  • A Study on Management of Non Performing Assets in Priority Sector Reference to Indian Bank and Public Sector Banks (Psbs) by B.Selvarajan & Dr
    Global Journal of Management and Business Research Volume 13 Issue 1 Version 1.0 Year 2013 Type: Double Blind Peer Reviewed International Research Journal Publisher: Global Journals Inc. (USA) Online ISSN: 2249-4588 & Print ISSN: 0975-5853 A Study on Management of Non Performing Assets in Priority Sector reference to Indian Bank and Public Sector Banks (PSBs) By B.Selvarajan & Dr. G. Vadivalagan Anna University, Chennai Abstract - In India the magnitude of the problem of bad debts was not taken seriously. Subsequently, following the recommendations of Narasimham committee and Verma committee, some steps have been taken to solve the problem of old NPAs in the balance sheets of the banks. It continues to be expressed from every corner that there has rarely been any systematic evaluation of the best way of tackling the problem. There seems to be no unanimity in the proper policies to be followed in resolving this problem. There is also no consistency in the application of NPA norms, ever since these have been recognized. Non Performing Assets are also called as Non Performing Loans. It is made by a bank or finance company on which repayments or interest payments are not being made on time. A loan is an asset for a bank as the interest payments and the repayment of the principal create a stream of cash flows. It is from the interest payments that a bank makes its profits. The problem of NPA is not limited to only Indian public sector banks, but it prevails in the entire banking industry. Major portion of bad debts in Indian Banks arose out of lending to the priority sector at the dictates of politicians and bureaucrats.

  • Constraints Facing Indian Agriculture: Need for Policy Intervention
    Ind. Jn. of Agri. Econ. Vol. 60, No. 1, Jan.-March 2005 Constraints Facing Indian Agriculture: Need for Policy Intervention Ranjana Kumar* I BRIEF OVERVIEW OF INDIAN AGRICULTURE Even after 50 years of Independence, agriculture continues to be the mainstay of the Indian economy. It accounts for about one-fourth (25 per cent) of the gross domestic product (GDP) and is the source of livelihood for nearly two-thirds (60 per cent) of the population. The green revolution has been the cornerstone of India’s agricultural achievement, transforming the country from one of food deficiency to self-sufficiency through enhanced technology adoption, increased public and private investments and certain institutional innovations that have augmented production and productivity gains. The post-green revolution period has witnessed impressive structural changes (Vyas, 2004) taking place in Indian agriculture. For example, Indian agriculture has been progressively acquiring the small farm character, with 40 per cent of the land now being operated by small and marginal farmers. The output mix in Indian agriculture has also undergone a significant shift from foodgrains to non-foodgrains and within foodgrains from coarse to finer cereals. Use of high-end inputs such as fertilisers, insecticides, improved seeds, mechanical farm implements, etc., have raised the proportion of inputs and consequently the total outlay on inputs. Despite impressive growth performance, the agriculture sector in India continues to be inefficient and plagued by constraints resulting in sluggish farm sector growth. The present paper attempts to spell out some of the constraints like, stagnancy in production and factor productivity growth, inadequate institutional support, migration of agricultural labour, etc.

  • Women on Corporate Boards Mentoring Programme 2013-14 (Batch I)
    Women on Corporate Boards Mentoring Programme 2013-14 (Batch I) Initiative supported by Mentee Profiles updated as on February 2015 Women on Corporate Boards Mentoring Programme 2013-14 (Batch I) About the Women on Corporate Boards Programme The WCB initiative is aimed at enhancing corporate governance by improving gender balance and increasing the number of women on boards as independent directors. The Companies Act 2013 prescribes that there should be at least one woman director in a Board, but it may be in the best interest of companies to have more than one woman in the Board and they should be Independent Directors. Academic research has shown that women make very good Board directors and the Boards’ with women directors make better decisions and are more effective. A major impediment in increasing the number of women serving on Corporate Boards in India is the limited number of women who are well qualified and trained to serve on the Boards. An equally big constraint is the limited number of “Board Ready” women who are well known to the Board Chairmen. Without adequate preparation, personal acquaintance or a strong reference, a Board Chairman or a Nomination Committee is unlikely to consider a woman (or man) for a Board position. The WCB Mentoring Programme is designed to deal with both of these issues. This is a structured mentorship programme (by-invitation), wherein Board Chairmen, directors and other senior professionals with extensive experience in Boards and areas of corporate governance mentor and coach qualified high potential women to take up board positions. The programme, inter alia, includes, reading designated study material/ articles, one-on-one sessions on corporate governance with the Mentor, workshops and group discussions on corporate governance and attending Board/ corporate meetings as Invitees.

  • Iimk News March Issue 8(1) FINAL 6 May 14.Pmd
    March 2014 | Vol. 8 (1) On 22nd of March 2014, IIM Kozhikode felicitated 348 students from Post Graduate Programme (PGP), 312 from Executive Post Graduate Programme (EPGP) and 6 from the Fellow Programme in Management (FPM) as a part of its 16th annual convocation. P4 The Indian Institute of Management Kozhikode organized the HR Summit 2014 during March 14-16. The Summit focussed on the theme, “Let’s Learn”. Spread over 3 days, the event was held at IIMK Kochi Campus. P6 IIM Kozhikode conquers Calicut in style from the word go. The buzzers came into force and that brought out some good answers from Lead College, Kannur University, NIT and the other IIM team. Couple of quick answers from Ms. Sulagna and Mr. Prabhakar from IIMK ensured that they were ahead of other teams and were chasing their own college mates. The seasoned quizmaster observed that they may have to take ‘management decisions’ to hold on to the runner up position and win half a lakh of rupees or try to chase down the leaders. They did retain the runner up title but Ms.Surbhi and Utkarsh moved from strength to strength and finished with a staggering 100 points, a record for the 2014 edition thus far. They came, they saw, they conquered. This simple adage was played to perfection by the IIM Kozhikode teams that The results of the city regional round were: Winner : IIM dominated the city final completely. The quiz started Kozhikode - Ms. Surbhi Verma and Utkarsh Rastogi; and earlier in the day with a rather workable 20 questions as Runner Up : IIM Kozhikode - Ms.

Through this Power List we want to celebrate the doers and doing, acknowledge the excellent work being done and empower the Indian financial services as a whole.
