proper sequence to form a meaningful paragraph and then answer the questions
given below.

path-breaking. The licences would be available for the asking or tap – provided

decades, and worse, with the number of licences granted in the low single
digits.

(B) Experienced
bankers and non-banking financial companies can now apply for banking licence,
but not corporate houses, to avoid conflict of interest, as per the
precautionary principle, who can, nonetheless, own a stake up to 10% in a
banking venture.

(C) But banking
in India is highly fragmented, with some 30 banking units contributing almost
half of deposits and 60% of advances.
