Appeal No. 2005-2643 Reexamination Control No. 90/005,842 para. In the discussion (at 67-69) of inflation-indexed loans offered by various organizations, including the National Pensions Institute, insurance companies, banks, and the government, Mukherjee explains: Banks started to make indexed charges on loans when their indexed deposit business became of appreciable size. In the savings and cooperative bank sector this was in 1956. Similar charging arrangements by the commercial banks did not come into operation until rather more than a year after that. This part of the banking sector had interrupted this business for a year, and initially were able to cover indexed payments to depositors with income from their holdings of government indexed bonds. 16Page: Previous 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
