The High Level Committee set up by RBI had reiterated the necessity to cover initiatives under financial literacy and credit counselling while broad basing the Lead Bank scheme.

Further, Ministry of Finance informed that, as per 2011 census, only 52.5% of the households have a bank account in Tamil Nadu which is very low when compared to many other states.In order to accomplish the account opening and to have proper monitoring of the progress the various modalities are suggested by Ministry of Finance letter dated 03.08.2012. A copy of the letter is enclosed. It has been decided in the special SLBC held on 10.08.2012 to ensure opening of “One bank account for one family” in all the villages and urban areas in the State.

(ii) Capturing of Biometrics while opening accounts - regardingSir,

I am directed to refer to this Department’s letter no. F.No.8/11/2011-FI dated 15th May, 2012 wherein banks were advised to launch a campaign to ensure at least one bank account for each family in the service area of a branch having rural villages attached to it.

2. Government of India has been emphasising the need for transferring all benefits including MGNREGA wages and various cash subsidies to beneficiaries by direct credit to their bank accounts. These beneficiaries are not only inhabitants of rural villages but also comprises of urban poor and slum dwellers residing in the Urban/ Metro centres.

3. In order to provide banking services to entire population residing in Urban and Metro Centers – (Urban Financial Inclusion) , so as to financially include the urban poor, slum dwellers and the inhabitants of urban / metro villages and facilitate electronic benefit transfer in respect of benefits/ subsidies under various Government schemes directly into the account of the beneficiaries residing at these centres, it has been decided that the said campaign to ensure one bank account per family should also be launched in such Urban areas for the purpose of Urban Financial Inclusion .

4. All urban areas have a Municipal Corporation or a Municipality or a Municipal Council and the entire area is divided into “Wards”. Districts in Metros may not have Lead District Manager (LDM). Generally, the service area approach is not adopted for urban areas. In districts, where LDM has already been provided, necessary instructions may be issued to the LDMs

to allocate a Ward or group of wards to a particular branch (for the purpose of opening of accounts as per instructions issued vide letter No. F.No.8/11/2011-FI dated 15th May, 2012) as follows:

In case of non – lead Districts without LDMs, the above exercise of allocating wards to bank branches be done by a duly authorised senior officer of the SLBC convener bank. The allocation of branches for opening of accounts as above by LDM/ duly authorised officer be subsequently got ratified by SLBC.

5. It is under stood that under the campaign, some of the banks while opening accounts, are not capturing the biometric details of the customers and the campaign is restricted to FI villages. It is clarified that:

(a) The campaign is to be launched by the bank branch to open an account for the family in all villages attached to the service area of the branch and not just in FI villages. The subject matter of letter dated 15.05.2012 under reference may accordingly be read as “Launch of campaign to ensure at least one bank Account for each family in rural villages– regarding”.

should be able to withdraw the benefit from the BC channel, banks should while opening new bank accounts also ensure to capture biometric details of the customer (as done during the ‘Swabhimaan’ campaign) as per the standards notified in the recent RFP for engaging BCs.

2. It would be noted that, as per 2011 census, about 58.7% households, comprising of 54.4% rural households and 67.8% urban households, had reported availing banking facilities. Out of the 24.69 crore households, 14.48 crore households reported availing banking services. Nearly 10 crore households were not availing banking services. State wise details are enclosed.

3. Under Swabhimaan, over 3.25 crore bank accounts in rural areas have been opened. It would be seen that there still remains a large number of households which do not avail banking services. It was in the context of financial inclusion of the excluded and to facilitate the electronic benefit transfer that banks were advised to ensure opening of one bank account per family.

4. In order to accomplish the objective and to have proper monitoring of the progress the following modalities are suggested:

Opening of Bank Accounts

i. Service area bank in rural areas and banks assigned the responsibility in specific wards in urban area would be responsible for ensuring that every house hold has one bank account. This would be achieved in collaboration with other banks in the area

ii. Latest voter list of the area concerned may be taken as a reference for verifying that every house hold has a bank account.

iii. In case Cooperative or Urban Cooperative or Local Area Banks are on CBS and have NEFT facility, there should be no need to open another account in other bank.

iv. To facilitate Electronic benefit Transfer, the names of other family members can be added to any existing account. Banks need not insist on opening a new account unless the person concerned desires a new account.

v. Information about opening of bank accounts must be prominently displayed in the villages by the service area bank/designated bank along with the person/bank to be contacted.

Monitoring Progressvi. Lead District Managers in the districts and the SLBC Convenor in the State

would be responsible for monitoring and ensuring that every house hold has a bank account.

vii. The figure for number of households as per the latest census data may be used to compare the number of saving bank accounts. Since many households would have more than one saving bank account, number of saving bank accounts should be over 100% of the number of households, preferably 125-140%.

viii. LDM and SLBC Convenor would compile information on number of households and the number of saving bank accounts every week to monitor progress.

ix. State wise information on the number of households and the number of saving bank accounts would be sent to the Department of Financial Services at [email protected] by 5th of every month by SLBC Convenor banks. This would be sent from August 2012.

5. CMDs of SLBC Convenor Bank would are expected to supervise and guide the process of opening of bank accounts in the respective states.6. This issues with the approval of Secretary ( FS) .

New Issues 131st SLBC5. Strategy and approach for “Electronic Benefit Transfer “ (EBT)Ministry of Finance, Government of India has advised that benefits like pension, subsidies and grants under 32 central government schemes should be transferred to the beneficiaries’ bank accounts by electronic transfer system only. Electronic benefit transfer system would include compilation of information on benefit transfer compatible with the banking system; transfer of funds to the beneficiaries’ accounts; facilities for withdrawal of the amount by the beneficiaries as per their requirement. This system will be extended progressively to the entire country. In order to transfer the benefit electronically to the beneficiaries’ accounts, the following strategies and approach are given by Ministry of Finance.

Opening of bank accounts for the beneficiaries and mapping the list of beneficiaries with the bank account details.

Transfer of benefit to the beneficiaries’ accounts with help of Central Plan Scheme Monitoring System (CPSMS).

Page 15: AGENDA: 1 118th SLBC SLBC AGENDA.doc · Web viewAGENDA: 1 131st SLBC CONFIRMATION OF THE MINUTES OF THE EARLIER MEETING The minutes of the 130th State Level Bankers’ Committee Meeting

Till such time the departments are ready for transfer of benefits through CPSMS, they will furnish the electronic transfer details of beneficiaries by hard/soft copies to the banks and banks can start EBT.

Once, NPCI stabilized the EBT will be done by automated clearing house mechanism.

The charges to be reimbursed to the banks by the concerned department of Central government would be 1.5% of the value of the transaction or 25 % of the permissible administrative expenses, whichever less. Ministry of Finance has advised to allot districts to various Banks where they are Lead Banks for the pilot phase for Electronic Benefit Transfer System and this exercise should cover entire state immediately after completion of pilot phase in the districts allocated to banks. A special SLBC was conducted on 24.07.2012 for this purpose and it was decided to identify the pilot districts in consultation by State Govt. Departments and banks. All the member banks and State Govt. Departments are advised to comply with the above guidelines and ensure the smooth implementation of the scheme. Copy of the letter on the above subject received from Ministry of Finance dated 26.06.2012 is enclosed.

Ministry of Finance, Government of India vide their letter dated 21.10.2011 advised the Banks that in the under banked districts, all villages with population of 5000 and above should have a bank branch by September 2012.

Banks can start with Ultra Small Branch in these villages where opening of a regular brick & mortar branch is not considered viable at present and then convert it into a full-fledged branch when the branch reaches the desired level of business.

In other districts, the banks must try to open as many brick and mortar branches, in their service areas, in habitations having population of 10,000 and above by September 2012.

SLBC vide letter dated 18.05.2012 advised the member banks to take note of the changes in the guidelines and initiate necessary steps to open Ultra Small Branches / Brick and Mortar branches as the case may be in the villages identified by them before September, 2012.

18. Creation / Release of Online charge by banks on land holdings:

Ministry of Finance, Government of India desires that mortgage on land holdings of farmers are to be created online by banks to secure the loans availed by the farmers. As a first step the land records should be made available online for the entire State and the same should be integrated with the banking system for easy verification and creation of online charge over the landed properties. This would help the farmer to avail loans easily from the banks and he need not go to various places and spend time and money for this purpose.At present the mortgages created in favour of the banks are registered with a Central Registry under SARFAESI Act, 2002. Steps may be initiated to integrate the State Registration Offices with the Central Registry to facilitate hassle free registration of mortgages.An agenda was placed on this in the 130th meeting of the SLBC held on 28.06.2012. The State Government is requested to provide the details of land records online and creation of mortgage online at the earliest.

Reserve Bank of India has issued guidelines on the revised Kisan Credit Card Scheme to all the Banks vide their letter dated 11.05.2012. Ministry of Finance, Government of India advised that SLBC in each State should select 2-4 districts, and every eligible household in such select districts should be issued a KCC as per the new scheme before June, 2012. This must be expanded to cover remaining districts by September, 2012.Accordingly SLBC in consultation with all the four lead banks in the State selected the following 4 districts for the implementation of the revised KCC scheme:

1) Kanyakumari - Lead Bank, Indian Overseas Bank2) Salem - Lead Bank, Indian Bank3) Theni - Lead Bank, Canara Bank4) Ariyalur - lead Bank, State Bank of India

The member banks were requested to instruct all their branches and Regional / Zonal Offices in the four districts to launch campaigns immediately to cover all the eligible households in their service area under KCC before June, 2012.We have also advised DCC Convenors and Lead District Managers of the above four districts to convene special DCC meeting for this purpose and monitor the progress with the banks in their district. Progress in issuance of ATM enabled revised Kisan Credit Card is very slow. The performance as at the end of June, 2012 in the pilot districts is given below:

SLBC placed an agenda in the 130th Meeting of SLBC held on 28.06.2012, that in some districts, the Village Panchayat Presidents deposit cheques in the branches, asking them to credit the amount to numerous accounts. It is also reported that in some cases the Panchayat Presidents deposit huge amounts of cash for credit of accounts of many beneficiaries after which cash withdrawals are demanded on the account. This is not in line with the principles and procedures of Electronic Benefit Transfer. The branches of banks are put to lot of hardships and there are instances of public unrest and disturbances.

The e-payment norms of the Ministry of Finance envisage discontinuance of cheques so that credits would be only through ECS. Depositing of cash to enable withdrawal of cash on the spot is also not in keeping with the e-payment norms.

The forum requested that the State Government channelize the MGNREGS payment only through ECS as in the case of the Old Age Pension Scheme. This was accepted by Shri.Ponniah, Additional Director, Rural Development who informed the forum that Government of India had developed software which was operationalised on 29.05.2012. He also informed that another meeting will be held during first week of July and the modalities will be worked out therein and he assured that credits will be made in to the accounts of the beneficiaries only electronically.

However, so far no meeting was conducted by Dept.of Rural Development. SLBC continue to receive reports on instances of depositing cheques and cash from many districts and the branches are put in to severe stress and pressure.

The members are requested to deliberate on this issue.

Success Story

One of the recommendations of the High Level Committee on Lead Bank Scheme is “Success stories could be presented in DCC/SLBC meetings to serve as models that could be replicated.

The Success Story received from Pandyan Grama Bank, Nadayaneri branch, Segment: SHG Name: Roja Mahalir SHG.Success story of: Pandyan Grama Bank, Nadayaneri

Mineral Water flows to bring Rural Prosperity

Roja Mahalir Self Help Group was formed by 20 housewives of a Tamil Nadu village who had lot of spare time at their disposal. The SHG provided them a common forum to meet, discuss and start something new which would benefit all of them.

This thought gave rise to a small but profitable project. The group availed credit assistance from the Nadayaneri branch of Pandyan Grama Bank, one of the two sponsored RRBs of IOB. The credit enabled them to start a Mineral Water Plant in their village.

This was not the type of industry where the owners get the work done by engaging workers. All 20 members of the SHG took turns for working in the plant and involved themselves thoroughly in the work. As bottles of packaged pure drinking water rolled out of their plant, their next task was marketing.Their collective efforts brought them success. Their products moved well in the vast market space of packaged water. They bagged bulk orders from the nearby Kalasalingam Group of Technical Institutions which is a deemed university in Virudhunagar District.

Now these twenty house wives are using their spare time and earning decent additional income for the family, thanks to the SHG they formed in 2003. They are themselves maintaining accounts, running machinery and marketing their product without depending on external assistance. This is the magic of India’s unique SHG model.
