Extending credit or creating credit refers to one of the important functions of commercial banks that help in increasing money supply. For instance, a bank lends ₹ 5 lakh to an individual and opens a demand deposit in the name of that individual. Bank makes a credit entry of ₹5 lakh in that account. This leads to creation of demand deposits in that account. The point to be noted here is that there is no payment in cash. Thus, without printing additional money, the supply of money is increased.
