The credit card business is facing a slowdown as rising defaults have prompted banks to tighten due-diligence procedures. The growth in new credit card accounts has been lower at 18% in 2007-08, compared to 33% in 2006-07. The total card base in the country currently stands at 26m in 2007-08. This is because earlier banks would extend loans to customers with a minimum annual income of Rs80,000, they have now increased this to a minimum of Rs0.12m. Banks are also asking for the PAN card and strictly following other ‘Know Your Customer’ procedures before giving credit cards. The interest rates on various segments in the retail asset portfolio have seen a steady rise and therefore, the outflow in terms of an EMI (equated monthly installments) has also gone up. The default rates on credit cards have moved up by almost 150-200 basis points this year to 11-12% in 200708, against 9-10% in 2006-07.

Indian economy is mirrored by the financial sector of the country. Credit growth has slowed down in the banking industry, to 17.3% after staying in the range of 28-30% during most part of the OND08. Sudden dip in credit growth is on account of repayment of oil marketing companies, slowdown in industrial production, lower working capital requirement and delay in execution of capex plans. Credit growth somehow remained healthy in the past on account of desperate need for funds as other source of capital for corporate India such as ECB, and FCCB had totally dried up. 204000

Outlook Interest rates have remained high for over a year and the ill effects have already been seen in the form of slowing IIP & GDP. There has been a sharp deterioration in the global financial environment, which has impacted domestic money, and forex markets with a marked increase in volatility and a sharp imbalance on market liquidity as reflected in the movements in overnight interest rates and the high recourse to the Liquidity Management Facility. BOI has strong presence in the well industrialised and growing western India. This region accounts for largest share (37%) of credit in the banking industry. BOI also has a strong international presence with international operations contributing to about 20% of the total business. It has plans to diversify its client base and embark on retail business as well. BOI has also made its intentions clear to grow inorganically with a view to increase its international presence. Till now the bank has shown good growth performance in terms of its Net Interest Incomes.
