What the file holds
Loans of primary agricultural credit societies and land development banks: borrowers and amounts, each year since 1977-78.
RBI DBIE report 255 (data provider DP0), read from the local Data Bank mirror, as published. One display unit kept (ACTUALS). Amounts in ₹ crore; counts as numbers; ratios in per cent, as each row's label says.
Revisions: Section 42 figures are provisional, then final; sectoral credit is provisional and revised the next month; NPAs and capital ratios are final on release. Seams disclosed, never joined: the 2019 sectoral classification, the July 2023 HDFC merger, the December 2025 reporting calendar.
Missing values are left empty, never zero. Every series with its latest value and trend, in the guide to bank credit and money.
