    INTRODUCTION OF RESEARCH

    Indias banking sector is growing at a fast pace and India has become one ofthe most preferred banking destinations in the world. The reasons arenumerous: the economy is growing at a rate of 8%, Bank credit is growing at

    30% per annum and there is an ever-expanding middle class of between 250and 300 million people (larger than the population of the US) in need offinancial services. Also in todays world no one can survive without banks

    and banking transactions. Also people in Mumbai believe in time is moneymantra. So to ease their banking transactions E- banking facilities are a

    great option. So with this thought researchers have thought to choose the

    popularity of E- Banking as their topic for the research.

    Traditionally banks have been in the forefront of harnessing technology toimprove their products, services and efficiency. But over a period of time thetechnology has increased rapidly in India and in metro cities like Mumbai.

    Internet is increasingly used by banks as a channel for receiving instructionsfrom their customers and delivering their information, products and services

    to their customers. This form of banking is generally referred to as E-Banking. Thus to actually know the popularity of E- Banking facilities and to

    know the scope and future prospects of E- Banking, researchers had carrieda detailed Qualitative research about the same. Also majority of the E-Banking users include the working class, as it helps them in their businesstransactions and also most importantly saves their valuable time. The

    research also includes educated class of the society because it requires littleknowledge about the computers and internet, so researchers have chosen

    their target group as educated/ working class.

    The following are the different E-banking facilities which have been focusedupon by the researcher for the purpose of research. There are about 15-20

    E-banking facilities out of which the following have been chosen.

    Importance of the research

    The world is changing at a staggering rate and technology is consideredto be the key driver for these changes around us. An analysis of technology

    and its uses show that it has permeated in almost every aspect of our life.Many activities are handled electronically due the acceptance of information

    technology at home as well as at workplace. Internet can be seen as a trulyglobal phenomenon that has made time and distance irrelevant to many

    transactions. The transformation from the traditional banking towards e-banking has been a leap' change.

    A research study is the complete in-depth analysis on a specific area. Sohere we selected the topic as a research ofpopularity of e-banking servicesamong the educated, working class. It is considered extremely importantaspect or service in banking industry.

    1. This research study can be very useful in analyzing the market anddemand for the e-banking products.

    2. Research study can also give food for thought to the new researchers.

    3. Moreover, from educational perspective, a research study can enhancethe critical and analytical thinking of the researchers AND thereforecan enhance the knowledge of the researcher.

    Limitations Of Research

    The topic of research is the popularity of E-banking facilities among the

    educated, working class.

    Mumbai is a vast city with a huge population of educated and employed

    people. The number of people using E-Banking facilities in the metro is

    enormous. Keeping that in mind, the researcher had various limitations whileconducting the research.

    1. Time constraint: - Each and every research process had to be

    completed accurately and efficiently within the given time frame.

    2. Economical constraints: - the sample size of the researchers is 115

    people and the type of sampling methodology undertaken by the

    researchers is non-probability convenience sampling. The reason being

    economical constraints. It was not possible for the researchers to do

    probability sampling and do random selection of sample since time and

    money were scarce.

    3. The participants comprised a small sample, which can be generalized

    across the sector.

    4. First time: - Also the researchers were undertaking such a research for

    the 1st time in its life. So the final research may have certain mistakes

    or loopholes.

    5. However the researchers have tried to make the research report as

    authentic as possible.

    LITERATURE REVIEW

    Diagram 3

    23 | P a g e

  • 8/7/2019 final rmb report

    24/40

    Table 3

    From above diagram we can interpret that majority of people believes that e-banking facilities are cost saving and there are people according to whom

    these electronic facilities are costly and not at economical rate. Becausethere are fewer buildings to maintain, and less involvement by salariedemployees, there is a much lower overhead with online banks. Thesesavings allow them to offer higher interest rates on savings accounts and

    lower lending rates and service charges. Even traditional brick and mortarbanks offer better deals such as free bill paying services to encourage their

    customers to do their banking online.

    Q.4 DO YOU THINK THAT THESE FACILITIES ARE TIME SAVING WITHRESPECT TO REDUCED BANK VISITS?

    immediate moments. Only 1 person out of 115 is disagreeing with this timesaving factor. Internet banking offers a great deal more convenience than

    you could get from a conventional bank. You aren't bound by 'banker's hours'and you don't have to go there physically in your car. Time is not wasted

    when you have work to do because you can do your office's banking withoutleaving the office. No matter where you are or what time it is, you can easily

    manage your money.

    E-banking:-

    1. It saves a lot of time. Accounts can be accessed from anywhere with

    the help of the World Wide Web.

    2. E-banking transactions are much cheaper than branch transactions.

    30 | P a g e

    3. This could turn yesterdays competitive advantage - a large branch

    network - into a comparative disadvantage, allowing e-banks to

    undercut bricks-and-mortar banks.

    4. 24 hours availability.

    5. Can be used to access any bank in the world. And you can do

    Electronic fund transfer from one account to another of the same or

    any another bank. Customers can send money anywhere in India.

    6. Much more accessible, affordable, efficient, simple and time-saving as

    compared to going to the branch to carry out transaction.

    7. Particularly helping for booking online rail, air, cinema tickets in

    India.

    8. Also for doing shopping at the mall and online shopping.

    9. Bill payment service

    You can pay electricity, telephone bills, mobile phone, credit card and

    insurance premium bills as each bank has tie-ups with various utility

    companies, service providers and insurance companies, across the

    country.

    10. Investing through Internet banking

    the RBI since the infrastructure cost of setting an ATM is very high and

    the number of people actually using the ATM is comparatively very

    low. The customer flow is very low. Hence to reduce the operational

    cost of the banks the RBI undertook this measure.

    Q9) SUGGESTIONS FOR E BANKING

    The respondents have put forward certain suggestions which have been

    summarized into a more organized form by the researcher:-

    1.) The number ofATM outlets should be increased for increased usage

    and they should be free from technical failures.

    32 | P a g e

    33/40

    2.) All service charges should be removed from all the facilities.

    Eg. When ATM card of a particular bank is used at any other banks

    ATM outlet, extra charges are been deducted.

    3.) Banks should publicize their e- banking facilities stating theiradvantages to create more awareness among people about these

    facilities.

    4.) Schemes should be introduced for housewives and middle class to

    motivate them to use these facilities.

    5.) The technology should be made simpler, user- friendlyand easily

    accessible.

    6.) In credit card facility, the credit period should be extended beyond

    45 days in order to enhance usage.

    7.) Each and every e banking consumer should get an e banking

    notification through SMS/ E- mail, on carrying out a transaction

    using an e- banking facility so that they can have a record of their

    transactions.

    8.) Efforts should be made to decrease the technical problems and

    security issues regarding the e banking facilities.

    9.) Scope of credit card can be improved dramatically. ONLINE

    SHOPPING ON e-bay etc can be made more popular.

    CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

    The research showed that the popularity of e-banking facilities has gradually

    increased over the years .this shows that our null hypothesis: E Banking

    facilities are popular amongst the educated / working class proves to be

    true.

    In todays fast moving life people want all the facilities at their maximum

    convenience which is provided by the e-banking facilities and this is one of

    the reasons for the growing popularity of e-banking facilities. Still a large

    proportion of people today refrain themselves from using these facilities due

    to the security reasons or their familiarity with personal banking. This means

    that the customers usually perceive in conducting transactions electronically

    and particularly if the transactions involve money...The research shows that

    a few of them have encountered mishaps while using the e-banking

    products.

    From the research the researchers can also conclude that the ATM facility

    provided by the e-banking is the most popular among all categories of

    products. Also a few other products such as travelers cheque and mobilebanking are yet to emerge as popular. The research also shows that most of

    the people using these facilities view it as time saving and cost saving. A

    large part of the population is willing to experiment with a few more e-

    banking facilities apart from which they are using. This shows that with the

    passage of time people are readily accepting technology. This shows that the

    future scenario of the electronic banking is bright and will slowly and steadily

    replace a large proportion of people using personal banking facilities.

    If proper training is given to customer by the bank employs to open an

    account will be beneficial secondly the website should be made friendlier

    from where the first time customers can directly make and access their

    accounts

    The following are the recommendations for increasing the use and popularity

    of e-banking facilities:

    Give proper training to customers for using i-banking

    Create a trust in mind of customers towards security of their accounts

    Provide a platform from where the customers can access different

    accounts at single time without extra charge.

    Make their sites more users friendly.

    Customers should be motivated to use I banking facilities more.
