INTRODUCTION
Finance plays an important role in economy. As banks, credit unions, and other financial institutions provide credit, they help expand the economy by directing funds from savers to borrowers. For example, a bank acquires large amounts of money from the deposits of individual savers. The bank does not let this money sit idle but instead provides loans to borrowers who might then buy a house / car or expand a business. The savings of millions of people percolate through many financial institutions, spurring economic growth. Thus the modem economic activities of any country cannot be imagined without money capital. every country has its own
monetary and financial institutions, which restates the circulation of money and provide financial'" assistance of money and provide financial assistance to all economic activities. A wide variety of financial institutions have

changed customer perception and consciousness, a lot of cars have come into being in our country in every segment: be it compact segment, mid segment or multi utility etc. Below is given the different segments in which different cars fall.

This has adversely affected the technological upgradation of the domestic car
manufacturers. But with the opening up of the economy, several global automobile companies did set up their plants and started production, Estimates show that between 200203 is considered as the peak year of industrial growth in the current decade, the car sales have gone up by 19%. Since then, the economy slumped into recession and the auto industry too slowed down. But during the year 2005-06, the Combined Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) stands at 17.6%.

CAR FINANCING
WHY...? Before the availability of car financing scheme a person have to wait for the acquisition of car until he had saved money sufficient to buy car. In other words even an officer of a car or government would not be able to buy a car until he was in his late 40's. His priority would have been to save money for the education of his children and then to buy a house or an apartment. The car would have been the last priority. However with attractive loan financing schemes for Children Education, Housing
Finance and last but not the least the Car Financing Schemes, a person can acquire a house as well as a car once he gainfully employed and -at the same time he can fund his children to schools and colleges by financing their, through educational loans.
It is therefore evident that the financing schemes have created whole new industries and have been advancing the cause of Industrialization of the country. The creation of jobs, small trade opportunities and new lifestyles are some of the benefits of these financing schemes. One can see various models of new car and motorbikes in almost every Indian cities road. This would have not been possible without the car financing
schemes. In order to support these industries, the government has, also provided various tax breaks such as allowing interest paid on these loans as tax - deductible payments MAJOR CAR FINANCERS IN Meerut BANKS Bank SB of Hyderabad SBI PNB Canara m Bajaj Auto Finance Finance Sundara NBFCs Tata

CAR LOANS
LOANS
Meaning of Loan:-
An arrangement in which a lender gives money or property to a borrower and the borrower agrees to return the property or repay the money, usually along with interest at some future point (s) in time.
LOAN SYSTEM
Under the loan system, credit is given for a given purpose and for a predetermined period. Normally, these loans are repayable in installments. Funds are required for single non - repetitive transactions and are withdrawn only once. If the borrower needs funds again or wants renewal of an existing loan, a fresh request is made to the bank. Thus a borrower is required to negotiate every time he is taking a new loan or renewing an existing loan. Banker is at liberty to grant or refuse such a request depending upon his own cash resources and the credit policy of the central bank.
1) Financial Discipline on the Borrower:- As the time of repayment of the loan or its installments is fixed in advance, this system ensures a greater degree of self discipline on the borrower as compared to the cash credit system. 2) Periodic Review of Loan Account:- Whenever any loan is granted or its renewal is sanctioned, the banker gets an opportunity of automatically reviewing the loan account. Unsatisfactory loan account may be
discontinued at the discretion of the banker. 3) Profitability: - The system is comparatively simple, Interest accrues to the bank on the entire amount lent to a customer.
1) Inflexibility every time a loan is required; it is to be negotiated with the banker. To avoid it, borrowers may borrow in excess of their exact requirement to provide for any contingency.
2) Banks have no control over the use of funds borrowed by the customer. However, banks insist on
3) Though the loans are for fixed periods, but in practice they roll over, i.e., they are renewed frequently.
TYPES OF LOAN
The various types of loans are as follows: 1. SHORT - TERM LOANS: - Short terms loans are usually granted to meet the working capital needs of the borrowers. Usually one year or less, often used to refer to bonds or shorterm loans. 2. MEDIUM - TERM LOANS :- Medium terms loans repayable over a period, ranging from one year to seven years, are granted for the purchase of durable goods like tractors ai1d vehicles, equipments for professionals and other tools and machinery, etc. 3. LONG - TERM LOANS:- Long terms loans, are generally called "term loans", are extended by banks, and other tenn lending institutions for meeting the requirements of capital investment in industry or agriculture. 4. COMPOSITE - LOAN: - When a loan is granted both for buying equipments and for working capital purposes specially in case of small borrowers it is called composite loan.
5.
SECURED WANS:- A loan, which is backed by assets belonging to the borrower in order to decrease the risk assumed by the lender. The assets may be forfeited to the lender if the borrower fails to make necessary payments.
6.
UNSECURED
WANS:
Unsecured
loans
or
advance means a loan or advance not so secured. Unsecured. loans are also known as clean advances and are obviously granted to parties enjoying high
reputations and sound financial position. 7. DEMAND LOAN: - A loan which is repayable on demand (i.e. without prior notice), rather than on a specific date. PRINCIPLES OF SOUND LENDING There are 5 cardinal principles of bank lending that has been followed by the commercial banks since long. These are the principles of Safety Liquidity
Central government & Reserve Bank have issued number of directions in this regard, highlighting, the social purpose, which they have to subserve 1) SAFETY: - As the bank lends the funds entrusted to it by the depositors, the first and foremost principle of lending is to ensure safety of the funds lent. By safety is meant that the borrower position to repay the loan, along with interest, according to the contract. The repayment of the loan depends upon the borrower's (1) capacity to pay, and (2) willingness to pay. The former depends upon his tangible assets and the success of his business; if he is successful in his efforts, he earns profit and can repay the loan promptly. Otherwise, the loan is recovered out of the sale proceeds of his tangible assets. The willingness to pay depends upon the honesty and character of the borrower. The banker should, therefore, take utmost care in ensuring that the
enterprise or business for which a loan is sought is a sound one and the borrower is capable of carrying it out successfully. He should be a person of integrity, good character and reputation. 2) LIQUIDITY:Banks are essentially
intermediates for short-term funds. Therefore, they lends funds for short periods and mainly for working capital purposes. The loans are, therefore largely payable on demand. The banker must ensure that the borrower is able to repay the loan on demand or within a short period. This depends upon the nature of assets owned by the borrower and pledged to the banker. For example, goods and commodities are easily marketable while fixed assets like land buildings and specialize types of plants and equipments can be liquidated after a time interval. Thus, the banker regards liquidity as important as safety of the funds and grants loans on the security of the assets, which are easily marketable without much loss.
3)
banks
are
nationalized
banks are no exception to this. They must employ their funds profitably so as to earn sufficient income. The sound principle of lending is not to sacrifice safety or liquidity for the sake of higher profitability. That is to say that the banks should not grant advances to unsound parties with doubtful repaying capacities, even if they are ready to. pay a very high rate of interest. Such advances ultimately prove to be irrecoverable to the detriment of the interest f the bank and its depositors. 4) PURPOSE OF THE LOAN:- while lending his funds, banker requires of the purposes for which he seeks the loan. Banks do not grant loan for each and every purpose - they ensure the safety and liquidity of their funds by granting loans for productive purposes only. Loans are not advanced for speculative and unproductive purposes 'like social functions and
ceremonies or for pleasure trips or for the repayments of a prior loan. 5) PRINCIPLE OF DIVERSIFICATION OF RISKS: - This is also a cardinal principal of sound lending. The banker should not grant advances to a few big firms only or to concentrate them in a few industries or in a few cities or regions of the country only. The advances, on the other hand, should be over a reasonably wide area, distributed amongst a good number of customers belonging to different trades and industries. The banker thus diversifies the risk involved in lending. If a big customer meets misfortune, or certain trades or
industries are affected adversely, overall position of the bank will not be in jeopardy.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research Methodology is a way to systematically solve the research problem. It may be understood as a science of studying how research is done scientifically. In it we study the various steps that are generally adopted by researcher in studying his research problem along with logic behind them. It is necessary for the researcher to know not only the research methods/techniques but also the methodology. Researchers also need to understand the assumptions underlying various techniques and they need to know the criteria by which the can decide that certain techniques and procedures will be applicable to certain problems and other will not. We use a particular method of research in the context of our research study and explain why we are using a particular method or technique and why we are not using other so that research results are capable o being evaluated either by the researcher himself or by others.
Research : Research is a scientific and systematic search for pertinent information on a specific topic. According to Clifford Woody research comprises defining and redefining problems, formulating hypothesis or suggested solutions; collecting, organizing and evaluating data, making
deductions and reaching conclusions; and at last carefully testing the conclusions to determine whether they fit the formulating hypothesis. Research Design: A research design is purely and simply the
framework or plan for study that guides the collection and analysis of data. Application and specification are the main characteristics in a research designs can be classified on the basis of the fundamental objectives of the research. design. a. Exploratory b. Conclusive 1. Descriptive There are mainly two types of research
2. Experimental Since our research is descriptive type, so research design is also descriptive. Sampling Design : Sampling is a process of obtaining information about an entire population by examining only a part of it. Sampling is used for a variety of reasons such as: i. ii. Sampling can save time and money. Sampling may enable more accurate
measurements. iii. Sampling remains the only way when populations contain infinitely many members. iv. Sampling only remains the only choice when a test involves the destruction of the item under study. Sampling methods can be divided into two. 1. Probability Sampling 2. Non-probability Sampling In my research probability sampling is used. Again in probability sampling, simple random sampling is used. This sampling is stratified system.
Data Collection Method: Data collection methods are generally of two types: a. Primary Data b. Secondary Data Primary data are those which are collected a fresh and for the first time and thus happens to be original in character. The primary data is collected in the process of questionnaire and interview of the outlets. Secondary data are those which have already been collected by someone else and which have been already been passed through the statistical process. In my research the secondary data is collected from the company sales records and from research reports.
Tools and Techniques: Primary Data : Questionnaire and Personal Interview. Secondary Data : Company sales record and other Research reports.
. Sampling Plan: Target Population Or Universe : All the resident of Meerut City. Sampling Unit : Any Insurance policy of who works with any
