Chapter I: Introduction to the Topic

About the Banking Sector:

Banking in India in the modern sense originated in the last decades of the 18th
century. The first banks were Bank of Hindustan (1770-1829) and The General Bank
of India, established 1786 and since defunct.

The largest bank, and the oldest still in existence, is the State Bank of India, which
originated in the Bank of Calcutta in June 1806, which almost immediately became
the Bank of Bengal. This was one of the three presidency banks, the other two being
the Bank of Bombay and the Bank of Madras, all three of which were established
under charters from the British East India Company. The three banks merged in 1921
to form the Imperial Bank of India, which, upon India's independence, became the
State Bank of India in 1955. For many years, the presidency banks acted as quasi-
central banks, as did their successors, until the Reserve Bank of India was established
in 1935.

In 1969 the Indian government nationalised all the major banks that it did not already
own and these have remained under government ownership. They are run under a
structure known as 'profit-making public sector undertaking' (PSU) and are allowed to
compete and operate as commercial banks. The Indian banking sector is made up of
four types of banks, as well as the PSUs and the state banks; they have been joined
since the 1990s by new private commercial banks and a number of foreign banks.

What is Bank?
According to the Oxford dictionary Bank can be defined as,
An establishment for the custody of money, which it pays out, on a
customers order. Banking Company in India has been defined in the Banking
Companies Act 1949 as, One which transacts the business of banking which means
the accepting, for the purpose of lending or investment of the deposits of money from
the public, repayable on demand, or otherwise and withdraw able be cheque, draft,
order or otherwise.

The banking system is an integral subsystem of the financial system. It represents an


important channel of collecting small savings form the households and lending it to
the corporate sector.

The Indian banking system has Reserve Bank of India (RBI) as the apex body for all
matters relating to the banking system. It is the Central Bank of India. It is also
known as the Banker to All Other Banks.

Chapter II: HISTORY OF BANKING IN INDIA


There are three different phases in the history of banking in India.
1) Pre-Nationalization Era.
2) Nationalization Stage.
3) Post Liberalization Era.

1) Pre-Nationalization Era:
In India, the business of banking and credit was practices even in very early
times. The remittance of money through Hundies, an indigenous credit instrument,
was very popular. The hundies were issued by bankers known as Shroffs, Sahukars,
Shahus or Mahajans in different parts of the country. The modern type of
banking, however, was developed by the Agency Houses of Calcutta. During the
early part of the 19th Century, volume of foreign trade was relatively small. Later on,
as the trade expanded, the need for banks of the European type was felt and the
government of the East India Company took interest in having its own bank. The
government of Bengal took the initiative and the first presidency bank, the Bank of
Calcutta (Bank of Bengal) was established in 1840. In 1840, the Bank of Bombay
and IN 1843, the Bank of Madras was also set up.
These three banks also known as Presidency Bank. The Presidency Banks had their
branches in important trading centers but mostly lacked in uniformity in their
operational policies. In 1899, the Government proposed to amalgamate these three
banks in to one so that it could also function as a Central Bank. However, the
conditions obtaining during world war period (1914-1918) emphasized the need for a
unified banking institution, as a result of which the Imperial Bank was set up in1921.
The RBI (Reserve Bank of India) was established in 1935 as the Central Bank of the
Country. In 1949, the Banking Regulation act was passed and the RBI was
nationalized and acquired extensive regulatory powers over the commercial banks. In
1950, the Indian Banking system comprised of the RBI, the Imperial Bank of India,
Cooperative banks, Exchange banks and Indian Joint Stock banks.

2) Nationalization Stages:
Nationalization of banks paved way for retail banking and as a result there has
been an alt round growth in the branch network, the deposit mobilization After
Independence, in 1951, the All India Rural Credit survey, committee of Direction with
Shri. A. D. Gorwala as Chairman recommended amalgamation of the Imperial Bank
of India and ten others banks into a newly established bank called the State Bank of
India (SBI). The Government of India accepted the recommendations of the
committee and introduced the State Bank of India bill in the Lok Sabha on 16th April
1955 and it was passed by Parliament and got the presidents assent on 8th May 1955.

In 1959, the SBI (Subsidiary Bank) act was proposed and the following eight state-
associated banks were taken over by the SBI as its subsidiaries.

Name of the Bank Subsidiary with effect from


1. State Bank of Hyderabad 1st October 1959
2. State Bank of Bikaner 1st January 1960
3. State Bank of Jaipur 1st January 1960
4. State Bank of Saurashtra 1st May 1960
5. State Bank of Patiala 1st April 1960
6. State Bank of Mysore 1st March 1960
7. State Bank of Indore 1st January 1968
8. State Bank of Travancore 1st January 1960

With effect from 1st January 1963, the State Bank of Bikaner and State Bank of
Jaipur with head office located at Jaipur. Thus, seven subsidiary banks State Bank of
India formed the SBI Group.
On 19th July 1969, then the Prime Minister, Mrs. Indira Gandhi announced the
nationalization of 14 major scheduled Commercial Banks each having deposits worth
Rs. 50 crore and above.
Later the Government Nationalized six more commercial private
sector banks with deposit liability of not less than Rs. 200 crores on 15th April 1980,
viz.
Andhra Bank.
Corporation Bank.
New Bank of India.
Oriental Bank of Commerce.
Punjab and Sind Bank.
Vijaya Bank.

In 1969, the Lead Bank Scheme was introduced to extend banking facilities to every
corner of the country. Later in 1975, Regional Rural Banks were set up to supplement
the activities of the commercial banks and to especially meet the credit needs and of
course employment.
The first year after nationalization witnessed the total growth in the agricultural loans
and the loans made to SSI by 87% and 48% respectively. The overall growth in the
deposits and the advances indicates the improvement that has taken place in the
banking habits of the people in the rural and semi-urban areas where the branch
network has spread.
Consequences of Nationalization:
The quality of credit assets fell because of liberal credit extension policy.
Political interference has been as additional malady.
Poor appraisal involved during the loan meals conducted for credit disbursals.
The credit facilities extended to the priority sector at concessional rates.

3) Post-Liberalization Era---Thrust on Quality and Profitability:


By the beginning of 1990, the social banking goals set for the banking
industry made most of the public sector resulted in the presumption that there was no
need to look at the fundamental financial strength of this bank. Revamping this
structure of the banking industry was of extreme importance, as the health of the
financial sector in particular and the economy was a whole would be reflected by its
performance.
The need for restructuring the banking industry was felt greater with
the initiation of the real sector reform process in 1992. the reforms have enhanced the
opportunities and challenges for the real sector making them operate in a borderless
global market place. The route causes for the lackluster performance of banks,
formed the elements of the banking sector reforms. Some of the factors that led to the
dismal performance of banks were.
Regulated interest rate structure.
Lack of focus on profitability.
Lack of transparency in the banks balance sheet.
Lack of competition.
Excessive regulation on organization structure and managerial resource.
Excessive support from government.

Against this background, the financial sector reforms were initiated to bring
about a paradigm shift in the banking industry, by addressing the factors for its dismal
performance.
In this context, the recommendations made by a high level committee
on financial sector, chaired by M. Narasimham, laid the foundation for the banking
sector reforms. The Narasimham Committee suggested that there should be functional
autonomy, flexibility in operations, dilution of banking strangulations, reduction in
reserve requirements and adequate financial infrastructure in terms of supervision,
audit and technology.

Chapter III: EVOLUTION OF INDIAN BANKING


Ancient banking system of India constituted of indigenous bankers. They have been
carrying on their age-old banking operations in different parts of the country under
different names. The modern age of banking constitutes the fundamental basis of
economic growth. The term Bank is being used since long time but there is no clear
conception regarding its beginning. According to the viewpoint, in good old days.
Italian money leaders were known asBanchi because they kept a special type of
table to transact their business.

3.1: IMPORTANCE OF BANKS


Today banks have become a part and parcel of Kotak Bank's life. There was a time
when dwellers of the city alone could enjoy their services. Now banks offer access to
even a common man and their activities extend to areas hitherto untouched. Banks
cater to the needs of agriculturalists, industrialists, traders and to all the other sections
of the society. In modern age, the banking constitutes the fundamental basis of
economic growth. Thus, they accelerate the economic growth of a country and steer
the wheels of the economy towards its goals of self-reliance in all fields. It naturally
arouses Kotak Bank's interest in knowing more about the Bank and the various men
and the activities connected with it.

3.2: INDIAN BANKING SYSTEM


"The success of the economic reforms is therefore all to see and the driving force of
these reforms is the banking sector".

Union Finance Minister P. Chidambaram strongly believes that the country's banking
sector has been one of the driving forces in the process of economic reforms.
Banking system occupies an important place a nation's economy. A banking
institution is indispensable in a modern society. In plays a pivotal role in the
economic development of a country.
Thus, economic development of a country depends upon success of banking industry
and success of banking Industry is determined to a large extent by now well then
needs of its customers have been understood and satisfied.

PUBLIC SECTOR BANKS:

Nationalised banks or public banks dominate banking System in India. The


nationalisation of banks in India took place in 1969 by Mrs. Indira Gandhi the then
prime minister. The major objective behind nationalisation was to spread banking
infrastructure in rural areas and make available cheap finance to Indian farmers.
Before 1969, State Bank of India (SBI) was the only public sector bank in India.
Despite the entry of many new domestic and foreign private banks since
liberalization, public sector banks continue to dominate the commercial banking
industry.

PRIVATE SECTOR BANKS:

Private sector banking in India received a flip in 1994 when Reserve Bank of India
encouraged setting up of private banks as part of its policy of liberalisation of the
Indian Banking Industry. Housing Development Finance Corporation Limited
(HDFC) was amongst the first to receive an 'in principle' approval from the Reserve
Bank of India (RBI) to set up a bank in the private sector. Private Banks have played
a major role in the development of Indian banking industry. They have made banking
more efficient and customer friendly. In the process they have jolted public sector
banks out of complacency and forced them to become more competitive. India has a
better banking system in place of other developing countries.

CO-OPERATIVE BANKS:

These are those banks that are jointly run by a group of individuals. Each individual
has an equal share in these banks. Its shareholders manage the affairs of the bank.

According to Function:

o COMMERCIAL BANKS:
These are the banks that do banking business to earn profit. These banks make loans
for short to business and in the process create money. Credit creation is the main
function of these banks.

o FOREIGN BANKS:
These are those banks that are incorporated by foreign company. They have set up
their branches in India. These banks have their head offices in foreign countries. Their
principle function is to make credit arrangement or the export and the import of the

country and these banks deals in foreign exchange.

INDUSTRIAL BANKS:
Industrial banks are those banks that offer long term and medium term loan to the
industries and also work for their development. These banks help industries in sale of
their shares, debentures and bonds. They give loan to the industries for the purchase
of land and machinery.

AGRICULTURAL BANKS:
Agricultural banks are those banks that give credit to agricultural sector of the
economy.

SAVING BANKS:
The principle function of these banks is to collect small savings across the country
and put them to the productive use. In India department of post office functions a
savings banks.

CENTRAL BANK:

notes and acts a banker's bank. Economic stability is the principle function of this
bank. In short, it regulates and controls the banking system of the country. RBI is the
Central Bank of India.

Chapter V: STRUCTURE OF BANKING SYSTEM

Different countries of the world have different types of banking systems. However,
commercial banking had grown under all these banking systems. To understand the
structure of banking system, let us take up various types of banking systems one by
one. These types are:

Rizvi Institute of Management Studies and Research


10
A Comparative Study of Nationalized and Private Bank Product Nabeel Shaikh

(1) UNIT BANKING:


Unit Banking originated in the United State of America. It grew in the United States
of America.

An independent unit bank is a corporation that operates one office and that is not
related to other banks through either ownership or control.

(2) BRANCH BANKING:

This the most popular and important banking system. In branch banking, a bank has a
large network of branches scattered all over the country. Branch banking developed in
England. Subsequently most of the countries of the world adopted the system. In
terms of branches, the State Bank of India has emerged as one of the largest banks in
the world. Under the system branches can operate without keeping large idle cash
reserves. Branch Banking tends to bring
homogeneity in the prevailing Interest Rates. The choice of securities and investments
is larger.
With the growth of large scale business it is no wonder that the trend is almost every
country towards the branch banking i.e. big banks with a network of branches all over
the country. The Bank of America has now more than 500 branches in the state of
California itself.

(3) CHAIN BANKING:

Under the system there is pooling of resources. Chain banking overcomes certain
limitations of unit banking. But the system suffers from certain limitations of its own.
There may be a lack of co-ordination, proper control etc. The system is inflexible.

(4) GROUP BANKING:

It is similar to Chain Banking, the difference being that under Group Banking two or
more banks are brought under the control of the same management through a Holding
Company. Both the systems aim at gaining the advantages of large scale operations.
The banks are able to pool their resources in case of emergency or when large amount
of cash is required to meet the loan requirements of the customer.

(5) CORRESPONDENT BANKING:

Under Correspondent banking, small banks serving local communities hold deposits
with joint banks serving in big cities. This kind of banking is prevalent in U.S.A. The
correspondent banks perform two important services of outstation cheque clearing
and loan participation for the respondent banks while they benefit for the deposit
funds of respondent banks.

Chapter VI: Function of a bank

Rizvi Institute of Management Studies and Research


12
A Comparative Study of Nationalized and Private Bank Product Nabeel Shaikh

PRIMARY FUNCTIONS:

1) Accepting of Deposits: A bank accepts deposits from the public. People can
deposit their cash balances in either of the following accounts to their convenience:-

Fixed or Time Deposit Account: Cash is deposited in this account for a fixed period.
The depositor gets receipts for the amount deposited. It is called Fixed Deposit
Receipt. The receipt indicates the name of the depositor, amount of deposit, rate of
interest and the period of deposit. This receipt is not transferable. If the depositor
stands in need of the amount before the expiry of fixed period, he can withdraw the
same after paying the discount to the bank.

i) Savings Account: This type of deposit suits to those who just want to keep
their small savings in a bank and might need to withdraw them occasionally. Banks
provide a certain rate of interest on the minimum balance kept by the depositor during
the month.

ii) Current Account: This type of account is kept by the businessman who are
required to withdraw money every new and then. Banks do not pay any interest on
this account. Any sum or any number of withdrawals can be presented by such an
account holder.

2) Advancing of Loans: The bank advances money in any one of the following
ways.

i) Overdraft Facilities: Customers of good trading are allowed to overdraw from


their current account. But they have to pay interest on extra amount they have
withdrawn. Overdrafts are allowed to provide temporary accommodation since the
extra amount withdrawn is payable within a short period.

ii) Money at Call: It is the money lent for a very short period varying from 1 to 14
days. Such advances are usually made to other banks and financial institutions only.
Money at call ensures liquidity. In the Interbank market it enables bank to make
adjustment according to their liquidity requirements.

iii) Loans: Loans are granted by the banks on securities which can be easily
disposed of in the market. When the bank has satisfied itself regarding the soundness
of the party, a loan is advanced.

iv) Cash Credit: The Debtor is allowed to withdraw a certain amount on a given
security. The debtor withdraws the amount within this limit, interest is charged by the
Rizvi Institute of Management Studies and Research
13
A Comparative Study of Nationalized and Private Bank Product Nabeel Shaikh

bank on the amount actually withdrawn.

v) Discounting bill of exchange: It is another method of making advances by


the banks. Under this method, bank give advance to their clients on the basis of their
bills of exchange before the maturity of such bills.

Investment in Government Securities: Purchasing of government securities by the


banks tantamount to advancing loans by them to the Government. Banks prefer to buy
government securities as these are considered to be the safest investment. For
example : Indira Vikas Patra : It enables the banks to meet requirement of statutory
liquidity ratio (SLR)

3) Credit Creation: One of the main functions of banks these days is to create
credit. Banks create credit by giving more loans than their cash reserves. Banks are
able to create credit because the demand deposits i.e. a claim against the bank is
accepted by the public in settlement of their debts. In this process the bank creates
money. For this reason Prof. Sayers has called bank the manufactures of money.

4) Cheque system of Payment of Funds: A cheque, a negotiable instrument,


which in fact is a bill of exchange, drawn upon a banker, is the most popular credit
instrument used by the client to make payments. Cheque system is the main credit
instrument in the banking world. Although a cheque is not a legal tender money, they
serves as a medium of exchange in a limited way as it is a negotiable instrument.

SECONDARY FUNCTIONS:

Besides the above primary functions, banks also perform many secondary functions
such as agency functions, general utility and social functions.

A) Agency Function:
Banks act as agents to their customers in different ways:-

i) Collection and Payment of Credit and Other Instruments: The


Commercial banks collect and pay cheques, bills of exchange, promissory notes,
hundies, rent, interest etc. On behalf of their customers and also make payments of
income tax, fees, insurance premium etc. on behalf of the customers

ii) Purchase and Sale of Securities: The modern commercial banks also
undertake the purchase and sale of various securities like shares, stocks, bonds units
and debentures etc. On behalf of the customers, banks do not give any advice
regarding the suitability or otherwise of a security but simply perform the functions of
a broker.

iii) Trustee and Executor: Banks also acts as trustees and executors of the
property of their customers on their advice. Sometimes banks also undertake income
tax services on behalf of the customers.

iv) Remittance of Funds : The Commercial banks remit funds on behalf of


clients from one place to another through cheques, drafts, mail transfers etc.

v) Representation and Correspondence : Sometimes commercial banks acts


as representatives or correspondents of the clients especially in handling various
applications. For instance, passports and travel tickets, booking of vehicles, plots etc.

vi) Billion Trading : In many countries, the commercial banks trade is billions
like gold and silver. In Oct 1997, 8 banks including SBI, IOB, Canara Bank and
Allahabad Bank have been allowed import of gold which has been put under open
general licensed category.

vii) Purchase and Sale of Foreign Exchange: Banks buy and sell foreign
exchange, promoting international trade. This function is mainly discharged by
foreign Exchange Banks.

viii) Letter of References: Banks also give information about economic position
of their customers to domestic and foreign traders and vice versa

B) GENERAL UTILITY SERVICES:

In addition to agency services, banks render many more utility services to the
public. These services are :-

i)Locker Facilities : Banks provide locker facilities to their customers. People can
keep their valuables or important documents in these lockers. Their annual rent is
very nominal

ii) Issuing letters of credit : Bankers in a way by issuing letters of credit certify the
credit worthiness of the customers. Letters of credit are very popular in foreign trade.

iii) Acting as Underwriters : Banks also underwrite the securities issued by the
Government and Corporate bodies for a commission. The name of bank as an
underwriter encouraged investors to have faith in the security.

iv) Help in Transportation of Goods: Big businessmen or industrialists after


consigning goods to their retailers send the Railway Receipt (Consignment Note) to
the bank.

Chapter VII: Reason for Nationalization

Commercial banks created monopoly in the country.


The priority sector was neglected. Banks did not pay attention to credit needs
to farmers, small scale industries
Management lacked professional expertise.
Resources of banks were misused for benefit of directors.
Bank credit was not made according to five year developmental plans.

This was observed by the then prime minister Indira Gandhi in 1969. She thought that
these banks were not working for development of nation. So she thought of taking
over banks into government undertaking.

1955: Nationalization of State Bank of India.


1959: Nationalization of 7 SBI subsidiaries.
February 1st1969: Nationalization of 14 major banks with deposit of over 50cr.
1980: Nationalization of seven banks with deposits over 200cr.

Chapter VIII: PRODUCTS AND SERVICES OFFERED


BY BANKS

Broad Classification of Products in a bank:


The different products in a bank can be broadly classified into:
1. Retail Banking.
2. Trade Finance.

4. Common Banking Products Available:


Some of common available banking products are explained below:

1) Credit Card: Credit Card is postpaid or pay later card that draws from a
Rizvi Institute of Management Studies and Research
22
A Comparative Study of Nationalized and Private Bank Product Nabeel Shaikh

credit line-money made available by the card issuer (bank) and gives one a
grace period to pay. If the amount is not paid full by the end of the period, one
is charged interest.
A credit card is nothing but a very small card containing a means of identification,
such as a signature and a small photo. It authorizes the holder to change goods or
services to his account, on which he is billed. The bank receives the bills from the
merchants and pays on behalf of the card holder. Credit cards have found wide spread
acceptance in the metros and big cities. Credit cards are joining popularity for online
payments. The major players in the Credit Card market are the foreign banks and
some big public sector banks like SBI and Bank of Baroda. India at present has about
3 million credit cards in circulation.

2) Debit Cards: Debit Card is a prepaid or pay now card with some stored
value. Debit Cards quickly debit or subtract money from ones savings account, or if
one were taking out cash. Every time a person uses the card, the merchant who in turn
can get the money transferred to his account from the bank of the buyers, by debiting
an exact amount of purchase from the card. To get a debit card along with a Personal
Identification Number (PIN). When A CUSTOMER makes a purchase, he enters this
number on the shops PIN pad. When the card is swiped through the electronic
terminal, it dials the acquiring bank system either Master Card or Visa that validates
the PIN and finds out from the issuing bank whether to accept or decline the
transaction. The customer never overspread because the amount spent is debited
immediately from the customers account. So, for the debit card to work, one must
already have the money in the account to cover the transaction. There is no grace
period for a debit card purchase.
The major limitation of Debit Card is that currently only some 3000-4000 shops
country wide accepts it.

3) Automatic Teller Machine: The introduction of ATMs has given the


customers the facility of round the clock banking. The ATMs are used by banks for
making the customers dealing easier. ATM card is a device that allows customer who
has an ATM card to perform routine banking transaction at any time without
interacting with human teller. ATMs are currently becoming popular in India that
enables the customer to withdraw their money 24 hours a day and 365 days. The
advantages of ATMs are many. It increases existing business and generates new
business. It allows the customers.
To transfer money to and from accounts.
To view account information.

To receive cash.
Advantages of ATMs:
To the Customers
ATMs provide 24 hrs. 7 days and 365 days a year service.

Wider flexibility in place and time of withdrawals.

4) E-Cheaques: The e-cheaques consists five primary facts. They are the
consumers, the merchant, consumers bank the merchants bank and the e-mint and
the clearing process. Electronic version of cheaques are issued, received and
processed. A typical electronic cheque transaction takes place in the following
manner:
The customer accesses the merchant server and the merchant server presents its goods
to the customer.
The consumer selects the goods and purchases them by sending an e-cheque to the
merchant. The merchant validates the e-cheque with its bank for payment
authorisation.
The consumers bank updates the consumers account with the withdrawal
information.
The e-chequing is a great boon to big corporate as well as small retailers. Most major
banks accept e-cheques. Thus this system offers secure means of collecting payments,
transferring value and managing cash flows.

5) Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT): Many modern banks have computerised


their cheque handling process with computer networks and other electronic
equipments. These banks are dispensing with the use of paper cheques.
The system called electronic fund transfer (EFT) automatically transfers money from
one account to another. In big companies pay is not disbursed by issued cheques or
issuing cash. The payment office directs the computer to credit an employees account
with the persons pay.

6) Telebanking: Telebanking refers to banking on phone services.. a customer can


access information about his/her account through a telephone call and by giving the
coded Personal Identification Number (PIN) to the bank. Telebanking is extensively
user friendly and effective in nature.
To get a particular work done through the bank, the users may leave his instructions
in the form of message with bank.
Facility to stop payment on request. One can easily know about the cheque status.
Information on the current interest rates.
Information with regard to foreign exchange rates.
Request for a DD or pay order.
D-Mat Account related services.
And other similar services.

of mobile banking. On-line banking is now moving to the mobile world, giving
everybody with a mobile phone access to real-time banking services, regardless of

Rizvi Institute of Management Studies and Research


24
A Comparative Study of Nationalized and Private Bank Product Nabeel Shaikh

their location. But there is much more to mobile banking from just on-lie banking. It
provides a new way to pick up information and interact with the banks to carry out
the relevant banking business. The potential of mobile banking is limitless and is
expected to be a big success. Booking and paying for travel and even tickets is also
expected to be a growth area.. According to this system, customer can access account
details on mobile using the Short Messaging System (SMS) technology where select
data is pushed to the mobile device. The wireless application protocol (WAP)
technology,
which will allow user to surf the net on their mobiles to access anything and
everything. This is a very flexible way of transacting banking business.

8) Internet Banking: Internet banking involves use of internet for delivery of


banking products and services. With internet banking is now no longer confirmed to
the branches where one has to approach the branch in person, to withdraw cash or
deposits a cheque or request a statement of accounts. In internet banking, any inquiry
or transaction is processed online without any reference to the branch (anywhere
banking) at any time. The Internet Banking now is more of a normal rather than an
exception due to the fact that it is the cheapest way of providing banking services. As
indicated by McKinsey Quarterly research, presently traditional banking costs the
banks, more than a dollar per person, ATM banking costs 27 cents and internet
banking costs below 4 cents approximately. ICICI bank was the first one to offer
Internet Banking in India.

Benefits of Internet Banking:


Reduce the transaction costs of offering several banking services and diminishes
the need for longer numbers of expensive brick and mortar branches and staff.
Increase convenience for customers, since they can conduct many banking
transaction 24 hours a day.
Increase customer loyalty.
Improve customer access.
Attract new customers.
Easy online application for all accounts, including personal loans and mortgages

1) Electronic Cash: Companies are developing electronic replicas of all existing
payment system: cash, cheque, credit cards and coins.
Automatic Payments: Utility companies, loans payments, and other businesses use on
automatic payment system with bills paid through direct withdrawal from a bank
account.

2) Direct Deposits: Earnings (or Government payments) automatically deposited


into bank accounts, saving time, effort and money.
Rizvi Institute of Management Studies and Research
25
A Comparative Study of Nationalized and Private Bank Product Nabeel Shaikh

3) Stored Value Cards: Prepaid cards for telephone service, transit fares,
highway tolls, laundry service, library fees and school lunches.

4) Point of Sale transactions: Acceptance of ATM/Cheque at retail stores and


restaurants for payment of goods and services. This system has made functioning of
the stock Market very smooth and efficient.

5) Cyber Banking: It refers to banking through online services. Banks with web
site Cyber branches allowed customers to check balances, pay bills, transfer funds,
and apply for loans on the Internet.

6) Demat: Demat is short for de-materialisation of shares. In short, Demat is a


process where at the customers request the physical stock is converted into electronic
entries in the depository system.
In January 1998 SEBI (Securities and Exchange Board of India) initiated DEMAT
ACCOUNTANCY System to regulate and to improve stock investing. As on date, to
trade on shares it has become compulsory to have a share demat account and all
trades take place through demat.

How to Operate DEMAT ACCOUNT?


One needs to open a Demat Account with any of the branches of the bank.
After opening an account with any bank, by filling the demat request form one can
handover the securities. The rest will be taken care by the bank and the customer will
receive credit of shares as soon as it is confirmed by the Company/Register and
Transfer Agent. There is no physical movement of share certification any more. Any
buying or selling of shares is done via electronic transfers.
If the investor wants to sell his shares, he has to place an order with his broker and
give a Delivery Instruction to his DP (Depository Participant). The DP will debit his
account with the number of shares sold by him.
If one wants to buy shares, he has to inform his broker about his Depository Account
Number so that the shares bought by him are credited in to his account.
Payment for the electronic shares bought or sold is to be made in the same way as in
the case of physical securities.

Banking Services: Banking covers so many services that it is difficult to define it.
However, these basic services have always been recognized as the hallmark of the
genuine banker. These are
The receipt of the customers deposits
The collection of his cheques drawn on other banks
The payment of the customers cheques drawn on himself
There are other various types of banking services like:
Advances Overdraft, Cash Credit, etc.
Rizvi Institute of Management Studies and Research
26

Deposits Saving Account, Current Account, etc.


Financial Services Bill discounting etc.
Foreign Services Providing foreign currency, travelers cheques, etc.
Money Transmission Funds transfer etc.
Savings Fixed deposits, etc.
Services of place or time ATM Services.
Status Debit Cards, Credit Cards, etc.

Customer Services in Commercial Banks: Customer service is the service


provided in support of a banks core products. Customer service often includes
answering questions; handling complaints. Customer service can occur on site (as
when an onstage employee helps a customer or answers a question) or it can occur
over the phone or the Internet. Quality customer service is essential to building cordial
customer relationship.
Banking being a service industry, a lot depends on efficient and prompt
customer service. Customer service is the most important duty of the banking
operations. Prompt and efficient service with smile will develop good public relations
reduce complaints and increase business.
Why is Customer Service Important?
Changing customer expectations: Today the customer is more demanding and more
sophisticated than he or she was thirty years ago.
The increased importance of customer service: With changing customer expectations,
competitors are seeing customer service as a competitive weapon with which they
differentiate their products and services.
The need for a relationship strategy: To ensure that a customer service strategy that
will create a value preposition for customers should be formulated implemented and
controlled. It is necessary to give it a central role and not one that is subsumed in the
various elements of the marketing mix. The customer is the kingpim in growth
organizations like commercial banks. Only those institutions which work according to
his dictates will flourish. Quality, Consistency and Durability at low price are the final
expectations of a customer. Quality will have to be unambiguous, of world class
quality. Quality cannot be of minimum acceptable standards. Customer
responsiveness must be quick and also competent. Speed, performance and cost will
be the new values mantra for success. The ten key areas of customers services to
be attended timely and regularly are:
i. Submission of statement of A/Cs to customers

ii. Updating of savings pass books.

iii. Teller system efficiency.

iv. Cleanliness and Upkeep of premises.

v. Intermediate Credit for institution cheques/land bills.


Rizvi Institute of Management Studies and Research
27

vi. Advance intimation to customers for rewards of Term Deposits Receipts on


maturity.

vii. Advance for Debit/credit to accounts.

viii. Punctuality of staff.

ix. Handling of complaint register.

x. Maintain a complaint register.

Customers dissatisfaction in the banking industry is neither recent nor


unknown. This is mainly due to delays in handling transactions across the counter in
collections, update of passbooks supply of statements of accounts, etc. Failure to
provide prompt and efficient customer service is likely to lead to reduction in the
number of customers and they may have to face closure. To event such situation the
following improvements in the customer services may be carried out:

1) Personal relations of the bank employee with customers will improve


customer satisfaction. 1 service with smile should be the motto of every bank
employee.

2) Rapid customer services should be provided through automation of work and


simplification of procedures.

3) ATMs may be introduced in all the branches of the banks, based upon the
volume of transactions. This shall facilitate non-stop banking.

4) Credit Cards Services, Debit Card Services, which should be provided to the
customers, must a link service with all the banks and branches if possible to
facilitate the customer and the business organizations.

5) E-mail service made freely available at all banking centers.

Rizvi Institute of Management Studies and Research


28
A Comparative Study of Nationalized and Private Bank Product Nabeel Shaikh

6) Foreign Exchange transactions are to be extended to all the branches to


facilitate trade and industries.

7) All the customers are not homogenous in their needs. Hence need based
schemes may be introduced.

8) Totally deregulated interest rate structure should be there.

9) The banking staff must be trained to understand the customers psychology, so


they may provide customer service in a qualified manner.

10) Educating the customers will increases better utilisation of banking services.

Chapter IX: ROLE OF INFORMATION


TECHNOLOGY (IT) IN THE BANKING SECTOR

Banking environment has become highly competitive today. To be able


to survive and grow in the changing market environment banks are going for the latest
technologies, which is being perceived as an enabling resource that can help in
developing learner and more flexible structure that can respond quickly to the
dynamics of a fast changing market scenario. It is also viewed as an instrument of cost
reduction and effective communication people and institutions associated with the
banking business. Information Technology enables sophisticated product
development, better market infrastructure, implementation of reliable techniques for
control of risks and helps the financial intermediaries to reach geographically distant
and diversified markets. Internet has significantly influenced delivery channels of the

banks. Internet has emerged as an important medium for delivery of banking products
and services.

The customers can view the accounts; get account statements, transfer funds and
purchase drafts by just punching on few keys. The smart cards i.e., cards with
microprocessor chip have added new dimension to the scenario. IT is increasingly
moving from a back office function to a prime assistant in increasing the value of a
bank over time. IT does so by maximizing banks of pro-active measures such as
strengthening and standardizing banks infrastructure in respect of security,
communication and networking, achieving inter branch connectivity, moving towards
Real Time gross settlement (RTGS) environment the forecasting of liquidity by
building real time databases, use of Magnetic Ink Character Recognition and Imaging
technology for cheque clearing to name a few. Indian banks are going for the retail
banking in a big wa E-Banking: E-banking made its debut in UK and USA 1920s. It
becomes prominently popular during 1960, through electronic funds transfer and
credit cards. The concept of web-based baking came into existence in Europe and
USA in the beginning of 1980.

In India e-banking is of recent origin. The traditional model for growth has been
through branch banking. Only in the early 1990s has there been a start in the non-
branch banking services. The new private sector banks and the foreign banks are
handicapped by the lack of a strong branch network in comparison with the public
sector banks.

On-line banking is an effective medium of promotion of various schemes of the bank,


a marketing tool indeed.

Integrated customer data paves way for individualised and customised services.

Impact of IT on the Service Quality: The most visible impact of technology


is reflected in the way the banks respond strategically for making its effective use for
efficient service delivery. This impact on service quality can be summed up as below:

With automation, service no longer remains a marketing edge with the large banks
only. Small and relatively new banks with limited network of branches become better
placed to compete with the established banks, by integrating IT in their operations.

The technology on one hand serves as a powerful tool for customer servicing, on the
other hand, it itself results in depersonalizing of the banking services. This has an
adverse effect on relationship banking. A decade of computerization can probably
never substitute a simple or a warm handshake.

Impact of IT on Banking System: The banking system is slowly shifting from


the Traditional Banking towards relationship banking. Traditionally the relationship
between the bank and its customers has been on a one-to-one level via the branch
network. This was put into operation with clearing and decision making
responsibilities concentrated at the individual branch level. The head office had
responsibility for the overall clearing network, the size of the branch network and the
training of staff in the branch network. The bank monitored the organisations
performance and set the decision making parameters, but the information available to
both branch staff and their customers was limited to one geographical location.

Chapter XIV: RECENT AND CURRENT TRENDS IN


BANKING

RECENT TRENDS IN BANKING:


Today, we are having a fairly well developed banking system with different classes of
banks public sector banks, foreign banks, private sector banks both old and new
generation, regional rural banks and co-operative banks with the Reserve Bank of
India as the fountain Head of the system.
During the last 39 years since 1969, tremendous changes have taken place in the
banking industry. The banks have shed their traditional functions and have been
innovating, improving and coming out with new types of the services to cater to the
emerging needs of their customers.
The major challenges faced by banks today are as to how to cope with competitive
forces and strengthen their balance sheet. Today, banks are groaning with burden of
NPAs. It is rightly felt that these contaminated debts, if not recovered, will eat into
the very vitals of the banks. Another major anxiety before the banking industry is
the high transaction cost of carrying Non-Performing Assets in their books. The
resolution of the NPA problem requires greater accountability on the part of the
corporate, greater disclosure in the case of defaults, an efficient credit information
sharing system and an appropriate legal framework pertaining to the banking system
so that court procedures can be streamlined and actual recoveries made within an
acceptable time frame. The banking industry cannot afford to sustain itself with
such high levels of NPAs thus, lend, but lent for a purpose and with a purpose
ought to be the slogan for salvation. homes and operating through internet. This
would be the case of banking reaching the customers.
In the days to come, banks are expected to play a very useful role in the economic
development and the emerging market will provide ample business opportunities to
harness. Human Resources Management is assuming to be of greater importance. As
banking in India will become more and more knowledge supported, human capital
will emerge as the finest assets of the banking system.

Current Trends in the Banking sector:


Telephone banking is a service provided by a bank or other financial institution
that enables customers to perform financial transactions over the telephone,
without the need to visit a bank branch or automated teller machine. Telephone
banking times can be longer than branch opening times, and some financial
institutions offer the service on a 24 hour basis. From the bank's point of view,
telephone banking reduces the cost of handling transactions by reducing the need
for customers to visit a bank branch for non-cash withdrawal and deposit
transactions. Real time gross settlement systems (RTGS) are specialist funds
transfer systems where transfer of money or securities takes place from one bank
to another on a "real time" and on "gross" basis. Settlement in "real time" means
payment transaction is not subjected to any waiting period. The transactions are
settled as soon as they are processed. "Gross settlement" means the transaction is
settled on one to one basis without bundling or netting with any other transaction.
Once processed, payments are final and irrevocable.RTGS systems are typically
used for high-value transactions that require immediate clearing, in some
countries the RTGS systems may be the only way to get same day cleared funds
and so may be used when payments need to be settled urgently such as when
purchasing a house. However most regular payments would not use a RTGS
system, but instead would use a national payment system or network that allows
participants to batch and net payments Electronic funds transfer (EFT) is the
electronic exchange, transfer of money from one account to another, either within
a single financial institution or across multiple institutions, through computer-
based systems. ECS is an electronic mode of payment / receipt for transactions
that are repetitive and periodic in nature. ECS is used by institutions for making
bulk payment of amounts towards distribution of dividend, interest, salary,
pension, etc., or for bulk collection of amounts towards telephone / electricity /
water dues, cess / tax collections, loan installment repayments, periodic
investments in mutual funds, insurance premium etc. Essentially, ECS facilitates
bulk transfer of monies from one bank account too many bank accounts or vice
versa. Primarily, there are two variants of ECS - ECS Credit and ECS Debit

Point of sale terminal (POS terminal) is an electronic device used to process card
payments at retail locations. A POS terminal generally does the following:
Reads the information off a customers credit or debit card
Checks whether the funds in a customers bank account are sufficient
Transfers the funds from the customers account to the sellers account (or at least,
accounts for the transfer with the credit card network)
Records the transaction and prints a receipt

Chapter VX: CONCLUSION

The banking scenario has changed drastically. The changes which have taken
place in the last ten years are more than the changes took place in last fifty years
because of the invention of new and creative products institutionalisation,
liberalisation, globalization, technology and automation in the banking industry.
Indian banking system and products has several outstanding achievements to its
credit, the most striking of which is its reach. Indian banks are now spread out into
the remote corners of our country. In terms of the number of branches, Indias
banking system is one of the largest in the world. According to the Banker 2012,
India has 20 banks within the worlds top 1000 out of which only 6 are within the
top 500 banks.
Today banking sector is marked by high customer expectations and technological
innovations. Technology is playing a crucial role in the day to day functioning of
the banks. These banks that have harnessed and leveraged technology best have a
strategic advantage. To face competition, it is necessary for banks to absorb the
technology and upgrade their services.
In todays context banks products are following the strategy of relationship
banking than mass banking which is need of the hour. The customer services
are playing a very significant role in banking business. In India, major events
leading to deregulation, liberalisation and privatisation have unleashed forces of
competition, making the banks run for their business, not only to create the
customer, but more difficult to run for their business, not only to create the
customer, but more difficult to retain the customer. Prompt and efficient customer
service, thus, has become very significant. Relationship banking is the new
paradigm for survival and success, embracing a share of customer approach to
growth by identifying, protecting and expanding customer relationship.
