to conduct an operation on deployment of the core banking system across its all 800
branches of the 19 district central co-operative banks, according to Indian fintech
vendor I-flex . I-flex subsidiary Flexcel will deploy, host and manage the core
banking system. At present, the technology has been successfully deployed in about
40 branches, and the next 200 locations are awaiting their turn.
The program of deployment was worked out to improve transaction processing and to
provide online, real-time banking to accounts from any of the 800 bank branches in
the network. Plus it will help PSCB to set the fixed standardization of products and
services to customers.
PS Sidhu, MD, Punjab State Co-operative Bank, says: "We selected Flexcube, Oracle

replacing manual processes, maintain the customer intimacy we have created over the

One month before i-flex got a consent of both shareholders and regulatory body sides
to change the company name to Oracle Financial Services Limited. I-flex explained
that the new name signs its "close strategic and operational alignment" with parent
company Oracle, which holds an 81% stake in its business.

CHAPTER III
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Research methodology
Research is composed of two syllables, a prefix re and a verb
search. Re means again, anew, over again. Search means to
examine closely and carefully, to test and try, to probe. The two
words form a noun to describe a careful and systematic study in
some field of knowledge, undertaken to establish facts or principles.
Research is an organized and systematic way of finding answers to
questions.
Redman and Mory defines research as a Systematized effort to gain new
knowledge. It may be noted, in the planning and development, that the significance
of research lies in its quality and not in quantity. Research methodology is the
specification of method of accruing the information needed to structure or solve at
hand. It is not concerned to decision of the fact, but also building up to data
knowledge and to discover the new facts involved through the process of dynamic
change in the society.

Research Design
Research design is a pattern or an outline of research project working. It is a statement
of essentials elements of a study, those that provide the basic guidelines for the details
of the project. Further a research design is an arrangement of condition for collection
and analysis of data in manner that aims to combine relevance to the research purpose
with economy in procedure. Research design stands for advance planning of the
methods to be adopted for collecting the relevant data and the techniques to be used in
their analysis, keeping in view of the objectives of the research.
Under this project, Research design carried out was exploratory in nature

Objective of Study

To get information about a cooperative bank & its functions etc.

To know the structure and various schemes of loans provided by The Central

Cooperative Bank Head Office Patiala .

To know the purpose of granting various types of loans by the bank according
to

the various categories of customers.

To know the process of granting loans by the bank.

Collection of Data
Collection of data is most significant stage of every research. There are two types
sources from where data is collected . These are : I) Primary Sources II) Secondary
sources
Data has been collected both primary as well as secondary sources as described
below:

Primary Sources

The primary sources of data were circulars relating to the bank and personal
observation.

Secondary Sources

The secondary sources of the data were the information about the PATIALA
CENTRAL CO-OPERATIVE BANK LTD. and the banks profile which includes
functions of bank and various schemes of granting loans etc. These helped in gaining
knowledge about the Bank.

Limitations of Study

Lack of personal interest of employees to provide information and adequate

time.
Some employees were hesitant in providing complete information.

CHAPTER IV
ANALYSIS OF LOAN PROCEDURE
AND
LOAN SCHEMES

Definition of Loan
An arrangement in which a lender gives money or property to a borrower, and the
borrower agrees to return the property or repay the money, usually along with interest,
at some future point(s) in time. Usually, there is a predetermined time for repaying a
loan, and generally the lender has to bear the risk that the borrower may not repay a
loan (though modern capital markets have developed many ways of managing this
risk).

Importance of Loans in Today's Life

Everyone needs money at every stage of their life. Sometimes it so happens that they
have keen desire to purchase their favorite stuff but they are incapable to purchase due
to shortage of money.
Here lies a question that a person who does not have a good amount of money at
particular time has no right to see dreams? Is he not authorized to fulfill his desires on

time? Should he stop dreaming? No, because there is solution for these queries. Loans
are available for these purposes only.
Loans are provided to people for such critical circumstances which may occur at any
time. In anyone's life a situation may come when all of sudden you require cash. A
moment when you do not want to borrow cash from your relatives.
There may occur any kind of emergency when you need huge amount of money.
There are various types of loans like home loans, personal loans, student loan,
business loan etc. You can take any type of loan you need. For each and every kind of
need, loans are available.
Home loans are available for general home purposes like buying a luxurious car,
going for a holiday trip, educational purpose, home improvement etc. Many of your
desires can be fulfilled by this loan.
Personal loans are available for personal requirements like wedding ceremony,
purchasing a home etc. Student loan as it itself suggest is that it is provided basically
to students for higher education. Students who want to study more but can not afford
can get apply for such loans and continue their studies.
To start a new business you require a huge amount of money. A person willing to
setup a business may not have that much cash which can meet out his requirements.
For this business loans are available. You can get business loans to start and well
establish a new business in market.
Whatever may be the kind of loan, all have full fledged facilities. All kind of loans
have their own importance. Above all, need of money explains the importance of loan.
Appling for loan is very easy. Apply for that loan whichever is needed to you. But
before applying you should go through different lender's policies and apply for that
lender which is beneficial for you.
Different lenders have different policies. If you get loan for long term with low rate of
interest then it is beneficial for you. Due to competition, lenders are trying their best
to attract people by providing different schemes which in turn is good for people. And
cooperative bank is also one of them.

What is a Procedure?
A procedure is a specified series of actions or operations which have to be executed
in the same manner in order to always obtain the same result under the same
circumstances (for example, emergency procedures). Less precisely speaking, this
word can indicate a sequence of tasks, steps, decisions, calculations and processes,
that when undertaken in the sequence laid down produces the described result,
product or outcome. A procedure usually induces a change.

Importance of Procedure Manuals

One of the worst case scenarios of office problems involves a very important job that
cannot be completed by the support staff because of a lack of information on
procedures. Nearly every company prepares job descriptions, but most neglect
efficient, exact
and up-to-date procedures manuals. A job description entails. A procedures manual
gives a detailed and informative guide to how the job is done and enables someone to
do the job in an emergency. Henrik Ibsen once said, "A community is like a ship;
everyone ought to be prepared to take the helm." Likewise, an office - people should
be able to pitch in and get the job done. This is possible only if they are provided with
the proper instructions and materials.
Every job entails a certain sequence of paperwork, routine tasks and contacts. For
example, someone might be in charge of travel arrangements. A job description would
state that the job entails making both domestic and foreign travel arrangements and
processing invoices for this. A procedures manual would give the names and phone
numbers of various travel agencies used for the firm, the best people to contact, how
to process the invoices by explaining the forms and what department handles them. If
the person in charge of travel arrangements is out of the office, someone else can open
the procedures manual and follow the directions to do the job.
Managers should see that every support staff employee in his or her department
prepares a procedures manual for each job. At the beginning, the manager should
meet with each employee individually and discuss the preparation of the manual so
that its function is fully understood. An outline of what is expected should be prepared
and given to each employee to follow. The outline should cover:
1. What - A description of the task.
2. When - How often it is done.
3. Who - What people are involved in completing the task.
4. How To - Sequence of steps to complete the job. Phone numbers, addresses, chain
of command, forms or materials needed (and where they are kept), potential problems
and solutions based on experience. If office machines are involved (computers or
word processors), a description of how they are operated for this particular job (i.e. if
disks are used, where information is stored, how to retrieve the information, electronic
mail, etc.). If a computer sequence is followed to complete forms or reports for the
task, copies of each screen used should be made and placed in the procedures manual
in the proper order. A "dummy" of each page should be filled out so that it can be
easily followed.

Important details
One of the most important aspects of a procedures manual is that it is detailed
and gives all the necessary information to get the job done in the quickest way
possible. If persons, agencies or companies outside your company have to be
contacted to complete a job, the procedures manual should give specific
names, departments, addresses and phone numbers as well as a brief

description of what each does, how long it will take, what you need from them
and what they need from you.
Another important part of the manual is making sure that it is up to date.
Outdated information will only confuse someone and will not get the job done.
All employees should be instructed to check the procedures manual they have
prepared at least once a month to see if phone numbers, names or directions
need updating. Both the employee and manager should have copies that are
accessible to others.
One of the problems in every office involves employees who are reluctant to,
or refuse to, share information because they feel it will diminish their
importance. Keeping the job "complicated" and being the only one able to do
it gives this type of person a sense of job security and self-esteem. They do not
want someone else to do their job at all, no less do it well. Unfortunately, this
type of thinking does much more harm than good. A good manager must be
able to communicate to these employees that a procedures manual is vital and
must closely monitor the employee to see that a manual is prepared and is
viable. Employee resistance to the idea of doing a procedures manual is to be
expected. Some people will be afraid that their writing skills are inadequate
and they will be unable to do their part properly. These employees should be
helped as much as possible and encouraged to do the best they can. Their
contributions can be polished later on. Usually, resistance is greatest among
those who know they have more time on their hands than the job entails.
These people will usually denigrate the whole idea of writing down what they
do in detail, knowing that keeping the details vague makes the job sound a lot
busier than it really is. Some tasks can take 10 to 15 minutes if you know
exactly what to do and might take most of the day for the uninitiated to
muddle through and try to get it right when the usual person in charge is out.
People do get sick, quit or leave for a variety of reasons - often quite suddenly.
A procedures manual is not a panacea for all office management problems, but
it certainly helps.
A procedures manual also allows a manager to see what people are doing and
estimate how long certain duties take. What is vaguely written in a job
description as "handle board room reservations" could take from five minutes
to hours depending on what is involved. A procedures manual would indicate
whether the person in charge simply keeps a reservation book noting the
names, dates and times or arranges for audio/video equipment, extra seating,
coffee or other beverages and refreshments, provides writing tablets and pens
or takes minutes as part of the job, including contacting maintenance people to
see that the room is cleaned before and after and arranging with the
receptionist to make sure the names of all outsiders are given to her and guests
are properly directed to the location of the meeting. Obviously, there is a big
difference in the amount of time expended, depending on what steps are
involved. Detailing the steps involved would enable anyone to take care of the
job without confusion and problems.
Hiring decisions
Managers can, therefore, make decisions about consolidating certain jobs
when there is an obvious lack of work in some jobs and too much in others,
can make hiring decisions as to whether or not extra staffing is required or
whether people can be let go. If you ask an employee what a job entails and
she or he says, "I do this, this and this," you have very little idea of what time

and effort is involved unless you have done the job yourself (probably
unlikely), or have it written down in a procedures manual.
Another advantage of the procedures manual is that a manager can see
whether or not an employee is suited to a certain position. If the employee
seems to go about tasks in the most complicated, difficult manner, obviously
retraining is necessary or the employee should not be in the job. A manager
should be able to see, by the step outlined in the manual, whether the job is
being done as efficiently as possible.
A procedures manual can help avoid confusion when someone has to step in
and do a task that is not normally part of his or her job. This enables the office
to run much more smoothly and gives managers a "feel" for what is going on
in their departments. It also enables the manager to feel more confident about
being in charge because he or she knows precisely what is going on in the
department. Most employees will welcome the manual when they are called
upon to fill in or help out because they will at least have some idea of what is
to be done and how to do it. A procedures manual is a simple office tool that
can save a lot of time and avoid a lot of problems.

Based on the documents submitted by the customer, the credit rating of the
customer is done i.e. how much the loan amount should be granted to the
customer is calculated. This is done as follows.
1. First the total value of the customers assets is calculated. For example if
loan is on a stock plus if he has provided the papers of his business land, then
in this case his credit will be calculated as a sum of the value of both these
assets.
i.e. total value = value of stock + value of land

2. Now, according to the rules of bank some percentage of the value of these
assets can only be given as loan. This percentage varies for different types of
loans and based on it the sanctioned loan amount is calculated.
V.

Inspection:
After having calculated the credit and the amount that can be sanctioned for
loan, the file is forwarded for inspection. Here, the officer verifies the work
done by the clerk at the credit rating desk. Moreover, he checks the banks
database to see if the loan taker has any previous obligations which are
remaining to be met (if he is an old customer). After the satisfaction with all
the parameters, he hands over the file to the loan manager.

VI. Loan Manager:

At this step , the file of customer reexamined by the loan manager. If the loan
is consumer loan then it is directly granted by branch manager . But if the loan
is personal loan or vehicle loan or any other type of loan then it is granted by
senior manager or district manager. The powers of granting different types
loans of different mangers are as under:

Branch Manager: Branch Manager has power only to grant the consumer
loan. The maximum amount is granted up to 100000 Rs./-.
Senior Manager: Senior Manger has power to grant a loan up to amount
200000 Rs./- only.
District Manager : District Manager can grant a loan from 200000 Rs./- to
500000 Rs./- only
Board of Directors: If the loan amount is greater than 500000 Rs./- then it is
granted by the board of directors of the Patiala Central Cooperative Bank.

So according to different types and different amounts of loans, these are

granted by above parties. At this stage loan granting manager recheck all the
documents. Loan manager pass the loan if customer fulfill all requirements.
But if there is any thing which is unclear or insufficiency in the documents, he
has power to reject the loan application. But he is also liable to give specific
reason to the customer about the rejection of loan.
VII. Meeting:
If the amount of loan is grater than 5 laces then a meeting is conducted
between board of Directors of the bank After having examined the file, the file
is then put forward before the Chairman and Managing Director (MD) in a
meeting. This file is then cross examined. If all the members of top
management are mutually consent then the application of loan is ready for
disbursement of loan amount.
VIII. Insurance:

Before issuing the loan amount or opening of a/c for loan, the customer is
required to get insurance on the thing on which he wishes to take loan. This is
done by bank with the help of United India (UI) Insurance Company.
Moreover, if any other thing is mortgage for taking loan, then the insurance is
taken on that particular thing also. This is explained in detail in the coming
sections.
IX. Giving away of Loan:
