INTRODUCTION
URBAN CO-OPERATIVE BANKS
Primary (urban) co-operative banks play an important role in meeting the growing
credit needs of urban and semi-urban areas. UCBs mobilize savings from the middle
and lower income groups and purvey credit to small borrowers, including weaker
sections of the society. The number of UCBs stood at 1,872 at end-March 2005,
including 79 salary earners' banks and 119 Mahila banks. Total number of scheduled
UCBs was 55 at end-March 2005. Scheduled UCBs are under closer regulatory and
supervisory framework of the Reserve Bank.Various entities in the urban co-operative
banking sector display a high degree of heterogeneity in terms of deposits/asset base,
areas of operation and nature of business. In view of its importance, it is imperative
that the sector emerges as a sound and healthy network of jointly owned,
democratically controlled and professionally managed institutions. In order to achieve
these objectives, the Reserve Bank took a series of policy initiatives in 2004-05. The
most significant initiative in this regard was the Vision Document and Medium-Term
Framework (MTF) for UCBs. With a view to protecting depositors' interests and
avoid contagion on the one hand, and enabling UCBs to provide useful service to
local communities and public at large on the other, a draft Vision Document was
prepared and placed in public domain for eliciting comments. Based on the feedback
received from different quarters, the necessary modifications were vehicleried out in
the vision document to evolve as the medium-term framework for the sector
Regulatory Initiatives for UCBs. UCBs have grown rapidly since the early 1990s.
During the phase of rapid expansion, however, the sector showed certain weaknesses
arising out of lack of sound corporate governance, unethical lending, and
comparatively high level of loan defaults, inability to operate in a liberalized and
competitive environment. The Reserve Bank, therefore, has been striving to harness
the growth of UCBs with appropriate application of prudential regulation and
supervision to safeguard the interests of depositors. The Reserve Bank initiated
several regulatory measures during 2004-05 to ensure the growth of UCBs .

REGULATIONS AND SUPERVISION UCBs

The Reserve Bank is entrusted with the responsibility of regulation and supervision of
the banking related activities of primary co-operative banks under the Banking
Regulation (B.R.) Act, 1949 As Applicable to Co-operative Societies (AACS). Other
aspects such as incorporation, registration, administration, management and windingup of UCBs are supervised and regulated by the respective State Governments
through Registrars of Co-operative Societies (RCS) under the Co-operative Societies
Acts of the respective States. UCBs with a multi state presence are registered under
the Multi State Co-operative Societies Act, 2002 and are regulated and supervised
jointly by the Central Government through Central Registrar of Co-operative
Societies and the Reserve Bank. The current legislative framework provides for dual
control over UCBs. For resolving problems arising out of dual control regime, a draft
legislative bill proposing certain amendments to the Banking Regulation Act, 1949
(AACS), based on the recommendations of the High Powered Committee on UCBs,
was forwarded to the Government. Pending the amendment to the Act, the Reserve
Bank is entering into a regulatory arrangement with the State Governments through
Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to facilitate proper and coordinated regulation
and supervision of UCBs. MoUs have already been signed between the Reserve Bank
and three States that have a large network of UCBs, viz., Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat and
Karnataka. As a follow-up to the signing of MoUs, the Reserve Bank has constituted
TAFCUBs in these States. Efforts are being made to enter into MoUs with other
States having a large number of UCBs.

LICENSING OF NEW BANKS/BRANCHES

Consequent upon the easing of licensing norms in May 1993, more than 800 licences
were issued (up to June 2001) for setting up urban cooperative banks. However, close
to one-third of these newly licensed UCBs became financially weak within a short
period There was, thus, a need to moderate the pace of growth of this sector,
particularly given the vexatious issue of dual control over CBs. The Reserve Bank
proposed certain amendments to the Banking Regulation Act, 1949 (AACS) to
overcome the difficulties arising out of dual control. Pending enactment of these
amendments it was announced in the Annual Policy Statement for 2004-05 that
issuance of fresh licences would be considered only after a comprehensive policy on
UCBs including an appropriate legal and regulatory framework for the sector, is put in
place and a policy for improving the financial health of the urban co-operative
banking sector is formulated. Accordingly, at present, applications for banking
licence, including licence for opening of new branches, are not considered.

SUPERVISION OF UCBS
Inspections
The on site financial inspection vehicleried out by the Reserve Bank continues to be
one of the main instruments of supervisions over UCBs. The Reserve Bnak
vehicleried out statutory inspections of 812 UCBs during 2004-05 as against of 848
UCBs conducted during the previous year.
Off-site Surveillance
The off-site surveillance system (OSS) for supervision was made applicable to all
scheduled UCBs from March 2001.The returns for OSS were reviewed and a revised
set of 8 returns was prescribed from March 2004.The OSS returns of UCBs are
designed to monitor compliance and obtain information from them on areas of
prudential regulations. The main objective of the OSS returns is to obtain relevant
information on areas of prudential interest, address the management information
needs, strengthen the management information system (MIS) capabilities within the
reporting institutions and to sensitise bank managements about concerns of the
supervisory authority. Compliance monitored through these returns covers assets and
liabilities, earnings, assets quality, sector/ segment-wise analysis of advances,
concentration of exposures, connected or related trending and capital adequacy. These
concerns earlier were being addressed through periodical on-site inspections of banks
undertaken at intervals ranging from one to non-scheduled banks with deposit base
base of over Rs.100 crore from June 2004.

OPERATIONAL AND FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE OF URBAN

CO-OPERATIVE BANKS
Operations of UCBs (both scheduled and none scheduled) have expanded rapidly
since 1966, when they were brought under the purview of the Banking Regulation
Act, 1949 (AACS). Deposits and advances of UCBs Increased sharply from RS.153
crore and Rs.167 crore, respectively, in 1966 to Rs1, 02,089 crore and Rs, 65,951
crore ,respectively, at end March 2003, registering an annual compound growth rate
of 19.2 per cent and 17.5 per cent, respectively .The annual compound growth rate of
deposits and Advances, however, slowed down to 1.4 per cent and 0.7 per cent,
respectively, during last two years, i,e.,2003-04 and 2004-05.

REGULATION OF RURAL CO-OPERATIVE BANKS/CENTRAL COOPERATIVE BANKS

Licensing of State Co-operative Banks / Central Co-operative Banks
No new licence was granted during 2004-05. Total number of licensed State cooperative banks (StCBs) and Central co-operative banks (CCBs) Were 13 and 73,
respectively, at end-March 2005, show cause notices Were issued to six CCBs in
2004-05 for rejection of their licence applications As at end-March 2005, nine CCBs
were placed under the Reserve Banks Directions prohibiting them from granting
loans and advances to certain areas and/or accepting fresh deposits. No scheduled
status was granted to any StCB during the year for inclusion in the Second Schedule
under Section 42 of the RBI Act, 1934. Total number of scheduled StCBs remained at
16at end-March 2005.

SUPERVISION OF THE RURAL CO-OPERATIVE STRUCTURE

NABARD undertakes inspection of RRBs, StCBs and CCBs in accordance with the
powers vested under Section 35(6) of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949 (AACS).
Besides, NABARD conducts voluntary inspection of SCARDBs, Apex weaver Cooperative Societies and State Co-operative Marketing Federations. The frequency of
statutory/voluntary inspections by NABRAD is being increased from 2005-06.
Accordingly, statutory inspections of all StCBS as well as of those CCBs and RRBs
which are not complying with minimum capital requirements as required under the
B.R.Act, 1949 (AACS) and the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934, respectively, and
voluntary inspections of all SCARDBs will be conducted on an annual basis. The
statutory inspections of CCBs and RRBs with positive net worth as also the voluntary
inspections of Apex co-operative Societies/Federations would continue to be conduct
once in two years. With the introduction of annual inspection, the system of
conducting quick inspection has been dispensed with. Inspection of 326 banks
(12StCBs, 181CCBs and 133 RRBs) and voluntary inspection of 11 SCARDBs and
four Apex institutions were vehicleried out during the year.

13

STATE CO-OPERATIVE BANKS

Operation of state Co-operative

Assets/liabilities of StCbs grew at a higher rate during 2003-04 as compared with the
preceding year. Deposits of StCBs grew significantly during the year. Most of such
deposits were deployed in investments, a trend which wa observed in respect of other
financial institution as well. Many financial institutions increased their exposure to
investments for making capital gains in a declining interest rate scenario. Loans and
advances extended by StCBs. However,decelerated further from the low growth
witnessed in the previous year.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE OF STATE CO-OPERATIVE BANKS

Interest income of the StCBs declined by Rs 267 crore during 2003-04.This, however,
was more than compensated by a sharp increase in other income, on the one hand,
and decline in interest expense ded and operating expenses, on the other. As a result,
operating profits of StCBs improved marginally during the year. However, a sharp
increase in provisions and contingencies resulted in declined in net profits by Rs 20.6
crore at end-March 2004 from Rs.343 crore at end of the previous year.twenty seven
out of 31 StCBs earned profits, while four incurred losses during the year. Twenty
StCBs earned higher Profits during 2003-04, while seven earned lower profits. Losses
incurred by three loss making StCBs declined while it increased for one.

14

CENTRAL CO-OPERATIVE BANKS

OPERATION OF CENTRAL CO-OPERATIVE BANKS
Total Assets and Liabilities of Central co-operative banks (CCBs) expanded at a lower
rate during 2003-04 as compared with the previous year mainly due to slowdown of
deposits, borrowings and internal generation. The impact of this slowdown was felt
mainly on loan and advances, which grew at a much lower rate as compared with the
previous year. Investments, however, increased sharply, a trend which was observed
in respect of other financial intermediaries as well. The structure of liabilities and
assets of CCBs remained broadly unchanged.

PRIMARY AGRICULTURAL CREDIT SOCIETIES (PACS)

A primary agricultural credit society (PACS) is the foundation of the co-operative

credit system on which the superstructure of the short term co-operative credit
system rests. It is the PACS which directly interface with individual farmers, provide
short-term and medium-term credit, supply agriculture inputs, distribute consumer
articles and arrange for making of produce of its members through a co-operative
marketing society.

CO-OPERATIVE BANKS
INTRODUCTION

Co-operative banks are an important constituent of the Indian financial system,

judging by the role assigned to them, the expectations they are supposed to fulfills,
their number, and the number of offices they operate. The co-operative movement
originated in the West, but the importance that such banks have assumed in India is
rarely paralleled anywhere else in the world. Their role in rural financing continues to
be important even today, and their business in the urban areas also has increased in
recent years mainly due to the sharp increase in the number of primary co-operative
banks.

ORIGIN AND GROWTH OF CO-OPERATIVE BANKS

Co-operative banks are a part of the vast and powerful superstructure of co-operative
institutions which are engaged in the tasks of production, processing, marketing,
distribution, servicing, and banking in India. The beginning of co-operative banking
in this country dates back to about 1904 when official efforts were initiated to create a
new type of institution based on the principles of co-operative organization and
management, which were considered to be suitable for solving the problems peculiar
to Indian conditions. In rural areas, as far as agricultural and related activities were
concerned, the supply of credit, particularly institutional credit, was woefully
inadequate, and unorganized money market agencies, such as money lenders, were
providing credit often at exploitatively high rates of interest. The co-operative banks
were conceived in order to substitute such agencies, provide adequate short-term and
long-term institutional credit at reasonable rates of interest, and to bring about
integration of the unorganized and organized segments of the Indian money market.

16

When the national economic planning began in India, co-operative banks were made
an integral part of the institutional framework of community development and
extension services, which was assigned the important role of delivering the fruits of
economic planning at the grass root levels. In other words, they became a part of the
arrangements for decentralized plan formulation and implementation for the purpose
of rural development in general and agricultural development in particular. Today cooperative banks continue to be a part of a set of institutions which are engaged in
financing rural and agricultural development. This set-up comprises the RBI,
NABARD, commercial banks, regional rural banks, and co-operative banks. The
relative importance of co-operative banks in financing agricultural and rural
development has undergone some changes over the years. Till 1969, they increasingly
substituted the informal sector lenders. After the nationalization of banks and the
creation of RRBs and NABARD, however, their relative share has somewhat
declined. All the institutional sources contributed about 4 per cent of the total rural
credit till 1954. The contribution increased to 62 per cent by 1990.
The share of co-operative banks in this institutional lending has declined from 80 per
cent in 1969 to about 42 per cent at present. The percentage of rural population
covered by the agricultural credit co-operatives was 7.8 in 1951, 36 in 1961, and
about 65 per cent at present

GOVERNMENT INITIATIVES TO STRENGTHEN THE

DEVELOPMENT OF CO-OPERATIVE BANKS

Even before the submission of the Khusro Committee Report, the government and the
RBI had initiated certain measures to strengthen the development of co-operative
banks. Some of these policy initiatives were as follows:
(i) The NABARD had formulated a scheme for the reorganization of PACSs and the
implementation of this scheme had started in those states which have accepted it.
(ii) The programme for development of selected PACSs into truly multi-purpose cooperative societies has been implemented in many states and Union Territories.
(iii) In addition to such programmes, certain state governments like Andhra Pradesh,
Madhya Pradesh West Bengal had also initiated development programmes to
strengthen the working of the co-operative credit institutions at the base level.
(iv) On the basis of their financial position as on 30 June 1987, 175 CCBs and 7 SCBs
in the country were identified as 'weak' banks and brought under the programme of
rehabilitation which, however, did not really work quite well.
(v) With a view to enabling weak banks which were either ineligible or were on the
verge of becoming ineligible for refinance ,a 12-Point Action Programme had been
formulated and circulated by NABARD to all the state governments.

19

FEATURES OF CO-OPERATIVE BANKS

Some distinguishing characteristics of the nature of co-operative banks are as follows:

(i) They are organized and managed on the principles of co-operation, self-help, and
mutual help. They function with the rule of "one member, one vote".
(ii) They function on "no profit, no loss" basis. For commercial banks also,
profitability is no longer the main objective, but in their case this change has been
brought about as a result of social or public policy, while co-operative banks, by their
very nature, do not pursue the goal of profit maximization.
(iii) Co-operative banks perform all the main banking functions of deposit
mobilization, supply of credit and provision of remittance facilities. However, it is
said that the range, of services offered is narrower and the degree of product
differentiation in each main type of service is much less in the case co-operative
banks, compared to commercial banks.
In other words, co-operative banks are characterized by functional specialization. It
should be added that this is true with much less force now, because many changes
have taken place in the co-operative banking system since the Banking Commission
arrived at the above-mentioned conclusion. For example,co-operative banks now
provide housing loans also. The UCBs provide working capital loans and term loans
as well. The State Co-operative Banks (SCBs), Central Co-operative Banks (C0)3s)
and Urban Co-operative Banks (UCBs) can normally extend housing loans up to Rs
one 1akh to an individual. The scheduled UCBs, however, can lend up to Rs three lacs
for housing purpose. The UCBs can provide advances against shares and debentures
also.
(iv) As said earlier, co-operative banks do banking business mainly in the agricultural
and rural sector. However, certain types of banks viz., UCBs, SCBs and CCBs operate
in semi-urban, urban, and metropolitan areas also. The urban and non-agricultural
business of these banks has grown over the years. The co-operative banks demonstrate
20

a shift from rural to urban, while the commercial banks, from urban to rural.
(v) Co-operative banks are perhaps the first government-sponsored, governmentsupported, and government-subsidized financial agency in India. They get financial
and other help from the RBI, NABARD, Central government and state governments.
They constitute the "most favored" banking sector with no risk of nationalization. For
commercial banks, the RBI is a lender of last resort, but for co-operative banks, it is
the lender of first resort which provides financial resources in the form of contribution
to the initial capital (through state governments), working capital, and refinance. The
promotional role of the RBI can be seen in respect of co-operative banks, and this role
supersedes its regulatory role, in respect of these banks.
A corollary of government help to co-operative banks is that there is much
government intervention in their working. Co-operative banks are subject primarily to
the control, audit, supervision and periodic inspection of the co-operative department
of the state government under the Cooperative Societies Act, but less rigorously, by
the RBI under the Banking Regulation Act. The RBI and the state government lay
down rules for investment of surplus resources, reserves, and the loan policy of cooperative banks. Consequently, compared to commercial banks, they have less
freedom and flexibility in conducting their operations.
(vi) Co-operative banks belong to the money market as well as to the capital market.
Primary agricultural credit societies provide short-term and medium-term loans. Land
Development Banks LDBs) provide long-term loans, DCBs meet working capital as
well as fixed capital requirements, and SCBs and CCBs also provide both short-term
and term loans. Similarly, they accept short-term and long-term deposits, and some of
them mobilize resources through the issue of debentures.
(vii) Co-operative banks are financial intermediaries only partially. The sources of
their funds resources) are: (a) Central and state governments, (b) the RBI and
NABARD, (e) other cooperative institutions, (d) ownership funds, and (e) deposits or
debenture issues. It is interesting to note that intra-sectoral flows of funds are much
greater in co-operative banking than in commercial banking. Inter-bank deposits,
21

borrowings, and credi\t form a significant part of assets and liabilities of co-operative
banks. This means that intra-sectoral competition is absent and intra-sectoral
integration is high for co-operative bank.
However, co-operative banks face stiff competition from commercial banks and other
financial intermediaries. Till their nationalization, commercial banks did not pose any
competition to co-operative banks. In fact, till then, certain areas of operations were
deliberately left to co-operative banks. But recently, the competition from LIC and
small-savings organization has become quite tough, and co-operative banks are in a
disadvantageous position in this area of inter-sectoral competition.
(viii) Co-operative banks have a federal structure of three-tier linkages. Primary credit
societies are unit banks; many DCBs also are unit banks. But SCBs, DCBs (CCBs),
and SLDBs, PLDBs and many DCBs have a number of branches. It can be said that
each co-operative institution in each tier is a separate entity with definite jurisdiction
and has an independent board of management.
(ix) Some co-operative banks are scheduled banks, while others are non-scheduled
banks. For instance, SCBs and some DCBs are scheduled banks but other cooperative banks are non-scheduled banks. At present, 28 SCBs and 11 DCBs with
Demand and Time Liabilities over Rs 50 crore each are included in the Second
Schedule of the RBI Act.
(x) As said earlier, co-operative banks accept current, saving, and fixed or time
deposits from individuals and institutions including banks. Some DCBs numbering
about 40 in 1989 are allowed open and maintain NRI accounts in rupees but not in
foreign currency. Deposits mobilized by them in a given area are used for financing
activities in that locality. Some co-operative banks, namely, Land Development Banks
(LDBs), issue debentures to raise resources for their operations. These debentures are
secured by mortgaging lands belonging to borrowers from LDBs and are often
guaranteed by the state government. They are regarded as -tee securities and are
treated on par with government securities for making advances. There are three types
of such debentures: ordinary, rural, and special. These debentures are almost entirely
22

subscribed by such institutional investors as banks, LIC, and the government.

(xi) The co-operative banks are subject to CRR and liquidity requirements as other
scheduled non-scheduled banks are. However, they are required to maintain the CRR
and SLR only at level of three per cent and 25 per cent respectively, at present. They
are subject to SCCs also. Further, the DCBs have been advised to lend 60 per cent of
their total advances to the priority ors. It means that the target for priority sector
lending has been fixed at a higher level for these banks compared to commercial
banks. Similarly, while the CAS has now been withdrawn in the of commercial banks,
it is still applicable to the DCBs, although in a liberalized form. With effect from
January 1989, they have to seek prior approval of the RBI for grant of advances to a
single party exceeding certain credit limits, which vary from bank to bank depending
on their size
(xii) Since 1966, the lending and deposit rates of commercial banks have-been
directly regulated by the RBI. Although the RBI had powers to regulate the 'rates of
co-operative banks also, these powers were not exercised much till about 1979, in
respect of their lending rates. From the early years till 1979, the SCBs and CCBs were
expected to provide finance for agricultural and allied activities to the ultimate
borrowers at reasonable rates, i.e., at concessional rates, by virtue of their being
entitled to concessional refinance from the RBI. In case of their non-agricultural
advances for the purpose of production and marketing activities of cottage and small
scale industries, the RBI imposed certain conditions as regards rates to be charged by
these banks for such purposes. In respect of their non-agricultural advances, they were
free to charge any rates at their discretion. The RBI did not regulate at all the lending
rates of DCBs, because of which there was little uniformity in the rates charged by
different DCBs. In early 1979, the RBI decided to maintain parity with regard to the
rates of interest on all agricultural advances irrespective of the credit agency. As a
result, the rates of interest charged to the ultimate borrowers by co-operative banks
were also brought in line with those charged by commercial banks. Accordingly, the
RBI advised all SCBs in 1980 to charge certain ceiling rates on agricultural advances.
While ceiling rates were prescribed for short-term agricultural advances, the lending
23

rates for medium-term agricultural credit were stipulated as fixed rates. Similarly,
lending rates of co-operative banks including DCBs for non-agricultural advances
also became subject to the directives issued by the RBI with effect from 1981. As a
result of measures adopted by the RBI in 1980 and 1981, a certain amount of
uniformity has been brought about with regard to the lending rates charged by cooperative banks in different states, and between commercial banks and co-operative
banks.
However, since 1974, the deposit rates of co-operative banks including DCBs, have
been regulated by the RBI. To begin with, the RBI policy in this respect was to
specify that the rates prescribed for commercial banks should be considered as the
minimum to be offered by the cooperative banks. This was unlike the directives in the
case of commercial banks for which fixed rates have been stipulated for different
types of deposits. Their current accounts were also excluded from the purview of the
directive, while commercial banks were prohibited from paying interest on current
accounts. This, however, led to relatively higher rates being paid by co-operative
banks on their deposits which adversely affected the deposit mobilization efforts of
the commercial banks. Therefore, the RBI once again changed its policy in 1974 and
began to direct co-operative banks not to pay interest at rates in excess of certain
percentages over the minimum rates prescribed by the RBI for commercial banks. The
ceilings laid down over the minimum rate were 0.25, 0.5, and 1.0 per cent with regard
to SCBs, CCBs, and Primary Agricultural Credit Societies (PACSs) respectively, on
term and saving deposits. Likewise, they have been prohibited since 1975, from
paying interest at a rate exceeding 0.5 per cent per annum on current accounts.
deposits up to 14 days, and those subject to withdrawal or repayment after a notice of
14 days or less. The latter facility, however, has been withdrawn with effect from
March 1989 in respect of DCBs. In the recent past; the RBI has introduced changes in
interest rates of co-operative banks also along with changes in interest rates of
commercial banks. The interest rates structure of cooperative banks is quite complex.
The rates charged by them depend upon the type of bank, and vary from state to state.
(xiii) Although the main aim of the co-operative banks is to provide cheaper credit to
the members, and not to maximize profits, they may access the money market to
24

improve their income so that they remain viable. This is in keeping with the opening
up of the non-farm sector to them in the recent past. Their need to access money
market arises due to a variety of factors. First, CCBs are mainly in the field of
financing seasonal agricultural operations, which creates cycles of flows of funds.
Second, the short-term agricultural loans are given at a concessional rate of interest
whereas interest rates paid on deposits by co-operative banks are higher than those
paid by the commercial banks. It is true that they get concessional refinance from the
NABARD, but its availability depends upon fulfilling conditions such as minimum
involvement, non-overdue cover, etc. Similarly, many DCBs often have surplus funds
which they mostly keep with the SCBs at a fixed rate of interest. There is, therefore, a
need for co-operative banks to access money market to deploy their short-term funds
profitably and cross-subsidise their lending operations.
(xiv) Co-operative banks (COBs), in short, have played a pivotal role in the
development of short-term and long-term rural credit structure in India over the years.
The co-operative credit endeavor is said to be the first ever attempt at micro-credit
dispensation in India. The entire cooperative credit system covers more than 74 per
cent of rural credit outlets, and it has a market share of about 46 per cent of total rural
credit in the country. From being the providers of loans for redemption of debt, COBs
have gone on to meet the investment requirements of all activities in rural areas. The
co-operative credit structure had a membership of 1.3 crore, net owned funds of Rs
3191 crore, and outstanding loans and advances of Rs 17261 crore in 20012. The
COBs have borne the major share of the task of widening institutional agricultural
credit because their retail outlets are so widespread and far flung that no other type of
agency can percolate to all corners of the country as COBs have done. However, too
much intervention by the State in day-to-day management has contributed to the lack
of involvement and ownership of people in their functioning. The COBs need to
become member-driven banks. There is also a need to do away with the duality of
control over them by the RBI and state government. They need support in respect of
infrastructure, resource base, professional management, etc.

SALIENT FEATURES OF THE OPERATION OF CO-OPERATIVE

BANKING' SYSTEM
A few salient features of the operations of the co-operative banking system which
emerge from this, and related information are as follows:
(1) There was an increase in the number of all types of co-operative banks except the
CCBs (which declined), during the two decades after 1951. During the 1970s and
1980s, the number of all types of banks except thy PACSs remained constant; the
number of the latter declined drastically. As a result, the total number of co-operative
banks increased till 1970 and declined thereafter. The co-operative banks now
operating in India outnumber the commercial banks. At present, we have about 297
commercial banks (including RRBs) compared to about 92,571 co-operative banks
including the PACSs and 3101 co-operative banks excluding the PACSs. In 1989, the
total number of offices of co-operative banks was 1,02,184 including those of PACSs
and 15,184 excluding them, the latter being one-fourth the size of the total number of
offices of commercial banks. Similarly, the deposits and credit of co-operative banks
were about 15 per cent and 35 per cent respectively of those of commercial banks in
1988-89. In 1996, the total number of offices of co-operative banks was 1, 10,137
including those of PACSs and 20,137 excluding them, the latter being about 32 per
cent of the offices of the commercial banks. Similarly, the deposits and credit of cooperative banks were about 14 per cent and 29 per cent respectively of those
commercial banks in 1994-95. The co-operative banks excluding PACs had the total
deposits of Rs 2, 12,859 crore, or about 17 per cent of the total deposits of scheduled
commercial banks in 200-03. Similarly, their total outstanding credit was Rs 1, 81,912
crore or about 25 per cent of commercial bank credit in that year. The SBI alone has a
far higher amount of deposits than the whole of the co-operative banking sector. It
follows that co-operative banking, unlike commercial banking, is small-scale banking
and it does not suffer from the concentration of business in the hands of a few. Table
9.2 gives an idea about the average (per bank) size of different types of co-operative
banks in 1950-51, and 1994-95 and 2002-03 in terms of deposits and credit. The
average size has increased over the years.

26

(2) Deposits, credit, working capital and other indicators of all types of co-operative
banks and the co-operative banking sector as a whole have also grown manifold over
the period, 1951 to 2003. Their growth has not been uniform over the span of 53
years. On the whole, the annual rate of growth of all co-operative banks (in terms of
deposits) has varied between 13 to 19 per cent in different during 1961-1986.
(3) If we rank different types pf banks, it would be found that in terms of deposits,
CCBs were the most important, followed by UCBs, SCBs and PACSs, in that
descending order in 1988-89. However, in terms of outstanding credit, the descending
order in that year was CCBs, PACSs, SCBs, and LDBs. in 1994-95 was CCBs, UCBs
PACSs, SCBs and SLDBs. In period 2002-03, the descending order was UCBs,
CCBs, SCBs, SLBs and PLDBs in term of deposits as well as outstanding credit.
(4) The composition of resources and other operational ratios of different types of cooperative banks differ significantly from those of commercial banks. The ratios also
vary among the cooperative banks themselves.
(5) In the recent past, a number of COBs have come under stress or failed. Many
DCBs are in prevehicleious conditions. Some of them have been found to have
manipulated government securities transactions. In 2003, as many as 163 DCBs out of
the total number of 2104 of DCBs were under liquidation.
(6) The co-operative banks are not allowed to approach debt recovery tribunals, and
are not covered under the Securitization and Reconstruction Ordinance. They are also
not allowed to access capital markets, bullion markets, and derivatives markets.
(7) Capital adequacy requirements for the COBs are, at present, lower than those
prescribed for commercial banks. However, all DCBs and other COBs would have to
achieve the CRAR level which is applicable to commercial banks by March 31, 2005.
They are required to adhere to capital adequacy standards in a phased manner over a
period of three years beginning with 2002.

TYPES OF BUSINESS RESEARCH

In any business organization four types of businesses are most important by which we
can analyze the situation very well. These researches help the researcher to complete
the work in a focused area.

These researches are given below:

Marketing research:
In marketing research it comprises a form of applied sociological study ,which
concentrates on understanding the behaviors, whims and preferences,mainly current
and future.

In this research we analyze the market condition i.e. asking questions about
competitors, market structure, government regulations, economic trends, etc.

In this section we looks that what schemes are available and they will benefited to the
customers.
Advertising research:
This attempts to asses the likely impact of an advertising campaign in advance, and
also measure the success of a recent campaign.

48

Research process
Research process consists of a number of closely relating activities. Such activities
overlap continuously and do not follow a strictly prescribe manner.
Steps involved in Research process
Formulating the research problem:
It is the very first step in research is formulating a research problem. It is well said
that a problem well defined is half-solved.
Extensive literature survey:
Once the problem is formulated, the next step is to write down a brief summary. For
this the researcher should undertake extensive literature survey connected with the
problem. For this purpose the abstracting and indexing journals and published or
unpublished bibliography is the first place to go to.
Preparing the research design:
A research design specifies the methods and procedures for conducting a conducting a
particular study.
Research design can grouped into three categories:
Casual research
Exploratory research
Descriptive research

49

Sample design:
All the items under consideration in any field of inquiry constitute a universe or
population. If we choose right sample then there will be very less chances of facing
errors.

Types of sampling
Deliberate sampling:
In this sampling the sampling methods involves purposive or deliberate selection of
particular unit of the universe for constituting a sample which represent the universe.
Convenience sampling:
In this sampling the population elements are selected for inclusion in the sampling
based on easy of the access.

50

Process of research

Defining the research problem and objectives

Develop a research plan

Collection of the relevant information

Analyzing the information

Present the Findings

Make the decision

51

Research Design
A research design is purely and simply the framework or plan for a study that guides
the collection & analyzing of data.
Research design is some statement or specification of procedures for collecting and
analyzing the information required for the solution of some specific problem.
It provides scientific framework for conduction of some research investigation.
Anticipating and specification are the main characteristics in research design.
It provides information for decision making. Decision regarding what, where, when,
how much and by what means concerning an enquiry as a research study constitutes
in research design.
A research design is the blue print of research work of what we are going to perform
by a research.
Descriptive research design is used and it gives idea about consumption of a product
in relation to customer attitude it gives idea about quality, features of the services,
traits, and liking, disliking, knowledge, interaction, belief, faith and information of
customer.

52

Sampling Techniques
The sample size was so selected that it could be used to explaining the behavior of the
customers of the population of that region. It was selected to be able to identify with
the whole population of the area.
Sampling allows us to concentrate our attention upon a relatively smaller number of
people items and hence to denote energy to ensure that the information collected from
them is accurate. The step involved in determining the sampling technique are:-

A. Defining Population:
The group of individuals or their attributes which can be directly specified
numerically is known as population. It covers elements, units extent and time. For the
given project these are as follows:Element

people

Unit

individuals

Extent

Bareilly

B. Sampling frame:
A list map or other specification of the units which constitute the available
information relating to the population designated for a particular sampling scheme.
25-30 people of Bareilly city are selected for survey. The selection of people was
based on non-probability based judgmental and convenience sampling.

53

C. Sampling errors and data collection errors:

Data collected from a sample will reflect both the underlying reality and the method
used to collect the data. Researcher are interested in measuring this underlying reality,
however they must be aware of possible errors in their data collection method.
When data are collected from a sample an additional source of error is introduced that
of sampling. If the result of a sampling study are found to be incorrect, the tendency is
attributed this to bad sampling technique when in fact the method of data collection
might have been inaccurate.

D. Basic sampling problems:

Definition of the universe being studied three problems must be addressed in
sampling operation. The first problem is to define the universe being studied. The
universe is the entire group of items the researchers wish to study and about which
they plan to generalize. Many decisions must be made if the universe is to be sharply
defined. The second problem to consider is the definition of the variables to be
studied.

E. Sample design:
Sample design is the third problem that must be addressed in any sampling operation.
This subject may be divided into:

Determining sampling problem.

Selecting the sample ratio.

54

Estimating the universe characteristics form the sample data.

F. Selecting the sample:

Another part of the sample design problem is the method of choosing the sample
items. Two general classes of methods exist for selecting samples:

Probability method

Non probability method

Probability sampling methods are in which every item in the universe has a
known chance a probability of being chosen for the sample. The collection of
sample items is independent of the person making the study that is the sampling
operation is controlled objectively so that the items can be chosen strictly at
random.
Non probability sampling methods are those do not provide every item in the
universe with a known chance of being included in the sample. The selection
process is at least partially subjective.

G. Determination of sample size:

The size of the sample has direct relationship with degree of accuracy desired in the
investigation. It depends upon the nature of population as well as the method of
selection. Hence the sample size of 250 respondents was selected from Bareilly.

The communication should be good between the sources and recipient.

We should decide the appropriate question sequence.

We should decide the appropriate wording of questions

We should prepare the type of questions we have to ask.

First, we should know what we want to ask?

We should have the ability to control the situation.

SOURSE OF DATA

DATA COLLECTION
The task of data collection begins after a research problem has been defined and
research plan has been solved.

TYPES OF DATA
Primary data:
Primary data is described as those data that have been recorded or observed by the
researchers for the first time to their knowledge.
Secondary data:
Secondary data are statistics not gathered for the immediate study at hand but for
some other purpose.
Secondary data is classified into two parts:
Internal secondary data:
Internal secondary data is based on the internal information of bank.

FINDING

The organization is dealing with the banking services and has many options to
their program. Serving customers with their needs, wants and satisfaction are
only the way to improve the business and hence profit.

All UCB is putting all effects on their services but as due to lack of
advertisement of the bank, it is facing some sort of problems regarding the
marketing of their services. Hence, keeping in mind they have many changes
in their marketing strategies for the betterment of their services & they are
new running in much structural way.

After going through the findings it is concluded that there are many people
who are not aware about the services of the bank due lack of advertisement but
it is truth that UCB is providing lowest rate of interest.

It is lastly the customers who can make on or destroy a particular business

because in the private sector.

Ultimately it is the customer satisfaction, which works. If the customer is

satisfied it is very easy to capture the market and have an edge over the
competitors, so it is always advisable to move ahead taking customers
convenience into account.

Though UCB bank is putting all of its effort to sustain in this competitive
world but these efforts are not sufficient.

Public sector banks, private sector banks, commercial banks, are the strongest
competitors of the bank.

85

STRENGTHS

Services provided to the customers of urban cooperative Bank is highest in

comparison with its competitors.

The satisfaction level of customers of urban cooperative Bank ranks on the

top.

It provides vehicle loans at the lowest rate of interest.

The processing time taken by the bank is very less.

After documentation, the payment delivered in very less time.

WEAKNESSES

Urban cooperative bank gives very less advertisements in comparison to its

competitors.

Urban cooperative bank has very less number of branches which make it less
reachable.

The working of the bank also poses a problem, in comparison to its

competitors.

86

OPPERTUNITIES

Urban cooperative bank can cover a wider market by advertising more about
its schemes, etc.

The bank and its services can be made more reachable by opening a few more
branches.

The criteria for loan if made more flexible can lead to larger number of loan
customers.

The schemes and services are made more flexible then it will be able to
achieve more market.

If government takes initiative it can perform better.

THREATS

Urban cooperative bank is facing strong competition by other banks such as

public sector banks, state bank, and commercial bank mainly.

Its competitors are providing better facility in comparison to it.

87

CONCLUSION
At the end I would like to say that urban cooperative bank is putting all their
efforts on their services but due to the lack of advertising and lacking of
awareness of the other facilities, it is facing some problems.
Due to the change in the market scenario, bank is changing their marketing
strategies so that it could face the challenges with other banks.
With the expanding credit need of urban areas, urban cooperative bank is
providing lowest rate of interest. Its schemes of loans are attract the customers.
Banks services are up to the mark.
Bank is facing tough competitions with the other financial institutions. Public
sector banks, private sector banks, and state bank of India.
At last this is customers believe and trust that is why bank is firm at its place in
this tough market situation and lacking of marketing ,financing, facilities.

88

SUGGESTION AND RECOMMENDATION

The bank should concentrate on the marketing field.

The advertising of UCB should be good so that the customers can awre of
different schemes of UCB.

The bank should conduct a market survey so that they could analyse the
market situation.

The bank should maintain their credit system. Banks should be more
economical and viable; the progress is existing only is the paper.

Bank should be focus on reality.

With the expanding credit needs of the urban sector, the cooperative banks
have come in actively to meet the credit requirements of this sector.

Urban Co-operative banks should always active by the competition from other
financial institutions.

Urban Co-operative banks are not doing well in all the urban areas; only a few
account for a major part of their business.

Urban cooperative banks still rely very heavily on refinancing facilities from
the government, the RBI, and NABARD. They should have been able to
become self-reliant in respect of resources through deposit mobilization

89

Urban cooperative banks suffer from dangerously low or weak quality of loan
assets, and from highly unsatisfactory recovery of loans. They should have to
strengthen the recovery part of loan.

Urban cooperative banks suffer from infrastructural weaknesses and structural

flaws. They do not look like banks and do not inspire confidence in the
potential members, depositors and borrowers. So they should have to improve
the infrastructural part and structural flaws.

Urban cooperative banks suffer from too much officialisation and

politicization. Undue governmental interventions have prevented them from
developing steadily as a self-reliant and resilient credit system. Most of them
are headed by politicians. Too much officialisation and politicization is not
good in the favor of bank.

Urban cooperative banks unduly depend on government capital rather than

member capital. There is no active participation of their members in their
working, which can come about if they work with members money rather
than government largesse. Its members should take active participation in its
working capital.

Urban cooperative banks should not have been resorting to unethical practices.
There are many regulators for them, but still there are many lacunae in their
regulation. In fact, the existence of multiple regulatory authorities has come in
the way of effective regulation, control, and monitoring.

Government should formulate a scheme for the reorganization of and the

urban cooperative banks implementation of this scheme.

The programme for development of selected urban cooperative banks into

truly multi-purpose co-operative societies has been implemented in many
states and Union Territories.

90

In addition to such programmes, certain state governments should also

initiated development programmes to strengthen the working of the Urban cooperative credit institutions at the base level.

Urban cooperative banks should maintain their financial position so that they
can sustain in this competitive bank.

Government should take the stock of the performance of urban cooperative

bank. Banks which is facing the poor and weak situation government should
strengthen them.
