LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

HISTORY

 

Subject is the largest commercial bank in India in terms of profits, assets, deposits, branches and employees.  

 
Subject was constituted through an Act of Parliament in May'55 to carry on the business of banking and other business, and for the purpose of taking over the undertaking of the Imperial Bank with effect from 1 Jul.'55.  

 
Subject plays a vital role in providing working capital and term finance to the Indian industry. Due to its large network of branches, SBI has been able to garner a large chunk of deposits from the rural sector. It is also a leader in the international banking business. SBI has eight business units namely, corporate banking, international banking and domestic banking for concentrating on core areas, associate banks division for looking after the working of these banks, credit division to monitor the overall credit, and three other business units-finance, corporate development and inspection for in-house work, to help keep the mammoth organisation in order. 

 
In October 1996 the Bank successfully floated the first GDR issue, by any commercial bank in the country and raised US$ 369 millions, including the green shoe option. The 'World Equity' journal adjudged the SBI GDR issue as the 'Asian Equity Issue of the Year' for its being a 'well-planned, well-priced and well executed issue that continued to perform well for the investors'.  

 
In the HRD area, a major event during 2000-01 was the implementation of a voluntary retirement scheme, with the objective of improving the age and skill profile of the staff in keeping with the Bank's business strategies. Around 21,000 employees, including officers, were permitted to retire. The bank spent Rs 22712.4 millions as VRS compensation. 

 
The Bank has crossed another milestone by making a successful foray into insurance. SBI is the only Bank to have been permitted a 74% stake in the insurance business. The Bank's insurance subsidiary, SBI Life Insurance Company, a joint venture with the Bank holding 74% and Cardif S.A., the Joint venture partner, the balance 26%, was incorporated to undertake life insurance and pension business. Cardif S.A. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of BNP-Paribas, which is the largest bank in France and one of the top ten banks in the world. Cardif S.A. is the largest bancassurance company in France

 
SBI Life launched its first product 'Sanjeevan' on the 15 June 2001. SBI Life has introduced several Group Insurance Schemes including coverage for housing loan borrowers and deposits account holders. With the required approvals falling in place enabling SBI branches to handle insurance business, SBI Life's Bancassurance products are expected to get a big boost and also bring substantial non-interest income to the bank's branches 

 
The bank's efforts to establish a world -class credit information bureau in India culminated in the successful setting up of the Credit Information Bureau (India) Limited, a joint venture of the Bank with HDFC Limited, Dun and Bradstreet Information Services India Private Limited and Trans Union International Inc.  

 
In order to reduce risk and develop a transparent and active debt market in general and Government securities market in particular, the Clearing Corporation of India Limited has been set up in Mumbai with the Bank as the chief promoter. 

 
The Bank has an equity holding of 26% along with all India financial institutions, other scheduled commercial banks and primary dealers. The Corporation will act as a clearing house for sale and purchase of Government securities and foreign exchange. It is expected to commence operations shortly. As a part of restructuring the Banks representative office at Moscow is to be upgraded to a subsidiary and it is also going to a JV with Canara Bank and its Sydney Representative Office will be upgraded to a full-fledged Branch. As a part of resturcturing the bank has closed its Jakarta and Sao Paulo offices in 2002-03. 

 
The bank has formalized all arrangements for its new technology platform for branch operations, treasury business and risk management. Work is well underway in all related projects including connectivity between 49 cities, which will be achieved during the current year. The core banking software is under customization.  
 
The bank launched its debit card viz. SBI Cash Plus. Customers can use it to draw cash and do other transactions at the ATMs and also use it at merchant establishments for paying their shopping bills. This facility is extended to all SBI customers. 

 
The operating profit of the bank has crossed the Rs.100000 millions mark which was growing by over 15% in 2004-05.Despite the intense competition and pressure on spreads, the bank recorded a net interest margin of 3.39% in 2004-05.The capital adequecy ratio(CAR) is stood at 12.45% at the end of FY 2004-05. Another significant landmark of the bank during 2004-05 was crossing of 5000 ATMs(together with bank's group) across the country. 

 
Subject is the only bank in India to be ranked among the top 100 banks in the world and also among the top 20 banks in Asia in the annual survey by 'The Banker'.

 

Economic Backdrop and Banking Environment : 

 
The global economy grew at a higher pace of 5.4% in 2006, as compared to 4.9% in 2005, as growth picked up in Asia and other emerging market economies. According to the IMF, global growth is likely to moderate to 4.9% in 2007, due to expected slowdown in the US economy, though growth in the Euro zone is expected to pick up, led by strong domestic demand. 

 
The Indian economy witnessed robust growth for the fourth successive year. In 2006-07, the economy is estimated to have grown by 9.2%, building on 9.0% growth in the previous year. There are many positive features to this growth, which reinforce its solid foundations: the broad based nature of the growth relying on domestic demand (both investment and consumer) and exports, as well as the sectoral contribution, with manufacturing contributing to the strong growth momentum, not just services. The only exception is the challenge of agriculture. During 2006-07, the manufacturing sector grew by 12.3% against growth of 9.1% a year ago. The services sector, which has been growing at 9% since mid-1990s, is expected to continue to power the Indian economy, as it now accounts for around three fifth of GDP. Within services, trade, hotels, transport and communications and financial services recorded double-digit growth for the last two years. Another positive feature underpinning the current growth phase is the sharp rise in the rate of savings and investment in recent years, with the rate of gross domestic investment having risen sharply to 33.8% and the savings rate to 32.4% in 2005-06. Investment in general being a forward looking variable, reflects a high degree of business optimism and reinforces the outlook for growth. 

 
Inflation remained a major concern during the year, with WPI inflation hovering around 6.0% though it declined to 5.74% by 31st March 2007. CPI inflation however, remained higher. With its roots in supply-side factors particularly primary articles and manufactured goods, inflation was fuelled by buoyant growth in broad money supply and bank credit. 

 
Exports continued to show a healthy growth, rising by 20.9% during 2006-07, building on 23.4% in 2005-06. Buoyancy of exports was driven by resurgence in the manufacturing sector and sustained demand from major trading partners, pushing India's share in world merchandise exports to 1%. In the same period, imports grew faster at 26.4% (33.8% in 2005-06), due to increase in oil prices. There was a drop in silver and pearl imports while import of capital goods was robust, due to strong investment activity in the country. Reflecting growing interest in India's growth prospects, capital flows remained sizeable and India's foreign exchange reserves rose by US $47.6 bn to US $199.2 bn as on 30th March 2007. 

 
The overall stance of RBI's monetary policy was to check inflation while ensuring adequate credit to support growing investment demand, curb credit growth to sensitive sectors and maintain stability in financial markets overall. During 2006-07, while the Bank Rate was kept unchanged, Cash Reserve Ratio was raised by 100 bps. The Reverse Repo rate was raised by 25 bps to 6% while the Repo Rate was raised on five occasions by 25 bps each to 7.75% from 6.50%. With rising inflation, interest rates across the board rose during the fiscal year. The Prime Lending Rate (PLR) of major banks rose from 10.25-10.75% on 31st March 2006 to 12.25-12.50% on 30th March 2007. In the same period, deposit rate of major banks rose from 6.0-7.0% to 7.50-9.0% The rising lending rates had a moderating impact on credit growth, which increased by 27.6% in 2006-07 against 30.8% in 2005-06. At the same time, the increase in deposit rates had a favourable impact on deposit growth, which rose by 23.0% in 2006-07 against 18.1% in 2005-06. Consequently, the incremental CD ratio fell to 86% from 110%. 

 
The outlook for the current financial year is encouraging. Overall, the growth momentum is expected to be sustained, with continuing credit and investment demand from industry and services as well as agriculture, infrastructure and retail sectors. 

 
Financial Performance 

 
Profit 

 
The Operating Profit of the Bank for 2006-07 stood at Rs.99999.400 millions (which is arrived at after reckoning amortization loss of Rs. 16775.100 millions as compared to Rs.112992.300 millions) in 2005-06. It would appear that the Operating Profit has declined sharply. However, if the Previous Year's figures are regrouped on the lines of the Current Year, the Operating Profit for FY 2005-06 would stand revised to Rs. 82489.900 millions (after regrouping the figures on the lines of the recent RBI Circular on treatment of amortization of Rs.30502.400 millions) which would mean a growth of 21.23% in Operating Profit. The Bank has posted a Net Profit of Rs. 45413.100 millions for 2006-07 as compared to Rs. 44066.700 millions in 2005-06, registering a growth of 3.06%. 

 
While Net Interest Income recorded a growth of 2.98% and Other Income increased (on regrouped figures) by 31.57%, the gains made on the Income side were largely offset by an increase of 14.94% in Interest Expended. However, Operating Expenses remained controlled, with a marginal increase of 0.84%.

The gross interest income from global operations rose from Rs. 359795.700 millions to Rs. 394910.300 millions during the year. This was mainly due to higher interest income on advances. 

 
Interest income on advances in India registered an increase from Rs. 16,405.70 millions in 2005-06 to Rs.228726.600 millions in 2006-07 due to higher volumes. Also average yield on advances in India increased from 7.78 % in 2005-06 to 8.67% in 2006-07. Interest income on advances at foreign offices also increased due to higher volumes. 

 
Income from resources deployed in treasury operations in India declined by 21.18% due to a decline both in the average yield and the average resources deployed. The average yield, which was 7.10% in 2005-06, declined to 6.88% in 2006-07, due to the declining trend in the interest rates. 

 
Total interest expenses of global operations increased from Rs.203904.400 millions in 2005-06 to Rs. 234368.200 millions in 2006-07. Interest expenses on deposits in India during 2006-07 recorded an increase of 4.58% compared to the previous year, whereas the average level of deposits in India grew by 9.70%. This resulted in an increase in the average cost of deposits from 4.57% in 2005-06 to 4.79% in 2006-07. 

 
Non-Interest Income 

 
Non-interest income stood at Rs.57692.500 millions as against Rs.74352.000 millions in 2005-06.

Loss on revaluation of  
Investment declined from Rs. 30502.400 millions in 2005-06 to Rs. 16775.100 millions in 2006-07.
