Term Loans. 2. Cash Credit. 3. Demand Loans. ?Term Loans – (a)Term Loans are sanctioned to purchase fixed assets which are used to achieve sales target to earn profits over a long period of time.
Installments of these loans are fixed by calculating the income received from the assets purchased out of bank loan. Loans can be disbursed in one / two or even in more occasions. Recovery is started after machinery / assets start earning. The period from disbursement to the start of the first installment is termed as Gestation Period. (b)Agriculture Term Loans : Agriculture Term Loans are given to the farmers for the development of their farming activities and improve or to start activities allied to agriculture. In short these loans are given for adopting to modern methods of cultivations.
Ordinarily Parvatiya Gramin Bank gives these types of loans for – •Threshers. •Minor irrigation. •Plantations / Floriculture. •Cowshed. •Plough Bullocks. •Dairy , fishery , poultry etc. ?Cash Credit – (a)Cash Credit Loans are also called Working Capital Loans. These loans are defined as the funds required to carry the required levels of current assets (stocks , book debts) to enable the industry to carry on its operations at the expected levels. These loans can further classified as : •Permanent Working Capital : It is minimum amount of investment in Current Assets (CA) for carrying out operations. Fluctuating Working Capital : It represents additional assets required at different times during the operating period due to cyclic reasons. •Seasonal Working Capital : It is required for additional current assets due to seasonal nature e. g. thresher etc. •Adhoc Working Capital : It means additional funds for meeting the needs arising out of special circumstances such as execution of special order. DETERMINATION OF QUANTUM OF WORKING CAPITAL : Various methods are used for determining the quantum of Working Capital requirement but the most popular method is ‘Operating Cycle Method’.
The Operating Cycle – An industry is characterised by a cycle of operations consisting of purchasing raw materials for cash , converting these into finished goods and realizing cash by the sale of such finished goods. REPRESENTATION OF OPERATING CYCLE Components of Operating Cycle : i. Time taken to acquire raw material and average period for which they are in store. The time taken in first component is 90 days. ii. Conversion process time (converting raw material in to finished goods) . Time taken in this component is 20 days. iii.
Average period for which finished goods are in stores. Time taken in this component is 10 days. iv. Average collection period of receivables / sundry debtors. The time taken in this component is 30 days. The length of the Operating Cycle of a unit would be the sum of above four individual components of time. Therefore the Operating Cost is (90+20+10+30)days which is equal to 150 days. This means there are 365/150=2. 43 cycle of operations in the year. Now suppose that the estimated sales of a unit is Rs. 10 lac and operating expenses are expected to be Rs. 8 lac for a sales of Rs. 0 lac. Now the determination of Working Capital requirement will be as under : Since operating expenses are 8 lac , this should also be the quantum of working capital needed. We also know that there will be 2. 43 cycles of operation during the year. This means that each Rupee of working capital employed during the year is turned over 2. 43 times. Thus the working capital requirement of a unit is calculated to be Rs. 8/2. 43 lac = Rs. 3. 30 lac. This only implies that to meet it’s operation expenses , a unit does not need Rs. lac but only a certain fraction of it , since the same Rupee is available for redeployment 2. 43 times during the year. (b) Agriculture Cash Credit Loans – These loans are given to meet the seasonal agriculture operations. Loan limit is fixed for different input with the help of Scale of Finance for each crop which is determined by the technical committee of the district probably once in an year. These loans are repaid within two months after harvesting of the concerned crop. The disbursement of these loans is made in cash and kind portion as per farmer’s need. Demand Loans – In Parvatiya Gramin Bank these loans are granted mainly against pledge of specific securities viz. bank’s own term / Special Term Deposits , RD Deposits and against the assignment of LIC Policies. These loans are also given to the pensioners particularly Defense Pensioners who obtain pension from the bank. These loans are opened with one debit for the entire loan amount and no further debts are made except for interest , expenses etc. these loans are repayable on demand and the borrower can pay the loan gradually or at a time.

Environmental factors internal to the firm usually can be classified as Strengths (S) or Weaknesses (W) , and those external to the firm can be classified as Opportunities (O) or Threats (T). Such as analysis of the strategic environment is referred to as a SWOT Analysis. In simple form , a SWOT Analysis can be understood as the examination of an organization’s internal strengths and weaknesses , and its environments opportunities and its threats.
It is a general tool designed to be used in the preliminary stages of decision-making and as a precursor to strategic planning in various kinds of applications.

SUGGESTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS : To run any organization successfully the management needs to think always for the betterment of their services and products. There is always a chance of improvement in the functioning of every organization. In the past there was very less competition in the market and the banks had less pressure to provide better facilities to the people .
But in recent years the competition has increased due to the entry of the public banks , private sector banks and other money lending units. Considering this the banks neeed to be more careful and needs to take such steps which favours them to stay ahead in the market. Some of the suggestions and recommendations are : •A healthy relationship should be established with the customer. •More mass awareness campaigns should be organized in order to enhance market share of the bank. •Customer’s satisfaction must be the top priority of the bank. •Customer’s care centers should be established. Help line number should be given to every customer. •Online banking should be provided to customers for their better service. •The Bank can extend its business by marketing new products like insurance policies. •ATM should be installed by the bank so that maximum customers can take advantage of this facility. •Banking time should be increased from 8am to 8pm. •Time to time review of the customers should be done. •More seminars on the working of the bank should be held time to time. •More refresher training to the employees should be given time to time. •Staff should be more supportive with the customers.
