PRIORITY LENDING MAY TURN MORE FOCUSSED

As per the report appearing in Economic Times, the Finance Ministry may ask public sector banks to set sub-targets within the overall priority sector lending to ensure a more equitable flow of funds to segments such as agriculture, small industries and the marginalised sections of the society. The proposal by the Finance Ministry seeks to make sure that banks meet specific targets in terms of lending to each of the listed property segments,

The current RBI guidelines require banks to lend 40% of their adjusted net bank credit to priority sectors. Of the 40%, banks are required to lend a minimum of 18% of their net bank credit to agriculture sector and the balance to other specified sectors. Banks are also required to lend 10% of adjusted net bank credit to weaker sections.
