  • FCIK Congratulates JK Bank For Making All-Time High Profit

    [ad_1]

    SRINAGAR: The Federation of Chambers of Industries Kashmir (FCIK) congratulated JK Bank for making an all-time high net profit of 1197 Crores in the last financial year besides improving significantly upon all other banking parameters.

    In a statement FCIK while attributing the remarkable achievement of the bank to its dedicated and hardworking management and staff, the apex industrial body said that the bank has improved its outlook towards accelerated regrowth of the J&K economy and high-end sustainability.

    FCIK equally attributed the success and achievement of J&K Bank to its loyal depositors from Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh whose deposits accounted for 88.20% of total deposits of Rs.122038 Crores with 6% growth from the last year. FCIK observed that this deposit profile has played an important role in maintaining the margins of the bank as the cost of these deposits stood at one of the lowest rates amoung the Indian scheduled commercial banks, implying lower than peers’ deposit costs @ 3.67%.

    “Such a gesture depicted and displayed an emotional bonding of the people of UTJKL with the bank since its inception in 1938 which needed to be respected, maintained and enhanced further.

    “The achievement is also attributed to the borrowers of the bank  who have obtained loans from the bank and returned the same with one of the highest interest rates among the Indian scheduled commercial banks” observed FCIK adding that the bank might have been within its right to cover prevalent risk factors while overcharging their borrowers during turbulent times when all other banks had backed out from flowing credit to various economic sectors including MSMEs.

    “Although the improvement upon Credit-Deposit ratio to 67.43% by the bank was fair yet it was much below the national average of 75%” observed FCIK adding that J&K Bank needed to fully concentrate on the increased credit flow to all economic sectors in UTJKL as it was observed that out of total advances of Rs.82285 a significant portion has been advanced to large corporate and other enterprises outside the Union Territory.

    “The recoveries made from the NPA account holders after the launch of OTS-2022, Karz Mukti Scheme etc. have also aided in the increased profit earning of the bank”, observed FCIK adding that the profit could have increased further had the bank authorities conceded to the demand of FCIK and other business chambers for modification of the OTS schemes.

    FCIK said that it was gratifying that the net NPA of J&K Bank stood just at 1.62% to net advances probably one of the lowest in the banking industry and that all borrowers of UTJKL were anxious to repay every penny of their loans borrowed from the bank on launch of a uniform, non-discriminatory OTS with trouble-free provisions and repayment schedule in consultation with the UT government and stakeholders. FCIK hoped that J&K Bank now initiated necessary steps towards launching such a policy which, among other things, could surely enable them to increase the current year’s profits to an all-time high by surpassing the profit figures of the previous year.

  • Eid Shopping: JK Bank Records Rs 564 Cr Transfer During The Day

    Eid Shopping: JK Bank Records Rs 564 Cr Transfer During The Day

    [ad_1]

    SRINAGAR: The markets across Kashmir did not exhibit any indication of revival even after the delayed crescent added a day to the Eid shopping in the subcontinent. People remained busy in managing the basics including bread, mutton, vegetables and other foods.

    Jammu and Kashmir Bank that is the custodian of almost two-thirds of deposits in Jammu and Kashmir has made public some basic information about the transactions in their system. Till 5 pm, on April 21, the data suggested Rs 564 crore was transacted through a total of 16.72 lakh transactions. This includes Rs 331.89 crore of transactions using the MPay as the card transactions were at Rs 118.5 crore and UPI transactions at Rs 115.08 crore.

    In the last three days, as already reported, the bank transacted Rs 2510 crore.

    However, the business transactions were not very encouraging. Insiders in the banking sector told TheNewsCaravan that not much of the transactions took place using the POS (point of sale) machines that most of businesses use. During the entire day, one insider said Rs 8.51 crore was transacted in 60232 sales, which is very insignificant given the tradition and practices on the eve of Eid.

    Even the cash that moved out of the banking system during the day was too little – only Rs 89 crore in 177292 crore.

    “Transactions did take place but people avoided spending the money,” one banker said. “People tend to spend as less as possible. Most of the transactions did not result in movement of cash out of the system and the digital transfer in business was too little.”

    In the last three days, the traders thought that the inclement weather was playing the spoilsport but Friday exhibited that while people were out and there were no rains, people avoided markets. Most of the markets remained deserted for the entire day. “Compare the figures of last Eid with this Eid, you will come to understand where the economy is heading,” one senior trader said.

    Market insiders hope that the onset of marriage season may trigger some turnaround.
