-4- The Industrial Finance Corporation of India


INTRODUCTION
At the time of independence in 1947, India’s capital market was
relatively under-developed. Although there was significant
demand for new capital, there was a dearth of providers.
Merchant bankers and underwriting firms were almost non-
existent. And commercial banks were not equipped to provide
long-term industrial finance in any significant manner.

It is against this backdrop that the government established The


Industrial Finance Corporation of India (IFCI) on July 1, 1948, as
the first Development Financial Institution in the country to cater to
the long-term finance needs of the industrial sector. The newly
established DFI was provided access to low-cost funds through
the central bank’s Statutory Liquidity Ratio or SLR which in turn
enabled it to provide loans and advances to corporate borrowers
at confessionals rates.

FOCUS

IFCI has fulfilled its original mandate as a DFI by providing long-


term financial support to all segments of Indian Industry. It has
also been chiefly instrumental in translating the Government’s
development priorities into reality. Until the establishment of ICICI
in 1956 and IDBI in 1964, IFCI remained solely responsible for
implementation of the Government’s industrial policy initiatives. Its
contribution to the modernization of Indian industry, export
promotion, import substitution, entrepreneurship development,
pollution control, energy conservation and generation of both

direct and indirect employment is noteworthy. Some sectors that
have directly benefited from IFCI’s disbursals include:

• Consumer goods industry (textiles, paper, sugar).


• Service industries (hotels, hospitals).
• Basic industries (iron & steel, fertilizers, basic chemicals,
cement).
• Capital & intermediate goods industries (electronics,
synthetic fibers, synthetic plastics, miscellaneous chemicals)
• Infrastructure (power generation, telecom services).

GOAL

• To provide innovative and cost effective solutions to clients


with a blend of traditional and latest technologies maximizing
value at the least cost.
• To provide maximum service at least cost and shorter
turnaround times.
• To develop long term relationship with our clients.

CORPORATE STRATEGY

IFCI has been able to achieve a financial turnaround with the


consistent support and cooperation of all its stakeholders and is
now endeavoring to re-position itself.

As a part of its organizational strategy, IFCI plans to induct


strategic investors who may provide besides funds support,
business know-how, marketing techniques, technology, clientele,
brand name etc. to achieve scale and scope economies and
provide expansion of the capital and resources base. In the
interim period, IFCI plans to enhance organizational value through
better realization of its Non-performing Assets (NPAs) and
unlocking of value of its investment port-folio including unquoted
investments as well as real estate assets. The present business
strategy of IFCI envisages (a) retaining and enhancing its core
competence in long term lending to industrial and infrastructure

- 10 - The Industrial Finance Corporation of India


sectors and (b) expanding fee-based businesses to Capitalize
opportunities in Corporate Advisory Services.

CORPORATE ADVISORY

With its traditional core competence in project finance, and


coupled with its expanding expertise in investment banking and
corporate finance & advisory services, IFCI aims to be a provider
of total financial solutions for any aspiring or existing business
entity. With its traditional core competence in project finance, and

What is Diversification?
Is the process of spreading the total investment money available
across different asset classes, countries, industries, and individual
companies? Diversification also entails choosing investments that
are, as far as possible, uncorrelated, which means that when
investment A is performing poorly, investment B is likely to be
performing well. A prudent investor diversifies their holdings in a
diversified portfolio of assets.

IFCI convert into a Bank

Finance Corporation of India (IFCI) in July1948 under a Special


Act. The Industrial Development Bank of India, scheduled banks,
insurance companies, investment trusts and co-operative banks
are the shareholders of IFCI. The Government of India has
guaranteed the repayment of capital and the payment of a
minimum annual dividend. Since July I, 1993, the corporation has
been converted into a company and it has been given the status
of a Ltd. Company with the name Industrial Finance Corporations
of India Ltd. IFCI has got itself registered with Companies Act,
1956. Before July I, 1993, general public was not permitted to hold
shares of IFCI, only Government of India, RBI, Scheduled Banks,
Insurance Companies and Co-operative Societies were holding
the shares of IFCI.

LIBERALISATION - CONVERSION INTO COMPANY IN 1993

This arrangement continued until the early 1990s when it was


recognized that there was need for greater flexibility to respond to
the changing financial system. It was also felt that IFCI should
directly access the capital markets for its funds needs. It is with
this objective that the constitution of IFCI was changed in 1993
from a statutory corporation to a company under the Indian

- 12 - The Industrial Finance Corporation of India


Companies Act, 1956. Subsequently, the name of the company
was also changed to "IFCI Limited" with effect from October 1999.

IFCI plans to convert into a bank


PRESS TRUST OF INDIA

• NEW DELHI, APR 28: Financial institution Industrial Finance


Corporation of India (IFCI) is planning to convert into a bank,
its chairman and managing director P V Narasimhan has
said. It has also ruled out fresh funding to the steel sector.

• "We would like to move into banking operations. It is in the


interest of IFCI to become a bank," he said. However, the
corporation would need to seek the approval of its board as
well as the shareholders before undertaking the move, he
said.

• IFCI move to venture into bank follows RBI guidelines for


development financial institutions (DFIs) which recommend
either a movement to universal banking or conversion into a
non-banking finance company (NBFC) within a period of five
years.
• When asked about the time span in which the changeover
would take place, Narasimhan said "it is difficult to say at this
moment but it would be much ahead or around the RBI
deadline." As a bank, IFCI would be focusing on corporate
finance and there would be no retail operations, he said.

- 13 - The Industrial Finance Corporation of India


• The regulatory and supervisory regime at present is much
tougher for banks compared to DFIs. While the former are
subjected to cash reserve ratio (CRR) and statutory liquidity
ratio (SLR) requirements, the latter are not subjected to any
such conditionality.

• On being asked whether IFCI would be able to adjust to the


stricter supervisory regimes applicable to banks, Narasimhan
said, "we have to be prepared because regulatory
environment for DFIs could also become stricter in future."
Narasimhan said IFCI also had plans to venture into life
insurance through a separate joint-venture company and had
already tied-up with a foreign partner.

• Refusing to divulge the name of the foreign partner, he said,


"The name will be disclosed once the government comes out
with clear policy guidelines for private sector participation in
the insurance sector." "It will be a good diversification with
good profit potential in the long-term," he said.

• On funding to the steel sector, especially after IDBI, another


financial institution decided to bail out some projects, he said
"IFCI will not be able to take any exposure in the sector as it
already had reached the maximum permissible limit."

- 14 - The Industrial Finance Corporation of India


• Moreover, no new projects were expected in the sector with
the sector already having excess capacities in addition to
competition from cheaper imports, he said.

• IFCI would continue to lend to all other sectors with special


emphasis on telecom, roads, bridges, power and textile he
said adding the corporations exposure to all these sectors
stood at about five to seven per cent.

• On the fund mobilization front for the current fiscal,


Narasimhan said the institution was slated to come out with a 1:1
rights issue at par to raise Rs 350 crone to be followed by a public
issue of bonds.

• The bonds issue was earlier planned in the last quarter of


1998-99, but was postponed in view of the expectations
about fall in interest rates, he said. "The decision to come out
with rights issue was taken in view of the institution's debt-
equity ratio which has risen to 11:1 by March 1999 and to
raise its capital adequacy ratio," he said.

- 15 - The Industrial Finance Corporation of India


DIRECT FINANCING
• Rupee loans
• Sub loans in foreign currency
• Underwriting of and/or direct subscription to the shares &
debentures of public limited companies.
• Foreign currency loans raised by industries from foreign
intuitions.
• Rupee loans raised by industries from scheduled banks or
state co-operative banks.
• Guaranteeing of deferred payments for machinery {imported
& indigenous}

trying to understand the level of effectiveness of IFCI bank. To

- 31 - The Industrial Finance Corporation of India


answer this management problem research has be undertaken in
two main areas. The first concern is with the informational factors

facilitated by diversification of IFCI bank. Some most common
features of informational factors are:-

• Accuracy

• Reliability

• Timeliness

• Completeness

• Clarity

• Lucidity

• Conciseness

We also have another factor to be taken into consideration


that is in the form of economic and convenient usage of advisory
services which make the information content more appealing.
These factors can be expected show major changes in the
perceptions of the end users as some people expect a highly
experienced advisor while some don’t. So the study will be

preferences.
