MEMORANDUM TO THE RISK MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE

Introduction of Overdraft (OD) variant under


the Working Capital (WC) Scheme

Vertical Head: Shri Vivek Kumar Malhotra


1. Issue under Consideration
To seek approval for introduction of new Overdraft Product (OD) i.e.
‘Scheme to Provide Operating Capital to Small Businesses’ (STOCS) under
Working Capital (WC) Scheme.

2. Background
• The Working Capital Scheme under SIDBI–IDBI Working Capital
Arrangement duly approved by Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is
operational in SIDBI since June 2007. The Bank has been able to
provide timely and adequate WC assistance at competitive pricing
to eligible MSME customers for meeting their WC requirements.
SIDBI-WC arrangement was solely with IDBI Bank till FY 2018 until
the Bank extended the WC platform with the addition of two more
Banks viz. City Union Bank (CUB) & Yes Bank Limited (YBL) vide
MoU dated May 30, 2018 & June 05, 2018 respectively in
compliance to RBI observations for alternative platforms under WC
arrangement. Both CUB & YBL offer better customer onboarding,
internet banking facility and sophisticated Application Programming
Interface for smoother reconciliation and system driven instruction
execution.
• The progress under the WC Scheme indicating FY wise Outstanding
& number of accounts is as under:
(` crore)
S.No Financial Year No. of accounts as Outstanding as

SIDBI RiMC.No.33/2019-20 Introduction of Overdraft (OD) variant under the
Working Capital (WC) Scheme

S.No Financial Year No. of accounts as Outstanding as


on March 31st on March 31st
8 FY 2014-2015 474 543
9 FY 2015-2016 441 522
10 FY 2016-2017 453 591
11 FY 2017-2018 453 636
12 FY 2018-2019 438 640
13 FY 2019-2020 534 630
(as on 31/12/2019)

• The portfolio has grown from about Rs.29 crore (FY2008) to about
Rs.640 crore (FY2019). The increase in the number of accounts is
nearly 500 customers over the last 12 years.

• As on December 31, 2019, the aggregate sanctioned limit is respect


of operative accounts were ` 924 cr and DP released is ` 797 cr. The
Bank has been able to contain the NPAs in the scheme with the
gross and net NPA in FY 2019 being 3.3% and 1% respectively. The
portfolio has witnessed steady and sustainable growth for the last
12 years.

• It may be mentioned that the Bank has also taken adequate steps
to train its officers through specialised trainings on working capital.
The Bank is regularly issuing and updating guidelines to the
operating officers to make them adept at handling the WC
operations. Thus, the operational offices are suitable equipped by
way of trainings /instructions for strict compliance of the processes
and effective monitoring of WC accounts.

3. Rationale for OD Product


• In view of the rich experience gained for more than a decade and to
address the present-day needs of MSME customers, it is felt that it
is an apt time to augment the scheme with similar optimum
products.

• In this connection, it may be noted that enlarging the ambit of the


WC Scheme vis-a-vis standalone Term Loan Assistance offers better
customer connect as it affords better monitoring & control over the
accounts. There is also lesser possibility of take-over by other Banks
as WC assistance is sanctioned under Composite Facility with the
major mortgaged security with SIDBI and SIDBI is able to meet all
the financial needs of the borrower under one roof.

SIDBI RiMC.No.33/2019-20 Introduction of Overdraft (OD) variant under the
Working Capital (WC) Scheme

• The distribution of clients as on December 31, 2019 based on the


sanctioned limit has been tabulated below:

`in crore
WC Limit Size No.of Aggregate Aggregate
Customers Sanctioned DP
Amount
Upto 100 lakh 282 166.18 147.02
>100 <=200 lakh 119 190.61 159.54
>200 <=500 lakh 107 361.03 300.16
>500 <=1000 lakh 21 144.00 130.65
>1000<=1200 lakh 3 34.00 32.00
>1200<=1500 lakh 2 28.50 27.50
Total 534 924.32 796.87

• The average size of WC limit in SIDBI is rather small at `170 lakh.


Many customers face issues related to various compliances under
small sized limits viz. Monthly submission of monthly stock & book
debt statement, QIS, Stock Audits etc. and hence there is a need for
a simplified product under the Scheme.

• As the approval obtained from RBI at the time of inception of WC


Scheme under IDBI arrangement in 2007 was solely for WC Scheme,
approval for introduction of Overdraft product under the ambit of
WC Scheme was obtained from RBI vide letter dated December 05,
2019 (Annexure I). The aforesaid RBI approval entails continuance
of WC facility scheme and further provides that any product variant
under the scheme may be taken care of by SIDBI’s Board subject to
the following conditions:

(i) The partner Banks i.e City Union Bank & Yes Bank should
share the Suspicious Transaction Report (STR), if any, with
SIDBI.
(ii) SIDBI should approach us after one year for a review of the
Scheme.

 The submission of review to RBI in December 2020 would be taken


care of by DCV and matter has also been taken up with our partner
banks to obtain STRs.

 PIRC, vide its 108th meeting held on January 13, 2020 has
recommended the Overdraft Product and approved the formats for
application, appraisal note, stock & book debt statement, etc. The

Page 3
SIDBI RiMC.No.33/2019-20 Introduction of Overdraft (OD) variant under the
Working Capital (WC) Scheme

minutes are placed at Annexure II along with compliance thereof at


Annexure III.

 The interest rate structure under STOCS has also been approved by
ALCO vide its 292nd meeting held on January 17, 2020.

4. Salient Features of the Scheme


• The assistance shall be utilised for meeting short-term financing
needs of the borrower viz. working capital requirement,
administrative /selling expenses, etc.

• The minimum and maximum quantum of assistance has been


pegged at `25 lakh and `200 lakh respectively.
