PROJECT FINANCE

R VENKATESH CHIEF MANAGER & FACULTY STATE BANK ACADEMY GURGAON

INTRODUCTION
With a view to harnessing advancements in S&T

to economic development, GoI laid emphasis on industrialisation through successive Five Year Plans.
Rapid industrial development needed massive

investment.
Prior

to independence, there were no institutional arrangements for term finance.

INTRODUCTION
GoI,

therefore, established financial institutions:

the

following

Indl. Finance Corporation of India (1948) Indl. Credit & Inv. Corpn. of India (1955) Indl. Development Bank of India (1964) & Indl. Reconstruction Bank of India (1971) Similarly, State Governments also established

SFCs in their respective states.

INTRODUCTION
For long, commercial banks confined their

lendings to meet WC requirements only and they did not play any active role in extending term finance.
However, with increasing proportion of Term

Deposits in their deposit portfolio and the paucity of resources in the country, it was felt that banks could enter the field of term finance, in a role complementary to that of Term Lending Institutions.

PROJECT BACKGROUND
The purpose of term assistance is to meet a

part of the capital expenditure of a project.


A project can be defined as A scheme of things

to be done during a specified period in future for deriving expected benefits under certain assumed conditions.
A project may be in the nature of setting up a

new industrial unit, modernisation, expansion, diversification and promotion of R&D.

PROJECT BACKGROUND
To set up a project, certain capital expenditure

needs to be incurred in acquiring assets such as L&B, P&M and other infrastructural facilities like roads, water supply, railway sidings, etc., in addition to the Preliminary / Pre-Operative Expenses and margin on WC Limits.

Where promoters of a project are unable to

meet the entire capital expenditure out of their own resources, Term Loans are sanctioned to supplement the promoters contribution.

PROJECT BACKGROUND
Promoters

of an industrial project can constitute themselves into any of the following forms of business organisations to implement the project : Sole Proprietorship, JHF, Partnership, Co-operative Society & Joint Stock Company. around Joint Stock Company as promoter.

Our discussion of the subject would revolve

PROJECT BACKGROUND
The Promotion Stage is a crucial stage in the

entire life cycle of a project. Promotion in relation to a project will comprise broadly the following functions:
I] Identification of a project II] Feasibility investigation III] Assembling the proposition IV] Financing the proposition

I] Identification of a Project
The first step in the project promotion is the

identification of a project. An industrial project originates as an idea in a promoter when he observes the existence of a potential market for a certain product.
The promoter, on the basis of his experience,

background and ability, then considers the feasibility of manufacturing and marketing the product at a remunerative price.

II] Feasibility Investigation


A detailed feasibility study is a costly exercise.

It is, therefore, desirable that, before it is undertaken, marketability of the product to be manufactured is firmly established.
There are agencies, specialising in market

research, which conduct such market studies. Promoters may take advantage of their services.
A market study aims at assessing the aggregate

demand for a product.

II] Feasibility Investigation


The promoter will now undertake the detailed

feasibility investigation proper, comprising two feasibility studies:


i) The Technical Feasibility Study ii) The Economic Feasibility Study

II] Feasibility Investigation - Technical Feasibility


Technical Feasibility Study covers the following

aspects: Location of the project Lay-out of the Plant Size of the Plant Factory construction Manufacturing process / Technology Process Design Product Design Scale of Operation Infrastructural facilities

II] Feasibility Investigation - Economic Feasibility


The prime objective of setting up a project is

to derive a fair return on the investment.


Economic Feasibility Study, therefore, concerns

itself with matching of economic resources with the physical requirements of a project and determining the viability of investment therein.

III] Assembling the Proposition - CoP & MoF


When

a promoter is satisfied about the technical feasibility and economic viability of a project, the next task is to work out the Cost of the Project and the Means of financing it. (a) L&B (b) P&M (c) Misc. Fixed Assets (d) Technical Know-how, Engg. & Consultancy fees (e) Preliminary and Pre-operative expenses (f) Provision for contingencies (g) Margin on WC Limits

The Cost of the Project would broadly include:

IV] Financing the Proposition


Setting up of a project involves acquisition of

Fixed Assets which facilitate the process of production. Fixed Assets have a relatively longer life and are generally not meant for resale. They are required to be retained over a period of time to exploit their productive potential. and FG, which when sold bring in cash. This cycle is generally completed in a short period of less than one year.

C/A go through the operating cycle of RM, WIP

IV] Financing the Proposition


Thus, investment in C/A is realised over a short

term, while investment in Fixed Assets is long term in nature.


It is realised through surplus generated in the

form of Net Profits, Depreciation and other non-cash write-offs.


As it takes a long time for the Fixed Assets to

pay for themselves, the promoter should raise suitable long term funds to finance a project.

IV] Financing the Proposition


Keeping the foregoing in view, the promoter

will explore the financial feasibility of the project by examining


a) The possible long term sources of finance b) The feasible financial leverage c) The expected return on the investment

IV] Financing the Proposition - Long Term Sources


The aggregate amount of finance raised for

financing a project is referred to as Capital, comprising two components (a) Owned Capital and (b) Borrowed Capital.
The other sources of long term funds are:

(a) Capital Subsidy applicable to projects coming up in certain notified backward areas, and (b) Interest free sales tax loans offered by State Governments.

IV] Financing the Proposition - Financial Leverage


After considering availability of long terms

sources of finance, the promoter will decide about a suitable financial structure for the Company.
It will depend upon the financial leverage

envisaged in the combination of sources of finance under the two categories, viz., Owned Capital and Borrowed Capital.
Few projects can be financed entirely by equity

IV] Financing the Proposition - Financial Leverage


The divergent interests of debt and equity are

brought into alignment by the concept of Debt / Equity gearing which determines the level of debt that can be supported by a given quantum of equity.
For this purpose, Debt means Funded Debt

including all term liabilities and equity will include Share Capital and retained earnings, if available.

IV] Financing the Proposition - Return on Investment


The amount invested in a project can be

recouped through annual cash flows, over a period of time.


In arriving at a financial plan for the project, a

promoter will examine the attractiveness of the project, vis--vis alternative sources of investment.
The process which assists the management in

such a task is collectively known as Capital

IV] Financing the Proposition - Return on Investment


The most important and widely used Capital

Investment Evaluation techniques are:


Pay-back Method Net Terminal Surplus Method Excess Present Value Method Internal Rate of Return Method

IV] Financing the Proposition - Return on Investment


The object of Pay-back Method is to find out

the period of time required for recovering the entire amount of investment made in a project.
The cash flows (Net Profit + Depreciation +

Other non-cash write-offs) are compared with the outlay on the project to determine the payback period. Years to pay back would be: Total Investment Cash Flow per annum

IV] Financing the Proposition - Return on Investment


Net Terminal Surplus Method employs the

concept of compounding which involves reinvesting the simple interest earned each year along with the principal so that the principal grows each year by the amount of interest earned during the previous year and interest being calculated on the increased principal also grows.
Future Value = Principal x (1+i)

IV] Financing the Proposition - Return on Investment


Excess Present Value Method is based on the

discounted cash flow technique and uses the concept of discounting which is just the opposite of compounding.

In discounting, we arrive at the Present value

of a future sum to which the original amount (which we want to find out), invested at a particular compound rate of interest has grown. (1+i)

PV = Future sum

IV] Financing the Proposition - Return on Investment


Internal Rate of Return Method It is that rate

at which the sum of the discounted cash flows is equal to the investment outlay. In other words, IRR is the rate which makes the Present Value (PV) of benefits equal to the Present Value of costs or reduces the Net Present Value (NPV) to zero. The object of this method is to find the rate of return which a project is likely to earn over its useful life.
IRR =
Lower Discount Rate + Diff. Between the two discount rates x NPV at lower discount rate Abs. diff. between the two NPVs.

Types of Term Assistance


The types of term assistance extended by the

Bank can be broadly classified into:


I] Term Loans (Incl. Forex Loans) II] Deferred Payment Guarantees III] Bill Discounting Facilities IV] Underwriting of Shares / Debentures

Types of Term Assistance -Term Loan


A Term Loan is a loan granted for a fixed term

of not less than one year, intended normally for financing fixed assets acquired / to be acquired, carrying interest at a specified rate, and scheduled for repayment in instalments.
Depending on the term for which the said terms

loans are granted, they could be classified into (a) Short Term Loans (b) Medium Term Loans and (c) Long Term Loans.

Types of Term Assistance -DPG


Deferred

Payment Guarantee (DPG) is a contract to pay to the supplier the price of machinery, supplied by him on deferred terms, in agreed instalments with stipulated interest on the respective due dates in case of default in payment thereof by the buyer. Term Loan and, as far as the buyer of P&M is concerned, it serves the same purposes as a Term Loan.

A DPG is, in many respects, a substitute for a

Types of Term Assistance - Bills Discounting


Under a contract for sale of machinery on

deferred payment basis, the balance remaining to be paid after the initial down payment represents the deferred receivables of the seller.
Thus, the funds of the seller get blocked for

unduly long periods and the seller requires finance against such deferred receivables to replenish his Working Capital.

Types of Term Assistance - Bills Discounting


To facilitate availment of finance against the

deferred receivables, the seller usually draws a series of usance bills with graded maturities to coincide with the due dates of payment of the relative instalments (including applicable interest).
The usance bills drawn by the seller will be

accepted by the buyer before they are discounted by the sellers banker.

Types of Term Assistance - Underwriting of Shares


The necessity for underwriting arrangement

arises only in the case of a Public Limited Company resorting to raise through the capital issue market, a part of the Share Capital for part-financing a project. agrees, in consideration, to take up a specified number of shares or debentures or amount of debenture stock to be offered to the public, in the event of the public not subscribing for them.

Underwriting is a contract whereby a person

Types of Term Assistance - Underwriting of Shares


Underwriting as a business will come under the scope

of Investment Banking as distinct from Commercial Banking.


In view of this, therefore, a high degree of selectivity

should continue to be exercised in undertaking underwriting business.


However, the business stemmed not so much from the

point of view of earnings on the investment as from the consideration that no viable project enjoying national priority should suffer for want of underwriting support.

Project Appraisal
The purpose of Project Appraisal is to ascertain

whether the project will be sound technically, economically, financially and managerially and ultimately viable as a commercial proposition. examination of:

The appraisal of a project will involve the a) Technical Feasibility : To determine the

A project should also be examined, wherever

Project Appraisal
The first step in Project Appraisal is to find out

whether the project is prima facie acceptable by examining salient features such as:
The background and experience of the applicants,

particularly in the proposed line of activity


The potential demand for the product The availability of the required inputs, utilities and

other infrastructural facilities


Whether the project is in keeping with the priorities,

if any, laid down by the Government.

The original application may not contain all the

basic data / information. In such cases, it may be necessary to interview the applicants and elicit all the necessary data / information with a view to forming an overall idea about the general feasibility of the project. acceptability of the project, the Branch should call for from the promoters, an Application, containing the following essential data / information, such as:

After satisfying itself about the prima facie

a) Particulars of the project along with a copy

of the Project Report furnishing details of the technology, manufacturing process, availability of construction / production facilities, etc.

authorities and any other relevant information.

Project Appraisal
In respect of existing concerns, in addition to

this information, particulars regarding the history of the concern, its past performance, present financial position, etc., should also be called for.
The Application completed in all respects and

duly signed by the authorised signatories of the Company will form the basis for the detailed appraisal of the project.

Project Appraisal
An inspection of the project site (or factory in

the case of existing units) is a must.

Each project has to be examined in proper

perspective having due regard to its nature, size and scope. appraising the viability of various projects are more or less the same, there could be no standard or uniform approach for appraising all projects.

Although the basic techniques employed for

Therefore, it is not so much the quantum of the

Project Appraisal
In project appraisal, nothing should be assumed

or taken for granted.


All the data / information should be checked

and, wherever possible, counter-checked through inter-firm and inter-industry comparisons.


It should be borne in mind that Healthy

scepticism is a cardinal virtue in project appraisal.
