INTRODUCTION

THEORETICAL BACKGROUND

CONSUMER FINANCE:

The division of retail banking that deals with lending

The consumer finance is a win-win system in which everyone wins. For the consumers it is an
opportunity to upgrade standard of living here and now instead of waiting for years of Savings to
accumulate. For dealers it is one type of sales booting. For finance company it is profit
generation. Consumer finance has to do with the lending process that occurs between the
consumer and a lender. In some instances, the lender may be a bank or financial institution. At
other times, the lender may be a business that offers in house credit in exchange for the business
of the consumer. Consumer finance can include just about any type of lending activity that result
in the extension of credit to a consumer.

CONSUMER DURABLE FINANCE:

Consumer durable finance means to provide the finance on the consumer durable product like,
Washing machinist, TV etc. it is known as consumer durable Finance.

The consumer durable finance provide the 0% interest on durable product to the consumer, This
gives customers another compelling reason to opt for 0% interest Consumer Durables Finance
for their durables purchases. Consumer durables finance schemes are generally available at the
dealer location (point of sale) or the showroom. The beneficiaries are not just customers, lenders,
manufacturers, and retailers too benefit. Manufacturers gain from the resultant boost to sales and
increased consumer preference towards high-margin products. Financing schemes enable
customers, especially those with lower income levels, to use future income streams to buy
consumer products upfront and pay in installments over a period.

11
The most popular finance scheme prevalent in the market currently is the 12/4 scheme, where the
financier collects the amount for the first four months as initial down payment from the
buyer and then disburses the full amount to the dealer. The financier then recovers the

balance amount in 8 monthly installments from the buyer. The interest and processing charges
are generally paid upfront by the manufacturer to the financier. Consumer durables financing
appears robust, continued support from manufacturers (who are effectively bearing the interest
costs currently)would be critical to sustain high growth.

ADVANTAGES OF PROJECT:

Schemes related to the consumer durable finance is always welcome by the customers.
Tracking methodology of customer is very smoothly (by using EMI card).
Provision of easy, simple and adequate credit.

DEFINITION OF BANK:

An establishment for custody of money, which it pays out on customer's order

INDUSTRY/COMPANY OVERVIEW

13
Industry overview:

India is expected to become the fifth largest consumer durables market in the world by 2025. The
consumer electronics market is expected to increase to USD 400billion by 2020. The production
is expected to reach USD 104 billion by 2016.The sector is expected to double at 14.7 per cent
compound annual growth rate(CAGR) to USD 12.5 billion in FY15 from USD 6.3billion in
FY10. Urban markets account for the major share (65 percent) of total revenues in the consumer
durables sector in the country. Demand in urban markets is expected to increase for non-essential
products such as LED TVs, laptops, split ACs and, beauty and wellness products. In rural
markets, durables like refrigerators as well as consumer electronic goods are likely to witness
growing demand in the coming years as the government plans to invest significantly in rural
electrification. The Government of India has increased liberalisation which has favoured foreign
direct investments (FDI). Also, policies such as National Electronics Mission and digitisation of
television and setting up of Electronic Hardware Technology Parks (EHTPs) is expected to boost
the growth of this sector.

The consumer durables market is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 14.8 per cent to USD
12.5billion in FY15. Also, the demand from rural and semi-urban areas is projected to expand at
a CAGR of 25 per cent to USD 6.4 billion in FY15, with rural and semi-urban markets likely
contributing majorly to consumer durables sales.

Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs)

Non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) are fast emerging as an important segment of Indian
financial system. It is a heterogeneous group of institutions ( other than commercial and co-
operative bank) performing financial intermediation in a variety of ways, like accepting deposits,

14
making loans and advance, leasing hire purchase etc. They raise fund from the public, directly or
indirectly and lend them ultimate spenders. They advance loans to the various wholesale and
retail traders, small-scale industries and self-employed person. Thus, they have broadened and
diversified the range of products and services offered by a financial sector. Generally, they are
being recognized as complementary to the banking sector due to customer-oriented services,
simplified procedures, and attractive rate of return of deposits, flexibility and timeliness in
meeting the credit needs of specified sectors.

The working and operations of NBFCs are regulated by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) within
the framework of RBI Act, 1934.

As per the RBI Act a NBFCs is defined as

A financial institution which is company.

A non-banking institution which is company and which has as its principal business the
receiving of deposits under any scheme or arrangement or in any other manner or lending
in any manner.
Such other non-banking institutions or class of such institution as the bank may, with the
previous approval of the Central Government and by notification in the Official Gazette,
specify.

The type of NBFCs registered with RBI

Equipment leasing Company is any financial institution whose principal business is

that of leasing equipments or financing of such an activity.

Hire-purchase Company is any financial intermediary whose principal business is

relates to hire purchase transactions or financing of such transactions.

Loan Company - means any financial institution whose principal business is that of
providing finance, whether by making loans or advance or otherwise for any activity
other than its own.

Investment Company is any financial intermediary whose principal business is that of

buying and selling of securities.

15
Now, these NBFCs have been reclassified into three categories

Asset finance company ( AFC )

AFC are financial institutions whose principal business is of financing physical assets
such as automobiles, tractors, construction equipments material handling equipment and
other machines.
E.g : Bajaj Auto Finance corp.

Investment Companies ( IC )
ICs generally are involved in the business of shares, stocks, bonds, debentures issued by
government or local authority that are marketable in nature.

Loan companies ( LC )
LC is loan giving companies which operate in the business of providing loans. These can
be housing loans, gold loans etc. E.g.: Manuapuram Gold Finance

NBFCs are different from Banks

NBFCs cannot accept demand deposits.

A NBFC cannot issue cheque, to their customers and is not a part of the payment and
settlement system
Deposit insurance facility of Deposit Insurance Credit Guarantee Corporation ( DICGC )
is not available for NBFC depositors
They cannot offer interest rates higher than the ceiling rate prescribed by RBI from time
to time
They cannot offer gifts or any other additional benefit to the depositors.
They should have minimum investment grade credit rating, from the credit rating
agencies.

GDP OF THE FINANCIAL SERVICE INDUSTRY

16
TERTIARY SECTOR- When the activity involves providing intangible good like service
then this is part of the tertiary sector. Financial services, management consultancy, telephony and
IT are good example of service sector.

Sector wise Indian GDP composition in 2016 are as follows:

Real GDP growth or Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth of India in the year 2015-16 is
estimated at 7.56 percent (the growth rate was 7.24 percent in 2014-15). India has registered
highest growth of 10.3% in 'Financial, real estate & professional services' sector

Industry (24.2%) and Services (57.9%). Total GDP of Industry sector is $495.62 billion and
world rank is 12. In Services sector, India world rank is 11 and GDP is $1185.79 billion.
Contribution of Industry and Services sector is lower than world's average 30.5% for Industry
sector and 63.5% for Services sector.

At previous methodology, composition of Industry, and Services sector was 14.16%, and
33.25%, respectively at current prices in 1950-51. Share of Services sector has improved to
57.03%. Share of Industry sector has also increased to 24.77%

THE SUCCESS FACTOR OF THE FINANCIAL SERVICE THAT WILL BE

REQUIRED TO SECCEED:

The operation of the NBFC

Team work & team management
How to handle criticism of the customers.
Relationship building at all levels in the organization
Decision Making at critical situation

Government Initiatives

Several measures have been outlined in the Union Budget 2014-15 that aim at reviving and
accelerating investment which, inter alia, include fiscal consolidation with emphasis on
expenditure reforms and continuation of fiscal reforms with rationalization of tax structure; fillip
to industry and infrastructure, fiscal incentives and concrete measures for transport, power, and

17
other urban and rural infrastructure; measures for promotion of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI)
in selected sectors, including defence manufacturing and insurance; and, steps to augment low
cost long-term foreign borrowings by Indian companies. Fiscal reforms have been bolstered
further by the recent deregulation of diesel prices. The launch of Make in India global initiative
is intended to invite both domestic and foreign investors to invest in India. The aim of the
programme is to project India as an investment destination and develop, promote and market
India as a leading manufacturing destination and as a hub for design and information. The
programme further aims to radically improve the Ease of Doing Business, open FDI regime,
improve the quality of infrastructure and make India a globally competitive manufacturing
destination.

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has eased norms for mortgage guarantee companies (MGC)
enabling these firms to use contingency reserves to cover for the losses suffered by the mortgage
guarantee holders, without having to take approval of the apex bank. However, such a measure
can only be initiated if there is no single option left to recoup the losses.

Financial inclusion is among the topmost priorities of the Indian government. Exclusion of a
large number of people from access to financial services affects the growth of the country. Prime
Minister Mr NarendraModi launched the PradhanMantri Jan DhanYojana in August 2014. He
said that that the objective to cover 75,000,000 households with at least one account under the
Yojana will be achieved by January 26, 2015.

Retirement fund manager EPFO will launch its project to provide portable universal PF account
numbers (UAN) to its subscribers on October 16, 2014. Also, the government will launch unified
web portal LIN (Labour Identification Number) to simplify business regulations and bring in
transparency and accountability in labour inspections by agencies and bodies under the control of
the labour ministry.

The RBI has simplified the rules for credit to exporters. Now, exporters can get long-term
advance credit from banks for up to 10 years to service their contracts. The requirement is that
they have a satisfactory record of three years in order to get payments from the banks, which can
adjust the payments against future exports.

18
Major Challenges for the Industry:

Heavy taxation in the country. At its present structure the total tax incidence in India
stands around 25-30 per cent, whereas the corresponding tariffs in other Asian countries
are between 7 and 17 per cent.
About 65% of the population lives in village and they are not well aware about consumer
durable 0% loan plan.
Poor infrastructure is another reason to held back the industry.
Squeezed by larger customers (principals) on delayed payment terms
Intense competition among players - leading to higher ad spends and lesser pricing
power, thereby lowering margins.
There are many fraud cases and the 3rd party risk.
Absence of adequate and timely supply of finance for working capital.
Limited Access to Equity Capital.

19
 PORTERS FIVE FORCE MODEL

BARRIERS TO ENTRY: LOW

LICENSING REQUIREMENT:

The licensing requirements of RBI for NBFCs are not that stringent as compared to the banks.
There are already 12159 registered NBFCs while there are only around 180 banks in India.

BARGAINING POWER OF CONSUMERS: HIGH

MANY ALTERNATIVES:

The consumers have got many alternatives for availing credit.

Large number of NBFCs: The consumers have a large spectrum to choose from.

POTENTIAL THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES: MODERATE

1. BANKS: NBFCs were actually created by the government of India as it felt the need to
provide banking facilities to the poor and underprivileged who could not get access to banks.
Thus banks are a perfect substitute for NBFCs.
2. UNORGANIZED MONEY LENDERS: The unorganized money lenders have a strong
presence in the rural markets. They pose a big threat to the NBFCs in the rural areas.

BARGAINING POWER OF SUPPLIERS: HIGH

MANY ALTERNATIVES: The suppliers in this case are the depositors or the NBFCs
funds. The suppliers have many alternatives at their disposal to invest their money depending
on their risk appetite. E.g.: High risk: stocks, low risk: banks

INTENSITY OF RIVALRY: HIGH

1. UNDIFFERENTIATED SERVICES: The service offerings by NBFCs are almost the

same. Thus there is a low level of service differentiation.

20
2. MARKETING STRATEGIES: Due to the increased rivalry among the NBFCs, there has
been use of aggressive selling & intensive marketing strategies by the companies to gain the
market share.

21
 PESTEL ANALYSIS

PESTEL:
ECONOMIC FACTOR:
Indias GDP growth peaked at 9.3% in FY11 and has dropped sequentially since then to 6.3% in
2012 and to 4.5% in FY13. Growth appears to have bottomed out at 4.4% in Q1 FY14, and GDP
growth has since risen to 4.8% in Q2 FY14, and 4.7% in Q3 FY14.

At this juncture, economic indicators point to a revival of growth challenges such as the steep
current account deficit, tight liquidity and high food inflation have ebbed. Further, measures have
been taken by the government to expedite project clearances and boost Capital Expenditure
expansion. Most importantly, a fresh political mandate at the center is expected soon, and has
resulted in some optimism in businesses. At a consumer level, demand continues to be sluggish,
and a clearer picture will emerge on critical areas like job and economy in the coming months.
Car sales de-grew by 6.7% in FY14 (1.79 million vehicles sold) compared to sales of 1.87
million in FY13.

Two wheeler sales rose by only 7% in FY14 at 14.81 million, as compared to 13.80 million in
FY13. Commercial vehicles sales, traditionally seen as a lightning rod for the economy de-grew
by 20% to 6.32 lac vehicles, as compared to sales of 7.93 lac vehicles in FY13.

POLITICAL FACTOR:

The government cleared over 300 projects entailing an investment of `6.6 lac Crore during the
last 1 year. This coupled with a possible reduction in interest rate during the 2nd half of FY15,
will result in economic growth, albeit with a lag. However, as in the past, the financial sector will
be the first to benefit from positive initiatives. Accordingly, we are optimistic about our business
environment during FY15 and beyond.

22
PERFORMANCE AND POLICIES OF THE NBFC SECTOR:

According to the rating agency ICRA, NBFCs are expected to report a growth of around 8-10%
in retail credit in FY14 compared to the 19% achieved in FY13. This was based on the
observation that credit by the sector had grown by only 5% during the first nine months of FY14,
as against the 15% posted during the same period of FY13. The CV and CE sectors were
impacted by the dip in economic growth, the governments inability to kick start projects and
judicial interventions like the ban on mining. The demand for gold loans too has been subdued
due to regulatory interventions such as lower LTV ratios which prevailed for a large part of the
fiscal year.

Below are some of the major policy initiatives taken by the RBI during FY14 that impact NBFCs
in general:-

Lending against Gold Jewellery: The RBI stipulated that loan amount (Loan to Value or LTV)
should be restricted to 75% of the base value of gold Jewellery. It clarified that only the intrinsic
value of gold Jewellery allowed as the base value for this purpose. Further, the process of
valuation of gold Jewellery was made transparent and standardized and the disbursal of loans of
`1 Lakh and above had to mandatorily be made by Cheque.

Central registry of mortgages: The RBI mandated that all mortgages from March 31, 2011
were to be registered with the Central Registry under Securitization and Reconstruction of
Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002 (SARFAESI Act). The
SARFAESI Act, which allows banks and financial institutions to auction residential and
commercial properties when borrowers fail to repay their loans, will enables banks to reduce
their non-performing assets (NPAs) by adopting measures for recovery or reconstruction.

TECHNOLOGICAL FACTOR:

Securitization: The central bank has allowed credit enhancement on loan resets, subject to
certain conditions.

23
Prepaid Payment instruments: Throwing open a new business opportunity, the RBI has
allowed the issue of prepaid cards.

Private Placements: The RBI issued a clarification regarding NBFCs raising money through
private placements of Non-Convertible Debentures (NCDs). Although the industry believed that
withdrawal of the current facility of issuing NCDs without any restrictions would result in
adversely impacting their Asset Liability Management (ALM), it clarified that this freedom
resulted in inadequate resource planning and higher transaction cost. Nevertheless, in order to
facilitate the process of moving to a more robust ALM in a non-disruptive manner, it decided not
to immediately operationalize the instruction with regard to the minimum gap between two
successive issuances of privately placed NCDs.

The Company is focused on providing a number of financial services to Retail, MSME,

Consumer and Wholesale credit, which is expected to drive growth for the Company going
forward.

During the year under review, the Company has successfully grown its outstanding Loan Assets
under Management from 75.10 billion to `96.79 billion, a growth of 29%. The Retail Assets
under Management has grown from `55.60 billion to 78.83 billion, a growth of 42%. As part of
the plan to change the mix of assets, the Wholesale Book reduced by 8% from 19.50 billion to
17.96 billion. The Net worth of the Company increased from `9,607 million to `11,710 million as
at March 31, 2014.

Consolidated Net Interest Income increased by 34% from 2,499 million during the financial year
ending March 31, 2013 to 3,361 million during the financial year ending March 31, 2014.

The Profit before Tax, before exceptional items, increased from 519 million during the financial
year ending March 31, 2013 to 590 million during the financial year ending March 31, 2014. The
profit after tax was down by 17% from `631 million to `526 million. This is essentially on
account of an exceptional and one time item of `213 million reported in previous year for sale of
subsidiaries.

ENVIRONMENTAL FACTOR:

24
Keeping in mind the overall performance and the outlook for your Company, your Directors are
pleased to recommend a dividend of 2/- (Rupees Two only) per share i.e. 20% on each Equity
Share of `10/- (Rupees Ten only). The dividend would be paid to all the shareholders, whose
names appear in the Register of Members/Beneficial Holders list on the Book Closure/Record
date.

Rating agency CRISIL said that revised guidelines for non-banking financial companies could
lower their return on asset by 0.25 per cent over next 2-3 years, even though the new norms
would structurally strengthen the sector and enhance confidence of lenders in them.

CRISIL believes that tightening in bad asset recognition norms to 90 days from 180 days and the
increased standard provisioning requirement to 0.40 per cent from 0.25 per cent will adversely
affect the profitability of NBFCs. As a result, the return on asset is expected to drop by 0.25 per
cent over the next two-three years.

This will be primarily due to higher provisioning requirements on account of increase in standard
asset provisioning and revised recognition norms for bad assets.

"The new guidelines will enhance the systemic stability of NBFCs and enhance lender
confidence in them. NBFCs will be able to smoothly transit to the tighter regulatory
requirements, given the adequate time frame provided by RBI. The proposals like increase in
tier-I capital ratio, stronger liquidity management, and enhanced disclosure requirements will
structurally strengthen NBFCs over the medium term.

While the reported gross NPAs will increase in the near-term due to re-classification, the
enhanced focus of NBFCs on collections will lead to an improvement in asset quality gradually
over the medium-term.

On the proposal to hike the tier-I capital to 10 per cent and 12 per cent for select NBFCs from 7.5
per cent, the report said it will improve the quality of capital and enhance the cushion against
asset-side risks.

25
While the existing tier-I capital ratio of most NBFCs is comfortably above the revised regulatory
requirement, the sector will have to raise around Rs 8,000 Crore. To maintain the current cushion
over regulatory minimum, under the revised norms, noted the report.

feels that the customer is fraud then he will not process it further.

5. Then the Software automatically get the CIBIL score of the customer from the credit
agencies or Government. If the CIBIL score is less than 650 then customer will not be able to
get the loan i.e. the application will be rejected.

generates -1 score. Also the Loan application can be accepted or rejected on the basis of the

38
 OBJECTIVES OF PROJECT

1. To identify factors influencing consumer durable loan for FMCD

product
2. To learn the customer credit process.
3. To identify factors like low down payment, long tenure schemes,
approval time etc which influence the consumer durable loan for
FMCD products.

BASIC TYPES OF CREDIT:

39
These are types of credit which will be given in different modes. By understanding it you will be
to understand how credit will be helpful to individual to corporate world.

1. SERVICE CREDIT: Is a monthly payment for utilities such as telephone, gas,

electricity, and water. You often have to pay a deposit, and you may pay a late charge if your
payment is not on time.

2. LOANS: Loans can be for small or large amounts and for a few days or several years.
Money can be repaid in one lump sum or in several regular payments until the amount you
borrowed and the finance charges are paid in full. Loans can be secured or unsecured.

3. INSTALLMENT CREDIT: May be described as buying on time, financing through

the store or the easy payment plan. The borrower takes the goods home in exchange for a
promise to pay later. Cars, major appliances, and furniture are often purchased this way. You
usually sign a contract, make a down payment, and agree to pay the balance with a specified
number of equal payments called installments. The finance charges are included in the
payments. The item you purchase may be used as security for the Loan.

4. CREDIT CARDS: Are issued by individual retail stores, banks, or businesses. Using a
credit card can be the equivalent of an interest-free Loan- end of each month.-if you pay for
the use.

TYPES OF LOAN OR CREDIT:

40
 Loans can be of two types fund base & non-fund base:

Fund Base includes:

Working Capital
Term Loan

Non-fund Base includes:

Letter of Credit
Bank Guarantee

BRIEF ABOUT THE TYPES OF LOANS:

A. FUND BASE:

WORKING CAPITAL:

The objective of running any industry is earning profits. An industry will require funds to acquire
fixed assets like land, building, plant, machinery, equipments, vehicles, tools etc., & also to
run the business i.e. its day-to-day operations.

Funds required for day to-day working will be to finance production & sales. For production,
funds are needed for purchase of raw materials/ stores/ fuel, for employment of labor, for power
charges etc. financing the sales by way of sundry debtors/ receivables.

Capital or funds required for an industry can therefore be bifurcated as fixed capital & working
capital. Working capital in this context is the excess of current assets over current liabilities. The
excess of current assets over current liabilities is treated as net, for storing finishing goods till
they are sold out & for working capital or liquid surplus & represents that portion of the working
capital, which has been provided from the long-Term source.

41
TERM LOAN:

A Term Loan is granted for a fixed T*erm of 3 years to 7 years intended normally for financing
fixed assets acquired with a repayment schedule normally not exceeding 8 years.

A Term Loan is a Loan granted for the purpose of capital assets, such as purchase of land,
construction of buildings, purchase of machinery, modernization, renovation or rationalization of
plant & repayable from out of the future earning of the enterprise in installments as per a
prearranged schedule.

From the above definition, the following differences between a Term Loan & the working capital
credit afforded by the IFCI Limited are apparent:

The purpose of the Term Loan is for acquisition of capital assets.

The Term Loan is an advance not repayable on demand but only in installments ranging over
a period of years.
The repayment of Term Loan is not out of sale proceeds of the goods & commodities,
whether given as security or not. The repayment should come out of the future cash accruals
from the activity of the unit.
The security is not the readily saleable goods & commodities but the fixed assets of the units.

It may thus be observed that the scope & operation of the Term Loans are entirely different from
those of the conventional working capital advances. IFCI limited commitment is for a long
period & the risk involved is greater. An element of risk is inherent in any type of Loan because
of the uncertainty of the repayment. Longer the duration of the credit, greater is the attendant
uncertainty of repayment & consequently the risk involved also becomes greater.

However, it may be observed that Term Loans are not as lacking in liquidity as they appear to be.
These Loans are subject to a definite repayment programmed unlike short Term Loans for

42
 working capital (especially the cash credits) which are being renewed year after year. Term
Loans would be repaid in a regular way from the anticipated income of the industry/ trade.

The repayment of a Term Loan depends on the future income of the borrowing unit. Hence, the
primary task of the bank before granting Term Loans is to assure itself that the anticipated
income from the unit would provide the necessary amount for the repayment of the Loan. This
will involve a detailed scrutiny of the scheme, its capital assets. Financial aspects, economic
aspects, technical aspects, a projection of future trends of outputs & sales & estimates of cost,
returns, flow of funds & profits.

B. NON-FUND BASE:

LETTER OF CREDIT:

The expectation of the seller of any goods or services is that he should get the payment
immediately on delivery of the same. This may not materialize if the seller & the buyer are at
different places (either within the same country or in different countries). The seller desires to
have an assurance for payment by the purchaser. At the same time the purchaser desires that the
amount should be paid only when the goods are actually received. Here arises the need of Letter
of Credit (LCs). The objective of LC is to provide a means of payment to the seller & the
delivery of goods & services to the buyer at the same time.

A Letter of Credit (LC) is an arrangement whereby a bank (the issuing bank) acting at the request
& on the instructions of the customer (the applicant) or on its own behalf.

BANK GUARANTEES:

A contract of guarantee is defined as a contract to perform the promise or discharge the liability
of the third person in case of the default. The parties to the contract of guarantees are:

43
 Applicant: The principal debtor person at whose request the guarantee is executed.
Beneficiary: Person to whom the guarantee is given & who can enforce it in case of default.
Guarantee: The person who undertakes to discharge the obligations of the applicant in case of
his default.
Thus, guarantee is a collateral contract, consequential to a main co applicant & the beneficiary.

PURPOSE OF BANK GUARANTEES

Bank Guarantees are used to for both preventive & remedial purposes. The guarantees executed
by banks comprise both performance guarantees & financial guarantees. The guarantees are
structured according to the Terms of agreement, viz., security, maturity & purpose.

Branches may issue guarantees generally for the following purposes:

a) In lieu of security deposit/earnest money deposit for participating in tenders.

b) Mobilization advance or advance money before commencement of the project by the contractor
& for money to be received in various stages like plant layout, design/drawings in project
finance.
c) In respect of raw materials supplies or for advances by the buyers.
d) In respect of due performance of specific contracts by the borrowers & for obtaining full
payment of the bills

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

47
 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

INTRODUCTION:
The system of collecting and processing of data for project is known as methodology. The study
is made on basis of secondary data. The annual data of firm also play a vital role in collecting
necessary information. Information is collected with the help of two sources-

Primary Data:

It is the information which is collected from finance department for further studies. It was mainly
through interview with concerned officer and staff.

Secondary Data:

Secondary data is published data. It is already available and save time. The main source of
secondary data is Market Survey, government publication, advertising research report etc.

Descriptive research

It is used to describe characteristics of a population or phenomenon being studied. It does answer

questions about how/when/why the characteristics occurred. Rather it addresses the "what"
question.

Exploratory Research

It is research conducted for a problem that has not been clearly defined. It often occurs before
we know enough to make conceptual distinctions or to posit
an explanatory relationship. Exploratory research helps determine the best research design,
data-collection method and selection of subjects.

48
SAMPLING

The actual sampling is a separate and important stages in the research process. Sampling
involves procedures that use a small number of items or parts of the population to make
conclusion regarding the world population.

In my study my Sampling units were the consumers who were

interested in consumer durables loan.

Sample Size

During Summer Internship the sample size taken was 120 customers.

General information

In 60 days of my training, I worked in Vijay sales, Pune station which was one of the hot counter
for sale electronic appliances My work was to meet the customer and convert them to purchase
the financial loan. I use to sit in electronics dealership suggested by my mentor to increase the
finance and sale the product in loan not in cash.

USE OF SOFTWARE: - Company use one software particular to provide finance to its
customers. They use portal called Sales Force. The portal can only be accessed through the
link, which was only provided to Sales officer and Sales Manager i.e. you cannot open the portal
by searching it on any search engine and even in capital first website. The Dealer also does not
have access to the Sales Force.

With the help of Sales Force the company analyze the customer and verify
the customer documents:-

a) Customer past performance of loan payments.

49
b) Customer Income.
c) Customer actual Data.
d) Customer Home Address.
e) Their Active Mobile Numbers.
f) Customer Bank account Detail.

CFL VS COMPETITORS

55
 Repayment through Cooperative Banks are allowed.
TA interest free period is for 30 days; competition offers only for 21 days.
While competitor offers Dealer Direct Funding, our TA facility is like working capital
finance, which can be used for any business purpose but in case of competitors, there is
limitation of funds being utilized only for a particular manufacturer and only for CD
purchases.
Minimum down payment under Credit Card program is only Re.1 (against a minimum of Rs.
5000 or actual DP in competition) This helps to save the charges of 2.5% on credit card
down payment, which is either borne by the dealer or passed on to the customer.
Higher funding limits for High Value Panels Funding up to Rs. 5 Lakhs.
No classification of Dealer Counters basis volume and vintage Hence a customer is eligible
for the same loan amount at any dealer outlets, unlike competition, where counters are
allotted differential funding limits basis association.
Schemes with higher tenor are available to the customer.
Customer can avail a loan at any given time (subject to only 3 active loans), unlike
competition, where the next case can be logged in only after a lead time of 3 months.
Approval is based on multi-factor based scorecard parameters (in competition, CIBIL <750 is
rejected upfront and CIBIL 0,-1 is approved subject to Deduce match and stringent checks).
DBD and Processing Fees on Vanilla Schemes are more competitive than that offered to the
customer by Competition.
