Summary: | The main aim of the study is to analyse the role of Nationalised Commercial Bank
(NCB) on economic growth and development in India during pre and post-reform periods
(Restrictive and liberalised regime). The study also aims to analyse the performances and
associations of nationalised commercial banks with the RBI in the same period. For this purpose,
the study first uses Augmented-Dickey Fuller unit root test. After assessing stationary conditions,
the study uses Engel-Granger Causality test and Trend line analysis. Based on the empirical
results, the study found that the role of NCB on economic growth is higher in the post-reform
period compared to the pre-reform period. But their role in poverty eradication and employment
generation is less in the post-reform period even though the average GDP growth rate is high in
the post-reform period. Similarly, the performances of NCBs are also declining due to the
increasing trend in their NPAs. The study also found that the monetary policy is not much effective
in India, especially after 2000 where fall in the interest rate failed to influence GDP. So the study
strongly recommended frequent interference and instructions of RBI to enhance the performances
of NCBs and the effectiveness of monetary policy to achieve macroeconomic goals. |
