scholarly journals Priority Sector Lending by Public and Private Sector Banks in India

Priority Lending is critical to the inclusive growth in India. The credit distribution to the priority sectors is vital in ensuring that the economic growth is even and percolates down to all levels in the economy. RBI made it mandatory to the Scheduled Commercial Banks (SCB) in India for providing credit delivery to critical sectors identified as part of priority sector. RBI mandated all the banks should achieve the targets and sub targets of priority sector lending as minimum percent of Adjusted Net Bank Credit (ANBC) or Off - Balance sheet Exposure (OBE) whichever is higher. This paper aims at understanding the credit delivery to Priority Sector by Public Sector Banks (PSBs), Private Sector Banks (PrSBs), analyze the ability of the banks to meet the targets and sub targets as Agriculture Advances, Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Advances and Weaker Sections Advances and whether these banks are meeting the recommendations of the RBI in providing credit to different sub segments of priority sector especially, Agriculture, MSMEs and Weaker sections. Ratios were calculated to check the proportion of these priority advances in the total advances, the percentage of priority in the ANBC. The statistical tools are used to check the significant variation of priority lending by these banks. Public Sector banks are proved that they are dominant partners in this strategy for sustainability of financial inclusion through lending to all the target and sub targets as per the RBI norms. Major portion of PrSBs lending is towards MSMEs while PSB were targeting more on agriculture and weaker sections.

After the core banking system, banks have moved further to reap the benefits of internet and mobile banking. In order to engage more customers anywhere and anytime without visiting the brick and mortar branches, the banks have now introduced the social media banking.

Due to globalisation, public sector banks are facing tough competition from the private sector banks, both domestic and foreign. To improve their efficiency and to excel in performance, they have realised the significance of innovative HRM practices, which were earlier being used largely by private sector banks. The present study is based on primary data collected from four hundred two employees of eight banks of India comprising of four banks each from the public and private sector. We examine if there is any statistically significant difference between public and private sector banks in the implementation of forty nine innovative HRM practices. These practices fall under seven different heads: recruitment and selection, training and development, performance management, compensation management, career development, employee motivation and employee security. The results of the t-tests indicate that in the area of innovative HRM, organisational policies and practices in the public and private sectors remain different in many important respects. It has been found that the private sector banks are far ahead of the public sector banks regarding the implementation of these practices. Further, it has been found with the help of different statistical tools that the level of implementation of these innovations in the eight surveyed banks also varies when examined individually.

The financial soundness of the banks is mandatory for any economy considering it is one of the most significant and a pre-requisite of a stable economy. The present study examines the financial performance parameters of banks with a probable variation among public and private sector banks for a period between 2005 and 2018. The study is divided into three sections. The first section studies the financial performance of the Scheduled Commercial Banks (SCBs), Public & Private Sector Banks in three identified time bands of last thirteen years. The second section assesses the probable variation in asset quality among Private and Public Sector Banks through statistical inferences. The third section finally examines the probability of variations in asset quality in the three time bands identified in the study.

The statistically inferred results through T-test, Welch test and Post-Hoc test support a significant variation among both the sectors along with presence of significant variations in asset quality.
