A) FINDING OF TESTING THE FIRST HYPOTHESIS 1. Establishm ent: - Before 1990 there were only three A SSSs in Pune District namely Dehane Asss in Khed Taluka, Shinoli Asss in Ambegaon Taluka, and Madh Asss in Junnar Taluka. But after 1990, these tliree A SSSs are closed and 6 ASSSs in Khed Taluka, 10 ASSSs in Ambegaon Taluka and 10 ASSSs in Junnar Taluka have been formed. Out of these 26 A SSSs one Asss is closed due to overdue and 25 ASSSs are operating in their area. These ASSSs covers 64 Villages of three Tahasil of the Pune District. These A SSSs are being sponsored by Pune District Central Co-operative Bank, Tribal Development Corporation, and Government of Maharahstra. 2. Multi-purpose Services:-These ASSSs are providing multi-purpose services in operating area to their members, i.e. Fair price ration shop. Monopoly procurement. Milk collection centre, Consumption loan. Long, medium and short term loans ect. 449 3. Members:-Total members all sample ASSSs were 6675 on 3P' March, 2005. Tirpad, Sendurli, Pimpalgaon ghode, and Uchhil ASSSs have scope to increase their members due to their large operating area. Dehane and Taleghar ASSSs are generating maximum employment as compared to otherASSSs. All A SSSs are working on co-operative principle. 4. Source of Fund: - These A SSSs are collecting their funds by way of own fund and borrowed funds. A) Own Fund: - Own fund position of Uchhil, Moroshi, Pimpalgaon Joga and Madh were better so these four A SSSs proved that it strengthens the base of their own fund. Taleghar, Dehane, Sendurli, Tirpad and Khangaon own fund position was also good but these ASSSs more depending upon on sponsoring bank loan. Pimpalgaon ghode, Sal, and Inglun A SSSs own fund position is not sound and these three A SSSs were mostly dependent on sponsoring bank loan. B) Borrowed Funds: - Uchhil, Moroshi, Pimpalgaon Joga and Madh ASSSs borrowed fund amount was less than total average so these four ASSSs were dependent on sponsoring bank loan for funds. Pimpalgaon ghode, Sal and Inglun A SSSs borrowed fund average was more than the total average, so these ASSSs were more dependent upon sponsoring bank loans. Sponsoring bank was successful in filling up the credit gap. 5. Application of Funds: - These ASSSs utilized maximum amount of fund for advancing loans and investment. A) Members Loans: - Moroshi, Uchhil, Khangaon,Tirpad, Pimpalgaon joga and Pimpalgaon ghode A SSSs members loan amount was more than Bank loans, so these A SSSs earned more income. Taleghr and Dehane ASSSs members loan percentages was less than bank loan but these A SSSs earned more income from other trading activities. Inglun and sendurli ASSSs members’ loan percentage was less than bank loan therefore these A SSSs were suffering from losses. All A SSSs sanction loan to members after the sanction of managing committee, but 450 secretaries played significant role in disbursement of loans. Loans recoveries were directly made by the secretaries. B) Investmentr-Taleglir Asss utilized more amounts from total fund for investments as compared to other ASSSs. All ASSSs made investment as per the provision of State co-operative Act. Investment was in shares in P.D.C.C.Bank, shares in sahakari sangh, shares in T.D.C. Fixed Deposits, N.S.C. etc. C) Fixed Assets:-Taleghr and madh ASSSs have invested more amounts from fund in fixed assets as compared to other ASSSs. Therefore their interest income was reduced, but amount was invested for running other activities, so their income from other activities was increased. There was no investment in fixed assets in case of Inglun, Uclihil, and Pimpalgaon Joga ASSSs. 6. Overdue: - Loan overdue continued to be a serious weakness of co-operative structure. All ASSSs were suffering from overdue problem. Inglun, Uchhil, Khangaon, Moroshi and Sendurli overdue problem was less than other ASSSs. In all the ASSSs Pimpalgaon ghode, Sal and Dehane ASSSs were greatly suffering from overdue problems out of the total respondent members more than 75% members noted their response that the A SSSs were suffering from overdue, but actually themselves were include in overdue members. Due to State Government loan freezing policy economically sound members were not repaying the loans of the ASSSs. Bad debts problem of all A SSSs was serious. 7. Operating efficiency: -Operating efficiency of these ASSSs is judged by profit, for that purpose income and expenses analysis was made and from that following points are drawn. I) Interest Income: - Sendurii, Moroshi, Dehane, Sal, Pimpalgaon ghode, Khangaon Uchhil and Inglun A SSSs interest income percentage was more than the other ASSSs, so there income position was fair. Taleghar Asss earned 451 income from other trading activities. Madh and Tripad interest income position was not sound. II) Interest paid: -Pimpalgaon Joga, Madh and Uchhil ASSSs interest paid expenses were less than the other because these ASSSs did not accept deposits and sponsoring bank stopped the loans of Pimpalgaon Joga, and mudh ASSSs due to overdue and loss. So their interest paid was less. III) Total expenses: - Moroshi, Dehane, Taleghr, and Khangaon ASSSs total expenses percentage to total income was less than the total average as compare to other ASSSs. Therefore these ASSSs were earning profit and others were suffering from losses. IV) Profit: -Only Taleghr Asss was earning profits every year but all other A SSSs were suffering from losses due to overdue and bad debts.
