Notes:

• Cost of Property (COP) = (Value mentioned in Registered Sale deed/conveyance deed/lease deed/allotment letter + amount of stamp duty + registration cost + cost of amenities as per the amenities agreement/Fixtures and Fittings (F&F) agreement

+ electricity connection charges + charges

applied by society for transfer). If stamp duty is paid on the amenities agreement / F&F then the actual cost as mentioned in the amenities agreement is considered else the amount is capped to 25% of the balance payment (other than F&F) made to the builder / seller The disbursement of the amount against the F&F agreement, can be made either to borrower or to builder / seller. In cases where the builder has registered the structure and has then provided a finishing agreement to the borrower (which would be in line with the market practice), a separate F&F agreement would not be accepted.

• # Market Value (MV) = Value of the property as assessed by the empanelled property appraiser. Stamp duty, Registration charges etc cannot be added to the market value.

• @

Cost of construction = Value mentioned in the construction estimate provided by the borrower. This estimate of construction cost has to be vetted by the empanelled valuer, and in case the empanelled valuer’s reported value of the estimate is lower, then lower value to be considered for LTV.

• ##

Cost of Plot of land = Value of the plot of land mentioned in the registered Sale deed / Allotment letter / Conveyance deed / lease deed plus registration cost plus stamp duty. If the value of the plot as mentioned in the valuation report is lower than the value mentioned in the documents, the lower value to be considered for LTV calculation. In RSCL cases, if the land was purchased and registered by the borrower 5 years prior to the date of application, market value of land can be considered for the purposes of calculating LTV. However, in such cases where the market value is being considered, the cost of construction taken for the purposes of LTV would be lower of Rs.1200 per sq.ft. or as estimated by the valuer.

• **Cost of extension = Value mentioned in the construction estimate provided by the borrower. This estimate of extension cost to be vetted by the empanelled valuer and in case the empanelled valuer’s reported value is lower, the lower value to be considered for LTV calculations.

• ***Cost of improvement = Value mentioned in the improvement estimate provided by the borrower. This estimate of improvement cost to be vetted by the empanelled valuer and in case the empanelled valuer’s reported value is lower, the lower value to be considered for LTV calculations

• @@ Value considered = Lower of the two market valuations done by empanelled property appraisers

• No LTV deviations beyond product norms would be allowed for RHPL, RHPLR, RSCL, RPCL and HEL.

Page 76: PNB Policy

Guideline Bulletin: Product and Credit

July 2011

76

• Credit Bureau Score :

The Credit Bureau reports give a score for every customer. The credit bureau score gives an overall perspective of the strength of the past performance of the customer. As a general rule, if the score is greater than 800, the performance is considered good. In such cases, the Hub Underwriter would review the track records in the individual reports and decide whether to take the case ahead or not.

• Interpretation of CREDIT BUREAU reports relating to Credit cards:

If the credit bureau score is less than 800, then the interpretation grid shared in this section should be used. For different default levels, the authorities specified in the grid should review the case and decide. In case the CREDIT BUREAU report reflects defaults in repayments related to a credit card, subject to other terms and conditions mentioned hereunder, the default can be waived as per the following matrix: Delinquent and / or Write off cases:

Overdue Amount Mitigants Approving Authority

<=Rs 25,000/-

Clean RTR => 12 mths of any other unsecured loan or credit card

or Clean RTR of >= 18 mths of any other secured loan

or Documentary evidence of delay or write-off due to any service dispute on account of incorrect billing by the credit card company.

Any amount overdue and written off more than 3 years ago to be ignored. 4. In write off cases, the repayment track record mitigating the write-off should pertain to a period after the write-off was done. E.g. if the write off of

Rs. 20000 happened on 1st January 2010, the mitigating repayment track record should be for 12 months after 1

st January 2010.

29 ANNEXURE 10 – STAGES OF CONSTRUCTION AND DISBURSEMENT AT EACH STAGE Self Construction – Residential property: The disbursement of Construction loan will be made in installments depending on the equity /margin money of the Borrower and the progress of construction. The Borrower would have to complete his contribution (total estimate – sanctioned loan amount) before the first disbursement is made to him. The quantum of first disbursement would depend on the technical appraisal report of the empanelled appraiser which would mention the amount required to reach the next land mark stage in the house construction. The critical stages of house construction would be 1. Plinth level 2. Lintel level 3. Roof cast level 4. Internal & external plaster level 5. Flooring Level 6. Finishing Level At each request for disbursement, valuer would visit the property and provide a report on the progress, based on which the decision to release the disbursement would be taken. The first tranche of disbursement would be made net of Borrower’s equity. Ie. If borrower’s equity is 15% of the total cost, borrower would be asked to invest his margin money on construction and then a disbursement of upto 25% (40% - 15%) can be made in the First Tranche. For the subsequent tranches, disbursement would be made based on progress (as confirmed in valuer’s report) and upon receipt of proof of payments made to contractor / Architect for construction. Thus the second disbursal would be made after, 40% investment of total cost has been made on the property and proof of the same provided to PNBHFL. The amount of second disbursement would be decided by the Credit unit, based on the progress reported by the valuer and also taking into consideration the customer’s requirement. Parallel Funding

Parallel funding would be allowed for approved developer projects. The customer can stagger putting in his equity, alongwith the disbursements from PNBHFL. Parallel funding would work in the following manner

The valuation in under-construction projects is done once a quarter. Whenever a demand letter is received to be processed for disbursement, progress mentioned in the demand letter would be compared with the latest progress available with PNBHFL. A decision on whether the progress as per demand letter is acceptable or not, would be taken by the Credit as stated above. Inclusion of any developer / society for this pattern of development would be approved by Regional Credit Head. C. Disbursement as per Stage of Construction: Under this method, disbursement would be done based on the construction progress as reported in the valuer’s report.

Technical Deviations – Construction area different from plan: There are occasions where construction done at site is over a larger area than the approved plan. This is an area deviation over and above what is approved by the Municipal authority and hence is open to the risk of legal action from municipal authorities. All major players in competition finance such properties with deviations. The following technical deviation matrix is permitted for financing:

Type of Property Regional credit head National underwriting head

Self construction Properties

Upto 20% over approved area Above 20% of approved area

Resale Properties Upto 20% over approved area Above 20% of approved area

Developer Properties Upto 20% over approved area Above 20% of approved area

Cash-Down Disbursals to select developers: This type of disbursal would be applicable only to certain developers and projects that are approved by MD & Chief Risk Officer from time to time. The entire equity of the customer will have to come upfront in case of cash down disbursement. Where a certain amount is to be paid on possession, such amount would be held back by the Bank and disbursed to the developer on possession. Total disbursement under cash down cannot exceed 5% of the portfolio.

36 ANNEXURE 17 – INTERNAL DE DUPLICATION OVERRIDE GUIDELINES The internal De-duplication guidelines are aimed at establishing the following:

• Whether the borrower had at any time applied to PNBHFL for a loan and has been rejected.

• Whether PNBHFL has had an earlier exposure to the borrower. If there was an exposure, what was the quantum of earlier exposure

• The repayment track record of the earlier exposure Towards this end, the policy is designed as below:

A. If the borrower or coborrowers’ loan was earlier rejected by any of the PNBHFL branches, PNBHFL must review the earlier reason for decline and take that into consideration, before proceeding with the case. If the earlier case was declined due to fraud or misrepresentation of facts, the loan cannot be progressed ahead. Deviations to this to be approved by Hub Underwriting Head or above.

B. If the borrower or coborrowers’ have been disbursed a loan earlier and there is an existing exposure, while processing a new loan request, the combined exposures (old existing loan and the new loan request) must be taken into account. Accordingly the EMI of the earlier loan must be considered in other obligations, while doing the new loan. Secondly, from an exposure perspective, it must be ensured that the total exposure to the borrower, does not exceed the maximum loan to a customer stated in this policy. Deviations to this to be approved by Hub Underwriting Head or above.

C. If there is an existing loan exposure to the borrower, then the repayment track record of the same should be checked. There should be no delays in the payments. Following grid can be used to considered deviations in cases where there are delays or defaults in the repayment of the earlier loan.
