much the larger part of the increase in credit to GDP ratio has occurred in
long-term disbursements, and more so in outstandings, because of staggered
repayment schedules. Again, because the commercial banks took a back seat
in the 1990s, the sharpest fall in the ratio has occurred in long-term farm
credit outstandings (Table 8.3).
Official series for the 1990s and thereafter
We have discussed the profiles of fresh data disseminated by NABARD
in coordination with RBI for the 1990s and thereafter, the relevant data are
presented in Table 8.4 (original series) along with the ratios displaying the
relationship between credit and real sector indicators.
The fresh credit flow data so worked out are thus related to four demand-
side indicators: gross value of gross output; sectoral GDP; inputs; and gross
capital formation. These data confirm that after 2000-01 or thereabout, there
