CURRENT SCENARIO
According to ‘MSME Pulse’, a SIDBI and CIBIL publication, the MSME
loan market (under ₹25 crore) is estimated to be around ₹25 lakh crore,
of which, PSBs hold almost 50 per cent share. Further, PSBs have a
dominant share of over 75 per cent for loans under ₹10 lakhs,
highlighting their critical role in financial inclusion.
The biggest advantage of a PSB loan is its low cost, which could be 5-
7 per cent lower than that of NBFCs. For a small borrower looking for a
collateral-free loan under ₹1 crore, PSB loans are critical, as both private
banks and NBFCs mostly lend against security. PSB loans are also an
important source of funding for the manufacturing sectors such as food
processing, textile, chemicals, and auto components.

has emerged as the largest online lending platform in three months
after its launch.
Since the launch, the sanction rates have climbed over 20 percent to
60 percent. However, approval rates are lower for new borrowers in
comparison to existing ones, a PTI report via BS mentioned.
P a g e 22 | 32
STRONG DEMAND OBSERVED:
GOOD OR BAD?
The demand for such a portal is validated by both the large number of
applications (around 1.31 lakh) received within two months of its
launch, and their total loan value.
Even after a loan is approved, the high turnaround around time for
the disbursal remains a challenge. Therefore, the portal is a good first
step to at least reduce the number of branches to be visited. In addition,
the MIS behind the portal would make it easier for the banks to monitor
loan rejections.
P a g e 23 | 32
According to official data, the portal received 1.31 lakh applications
during the first 50 days of its launch, of which, around 1.12 lakh
applications were approved, with a strike rate of 85 per cent. However,
of these 1.12 lakh applications, sanctions were accorded for just 40,669
cases, indicating that just over a third of the approved loans were
sanctioned.
High approval ratio suggests that either most of the SMEs that are
applying through the portal have good credit quality or the portal’s
credit approval norms are not strict enough; and
low loan sanction ratio indicates that the turnaround time for loan
sanction is more than two to three weeks and a number of
applications are still undergoing due diligence and, therefore, do
not reflect in the sanction data.
On the policy front, the norms for takeover of loans among lenders
should be relaxed. For example, under the current set-up, obtaining
additional working capital loan from a different lender would be difficult,
as banks would not be inclined to share security on pari passu basis for
such small exposures.

Moreover, the CBI is already investigating a senior Punjab National
Bank Official for fraud after his PNB branch approved 62 lakhs in lieu of
26 loan applications under the Mudra program. The charges as quoted
in the CBI complaint are “without conducting meaningful pre-inspection
or physical verification of spot of business or residence and without
ascertaining end use of the loan amount or creation of assets from the
loan amount”.
Now, isn’t that the Mudra program? The PMMY was meant for
offering quick business loans without collateral requirements and
stringent check and balances. Which in turn makes the ‘59 Minutes
Loan’ scheme susceptible to unforeseen hindrances. Since the new
scheme offers unsecured business loans up to 1 crore, bank officials are
going to be even more cautious in scrutinizing loan applications. Also,
similar to the Mudra scheme which was a refinancing scheme, for which
the funds were provided by banks, NBFCs and MFIs under pressure from
the government, the new scheme also adds the burden of funding loans
on public sector banks (PSBs). Thus, given the NPA crisis faced by almost
all PSBs, the 7-8 days’ loan disbursal policy also seems a little far-fetched
right now.

’59 MINUTES’ LOAN’ AGAINST NBFC
LOAN: A COMPARISON
The concept of fast business loans is not a new one and the latest
government scheme is just an extension of same-day loan approvals
being given by various NBFCs, albeit with some sugar-coating. Some of
the features being touted by the new loan scheme, such as online portal
for Loan Application and digital submission and verification of
documents, are already in use by NBFCs. Moreover, the simplicity and
steps involved in loan application process are also fewer for NBFC
business loan.
Here are some of the key differences between the ‘59 Minutes Loan’
scheme and NBFC business loans.
Loan Amount: The ‘59 Minutes Loan’ scheme offers loans from
10 lakhs up to 1 crore whereas NBFCs’ has a wider scope in terms
of funding with business loans ranging between 50,000 to 1 crore.
P a g e 27 | 32
Loan Disbursal: If all details check out, the government’s loan
scheme offers business loans within 7-8 days, which is not a lot
quicker than the existing loan products offered by banks. On the
other hand, various NBFC promises the disbursal of loan funds
within 3-days’ time once your application is verified.
P a g e 28 | 32
CONCLUDING THOUGHTS
While we should laud the government’s efforts to make India more
business-friendly, only time and numbers will tell the real story here. The
political detractors of the government were quick to point out that the
new MSME finance scheme has all the trappings of a same-day approval
loan and that it is merely a pre-poll sop. Even several bankers have
questioned the feasibility of the ‘approval within 59 minutes’ approach as
the public sector banks which are expected to shoulder the burden are
still reeling from a bad loan crisis and the shadow effects of
demonetization.
Even after this, it is sufficient to say that the idea of providing easy and
fast source of funding to MSME sector by employing a IT based platform
together with an array of initiative introduced around the same time
shows governments’ resolve to promote MSME sector. This resolve
subsequently emboldens the entrepreneurs’ belief and willingness to use
the new platform.
However, most concerning part of the scheme still remains the actual
turnaround time for the business loan. The disbursal time of 7-8 working
days can easily stretch up to 8-12 days when you count weekend holidays
and public holidays. So, in reality, getting loan within 59 min is difficult
considering the procedures of due diligence are still need to be followed
which takes large part of loan processing, both in terms of significance
and time.
Although, initiative has still to some extent helped in reducing the overall
time required to sanction a loan and its disbursement. Earlier, when it was
all offline process of loan sanctioning used to take about 15- 30 days
which has drop down to two weeks and also no requirement to physically
visit the bank is there.

SUGGESTIONS FOR IMPROVEMENTS
Government-promoted online loan application platform
psbloansin59minutes.com should expand coverage and extend loans to
startups, as suggested by an expert committee on micro, small and
medium enterprises set up by RBI.
