Working knowledge in MS Word, Excel, Powerpoint.
I have developed two softwares on Excel platform to process Personal Loan & SME/C&I Loans.
The Personal Loan software is an all-in-one tool to process two types of Personal Loans. With
keying in minimum data, the software produces all the papers/documents including Credit
Scoring and Terms & Conditions Letter.
The second software, popularly known as ABF-ACHARYA is a very useful tool for analyzing
Profit & Loss Statement, Balance Sheet with provision for analyzing data for the past 3 years
and future two years. It also compiles Funds Flow Statement, Holding Level of stocks,
receivables, etc. It helps in calculating DSCR, Break Even level, CVP analysis and a number of
important Ratios. Above all, it rates the Unit depending on the financial / non-financial
parameters as per the internal Credit Rating System of the Bank. The software is widely used
not only in the branches of SBI, but also in the associates of SBI and foreign offices of SBI.
The modified version of the software based on the revised instructions of the bank was
released in April 2010 by Ms. Arundhati Bhattacharya, present Chairman of State Bank of India
who was then Chief General Manager of Bangalore Circle of the bank.
