1
 INTRODUCTION
Customer awareness is about making the customer aware of his/her rights. It is
a marketing term which means that customers are aware of products or services, its
characteristics and the other marketing P's (place to buy, price, and promotion). High
prices, duplicate articles, underweight and under - measurements, rough behavior,
undue conditions, artificial scarcity are some of the ways by which customers are
exploited by manufacturers and traders. Limited information, limited supplies and low
literacy are factors causing exploitation of customers.

Customer awareness is a very important element as we attempt to move

forward a close out sales. This can be an issue both online and offline with really the
same science behind each of them.

There are so many stages of awareness in customer. Which are as follows?

1. The most aware - customer knows of your product, knows what it does, and
knows he wants it.
2. Customer knows of your product, but doesn't yet want it.
3. New Product - customer knows or recognizes that they want what the product
does... but doesn't know that there is a product, yours, that will fulfill
their want.
4. New products that solve NEEDS - customer has a need they want fulfilled
but isn't aware of the connection between their need and your product.
The completely unaware market.
However, an organized and systematic movement to safeguard the interest of
customers is a recent phenomenon. The customers have .o be aware not only of the
commercial aspects of sale and purchase of goods but also of the health and security
aspects. Food safety has become an important element of customer awareness these
days. In case of food products, its quality depends not cm on its nutritional value, but
also on its safety for human consumption. Consumption of contaminated or
adulterated food is a major cause of human illness and suffering.

This called for strong legal measures to ensure that the manufacturers and
sellers observe uniformity and transparency in prices, stocks and quality of their

2
goods. Enactment of Customer Protection Act, 1986 was one of the most important
steps taken to protect the interests of customers. The provision of the Act came into
force, with effect from July 1, 1987. The act recognizes customer's right to seek
redresses and right to customer education. The salient features of the Act are as
follows:-

Applies to all goods and services unless specifically exempted by the Union
Government;
Covers all the sectors whether private, public or cooperative;
Enshrines the customer's rights related to safety. information, choice,
representation and redress and customer education.
The act gives customers an additional remedy besides those which may be
available to them under the provisions of other existing laws and they are free
to choose the remedy.
Empower customers seeking discontinuance of certain unfair and restrictive
trade practices, defects or deficiencies in services and stopping in services or
withdrawal of hazardous goods from the market.

Industry Profile:
Banking in India originated in the first decade of 18th century. The General
Bank of India came into existence in 1786. This was followed by Bank of Hindustan.
Both these banks are now defunct. The oldest bank in existence in India is the State
Bank of India being established as "The Bank of Bengal" in Calculate in June 1806. A
couple of decades later, foreign banks like Credit Lyonnais started their Calcutta
operations in the 1850s. At that point of time, Calcutta was the most active trading
port, mainly due to the trade of the British Empire, and due to which banking activity
took roots there and prospered. The first fully Indian owned bank was the Allahabad
Bank, which was established in 1865. By the 1900s, the market expanded with the
establishment of banks such as Punjab National Bank, in 1895 in Lahore and Bank of
India, in 1906, in Mumbai - both of which were founded under private ownership.
The Reserve Bank of India formally took on the responsibility of regulating the
Indian banking sector from 1935. After India's independence in 1947, the Reserve
Bank was nationalized and given broader powers. The banking in India was
controlled aid combated by the presidency banks, namely, the Bank of Bombay, the
Bank of Bengal, and the Bank of Madras -which later on merged to form the Imperial
Bank of India, and Imperial Bank of India, upon India's independence, was rename the
State Bank of India. The presidency banks were like the central banks and discharged
most old the font tins of central banks. They were established under charters from the
British Eats India Company. The exchange banks, mostly owned by the Europeans,
concentrated on financing of foreign trade. Indian joint stock banks were generally
under capil lazed a i d lacked the experience and maturity to compete with the
presidency banks, and the exchange banks. There was potential for many new banks
as the economy was growing Under these circumstances, many Indians came forward
to set up banks, and many banks were set up at that time, and a number of them set up
around that time continued o survive and prosper even now like Bank of India and
Corporation Bank, Indian Bank, Bank of Baroda, and Canada Bank.

b. Growth and Present Status of t h e Industry:-

By the 1960s, the Indian banking industry has become an in important tool to
facilitate the development of the Indian economy. At the same time, it has emerged as a
large employer, and a debate has ensued about the possibility to nationalize the

6
banking industry. Indira Gandhi, the-then Prime Minister o: India expressed the
intention of the GOI in the annual conference of the All India Congress Meeting in a
paper entitled "Stray thoughts on Bank Nationalization”

The paper was received with positive enthusiasm. Thereafter, her move was
swift and sudden, and the GOI issued an ordinance and nationalized the 14 largest
commercial banks with effect from the midnight of July 19, 1969. Jayaprakash
Narayan, a national leader of India, described the step as a "masterstroke of political
sagacity." Within two weeks of the issue of the ordinance, the Parliament passed the
Banking Companies (Acquition and Transfer of Undertaking) Bill, and it received the
presidential approval on 9th August, 1969. A second dose of nationalization of 6 more
commercial banks followed in 1980. The stated reason for the nationalization was to
give the government more control of credit delivery. With the second dose of
nationalization, the GOI controlled around 91% of the banking business of India.
After this, until the 1990s, the nationalize banks grew at a pace of around 4% closer to
the average growth rate of the Indian economy.

c. Future of the Industry:-

A healthy banking system is essential for any economy striving to achieve
good Growth and yet remain stable in an increasingly global business environment.
The Indian banking system, with one of the largest banking networks in the world,
has witnessed a series of reforms over the past few years like the deregulation of
interest rates, dilution of the government stake in public sector banks (PSBs), and the
increased participation of private sector banks. The growth of the retail financial
services sector has been a key development on the market front. Indian banks (both
public and private) have not only been keen to tap the domestic market but also to
compete in the global market place. New foreign banks have been equally keen to
gain a foothold in the Indian market. The momentum in credit growth has been
maintained during 2005-06 due to two factors: The corporate sector has stepped up its
demand for credit to fund its expansion plans; there has also been a growth in retail
banking. However, even as the opportunities increase, there are some issues and
challenges that Indian banks will have to contend with f they are to emerge successful

7
in the medium to long term. This report discusses these issues and challenges - both
intrinsic and external, such as

Consolidation
Consolidation, which has been on the counter over the last year or so, is likely
to gather momentum in the coming years. Post April 2009, when the restrictions on
operations of foreign banks will go, the banking landscape is expected to change
dramatically. Foreign banks, which currently account for 5% of total deposits and 8%
of total advances, are devising new business models to capture the Indian market.
Their full-fledged entry is expected to transform the business of banking in many
ways, which would be reflected in terms of greater breadth of products. Depth in
delivery channels and efficiency in operations. Thus Indian banks have less than three
years to consolidate their position. Despite the stiff resistance from certain segments,
consolidation holds the key to future growth. This view is underpinned by the
following:
 Owing to greater scale and size, consolidation can help save costs and Improve
operational efficiency.
 Banks will also have to explore different avenues for raising capital to meet
Norms under Basel-II
 Owing to the diversified operations and credit profiles of merging banks,
consolidation is likely to serve as a risk-mitigation exercises as much as a
growth Engine.

Though there is no confirmation yet, speculative signals arising from the

market point to the prospect of consolidation involving banks such as Union Bank of
India, Bank of India, Bank of Baroda, Dena Bank, Sta1; Bank of Patiala, and Punjab
and Sind Bank. Further, the case for merger between stronger banks has also gained
ground — a clear deviation from the past when only weak banks were thrust on
stronger banks. There is a case being made for mergers between banks with a distinct
geographical presence coming together to leverage their respective strengths.

accounts department of Dena bank, copy of which is in the possession of Indian
Express, showed that the bank's CAR stood at 9.33% would go down as low as 6.02%
as per the latest RBI guidelines. In simple terms, a low CAR implies that the bank
would be trouble there is a run on it since it has overexposed itself.

Further, miscellaneous income, which also accounted for the increase in

profits, went up by Rs.32.92 crores of the miscellaneous income was due to transfer
of old credits over five years lying with the bank in suspense receipts / unclaimed

 REVIEW OF LITERATURE

INTRODUCTION
The process of development along with the expanding globalization and
liberalization process has increased the number of customer related issues. Customer
protection has earned an important place in the political, economic and social agendas
of many nations. In India, the Government has taken many steps including legislative, to
protect customers.

Education is a lifelong process of constantly acquiring relevant information,

knowledge and skills. Customer education is an important part of this process and is a
basic customer right that must be introduced at the school level. Customers by definition
include all citizens who are, by and large the biggest group, who are affected by
almost ail government, public or private decisions. The most important step in
customer education is awareness of customer rights. However, customer education is
incomplete without the responsibilities and duties of customers, and this influences
individual behavior to a great extent.

Customer awareness is the knowledge that a customer should have about his/her
legal rights and duties. It is must for a customer to follow these rights. It is implemented
for the protection of the customer, so that the customer is not exploited by
the seller of the products.

Customer awareness, which refers to a buyers knowledge of a particular product

or company, allows the buyer to get the most from what he buys. Customers know more
about their choices when they have product information and benefit from knowing their
rights, hearing about alerts and warnings and finding out about safety issues.

Anyone who consumes goods is a customer. Customers get exploited in the

market. They respond to advertisements and buy goods. Generally advertisements do
not give all the information that a customer needs to know or wants to know about a
product.

23
Customer awareness is a marketing concept that measures customers' knowledge of a
brand's existence. At the aggregate (brand) level, it refers to the proportion of
customers who know of the brand. Customer awareness remains fundamental to
customer life us the interaction initiation point to the brands. The approach takes into
account sources of brand equity - customer awareness, customer/brand loyalty, and
image (perceptions/associations) in the minds of customer.

Measurement driven conceptualization

Customer awareness means the extent to which a brand associated with a
particular product is documented by potential and existing customers either positively
or negatively. Creation customer awareness is the primary goal of advertising at the
beginning of any product's life cycle in target markets, and has influence on buying
behaviour of a buyer. All of these calculations are, at best, approximations. A more
complete understanding of the brand can occur if multiple measures are used.

Brand equity is the positive effect of the brand on the difference between the
prices that the customer accepts to pay when the brand known compared to the value of
the benefit received.

There are two schools of thought regarding the existence of negative brand
equity. One perspective states brand equity cannot be negative, hypothesizing only
positive brand equity is created by marketing activities such as advertising, PR, and
promotion. A second perspective is that negative equity can exist, due to catastrophic
events to the brand, such as a wide product recall or continued negative press
attention.

Colloquially, the term "negative brand equity" may be used to describe a

product or service where a brand has a negligible effect on a product level when
compared to a no-name or private label product. The brand-related negative intangible
assets are called "brand liability", compared with "brand equity".

Brand recognition - Either the brand name or both the brand name and category
name are presented to respondents.

24
Brand recall - the product category name is given to respondents who are asked to
recall as many brands as possible that are members of the category.

Top of mind awareness - as above, but only the first brand recalled is recorded
(also known as spontaneous brand recall).

Research on metrics
There has been discussion in industry and practice about the meaning and value
of various customer awareness metrics. Recently, an empirical study appeared to put this
debate to rest by suggesting that all awareness metrics were systematically related,
simply reflecting their difficulty, in the same way that certain questions are more
difficult in academic exams.

Brand recall
Brand Recall is the extent to which a brand name is recalled as a member of a
brand, product or service class, as distinct from brand recognition.

Common market research usage is that pure b -and recall requires "unaided recall".
For example a respondent may be asked to recall the names of any cars he may know, or
any whisky brands he may know.

Some researchers divide recall into both "unaided" and "aided" recall. "Aided
recall" measures the extent to which a brand name is remembered when the actual brand
name is prompted. An example of such a question is "Do you know of the "Honda"
brand?"
In terms of brand exposure, companies want to look for high levels of unaided
recall in relation to their competitors. The first recalled brand name (often called "top of
mind") has a distinct competitive advantage in brand space, as it has the first chance of
evaluation for purchase.

25
Brand Recognition

Brand Recognition is the extent to which a brand is recognized for stated brand
attributes, parts, offerings, or communications.

In some cases brand recognition is defined as aided recall - and as a subset of

brand recall. In this case, brand recognition is the extent to which a brand name is
recognized when prompted with the actual name.

A broader view of brand recognition is the extent to which a. brand is

recognized within a product class for certain attributes. Logo and tagline testing can be
seen as a form of brand recognition testing. For example, if a product name can be
associated with a certain tagline, logo or attribute a certain level of brand recognition is
present.

Stability of responses
While customer awareness scores tend to be quite stable at aggregate (level)
level, individual customers show considerable propensity to change their responses to
recall based customer awareness measures. For top of mind recall measures, customers
give the same answer in two interviews typically only 50% the time. Similar low levels
of consistency in response have been recorded for other cues to elicit brand name
responses

DEFINITION:

Making existing and potential customers knowledgeable about

products/services, customer awareness programs create more informed buying
decisions Customers cannot purchase products and service if they do not know they
exist.

A lack of customer awareness in any industry can harm sales. If specific

products and services are better known, those products and services will remain on the

26
front line in sales. Therefore, it is important to implement customer awareness programs
that will introduce and make the target audience aware of the products and services a
company offers.

Customer awareness is the process of notifying the public or target customers

about new products, recalls on products, disease outbreaks, public service information
and many other types of news. Many companies use certain advertising mediums like
newspapers or radio ads to promote customer awareness. Informing the public about
vital information or new products plus positive word-of-mouth experiences can have; a
synergistic effect on disseminating information amidst the public. Following are some
steps you can take to create customer awareness about your product or public service
information.

Need for Customer Awareness:

1) It has been observed that the people for whom various schemes have been taken
up by Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), in fact, do not get benefit as expected.
This is mainly because they are not fully aware of these schemes and their
benefits.

Also, only knowledgeable and alert customers aware of their rights and
responsibilities can protect themselves effectively. The need of the hour is,
therefore, to educate the common customers particularly those in rural areas
who are more susceptible to exploitation. Once they are educated and made
aware of the schemes that have been drawn up for their benefit and also the
redressal forum that is available, the benefit of various schemes, in true sense,
will reach the common customers of the country.

It is, therefore, our bounden duty to play our part jointly and effectively in
disseminating various schemes to the common customers of the country. In
this regard, the role of the voluntary customer organizations, customer
activists, non-governmental organizations, educational institutions and media
cannot be ignored.

27
2) Making existing and potential customers knowledgeable about products/services,
customer awareness programs create more informed buying decisions.
Customers cannot purchase products and services if they do not know they
exist. A lack of customer awareness in any industry can harm sales. If specific
products and services are. better known, those products and services will remain
on the front line in sales. Therefore, it is important to implement customer
awareness programs that will introduce and make the target audience aware of
the products and services a company offers. Customer awareness programs can
be initiated through the utilization of flyers, brochures, television, radio, guides,
fact sheets, information posted to a Web site, school programs, and other
sources depending upon the topic and the message delivered.

3) We need it so we will not be misled by producers, it explains if what we buy is

worth to our money and not harmful to us and to environment.

Many people are ignorant of their rights to get protected against the
exploitation by so many others. So when there is a forum for such redress of
grievances there seems to be no such exploitation by many; and becomes a rare
one. So in Older to get a clear picture of the level of exploitation of customers,
the awareness is required.

Importance of Customer Awareness

Customer awareness is a term used to describe the awareness of a potential or
current buyer about a particular product or company. Customer awareness can be as
simple as a shopper remembering a television commercial or as specific as a customer
delving into the manufacturing origins of a specific product.

Function
Customer awareness plays a key role in customer decision making. By increasing
a potential or current customer's knowledge about a product, service or business, a
healthy economic environment is established in which customers are informed and
protected and businesses are accountable.

28
Considerations
Customer education is an ongoing process that considers a variety of factors,
including price, reputation, personal knowledge, history, social issues and other
factors.

Benefits
There are several significant benefits to customer awareness for both individuals
and society as a whole.

The benefits of customer awareness for individuals include enhanced critical

thinking, improved life skills and increased self-confidence.

Customer awareness benefits society by promoting customer satisfaction,

increasing economic stability and creating realistic customer expectations.

Types
There are several different types of customer awareness Media awareness
involves a customer's knowledge of the advertising surrounding a given product or
company. Media awareness also encompasses independent product reviews online or
in print publications. Cost awareness involves comparing the prices of a similar product
among different competitors.

Creating customer awareness:

Decide whom you want to target about your product or public service
announcement. Determine which advertising medium or methods you can use to
reach your target audience. Have those various media companies send you a media kit
on their circulation, readership or reach as well as the price of all types of promotions.
Develop a website to include in your advertising.

29
 Design a logo that distinctly identifies your product or public service company.
Create a memorable character like Mr. Clean or Smokey the Bear to,
respectively, promotes your product or public service announcement.
Develop a small booklet that contains vital information about your product or
information that you want distributed. Have it printed at a local print shop. Hire
people to hand these booklets out at retail outlets or high traffic areas, inviting
customer to try the product or read more about a particular issue.
Schedule a seminar at schools, office complexes or manufacturing plants if
you have information that is vital to students or workers. Discuss the particular
topic and explain the steps people can take to resolve any particular issues.
Advertise your product or public service announcement on radio stations that
appeal to your target audience. Run the advertisement frequently in the early
stages of your product introduction or public service message to build customer
awareness among customers.
Promote your product or public service message on television when your target
audience is most likely to view it. Place full-page ads in the newspaper in the
business section or in a section related to your product or public service
message.

Brand equity:
Brand equity is the marketing effects and outcomes that accrue to a product with
its brand name compared with those that would accrue if the same product did not have
the brand name. Fact of the well-known brand name is that, the company can sometimes
charge premium prices from the customer. And, at the root of these marketing effects is
customers' knowledge. In other words, customers' knowledge about a brand makes
manufacturers and advertisers respond differently or adopt appropriately adept measures
for the marketing of the brat d. The study of brand equity is increasingly popular as
some marketing researchers have concluded that brands are one of the most valuable
assets a company has. Brand equity is one of the factors which can increase the
financial value of a brand to the brand owner, although not the only one. Elements that
can be included in the valuation of brand equity include (but not limited to): changing
market share, profit margins, customer recognition of logos and other visual elements,

30
brand language associations made by customers, customers' perceptions of quality and
other relevant brand values.
There have been three different perspectives for considering brand equity; The
customer- based perspectives, the financial perspectives and combined perspectives.
While this study focus on the customer based perspectives.

Customer- Based Brand Equity.

The advantage of conceptualizing brand equity from the Customer- based
perspective is that it enables managers to consider specifically how their marketing
programs improves the value of their brands in the minds of customers. Within the
marketing literature, operationalization of customer based-brand equity usually falls
into two groups.

Customer perception (customer awareness, brand associations, perceived

quality) and customer behavior (brand loyalty, willingness to pay a high price).

Customer- Based Brand Equity is defined as "a set of Brand asses aid
liabilities linked to a brand, its name and symbol that add to or subtract from the
value provided by a product or service to a firm's customers.

Factors influencing Customer awareness:

Customer Awareness refers to the strength of a brand's presence in the
customer's mind.
Awareness is measured according to the different ways in which customers
remember a brand, ranging from recognition to recall to top of the mind.

Some of the major factors affecting customer awareness are

Brand Name: One of the most important factors affecting Customer

awareness is the brand name. Brand name plays an important part in creating
awareness for a brand. Also whether the name is really very meaningful or completely
baseless they both affect customer awareness.

31
 Advertising: Advertising also helps to create Customer awareness in a big
way. Take any brand name Fevicol, Vicks, Pepsi all have used ads for creating
awareness among their customers.

Celebrity: Another important factor affecting Customer awareness is the

celebrities endorsing the Brand. Whenever you see a celebrity you love endorsing a
brand you tend to propagate the Brand.

Parent Company: To a large extent the parent company helps in

promoting a brand. The parent company in many cases is so popular that its brand
automatically become popular and people become aware about the product.

Sales Promotions and Offers: It also helps in making the customers

aware of the brand. Some of the sales promotion activities that companies carry out
help their in a big way to make their target aware of the brand.

First Mover Advantage: Usually the company that enters a product

category first has good awareness about its brand. Usually people tend to remember
the first player to enter the market.

Public Relations: The coverage that the fourth estate and magazines
provide a brand also helps in building awareness about a brand.

Direct Selling: Some of the companies use direct selling as a platform to

create customer awareness.

Peer Group Opinion: Peer group opinion also plays an important part in
the whole brandy awareness exercise. Usually people tend to discuss a lo: about the
brand and tend to share their experiences or some recent ad's they have seen which in
turn increases customer awareness of their peers.

32
 Recall of Ads: In some cases the customer awareness is also high due to
specific ad recall, which is very high.
It indicates stronger brand position in the mind. Still a; a higher level is the top
of the mind recall; it is the brand, which comes first to the mind. The top of mind
awareness indicates a relative superiority a brand enjoys above others. Sometimes a
brand becomes so dominant that it becomes the only recalled brand in the product
category. Very few brands are able to achieve dominance.

Brand Association:
The association's customers make with brand support brand equity. These
associations may include product attributes, a celebrity spokesperson or a symbol.

Brand associations are driven by brand identity-what the: organization wants the
brand to stand for in the customers mind. A key to brand building then is to develop
and implement brand identity.

One key to successful brand building is to develop a brand identity - to know

what the brand stands for and to effectively express that identity.

Invariably all brands come to acquire a meaning in the mini of the customer.
Customers associate different dimensions of the product including its use and use
situations to the brands. Brand association, therefore, is anything linked to the memory
of a brand.

Brand identity:
Brand identity is a unique set of brand associations that the braid strategist
aspires to create or maintain. These associations represent what the brand stands for
and imply a promise to customers from the organization members.

Brand identity should establish a relationship between the brand and the
customer by generating a value proposition involving functional, emotional or self-
expressive benefits.

33
Factors in Customer Adoption of Internet Banking
In this section, we first describe the theoretical framework and second, provide
findings relating to some important gender differences discovered. The theoretical
framework was developed from the themes identified in the analysis results, as follows.
We first observed that some themes were deemed more important than others by
participants when making their banking service delivery channel choices and selected
these as factors in the model. Second, we noted that several of these factors appeared
interrelated. Third, a temporal sequence for some factors was suggested by the way
participants linked these factors in the data. A summary of the framework follows, with
more important factors as indicated by the analysis noted in the relevant descriptions.

At the top of figure 1, the framework shows that a bank must first attract
banking customer attention to the internet banking service before the customer, will
consider internet banking. However, unless the customer has a high level of internet
accessibility at home or at work, she is unlikely to consider using internet banking. The
customer also assesses whether it is convenient to conduct her banking that way
(convenience), how usable die application appears (usability), and her perceived
competence at internet use and banking application use (self-efficacy). The four
factors of accessibility, self-efficacy, convenience and usability are interrelated. The
customer also considers whether the perceived relative advantages of internet banking
compared with other banking forms outweigh perceived risks and costs. In addition,
the availability of sufficient support and in depth knowledge from the bank and its
employees contribute significantly to the adoption decision.

Rights and Duties of Customers:

As codified under the Indian Laws the Customers have the following Rights:
 Right to Safety—to protect against hazardous goods
 Right to be Informed—about price, quality, purity
 Right to choose—access to a variety of goods and services at competitive prices.
 Right to be Heard—customers interest and welfare must be taken care of
 Right to seek Redressal—protection against unfair trade practices and settling
genuine grievances.
 Right to Customer Education.—Knowledge about goods and issues related to
customers.
34
Duties:
 Get a bill for every important purchase and also the Warranty card
 Check the ISI mark or Agmark on the goods
 Form customer awareness groups
 Make a complaint on genuine grievances.
 Customers must know to exercise their rights.

 Research Methodology

Research Methodology is a way systematically to solve the research problem. It

may be understood as a science of studying how research is done scientifically. It is
necessary for the researcher to know not only the methods or techniques b A also the
methodology.

Research design:
Research design is the plan, structure, and strategy of investigation conceived so as
to obtained answers to research questions. Research design is purely a framework or a
plan for study that guides in the collection of data. Descriptive research design is
adopted for analyzing the data.

Research Method:
The research design is a Descriptive Research. Descriptive statistics was tabular,
graphical & numerical summaries of data. Its main purpose is to facilitate the
presentation and INFERENCEof data. Descriptive Research design involves description
of the variables making up the demographic and geographic profile of the sample

Source of data:
Primary Data:
Primary data has collected directly from customers through structured
questionnaires (Individual sample units)
Secondary Data:
Secondary data has collected from the various magazines, journals, website of
DENA BANK and various websites.

Sampling Method:
The population includes male and female customers residing in the area of
T.Nagar with the criteria: Customers with Dena bank. In this project convenience
sampling method is followed.

37
Definition: Convenience.
In convenience sampling, a sample is obtained by selecting convenient
population elements from the population.

Sample Size:
Our Sample size was 150, who fulfill the basis criteria- Customers with Dena
bank.

Sampling unit:
A sample unit is a single individual, who is having Dena bank accounts.

Data collection method:

Self-administered Personal survey method was used to collect the necessary
data. For this purpose appropriate questionnaires were designed.

Data collection instrument:

Appropriately designed questionnaire to facilitate self-administered surveys with
simple standard questions were used to collect data.

Structure of Questionnaire:
The questions formulated were structured and non-disguised. The questions were
asked in order to get all the necessary information and to see that the respondents could
answer them with case. This pattern adopted facilitated in analyzing the data.

Types of questions asked:

1. Multiple choice questions

Many choices of responses are given and the respondent chooses one response.
The advantage of this type is easy tabulation and quick response by the respondent.

38
2. Dichotomous questions
This type of questions is of 'Yes' or 'No' format. There are only two choices of
answers and the respondent has to choose either 'Yes' or 'No'.

3. Open questions
These are also known as 'free-answer' type questions.

39
The statistical tool used for analysis of the data is Chi-square test.
Based on the answer received on the question in the questionnaire, the
following analysis and findings have been derived.

Chi-square test:
Chi-square is a non-parametric test which can be used to determine categorical
data shows dependency or that two classification are independent. It can also make
comparisons between the theoretical population and actual data, when categories are
used. It is mostly used most frequently by marketing researches to test hypothesis.

This test is employed for testing hypothesis when distributed population is not
known and when nominal data is to be analyzed. Chi-square aims at determining
whether the difference exists among graphs of data or whether the differences are due
to sampling. Chi-square analysis is used to find out dependency between two different
attributes.

=∑ (Oi-Ei)2 / Ei

Where,
 Oi = Observed frequency
 Ei = Expected frequency

The Ei can be calculated as,

Ei = (Row total * Column total)/ Grand total

The calculated value of is compared with table value of for given
degrees of freedom at specified level of significance. It is accepted when the
calculated value is lesser than tabulated value and rejected when the calculated value
is greater than the table value.

are not using it due to the awareness of the particular direct banking channel.

Internet banking channels through publicity and advertisement.

and also about their advantages. This would prompt the customers to shift from
traditional brick and mortar channel.

channel are not using this facility due to misconception and lack of
information. These customers should be targeted by the bank and must be
convinced to use the same.

various internet banking channel. Though e- banking provides a full gamut of
various services. Customer should be made aware of these services and must

efficient customer care service.
