1.3 The CDR system will be applicable only to standard and sub-standard accounts. There
would be no requirement of the account / company being sick, NPA or being in default
for a specified period before reference to the CDR Group. However, potentially viable
cases of NPAs will get priority. This approach would provide the necessary flexibility and
facilitate timely intervention for debt restructuring. Prescribing any milestone(s) may not be
necessary, since the debt restructuring exercise is being triggered by banks and financialinstitutions or with their consent. In no case, the requests of any corporate indulging in wilful
default or misfeasance will be considered for restructuring under CDR.
4.1.4 Reference to Corporate Debt Restructuring System could be triggered by (i) any or
more of the secured creditor who have minimum 20% share in either working capital or term
finance, or (ii) by the concerned corporate, if supported by a bank or financial institution
having stake as in (i) above.
4.2 Legal Basis
The legal basis to the CDR mechanism shall be provided by the Debtor-Creditor
Agreement (DCA) and the Inter-Creditor Agreement. The debtors shall have to accede to
the DCA, either at the time of original loan documentation (for future cases) or at the time of
reference to Corporate Debt Restructuring Cell. Similarly, all participants in the CDR
mechanism through their membership of the Standing Forum shall have to enter into a legally
binding agreement, with necessary enforcement and penal clauses, to operate the System
through laid-down policies and guidelines.
4.3 Stand-Still Clause
4.3.1 One of the most important elements of Debtor-Creditor Agreement would be 'standstill' agreement binding for 90 days, or 180 days by both sides. Under this clause, both the
debtor and creditor(s) shall agree to a legally binding 'stand-still' whereby both the
parties commit themselves not to taking recourse to any other legal action during the
'stand-still' period, this would be necessary for enabling the CDR System to undertake the
necessary debt restructuring exercise without any outside intervention judicial or otherwise.
4.3.2 The Inter-Creditors Agreement would be a legally binding agreement amongst the
secured creditors, with necessary enforcement and penal clauses, wherein the creditors would
commit themselves to abide by the various elements of CDR system. Further , the creditors
shall agree that if 75% of secured creditors by value, agree to a debt restructuring package,
the same would be binding on the remaining secured creditors.
5. Accounting treatment for restructured accounts
The accounting treatment of accounts restructured under CDR would be governed by the
prudential norms indicated in circular DBOD. BP. BC. 98 / 21.04.048 / 2000-01 dated March
30, 2001. Restructuring of corporate debts under CDR could take place in the following
stages:
a. before commencement of commercial production;
b. after commencement of commercial production but before the asset has been
classified as sub-standard;
8/6/2019 NPA Assignment
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/npa-assignment 7/13
c. after commencement of commercial production and the asset has been classified as
sub-standard.
6. The prudential treatment of the accounts, subjected to restructuring under CDR, would be
governed by the following norms:
6.1 Treatment of standard accounts restructured under CDR:
a. A rescheduling of the instalments of principal alone, at any of the aforesaid first two
stages [paragraph 5(a) and (b) above] would not cause a standard asset to be classified
in the sub-standard category, provided the loan / credit facility is fully secured.
b. A rescheduling of interest element at any of the foregoing first two stages would not
cause an asset to be downgraded to sub-standard category subject to the condition that
the amount of sacrifice, if any, in the element of interest, measured in present value
terms, is either written off or provision is made to the extent of the sacrifice involved.
For the purpose, the future interest due as per the original loan agreement in respect
of an account should be discounted to the present value at a rate appropriate to therisk category of the borrower (i.e. current PLR + the appropriate credit risk premium
for the borrower-category) and compared with the present value of the dues expected
to be received under the restructuring package, discounted on the same basis.
c. In case there is a sacrifice involved in the amount of interest in present value terms, as
at (b) above, the amount of sacrifice should either be written off or provision made to
the extent of the sacrifice involved.
6.2 Treatment of sub-standard accounts restructured under CDR:
a. A rescheduling of the instalments of principal alone, would render a sub-standardasset eligible to be continued in the sub-standard category for the specified period,
provided the loan / credit facility is fully secured.
b. A rescheduling of interest element would render a sub-standard asset eligible to be
continued to be classified in sub-standard category for the specified period subject to
the condition that the amount of sacrifice, if any, in the element of interest, measured
in present value terms, is either written off or provision is made to the extent of the
sacrifice involved. For the purpose, the future interest due as per the original loan
agreement in respect of an account should be discounted to the present value at a rate
appropriate to the risk category of the borrower (i.e., current PLR + the appropriate
credit risk premium for the borrower-category) and compared with the present value
of the dues expected to be received under the restructuring package, discounted on thesame basis.
c. In case there is a sacrifice involved in the amount of interest in present value terms, as
at (b) above, the amount of sacrifice should either be written off or provision made to
the extent of the sacrifice involved. Even in cases where the sacrifice is by way of
write off of the past interest dues, the asset should continue to be treated as sub-
standard.
The sub-standard accounts at 6.2 (a), (b) and (c) above, which have been subjected to
restructuring, etc. whether in respect of principal instalment or interest amount, by whatever
modality, would be eligible to be upgraded to the standard category only after the specified
period, i.e., a period of one year after the date when first payment of interest or of principal,whichever is earlier, falls due, subject to satisfactory performance during the period. The
8/6/2019 NPA Assignment
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/npa-assignment 8/13
amount of provision made earlier, net of the amount provided for the sacrifice in the interest
amount in present value terms as aforesaid, could also be reversed after the one-year period.
6.3 During this one-year period, the sub-standard asset will not deteriorate in its classification
if satisfactory performance of the account is demonstrated during the period. In case,
however, the satisfactory performance during the one year period is not evidenced, the assetclassification of the restructured account would be governed as per the applicable prudential
norms with reference to the pre-restructuring payment schedule.
6.4 The asset classification under CDR would continue to be bank-specific based on record
of recovery of each bank, as per the existing prudential norms applicable to banks.
7. Disclosure
Banks should also disclose in their published Annual Accounts, under the "Notes on
Accounts", the following information in respect of CDR undertaken during the year :
Total amount of loan assets subjected to restructuring under CDR.
The amount of standard assets subjected to CDR.
The amount of sub-standard assets subjected to CDR.
Process of CDR
A number of companies are now taking a good look at business debt restructuring to resolve
their unmet financial obligations. This is often a preferable solution to bankruptcy probably
because it is less expensive and more discreet. But just like bankruptcy, company debt
restructuring involves a systematic process.
The consultation process Because business debt restructuring is nothing but an
aggregate loan agreement, the lender seeks a series of consultation sessions with
the borrower. During these meetings, the lender assesses the company's overall
financial situation. It is at this point that all the company's financial obligations
are evaluated against the expected regular cash flow. Primarily because of this,
small business debt restructuring works differently than that of a big corporate
account.
The negotiation process. Once the assessment procedure is finished, the lender
then settles an agreement with all the borrower's creditors and vendors. The mainidea is to arrive at a solution that is acceptable to all the parties involved. When
that is achieved, the lender can proceed to implement the solution agreed upon.
The liquidation of assets. The liquidation of the business's assets, if found to be
necessary by all parties concerned, is the next step in the process. In some cases,
restructuring your existing debt may require you to pay a large amount of money
up front. If your lender can't cover that, you have no other choice but to liquidate
some assets. But most of the time, the liquidation strategy is only used to get the
profitability of the business back.
The restructuring process starts. This is the step where the contract is signed
and the agreement is enforced. The borrower, and in this case the business, agreeto the aggregate loan amount and to other details including the monthly payment
8/6/2019 NPA Assignment
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/npa-assignment 9/13
obligation, the interest rate, and the term of payment. After everything is
accounted for, the business is now officially under a debt-restructuring program is
expected to make payments as stipulated. This is the last level of debt help
available to the business before a filing for bankruptcy.
These are the steps involved in a business debt restructuring procedure. Simple as it mayseem, businesses should not leap into the plan immediately without careful consideration.
Company debt restructuring is a process that has to be critically evaluation to ensure the
ultimate fate of the business involved
ADVANTAGES
The primary advantages of debt restructuring involve matters of control and overall
creditworthiness.
Allows a business to gain control of its finances. With business debt restructuring,
debts carrying a high interest rate can be transferred to another lender with a lower
rate and potentially a prolonged payment term so that the monthly obligation isreduced.
Improves credit score. Businesses have credit scores too. If restructuring is performed
properly, it can actually improve those scores after a period of time. Restructuring
your existing debt ensures easier debt payments. When debts are paid regularly and
on time, good credit scores result.
Engages the help of third party. With intervention of third party financial institutions,
thereby processing large enterprise or small business debt restructuring, everything
flows more smoothly and the business owner is relieved of much of the stress of debt
management.
DISADVANTAGES
The primary drawbacks to debt restructuring involve the availability of new lines of credit
and overall business image.
Places a hold on new credit applications. While business debt restructuring is
underway, the first reaction of the creditors is to hold all applications for new credit to
ensure that the borrower pays the existing obligations regularly after the whole
restructuring process is enforced.
It won't look good to the public. If the corporate house chooses to restructure its debts
and the information leaks out to customers, they may assume that the corporate
houses are having problems with their finances or that they are close to bankruptcy.The customers could start looking for a more stable company to deal with.

banking sector of having a serious problem due non performing. The financial
reforms have helped largely to clean NPA was around Rs. 52,000 crores in the
year 2004. The earning capacity and profitability of the bank are highly affected
due to this
An asset becomes NPA when it ceases to generate income for the bank. This wouldmean that interest, which is debited to borrower’s account, has to be realised by thebank. An account has to be classified as NPA on the basis of record of recoveryrather than security charged in favour of the bank in respect of such account. Thus,an account of a borrower may become NPA if interest charged to that particularborrower is not realised despite the account being fully secured.Identification Of Account As NPAA non-performing asset (NPA) is a loan or an advance where;
interest and/ or installment of principal remain overdue for a period of morethan 90 days in respect of a term loan
the account remains ‘out of order’ in respect of an Overdraft/Cash Credit(OD/CC)
the bill remains overdue for a period of more than 90 days in the case of billspurchased and discounted
a loan granted for short duration crops will be treated as NPA, if theinstallment of principal or interest thereon remains overdue for two cropseasons.
a loan granted for long duration crops will be treated as NPA, if theinstallment of principal or interest thereon remains overdue for one cropseason.
In case of any other credit facility, if the amount to be received remainsoverdue for more than 90 days, then the account will be classified as NPA.
Out of order
the outstanding balance remains continuously in excess of the sanctionedlimit/drawing power.
In cases where the outstanding balance in the principal operating account isless than the sanctioned limit/drawing power,but there are no creditscontinuously for 90 days as on the date of Balance Sheet or credits are notenough to cover the interest debited during the same period.
Over dueAny amount due to the bank under any credit facility is overdue if it is not paid onthe due date fixed by the bank.

In respect of agricultural advances as well as advances for other purposesgranted by banks to ceded PACS (Primary agricultural credit society)/ FSS
(Farmers Service Society) under the on-lending system, only that particularcredit facility granted to PACS/FSS which is in default will be classified as NPAand not all the credit facilities sanctioned to a PACS/FSS. The other directloans & advances, if any, granted by the bank to the member borrower of aPACS/ FSS outside the on-lending arrangement will become NPA even if one of the credit facilities granted to the same borrower becomes NPA.
The credit facilities backed by guarantee of the Central Government thoughoverdue may be treated as NPA only when the Government repudiates itsguarantee when invoked.
Prudential normsIncome recognition
Income from non-performing assets (NPA) is not recognised on accrual basisbut is booked as income only when it is actually received.
Interest on advances against term deposits, NSCs, IVPs, KVPs and Life policiesmay be taken to income account on the due date, provided adequate marginis available in the accounts
Fees and commissions earned by the banks as a result of re-negotiations orrescheduling of outstanding debts should be recognised on an accrual basisover the period of time covered by the re-negotiated or rescheduledextension of credit.
Any subsequent recovery in NPA a/c should first be appropriate towardsinterest arrears & balance, if any, to principal.

Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR)
Capital adequacy ratio is the ratio which determines the capacity of a bank in
terms of meeting the time liabilities and other risk such as credit risk, marketrisk, operational risk, and others. It is a measure of how much capital is used to
support the banks' risk assets.
All bank must kept the minimum standard set by the Bank for International
Settlements (BIS) is 8% (comprising 4% each of Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital).
Tier one capital is the capital in the bank's balance sheet that can
absorb losses without a bank being required to cease trading.
Tier two capital can absorb losses in the event of a winding-up and so
provides a lesser degree of protection to depositors.
Exposure Norms
An exposure norm indicates the financing limit of the banks, which is depending
upon capital having by banks.
As per Exposure Norms, banks mustn’t give more than:
15% of paid-up capital to individual,
50% to group and
60% for infrastructure.
