The RBI details in an affidavit that the PMC bank fraudulently submitted facts to the central bank for a sample check, but that “the accounts selected for inspection did not have unknown HDIL accounts.”

While the HDIL accounts shown by PMC Bank were overseen by the RBI inspection team, most of them were declared non-performing assets.

It also states that PMC Bank had also approved the mortgage limit for a wholly owned subsidiary of HDIL, when the bank’s chairman S.W. Variyam Singh was also a director of the company. This is a clear conflict of interest and violation of the RBI master circulars of July 2010 and July 2012 in effect.

S.W. Variyam Singh also chaired a meeting of the PMC bank board, where he approved the mortgage overdraft, again in violation of RBI norms.

The affidavit states that RBI’s inspection team has established links between Wariam Singh and HDIL promoters / directors (now arrested), which may help them get loan facility, and later with other lenders in arrears. Helped to pay a lump sum settlement.

Based on the available records, the scale of the breach and the associated debt, which was available, was very low due to ‘camouflage’ backed by PMC Bank, and what was noted was ‘flagged’, although it was not found Gaya much affects the financial health of the bank.

The inspection was completed on November 2, 2019 and the report is being ready, the affidavit said.

As per the preliminary findings, due to various financial irregularities, the PMC Bank’s networth had turned negative, with a significant erosion in deposits.

Detailing the “modus operandi of hiding the information related to HDIL exposure” employed by the PMC Bank, the RBI affidavit said they tampered with Management Information Systems and NPC Identification Process.

In this, the bank had given special access codes to the HDIL accounts with restricted visibility to less than 25 out of PMC Bank’s 1,800 staffers.

While running the script for system identification of the NPAs, it deliberately excluded the HDIL accounts which were thus omitted from the system generated reports of NPA accounts, and ditto with the Overdrawn Accounts list.

Government will infuse ₹10000 crore in the fund while the remaining ₹15000 crore will be contributed by State Bank of India, LIC and other financial institutions. The fund will help incomplete housing projects of less than ₹Two crores per unit in Mumbai, ₹One and half crores per unit in other metros including national capital region (NCR) and ₹One crore per unit in other parts of the country get ready for move-in.

“We welcome the announcement by the Finance Minister to set up a `Special Window` in the form of AIF and dedicate a fund of 25,000 crore for the completion of stalled housing projects. The move is expected to create an avenue of relief to homebuyers and the developers in the sector. The specific fund is expected to revive 80% of the real estate projects. This action by the government will induce cash flow in the system and kick start the revival process. This decision will not only help in completing the stuck projects in this sector, but will also regain the confidence of buyers to invest in real estate. The benefit will surely be felt in NCR and Mumbai region.” – Ashish Sarin, CEO, AlphaCorp 

Falling prices, shrinking sales and piling inventory have collectively created hurdles before the developers. Situation was worsening as the fear of default made financial bodies reluctant to lend for these projects. The consequent slump in the construction affected current jobs and future job prospects. The move would help generate considerable employment opportunities.

In an another relief, the industry players facing insolvency proceedings are allowed to avail funds, who were earlier debarred from the September package. The fund will also be available for projects declared defaulters. All these inclusion will collectively improve market sentiments for the real estate sector.

But, to avail the benefits of the fund the projects need to be registered in RERA (Real Estate Regulation and Development Act). Besides, they should have a positive net worth. Projects declared an NPA or are before the NCLT but not asked for liquidation will also get benefits. Financially viable projects lacking funds will be at the core and will get benefits from the allocation.
