4 I. THE PROPOSED PROGRAM 1. The proposed Second West Bengal Development Finance Program seeks to facilitate the continuation of a comprehensive fiscal consolidation program in West Bengal initiated in This will generate fiscal savings and thereby assist West Bengal to augment growth-enhancing development financing and improve the delivery of public services. The impact of the program will be improved accessibility, quality, and affordability of public services. The outcome of the program will be improved and sustained investment in the state, particularly in the social and economic sectors. 1 The program has three output areas: (i) expenditure rationalization efforts accelerated, (ii) facilitation of private investment improved, and (iii) revenue administration strengthened. 2. Based on the development financing requirements of the policy reform program, the Government of India has requested a regular loan of $300 million from the Asian Development Bank s (ADB s) ordinary capital resources to help finance the program. The loan will have a 15-year term, including a grace period of 3 years, an annual interest rate determined in accordance with ADB s London interbank offered rate (LIBOR)-based lending facility, a commitment charge of 0.15% per year, and such other terms and conditions as set forth in the draft loan and program agreements. There is no maturity premium payable to ADB. The Government of India will relend to the Government of West Bengal (GOWB) the local currency generated from the proceeds of the total loan amount in accordance with its arrangement for transfer of external assistance to GOWB. Two tranches of $150 million each are envisaged, with the first tranche disbursed upon loan effectiveness, and the second tranche 22 months after the first tranche, or earlier. 3. At the request of the Government of India, ADB will provide the borrower with an option to request disbursement in Indian rupees (INR) for either or both of the tranches under the Second West Bengal Development Finance Program. In effect, withdrawals under either or both of the tranches may be made in INR or United States dollar (USD), on terms and conditions as set forth in the draft loan and program agreements. The tenor and grace period of the INR portion of the loan will match that of the USD loan, and will have a 15-year term, including a grace period of 3 years. The local currency financing option is at the discretion of the borrower. It can choose not to exercise it. At the same time, ADB has provided this option to the borrower on a best efforts basis. II. THE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE A. Justification 4. The proposed transaction technical assistance (TRTA) is being processed at the request of the Department of Finance, GOWB to support the Second West Bengal Development Finance Program. The results framework, implementation arrangements, cost estimate, and terms of reference of the TRTA were discussed with GOWB during the fact-finding mission and updated during the pre-loan negotiations mission. 5. The rationale of the second program is to cover a comprehensive reform plan for developing the state s finances combined with an investment component that provides viability gap funding to finance public private partnership infrastructure projects. The primary outcome of the TRTA is strong GOWB institutions that are responsible for reform programs across various 1 The design and monitoring framework is in Appendix 1 of the Report and Recommendation of the President.

Outputs and Activities 6. An assessment of the institutional capacity of the GOWB was carried out for the second program. The proposed TRTA will enhance capacity in the following areas: 7. Output 1: Revenue administration strengthened. The TRTA will support the GOWB in (i) implementation of the goods and services tax; (ii) implementation of a supply chain management system in state excise, and (iii) strengthening of the property registration system. 8. Output 2: Project appraisal and monitoring capacity strengthened. The TRTA will train and assist the Fiscal Policy and Management Unit in project appraisal and monitoring. 9. Output 3: Medium-term expenditure frameworks developed. Support will be provided to update the medium-term expenditure frameworks prepared under the first program, and link the updated frameworks with actual budget allocations for FY Output 4: West Bengal Investment and Infrastructure Development Fund (WBIIDF) operationalized. Technical support will be provided to support and build capacity of the FPMU staff to select, structure, and develop the public private partnership projects that will be provided viability gap funding under the second program. 11. Output 5: Internal audit strengthened. The TRTA will help strengthen the internal audit department within the Finance Department, including the introduction of a risk-based audit manual. C. Cost and Financing 12. The TRTA is estimated to cost $600,000, of which $500,000 will be financed on a grant basis by ADB s Technical Assistance Special Fund (TASF-other sources). The GOWB will provide counterpart staff remuneration, office accommodation and supplies, local transport, other logistical support, and other in-kind contributions. The key expenditure items are listed in Appendix 1. The GOWB was informed that approval of the TRTA does not commit ADB to finance any ensuing project. D. Implementation Arrangements 13.
