About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

FAST ANSWER QUESTIONS (FAQrsquoS)1 Which type of borrowers can be covered under the Scheme

New and existing Micro and Small Enterprises engaged in manufacturing or service activity excluding Retail Trade

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

2 Whether borrowers from all service sector enterprises are eligible under the Scheme

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

5 Is guarantee benefit available to existing units of a lending institution which has become a MLI of CGTMSE

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

2 Whether borrowers from all service sector enterprises are eligible under the Scheme

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

5 Is guarantee benefit available to existing units of a lending institution which has become a MLI of CGTMSE

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA

39

FAST ANSWER QUESTIONS (FAQrsquoS)1 Which type of borrowers can be covered under the Scheme

New and existing Micro and Small Enterprises engaged in manufacturing or service activity excluding Retail Trade

2 Whether borrowers from all service sector enterprises are eligible under the Scheme

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

5 Is guarantee benefit available to existing units of a lending institution which has become a MLI of CGTMSE

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA

39

FAST ANSWER QUESTIONS (FAQrsquoS)1 Which type of borrowers can be covered under the Scheme

New and existing Micro and Small Enterprises engaged in manufacturing or service activity excluding Retail Trade

2 Whether borrowers from all service sector enterprises are eligible under the Scheme

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

5 Is guarantee benefit available to existing units of a lending institution which has become a MLI of CGTMSE

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

39

2 Whether borrowers from all service sector enterprises are eligible under the Scheme

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

5 Is guarantee benefit available to existing units of a lending institution which has become a MLI of CGTMSE

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

5 Is guarantee benefit available to existing units of a lending institution which has become a MLI of CGTMSE

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

6 Is it necessary that a borrower to be eligible should obtain all the required credit facilities from a single institution

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

Yes joint financing by a financial institution (eg SIDBI NSIC) and Commercial bank can be covered under the scheme For eg MSE unit is financed by term loan from State financial institution and Working capital from a commercial bank

8 Whether credit facility extended to self-help group can be covered under the schemeNo At present as per the Scheme the credit facility extended to Self Help Group cannot be covered

41

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA

Eligible Lending InstitutionsAll scheduled commercial banks and specified Regional Rural Banks NSIC SIDBI which have entered into an agreement with the Trust for the purpose The eligible lending Institutions on entering with an agreement with CGTMSE become Member Lending Institutions (MLIs) of CGTMSE

Rehabilitation AssistanceFor the unit covered under CGTMSE and becoming sick due to factors beyond the control of management assistance for rehabilitation extended by the lender could also be covered under the scheme provided the overall assistance is within the credit capital of Rs100 lakh

39

Non-EligibilityAny facility given on the basis of collateral security or third party guarantee shall be disqualified for coverage under the scheme The Trust also reserves the right to reject any application for the guarantee cover if it deems necessary

FAST ANSWER QUESTIONS (FAQrsquoS)1 Which type of borrowers can be covered under the Scheme

New and existing Micro and Small Enterprises engaged in manufacturing or service activity excluding Retail Trade

2 Whether borrowers from all service sector enterprises are eligible under the Scheme

As of now all activities that come under service sector as per RBIs guidelines on Lending to Priority Sector and MSMED Act 2006 except retail trade are eligible for coverage under the scheme

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

5 Is guarantee benefit available to existing units of a lending institution which has become a MLI of CGTMSE

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

39

FAST ANSWER QUESTIONS (FAQrsquoS)1 Which type of borrowers can be covered under the Scheme

New and existing Micro and Small Enterprises engaged in manufacturing or service activity excluding Retail Trade

2 Whether borrowers from all service sector enterprises are eligible under the Scheme

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

5 Is guarantee benefit available to existing units of a lending institution which has become a MLI of CGTMSE

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

FAST ANSWER QUESTIONS (FAQrsquoS)1 Which type of borrowers can be covered under the Scheme

New and existing Micro and Small Enterprises engaged in manufacturing or service activity excluding Retail Trade

2 Whether borrowers from all service sector enterprises are eligible under the Scheme

As of now all activities that come under service sector as per RBIs guidelines on Lending to Priority Sector and MSMED Act 2006 except retail trade are eligible for coverage under the scheme

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

5 Is guarantee benefit available to existing units of a lending institution which has become a MLI of CGTMSE

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

41

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

40

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA

39

FAST ANSWER QUESTIONS (FAQrsquoS)1 Which type of borrowers can be covered under the Scheme

New and existing Micro and Small Enterprises engaged in manufacturing or service activity excluding Retail Trade

2 Whether borrowers from all service sector enterprises are eligible under the Scheme

As of now all activities that come under service sector as per RBIs guidelines on Lending to Priority Sector and MSMED Act 2006 except retail trade are eligible for coverage under the scheme

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

5 Is guarantee benefit available to existing units of a lending institution which has become a MLI of CGTMSE

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

FAST ANSWER QUESTIONS (FAQrsquoS)1 Which type of borrowers can be covered under the Scheme

New and existing Micro and Small Enterprises engaged in manufacturing or service activity excluding Retail Trade

2 Whether borrowers from all service sector enterprises are eligible under the Scheme

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

5 Is guarantee benefit available to existing units of a lending institution which has become a MLI of CGTMSE

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

FAST ANSWER QUESTIONS (FAQrsquoS)1 Which type of borrowers can be covered under the Scheme

New and existing Micro and Small Enterprises engaged in manufacturing or service activity excluding Retail Trade

2 Whether borrowers from all service sector enterprises are eligible under the Scheme

As of now all activities that come under service sector as per RBIs guidelines on Lending to Priority Sector and MSMED Act 2006 except retail trade are eligible for coverage under the scheme

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

5 Is guarantee benefit available to existing units of a lending institution which has become a MLI of CGTMSE

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

5 Is guarantee benefit available to existing units of a lending institution which has become a MLI of CGTMSE

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

About Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)

ObjectiveAvailability of bank credit without the hassles of collaterals third party guarantees would be a major source of support to the first generation entrepreneurs to realise their dream of setting up a unit of their own Micro and Small Enterprise (MSE) Keeping this objective in view Ministry of Micro Small amp Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India launched Credit Guarantee Scheme (CGS) so as to strengthen credit delivery system and facilitate flow of credit to the MSE sector To operationalise the scheme Government of India and SIDBI set up the Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE)The main objective is that the lender should give importance to project viability and secure credit facility purely on the primary security of the assets financed The other objective is that the lender availing guarantee facility should endeavour to give composite credit to the borrowers so that the borrowers obtain both term loan and working capital facilities from a single agency The Credit Guarantee scheme (CGS) seeks to reassure the lender that in the event of a MSE unit which availed collateral free credit facilities fails to discharge its liabilities to the lender the Guarantee Trust would make good the loss incurred by the lender up to 75 80 85 per cent of the credit facility

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

FAST ANSWER QUESTIONS (FAQrsquoS)1 Which type of borrowers can be covered under the Scheme

New and existing Micro and Small Enterprises engaged in manufacturing or service activity excluding Retail Trade

2 Whether borrowers from all service sector enterprises are eligible under the Scheme

As of now all activities that come under service sector as per RBIs guidelines on Lending to Priority Sector and MSMED Act 2006 except retail trade are eligible for coverage under the scheme

40

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

5 Is guarantee benefit available to existing units of a lending institution which has become a MLI of CGTMSE

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

3 Whether loans given to Small Road Transport Operators are eligible for coverage under the Scheme

Yes Small road and water transport loans are eligible for guarantee cover

4 Is it compulsory for the borrower to obtain Income Tax Permanent Account Number [IT-PAN] to be an eligible borrower

Under the Guarantee Scheme a borrower is required to obtain IT PAN number prior to availing of credit facility from the eligible lending institution Also it is a mandatory requirement under section 139A(5) read with section 272(C) of the IT Act 1961 to indicate IT PAN on all tax documents which include returns challans appeals etc However in respect of loans up to Rs 10 lakh CGTMSE is presently not insisting that the IT PAN be obtained at the time of availing of the guarantee cover IT Pan No is to be indicated in respect of credit facility above Rs10 lakh Nevertheless the MLIs have been advised to inform their borrowers to apply for IT PAN number It is desirable to indicate IT Pan No in all the application irrespective of the amount

5 Is guarantee benefit available to existing units of a lending institution which has become a MLI of CGTMSE

In case of existing units additional credit facilities in the form of term loan or renewal of working capital facilities can be covered as and when the facilities are extended provided no collateral security and or third party guarantee is obtained Part of the credit facility with collateral and part of the facility without collateral for guarantee cover would not be entertained if it is considered as a composite credit

6 Is it necessary that a borrower to be eligible should obtain all the required credit facilities from a single institution

Yes all credit facilities should be made available from a single institution Credit facilities extended jointly by two or more banks to a single borrower or credit facilities extended jointly by two or more institutions to a single borrower shall not be eligible for guarantee cover Since the quantum of credit facility is low it is expected that a single lender extend investment credit working capital and any incremental working capital required by the borrower However CGTMSE coverage is available in respect of credit facility extended by a commercial bank and SIDBI out of SIDBIs Micro and Small Enterprises Fund for North Eastern Region (NER)

7 Co-financing to a MSE unit by Financial Institution with a Commercial Bank can be covered under the Scheme

Yes joint financing by a financial institution (eg SIDBI NSIC) and Commercial bank can be covered under the scheme For eg MSE unit is financed by term loan from State financial institution and Working capital from a commercial bank

8 Whether credit facility extended to self-help group can be covered under the schemeNo At present as per the Scheme the credit facility extended to Self Help Group cannot be covered

41

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

CLAIMS SETTLEMENT

Prior to lender (also referred to as MLI) preferring any claim on the Trust there shall be a lock-in-period of 18 months from either the date of last disbursement of loan to the borrower or the date of the guarantee cover coming into force in respect of the particular credit facility whichever is later The lender shall however prefer a claim on the defaulted account which has become NPA immediately after recall of loan and initiation of recovery proceedings by way of legal action as specified by the Trust from time to time The Trust shall honour 75 per cent of the guaranteed portion in default subject to maximum of 75 per cent of the guaranteed cap amount (85 for select category of borrowers) immediately on preferring of claim by the lender The balance 25 per cent of the defaults or guaranteed cap amount as the case may be will be paid on conclusion of recovery proceedings by the lender

Lenders responsibilities

The lender shall evaluate the loan applications and conduct the account of the borrowers with normal banking prudence and shall use their business discretion in selecting commercially viable proposals This includes closely monitoring the account as also safeguarding the primary securities taken in good and enforceable condition In order to ensure continuance of guarantee cover MLI concerned should pay the annual service fee to CGTMSE latest by 31st May of every year The lender should ensure that the claim is filed within the prescribed time limit and there is no delay on the part of lender to notify the defaults which result in Trust facing a higher claim

The payment of claim by the Trust under question does not in any way take away the responsibility of the borrower to repay the entire amount of outstanding to the lender The lender shall exercise all caution and maintain its recourse to the borrower for full amount owed by him and effective action for recovering the amount including such action as may be suggested by the Trust

Appropriation of Residual Recovery

In case of default the lenders would exercise the right to takeover the assets However the Trust would have the priority in appropriation of sale of assets by the lenders before making the final settlement of the claim Therefore the amount realised from the sale of assets (residual recovery) must first be credited in full by the lenders to the Trust before they can finally claim the remaining 25 per cent of the default guaranteed capital amount

Claim Application [to be submitted by MLI]

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

customers to visit Regional Office

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

STRATEGYFocus on increasing Rural Business at Identified 1000 Rural and Semi Urban Branches

Each Rural Branch- To achieve a minimum growth of 30 in Agricultural Advances

Bank has appointed over 600 Rural Development Officers (RDOs) for focused lending under agriculture and mobilization of low cost deposits To implement performance monitoring system for RDOs

To finance at least 100 new farmers by each RuralSemi Urban branch amp to process 2-3 new investment credit proposals and open minimum 250 accounts of new households

Direct Agriculture advances should be minimum 135 of ANBC as per RBI norms while our expected achievement for FY10 is only 113 The Bank needs to step it up to 135 by March 2012 Thus we have set direct agriculture target to be 123 of ANBC for Mar 11

To revisit organization structure and monitoring system at Central Office and plan to ensure achievement of agriculture credit target

Special Agriculture Credit Plan To provide special attention to Investment credit disbursement

DRI AdvancesThe prescribed benchmark is 1 of Total Advances outstanding as at the end of the previousyear DRI scheme being a niche scheme for the benefit of the poorweaker sections of thesociety and its revised income criteria and quantum of loan - each branch to explore possiblefinancing of at least 10 proposals per quarter The existing top-up loans under Indira AwasYojna(IAY) should also boost DRI Advances

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition

CASE STUDY58

This case study is related to the shifting of Regional Office of Union Bank Of India from Upper Bazaar to Kantatoli which was shifted to present place on 9 th March 2009 Employees had faced many problems while shifting from one place to another The problems which they were facing in Upper Bazaar is that the office was very far from the main market in that place and it was very difficult to access the market from that place The office was in a narrow lane But they also faced many problems because of lack of manpower space utilisation etcThe main benefit they have got is that now the office is situated at a good place having a good infrastructure They have solved all the problems related to proper documentation Many people has been recruited in order to deal with lack of manpower problem Its become easy for employees to access the market and customers can also easily find out the office to get the solution of all the problems

WEAKNESS amp THREATS OF THE OLD PLACE FOR REGIONAL OFFICE

It is the Bank of first choice for Customers the Brand Union Bank of India is the bank that1 Listens amp renders assurance2 Is accessible3 Is transparent4 Is Partner in progress of country5 Is actively engaged in social wellbeing

The best finding is the rebranding work done in Union Bank of India The new logo consists of one U in red colour and another inverted U in blue colour which reminds me one of the concepts in strategy ie Blue Ocean strategy As per this concept market place is divided into 2 types of ocean One is Red Ocean which is very alive and competitive It is the place where many players fight for the market share Another is Blue Ocean which is unexplored and can be explored through innovation and by providing value added services to the customers In this market there is huge potential to make any organisation profitable So here the logo of Union Bank Of India reminds us that as they are going to provide the old services On the other hand they will use innovation as there tool to explore the Blue Ocean

As per the bank explanation

61

Blue Color signifies Blue Ocean Strategy Market that can be explored through innovation

Red Color signifies Red Ocean Strategy Present market where competition is prevailing

This new logo is a unique representation of a universal symbol It comprises two initial letters lsquoUrsquo of Union Bank Of India interlocked into one another This is called as Union Bank Interlock The symbol weaves around the word lsquoUnionrsquo from the brand name itself It symbolises integrity security strength and partnership While keeping the existing values and the brand promise of lsquoGood people to bank withrsquo intact the new symbol rises levels ahead to reinforce the properties of partnership amp bonding

The colours lsquoRedrsquo and lsquoBluersquo have been carefully chosen to bring out the values of the symbol in the best possible way While Red is the colour of energy strength power and determination Blue is symbolic of trust loyalty wisdom confidence responsibility and faith Red when used with Blue creates a high impact vibrant design a must for the very purpose of a noticeable change in the brand identity

SUGGESTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

62

Proper training should be given to fresherrsquos of every department in order to develop the functions of this organisation So that they can feel comfortable with the working environment of the bank

The functions should be more advance to compete with the private sector banks otherwise it will be difficult for this bank to beat the private sectors banks in competition

In my opinion this bank should involve the concept of Financial Advisor for the development of themselves as well as to improve their image towards their customers

There is a problem of manpower in most of the branches of Union Bank which hinders the growth and affects the relationship between bank and the customers So here I suggest to increase the manpower so that they can deal with the problem of manpower crunch which will improve the performance and the relationship of bank in turn increase the profitability of this bank

To recruit more and more qualified people to develop and change the work culture of this organisation So that this bank can also cope up with the changes in the market rapidly

There should be more technology advancement in the working of the bank to reduce the problem of paper wastage This can be done by using more numbers of computers and hard disk to store the data (paperless system)

There is some problem with the house keeping at Union Bank Of India So I recommend to take initiative to improve the condition
