Without a sound and effective banking system in India it cannot have a healthy economy.
The banking system of India should not only be hassle free but it should be able to meet
new challenges posed by the technology and any other external and internal factors. For
the past three decades Indias banking system has several outstanding achievements to its
credit. The most exciting is its extensive research. It is no longer confirmed to only
metropolitans, or cosmopolitans in India. Infact banking system has reached even to the
remote corners of the country. This is the main reason of the Indias growth process .The
government regular policy of Indian bank since 1969 has paid rich dividends.
With the nationalization of 14 major private banks in India. Not long ago, an account
holder had to wait for hours at the bank counters for getting a draft or for withdrawing his
own money. Today he has a choice. Gone are the days when the most efficient bank
transferred money from one branch to other in two days. Now it is simple as instant
messaging or dials a pizza. Money has become the order of the day. The first bank of
India, through conservative, was established in 1786. Form 1786 till today, the journey of
Indian banking system can be can be segregated into three distinct phases. They are as
mentioned below:
Early phase from 1786-1969 of Indian Banks. Nationalization of Indian Banks and upto 1991 prior to Indian banking sector
reforms .
New phase of Indian banking system with the advent of Indian financial and
banking sector reforms after 1991.

To make this write-up more explanatory, I prefix the scenario as Phase I, Phase II, Phase
III .
Phase I
The General Bank of India was set up in the year 1786. Next come bank of Hindustan
and Bengal bank. The East India Company established Bank of Bengal (1809), Bank of
Bombay(1840) and Bank of Madras(1843) as independent units and called it Presidency
Banks. These three banks were amalgamated in 1920 and Imperial bank of India was
established which started as private shareholders banks, mostly European shareholders.
In 1865 Allahabad bank was established and first time exclusively by Indians Bank was
Between 1906-1913 Bank of India, Central Bank Of India, Bank Of Baroda, Canara
Bank, Indian Bank and Bank Of Mysore were set up. Syndicate bank was set up in 1925
in Udipi. Reserve Bank of India was set up in 1935.
During the I phase growth was very slow and banks also experienced periodic failures
between 1913-1948. There were approximately 1100 banks, mostly small.
To streamline the functioning and activities of Commercial banks, the government of
India came up with the Banking Companies Act, 1949 which was later changed to theBanking Regulation Act 1949 as per amending act of 1965(Act no. 23 of 1965). Reserve
Bank of India was vested with extensive powers for the supervision of banking in India
as the Central Banking Authority. During those days public has lesser confidence in
banks. As an after month deposit mobilization was slow.
Abreast of it the saving bank facility provided by the postal department was
comparatively safer. Moreover, funds were largely given to traders.

Phase II
The government took major steps in the Indian Banking Sector Reform after
Independence. In 1955, It nationalized Imperial bank Of India with extensive banking
facilities on large scale especially in rural and semi-urban areas. It formed State Bank Of
India to act as the principal agent of RBI and to handle banking transactions of the Union
and State Governments all over the country. Seven banks forming the subsidiary of State
Bank of India was nationalized in 1960 on 19 th July, 1969, major process of
nationalization was carried out. It was the effort of Prime Minister Of India Mrs. Indira
Gandhi. 14 major commercial banks in the country were nationalized. Second phase of
Nationalization Indian Banking Sector was carried out in1980 by seven more banks. This
step brought 80% of the banking segment in India under government ownership. The
following are the steps taken by Government of India to regulate banking institutions in
the country:
1949 : Enactment of Banking Regulation Act
1955 : Nationalization of State Bank of India
1959 : Nationalization of SBI subsidiaries
1961 : Insurance cover extended to deposits
1969 : Nationalization of 14 major banks
1971 : Creation of credit guarantee corporation
1975 : Creation of Regional Rural Banks
1980 : Nationalization of 7 banks with deposits over 200 crore
After the nationalization of Banks, the branches of the public sector bank India rose
to approximately to 800% and deposits and advances took a huge jump by 11000%.
Banking in the sunshine of government ownership gave the public implicit faith and
immense confidence about the sustainability of these institutions.

Phase III
This phase has introduced many more products and facilities in the banking sector in
its reforms and measure. In 1991 under the chairmanship of M Narasimham a
committee was set up by his name which worked for the liberalization of banking
practices. The country is flooded with foreign banks and their ATM stations. Efforts
are being put to give a satisfactory service to customers. Phone banking and Net
banking is introduced. The entire system became more convenient and swift. Time
is given more importance than money. The financial system of India has shown a
great deal of resilience. It is sheltered from any crisis triggered by any external
macroeconomic shock as other East Asian Countries suffered. This is all due to a
flexible exchange rate regime, the foreign reserves are high, the capital account is
not yet fully convertible and banks and their customers have limited foreign
exchange exposure

become more easy and convenient. The past days are witness to hour wait before

With the advancement of technology, the major banks in public and private sector has
facilitated their customer to open bank account online. Bank banks as well as time taken
in opening an account online is registered through a PC with an internet connection. The
advent of bank account online has saved both the cost of operations for banks as well as
time taken in opening an account.
Plastic MoneyCredit card in India are gaining grounds. A no of banks in India are encouraging people
to use credit card. The concept of credit card was used in 1950 with the launch of charge
cards in USA by dinner clubs and American Express. Credit card however became more
popular with use of magnetic strip in 1970. Credit card in India became popular with the
introduction of foreign banks in the country. Credit cards are the financial instruments,
which can be used more than once to borrow money or buy products or services on
credit. Basically banks, retail stores and other business issue these.
LOANBanks in India with the way of development has become easy to apply in loan market.
The following loans are given by almost all the banks in the country:

In personal loan one can get sanctioned loan amount between 25,000-10,00,000
depending on the profile of the person applying for the loan.
SBI, ICICI, HDFC, are some of the leading banks which deal in personal loans.
Almost all the banks have jumped into the market of car loan which is also sometimes
termed as the auto loan. It is one of the fast moving financial products of the banks. Car
loan/Auto loan are sanctioned to the extent of 85% on the ex-showroom price of the car
with some simple paper works and a small amount of processing fee.
Loan against share is very easy to get because liquid guarantee is involved in it.
Home loan is the latest craze in the banking sector with the development of infrastructure. Now people are moving to the township outside the city.
More number of townships are coming up to meet the demand for House for All The
RBI has also liberalized the interest rates of home loan in order to match the repayment
capability of even middle class people. Almost all the banks are dealing in home loan.
Again SBI, ICICI, HDFC, HSBC are leading.
The education loan rather to be termed as a student loan is a good banking product for the
mass. Students with certain academic brilliance, studying at recognized
College/Universities in India and Abroad are generally given education loan/student loan
so as to meet the expenses of tuition fee/ maintenance fee/ books and other equipments.
Money TransferBeside lending and depositing money, banks also carry money from one corner of the
globe to another. This act of bank is known as transfer of money. This activity is termed
as remittance business. Banks generally issue Demand Drafts, Bankers Cheque, Money
order or other such instruments for transferring the money. This is a type of Telegraphic
Transfer or Tele Cash Order. It has only a couple of years that banks have jumped into
the money transfer business in India. The International money transfer market grew 9.3%
from 2003-2004 that is from US$213 billion to US$233 billion in 2004. Economist say
16

that market of money transfer will further grow at a cumulative 12.1% average growth
rate through 2009.
Future Of Banking In IndiaA 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 has witnessed series of reforms in the past like deregulation
of interest rates, dilution of government stake in PSBs and increased participation of
private sector banks. It has also undergone rapid changes, reflecting a number of
underlying developments. This trend has created new competitive threats as well as new
opportunities. This paper aims to foresee major future banking trends, based on these pastand current movements in the market. Given the competitive market the banking will
(and to a great extent already has)become a process of choice and convenience.
The future of banking will be in terms of integration. This is already becoming reality
with new-age banks such as Yes bank and other too adopting a single PIN. Geography
will no longer be an inhibitor. Technology will prove to be a differentiator between short-
term but the dynamic environment will soon lead to its saturation and what will
ultimately be the key to success will be the better relationship management

INDIAN BANKING INDUSTRYThe Indian banking market is growing at an astonishing rate, with Assets expected to
reach US$1 trillion by 2010. An expanding economy, middle class, and technological
innovations are all contributing to this growth.
The countrys middle class accounts for over 320 million People. In correlation with
the growth of the economy, rising income levels, increased standard of living, and
affordability of banking products are promising factors for continued expansion.
The Indian banking market is growing at an astonishing rate, with Assets expected toreach US$1 trillion by 2010. An expanding economy, middle class, and technological
innovations are all contributing to this growth.
The Indian banking Industry is in the middle of an IT revolution, Focusing on the
expansion of retail and rural banking. Players are becoming increasingly customer -
centric in their approach, which has resulted in innovative methods of offering new
banking products and services. Banks are now realizing the importance of being
a big player and are beginning to focus their attention on mergers and acquisitions
to take advantage of economies of scale and/or comply with Basel II

regulation.Indian banking industry assets are expected to reach US$1 trillion by 2010
and are poised to receive a greater infusion of foreign capital, says Prathima Rajan ,
analyst in Celent's banking group and author of the report. The banking industry should
focus on having a small number of large players that can compete globally rather than
having a large number of fragmented players."
RISK MANAGEMENT
The future of banking will undoubtedly rest on risk management dynamics.
Only those banks that have efficient risk management system will survive in
the market in the long run. The effective management of credit risk is a
critical component of comprehensive risk management essential for long-
term success of a banking institution. Although capital serves the purpose of
meeting unexpected losses, capital is not a substitute for inadequate
decontrol or risk management systems. Coming years will witness banksstriving to create sound internal control or risk management processes. With
the focus on regulation and risk management in the Basel II frame work
gaining prominence, the post-Basel II era will belong to the banks that manage
their risks effectively. The banks with proper risk management systems would
not only gain competitive advantage byway of lower regulatory capital charge,
but would also add value to the shareholders and other stakeholders by
properly pricing their services, adequate provisioning and maintaining a robust
financial structure. The future belongs to bigger banks alone, as well as to
those which have minimized their risks considerably.

Overview
If one were to say that the future banking in India is bright, it would be a gross
understatement. With the growing statement and convergence of services the
customers(You and I) stand only to benefit more to say the least. At the same time
emergence of a multitude of a complex financial instrument is foreseen in the near
future(the trend is visible in the current scenario too)which is bound to confuse the
customer more than ever unless she spends hours(maybe days) to understand the same.
Hence I see growing trends towards the importance of relationship managers The
success(and failure) of any bank would depend upon not only on tapping the untapped
customers base (from other departments of same bank, customers of similar related
institutions, or those of the competitors) but also on the effectiveness in retaining the
existing base. India has witness to see a change in the way banking is done in the past
more than two decades. Since 1991 the Reserve Bank Of India(RBI) took steps to reform
the Indian Banking system at a measured pace so that growth could be achieved without
exposure to any macro-environment and systematic risks.
Some of these initiatives were deregulation of interest rates, dilution of the government
stake in Public Sector Banks(PSBs), guidelines being issued for risk management , asset
classification and provisioning. Technology has made tremendous impact in banking.
Anywhere banking and Anytime Banking have become a reality. The financial sector
now operates in a more competitive environment than before and intermediaries
relatively large volume of integration financial flows. In the wake of greater financial
deregulation and global financial integration, the biggest challenge before the regulators
is of avoiding instant ability in the financial system.

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
Customer satisfaction refers to the extent to which customers are happy with the products
and services provided by the business. Customer satisfaction level can be measured using
survey techniques and questionnaires.
Definitions:
Customer satisfaction is equivalent to making sure that product and service performance
meets customer satisfaction.
Customer satisfaction is the perception of the customers that the outcome of the business
transaction is equal to or greater than his/her expectation.
Customer satisfaction occurs when acquisition of products/ service provides a minimum
negative departure from expectations when compared with other acquisition.
Gaining high level of customer satisfaction is very important to a business because
satisfying customers are more likely to be loyal and to make repeat orders and to use
wide range of services offered by a business. There are many factors which lead in high
level of customer satisfaction including products and services which are customer
focused and hence provides high level of value for money .
What is clear about customer satisfaction is that customers are more likely to appreciate
the goods and services that they buy if they are made to feel special. This occurs when
32

33/69
they feel that the products and services that they buy have been especially produced for
them or for people like them.
Benefits of customer satisfaction
The benefits of customer satisfaction and support is increasingly becoming a vital
business issue as organization realize the benefit of customer relationship
Management(CRM) for providing effective customer service. Professionals working
within customer focused business or those running call centre or help desks need to keepinformed about the latest customer satisfaction techniques for running a valuable
customer service function. From small customer service departments to large call centers
the importance of developing a valued relationship with customer using CRM is essential
to support customer and long term business growth.
What do customers want??
Before we begin to create tools to measure the level of satisfaction, it is important to
develop a clear understanding of what exactly the customer wants. We need to know
what are customers expects from the products and services we provide. Customer
expectations have 2 types:
Expressed
Implied
Expressed
Customers expectations are those requirements that are written down in the contact and
agreed upon by both parties. For eg: a product specification and delivery requirements,
suppliers performance against these requirements in most of the items are directly
measurable.
33
-
7/28/2019 customer Satisfaction Icici
34/69
Implied
Customer expectations are not written or spoken but are the ones the customer would
expect the supplier to meet never the less. For eg: a customer would expect the service
representative who calls on him to be knowledgeable and competent to solve a problem
on the spot. There are many reasons why customer expectations are likely to change
overtime. Process improvements, advent of new technology, changes in customer
priorities, improved quality of service provided by competitors are just a few examples.
The customer is always right. Supplier job is to provide the customer what he/she wants,
when he/she wants it. Customer satisfaction is customers perception that a supplier has
met or exceeded their expectations.
What constitutes satisfaction
We cannot create customer satisfaction just by meeting customer requirements fully
because these have to be met in any case however falling short is certain to create
dissatisfaction.
Major attributes of customer satisfaction in banking industry can be summarized as
follows:
Product quality Premium outflow
Return on investment
Services
Responsiveness and ability to resolve complains and reject reports
Overall communication accessibility and attitude
What are the tools
Customer expectations can be identified using various methods such as:
Periodic contract reviews
Market research
34
-
7/28/2019 customer Satisfaction Icici
35/69
Telephonic interview
Personal visits
Warranty records
Informal discussion Satisfaction survey
Depending upon the customer base and available resources, we can choose a method that
is most effective in measuring the customers perceptions.
The purpose of the exercise is to identify the priorities for improvements. We must
develop a method or combination of methods that help to continually improve service.
Customer satisfaction surveys
Formal survey has emerged as by far the best method of periodically the customer
satisfaction. The surveys are not marketing tools but an information gaining tool.
Enough homework needs to be done before embarking on the actual survey.
This includes:
Designing objective survey
Designing survey approach
Develop questionnaires
Administer survey (e-mail, telephone or post)
Method of compiling data and analyzing the findings
There is no point in asking irrelevant questions on a customer satisfaction questionnaire.The basic purpose is to find out what we are doing right or wrong.
Where is the scope of improvement, where do we stand vis--vis other suppliers. How
can we serve the customer better?
A customer satisfaction measurement survey should at least identify the following
objectives:
35
-
7/28/2019 customer Satisfaction Icici
36/69
Importance to customers (customers priorities)
Customers perception of supplier performance
Your performance relative to customer priorities Priorities for improvement
Survey forms should be easy to fill out with minimum amount of time and efforts on
customers part. They should be designed to actively encourage the customer to complete
the questions. Yet they must provide accurate data should also be sufficiently reliable for
management decision making. This can be achieved by incorporating objective type
questions where customer has to rate on scale of say1 to 10. For repeated surveys, you
could provide the rating that was previously accorded by the customer. This works
like a reference point for the customer.
Space should always be provided for the customers own opinions this enables them to
state any additional requirements or report any shortcomings that are not covered by
the objective questions.
Normally, we deal various personnel at various levels in the customers organization the buyer, user, receiving inspector, finance and purchase person etc. surveying a number
of respondents for each customer gives a complete perspective of customer satisfaction. It
may be necessary to device a different questionnaire for each of them. Respondents must
be provided a way to express the importance they attach to various survey parameters.
Respondents should be asked to give a weighting factor, again on a rating scale of say, 1
to10, for each requirement. This gives a better indication of relative importance of each
parameter towards overall customer satisfaction and makes it easier for suppliers to
prioritize their action plans by comparing the performance rating (scores) with
importance rating(weighing).

CONSUMER RESEARCH IN DIFFERENT
DISCIPLINES
A considerable body of literature exists on consumption, consumer behavior
and consumer decision making process.
CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROCESS
Most of the consumer research is focused on adopter categories, habits,
attitude and intentions rather that on actually measuring the satisfaction level
with the service.
The paramount goal of marketing is to understand the customer and influence
the buying behaviour.
The process can be depicted as follows:-
Need recognition-realization of the difference between the desired and
the current situation that serves as a trigger for the entire process.
Search for information
Pre purchase alternative evaluation
37

42/69
To know the response, the researcher used questionnaire method. It has been designed
as a primary research instrument. Questionnaires were distributed to respondents and
they were asked to answer the questions given in the questionnaire.
The questionnaires were used as an instrumentation technique, because it is an
important method of data collection. The success of the questionnaire method in
collecting the information depends largely on proper drafting. So in the present study
quest ions were arranged and interconnected logical ly. The structured
questionnaire will reduce both interviewers and interpreters bias. Further, coding
and analysis was done for each questions response to reach into findings,
suggestions and finally to the conclusion about the topic.
TYPES OF DATA
Every decision poses unique needs for information, and relevant strategies can
be developed based on the information gathered through research. Research is the
systematic objective and exhaustive search for and study of facts relevant to the problem.
Research design means the framework of study that leads to the collection and analysis of
data. It is a conceptual structure with in which research is conducted. It facilitates smooth
sailing of various research operations to make the research as effective as possible.
PRIMARY DATA
42
-
7/28/2019 customer Satisfaction Icici
43/69
Primary data are those collected by the investigator himself for the first time and thus
they are original in character, they are collected for a particular purpose. A well-
structured questionnaire was personally administrated to the selected sample to collect
the primary data.
SECONDARY DATA
Secondary data are those, which have already been collected by some other persons for
their purpose and published. Secondary data are usually in the shape of finished products.
Two types of secondary data were collected for the preparation of the project work:
Internal Data
It was generated from companys brochures
External Data,
On the other hand, was generated from magazines, research books and internet
(websites).
SAMPLING PLAN
43

7/28/2019 customer Satisfaction Icici
44/69
DESCRIPTIVE STUDY
A descriptive study tries to discover answers to the questions who, whatwhen, where, and, sometimes, how. The researcher attempts to describe or define
a subject, often by creating a profile of a group of problems, people, or events. Such
studies may involve the collection of data and the creation of a distribution of the number
of times the researcher observes a single event or characteristic (the research variable), or
they may involve relating the interaction of two or more variables. Organizations that
maintain databases of their employees, customers, and suppliers already have significant
data to conduct descriptive studies using internal information. Yet many firms that have
such data files do not maintain them regularly for the decision-making insight they might
provide.
This descriptive study is popular in business research because of its versatility across
disciplines. In for-profit, not-for-profit and profit and government organizations,
descriptive investigations have a broad appeal to the administrator and policy
analyst for planning, monitoring, and evaluating. In this context, how questions address
issues such as quantity, cost, efficiency, effectiveness, and adequacy. Descriptive studiesmay or may not have the potential for drawing powerful inferences. A descriptive study,
however, does not explain why an event has occurred or why the variables interact the
way they do.
SAMPLE METHOD
44
-
7/28/2019 customer Satisfaction Icici
45/69
Convenience sampling method is used for the survey of this project. It is a non-
probability sample. This is the least reliable design but normally the cheapest and easiest
to conduct . In this method Researcher have the freedom to choose whomever they find,
thus the name convenience. Example includes informal pools of friends and
neighbors people responding to a newspapers invitation for readers to state their position
on some public issue.
