Quarterly BSR-1: Outstanding Credit of Scheduled Commercial Banks - December 2021

Today, the Reserve Bank released its web publication entitled ‘Quarterly Basic Statistical Returns (BSR)-1: Outstanding Credit of Scheduled Commercial Banks (SCBs), December 2021’ on its Database on Indian Economy (DBIE) portal (web-link: https://dbie.rbi.org.in/DBIE/dbie.rbi?site=publications#!12). It captures various characteristics of bank credit such as occupation/activity and organisational sector of the borrower, type of account and interest rates. Data reported by 89 SCBs (excluding Regional Rural Banks) are presented for bank groups, population groups and states1.

Highlights:

  • Credit growth (Y-o-Y) continued to rise for the third successive quarter and stood at 8.1 per cent in December 2021 as compared with 5.4 per cent a year ago.

  • Private sector banks led the credit expansion with 13.4 per cent growth (Y-o-Y) and accounted for nearly 43 per cent of total incremental loans during the latest quarter.

  • After contracting for six successive quarters, annual growth (Y-o-Y) in bank credit to industrial sector turned positive in December 2021; personal loan segment continued to grow at robust pace and its share in total credit increased to 27.6 per cent from 25.6 per cent a year ago and 19.8 per cent five years ago.

  • The recent trend of decline in credit to the private corporate sector reverted in the latest quarter; the share of borrowers with credit limit of over Rs. one crore increased to 53.7 per cent in total credit from 52.8 per cent in the previous quarter.

  • The household sector2 continued to maintain double digit credit growth; the share of individuals in total credit has been rising over the years and stood at 43.8 per cent in December 2021 from 41.5 per cent a year ago and 34.6 per cent five years ago.

  • Growth in credit by metropolitan branches, which have major share in bank credit, accelerated to 6.0 per cent in December 2021 vis-à-vis 3.2 per cent in preceding quarter.

  • Weighted average lending rate (WALR) on outstanding credit at 9.14 per cent in December 2021 remained nearly unaltered from the previous quarter but it was 39 basis points lower than its level a year ago.
