Explanatory Notes

I. General
  1. The publication, “Statistical Tables Relating to Banks in India 1979-2009” in CD-ROM format, provides  bank-wise and bank group-wise data and ratios based on annual accounts submitted by Scheduled Commercial Banks (SCBs) and also bank group-wise data and ratios based on final Form ‘A’ submitted by SCBs under Section 42(2) of RBI Act, 1934.

  2. Data on number of employees have been collected from Indian Banks’ Association (IBA). These are available from 1979 onwards; however, there are some data gaps in the bank-wise data either due to non-availability or due to the fact that some of the banks were not members of IBA for the said year(s).

  3. The data presented in balance sheet, profit & loss accounts, and Form ‘A’ can be extracted in any unit, viz., Rs. thousand, Rs. lakh, Rs. million, Rs. crore and Rs. billion, as per the choice of the user. The unit, one lakh is equal to 1,00,000 and one crore is equal to 100 lakhs.

  4. Scheduled Commercial Banks are categorised in five different groups according to their ownership and / or nature of operation. These bank groups are: (i) State Bank of India and its Associates, (ii) Nationalised Banks, (iii) Regional Rural Banks, (iv) Foreign Banks, and (v) Other Scheduled Commercial Banks (in the private sector). The CD-ROM provides aggregate data for different bank groups.

  5. The public sector bank IDBI Ltd. is included in the group of Nationalised Banks.

  6. For ease of comparability and presentation, the six banks which got nationalised during the year 1980 are kept under the 'Nationalised Banks' group throughout the period including 1979. However, at the bank group level, the totals include these banks in Other Scheduled Commercial Banks group and Nationalised Banks group, respectively, in the years 1979 and 1980.

  7. Total expenses shown in profit & loss account is the sum of interest expenses and operating expenses. The profit figure is computed by subtracting total expenses and provisions and contingencies (including income tax, wealth tax, fringe benefit tax and deferred tax liabilities) from total income of the bank.

  8. The formats of balance sheet and profit & loss accounts for the years 1979-1991 are different from the ones effective from 1992. Accordingly, several details are not available for the years 1979-1991. Hence, a few adjustments in data have been made to maintain uniformity of presentation; the details of which are given in Section II below.

  9. Bank group-wise totals may not add up to the individual bank’s totals due to rounding off.

  10. As data are not available uniformly for all banks / items across the entire period, against such entries, the notation 'NA' (Not Available) is used.

  11. As some banks do not exist during the period, against such banks, the notation ‘NE’ (Non Existence) is used.

  12. The notation ‘0’ denotes nil or negligible.

  13. The changes in the banking sector that have taken place since April 01, 2001 onwards are as follows:
