The following pages deal with the analysis of various type of loans of the TNSC Bank. 100

5.7 TOTAL LOANS The total loans provided by the TNSC Bank during the years from 2002 to 2012 are presented in Table 5.2. TABLE 5.4 Total Loans Issued by the TNSC Bank From 2002 to 2012 (Rs. in Crores) Percentage Year Ended Increase / Total Loans Increase / March Decrease Decrease 2002 1938.23 - - 2003 1925.82 (-) 12.41 (-) 0.64 2004 2427.49 501.67 26.05 2005 2823.31 395.82 16.31 2006 3040.71 217.40 7.70 2007 3242.96 202.25 6.65 2008 3336.26 93.30 2.88 2009 3296.01 (-) 40.25 (-) 1.21 2010 4599.41 1303.40 39.54 2011 6798.78 2199.37 47.82 2012 7538.78 740.00 10.88 Source: Compiled from the Annual Reports of TNSC Bank from 2002 to 2012. It is inferred from Table 5.4 that the total loans issued by the TNSC Bank which stood at Rs.1938.23 Crores in 2002 have steadily increased to Rs.7538.78 crores in 2012 except during the years 2003 and 2009. In the years 2003 and 2009, the total loans have declined when compared to their respective previous years due to the problem of overdues and drought conditions in the state. There is more than three-fold increase in the total loans issued by the TNSC Bank during the year 2012 when compared to 2002. The percentage increase in the total loans 101

during the period under study varied between minus 0.64 per cent and 47.82 per cent. 5.8 CLASSIFICATION OF TOTAL LOANS The total loans of the Tamil Nadu State Apex Cooperative Bank Limited have been broadly classified into three types, namely - 1. Short-term loans 2. Medium- term loans and 3. Long term loans. 5.8.1 Short-term Loans Until 1935, the Bank provided short-term loans to agriculture from its own funds. After the establishment of the Reserve Bank of India in 1935, it provided finance to state cooperative banks for their lending to agriculture. After the establishment of the National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD) in 1982, instead of Reserve Bank of India, NABARD provides funds to the state co-operative banks for their lending to agriculture and nonagricultural purposes. The TNSC Bank provides short-term loans to central cooperative banks in Tamil Nadu for the following purposes: 1. Crop loans for seasonal agricultural operations. 2. Short-term non-agricultural loans to a) Weavers cooperative societies. b) Jewel loans. 3. Cash credit to the following: a) Tamil Nadu Handloom Weavers Cooperative Society Limited (Co-optex). b) Tamil Nadu Cooperative State Agriculture and Rural Development Bank. c) Tamil Nadu Consumers Cooperative Federation Limited. d) Tamil Nadu Cooperative State Agriculture and Rural Development Bank Limited. 102

e) Tamil Nadu Industrial Cooperative Bank Limited. f) Tamil Nadu Small Industries Corporation Limited. g) Tamil Nadu Cooperative Marketing Federation Limited. h) Tamil Nadu Cooperative Housing Society Limited. 5.8.2 Medium-term Loans The provision of medium-term loans by the TNSC Bank on a systematic basis was taken up when the Reserve Bank of India came forward to finance the cooperatives for medium-term purposes during 1953-54 3. In July 1964, the TNSC Bank introduced the revolving credit system to central cooperative Banks in Tamil Nadu. Under this system, each central cooperative bank was sanctioned medium-term annual credit limits, from which reimbursements will be made for its lending. The TNSC Bank provides medium-term loans for agricultural and nonagricultural purposes for the following activities: 1. Land development purposes. 2. Minor irrigation. 3. Loans for subsidiary occupations. 4. Loans to the farmers for the purchase of shares in cooperative sugar and spinning mills. 5. NABARD approved employment oriented schemes such as sericulture development, calf rearing, sheep breading and the like. 6. IRDP Loans to weaker sections of the rural community 7. Loans under differential interest rate at 4 per cent to the weaker sections of the community. 8. Farm mechanization. 9. Organic farming. 10. Aromatic and medicinal plants. 11. Dry land farming. 12. Waste land development. 13. Self-help groups for farm and non-farm activities. 14. For establishing agricultural clinics and agri business centres. 103

15. For plantation and horticulture crops. 16. Employees societies and 17. Medium-term conversion loans. The medium-term loans are repayable in the three or five equal annual instalments. The first instalment will not fall due for repayment before the expiry of 15 months from the date of drawal of the loan 4. NABARD provides mediumterm credit limits to the TNSC Bank on behalf of the central cooperative Banks in Tamil Nadu. The central cooperative banks apply to the TNSC Bank for the sanction of medium-term loans. The loan applications of central banks are considered and sanctioned by the state co-operative bank. The central co-operative banks draw the loans, disburse the amount to the primary societies and then furnish a disbursement statement to the state co-operative bank 5. The Bank also provides medium-term non-agricultural loans under the following schemes: 1. Loans under differential interest rate scheme. 2. Self employment loans. 3. Loans to salaried employees and, 4. Loans for consumer durables and loans to employees. 5.8.3 Long-term Loans Even though the state cooperative banks were started to provided shortterm and medium-term credit to farmers, they also give long-term loans. Longterm loans are given for the following purposes: 1. Staff housing loan. 2. Cold storage construction and 3. Rural housing. 5.9 CLASSIFICATION OF TOTAL LOANS Table 5.3 reveals the classification of total loans of the TNSC Bank during the period from 2002 to 2012 104

It is inferred from Table 5.5 that the short-term loans issued by the Bank which stood at Rs.775.82 crores in 2002 have steadily increased to Rs.2673.78 crores, in 2012 resulting in more than three-fold increase. There is a decline in the short term loans issued during the years 2003 and 2007 due to overdues of cooperative banks on account of drought conditions in the state of Tamil Nadu. The share of short-term loans in the total loans of the Bank varied between 28.15 per cent and 40.03 per cent. There is a fluctuating trend in the share of short-term loans in the total loans of the Bank. Table 5.5 has also revealed that the share of medium-term loans in the total loans of the Bank which stood at Rs.138.73 crores in 2002 has increased to Rs.1317.36 crores in 2012 resulting in more than nine-fold increase. The medium term loans have a fluctuating trend during the period under study. The share of medium term loans in the total loans of the Bank varied between 7.16 per cent and 37.62 per cent. It is inferred from Table 5.5 that, the long-term loans issued by the Bank which stood at Rs.128 crores in 2002 have declined to Rs.21.51 crores in 2012. There is a steady decline in the share of long-term loans in the total loans of the Bank. The share of long-term loans in the total loans of the Bank varied between 0.26 per cent and 11.65 per cent. Table 5.5 has also revealed that, the other loans of the Bank such as cash credit, depositors loans, consumer loans', staff housing loans and the like which stood at Rs.895.68 crores in 2002 have increased to Rs.3526.13 crores in 2012, resulting in nearly four-fold increase. The share of other loans in the total loans of the Bank, varied between 31.77 per cent and 48.68 per cent. It clearly indicates that, the TNSC Bank's lending to individuals in Chennai city, amounts to nearly 50 per cent of the total loans. This has been due to its 45 branches functioning in Chennai city. This confirms that people in Chennai city patronize the Bank because of its better customer service. 106

The trend values of Short-term loans, medium-term loans, long-term loans, other loans and total loans have been estimated by using linear trend equation as stated below: Y t = a + bx where X = one year interval Y = Loans in crores of Rupees n = Number of years Y t = Computed trend figure for period x 'a' is the computed trend figure for the period when x = 0 in this case, the year 2007. 'b' is the slope of the trend line or the amount of change in y t loans per year change in x. The above trend equation has been estimated by the method of least squares. The values of 'a' and 'b' are given below a = b = ΣY where n = 11 years N ΣXY Σx 2 From the above equation, the projected trend figure for any year, can be obtained by substituting the appropriate values of x in to the trend equation. For example, for the year 2022, the value of x is 15. The data for eleven years have been utilized from Table 5.5 for calculating the trend values of loans. With the help of the above linear trend equation, the working of trend values for short-term loans, medium-term loans, long-term loans, other loans and total loans have been computed and it is presented in Tables 5.23 to 5.27. 130

5.15.6 Comparison of Trend Values of Loans The various types of loans have been analysed by comparing their trend values Table 5.28 reveals the trend values of all types of loans of the Bank. TABLE 5.28 Comparison of Trend Values for Various Types of Loans (Rs. in Crores) S.No. Loans Average Annual Growth 1. Short term Loans 164.46 2. Medium-term Loans 126.66 3. Long-term Loans (-) 23.32 Source: Compiled from Table 5.23, 5.24 and 5.25 Among the three types of loans, short-term loans have the highest annual growth, followed by medium-term loans. The long-term loans have negative growth since it is the least important loan in the Bank. 5.16 CORRELATION BETWEEN TOTAL DEPOSITS AND TOTAL LOANS In order to measure the degree of relationship between total deposits and total loans of the TNSC Bank, correlation coefficient has been computed. Table 5.28 reveals the correlation between the total deposits and total loans of the Bank during the period under study. 137

TABLE 5.29 Relationship of Total Deposits and Total Loans of TNSC Bank (Rs. in Crores) Year Ended March Total Deposits Total Loans 2002 2727 1938 2003 2924 1926 2004 3120 2427 2005 3063 2823 2006 3127 3041 2007 3264 3243 2008 3994 3336 2009 4429 3296 2010 5146 4599 2011 5436 6799 2012 6562 7539 Note: Figures have been rounded off to crores. Hypothesis Ho: There is no significant relationship between total deposits and total loans of the TNSC Bank TABLE 5.30 Correlation Between Total Deposits and Total Loans of TNSC Bank Correlations Total Deposit Total Loans Total Deposit Pearson Correlation 1.944** Sig. (2-tailed).000 N 11 11 Total Loans Pearson Correlation.944** 1 Sig. (2-tailed).000 N 11 11 **.Correlation is significant at the 0.01 level (2-tailed). 138

Table 5.30 reveals the correlation coefficient between total deposits and total loans of the Bank for the period from 2001-2002 to 2011-2012. It is observed from Table 5.30 that the P-value is less than 0.01. Therefore the null hypothesis is rejected at one per cent level of significance. Hence, it is concluded that, there is significant relationship between total deposits and total loans, of the Bank. It confirms that the increase in deposits will result in increase in loans of the Bank. 5.17 COMPARISON OF COMPOUND GROWTH RATES OF TNSC BANK FOR TWO PERIODS Comparison of Compound Annual Growth Rates of loans between the periods from 1975 to 1985 and 2002 to 2012. TABLE 5.31 Comparison of Compound Annual Growth Rates for Loans S.No. Types of Loans From 1975 to 1985 From 2002 to 2012 1. Short-term Loans 15.29 11.77 2. Medium term Loans (-) 3.57 22.45 3. Long-term Loans 19.04 85.17 * Source: V.Rengasami, "Performance Evaluation of Tamil Nadu State Cooperative Bank Limited" Unpublished Ph.D. Thesis, Madurai Kamaraj University 1987, p.147. Table 5.31 has revealed that the compound annual growth rate of Shortterm loans of TNSC Bank from 1975 to 1985 was 15.29 per cent where as, it is 11.77 per cent during the study period. The compound growth rates for shortterm loans during the study period is less when compared to 1975 to 1985. But, the compound growth rates of medium and long-term loans for the period from 2002 to 2012 is higher when compared to the period from 1975 to 1985. The TNSC Bank is mainly meant for providing short-term loans to farmers and it is lagging behind when compared to the period from 1975 to 1985. This has been due to the changing attitude of the farmers not to repay the loans because of the promises given by the political parties to write off the loans if they are voted to power in the state. This confirms poor performance in lending activities. 139
