The question given below consists of a statement, followed by three arguments I, II and III. You have to decide which of the arguments is/are ‘strong’ arguments is/are ‘weak’ arguments and accordingly choose your answer from the alternatives given below each question. Statement: India's burgeoning shadow finance sector is likely to face a shake-up after defaults at one major lender battered the nation's financial markets in the past week and reinforced worries about credit risk. Industry officials and experts say they expect Indian regulators to cancel the licences of as many as 1,500 smaller non-banking finance companies because they don't have adequate capital, and to also make it more difficult for new applicants to get approval. Which of the following argument(s) stated support(s) the given fact? Arguments: I. Better capitalised and more conservatively run finance firms are likely to swallow up an increasing number of smaller rivals. That could make it difficult for many small borrowers to get loans, especially in the countryside where two-thirds of India's 1.3 billion people live and put the brakes on a surge in private consumption with a knock-on effect on growth.  II. The shadow banking sector now comprises more than 11,400 firms with a combined balance-sheet worth 22.1 trillion rupees ($304 billion) and is less strictly regulated than banks. It has been attracting new investors, particularly as the nation's banks have had to slow their lending as they seek to work through $150 billion of stressed assets.  III. Nearly 11,000 of India's NBFCs are small and medium-sized businesses with an asset base of less than 5 billion rupees. But the top 400, many of which are backed by banks and finance companies, control about 90 percent of the assets under management.
In the question below, are given a statement followed by three courses of actions numbered I, II and III. On the basis of the information given, you have to assume everything in the statement to be true, and then decide which of the following suggested courses of actions logically follow(s) for pursuing. Statement: Top lenders to power projects including State Bank of India, Punjab National Bank, Power Finance Corp and others have agreed to decide the fate of a dozen stressed assets totaling about 13,000 MW by October 10. At a meeting between lenders and top government officials late on Thursday, large lenders explained risks of moving power projects to insolvency court to disagreeing banks, most of which have smaller exposures, and sought to arrive upon a decision before the set deadline. Courses of action: I. Lenders were informed about rising electricity demand and measures being proposed by the high level empowered committee that is working to address issues related to fuel, discom payment delays and regulatory approvals.  II. Banks with lesser exposure to stressed assets in power sector have been asked to come together and decide either to agree with the resolution plan or refer the projects to bankruptcy court rather than dilly-dallying. III. However, if the resolution plans are decided, it can create a favorable ground before the court to salvage at least some of these good operational assets from insolvency proceedings.
