First of all the financing should be prudent. There is no scope for the banks to use force, but for willful defaulters the Legal remedies should be enforced strictly and timely to recover the public money.

There are people enjoying the bank loans without repaying, despite having means to repay, there the tools available to the banks should be used "efficiently" and professionally.

Hi Friends, According to me in India three types of people exist. First who are poor, 2nd who are middle class and 3rd who are rich. Loan are those people who are needy. Banker always try their force on poor and middle class people who sometimes unable to pay loan due to some strong reasons. But bankers not say anything to rich people. Bank should try to understand the problem of needy people. Instead of using force Bank try to give them some more time to pay back loan.

HELLO,

Myself completely disagree with the statement. Use of force to recover loan is false statement. Because banker can apply force to main on farmers and small business owners.

1. For above category are always willing to pay the all loan amount regularly if no unforeseen things happen.

2. But for the case of big business man and millionairess never pay loans. So many examples are there.

I conclude that only bank can take documentation perfect that payout period completed then recover by law should be clear.

Hello,

Banks are acting as a trustees and not as a owner of the funds. The loans are given from the deposits made by the public in general. Moreover, in present scenario the banks are also answerable to its shareholders. The bank finance is not a charity. It is given to the needy person only after the request of a person.

However, before sanctioning the loan to any person/institute, the bank should thoroughly examine about the project and its viability. If it fails to do so, there are more chances of getting it bad. There are number of elements, which effect the recovery of the loan. If a person/institute is financially sound and yet not repaying the loan they are willful defaulters and bank should take strict actions against them. For the reasons above control, if the project fails, bank should take lenient actions and try to rehabilitate them.

Hence, only after considering the reasons for failure of loan, bank should take proper action to recover the money.

Thank you.

Use of physical force as a means of recovering loans by banks should be strictly dealt with as it is unconstitutional and literally a case of white collared hooliganism.

Instead a bank should do a thorough background check of the borrower so that the risk of default is minimized.

Also the government should encourage PSU banks to offer loans on cheaper interest rates and flexible EMIs so that it is easier for an individual to repay any loans.

Stringent laws should be enacted against people who default deliberately so that banks can have a upper hand when dealing with such people.

In My Opinion. This is a Wrong way to use Force by Bank to recover Loans.

Because There Are Different types of Peoples in India According their Profession.

Some Peoples Are Good Business Man, Some Are Employee, Some are Farmer & Other Are Poor & unemployment.

First of All. If a Person Do not Repaying their Loans Payment, a Bank Should Know About Why He/She is not Repaying their Loan Payment. If His Condition is Critically So A Bank Should Create A Settlement letter to recover their Loans. If After the Settlement Letter, Person do not repay their Bank Loan Payment. Then A Bank Should Send a NOTICE to a Person Who take the Loan as Legally.

If After that He/She is not able to Pay Their Loans Payment. Then A Bank Should Create A Legal Notice That If A Person Have Son/Daughter, if He/She is above Age Or Under Age of 18, Then He/She Would Fulfill His Father/Mother Loans Payments Time To Time. If His Son/Daughter Will Not Repay Their Payment then Company Will Take A Strict Action Against Him/Her.

& A Bank Will be Liable To Seize His/Her Whole & any type of Property Legally.

Hi Friends, According to me three types of people are exist in India. One who are able pay their loan and they are even paying on time 2nd thosse who want to pay loan but they are not able to do because of some financial problem And Last one are those who never want to repay their loan. So I Think Bank should be careful when they are giving Loan to people. And bank should give much more time to 2nd type of people to pay their loan before taking any strong action But immediate take strong action against 3rd type of people.

Right now in Bangladesh there are a lot of banks and financial institution are playing in the same fields. Every banks or financial institutions has set high target in terms of disbursement or profit maximization. The high target set is the main problem from the banks or FIs side. To maintain this, the officials of the these institutions make unhealthy competition in the market. For example- "X" Bank disbursed a certain amount of loan to a particular good customer with high creditworthiness. But the "Y" bank approach to the same customer I will be you loan just double of the "X" bank and You need not to liquidate the loan of bank "X" loan.

In that case, the borrower cannot properly use the fund or somehow get the scope to divert the fund because his/her business doesn't require excess fund. In that case he/she can not maintain or repay both the bank loan installments properly because the business is not generating the expected cash flow.

So I will emphasized on the relationship banking (Customer-bank) activities besides high credit worthiness of the customer. Relationship banking can prevent default of the loan.

First of all we should bifurcate the people into two. 1) will full defaulters and another genuine. Now a days willfull defaulters have turned out a lot. Hence in order to arrest the same a slight negatativity has to spread to create awareness as well to inculcate the habit of repaying the installments on time. 2) genuine - banks have do certain provisions to cut down the rate of interest or to delay the period of repaying the loan. Finally banks are for the devolopment of the country which has great impact on the economy of the country.

Some banks behave like local financiers to recover their loan amount from the borrower. They harass over the phone, they send their staff home and threaten to humiliate the borrower even after knowing that he or she has a genuine problem. Hence you read about suicides by people who are unable to deal with this kind of harassment. Does the reserve bank of India not have any laws to help the borrowers in times of crisis.

Hi friends.

Banks provide loans to help people in their bad financial conditions but if people will not pay back than banks need to hold a bid to get back their money. This is only option but using force is not good option because India is a developing country and anything like using force make a bad impression on people and threat others to stay away from taking loans.

As a for profit organisation, banks should be responsible for the defaulted loans they issue, as an investor is responsible for a bad investment. If one purchases stock and loses money, one has no right to assault, through either legal or physical means, the institution from which they purchased the stock in order to gain financial restitution. When a loan is issued, the bank accepts a degree of risk. If their customer defaults on a loan and cannot supply the required funds, for whatever reason, the bank has accepted the risk and must therefore also accept the financial loss. The defaulter will have to suffer legal ramifications for dishonoring the arrangement (i.e. Bad credit). There is absolutely no justification for the physical or verbal harassment of a person because they are UNABLE to pay their debts.

But people should know that banks not meant for charity rather they are a well established financial institutions and work for profit motive.

RBI has declared the use of force for loan recovery as illegal. But, RBI should make its rules of loan recovering flexible so that both the interest of the bank and its customers is judged and protected.

Use of force by banks to recover money is not only illegal but also unethical, and no body can take law into their hands.

Bank lends money collected from depositors to loanees and any default in repayment affects the money available for further lending. Hence bank need to recover the money lend and the borrowers have an obligation to repay. But sometimes there are instances beyond the control of borrowers due to which they are unable to repay and in such cases banks have to give time or reschedule the loan or can resort to lawful means.

Again banks resort to such force only in respect of small farmers but in respect of big borrowers the same banks give compromise and negotiated settlements etc. Banks should adopt a uniform approach with regard to recovery.

Banks can avoid this kind of a situation if banks at the time of granting the advance exercise more cautious approach. Many a times sanction after protracted visits by prospective customers is one of the reason for the borrower not paying in time.

Banks have got a a duty to educate its customers on the benefits of availing loans only to that extent which they can comfortably repay.

Banks have to comply with the banking codes.

If banks use force repeatedly,0ver a period of time the good borrowers may not be willing to avail loans which will ultimately affect the business of banking itself.

Banks these days provide loans to its customer just without any tight information of the borrower. Thus, it creates a situation of inconvenience for them to recover it. In such situation the institute is left with with no other option other than to use some malice means. As such the money the borrower borrowed is the money of other individual in rotation basics. Therefore it has to be endowed with such power to recover it by any means.

The role of a bank in lending is likened to that of a BRIDGE across a river; the bank takes money from the surplus unit and give to the deficit side, this role is based on trust as the fund belongs to the public. Therefore, failure on the part of a borrower to repay a loan is a breach of public trust.
It is noteworthy to mention that the release of funds to any borrower at any point in time is a privilege as there are many others who also require the same fund and as such this should not be abused by borrowers. For purposes of sustainable trust and integrity and for economic growth, banks must ensure that every fund given out as loan must be recovered, if need be, some level of force may be applied, depending on a given situation.

No I don, t think that banks should take such a cheap measure to extract their money out. Banks first of all should carefully go through the purpose for which the customer is taking loan and if feels satisfied than only loan should be granted and moreover after granting loan if bank feels that instalments are not properly or timely coming than bank should start taking actions like timely notice or reminder to the customer, timely visit at the customer, s and gradually warning him for legal action rather than directly sending the force because it ultimately affects the reputation of the bank and hence nation's.

Hi Friends, according to my view bank have no right to send goons to the customer's door. Bank first check the credit of the person who is coming for loan. Only on the bases of person annual income and its others property, bank should give the loan. On the same time bank should tell all its condition regarding the loan to the costumer. Before last date bank should call the costumer and recall him about his/her loan and said to him to pay loan at the time. If any one is fail than banks should first give a legal notice to the costumer after that bank should make a case against him in court. FORCE is not the solution of such these condition.

Though there are many options, using force is more viable that too for cheaters who has gone abscond. Proper customer evaluation mechanism should be in use to prevent this case at the beginning stage. Risk profiles should be created and should be cautious with customers placed under high risk category. Wat if the person with high credibility becomes bankrupt? there's no other way than to own the security pledged by the defaulter. But if it's an unsecured loan which is given on the will of the manager judging the customer's credit worthiness? The only way is to recall by force but it may have negative impacts which may make the customer to take hasty decision like ending his life. So it's up to the management to make the advance after looking at various security concerns.

I think bank should not use recovery agent, which can be avoided by carefully examine the history or the capacity of the repayment og the customer. If he seems to be unable to re pay bank should not grant any loan if granted also bank must try to recover by way of legal means and if not possible by any legal action then as a very last option he can try to recover his loan by force, but this can be avoided if bank creats a seperate cell which will examin the payment capacity of the customer before grantion the loan.

The solution is very simple ...banks must do their homework nicely before giving loans.

According to my opinion, a bank should recover the loan amount early as possible. Because that is public's money. The term banking means accepting the deposits from the public for the purpose of lending them in a profitable manner. So the bank act as a mediator for the public. They should have the authority to recover or collect the loan amount. But it would not be in a forcible manner. There is no need to use the force. Because the customer or the public that he have already given their asset as collateral security. They can use these for sale. The bank should have the responsibility to check the credible worthiness of the customer or check whether the customer is able to repay or not.

I accept the fact that there is some amount of fault with the bank but people ? are they very correct in what they are doing ? If you know that you will not be able to pay the amount why do you have to get the loan. In cases where something backfires unexpectedly I can understand but there are people who deliberately get loans and avoid paying them back and the bank has to take some step as money is in stake. So the fault lies with both I'll say. The bank should act responsibly while giving loans and so should citizens applyinng for loans.

Credit cards etc only spiral the total dues. If a cstomer cannot pay, there are late fees, finance charges, overlimit charges, service charge etc. That is not all. There is even a service charge for adding late fee to the a/c. What can a person do in such a situation?

Well when we all aply for a loan Bank always check Customer Credit History,so some of my friends giving suggesion for CIBIL, But banks perform their duty in a proper way.I have been worked in Bank Collection & i saw many person who takes loan just for default.i dont know what is the problem with cust, when they need Finance they walk up to bank and when bank need their return they simply SKIP. i don't know why they walk up to their RELATIVES when they require finance.why only bank. some cust says your sales executive keep on calling for taking loan so we took ,but have u ever travel in Train , Buses, there are lots of small seller they do lot of activity to convince us to purchase their product, but we only purchase if we need it ,otherwise we ignore it.

SO now the conclusion is this if banks are proiding loan to customer when they really need then what is the problem with the customer to pay back ??????

No doubt bank always help to customer in every circumstances. But customer wil be customer his mindset is to default, customer has money to pay mob bills, electric bill,school fee, vehicle fuel, then why not for BANK ?????

There is a agency called Credit Information Bureau India Limited (CIBIL) which provides credit history of an individual (if he is not applying for the loan or any type of credit for the first time) bank check their credit report and also ask individual for some colletral securities so that the risk of credit default could be minimized.

Arun, I appreciate your words but think of the situation when people needs money. They are not just taking it for the comfort of their life, they are taking because they are in need. Firstly the bank should take note of the property available with the customer. If the customer don't have enough property they should not be given loan. But this is also not a solution, the bank should impose different loan interest to different customer depending on the annual income. This might solve the problem.

I accept the fact that there is some amount of fault with the bank but people ??? are they very correct in what they are doing ?? If you know that you will not be able to pay the amount why do you have to get the loan . In cases where something backfires unexpectedly I can understand but there are people who deliberately get loans and avoid paying them back and the bank has to take some step as money is in stake . So the fault lies with both I'll say . The bank should act responsibly while giving loans and so should citizens applyinng for loans.

This a very unethical practice which is being practiced by Banks nowadays to recover the loans which they have given to less credit worthy people of the society...banks should not follow this practice as it will lead to crime and it also brings inefficiencies in our financial system...so,banks should follow fair credit practices and follow the norms and guidelines give by the Apex bank regarding in giving advances and loans.

Banks these days are selling loans like vegetables to feed the profit hungry shareholders and then using all kind of tactics like sending goons to recover the money. This is not acceptable to any society. India is a country where nearly 40% are living in extreme poverty and other 25% are just above this poverty line...They will accept any kind of loan without even considering its terms and conditions. My point is the banks must ensure the repayment capacity without exception before approving loans. This is also critical to the reputation of not just Banks but the whole financial system.
