Schedule of Banks (1.1)

Table 1.1

Source:-www.hdfc.comAt present there are (27) Public Sector Banks, about (30) Private Sector Banks, (40) Foreign Banks and (196) RRBs, Urban Co-Operative Banks (52), State Co-Operative bank

(16), Nationalized Banks (19), State Bank of India Associates (8), there are about 68,000 branches that exist across country.RBI as a Regulatory Body:

The central bank of the country is the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). It was established in April 1935 with a share capital of Rs. 5crores on the basis of the recommendations of the Hilton Young Commission. The share capital was divided into shares of Rs. 100 each fully paid which was entirely owned by private shareholders in the beginning. The Government held shares of nominal value of Rs. 220,000. Reserve Bank of India was nationalized in the year 1949. The Bank was constituted for the need of following:

To regulate the issue of banknotes.

To maintain reserves with a view to securing monetary stability.

To operate the credit and currency system of the country to its advantage.

Functions of Reserve Bank of India:-The Reserve Bank of India Act of 1934 entrust all the important functions of a central bank the Reserve Bank of India.

Bank of Issue:-

Under Section 22 of the Reserve Bank of India Act, the Bank has the sole right to issue bank notes of all denominations. The distribution of one rupee notes and coins and small coins all over the country is undertaken by the Reserve Bank as agent of the Government. The Reserve Bank has a separate Issue Department which is entrusted with the issue of currency notes. Banker to Government:-The second important function of the Reserve Bank of India is to act as Government banker, agent and adviser. The Reserve Bank is agent of Central Government and of all State Governments in India.

Bankers' Bank and Lender of the Last Resort:-The Reserve Bank of India acts as the bankers' bank. According to the provisions of the Banking Companies Act of 1949, every scheduled bank was required to maintain with the Reserve Bank a cash balance equivalent to 5% of its demand liabilities and 2 per cent of its time liabilities in India. By an amendment of 1962, the distinction between demand and time liabilities was abolished and banks have been asked to keep cash reserves equal to 3 per cent of their aggregate deposit liabilities. The minimum cash requirements can be changed by the Reserve Bank of India. The Scheduled banks can borrow from the Reserve Bank of India on the basis of eligible securities or get financial accommodation in times of need or stringency by rediscounting bills of exchange. Since commercial banks can always expect the Reserve Bank of India to come to their help in times of banking crisis the Reserve Bank becomes not only the banker's bank but also the lender of the last resort. Controller of Credit:-The Reserve Bank of India is the controller of credit i.e. it has the power to influence the volume of credit created by banks in India. It can do so through changing the Bank rate or through open market operations. According to the Banking Regulation Act of 1949, the Reserve Bank of India can ask any particular bank or the whole banking system not to lend to particular groups or persons on the basis of certain types of securities. Since 1956, selective controls of credit are increasingly being used by the Reserve Bank. The Reserve Bank of India is armed with many more powers to control the Indian money market. Every bank has to get a license from the Reserve Bank of India to do banking business within India, the license can be cancelled by the Reserve Bank of certain stipulated conditions are not fulfilled. Every bank will have to get the permission of the Reserve Bank before it can open a new branch. Each scheduled bank must send a weekly return to the Reserve Bank showing, in detail, its assets and liabilities. This power of the Bank to call for information is also intended to give it effective control of the credit system. The Reserve Bank has also the power to inspect the accounts of any commercial bank. As supreme banking authority in the country, the Reserve Bank of India, therefore, has the following powers:

(a) It holds the cash reserves of all the scheduled banks.

(b) It controls the credit operations of banks through quantitative and qualitative controls.

(c) It controls the banking system through the system of licensing, inspection and calling for information.

(d) It acts as the lender of the last resort by providing rediscount facilities to scheduled banks.

Supervisory functions:-In addition to its traditional central banking functions, the Reserve bank has certain non-monetary functions of the nature of supervision of banks and promotion of sound banking in India. The Reserve Bank Act, 1934, and the Banking Regulation Act, 1949 have given the RBI wide powers of supervision and control over commercial and co-operative banks, relating to licensing and establishments, branch expansion, liquidity of their assets, management and methods of working, amalgamation, reconstruction, and liquidation. The RBI is authorized to carry out periodical inspections of the banks and to call for returns and necessary information from them.

Promotional functions:-With economic growth assuming a new urgency since Independence, the range of the Reserve Bank's functions has steadily widened. The Bank now performs variety of developmental and promotional functions, which, at one time, were regarded as outside the normal scope of central banking. The Reserve Bank was asked to promote banking habit, extend banking facilities to rural and semi-urban areas, and establish and promote new specialized Financing agencies.

Classification of RBIs functions:-The monetary functions also known as the central banking functions of the RBI are related to control and regulation of money and credit, i.e., issue of currency, control of bank credit, control of foreign exchange operations, banker to the Government and to the money market. Monetary functions of the RBI are significant as they control and regulate the volume of money and credit in the country.

To know the level of interest of customer regarding the different schemes of bank. To know the preference of customer regarding the extra services.

To know the problems of customer regarding bank.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

RESEARCH METHODOLOGYDEFINATION

"Research comprises, defining an redefining, formulating hypothesis or suggested solutions, collecting, organizing, evaluating data, making deductions and reaching conclusions and at last carefully testing the conclusions to determine whether they fit the formulating hypothesis"

"CUFFORD WOODY"

RESEARCH PROBLEM

Here, the research is undertaken to know the level of customer satisfaction. Since the customer is the King so his needs must be given the first priority. That's why customer satisfaction has been chosen as a research problem.

RESEARCH DESIGNS

Personal interview technique was used to conduct the survey. The usual approach was to identify the potential respondent and his cooperation in answering the list of predetermined questions. Regarding the customer survey, I personally sit with our dealing assistant in the bank to look after the whole working procedure of the deposit accounts / collected relevant information regarding the queries and problems of customers of bank.

Personal interview technique also provided information such as customer knowledge, intentions about the various deposits and demographic characteristics such as attitude, opinion and lifestyle of the people.SOURCES OF DATA PRIMARY DATA

SECONDARY DATA

Primary Data All the collection of primary data was done in the personal presence to ensure the completeness of the process. QUESTIONNIARE METHOD:

The communication method ,in effect ,is the method of designing questionnaire with a view to collect the requisite information. The questionnaires can be classified into main four types.1. structured non distinguished

2. structured distinguished

3. Non structured-Non distinguished

4. Non Structured distinguishedA structured questionnaire is a formal list of questions framed so as to get the facts. The in reviewer asks the questions strictly in accordance with a pre arranged order. This classification is based on whether the object or purpose of the survey is revealed to the respondent .Most Marketing Research studies use this type of questionnaire, in the case of a structured

-distinguished Questionniare, the researcher does not disclose the object of the survey. He may not be objective in giving the necessary information and, as such its purpose may be defeat. He is therefore very particular not to divulge the purpose of the investigation

A non-structured questionnaire is one in which the questions are not structured and the order in which they are to be asked from the respondent is left entirely to the researcher. He asks

The questions in the manner in which he deems fit in a particular situation .In fact; he may only have certain main points on which he may develop the question at the time of actual interview. As it will be seen, a non- structured questionnaire id devoid of rigidity and allows considerable freedom to the researcher in choosing the order as well as the specific contents of questions .Normally, unstructured questionnaires are used in explanatory research when some respondents are contacted. It is only subsequently, on the basis of answers received; that a well structured questionnaire is hand only after the explanatory research. Questionniare of this type can be split into two types. when the purpose of the enquiry is disclosed to the respondent, the questionnaire are known as non-structured and non- distinguished while in other cases, the questionnaire are classified as non-structured and disguised questionnaires.Types of Questions

An important aspect in the designing of a questionnaire is to decide which type of questions is to be used. Questions can be classified in various ways. One way of classification is as follows.

Open-ended question.

Dichotomous Question.

Multiple-Choice Questions.Secondary Data The secondary source of information was obtained from the annual reports of the banks, their website, manual of instructions on deposits accounts and brouchers as well. Sources of secondary dataSecondary data can be obtained internally, i.e within the firm. Or externally. i.e from one or more outside agencies.

Internal source of secondary dataInternal source can be classified under four broad categories- accounting records. Sales force reports, miscellaneous report and internal experts.External source of secondary Data:

The external secondary data do not originate in the firm and are obtained from outside sources. Secondary data can be collected from the originating sources or from secondary sources.Generally the originating source of secondary data should be preferred on account of several reasons. First the originating source is more likely to explain the object and procedure of data collection. Government Publications

The Bank should make some efforts to improving good relationship with customer.

The bank makesits procedures less time consuming.

Contract Sales Executive (CSE) should be trained to explain the product features and its value added services to make customers product selection convenient. The bank should make effort to aware the customers about their all the extra services. Contract Sales Executive (CSE) should recommend right product to the right customer so as to ensure a high degree of satisfaction among the customer.

The bank needs to make people aware about their products and the basic benefits they can derive out of it. And also the differential features of its savings account as compared to other banks.70% of the people did not even know about the concept, benefits and features of its saving accounts.

The bank should also target small business unit for whom maintenance of the AQB is not a problem as this segment is not much penetrated.

Though the bank offers free doorstep banking once a day this fact is also not known to many customers or they still do not trust this service whatever the reason the bank can popularize this service to gain an edge over nationalized banks and Co-operative Banks.

The bank should enhance their services according to the needs of the customer.LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDYIt is said, Nothing is perfect and if the quite is true, I am sure that there would be few shortcoming in this project also. Sincere efforts have been made to eliminate discrepancies as far as possible but few would have reminded due to limitations of the study. These are: The research was carried outin a short period.

Limited sample size.

The information given by the respondent might be biased some of them might not be interested to given correct information.

Some of the respondents of thesurvey were unwilling to share information.CONCLUSIONAt the end I would like to conclude that The Indian banking market is growing at an astonishing rate, with Assets expected to reach US$1 trillion by 2010. HDFC bank had a network of 1,142 branches And 3,295 automated teller machines in 528 cities in India. The majority of customers are satisfied. But the bank should target on the rest of the customers who are not satisfied. The customers are aware about the banks services but the Bankshould try to create more awareness among people. HDFC Bank should lay more stress on advertisement, both in print as well as in other media for this purpose. Number of formalities should reduce, as customer feels irritated with lots of formalities and it will save the time of customer and Bank also. BIBLIOGRAPHY Financial Accounting By Jain &Narang
