For this research Non- Probability Convenience Sampling has been used because
time limit for the completion of the work is limited and also managers and
employees were not available all the time.
Area of Study- Ghaziabad
Duration- 3 months
Designing own and new financial products is very costly and time consuming
for the bank.
Customers now-a-days prefer net banking to branch banking. The banks that
are slow in introducing technology-based products, are finding it difficult to
retain the customers who wish to opt for net banking..
80% of respondents like the branch ambience & layout & find it friendly.
80% of respondents said branch was clean and well maintained.
74% of respondent responded that Branch personnel had been very helpful
and courteous.
86% of respondent that branch personnel are aware of Product and Services
and responded to your queries.
As 10% customer response is not good for the clarification of the queries
response towards them so bank personnel should improve this issue because
customer is a source through which business can be increase and satisfy
customers is a source to create more customers, with reference to table no.4
As it is only 10% respondent said that sometime there was a error in the
transaction happened so to avoid these kinds of errors should be avoided
because it is unnecessarily results in wastage of time for both staff members
and service rendered, reference to table no. 9
With reference to table. 10, YES bank should look into the feedback provided
by customer and takes necessary action wherever required.
With reference to table no. 12, bank should focus on Instant FD facility &E-
cheques as small 10% of customer likes this.
Banking in India has come a full circle from the time when you had to wait in a
queue to collect cash to getting it delivered at your doorstep at no extra cost. Add to
that services like phone banking, Internet banking, 24 hour ATM, draft delivery at
home, etc. and you have service spelt with a capital S.
Though the contemporary banks' services have changed a lot over the last few
years, the core function has remained the same. Banks handle deposits and
withdrawal of money, provide loans, pay a part of the surplus as interest and the rest
is kept back for the smooth functioning of the bank and profit making.
A banks' functions can be divided into various divisions like:
Treasury group: This group takes care of the total funds of a bank including
foreign exchange reserves. Responsibilities include bank portfolio management,
dealing in foreign currency, etc. There are Forex (foreign exchange) dealers in this
group who exclusively deal with the foreign market. They buy and sell foreign
exchange at the minimum exchange cost thereby earning maximum profit from the
transactions.
Rural Banking: This group deals with the banking and credit needs of people in
the rural sector. Not all banks have this group and some banks have separate
subsidiary companies for rural banking.
BANKING IN RETAIL
With a jump in the Indian economy from a manufacturing sector, that never really
took off, to a nascent service sector, Banking as a whole is undergoing a change. A
larger option for the consumer is getting translated into a larger demand for
financial products and customization of services is fast becoming the norm than a
competitive advantage. With the Retail banking sector expected to grow at a rate of
30% [Chanda Kochhar, ED, ICICI Bank] players are focusing more and more on
the Retail and are waking up to the potential of this sector of banking. At the same
time, the banking sector as a whole is seeing structural changes in regulatory
frameworks and securitization and stringent NPA norms expected to be in place by
2004 means the faster one adapts to these changing dynamics, the faster is one
expected to gain the advantage. In this article, we try to study the reasons behind the
The Indian players are bullish on the Retail business and this is not totally
unfounded. There are two main reasons behind this. Firstly, it is now undeniable
that the face of the Indian consumer is changing. This is reflected in a change in the
urban household income pattern. The direct fallout of such a change will be the
consumption patterns and hence the banking habits of Indians, which will now be
skewed towards Retail products. At the same time, India compares pretty poorly
with the other economies of the world that are now becoming comparable in terms
of spending patterns with the opening up of our economy. For instance, while the
total outstanding Retail loans in Taiwan is around 41% of GDP, the figure in India
stands at less than 5%. The comparison with the West is even more staggering.
Another comparison that is natural when comparing Retail sectors is the use of
credit cards. Here also, the potential lies in the fact that of all the consumer
expenditure in India in 2001, less than 1% was through plastic, the corresponding
US figure standing at 18%.
What according to you would be the next big thing to happen in the Indian
retail banking sector
Outsourcing! If you are a keen observer of the market, you would notice that every
sector, including big industrial sectors like car manufacturers, have gone for
outsourcing their requirements. Over a period, those players who have gone
aggressive on outsourcing have found that it saves them not only cost and time but
helps them concentrate on their core business area, a key survival necessity in these
times of economic downturns.
The foreign banks have identified this problem but there are certain systematic risks
involved in operating in the Retail market for them. These include regulatory restrictions
that prevent them from expanding their branch network.
So these banks often take the Direct Selling Agent (DSA) route whereby low-end
jobs like sourcing or transaction processing are outsourced to small regional layers.
So now on, when you see a loan mela or a road show showcasing the retail bouquet
of an elite MNC giant, you know that a significant commission earned out of any
such booking gets ploughed back to our own economy. Perhaps, one of the biggest
impediments in foreign players leveraging the Indian markets is the absence of
positive credit bureaus. In the west the risk profile can be easily mapped to things
like SSNs and this information can be publicly traded. PAN is a step in this
direction but lot more work need to be done. What has been a positive step towards
this is a negative file sharing started by a consortium of 11 banks. However, as a
McKinsey study points out actual write-offs on NPAs show a strong negative
correlation with sharing of positive information. On top of this, the spend-now-pay-
later credit culture in India is just not picking up. A swift legal procedure against
consumers creating bad debt is virtually non-existent. Finally, the vast geographical
This will perhaps be the most wrongful inference that can be drawn from the above.
We just cannot afford to look inwards and repeat the mistakes that were the side
effects of the Nationalization of the Banking System. A growing market can never
be an alibi for lack of innovation. Indian banks have shown little or no interest in
innovative tailor-made products. A case in point is the successful implementation of
micro-credit networks in Bangladesh. Positioning a bank as a tech-savvy financial
vendor in a country where Internet penetration is an abysmal 1.65% can only add to
the over-leveraging as pointed out earlier.
The focus of the sector should remain in macroeconomic wealth creation and not
increasing the per capita indebtedness that will do little but add to the NPA burden.
Retail Banking in India has to be developed in the Indian way, notwithstanding the
long queues in front of the teller counters in the Public sector banks!

FIXED DEPOSITS
In a Fixed Deposit Account, a certain sum of money is deposited in the bank for a
specified time period with a fixed rate of interest. The rate of interest for Bank
Fixed Deposits depends on the maturity period.
Bank deposits are fairly safe because banks are subject to control of the Reserve
Bank of India (RBI) with regard to several policy and operational parameters. The
banks are free to offer varying interests in fixed deposits of different maturities.
Interest is compounded once a quarter, leading to a higher effective rate.
The minimum deposit amount varies with each bank. The minimum amount of
Fixed deposit that can be placed with YES Bank can range from as low as Rs.
10,000 to an unlimited amount.
Returns
The rate of interest for Bank Fixed Deposits depends on the maturity period
(duration) of the FD and the amount invested. Interest rate also varies between each
bank. Some banks have facility to pay interest every quarter or every month, but the
interest paid may be at a discounted rate in case of monthly interest. The Interest
payable on Fixed Deposit can also be transferred to Savings Bank or Current
Account of the customer or could be paid back by a PO.
RECURRING DEPOSIT
Given the volatility and risk of capital and return across various investment options,
customers look for avenues to park funds with assured returns and safety of
principal. Recurring Deposit scheme enables the depositor to make a financial
provision by paying equated monthly installments for a pre-agreed period. At the
end of pre-determined period you are paid back the lump sum including the
principal and interest.

Consultants at McKinsey & Company developed the 7S model in the late 1970s to
help managers address the difficulties of organizational change. The model shows
that organizational immune systems and the many interconnected variables
involved make change complex, and that an effective change effort must address
many of these issues simultaneously.
Shared values are commonly held beliefs, mindsets, and assumptions that shape
how an organization behaves its corporate culture. Shared values are what
engender trust. They are an interconnecting center of the 7Ss model. Values are the
identity by which a company is known throughout its business areas, what the
organization stands for and what it believes in, it central beliefs and attitudes. These
values must be explicitly stated as both corporate objectives and individual values
Strategy are plans an organization formulates to reach identified goals, and a set
of decisions and actions aimed at gaining a sustainable advantage over the
competition. Systems define the flow of activities involved in the daily operation
of business, including its core processes and its support systems. They refer to the
procedures, processes and routines that are used to manage the organization and
characterize how important work is to be done. Style refers to the cultural style of
the organization, how key managers behave in achieving the organization's goals,
how managers collectively spend their time and attention, and how they use
symbolic behavior. How management acts is more important that what management
says. Staff refers to the number and types of personnel within the organization

DATA COLLECTION
There are several Approach of data collection. The primary sources of data
collection are done through
Observation
Questionnaire
Questionnaire:
Questionnaire is the method of data collection, which is very much popular,
particularly in big cities. Different modes of questions are put up on the paper and
the particular universe, on which the research is conducted, are asked to fill their
responses
The Secondary source includes data collection through:
Magazines
Company Website
(a) Sampling Unit:- Walk in customers and the company database of high ended
customer.
2. Secondary Data:
The data are collected from the secondary sources such as magazines,
journals, etc. These sources consist of already variable data in the form of
statements, and reports, which may include sensory reports, financial
statements of the company, reports of governments departments, etc.
It was collected from internal sources. The secondary data was collected on
the basis of organizational file, official records, newspapers, magazines,
management books, preserved information in the companys database and the
website of the company.
Both Primary and Secondary sources was used for data collection.
For primary source, Questionnaire was used. For secondary source Internet,
Magazines, and Newspaper etc were used.
For the study, Exploratory Research Design was undertaken to classify the
investors on their risk and return profile.
PLAN OF ANALYSIS
The data obtained from the structured questionnaire was interpreted and recorded.
The table and graph were constructed using data from the questionnaire through
simple techniques like average, percentage, ratios etc.which was then used for
analyzing the acquired data.
1. Designing own and new financial products is very costly and time consuming
for the bank.
2. Customers now-a-days prefer net banking to branch banking. The banks that
are slow in introducing technology-based products, are finding it difficult to
retain the customers who wish to opt for net banking.
3. Customers are attracted towards other financial products like mutual funds
etc.
4. Though banks are investing heavily in technology, they are not able to
exploit the same to the full extent.
5. A major disadvantage is monitoring and follow up of huge volume of loan
accounts inducing banks to spend heavily in human resource department
6. Long term loans like housing loan due to its long repayment term in the
absence of proper follow-up, can become NPAs.
7. The volume of amount borrowed by a single customer is very low as
compared to wholesale banking. This does not allow banks to to exploit the
advantage of earning huge profits from single customer as in case of
wholesale banking.

Retail banking has immense opportunities in a growing economy like India. As the
growth story gets unfolded in India, retail banking is going to emerge a major
driver. How does the world view us? The BRIC report is viewing India as an
economic superpower. A.T. Kearney, a global management-consulting firm,
recently identified India as the second most attractive retail destination of 30
emergent markets.
The rise of Indian middle class is an important contributory factor in this regard.
The percentage of middle to high-income Indian households is expected to continue
rising. The younger population not only wields increasing purchasing power, but as
far as acquiring personal debt is concerned, they are perhaps more comfortable than
previous generations. Improving consumer purchasing power, coupled with more
liberal attitudes towards personal debt, is contributing to Indias retail banking
segment.
What are the challenges for the industry and its stakeholders
First, retention of consumers is going to be a major challenge. According to a
research by Riechheld and Sasser in the Harvard business review, 5percent increase
in customer retention can increase profitability by 35 percent in banking business,
50 percent in insurance and brokerage, and 125 percent in the consumer credit card
market. Thus, banks need to emphasis on retaining consumer and increasing the
market share.
Second, rising indebtedness could turn out to be a cause for concern in the future.
Indias position, of course, is not comparable to that of developed world where
household debt as a proportion of disposable income is much higher. Such a
scenario creates high uncertainty. Expressing concerns about the high growth
witnessed in consumer credit segments the reserve bank has, as a temporary
measure, put in place risk containment measures and increased the weight from 100
percent to 125 percent in the case of consumer credit including personal loans and
credit cards.
Third, information technology poses both opportunities and challenges. Even with
ATM machines and Internet Banking, many of the customers still prefer the
personal touch of their neighborhood branch bank. Technology has made it possible
to deliver services throughout branch network, providing instant updates to
checking accounts and rapid movement of money for stock transfers. However, this
dependency on the network has bought IT departments additional responsibilities
Set service expectations and standards of behavior- this means that managers
must set clear service expectations and standards of behavior, beginning with
defining "excellent service."
Identify and eliminate barriers and obstacles. Policies that do not make sense;
procedures that get in the way; and rules, norms that make satisfying
customers difficult all need to be eliminated to successfully improve service
Learn and develop skills. Clearly, personnel at all levels should learn new
skills related to service excellence and serve the customer.
How do we see the future of retail banking? What are the major attributes of the
shape of things to come in this sector?
First, customer service should be the be-all and end-all of retail banking. The other
day a document released by the British Bankers Association, entitled UK Retail
Banking Manifesto: addressing the challenges that lie ahead for the industry and its
stakeholders on September 29, 2004 came to my notice. This document analysed
the key policy issues relevant to the retail banking sector and highlighted the role of
financial inclusion, responsible lending, access to finance, and consumer protection.
It is in this context that that one is reminded of the needs to develop the standards
and codes for banking.
Limited (CIBIL), incorporated in 2000, aims at fulfilling the need of credit granting
institutions for comprehensive credit information by collecting, collating and
disseminating credit information pertaining to both commercial and consumer
borrowers. At the same time banks must exercise due diligence before declaring a
borrower as defaulter.
Finally, retail banking does not refer to lending only. In the whole story of retailing
one should not forget the role played by retail depositors. The homemaker, the retail
shop keeper, the pensioners, self-employed and those employed in unorganized
sector - all need to get a place in the banks. It is in this backdrop that the Annual
Policy for 2005-06 pointed out issues relating to financial exclusion and had
announced that the RBI would implement policies to encourage banks which
provide extensive services while disincentivising those which are not responsive to
the banking needs of the community, including the underprivileged.
Furthermore, the nature, scope and cost of services need to be monitored to assess
whether there is any denial, implicit or explicit, of basic banking services to the
common person and banks have been urged to review their existing practices to
align them with the objective of financial inclusion.
With reference to table no.1, 90% of customers are happy with the bank
timings & they opinioned that it is very good.
With reference to table no. 2, 80% of respondents like the branch ambience
& layout & find it friendly with reference to table no.3, 80% of respondents
said branch was clean and well maintained.
With reference to table no.4, 76% respondents view that Branch personnel
had listened to them patiently and have been able to respond to their queries
and clarifications.
74% of respondent responded that Branch personnel had been very helpful
and courteous with reference to table no.5.
With reference to table no. 10, 82% of respondent responded that Yes Bank
looks into the feedback & is very good.
With reference to table no.11, 80% of respondent opinioned that they are
happy with the TAT post request is very good.
With reference to table no.13, 74% of the respondent opinioned that YES
COMMUNITY EVENTS are very good.
With reference to table no. 14, 78% of the respondent opinioned that
information in bank statement is clear, easy & adequate and is very good.
With reference to table no 15, 90% of respondent opinioned that they will
most definitely recommend YES BANK to their friends & relatives. Overall
the response of the bank customer is good.
Suggestions are always considered to be the most important part of any project
report because for every pros there is cons associated with and to reduce the effect
of latter, following suggestions must be taken into consideration in regard to retail
banking.
The Branch personnel should listen to customer patiently and should be able
to respond to their queries and clarifications because some customer are new
to some of the bank services and until and unless they will come to know
about those services they will be not be satisfied.
With reference to table no. 5 as not many respondent opinioned that Branch
Personnel are helpful and courteous, so I will suggest that Bank personnel
should be helpful & courteous towards maximum number of customers.
With reference to table. 10, YES bank should look into the feedback provided
by customer and takes necessary action wherever required.
Some time the customer has to wait at the Teller Counter, the service should
be improve by appointing more staff, with reference to table no.11.
The YES bank should focus on business and service portfolio for a reputation
of being niche players in the industry.
The bank should concentrate on few reliable high net worth companies and
individuals rather than cater to the mass market.
As it is only 10% respondent said that sometime there was a error in the
transaction happened so to avoid these kinds of errors should be avoided
because it is unnecessarily results in wastage of time for both staff members
and service rendered, reference to table no. 9
Communication with the customer should improve and increase so bank can
easily response towards them and in result the customer would be satisfy and
no question that they will recommend the YES Bank to their friends and
relatives because 2% customer are no responding it in a positive manner.
The project aims to study the retail banking operations of YES BANK. The study
was very fruitful, it yielded the desired results, helped me understand the retail
banking. The study also helps in what are the customer opinions towards operations
of bank & its various product and services.
Any serious discussion of the future of the retail banking industry eventually raises
a basic question: will future customers still need retail banks? The answer, it turns
out, depends on banks themselves. With technology and nonblank businesses
providing new options for safeguarding and managing their finances, customers will
continue to depend on banks only as long as banks can provide service and value
that cannot be found anywhere else.
The need to become highly customer focused has forced the slow-moving public
sector banks to adopt a fast track approach. The unleashing of products and services
through the net has galvanized players at all levels of the banking and financial
institutions market grid to look a new at their existing portfolio offering.
Conservative banking practices allowed.
Indian banks to be insulated partially from the Asian currency crisis.Indian banks
are now quoting at higher valuation when compared to banks in other Asian
countries (viz. Hong Kong, Singapore, Philippines etc.) that have major problems
linked to huge Non Performing Assets (NPAs) and payment defaults. Co-operative
YES BANK has a great opportunity to increase their market potential in the present
market situation.
LEARNING EXPERIENCE
The Dissertation is to define the retail banking and regarding the general services of
bank.
The study was very fruitful, it yield the desire result, helped me to understand the
banking services better. The study also yield what are the factors that banking are
looking forward for the customer.
The Indian banking has come from a long way from being a sleepy business
institution to a highly proactive and dynamic entity. This transformation has been
largely brought about by the large dose of liberalization and economic reforms that
allowed banks to explore new business opportunities rather than generating
revenues from conventional streams (i.e. borrowing and lending). The banking in
India is highly fragmented with 30 banking units contributing to almost 50% of
deposits and 60% of advances.
