and also to manage the operations of the unit efficiently. Towards
this end, IDBI may stipulate conditions relating to broad-basing
of the Board, appointment of senior technical/financial executives,
professionalisation of the management and constitution of such
committees as may be considered necessary. |
|
| Working
Capital Requirements |
Since the success of the project would
crucially depend upon the availability for adequate working
capital to achieve the full benefit of the modernisation programme,
IDBI would like to be assured that the units have made adequate
arrangements with their bankers for meeting working capital
requirements at reasonable rates of interest. |
|
| Role
Of Nodal Agency |
- Receipt
of application;
- Processing
and sanctioning of loan assistance;
- Attending
to disbursement and other matters;
- Setting
up of a separate cell for TUFS; and
- Furnishing
information to Textile Commissioner periodically.
In view of
likely expectation of large inflow of applications and the volume
of assistance, it is proposed that other All India Financial
Institutions viz., ICICI, IFCI and IIBI and some select banks
will also receive applications and sanction and disburse assistance
to the borrowers as per the YUFS norms. IDBI, being the nodal
agency, will co-ordinate with other institutions. However, the
lead bank will co-ordinate in respect of other banks and furnish
the information to the Textile Commissioner direct. |
|
| General |
Applications for assistance under the
TUFS from non-SSI undertakings may be submitted in the prescribed
form available from IDBI/ICICI/IFCI/IIBI. The applications duly
completed (5 copies) may be submitted to any one of the four
institutions either at their Head Offices or Zonal/Branch Offices.
Every effort will be made to process applications and sanction
assistance applied for as expeditiously as possible. As a general
rule, IDBI endeavours to sanction assistance sought for within
2 months from the date of receipt of complete information. |
