of Credit
HOC 12251:
Considering the present system of opening of Inland Letters of Credit and also
sending and
receiving of the relative communications, the DFS, Ministry of Finance (MoF) MoF
has felt the need for introducing a secure messaging system that would serve as a
platform for sending/receiving intra-Bank as well as inter-Bank messages in
connection with the non-fund-based business of the PSBs – specific guidelines for
opening of Inland Letters of Credit (ILCs) under SFMS platform.
The SFMS is built on the lines of SWIFT [used for overseas financial messaging] but
has many more utilities to offer. The major advantage of SFMS is that it can be used
practically for all purposes of secure communication within the Bank and between
Banks. While the intra-Bank part of SFMS can be used by the Banks to take full
advantage of the secure messaging facility, the inter-Bank messaging part is useful
for applications like Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT), Real Time Gross Settlement
System (RTGS), Delivery Versus Payments (DVP), Centralized
Funds Management System (CFMS) and so on.
Considering the advantages associated with the use of SFMS, the DFS has decided
to make use of SFMS mandatory for the Public Sector Banks (PSBs) for rendering
trade finance services [i.e. Inland Letters of Credit (ILCs) and Inland Bank
Guarantees (IBGs)] in order to establish a safe and secure environment for
conducting trade finance business in the Indian Banking industry.
The process flow for opening/transmitting and receiving Inland Letters of Credit
(ILC) messages through SFMS platform has been detailed in ‗Annexure - I‘ and
‗Annexure – II‘ respectively.
The format of Documentary Credit under SFMS platform is furnished in ‗Annexure–

Statutory Auditors of NPA are changed through manual intervention which is commented
(CSA) by the Central Statutory Auditors. It is, therefore, again reiterated that
while opening the loan accounts, branches should ensure the
correctness of the values fed against various parameters in the CBS
system.
3. Valuation of securities:
As per the extent guidelines, valuation of the immovable properties to
be done once in three years and such values are to be fed in the CBS
system. However, it is observed that in certain cases the branches have
not obtained the latest valuation report and fed in the system, which is
commented by the Central Statutory Auditors. It is, therefore, directed
that wherever the valuation report taken by the branches are more than
three years old, immediate steps to be taken for taking latest valuation
report and to feed the latest value in the system. Wherever the
deterioration in the value of securities like plant & machinery/vehicles
are noticed, current value should be fed in the system.

persons in the presence of bank official either in the branch or at the
office of the depositor.
A request letter from the borrower in their letter head for sanction of

obtained and kept on record. Wherever required, a properly worded
Board resolution should be obtained.

the system will generate a reference number and customers as well as the
Branch/RACPC/Regional Office/Head Office can track the status of their

to the customers with the reference number as soon as the applications are
entered in the portal/status modification.

For financing goods, Lorry Receipts (LRs) and Railway Receipts (RRs) are
preferred documents by Banks for evidence of movement of goods.
However, in the following circumstances delivery challans are enclosed by
the suppliers to the bills drawn on the buyer as an evidence of change of
hands of specified goods and the bankers do accept the delivery challan for
financing purposes :
For financing purposes, the bankers prefer Lorry receipts and Railway
Receipts because these have the status of title to goods and are endorsed
in Bank‘s favour by the supplier. On receipt of payment the banker
endorses the LRs/RRs in favour of the borrower/buyer facilitating delivery of
the goods to the buyer. In respect of Bills Purchase and LCs issued, if the
payment is not forthcoming the banker is entitled to take possession of
goods himself. Whereas in the case of delivery challan the goods stand
delivered to the buyer.
Further, in the case of delivery challan, there is ample scope for production
of fabricated challan by the borrower without actual movement/delivery of
goods - inspection of goods is indispensible.

as hitherto, for the single/multiple claims lodged by it on a particular day
with due certification at the end of D&U that D&U covers all the claims
lodged by it on particular claim date. The Regional Office shall generate the
D&U, as per the revised procedure, on the following day of the
lodgement of claim/claims with a view to ensure that all the claims
lodged on a particular day are duly captured. For the purpose of generation
of D&U, Regional Office will login to
CGTMSE portal and then select ―Report & MIS module>claims Declaration

been lodged on line for which D&U is required to be generated. A scanned
copy of the said duly stamped and signed D&U must be invariably
sent immediately to CGTMSE by email at
claimedeclaration@cgtmse.in to enable CGTMSE to initiate processing of
claim, followed by hard copy to be sent by courier as hitherto. All the pages

112 V-DOCTOR Total repayment period including moratorium period shall not exceed seven
years in case of term loan. Maximum moratorium period of 18 months is
allowed.
115 Quick Mortality While conducting the Annual Financial Inspection (AFI) of our Bank, the RBI
case inspectors have remarked that there is increase in the number of QMCs,
most of them pertain to branch sanctions and the main reason for QMCs is
insufficient income.
Reporting insufficient income as the main reason for QMCs reflects on the
quality of credit proposal appraisal. The future cash flows by the borrower
were not assessed correctly and the credit decision were taken. This has
resulted in failure of the project/unit and the borrowers have defaulted in
repayment of the loan.
Life Insurance One of the salient features of the V-Nivas Home Loan scheme is to extend
118 coverage to free life
borrowers under insurance coverage to the borrowers. Previously the bank had entered into
VNivas Home Loan an agreement with M/s Kotak Mahindra Old Life Insurance Ltd. for
scheme extending life insurance coverage and the same expired on 31.03.2014.
The Bank has now entered into a tie up with M/s ING Vysya Life Insurance
Co. Ltd.
to provide life insurance coverage which is valid form 02.04.2014 to

15019 Sharing of The guidelines issued by the Reserve Bank of India regarding
recovery under sharing of recovery under Multiple Banking Arrangement.
Multiple Banking ―The Master circular – Prudential Norms on Income Recognition,
Arrangement Asset Classification and Provisioning pertaining to Advances
requires that the banks
participating in the consortium should arrange to get their share of
recovery transferred from the lead bank or get an express consent
from the lead bank for the transfer of their share of recovery, to
ensure proper asset classification in their respective books.
Further, in terms of Reserve Bank of India circular dated February
26, 2014, on ‗Framework for Revitalising Distressed Assets in the
Economy – Guidelines on Joint Lenders‘ Forum(JLF) and Corrective
Action Plan (CAP)‘ (HOC 14096 dated
25.04.2014), if a loan account (with aggregate exposure of Rs 1000
million) is reported as SMA – 2 account, then it is obligatory for
banks to form a JLF for the purpose of putting in place CAP. When
such a JLF is formed, if an escrow maintaining bank under JLF/CDR
mechanism does not appropriate proceeds of
repayment by the borrower among the lenders as per agreed terms
resulting into down gradation of asset classification of the account
in books of other
lenders, the account with the escrow maintaining bank will attract
the asset classification which is lowest among the lending member
banks, and also
accelerated provisions. The above norms on JLF are applicable even
for loans under multiple banking arrangement. In addition, looking
at the benefits of JLF framework, lenders are expected to form JLF
even for cases having aggregate exposure less than Rs 1000
million.‖
