Bombay Mercantile Bank recovered bad loans worth over Rs 6 crore in 2020-21 and expects better realisation going forward, a senior official has said. Recovery of NPAs (non-performing assets) has been a major thrust area for the bank. The bank has taken specific steps for reduction of NPAs by formulating policy for recovery of NPA through personal follow-ups and other legal measures, Zeeshan Mehdi, Chairman, Bombay Mercantile Co-operative Bank, said in his address at the annual general meeting (AGM).

“These efforts have resulted in the bank posting a recovery of Rs 6.10 crore, in NPA accounts. Due to the pendency of cases in various courts whose functioning was hampered because of the pandemic, resulting in delays in final verdicts, the recoveries in many NPA accounts could not be achieved as targeted,” he added.

Mehdi said the bank expects a healthy recovery of NPAs during the ensuing year.

The bank’s gross bad loans stood at 6.61 per cent and the net NPAs were 5.11 per cent during FY21.

The NPA is slightly higher due to the pandemic, however, it is still within the permissible limit of the regulators, he added.

The CRAR (capital to risk-weighted assets ratio) stood at 17.26 per cent against 16.88 per cent in the preceding fiscal.

BMC Bank registered a net profit of Rs 3.78 crore in FY21. Mehdi said the bank posted a second consecutive year of profit, however, the target was much higher.

The total business of the bank during 2020-21 stood at Rs 3,467.55 crore, of which deposits were Rs 2,363.38 crore and advances Rs 1,104.17 crore.

“During the year, the bank has been allotted its own IFSC code by the RBI, with all branches using exclusive IFSC codes. The bank is now a direct member of IFTAS and has been given permission to use INFINET connectivity to provide a variety of services to our customers and our treasury department,” the chairman said.

These services are RTGS, NEFT, SGL account with RBI, NDS-OM, NDS-Call, SWAP, LAF and MSF. Earlier, the bank did not have such facilities, he added.

The implementation of these digital initiatives would result in the enhancement of the customer experience, he said.

“The bank is moving ahead digitally at a fast pace…we are launching Mobile-App to our valued customers to meet the emerging business challenges and be at par with the best in the industry,” Mehdi added. PTI KPM BAL BAL

Here are the top 5 bank fixed deposit interest rates, BFSI News, ET BFSI

The fixed deposit (FD) is one of the most popular investment avenues. Many investors prefer bank FDs over equities as the former are considered safe. The return earned from a bank FD is fixed and known at the time of investing unlike in case of equity.

Fixed deposits are also known as term deposits. This is because money is deposited with a bank for a fixed predetermined time period or term. Here are certain things that you must know while opening an FD account.

You can open a term deposit account with a bank where one already has a savings account. Some banks may allow you to open an FD account without having to open a savings bank account. However, you will be required to undergo a know-your-customer (KYC) process in case the bank allows you to place an FD without a savings account. You will be asked to provide self-attested photocopies of ID proof such as PAN, address proof such as Aadhaar, Voter ID card, passport etc. and coloured passport size photographs. You will be required to show the original documents which will be returned immediately post-verification.

  • Minimum and maximum investment amount

The minimum amount needed to open a fixed deposit account varies from bank to bank. However, there is no limit on the maximum amount which one can invest in an FD.The minimum and maximum tenure offered for which an FD can be placed varies from one bank to another. Usually, one can invest in FD for a minimum period of 7 days and for a maximum of 10 years. You can choose the period for which you wish to keep your FD as per your requirement.

All data sourced from Economic Times Intelligence Group (ETIG)
Data as on September 24, 2021
The interest rate offered on fixed deposits (FDs) will depend on the period for which you are investing in the FD and also vary from bank to bank for FDs for the same tenure. Senior citizens are typically offered higher interest rates. To receive the interest payment, you can choose either cumulative option or non-cumulative option.

Under the cumulative option, interest accrued on the deposit is reinvested and paid at the time of maturity along with principal amount.

In the non-cumulative option, interest is credited into the depositors account at the pay-out interval chosen at the time of placing the FD. Generally, one can choose from the options of receiving the interest on monthly, quarterly, half-yearly or annually basis as offered by the bank.

Interest received on FD is fully taxable in the hands of the investor. It will be taxed at the rates applicable to your income tax slabs. TDS will be deducted by the bank if the interest payment in a single financial year exceeds Rs 10,000, as per current tax laws. To avoid TDS, one can submit Form 15G or Form 15H (as applicable) to the bank.In case of any urgent requirements, one can break his/her FD before the maturity date. A penalty may be levied by the bank on premature withdrawals. The penalty amount varies from one bank to another.

While placing a FD, one must check the rules regarding pre-mature withdrawals. Sometimes, banks offer FDs without premature withdrawal facility as well as FDs without penalty on premature withdrawal.

One can use FD as a collateral to obtain a loan. The maximum loan sanctioned is usually a certain percentage of the principal deposit. This percentage may vary bank to bank.Nomination facility for Fixed Deposits (FDs) is also available.At maturity, if no specific instructions are given, most banks automatically renew the FD for the same period for which it was initially placed at the interest rates prevailing on the date the FD matures. If you do not want automatic renewal of your FD, you need to choose this option on the account opening form.

If you have forgotten to mention it, then you can visit the bank branch on the day of maturity and ask them to credit the proceeds into your savings account.

Nowadays banks offer the facility of opening an FD account online via Net banking through your account. One can invest in FD without having to visit a branch physically. However, remember that your bank may not issue you a printed FD receipt/advice if invested online.

DICGC to announce revised date for submission of claims by PMC Bank depositors

[ad_1]

Read More/Less


The Deposit Insurance and Credit Guarantee Corporation (DICGC) has clarified that it will separately communicate the revised date for submission of claims and the procedure to be followed in respect of payment of deposits in the case of the scam-hit Punjab and Maharashtra Co-operative (PMC) Bank.

This clarification comes even as big depositors of PMC Bank were on tenterhooks about submitting a form that requires them to declare the “willingness of depositors to receive insurance claim amount (up to ₹5 lakh) from DICGC.”

The “willingness” clause was interpreted by some of the depositors to mean that they may not receive deposits above ₹5 lakh. Hence, PMC Bank depositors, with deposits above Rs 5 lakh, were reluctant to submit the form.

Now, the Corporation has stated that in the case of PMC Bank, there may be a need to invoke the provisions of Section 18 A (7) (a) of the DICGC (Amendment) Act, 2021.

Also read: Banking venture of Centrum Financial Services christened Unity SFB

As per the aforementioned section, “the Reserve Bank finds it expedient in the interest of finalising a scheme of amalgamation of the insured bank with other banking institution or a scheme of compromise or arrangement or of reconstruction in respect of such insured bank, and communicates to the Corporation accordingly, the date on which the Corporation shall become liable to pay every depositor of such insured bank may further be extended by a period not exceeding ninety days.”

Chander Purswani, President, PMC Depositors Forum, said: ”Our fight was never for ₹5 lakh but for the entire money. We stand by that. We are confident that the RBI and the Centrum-BharatPe combine will not let us down.”

Need for a roadmap

Purswani emphasised that RBI should give a roadmap as to how and when PMC Bank depositors with deposits above ₹5 lakh will get their money back along with accrued interest.

He said PMC Bank has about one lakh depositors with deposits up to ₹5 lakh and about 43,000 depositors with deposits above ₹5 lakh.

RBI had accorded “in-principle” approval to Centrum Financial Services Ltd (CFSL), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Centrum Capital Ltd, on June 18, 2021, to set up a small finance bank (SFB). This approval was in specific pursuance to CFSL’s February 2021 offer in response to PMC Bank’s November 2020 Expression of Interest (EoI) notification.

Unity Small Finance Bank

CFSL has christened its proposed banking venture as Unity Small Finance Bank.

Under the “in-principle” approval, CFSL will first operationalise Unity SFB in 120 days. Thereafter, RBI will place in public domain a draft scheme of amalgamation of PMC Bank with the SFB. The last step will be government’s sanction for the scheme.

DICGC had, on September 21, 2021, asked the depositors of 21 urban co-operative banks (UCBs), including PMC Bank, Sri Gururaghavendra Sahakara Bank, Rupee Co-operative Bank and Kapol Co-Operative Bank, which are currently under the Reserve Bank of India’s All-Inclusive Directions (AID), to contact their banks and submit the declaration of willingness to enable DICGC to make payments.

Buy Zee for a 30% upside, says Emkay

Emkay Global sees an upside of nearly 30% on the stock of Zee Entertainment to a target price of Rs 430 in 12-months time.

Zee and Sony Pictures Networks India (SPNI) have entered into a non-binding term sheet (with a 90-day exclusivity period) for the merger of the two companies. The deal should address investor concerns, and fill the content gaps each of them are currently having.

Emkay Global views the transaction as a big positive as it might resolve a slew of issues relating to corporate governance and investor activism, with the board of directors to be decided by

Sony.

“The merged entity will become the market leader with a comprehensive bouquet of offerings, along with the necessary balance sheet strength to invest in digital businesses and

sports rights. Sony Pictures Networks India emphasis has been on building sports and HSM portfolios, while Zee has been focused on regional, HSM and movie channels,” the brokerage has said.

According to Emkay Global, the merged entity will benefit from increased bargaining power with content producers and distributors; optimization of costs by shutting down tail-end channels, thus, freeing up management bandwidth and costs attached to them; and 3) competitive edge. All these factors should augur well for better valuation, the brokerage says.

“Zee’s underlying broadcasting business has been facing challenges due to the Covid-induced shift toward digital. However, in our view, the merged entity’s comprehensive

offerings will place it ahead of competitors on the growth front,” the brokerage has said.

Buy Zee Entertainment stock says Sharekhan for a target price of Rs 400

Buy Zee Entertainment stock says Sharekhan for a target price of Rs 400

Brokerage firm Sharekhan too has recommended buying the stock of Zee Entertainment with a price target of Rs 400 on the stock. The brokerage feels that the proposed merger would be a strategic fit from a revenue perspective as it would strengthen Zee Entertainment’s portfolio with sport, kids and English movie properties.

“The infusion of growth capital of $1.6 billion by Sony Pictures, the combined entity’s cash balance would increase to $1.8 billion, which would be used to accelerate its digital platform growth and invest in premier content including sports. We believe that corporate governance concerns will get addressed with the controlling stake of Sony Pictures and this will trigger multiple re-ratings for Zee Entertainment. The stock is currently trading at a reasonable valuation at 20x/18x of FY2023E/FY2024E earnings estimates. Hence, we maintain a Buy rating on Zee Entertainment with a revised rice target of Rs. 400,” the brokerage has said.

Disclaimer

The recommendation of the Zee Entertainment is taken from the brokerage reports of Sharekhan and Emkay Global. The stock has run-up significantly and hence investors may also want to exercise caution. Investing in equities poses a risk of financial losses. Investors must therefore exercise due caution.
