Working capital

WORKING CAPITAL



Working capital, also known as net working capital, is the difference between a company’s current assets, like cash, accounts receivable (customers’ unpaid bills) and inventories of raw materials and finished goods, and current liabilities, like accounts payable.

Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities



The objective of running any industry is earning profits. An industry will require funds to

acquire “fixed assets” like land, building, plant, machinery, equipments, vehicles, tools etc.,

and also to run the business i.e. its day to day operations.

Funds required for day to-day working will be to finance production and sales. For

production, funds are needed for purchase of raw materials/stores/fuel, for employment of

labour, for power charges etc., for storing finished goods till they are sold out and for

financing the sales by way of sundry debtors/ receivables.

Capital or funds required for an industry can therefore be bifurcated as fixed capital and

working capital. Working capital in this context is the excess of current assets over current

liabilities. Current assets are those assets that in the ordinary course of business will be

converted into cash within a brief period (during the operating cycle of the industry and

normally not exceeding one year) without undergoing diminution in value and without

disrupting the operation. Current liabilities are those liabilities intended at their inception, to

be paid in the ordinary course of business within a reasonably short time (normally within a

year) out of the current assets or the income of the business. The above definition of

working capital, however, takes into account only the funds available to the industry from

long term sources like capital and long term borrowings, after meeting the expenses

towards fixed and other non-current assets. It does not represent the total funds required

by the industry for working capital to sustain its level of operations.

The excess of current assets over current liabilities is treated as net working capital or

liquid surplus and represents that portion of the working capital which has been provided

from the long term source. This can be explained by the following diagram.







Working Capital Assessment :

Concept of Working Capital: Working capital denotes the amount of funds needed for

meeting day-to-day operations of a concern.

This is related to short-term assets and short-term sources of financing. Hence it deals

with both, assets and liabilities

There are two concepts or senses used for working capital.

1. Gross Working Capital: The concept of gross working capital refers to the total

value of current assets. In other words, gross working capital is the total amount

available for financing of current assets. However, it does not reveal the true financial

position of an enterprise. How? A borrowing will increase current assets and, thus, will

increase gross working capital but, at the same time, it will increase current liabilities

also.

As a result, the net working capital will remain the same. This concept is usually

supported by the business community as it raises their assets (current) and is in their

advantage to borrow the funds from external sources such as banks and the financial

institutions.

In this sense, the working capital is a financial concept. As per this concept:

Gross Working Capital = Total Current Assets

2. Net working Capital: The net working capital is an accounting concept which

represents the excess of current assets over current liabilities. Current assets consist of

items such as cash, bank balance, stock, debtors, bills receivables, etc. and current

liabilities include items such as bills payables, creditors, etc. Excess of current assets

over current liabilities, thus, indicates the liquid position of an enterprise.

The ratio of 2:1 between current assets and current liabilities is considered as optimum

or sound. What this ratio implies is that the firm/ enterprise have sufficient liquidity to

meet operating expenses and current liabilities. It is important to mention that net

working capital will not increase with every increase in gross working capital.

Importantly, net working capital will increase only when there is increase in current

assets without corresponding increase in current liabilities.



Working Capital Gap :

Is defined as current assets minus current liabilities excluding bank borrowings. Current

assets will be taken at estimated values or values as per the tendon committee norms,

whichever is lower. Current assets will consist of inventory and receivables, referred as

chargeable current assets (CCA) and other current assets (OCA).

Maximum permissible bank finance (MPBF) in view of the above approach to bank



lending, the Tandon committee suggested the following three methods of determining

the permissible level of bank borrowings:

1. First method:- in the first method, the borrower will contribute 25 per cent of the

working capital gap; the remaining 75 per cent be financed from bank borrowings this

method will give a minimum current ratio of

2. Second method:- in the second method, the borrower will contribute 25 per cent of

the total current assets. The remaining of the working capital gap (the working capital

gap less the borrower‘s contribution) can be bridged from the bank borrowings. This

method will give a current ratio of .

3. Third method:- in the third method, borrower will contribute 100 percent of core

assets, as defined and 25 per cent of the balance of current assets. The remaining of

the working capital gap can be met from the borrowings. This method will further

strengthen the current ratio

Components of Working Capital: Three main components associated with

working capital management:

1. Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are revenues due – what is owed to a company by its customers

for sales made. Timely, efficient collection of accounts receivable is essential to a

company's smooth financial operation.

Accounts receivable are listed as assets on a company's balance sheet, but they are

not actually assets until they are collected. A common metric analysts use to assess a

company's handling of accounts receivable is days sales outstanding, which reveals the

average number of days a company takes to collect sales revenues.

2. Accounts Payable

Accounts payable, the money that a company is obligated to pay out over the short

term, is also a key component of working capital management. Companies seek to

strike a balance between maintaining maximum cash flow by delaying payments as long

as is reasonably possible and the need to maintain positive credit ratings while

sustaining good relationships with suppliers and creditors. Ideally, a company's average

time to collect receivables is significantly shorter than its average time to settle

payables.

3. Inventory

Inventory is a company's primary asset that it converts into sales revenues. The rate at

which a company sells and replenishes its inventory is an important measure of its

success.

Investors consider the inventory turnover rate to be an indication of the strength of sales

and as a measure of how efficient the company is in its purchasing and manufacturing

process. Inventory that is too low puts the company in danger of losing out on sales, but

excessively high inventory levels represent wasteful, inefficient use of working capital.

Source of Working Capital:

SPONTANEOUS (URGENT) SOURCES OF WORKING

CAPITAL FINANCE

The word ‗spontaneous‘ itself explains that this source of working capital is readily or

easily available to the business in the normal course of business affairs. The quantum

and terms of this credit depend on the industry norms and the relationship between

buyer and seller. These sources include trade credit allowed by the sundry creditors,

credit from employees, and other trade-related credits. The biggest benefit of

spontaneous sources as working capital is its ‗effortless raising‘ and ‗insignificant cost‘

compared to traditional ways of financing.

List of spontaneous sources of working capital

TRADE CREDIT

SUNDRY CREDITORS

BILLS PAYABLE

NOTES PAYABLE

ACCRUED EXPENSES

The cost factor and the quantum depends a lot on the terms of such credit viz.

maximum credit limit, the period of credit, and discount on cash payment. Each supplier

will have a maximum credit limit defined for the buyer depending on the business

capacity and creditworthiness of the buyer. Similarly, the credit period is defined say 30

days, 45 days etc. Discount on cash payment is allowed to the buyer if the payment

immediately on buying the materials. This percentage of discount is an opportunity cost

for the buyer.

SHORT TERM SOURCES OF WORKING CAPITAL FINANCE

Short term sources can be further divided into internal and external sources of working

capital finance. The

Short-term Internal Sources

TAX PROVISIONS

DIVIDEND PROVISIONS

Short-term External Sources

Short-term working capital financing from banks such as

BANK OVERDRAFTS,

CASH CREDITS,

TRADE DEPOSITS,

BILLS DISCOUNTING,

SHORT-TERM LOANS OR WORKING CAPITAL LOANS,

INTER-CORPORATE LOANS,

COMMERCIAL PAPER, ETC.

Tax and dividend provisions are current liabilities and cannot be delayed. The fund that

would have been used in paying these provisions act as working capital till the point

these are not paid.

Short-term working capital finance availed from banks and financial institutions are

costly compared to spontaneous and long-term sources in terms of rate of interest but

have a great time flexibility. Due to time flexibility, the finance manager can use the

funds and pay interest on the money which his business utilizes and can pay them

anytime when cash is available. Overall, in comparison to long-term sources where you

have to hold funds even when not required, these facilities prove cheaper.

LONG-TERM SOURCES OF WORKING CAPITAL FINANCING

Long-term sources can also be divided into internal and external sources. Long-term

internal sources of finance are retained profits and provision for depreciation whereas

external sources are Share Capital, long-term loan, and debentures.

Long-term Internal Sources

RETAINED PROFITS

PROVISION FOR DEPRECIATION

Long-term External Sources

SHARE CAPITAL

LONG-TERM LOAN

DEBENTURES

Retained profits and accumulated depreciation are as good as funds available to the

business without any explicit cost. These are the funds completely earned and owned

by the business itself. They are utilized for expansion as well as working capital finance.

Long-term external sources of finance like share capital is a cheaper source of finance

but are not commonly used for working capital finance.

Working capital can be classified as temporary working capital and permanent working

capital. It is advisable to use long-term sources for permanent and short-term sources

for temporary working capital requirements. This will optimize the working capital cost

and enforce good working capital management practices.



Various Methods of Assessment of Working Capital:

• Operating Cycle Method

• Drawing Power Method.

• Turnover Method.

• MPBF method (II method of lending) for limits of Rs 6.00 crores and above

• Cash Budget method - A cash budget is an estimation of the cash inflows and

outflows for a business over a specific period of time, and this budget is used to

assess whether the entity has sufficient cash to operate. Companies use sales

and production forecasts to create a cash budget, along with assumptions about

necessary spending and accounts receivable. If a company does not have

enough liquidity to operate, it must raise more capital by issuing stock or by

taking on debt.

Under this method, monthly cash inflow and outflow statement is prepared and

the highest gap between the two becomes the basis for sanction of credit limit.

Banks make use of cash budget method in case of seasonal industries, software

development, services sector activities including construction activity, etc.

Based on procurement and cash inflow) . It is mainly used for Seasonal

Industries (Sugar/ Rice Mills/Textiles/Tea/Tobacco/Fertilizers) Contractors &

Real Estate Developers , Educational Institutions, etc.



 Operating Cycle :



 Any manufacturing activity is characterized by a cycle of operations consisting of

purchase of raw materials for cash, converting these into finished goods and realising

cash by sale of these finished goods.

 Diagrammatically, the operating cycle is represented as under'













The time that lapses between cash outlay and cash realisation by sale of finished

goods and realisation of sundry debtors is known as the length of the operating cycle.



That is, the operating cycle consists of:

a. Time taken to acquire raw materials and average period for which they are in

store.

b. Conversion process time

c. Average period for which finished goods are in store and

d. Average collection period of receivables (Sundry Debtors)



 Operating Cycle is also called the cash-to-cash cycle and indicates how cash is

converted into raw materials, stocks in process, finished goods, bills(receivables) and

finally back to cash. Working capital is the total cash that is circulating in this cycle.

Theref





Traditional Method of Assessment of Working Capital Requirement



The operating cycle concept serves to identify the areas requiring improvement for the

purpose of control and performance review. But, as bankers, we require a more detailed

analysis to assess the various components of working capital requirement viz., finance for

stocks, bills etc.

Bankers provide working capital finance for holding an acceptable level of current assets, viz.

raw materials, stocks-in-process, finished goods and sundry debtors for achieving a

predetermined level of production and sales. Quantification of these funds required to be

blocked in each of these items of current assets at any time will, therefore provide a measure of

the working capital requirement (WCR) of an industry.



Raw Materials: Any industrial unit has to necessarily stock a minimum quantum of

materials used in its production to ensure uninterrupted production. Factors which affect or

influence the funds requirement for holding raw materials are



i. Average consumption of raw materials.

ii. Their availability - locally or from places outside, easy availability / scarcity, number of

sources of supply.

iii. Time taken to procure raw materials (procurement time or lead time)

iv. Imported or indigenous.

v. Minimum quantity supplied by the market (Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ)).

vi. Cost of holding stocks (e.g. insurance, storage, interest)

vii. Criticality of the item.

viii. Transport and other charges (Economic Order Quantity (EOQ)).

ix. Availability on credit or against advance payment in cash

x. Seasonality of the materials.

This raw material requirement is generally expressed as so many months’

requirement (consumption).



 Stocks-in-process : Barring a few exceptional types of industries, when the raw materials

get converted into finished products within a few hours, there is normally a time lag or

delay or period of processing only after which the raw materials get converted into finished

product. During this period of processing, the raw materials are being processed and

expenses are being incurred. The period of processing may vary from a few hours to a

number of months and unit will be blocking working funds in the stocks-in-process during

this period. Such funds blocked in SIP depend on:

i. The processing time

ii. Number of products handled at a time in the process

iii. Average quantities of each product, processed at each time. (batch quantity)

iv. The process technology adopted

v. Number of shifts

A rough and ready formula for computing the requirement of funds is to find out the cost of

production for the period of processing. viz. (raw materials consumed per month +

expenses per month) x period of processing in months.



Finished goods: All products manufactured by an industry are not sold immediately. It will

be necessary to stock certain amount of goods pending sale. This stocking depends on:

i. Whether the manufacture is against firm order or against anticipated order

ii. Supply terms

iii. Minimum quantity that can be despatched

iv. Transport availability and transport cost

v. Pre-despatch Inspection

vi. Seasonality of goods

vii. Variation in demand

viii. Peak level/ low level of operations

ix. Marketing arrangement - e.g. direct sale to consumers or through dealers

(wholesalers).

The requirement of funds against finished goods is expressed as so many months’ cost of

production.

















Sundry Debtors (Receivables) :

Sales may be effected under three different methods:

a. Against Advance Payment

b. Against Cash

c. On Credit

In the case of (a) no funds are blocked up. Instead it helps in meeting the working capital needs.

In case of Cash Sales (b) no funds are blocked up and hence there is no need for additional

working capital requirement. It is in the case of (c) credit sales that working funds are required to

meet delays in sales realisation. The entire sales of the industry will not be on cash basis. In fact

a major portion will be on credit. A unit grants trade credit because it expects this investment to

be profitable. It would be in the form of sales expansion and fresh customers or it could be in the

form of retention of existing customers. The extent of credit given by the industry normally

depends upon:

i. Trade Practices

ii. Market conditions

iii. Whether it is a bulk purchase by the buyer.

iv. Seasonality (e.g. rain coats, woolen products).

v. Price advantage.

Even in cases where no credit is extended to buyers, the transit time for the goods to reach the

buyer may take some time and till the cash is received back, the unit will have to be out of

funds. The period from the time of sale to the receipt of funds will have to be reckoned for the

purpose of quantifying the funds blocked in Sundry Debtors. Even through the amount of Sundry

Debtors according to the unit’s books will be on the basis of Sale price, the actual amount

blocked will be only the cost of production of the materials against which credit has been

extended - the difference being the unit’s profit margin - (which the unit does not obviously have

to spend).

The working capital requirement against Sundry Debtors will therefore be computed on the

basis of cost of production (whereas the permissible Bank Finance will be computed on the

basis of sale value since profit margin varies from product to product and buyer to buyer and

cannot be uniformly segregated from the sale value).

The working capital requirement is normally expressed as so many months’ cost of production.



 Expenses : It is customary in assessing the working capital requirement of industries, to

provide for one month’s expenses also. A question might be raised as to why expenses

should be taken separately, whereas at every stage the funds required to be blocked had

been taken into account. This amount is provided merely as a cushion, to take care of

temporary bottlenecks and to enable the unit to meet expenses when they fall due.

Normally one month total expenses, direct and indirect, salaries etc. are taken into

account. In cases where the operating cycle is very short say one month or 2 months the

provision for expenses can be reduced. Similarly, where the operating cycle is very long,

say 12 months or more, the provision for expenses may have to be increased, to take care

of contingencies.

While computing the working capital requirements of a unit, it will be necessary to take into

account two other factors, one is the credit received on purchases. Trade Credit is a

normal practice in trading circles. The period of such credit will vary from place to place,

material to material and person to person. The amount of credit received on purchases

reduces the working capital funds required by the unit. Secondly, industries often receive

advance against orders placed for their products.



necessarily give advance to producers e.g. Custom-made machinery. Such funds are used

for the working capital of an industry. It can thus be summarised as follows:

1. Raw Materials Months requirements Rs. A

2. Stocks-in- Process Months (Cost of Rs. B

(for Period of Processing) Production)

3. Finished Goods Months cost of Rs. C

production required

to be stocked

4. Sundry Debtors Months cost of production Rs. D

(outstanding credits)

5. Expenses One month(say) Rs. E

------------------

A+B+C+D+E

-------------------

Less: Credit received on purchases - Rs. F

(Months’ Purchases value)

Advance payment on order received - Rs.G

Working Capital Required (H) = (A+B+C+D+E) - (F+G)

The purpose of assessing the W/C requirement of the industry is to determine how the total

requirements of funds will be met. The two sources for meeting these requirements are the

unit’s long term sources (like capital and long term borrowings) and the short term borrowings

from banks



Drawing Power (DP) Method :

(for units with small limits)

Drawing power is arrived at on the basis of valuation of current assets charged to the

bank in the shape of hypothecation and assignment , after deducting the stipulated

margin

Illustration:

Paid stock – 4 Margin 25% - DP = 3

Semi-finished goods – 4 Margin 50% - DP=2

Finished goods -4 Margin 25% - DP = 3

Book Debts – 4 Margin 50% - DP = 2

Total DP= 10



Turnover Method :



(originally suggested by Nayak Committee for SSI units)

The WC requirements may be worked out on the basis of Naik Committee

recommendations for working capital limit upto Rs.6 crores from the banking system, on

the basis of minimum of 20% of their projected annual turnover for new as well as

existing units, beyond which WC be computed on the basis of WC cycle, after fixing

stipulated margins , on each component of the WC. In case of borrowers desiring

facilities under Naik Committee recommendations and having a WC cycle of more than

3 months in a year, the WC requirements will be funded after assessing his

requirements on the basis of his WC cycle, after fixing proper margins.

Example:

Applicable for limits upto Rs.6 crores



(a) Projected sales = Rs. 10,00,000

(b) Working capital requirements: 25% of projected sales i.e. Rs.2,50,000

(c) Margin (contribution of Owner) : 5% of projected sales i.e. Rs.50,000

(d) Working capital to be funded by bank : Rs.2,00,000





MPBF Method

(Tandon‘s II method of lending)





Tandon Committee also recommended inventory/ receivable norms for 22 major industries.



 Approach to lending

Regarding approach to lending, the Committee suggested three methods for assessment of

working capital requirements.

FIRST METHOD

The quantum of bank’s short-term advances will be restricted to 75% of working capital gap

where “working capital gap” is equal to “Current Assets” minus “Current Liabilities Other Than

Bank Borrowings”. Remaining 25% is to be met from long-term sources (Net Working Capital)

SECOND METHOD

Net Working Capital should at least be equal to 25% of total value of acceptable level of current

assets. The remaining 75% should first be financed by Other Current Liabilities (OCL) and the

bank may finance balance of the requirements.

THIRD METHOD

The borrower should provide for entire core current assets and 25% balance current assets from

the Net Working Capital.

To compute the level of working capital requirement of the unit, the analyst has to assess the

level of current assets it has to carry, consistent with its projected level of production and sales.

Inventory and receivables constitute most of the current assets. On the basis of the Committee

report, RBI gave inventory norms and advised the banks to decide the levels of inventory and

receivables taking into account, production, processing cycles and other relevant factors



• Working capital gap : Current assets – current liabilities (other than bank

borrowings)

• Minimum stipulated net working capital= 25% of current assets (excluding

exports receivables)

• Actual projected NWC









Cash budget method::



Assessment of working capital



The assessment of working capital is done through the Projected Balance Sheet

Method (PBS), Cash Budget method or Turnover Method.



 Under the PBS method, the fund requirements computed on the basis of borrower’s

projected balance sheet, the funds flow planned for the current/ following year

and examination of the profitability, financial parameters. etc. The key determinants for

the limit can, inter-alia, be the extent of financing support required by the

borrower and the acceptability of the borrower’s overall financial position including

the projected level of liquidity. The projected Bank borrowing thus arrived at, is

termed as ‘Assessed bank Finance’ (ABF). This method is applicable for borrowers

who are engaged in manufacturing, services and trading activities and who require

fund bases working capital (WC) finance of above Rs. 5 crores.



Cash budget method is used for assessing working capital finance for seasonal

industries like sugar, tea and construction activity. This method is also used for sanction

of ad-hoc WC limits. In these cases, the required finance is quantified from the

projected cash flows and not from the projected values of current assets and current

liabilities. Other aspects of assessment like examination of funds flow, profitability,

financial parameters, etc, are also carried out

Collection of financial data



CMA DATA

Introduction:   Credit Monitoring Arrangement (CMA) data is a very important area to understand a person who deals with finance in an organization. This is a critical analysis of current and projected financial statements of a loan applicant by the banker. Data CMA is a systematic analysis of working capital management of the borrower and the purpose of this statement is to ensure the use of long-term and short-term funds have been used . for the particular purpose . In this article I want to discuss the content database CMA CMA Basically contains data that, following the seven states.

1. particular existing and proposed limits:   It is the first statement in the CMA data that contains this fund and fund based limits of non-borrower credit limits and their use and history. With the current limitations of funds, which is the limit proposed or the borrower will be mentioned in this statement is a basic document information provided by the borrower, the banker.



2. operating Declaration:  This is the second statement provided by the borrower, it indicates that the business plan of the borrower gives the current sales, direct and indirect costs, pre-and after tax, as well as projections of sales, expenses and profit situation for 3-5 years based on the borrower's working capital demand. This statement is a scientific analysis of the capacity of production and financial current and projected income of the borrower.



3. analysis of balance:  balance sheet analysis for current and projected statement is the third in the CMA data. This statement gives a detailed analysis of current and non-current assets, fixed assets, cash and bank, the current position and long-term debt of the borrower. Moreover, this declaration indicates the position of the net worth of the borrower for the projected years. budget analysis gives a complete financial situation of the borrower and the generating capacity cash over the planned exercises.



4. Comparative table of current assets and liabilities:   . Fourth statement which gives a comparative analysis of current assets and current liabilities of the borrower movement This basically decides the cycle capital of actual work for the projection period and ability of the borrower to meet their working capital needs.



5. Calculate MPBF:  This is a very important statement and calculation that indicates the  M Aximum  P ermissible B ank  F inance. This statement, which calculates the borrower working capital GAP and finance eligible in two methods loan, the first method of loan will enable MPBF 75% of the work GAP net capital is Current assets less current liabilities, Second method loan will enable MPBF 75% of current assets less current liabilities. As limit MPBF is the credit component of cash the borrower generally known drawing power (DP Limit). So it is very important statement that decide the borrower `s borrowing limit of the bank.



6. fund cash flow:  cash flow analysis statement for the current period and projected is one of the states in the CMA data. fund this position analysis of the borrower's account with reference to the analysis of capital given in the calculations MPBF and projected balance sheets. Objective basis of this statement capture the movement of funds to the borrower for the period.



. 7 Ratio Analysis:  This is the last statement that gives the key ratios for the bank on the basis of data from the AMC prepared and presented to the bank financing. Ratios basic gross margin rate net margin, current ratio, limit DP MPBF, net worth, the ratio of the net value of liabilities, the liquidity ratio, inventory turnover, asset turnover, fixed asset turnover, the number of current business assets, working capital turnover, Debt Equity ratio etc.





For working capital assessment, the required financial data are obtained from the borrower

in the following forms:

Form I : Particulars of existing / proposed limits from the banking system

Form II : Operating statement

Form Ill : Analysis of balance sheet

Form IV : Comparative Statement of CA / CL,

Form VI: Funds flows statement.

Form VII: Statement showing the total cost of the project and sources  of finance



Information provided in the Forms II, III. IV, and VI serves the detailed financial analysis. In

Form I, in addition to information relating to working capital and term loan borrowings

(existing and proposed) information regarding borrowings from NBFCs, borrowings from

term leading institutions for WC purposes, Inter Corporate Deposits taken, lease finance

availed will also be collected..





Working capital:  Numerical

A newly formed company has applied to the Commercial Bank for the first time for financing its

working capital requirements. The following information is available about the projections for

the current year:

Per unit

Elements of cost: (Rs.)

Raw material 40

Direct labour 15

Overhead 30

Total cost 85

Profit 15

Sales 100

Other information:

Raw material in stock : average 4 weeks consumption, Work – in progress (completion stage,

50 per cent), on an average half a month. Finished goods in stock : on an average, one

month.

Credit allowed by suppliers is one month.

Credit allowed to debtors is two months.

Average time lag in payment of wages is 1½ weeks and 4 weeks in overhead expenses.

Cash in hand and at bank is desired to be maintained at Rs. 50,000.

All Sales are on credit basis only.

Required:

(i) Prepare statement showing estimate of working capital needed to finance an activity level

of 96,000 units of production. Assume that production is carried on evenly throughout the

year, and wages and overhead accrue similarly. For the calculation purpose 4 weeks may

be taken as equivalent to a month and 52 weeks in a year.

(ii) From the above information calculate the maximum permissible bank finance by all the

three methods for working capital as per Tondon Committee norms; assume the core

current assets constitute 25% of the current assets.

TT and Bill Rates

TT Rates and Bill Rates

Following 4 types of buying and selling rates are important:

1. TT Buying rate

2. Bill Buying rate

3. TT Selling rate

4. Bill Selling rate

In Interbank market, exchange rate is quoted up to 4 decimals in multiples of 0.0025. e.g.

1USD=53.5625/5650

For customers the exchange rate is quoted in two decimal places i.e. Rupees and paisa. e.g. 1

USD =Rs. 55.54.

Amount being paid or received will be rounded off to nearest Rupee.

TT Buying Rate

It is required to calculate when our Nostro account is already credited or

being credited without delay e.g. Receipt of DD, MT, TT or collection of

Foreign bills. This rate is used for cancellation of Forward Sales Contract.

Calculation

Spot Rate – Exchange Margin

Bill Buying Rate Bill Buying rate is applied when bank gives INR to the customer before

receipt of Foreign Exchange in the Nostro account i.e. Nostro account is

credited after the purchase transaction. In such cases.

Examples are:

 Export Bills Purchased/Discounted/Negotiated.

 Cheques/DDs purchased by the bank.

Calculation

Spot Rate + Forward Premium (or deduct forward discount) – Exchange

margin.

TT Selling Rate Any sale transaction where no delay is involved is quoted at TT selling rate.

It is desired in issue of TT, MT or Draft. It is also desired in crystallization of

Export bills and Cancellation of Forward purchase contract.

Calculation

Spot Rate + Exchange Margin

Bill Selling Rate It is applied where handling of documents is involved e.g. Payment against

Import transactions:

Calculation

Spot Rate + Exchange Margin for TT selling + Exchange margin for Bill

Selling

Credit Information Companies (N H Siddiqui Working Group)

A Credit Information Company (CIC) is an independent organization licensed by RBI that enters into an agreement with banks, NBFCs

and financial institutions (called credit institutions), as its members and aggregates data and identity information for individual

consumers and business entities, from its members.

Legal provisions : The Credit Information Companies (Regulation) Act, 2005 was operationalised with effect from December 14,

2006. In terms of Section 15(1) of the Act, every credit institution has to become member of at least one credit information

company within a period of three months from commencement of the Act or any extended time allowed by RBI on application.

As all commercial banks fall under the definition of credit institutions (Section 2 of the Act), they are required to take

membership of at least one credit information company and provide credit data (positive as well as negative) to the credit

information company in the format prescribed by the credit information company.

Sharing of credit report with customers : Section 21 of the Credit Information Companies (Regulation) Act, 2005, provides that any

person, who applies for grant or sanction of credit facility, from any credit institution, may request to such institution to furnish him a

copy of the credit information obtained by such institution from the credit information company. It also provides that every credit

institution shall on receipt of request furnish to such person a copy of the credit information subject to payment of charges specified

by RBI.

Charges for report : As per Credit Information Companies Regulations, 2006, framed under the Act, RBI has prescribed a

maximum fee of Rs. 50/- (Rupees fifty only) for the purpose.

Source of data : Members of the credit information companies, submit data of their borrowers on a regular basis which is

aggregated by the bureau and presented to its members. A credit bureau only reproduces information that is submitted by its

members.

With CIC Act coming into force, RBI advised banks (Jul 01, 2013) that consent of the borrower to share information with CIC,

prescribed earlier, need not be insisted upon by banks.

Wilful defaulters Banks/Pis are required submit the list of suit-filed accounts of wilful defaulters of Rs.25 lakh and above as at end-

March, June, September and December every year to a credit information company which has obtained certificate of registration

from RBI in terms of Section 5 of the Credit Information Companies (Regulation) Act, 2005 and of which it is a member. Credit

Information Companies have also been advised by RBI to disseminate the information pertaining to suit filed accounts of Wilful

Defaulters on their respective websites.

Types of letter of credit

TYPES OF LETTERS OF CREDITS



Documents against

Payment LC or Si ght

LC

DP LCs or Sight LCs are those where the payment is made against documents on presentation.

(DA = Documents against payment, DP=Documents against acceptance)

Documents against

acceptance or

us ance



DA LCs or Acceptance LCs are those, where the payment is to be made on the maturity date in terms

of the credit. The documents of title to goods are delivered to applicant merely on acceptance of

documents for payment. (DA = Documents against payment, DP=Documents against acceptance)

Deferred Payment LC It is similar to Usance LC but there is no bill of exchange or draft. It is payable on a future date if

documents as per LC are submitted.



Irrevocable and

revocable credits

The issuing bank can amend or cancel the undertaking if the beneficiary consents.

A revocable credit is one that can be cancelled or amended at any time without the prior knowledge

of the seller. If the negotiating bank makes a payment to the seller prior to receiving notice of

cancellation or amendment, the issuing bank must honour the liability.

With or without recourse

Where the beneficiary holds himself liable to the holder of the bill if dishonoured, is

considered to be with-recourse. Where he does not hold Himself liable, the credit is said to be

without-recourse. As per RBI directive dated Jan 23, 2003, banks should not open LCs and purchase /

discount / negotiate bills bearing the 'without recourse' clause.

Restricted LCs A restricted LC is one wherein a specified bank is designated to pay, accept or negotiate.

Confirmed Credits A credit to which the advising or other hank at the request of the issuing bank adds confirmation that

payment will be made. By such additions, the confirming bank steps into the shoes of the issuing

bank and thus the confirming bank negotiates documents if tendered by the beneficiary.

Transferable Credits The beneficiary is entitled to request the paying, accepting or negotiating bank to make available in

whole or part, the credit Cu one or more other parties (Article 48 of UCPDC). For partial transfer to

one or more second beneficiary/ies the credit must provide for partial shipment.



Back to back

credits

A back to back credit is one where an exporter received a documentary credit opened by a buyer in

his favour. He tenders the same to the bank in his country as a cover for opening another LC in

favour of his local suppliers. The terms of such credit would be identical except that the price may

be lower and validity earlier.

Red Clause

Credits

A red clause credit also referred to a packing or anticipatory credit has a clause permitting the

correspondent bank in the exporter's country to grant advance to beneficiary at issuing bank's

responsibility. These advances are adjusted from proceeds of the bills negotiated.



Green Clause

Credits

A green clause LC permits the advances for storage of goods in a warehouse in addition to preshipment

advance

.

Stand-by

Credits

Standby credits is similar to performance bond or guarantee, but issued in the form of LC. The

beneficiary can submit his claim by means of a draft accompanied by the requisite documentary

evidence of performance, as stipulated in the credit.



Documentary or clean

credits

When LC specifies that the bills drawn under LC must accompany documents of title to goods such as

RRs or MTRs or Bills of lading etc. it is termed as Documentary Credit. If any such documents are not

called, the credit is said to be Clean Credit.



Revolving Credits These provide that the amount of drawings made thereunder would be reinstated and made

available to the beneficiary again and again for further drawings during the currency of credit.

Instahnent credit It is a letter of credit for the full value of goods but requires shipments of specific quantities of

5 life lessons you can learn from Lord Ganesha

5 life lessons you can learn from Lord Ganesha

Lord Ganesha, the Elephant God, is not only the Lord of Beginnings and Remover of Obstacles, but also a teacher if you pay close attention to the tales of Hindu mythology. Also known as Ekdant, his anecdotes form an integral part of Hindu mythology and impart great life lessons to his followers. We can all learn a thing or two about life from these tales:

1. Duty is above all else

It is believed that Goddess Parvati created Lord Ganesha by carving out a boy's idol from turmeric paste and breathing life into it, in the absence of Lord Shiva. She told the boy to guard the door while she bathed, and he obediently followed his mother's instructions. Around the same time, Lord Shiva returned from his expedition, and demanded entry into Parvati's bathing area--which Lord Ganesha refused. The event turned into a fight between the father and the son, and ended with Ganesha being beheaded. Later, Lord Shiva resurrected the boy after placing an elephant's head on his body.

This very story is a lesson that even gods are bound to fulfill their duties, and there's no greater virtue than being dutiful, especially towards a parent. Despite being well-aware of the might of Lord Shiva, and the repercussions that could follow, Lord Ganesha refused to budge even if when it cost him his life.

2. Nobody is more important than one's parents



Once, Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati offered a miraculous fruit of knowledge to their sons, Lord Kartikeya and Lord Ganesha, but only one of them could get the sacred fruit. To decide who deserved the fruit more, Lord Shiva asked them to circumnavigate the world thrice, and the one who finished the navigation first would be blessed with the fruit. The elder son, Lord Kartikeya, eager to win the race, left on his vehicle, a peacock, while Lord Ganesha wondered how he was ever going to be victorious riding his rat-vehicle.

After ambitiously circling the earth thrice, Kartikeya returned to find Lord Ganesha already home. Lord Ganesha had won the race, but instead of the earth, he had circled around Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati--who were his idea of the world. He was blessed with the fruit of knowledge, and came to be known as the Lord of Knowledge.

This story is a lesson on how parents can never cease to be important, even if you're a god. This lesson has the power to change the fate of millions of abandoned parents today.

3. Forgiveness is the ultimate virtue

The legend says that Lord Ganesha once cursed the moon for mocking his pot-belly after he was returning from a satiating dinner party thrown by the Lord of Fortune, Kuber. The lover of food and desserts, Lord Ganesha was returning home after having a hearty meal, when he stumbled and rolled over on his belly. The Moon saw it from high above, and burst into a cynical laughter that miffed Lord Ganesha, and compelled him to curse him. Lord Ganesha cursed the moon to disappear from the sky completely, while he begged for forgiveness. Ultimately, the generous Lord Ganesha gave in to his requests, but since he couldn't revoke the curse, he reduced the disappearance span of the moon from the sky to one day.

Lord Ganesha's story explains how anger gets to the best of us, but it is our power to overcome it that makes us a better human being.

4. You should finish every task you take up

The legend says that sage Vyasa (Ved Vyasa) wanted to write the epic, Mahabharata, and he requested Lord Ganesha to write it down while he narrated the verse. The Lord agreed on one condition--Sage Vyasa was supposed to finish reciting the verses without a pause, and Lord Ganesha would write without taking a break. The two sat down to write one of the greatest epics known to mankind, but faith had something else in store--Lord Ganesha's pen broke while he was still writing. Lord Ganesha broke one of his tusks, and continued writing the epic.

Lord Ganesha sacrificed his own tusk to finish a task meant for greater good. If we could all imbibe this lesson from him, we'd all be closer to success than we already are.
5. Always stand up for your self-respect

Legend has it that once, all the gods and goddesses left Lord Ganesha in-charge of the Swargalok, as they left with Lord Vishnu's marriage procession headed towards Goddess Laxmi's abode. Lord Ganesha was tricked into taking care of Swargalok, because the other deities were embarrassed of his physical appearance and massive diet. On getting to know the truth, Lord Ganesha wanted to avenge himself, and devised a clever plan that would make them realise his importance. Ganesha sent his rat-vehicle, Gajasur, to dig up the roads that led to Goddess Laxmi's abode, and he obeyed. As expected, the deities couldn't proceed further, and called for help. A farmer who was crossing by the road decided to help the deities, and pulled out the carriage stuck in the road in the first attempt after chanting Lord Ganesha's name. He explained how only Lord Ganesha's name could have induced the strength in him to lift the carriage, since he is the Remover of Obstacles. This made the deities realise that there's more to a being than his physical appearance, and they returned to offer their apologies to Lord Ganesha.

Lord Ganesha's story is a lesson to never let anyone undermine your abilities, or your physical appearance cloud people's judgement of you.

Difference between Primary Security & Collateral Security

Difference between Primary Security &  Collateral Security

Primary Security : Primary security is the asset created out of the
credit facility extended to the borrower and / or which are directly associated
with the business / project of the borrower for which the credit facility has
been extended. For example, hypothecation of stocks, book debts etc.
Stocks include Raw Materials, Stock in process, Finished Goods, Spares
etc.Book debts are based on invoices and delivery challans. Hypothecation is
the established practice whereby a borrower offers to the lender charge on an
asset as security for a loan, while retaining ownership of the asset and enjoying
the benefits there from. With hypothecation, the lender has the right to seize
the asset if the borrower cannot service the loan as stipulated by the terms in
the loan agreement.

• Collateral Security: Collateral security is any security, other than
Primary Security, offered to additionally secure the credit facilities
sanctioned by the Bank. Collateral security is normally obtained as a risk
mitigating measure and to sustain the promoters’ interest in the venture.

Negative lien and set off

Negative lien and set off

There is no legal definition of 'negative lien'. Lien is the right to retain goods of a borrower or pledgor for the debt. Negative Lien is used in banking parlance for a borrower to undertake not to create any charge on his property without the consent
of the lender. The borrower may sometime be having non-encumbered assets which are not charged to the bank as security. The borrower is thus free to deal with these assets
and may even sell them if he so desires. To restrict this right of the borrower, bank may sometimes request him to give an undertaking to the effect that he will neither create any encumbrance on these assets nor sell them without the previous permission of the bank so long as the advance continues......

Negative Lien: When goods and securities are in possession of borrowers creditor
obtains an undertaking from the borrower that he will not create any charge on those
securities without the prior permission of the creditor this kind of lien is called as
negative lien.
The borrower may sometime be having non-encumbered assets which are not charged
to the bank as security. The borrower is thus free to deal with these assets and may
even sell them if he so desires. To restrict this right of the borrower, bank may
sometimes request him to give an undertaking to the effect that he will neither create
any encumbrance on these assets nor sell them without the previous permission of the
bank so long as the advance continues.
Set Off: The set-off refers to ―combining of two or more account for final settlement of
accounts‖
In other words set off is a process where the bank recovers its due loan, to the debit of
deposit account of the burrower
The essential condition is that one of such accounts must show a debit balance and the
other, a credit balance
Different Branches are one unit
For exercising the right to set off all branches of a bank are treated as a single unit,
which means a loan from branch-A can be adjusted by the funds in branch-B
