being paramount in the achievement of a stable and sustainable economic growth. Thus, the aim of this research was to
analyze the financial soundness of the public sector banks that operate in India. In order to achieve this, one of the most
popular methods for the analysis of the financial soundness of banks namely CAMEL model was used. The obtained results
highlight the strength and vulnerabilities of the analyzed banks underlying the need to strengthen the concerns of the
decision makers from banks to improve and increase their soundness. The study concluded that the Punjab National Bank’s
overall performance was very good followed by State Bank of India and the financial performance was very poor in case of
IDBI.

potential for silk development but yet unexploited, however, development is not far away. It is one of the major employment
generating sectors in the state and its growth has immense employment generation potential, particularly in rural Karnataka.
This studyis an attempt to analyze the agribusiness potential of sericulture in Karnataka. The study explored that there is a
huge improvement in area, production and also employment from 2008-09 to 2015-16. The cultivated area was only 177943
hectares in 2008-09, which has improved over the years and has reached 208947 hectares in 2015-16 with a compound annual
growth rate of 2 per cent. Similarly, the production in Karnataka was also increased from 5949MT in 2003-04 to 9645MT in
2014-15 with CAGR of 4 per cent. 27 per cent of the families of Karnataka are contributing to the total families engaged in
Indian sericulture industry. In the year 2014-15, earnings from export were about Rs.2829.94 crore but it was reduced to
Rs.2495.99 crore in the year 2015-16. The import earnings during the year 2015-16 was Rs.1389.10 crore. Hence, it is revealed
from the study that sericulture has a very high employment potential. It is the biggest employer in the country only next to
handloom industry. It is ideally suited to generate jobs in the rural areas and particularly in the drought prone areas.Sericulture
gains added importance in the context of growing unemployment, both disguised and seasonal. Most of the farmers in India
are poor and are not employed throughout the year. Sericulture can provide subsidiary employment to such farmers and
augment their incomes.
