We will see more and more of this happening because the sheer demand of loans has collapsed in the economy and that is the challenge for the economy and the banks, says Ajay Srivastava, CEO, Dimensions Corporate Finance.

There is a very aggressive home loan rate war out there. Kotak Mahindra Bank has reduced home loan rates to 6.65% till March 31. SBI is giving it at 6.70%, HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank at 6.8%. How are you reading into this? Would the ticket sizes of these home loans be much lower than pre Covid times?
It is an indicator that there is nowhere to lend. Most companies are able to access capital and they have realised that when capital is available at these valuations, why the hell borrow money? Let us dilute. So across the board, we see QIPs, PE fund raising, sale of companies. I do not meet a promoter who wants to borrow money at the end of the day. He is likely to raise capital and keep it in the bank.

The lowering of home loan rates come out of the sheer desperation of not having enough avenues to lend money to. How much can you lend money on personal loans, unsecured loans etc? That is not the smartest way to play the game. Historically, the housing loans have been the most stable platform for most of the institutions. HDFC ruled the roost and would continue to do so because their DNA and the cost structure are very different.

These banks will often come in, play the game and try to get you as a customer but all it tells you is that there are no borrowers of significant kind and they have run through individuals as borrowers because who wanted to borrow, you did not want to lend to and instead are targeting those who don’t want to borrow. So, it is very peculiar. You will see more and more of this happening because the sheer demand of loans has collapsed in the economy and that is the challenge for the economy and the banks. So yes, it is down there but not so much that we get excited.

Would you buy HDFC? It is a fantastic business but the stock is underperforming?
I do not think it is underperforming. The stock got rerated quite sharply. I have a holding in that stock and I do not sell it. It went from Rs 1,500 to Rs 2,800. It got back to Rs 2,500, if I am not wrong. It is an incredible franchise and they have done a remarkable job at doing two things — balancing corporate real estate loans and individual real estate loans, doing side investment as well. And of course there’s the holding company. They hold the best bank in the country, the best life insurance company, the best AMC in the country. That is the India story at the end of the day.

What they do not have is Fintech in their portfolio. So, they have got a problem there. Maybe they will come in there through HDFC Bank. but There is no better surrogate for Indian economy than HDFC as an institution. The problem is it is so over owned as a stock that if FIIs decide to sell or one large FII decides to dispose it off, there will be a large correction in the stock.

As a retail person if you are starting your life, that is the stock I want to keep for my children’s education, for my retirement. It is in a separate category. Do not evaluate it day-to-day. Instead, 17 years from now, this stock should pay for your son’s education.

Only private investment is “missing in action” at a time when all engines of aggregate demand are starting to fire to boost economic growth, according to a Reserve Bank article. Observing that there is little doubt today that a recovery based on a revival of consumption is underway, the RBI in the recent article said, “the jury leans towards such recoveries being shallow and short-lived”.

The key to whet the appetite for investment, it said, is to rekindle the animal spirits, a spontaneous urge to action rather than inaction, and not as the outcome of a weighted average of quantitative benefits multiplied by quantitative probabilities.

“All engines of aggregate demand are starting to fire; only private investment is missing in action. The time is apposite for private investment to come alive,” said the article prepared by RBI Deputy Governor Michael Debabrata Patra and other officials.

The article published in the RBI Bulletin- February 2021 further said “the time is apposite” for private investment to come alive.

Fiscal policy, with the largest capital expenditure (capex) budget ever and emphasis on doing business better, has offered to crowd it in.

“Will Indian industry and entrepreneurship pick up the gauntlet?,” it said.

The Indian economy is estimated to contract by 8 per cent during the current financial year on account of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The economy is expected to stage a V-shape recovery in the next fiscal and record double-digit growth.

An another article ‘Sectoral Deployment of Bank Credit in India: Recent Developments’ published in the Bulletin said that the muted credit offtake in the recent past needs to be seen in the context of economic slowdown coupled with the COVID-19-induced lockdown.

The RBI said the views expressed in the articles are those of the authors and do not necessarily represent the views of the Reserve Bank of India.

Bank credit growth, which had already started decelerating in 2019-20, experienced a further setback in 2020-21 in the wake of the pandemic.

However, with the gradual resumption of economic activity, credit to agriculture and services sectors has registered accelerated growth in the recent period, it said. Even in the industrial sector, credit growth to medium industries has accelerated, indicative of positive impact of several measures taken by the government and the Reserve Bank of India (RBI).

“However, contraction in credit to large industries and infrastructure remains a cause of concern,” it said.

The Reserve Bank has taken several measures to facilitate credit flow to various sectors of the economy, especially to the MSME and NBFC sectors.

Credit offtake is expected to pick up as the economy is poised to stage a smart recovery in 2021-22 on the back of decline in coronavirus infections and swift roll-out of the vaccination programme. This is in addition to a number of measures announced by the government in the Union Budget 2021-22 to accelerate the growth momentum, the article said.

As per the article, the recent decline in credit growth was mainly due to large industries.

“Owing to the stressed assets in large industries, there was a general reluctance on the part of bankers to lend to these industries, with the problem getting compounded by the pandemic,” it said.

India’s central bank wants banks to limit ownership stakes in capital intensive insurance companies at a maximum 20%, less than half of what the current regulations permit, three sources with knowledge of the discussions told Reuters.

Reserve Bank of India (RBI) rules allow banks to hold up to 50% stakes in insurers and on a selective basis equity holdings can be higher but must eventually be brought down within a certain period.

The sources, who asked not to be named as the discussions are private, however said the central bank in 2019 unofficially advised banks seeking to acquire stakes in insurers, to limit such stakes to a maximum of 30%, and more recently directed them to cap stake purchases in insurers at 20%.

“Unofficially, banks have been told that the regulator is not comfortable with lenders increasing their stakes because the insurance business is seen as a money guzzler,” one source said.

The RBI wants banks to focus on their main areas of business instead of locking away capital in non-core sectors. The central bank did not respond to a request seeking comment.

The unofficial push suggests the RBI is looking for uniformity around ownership rules for lenders with exposure in the sector, following suggestions made in a working paper by an internal group released in November.

Some lenders such as Kotak Mahindra Bank and State Bank of India have wholly-owned or majority owned insurance subsidiaries, and the paper had suggested that if any lender had more than a 20% stake in an insurer, they should follow a non-operative financial holding company (NOFHC) structure which will ring fence ownership.

Most lenders are not keen to adopt such a structure on concerns it will hurt shareholder value and limit their capital raising ability, one of the sources said.

Recommendations made by the working paper are under consideration by the RBI and it is not clear when the central bank will act on or implement the suggestions. In light of this, the sources said the RBI was likely to stall on any requests by banks to boost or acquire new stakes in insurers.

The move comes at a time when India is keen to woo foreign investment in its insurance sector. Last month, the government said it would allow foreign direct investment of up to 74% in insurers, up from 49%. Many foreign insurers are expected to explore the opportunity as insurance penetration continues to be low in India.

With fears that banks’ bad loans could double amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the RBI does not want banks to lock up money in capital intensive businesses, the sources said.

The RBI may have reservations about banks having more than 20% stakes in any non-core companies, one of the sources said.

Federal Bank, which sought permission from the RBI to increase its stake in Ageas Federal Life insurance after its board approved the deal about a year ago, has still not received RBI approval, one of the sources said.

Federal Bank did not respond to a request seeking comment.

Last year, the RBI had also rejected Axis Bank’s application to directly purchase a 17% stake in Max Life.

The transaction was only approved after Axis restructured it and agreed to purchase the stake with two subsidiaries, bringing down the bank’s direct ownership share to less than 10%.

Axis Bank did not respond to a request seeking comment on whether it restructured the deal on the advice of the RBI.

Reserve Bank of India – Press Releases

[ad_1]

April 14, 2015





Dear All




Welcome to the refurbished site of the Reserve Bank of India.





The two most important features of the site are: One, in addition to the default site, the refurbished site also has all the information bifurcated functionwise; two, a much improved search – well, at least we think so but you be the judge.





With this makeover, we also take a small step into social media. We will now use Twitter (albeit one way) to send out alerts on the announcements we make and YouTube to place in public domain our press conferences, interviews of our top management, events, such as, town halls and of course, some films aimed at consumer literacy.




The site can be accessed through most browsers and devices; it also meets accessibility standards.



Please save the url of the refurbished site in your favourites as we will give up the existing site shortly and register or re-register yourselves for receiving RSS feeds for uninterrupted alerts from the Reserve Bank.



Do feel free to give us your feedback by clicking on the feedback button on the right hand corner of the refurbished site.



Thank you for your continued support.
