EVOLUTION AND GROWTH SHG MOVEMENT

Phase I: NGOs promote women SHGs as an alternative to mainstream
financial services to reach un-reached segments of society.
Phase II: NABARD takes the lead in partnering with NGOs,
particularly MYRADA, to pilot the well-known SHG-bank linkage
model
Phase III: State Governments, particularly in the South, take a
proactive role in the promotion of SHGs in a big way, by way of
revolving loan funds and other support.
Phase IV: SHG-Bank linkage reaches the scale of over a million banklinked SHGs
Phase V: SHG federations emerge to sustain the SHG movement and
to provide value-added services.

6. Phase VI: SHGs and SHG federations gained widespread recognition to

be partners of various mainstream agencies such as financial
institutions, corporate sector, and government.

SHG federations have been evolved as a model that promotes

sustainability of the SHGs and provides the much needed
institutional base for poor women to realize their dreams and
aspirations.
The SHG federation model has achieved significant scale and
widespread acceptance. Though not a panacea, there is great
potential for the SHG federation model to address poverty.
In many ways, the model is unique the women are the owners,
managers, users and beneficiaries

10. Abstract of the Project Summary (Please not exceed one page)
It was found that NABARD has set a mission of credit linking one million SHGs by
2007 and the mission was achieved three years ahead of schedule. Average loans to
SHGs in the first cycle are expected to go up from the present level of Rs20,000
($435) to Rs53,500 ($1,160 at the present exchange rate). As the groups mature
and enter the second and higher cycles, additional credit per SHG is expected to
increase from Rs120,000 in 2002-03 to Rs243,000 in 2007-08. Overall annual
disbursements by NABARD to participating banks are expected to increase from
$43 million during the fiscal year 2000-2001 to $938 during 2007-2008. The net
loanable fund requirement of NABARD during 2002-2008 is estimated at $1.5
billion. NABARD seeks an external long-term line of credit of $550 million, to be
negotiated at a rate of 6%, repayable over a period of 12 years, with a grace period
of 6 years. NABARD in partnership with various stakeholders is facilitating SHGBank programme to enable the banking system transcend the confines of supply
driven credit delivery mechanism which was neither cost effective for the banks nor
user friendly for the poor. The cumulative number of SHGs credit linked with banks
increased to more than 27 lakhs as on March 31, 2007 covering more than million
poor households (NABARD 2007). Tamil Nadu occupies second place in India in
growth of SHGs with 315724 self help groups comprising 50,37,832 women as SHG
members. The magnitude of cumulative internal loans was of the order of
Rs.27121.87 In Virudhunagar district of Tami Nadu there are 7065 groups covering
72650 women as members who have accumulated a revolving fund of Rs.4100
lakhs.
The amazing factor here was the quantitative growth of SHGs in Virudhunagar
district. But the mission is not only for forming the SHGs for the sake of forming
the groups but alleviating poverty through capacity building and empowerment of
women. Micro credit is not a magic wand to alleviate poverty. The credit absorbing
capacity of the SHG members can be reinforced only by means of enhancing their

12

capabilities through technology oriented skill training.

Predominantly the New technologies will lead to increased knowledge and more
productive livelihoods. The key to SHGs success will be unleashing the creativity of
its members through technology training. But unfortunately only about 4% of the
SHG members in Virudhunagar district are engaged in micro enterprises
activities. The challenge for the SHG promoting Institutions is in building capacity
through training programmes, particularly due to the absence of quality resource
centers at the district level. The more critical challenge would be in inducing SHGs
to graduate to more matured levels of enterprise, livelihood diversification, access to
supply chain, linkages to capital market and appropriate production and processing
technologies. The progress revealed that many SHGs turned morbid particularly the
older groups as they did not engage in productive activities this alone can lead to
sustainable development. So the present project aims at showcasing of appropriate
technology, organizing demonstration programme and capacitating the SHG women
with relevant technical skills so that they can initiate micro enterprises ensuring
livelihood security and empowerment of women. The training will be demand driven
and local resourced based. Hence an initial survey to identify the beneficiary and
activities and development of content of training become essential pre-requisites of
the project.

Review of Status
11.1 International status of development in the subject
The literature on this Self Help Group bank linkage concept was evolved by
Asia Pacific Rural and Agricultural credit Association (APRACA), Bankok and
German Agency for Technical Co-operation (GTZ) during the workshop in
NANJING in China in 1986 and action projects was implemented in
Indonesia, Philiiipines, Thailand and India. Group based lending
methodology launched in Bangladesh by Dr.Mohhammed Yunus as an
action research programme in 1976 and later scaled up as Grameen Bank
since 2nd October 1983. On seeing the success of the group based lending
methodology, many donor agencies launched the SHG based microfinance in
various countries targeting the poor women. The Micro credit movement was
especially women to receive credit for self employment and business services
by the end of 2015.
11.2. National status
Reaching 100 million of Indias rural poor with savings and credit by 2008 this is NABARDs goal through its SHG banking program, leveraging the
strength of the formal banking system and the flexibility of informal self-help
groups (SHGs) in providing adequate financial services to very poor rural
micro entrepreneurs. Through NGOs, government agencies and banks, vast

13

numbers of self-help groups have been established in recent years: as selfreliant autonomous local financial intermediaries. 85% of the members are
women; in India, they have proven to be the better savers, borrowers and
investors. Most of them are from the lowest castes and other disadvantaged
groups. The SHGs mobilize their own savings, transform them into loans to
members and plow their earnings from interest income back into equity.
SHGs are now forming local networks fuelled by competence and
enthusiasm at all stakeholder levels; it expands rapidly throughout India. It
is probably the worlds largest and most successful microfinance
program for the rural poor outstanding in its emphasis on self-reliance
and local autonomy. Here are some outreach and performance figures
(Dec. 2000):
364,000 SHGs established as autonomous financial intermediaries;
5.8 million SHG members
30 million rural poor covered as household members
194,500 SHGs credit-linked to banks
380 banks and 8000 bank branches involved as bank partners
Non-performing bank loans to SHGs: 0%
750 NGOs and numerous GOs involved as social mobilizers and facilitators.
Myths about women and technology
Women are capable of doing only domestic work
Technology that benefits men is assumed to suit women too
Women who are involved only in certain stereotyped manual work as
supplementary income generating activities need no special training

11.3. Importance of the proposed project in the context of the current

status
As per NABARDs statistics, 400 women join the SHG every hour in India
and one new NGO join the Microfinance programme every day. It was noted
that in the present of globalization economic scenario, Multinational
Companies invade the rural areas with their products and exploit the rural
women. The rural women use the micro credit facilities for unproductive
consumption purpose by purchasing the products of big companies. More
over there is problem of migration from rural to urban areas due to lack of
employment opportunities. To check rural-migration and to provide self
employment opportunities for the rural women minimalist approach of micro
credit alone is not sufficient. Hence, it was identified that the need for credit
plus approach with thrust on propagation of technology and technology
based income micro enterprise training which will increase their

14

productivity. The key to a countrys success will be unleashing of creativity

of its women through technology development. Development which is not
engendered is endangered.
12. Duration / Time Schedule:
2years and 6months
13. Major activities to be undertaken
To undertake a survey and FGD(Focus Group Discussion)for
identification of beneficiaries and resource based income generating
activities
To study the resource availability
To identify the marketing opportunities
To develop content of the identified activities
To demonstrate, impart skill and train the SHG women on the
identified activities
To facilitate linkage with banks
14. Methodology: Out of the 14 blocks in Virudhunagar district 50 % of
the blocks will be selected and only those groups with more than five years
of existence and graduated to the stage of micro enterprises will be selected
with the help of NGOs. A complete survey and FGD (Focus Group
Discussion) will be undertaken to identify the beneficiaries with motivation
and interest to undergo technology training either to initiate new enterprises
or to upgrade the already existing activities. The identified beneficiaries will
be taken for an exposure visit and they will be sensitized by exposing them
to content developed under the project which will be followed by capacity
building exercise through imparting technical skills. Efficient Resource
Persons in respective activities will be invited. After sharing in exercise
training session will commence. The training will be designed in such a way
that at the end of the training programme they will be competent enough to
initiate and run an enterprise on their own.
