The commercial bank do not perform one function out of the following

  • A.Mobilisation of saving
  • B.Giving loans and advances
  • C.Issues currency notes
  • D.Financing priority sectors

Answer: C

Correct answer: Issues currency notes

Issuing currency notes is a central bank function, not a commercial bank one. In India the Reserve Bank has the sole right to issue notes other than the one-rupee note, which the Government issues; commercial banks distribute currency but do not create it.

The other three are ordinary commercial banking functions: mobilising savings by accepting deposits, lending them out as loans and advances, and directing a prescribed share of credit to priority sectors such as agriculture, micro and small enterprise and weaker sections.
