Financial Institution in India
Finance has been called the science of money. It studies the principals and methods of
obtaining the control of money from those who have saved it and of administering it by thoseinto whose control it passes. Finance is the process of conversion of accumulated funds to
productive use.
Finance is an essence of industrial system, as well as finance factor is the circulatory system of
economy development as it directs the flow of economy and facilitates smooth functioning.
The financial institutions are created with the objective of smoothing and enhancing the process
of economic development.
Therefore, they have been given specific objectives such as:
To insure availability of finance in backward areas for equitable economic growth. For social upliftment and non-profit maximization as they have been constituted as public
corporations under special act or parliament.
To help rehabilitate and revive sick industries modernize and expand the existing ones. To keep a close liaison with other government agencies to help in the growth of priority
sector.
The first term lending institution was industrial financial corporation (IFC), established 1948,
jointly owned by government of India, RBI and Financial Institutions.
The aim was to make long term credit available to public limited companies and industrial co-
operatives. The establishment of FIs and state level was started by Tamiladu government as
Tamilnadu Industrial Investment Corporation in 1949. The GOI enacted the State Industrial
Corporation Act, 1951 which came into effect in 1952. They were supposed to supplement the
working of IFC which specifically met the financial requirement or the public limited company
and co-operative societies.
State Financial Corporation
A single corporation cannot be expected to meet the varied the financial requirements of
diversified small and medium scale industries. The union parliament passed the SFC act on
September 28, 1951 empowering the state government to establish financial corporations for
their respective regions. The state government, RBI, IDBI through mutual consultations shapes

the overall policy and functioning of these corporations. On feb.16, 1976 the entire holdings on
SFCs shares were transferred and vested in IDBI. As the volume of business enlarged, SFCs
source of finance become issue of bonds in market and reference from IDBI.
SFCs provide financial assistance of following types:
Granting loss of advances or subscribing to debentures of industrial concerns. Guaranteeing loans raised by industrial concerns on such terms and conditions as may be
mutually agreed upon.
Underwriting stock, share, bonds and debentures.With rapid growth of SFCs operation their reliance on IDBI for financial support has increased
significantly. Therefore a brief introduction of IDBI become necessary here, industrial
development bank of India (IDBI) was set up as the apex development bank of the country. Main
objective was the coordinate the activities of the other financial institutions including banks,
providing terms finance to industry as well as to provide direct financial assistance to industrialunits to bridge gap between the supply of and demand for medium and long term finance. IDBI
was made as an autonomous corporation fully owned by government of India on Feb. 16, 1976.
The operation of IDBI falls into two categories:
Assistance to other financial institutions. Direct assistance to industrial concerns either on its own or in participation with other
institutions.
Along with this, the bank can undertake promotional activities such as marketing andinvestment research and survey as well as techno-economic studies.

Project Appraisal Norms at RFC
Project appraisal is basically an art. Though the basic constituents of appraisal are fairly well
known a good appraisal officer can not only identify weakness in a project but can also play an
important and constructive role by suggesting ways and means to improve the viability of
project. Although the extent of indepthness of project depends very much on the size of theproject as well as the extent of our assistance (so far as RFC concerned), the basic parameters of
appraisal remain more or less the same. Appraisal officers are well aware of the techniques of
appraisal. The idea here is to highlight the key parameters of consolidate important instructions
having direct bearing on project appraisal.
Part I - Prima Facie Eligibility
To see that our time is not wasted unnecessarily on a case which ultimately may not be cleared,
the appraisal officer is first required to segregate those cases which are prime-facie not eligible
for financial assistance. The appraisal officer should first satisfy himself:
Whether the applicant is an industrial concern as defined under section 2(c) of the SFCs act. Whether the applicant in any way attracts restrictive provisions of SFCs act. Whether industry is not to be encouraged within the frame work of corporations financing. Whether the project is eligible for refinance. Promoters are not black listed as per details given in schedule.What is an industrial concern:
Section 2(c) of SFCs act, 1951 (as amended by SFC act, 2000) which define industrial concern
is reproduced below:-

Setting up technical institution such as schools, colleges etc. remain outside the purview
of definition of industrial concern and hence are not permitted for financing by SFCs.
d. Financing of vehicles is permitted only when the vehicles from part of the original cost ofan industrial concern. The acquisition of vehicles by industrial concerns after the scheme
has been implemented or by professionals like doctors, lawyers, engineers, architects for
their personal use for discharging their services would continue to remain outside the

Once it has been decided that prima facie the project is eligible for consideration of financial
assistance from RFC, detailed appraisal should be taken up. The procedures to be observed in
appraising the case are discussed in the following paras:-
While different authorities may adopt different terminology and sequences for formulating
appraisal criteria; the following constitutes the main aspect to be looked into in any case to
complete the appraisal:-
Management and organizational set-up Technical feasibility Cost of project Sources of finance Market and scope Cost of Production and Profitability Social economic viability

The methodology to be followed/adopted in and importance of each of above aspect are therefore
outlined below:-
Management and organizational set-up
Man makes a project and he operates it. The success of a project, therefore, dependslargely on the man behind it. A bad project cannot be made good but a good project can
be badly managed. Therefore, while processing the project one should lay considerable
stress on the entrepreneurial and managerial aspects of the project.
Usually following methods are employed in assessment of managerial attributes:-
1. Personal interview/discussions with promoters =Personal interview/discussions
with promoters give adequate material to assess the resourcefulness, the managerial capability,
integrity and above all the extent of interest of the promoter in project. His outlook, his attitude
towards risk taking, his temperament initiative drive and adaptability, his knowledge andexperience and his personality also would throw light on his successfully implementing the
project. The form of IPC/PCC should, therefore, be extensively used in assessing this aspect. The
promoters should be associated during detailed discussions on the project also.
2. Record of their past performance :-i. in the case of promoters already engaged in trade and industry, The record of their
past performance as indicated in their financial statements of accounts provide a
reasonable guide. With this end in view, it has been prescribed to collect the
following documents from the entrepreneurs:-
a. Balance sheet and profit & lose account of the concern if already inexistence.
b. balance sheet and profit & lose account of the concern in which promotersare interested as proprietor/partner/directors (for atleast three years)
c. Income tax assessment orders of the promoters and persons who proposeto contribute to the capital.
d. Details of networth of the promoters in the prescribed format.e. Affidavit on the financial assistance obtained by the promoters form other
financial institution.
f. Details of immovable properties acquired by the promoters along with thecopies of legally admissible documents of the title on the basis of which
ownership has been claimed.
ii. the analysis of balance sheets of sister concern should be made in prescribed formwhile examining the balance sheet in turnover, profits, cash accruals, formation of
capital and reserves, withdrawals of funds loans and advances should be looked
into with care, depending upon the interest of the promoters in the concern. the
promoters deemed to the responsible for sickness of existing unit should not have

by the same promoter except in special circumstances.
