INTRODUCTION AND DESIGN OF THE STUDY
1.1 INTRODUCTION:
The Indian microfinance sector witnessed tremendous growth over the last five years,
during which institutions were subject to little regulation. Micro credit programmes extend small
loans to poor people for self-employment projects that generate income, allowing them to care
for themselves and their families. Some microfinance institutions were subject to prudential
requirements; however no regulation addressed lending practices, pricing, or operations.
Micro credit has come to be recognized and accepted as one of the new development
paradigms for alleviating poverty through social and economic empowerment of the poor, with
focus on empowering women. Credit is usually provided to groups of individuals or village
organizations that use joint-liability to enforce loan repayment. Through group savings and
loans, poor people often increase their economic security and well being. Over the past two
decades micro credit programs have emerged as one of the leading strategies in the overall
movement to end poverty. Micro credit programmes have become a major tool of development
and found to be the only practical and most appropriate solution to alleviate poverty.
Micro credit programmes have been employed in developing countries for some years,
and their effectiveness in the development and poverty alleviation is increasingly acknowledged.
In many countries micro credit programmes have proved to be an effective tool in freeing people
from poverty and have helped to increase their participation in the economic and political
processes of society. The Asia-Pacific region is home to many micro credit institutions, and the
majority of programs are directed at women in rural areas. Targeting women as clients of micro
credit programs has been an effective method to ensure that the benefits of increased family
income are directed towards the general welfare of the family, and particularly the children. The
combination of minimal regulation and rapid sector growth led to an environment where
customers were increasingly dissatisfied with microfinance services, culminating in the Andhra
Pradesh crisis in the fall of 2010. For the purpose of this article, data published by National Bank
for Agriculture and Rural Development in India have been used.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Microfinance needs a lot of regulation in the country as the experience with
private microfinance has not been very good, though the Andhra Pradesh Government was
extending microfinance to self-help groups at 3.5 per cent interest rate, private institutions were
charging between 20 and 25 per cent. “When a person is still fighting poverty, you cannot expect
him to pay high interest,” Microfinance was usually taken for onetime investments and though
the poor seek money for creating an asset and thereby economic activity, they generally end up
clearing previous debts or giving it away in dowry to their daughter’s marriage or paying
hospital bills. Microfinance is largely supporting to SHG’s, various banks are supporting for the
growth of microfinance. In order to find out the reason for the above said the researcher has
framed the objectives below.

CHAPTER- II
MICROFINANCE AND SELF HELP GROUP
2.1 MICROFINANCE IN INDIA
Microfinance sector has traversed a long journey from micro savings to micro credit and
then to micro enterprises and now entered the field of micro insurance, micro remittance and
micro pension. This gradual and evolutionary growth process has given a great opportunity to the
rural poor in India to attain reasonable economic, social and cultural empowerment, leading to
better living standard and quality of life for participating households. Financial institutions in the
country continued to play a leading role in the microfinance programme for nearly two decades
now. They have joined hands proactively with informal delivery channels to give microfinance
sector the necessary momentum. During the current year too, microfinance has registered an
impressive expansion at the grass root level.
NABARD has been instrumental in facilitating various activities under microfinance
sector, involving all possible partners at the ground level in the field. NABARD has been
encouraging voluntary agencies, bankers, socially spirited individuals, other formal and informal
entities and also government functionaries to promote and nurture SHGs. The focus in this
direction has been on training and capacity building of partners, promotional grant assistance to
Self Help Promoting Institutions (SHPIs), Revolving Fund Assistance (RFA) to MFIs, equity/
capital support to MFIs to supplement their financial resources and provision of 100 per cent
refinance against bank loans provided by various banks for microfinance activities.
2.2 MODELS OF MICROFINANCE
i. SHG - Bank Linkage Model: This model involves the SHGs financed directly by the
banks viz., CBs (Public Sector and Private Sector), RRBs and Cooperative Banks.
ii. MFI - Bank Linkage Model: This model covers financing of Micro Finance Institutions
(MFIs) by banking agencies for on-lending to SHGs and other small borrowers.
iii. Joint Liability Model: this is a comparatively newer model. These are small groups of
about 5 members and many such groups come together at the centre level.
iv. Lending to the individual by the banks or MFIs: in this the MFIs or the banks give loan to
the individuals who are then themselves responsible for the repayment of the loans.

2.3 MICROFINANCE IN TAMILNADU
Micro credit programs are successfully implemented in many countries. The principles
and procedures behind micro-credit are simple, but the system is widely effective. Small
business loans are provided to people who are not able to get loans from other institutions
because they have no credit history and the interest rates are enormous (regular interest rates in
Tamil Nadu on loans range from 36% to 120% from banks and private money lenders). Small
business loans are provided to groups of people (Self Help Groups) who trust each other and are
together responsible for the loan. By starting up small businesses with loans people are in charge
of their own future independent of the goodwill of others. Micro credit loans allow people the
opportunity and dignity to create a sustainable income for themselves. Besides that, loans
prepare the borrower also for the commercial world should their enterprise get big enough for the
formal business sector. The increase in income has a positive effect on the whole family, or even
the community. When the loan is repaid in full, people can look forward to a better overall and
financial future, while the returned funds can now provide the same opportunity and benefits to
another family. AID INDIA’s micro credit system is based on the principles of the famous
Grameen Bank (Bangladesh) micro credit system. We modified the micro credit program taking
into account the situations and laws of Tamil Nadu in the implementation of this program.
The District Central Cooperative Banks and Urban Cooperative Banks are implementing
this unique scheme to benefit marginalized small and petty merchants and street vendors
engaged in the business of selling flowers, vegetables, fruits and running petty shops. They are
the most vulnerable group for exploitation by usurious money lenders. Their credit requirements
are very small but critical. This scheme which was launched by this Government has been
amplified and streamlined over the years. Under the scheme the loan amount up to Rs.5000/- is
being provided without any security.
Madura Micro Finance Limited (MMFL) whose core business is providing financial
products i.e. credit, to the rural customer is poised for rapid growth in the next three years. A
clear strategy and the necessary systems have been put in place to propel the company to greater
heights. The primary customer for MMFL is women and together with self-help groups (SHG’s)
the company expects to touch a figure of 1.5 million members from the current 400,000 in the
next three years. MMFL is focused only in Tamilnadu and hopes to reach 20% of the rural
households in Tamilnadu.
Grama Vidiyal Micro Finance Ltd (GVMFL), the largest microfinance institution in
Tamil Nadu, will go for its second round of equity funding of about Rs 50 crore shortly.
GVMFL, which started off as an NGO trust to address the issues of poverty and women’s
empowerment, converted itself into an NBFC (non-banking financial company). Its loans to self-
help group (SHG) members are typically for six months to one year and range from Rs 1,000 to
Rs 7,000 a member in the first instance. Once their track record of regular repayment is
established, members become eligible to draw higher amounts.
In Tamilnadu microcredit is given to individuals but it mainly focused women
empowerment. There are so many microcredit/microfinance institutions in Tamilnadu is to help
raise the socio-economic status of women and children belonging to the weaker sections of
society and thus enabling them to become productive members of society. New Life, through its
community owned association structures known as Affinity Association of Self Help Groups
(AASHG), plays an active role in promoting and providing micro-credit. The AASHGs are
community based groups comprised of women leaders that manage the credit needs of the
individuals within that community. Community based affinity associations are one of the most
effective way in channeling the loans to the borrowers. The AASHGs are responsible for
gathering and validating the credit needs of the borrowers, and then New Life through its partner
organization seeks to fulfill these Credit needs.
2.4 MICRO-CREDIT BENEFITS THE POOR
There is clear evidence that MF benefits the poor by providing them savings
opportunities and credit. Barrowers often increase their incomes and improve their livelihood
because of micro-credit. The employment impact is, however more limited. MF leads to changes
in the use of technology only of the less poor as adoption of new technology is risky and the
poorer borrowers are more risk averse. The poor also benefit from mF a sense of involvement
and dignity. Where wide gender disparities abound, MF catering to women raises their sense of
participation and increases their empowerment. There is however little evidence that MF
succeeds in transforming a community from poverty to prosperity.
An economically poor individual gains strength as part of a group. Besides, financing
through SHGs reduces transaction costs for both lenders and borrowers. While lenders have to
handle only a single SHG account instead of a large number of small-sized individual accounts,
borrowers as part of a SHG cut down expenses on travel (to & from the branch and other places)
for completing paper work and on the loss of workdays in canvassing for loans.
2.5 SCOPE OF MICRO FINANCE
Micro finance usually refers to investments with more opportunity for high profits, and
also more risk: options, futures, currency trading, penny stocks, etc. Profits can be in the double
digit percentages per day! But so can losses, if you're not careful. Other short-term investments,
like money market funds, can be very conservative and designed to earn a little while keeping
your money safe in anticipation of some upcoming need, such as a down payment for a house in
a few weeks or months. Microfinance is a broad category of services, which includes
microcredit. Microcredit is provision of credit services to poor clients. Although microcredit is
one of the aspects of microfinance, conflation of the two terms is endemic in public discourse.
Critics often attack microcredit while referring to it indiscriminately as either 'microcredit' or
'microfinance'.
The sources of Micro financing include trade credit, bank loans, bankers acceptances,
finance company loans, commercial paper, receivable financing, and inventory financing. One
particular source may be more appropriate than another in a given circumstance; some are more
desirable than others because of interest rates or collateral requirements. Note: Banker`s`
acceptances is a time draft payable on a specified date and guaranteed by the bank.
2.6 SELF-HELP GROUPS AND MICRO-FINANCE
There is a welcome recognition in the Finance Minister's speech of the role MFIs have
played in catering to the credit needs of the poorer sections of rural society. This is a function
mainline bank in India and most other countries have been unable to do on their own. Since
February 2000 when the Reserve Bank of India gave priority sector status to loans provided by
banks to the MFIs, the activity has been mainstream. Experience of operating a micro-credit
model pioneered by the National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD)
during 1991-92 has shown that establishing a linkage between an SHG and a bank is the best
method for bringing SHGs into the ambit of formal banking especially because it infuses a
degree of professionalism into the services offered to the rural poor.
The budget has ambitious plans to extend the target of credit linking for 2005-06 from
200,000 self-help groups to 250,000. The Government hopes to enhance the beneficial role of the
MFIs as an intermediary between banks and rural borrowers. Commercial banks will be allowed
to appoint MFIs as their "banking correspondents" for providing a variety of services on their
behalf. That will vastly increase their reach and remove some of the intractable rigidities that
have stood in the way of the spread of rural banking. Close to 70 per cent of the rural poor do not
have a bank account and 87 per cent do not have access to credit from a formal source. The
proposal to appoint MFIs as agents for micro-insurance products will help spread the insurance
habit and enable them to earn a fee income. Another significant proposal is to let the eligible
MFIs seek equity support from the redesignated Micro Finance Development and Equity Fund,
which has a corpus of Rs. 200 crore.
Originally confined to the southern States, micro-finance is fast spreading to the rest of
India. For the banking system, the SHG linkage has been a winning proposition. It has resulted in
lower transaction costs, negligible defaults, and the generation of enormous goodwill. The MFIs
have been adept at providing customized solutions based on their understanding of local
conditions. However, a number of weaknesses remain. Banks have not yet standardized their
approach towards micro-lending. A lack of infrastructure and design facilities and also
worthwhile distribution channels for marketing the products has constrained growth. A number
of initiatives are needed to keep the micro-finance system on track. The goal is to make it a
dispenser not just of credit but of a variety of social goods and services to the rural poor.
2.7 MICRO-FINANCE AND ITS OBJECTIVES
The concept of microfinance is not new. Savings and credits groups that have operated
for centuries include the “susus” of Ghana, “chit funds” in India, “tandas” in Mexico, and
“pasanaku” in Bolivia, as well as numerous savings clubs and burial societies found all over the
world. One of the earlier and longer lived microcredit organizations was the Irish loan fund
system, initiated in the early 1700s. The term micro-finance is commonly used in addressing
issues related to poverty alleviation, financial support to micro-entrepreneurs and gender
development etc. Micro- finance can be defined as “provision of thrift, credit and other financial
services and products of very small amounts to the poor in rural, semi- urban or urban areas for
enabling them to raise their income levels and improve living standards “.
The term micro-finance sometimes is used interchangeably with the term micro-credit.
However, while micro-credit refers to purveyance of loans in small quantities, the term micro
finance has a broader meaning covering in its ambit other financial services like saving,
insurance etc.
The main benefits of micro-finance appear to be reduced vulnerability of the poor to
adverse circumstances, increased consumption in the same group and empowerment of women.
Fortunately, micro-finance practice in India like some other countries has much to offer to the
rural population. These include poverty alleviation, livelihood promotion, developing the local
economy, gender empowerment, building organizations and changing wider systems and
institutions within society.
2.8 DEVELOPMENT OF SHGS
Self Help Groups are considered as one of the most significant tools to adopt
participatory approach for the economic empowerment of women. It is an important institution
for improving the life of women on various social and economic components. The basic
objective of an SHG is that it acts as the forum for members to provide space and support to each
other and get financial sustainability through adopting micro-enterprises based on availability of
resources, prevalent skill and availability of markets for sale of products. Group entrepreneurship
is ideal for weaker sections of the society and it is an instrument which helps the poor women to
overcome their poverty. It gives employment opportunities for illiterates.
2.9 FORMATION OF SELF HELP GROUPS
An SHG both by definition and in practice is a group of individual members who by free
association come together for a common collective purpose. In practice SHG comprise
individual members known to each other coming from the same village, community and even
marketing neighborhood. That is they are homogeneous and have certain pre group social
binding factors. In the context of micro-finance, SHG are formed around the theme of savings
and credit.
Self-Help Groups don't start with credit; they start as savers groups, with regular weekly
for forthrightly saving targets. Each number of the group has to save a small amount per month.
The savings are deposited in a meeting on an appointed time every week, and the collected
saving are lent to members, with the decision on who gets the loan being taken by the group; in
many groups saving are entered in individual passbooks. Some groups pay interest on saving,
others pay dividends; but most have retained their earnings as part of their capital. An account is
opened with a mainline bank to deposit any surplus savings. After some six months, the bank
where the savings were deposited examines the performance of the group and issues loans to the
group. The SHG in turn increases its capacity to manage high amount of finance, develop
entrepreneurial and communication skills and logical ability, cooperative sense and finally
income and employment generating confidence.
The main objective of SHGs is to inculcate the habit of thrift, savings and banking
culture to gain economic prosperity through credit. The most important component of SHG is the
mobilization and organization of women towards the basic strength of solidarity, informality and
collective action. Self Help Group methodology is a novel approach in development of
economics. These groups can create a unique, alternative, need-based credit delivery mechanism
by pooling their insufficient resources for catering to their consumption and occupational
requirement.
3.0 CHARACTERISTICS OF A GOOD SELF HELP GROUP
Well-functioning SHG should have following structural features:
An ideal SHG comprises 15-20 members.
All the members should belong to the same socio-economic strata of society specifically
poor.
Group should have strong bond of affinity.
Rotational leadership should be encouraged for distribution of power and to provide
leadership opportunities to all the members.
Members should attend meetings, save and participate in all activities voluntarily.
To provide gainful employment and to involve the poor in productive activities.
An SHG should be socially viable institution.
The procedure of decision-making in SHG should be democratic in nature.
It should be non-partisan in nature.
The group is frames rules and regulations which are required for its effective functioning.
To involve women in decision making and to promote leadership qualities among them.
