Concept of leasing
◦Leasing is an contract between two parties. The leasing

company called lessor &the user called lessee. The former
arranges to buy capital equipment for the use of the later
for an agreed period of time in return for the payment
called rent. The rent is predetermined & payable at fixed
intervals of time
Leasing Industry in India
▪Leasing industry in India is of recent origin. It was pioneered in 1973 when for the first time
‘Leasing Company of India’ was set up in Madras. For almost seven years in the country, this
company was the sole leasing company. In 1980 another leasing company known as “20th
Century Leasing” came into existence. Both these leasing companies were promoted by
management — qualified professionals from city bank.
▪At present, there are about 300 leasing companies in the country. Apart from these, many
companies engaged in other businesses are also leasing out mainly to employ their investible
surplus in tax-benefit. Over the period 1980-88, gross leased assets of these companies
expanded by Rs.700
▪crores indicating the extent to which leasing companies have played significant role in asset
formation. This is a basic fact that requires recognition and encouragement by the government.
It is most intriguing to note that the leasing industry is being singled out for discriminatory
practices.
• Leasing is coming of age in India, as is evidenced by phenomenal growth of leasing industry by over 100 per
cent in recent few years. Against only Rs. 3000 crore of lease deals done during 1993-94, the buzz in the
leasing industry puts leasing volume in 1994-95 at close to Rs. 7000 crores.
• A large part of this unprecedented growth was contributed by the Public Sector Units (PSUs). For instance,
the IDBI single handedly did a Rs. 50 crores lease deal for the Shipping Corporation of India for financing the
acquisition of a single ship.
• SBI capital markets syndicated a Rs. 240 crore lease deal for Mangalore Refinery and Petrochemical Ltd.
Similarly, Infrastructural Leasing and Financial Services Ltd. syndicated a Rs. 200 crore lease deal for
Maharashtra State Electricity Board (MSEB).
• KDTK Mahindra Finance Ltd. has structured Rs. 300 crore transmission and distribution equipment’s lease
deal for MSEB.
• IDBI Sanctioned Lease finance to the tune of Rs. 1007 crore in 1997-98 which was more than what was
provided during 1994-95. The institution is looking at financing leasing of small aircraft for spraying
pesticides and ferrying executives and large allocation for shipping. Telecom and the power sector.
• A syndicate of leasing companies provided Rs. 250 crore lease finance to the Rajasthan State Electricity
Board.
