The study attempts to look into the status of financial literacy in the unorganized sector of Purba Medinipur district of West Bengal. The focus is to identify any degree of association between the different variables that represent demographic factors and the level of financial literacy. For having a heterogeneous sample representing different parts of the district, multistage sampling method has been applied. First, five blocks of Purba Medinipur district have been chosen, following which one village has been chosen from each of them. Then, ten respondents from each village have been interviewed with the help of a questionnaire. Fisher's Exact Test is used to examine the significance of the association between the two kinds of classification as the sample sizes are small.Keywords

This empirical study is an effort to the existing field of effect of capital structure decisions on firm value. The investigation is made on eleven power companies selected from the ‘BSE Power’ from Capitaline database for the period 2007-2015. The firm value is proxied by Tobin’s Q and the Enterprise value to profit before interest, depreciation and taxes ratio. The leverage is measured using debt-equity ratio. Panel data regression model is employed for analysis which supports the view that there is a negative influence of financial leverage on firm value (measured using Tobin’s Q). However, the other measure is not significantly impacted by the extent of debt in the capital structure.Keywords

The present empirical study looks at the role of primary agricultural credit societies (PACS) towards empowerment of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. The investigation based on data from 2012-13 to 2017-18 on selected regions reveals the poor role of PACS. The result on aspects like number of PACS, growth in membership and borrowers, rise in the membership and borrowers from the SC and ST community shows the passive role of PACS. During the study period, there is a decline in performance in majority of the regions. However, there is a growth in respect of average borrowings per head. The overall findings show a lot more can be done by these institutions.Keywords
