P :Provisional (except for SCBs). SCBs :Scheduled Commercial Banks. RRBs :Regional Rural Banks.
REC :Rural Electrification Corporation Ltd. * :Disbursements to priority sector as at end-June.
# :Priority sector advances as at end-March.
Note :1.In case of co-operatives and RRBs, data upto 1990-91 pertain to the period July-June and April-March thereafter.
In case of SCBs, data for all the years pertain to July-June period.
2.RRBs came into existence in 1975-76.
3.Data for loans from co-operatives since 1993-94 are not strictly comparable with the earlier period as many defaulters
became non-defaulters with the implementation of Agricultural and Rural Debt Relief (ARDR) Scheme resulting in an
increase in the assistance from banks. Furthermore, introduction/stabilisation of Lead Bank Returns (LBR), increase
in the number of banks as also increase in the awareness and consequent improvement in the data maintenance and
reporting system at the field level, have resulted in an increase in the amount of loans reported in subsequent years.
Also see Notes on Tables.
