Accounting for Banking Companies

The Banking Regulation Act, 1949; governs all the Banking Companies in India.

The Banking Regulation Act, 1949 Defines Banking as – “Banking” means the accepting, for the purpose of lending or investment, of deposits of money from the public, repayable on demand or otherwise, and withdrawal by cheque, draft, order or otherwise;

The Banking Regulation Act, 1949 Defines Banking Company as - "Banking Company" means any company which transacts the business of banking in India.

Usually a Banking Company in India is required to maintain a lot of Bookssuch as –

Cash Book, General Ledger, Etc.

To maintain such books it also has to maintain Subsidiary Bookssuch as –

Receiving Cashiers Counter Cash Book; Paying Cashiers Counter Cash Book; Current/ Savings/ Fixed Deposits Accounts Ledger; Investment Ledger; Loan Ledger; Etc.

In addition to the above stated books it also needs to maintain few Registerssuch as –

Bills for Collection Register; Demand Draft Register; Share Security Register; Safe Custody Register; Etc.

However, in this chapter we are not going to discuss about any of such books or registers – We would be focusing only in the preparation of the Final Accounts of the Banking Companies; which would include – Profit & Loss A/c and Balance Sheet.

The Profit & Loss A/c and the Balance Sheet of the banking company needs to be prepared in a specified format as prescribed by the Reserve Bank of India.

In the final accounts of a banking company we first present the Balance Sheet and then the Profit & Loss A/c. Hence Balance Sheet is represented in Form A and the Profit & Loss A/c is represented in Form B.

Classifying an Asset as Non-Performing Asset (NPA)

Any Loan which is overdue for more than a period exceeding 90 days will be considered as NPA as per the Guidelines issued by RBI.

In case of cash credit and overdraft if the outstanding balance is continuously more than the amount sanctioned or the amount of interest paid is less than the amount of interest charged then it is considered as NPA.

Income Recognition:

In case of Performing Assets the income in form of Interest is recognized on the Accrual (Due) basis, however in case of Non-Performing Assets the income in form of Interest is recognized on Receipt basis.

Illustration 1The following are the details of Overdraft facility sanctioned to Mr. X as on 31^st March, 2018.

Sanctioned Limit                                   ₹2,50,000

Amount Drawn                                      ₹2,25,000

Amount outstanding continuously     ₹2,10,000

Total Interest debited for the year      ₹   27,500

Total Interest paid during the year     ₹   22,000

Determine the performing status of the above account as on 31^st March, 2018.

Illustration 2 The following are the details of the interest on loans and advances in respect of Performing and Non-Performing assets of XYZ Bank. Find the Income to be recognized for the year ended 31^st March, 2018.

ii	Cash Credit and Overdraft	785	765	831	222
iii	Bills Discounted	622	535	498	111

Classification of Advances

 Standard Assets:Theses are performing assets and pose no problem to the banks.

A provision of 0.4% is to be made on these assets

Sub-Standard Assets:Those assets which are classified as NPA for less than 12 months are called as Sub-Standard Assets

A provision of 15% is to be made on Secured Sub-Standard Assets &

A provision of 25% is to be made on Unsecured Sub-Standard Assets.

Doubtful Assets:

Those assets which are classified as NPA for more than 12 months are called as Doubtful Assets

A provision of 100% is to be made on Unsecured Doubtful Assets,

On Secured Doubtful Assets the provision to be made depends on the period of Asset –

Doubtful upto 1 year                          - 25%

Doubtful for 1 to 3 years                    - 40%

Doubtful for more than 3 years          -100%

Loss Assets:

These are the assets which are identified as bad but not written off from the books.

A provision of 100% is to be made on Loss Assets.

Important Note: If any advance is covered by Export Credit Guarantee Corporation (ECGC) or by Deposit Insurance & Credit Guarantee Corporation (DICGC) then, in such case from the total Advance (after deducting value of security) the % of Guarantee (ECGC/DICGC Cover) is to be deducted to arrive at the amount of Unsecured portion.
