established which started as private shareholders banks, mostly Europeans shareholders. During the first phase

PHASE II
Government took major steps in this Indian Banking Sector Reform after independence. In 1955, it nationalized
Imperial Bank of India with extensive banking facilities on a large scale especially in rural and semi-urban areas.
Second phase of nationalization Indian Banking Sector Reform was carried out in 1980 with seven more banks.
This step brought 80% of the banking segment in India under Government ownership. The following are the
steps taken by the 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 seven banks with deposits over 200 crore. After the nationalization of banks, the
branches of the public sector bank India rose to approximately 800% in deposits and advances took a huge
jump by 11,000%. 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 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. The financial system of India has shown a great deal of resilience. It
is sheltered from any crisis triggered by any external macroeconomics 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.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
1. Descriptive Research
2. Follow Questionnaire method
3. Primary Data: In some cases the researchers may realize the need for collecting
the first hand information. As in the case of everyday life, if we want to have first
hand information on any happening or event, we either ask someone who knows
about it or we observe it ourselves, we do the both. Thus, the two methods by
which primary data can be collected is observation and communication. Those
data collected first hand, either by the researcher or by someone else, especially
for the purpose of the study is known as primary data.
4. Secondary Data: Any data, which have been gathered earlier for some other
purpose, are secondary data in the hands of researcher.
5. Information was collected through both primary and secondary sources.
The data collected for this project has been taken mostly from the
secondary source.

LIMITATIONS
Some of the limitations of the project are listed as below:
1. Due to the financial and time constraints a cluster analysis of the population so
as to get better results was not feasible.
2. It was difficult to break the ice with the common people initially. It was a
daunting task to convince them to fill in the personal details of the questionnaire
where they have to mention the monthly income, occupation etc.
3. To convince the people for a proper interviewing process is also difficult.
4. Figures keep on changing from time to time.
5. Data may be outdated.
6. Compilation of data on competitor analysis was difficult due to non-availability of
correct information.
7. The figures have been taken as approximations.

EVOLUTION
UTI was established in 1964 by an Act of Parliament; neither did the Government of India own it nor
contributes any capital. The RBI was asked to contribute one-half of its initial capital of Rs 5 crore, and given the
mandate of running the UTI in the interest of the unit-holders. The State Bank of India and the Life Insurance
Corporation contributed 15 per cent of the capital each, and the rest was contributed by scheduled commercial
banks which were not nationalized then. This kind of structure for a unit trust is not found anywhere else in the
world. Again, unlike other unit trusts and mutual funds, the UTI was not created to earn profits. In the course of
nearly four decades of its existence, it (the UTI) has succeeded phenomenally in achieving its objective and has
the largest share anywhere in the world of the domestic mutual fund industry.'' The emergence of a "foreign
expert" during the setting up of the UTI makes an interesting story. The announcement by the then Finance
Minister that the Government of India was contemplating the establishment of a unit trust caught the eye of
Mr. George Woods, the then President of the World Bank. Mr. Woods took a great deal of interest in the Indian
financial system, as he was one of the principal architects of the ICICI, in which his bank, First Boston
Corporation Bank, had a sizeable shareholding. Mr. Woods offered, through Mr. B.K. Nehru, who was India's
Executive Director on the World Bank, the services of an expert. The Centre jumped at the offer, and asked the
RBI to hold up the finalization of the unit trust proposals till the expert visited India. The only point Mr. Sullivan
made was that the provision to limit the ownership of units to individuals might result in unnecessarily
restricting the market for units. While making this point, he had in mind the practice in the US, where small
pension funds are an important class of customers for the unit trusts. The Centre accepted the foreign expert's
suggestion, and the necessary amendments were made in the draft Bill. Thus, began corporate investment in
the UTI, which received a boost from the tax concession given by the government in the 1990-91 Budget.
According to this concession, the dividends received by a company from investments in other companies,
including the UTI, were completely exempt from corporate income tax, and provided the dividends declared by
the investing company were higher than the dividends received. The result was a phenomenal increase in
corporate investment which accounted for 57 per cent of the total capital under US-64 scheme. Because of
high liquidity the corporate sector used the UTI to park its liquid funds. This added to the volatility of the UTI
funds.

The corporate lobby which perhaps subtly opposed the establishment of the UTI in the public sector made use
of it for its own benefits later. The Government-RBI power game started with the finalization of the UTI charter
itself. The RBI draft of the UTI charter stipulated that the Chairman will be nominated by it, and one more
nominee would be on the Board of Trustees. While finalizing the draft Bill, the Centre changed this stipulation.
The Chairman was to be nominated by the Government, albeit in consultation with RBI. Although the
appointment was to be made in consultation with the Reserve Bank, the Government could appoint a person of
its choice as Chairman even if the Bank did not approve of him.

the World Bank, the Government of India and representatives of Indian industry. The principal objective was to
create a development financial institution for providing medium-term and long-term project financing to Indian
businesses. In the
1990s, ICICI transformed its business from a development financial institution offering only project finance to a
diversified financial services group offering a wide variety of products and services, both directly and through a
number of subsidiaries and affiliates like ICICI Bank. In 1999, ICICI become the first Indian company and the first
bank or financial institution from non-Japan Asia to be listed on the NYSE. After consideration of various
corporate structuring alternatives in the context of the emerging competitive scenario in the Indian banking
industry, and the move towards universal banking, the managements of ICICI and ICICI Bank formed the view
that the merger of ICICI with ICICI Bank would be the optimal strategic alternative for both entities, and would
create the optimal legal structure for the ICICI group's universal banking strategy. The merger would enhance
value for ICICI shareholders through the merged entity's access to low-cost deposits, greater opportunities for
earning fee-based income and the ability to participate in the payments system and provide transaction-
banking services. The merger would enhance value for ICICI Bank shareholders through a large capital base and
scale of operations, seamless access to ICICI's strong corporate relationships built up over five decades, entry
into new business segments, higher market share in various business segments, particularly fee-based services,
and access to the vast talent pool of ICICI and its subsidiaries. In October 2001, the Boards of Directors of ICICI
and ICICI Bank approved the merger of ICICI and two of its wholly-owned retail finance subsidiaries, ICICI
Personal Financial Services Limited and ICICI Capital Services Limited, with ICICI Bank. The merger was approved
by shareholders of ICICI and ICICI Bank in January2002, by the High Court of Gujarat at Ahmedabad in March
2002, and by the High Court of Judicature at Mumbai and the Reserve Bank of India in April 2002. Consequent
to the merger, the ICICI group's financing and banking operations, both wholesale and retail, have been
integrated in a single entity.

SBI
HISTORY
The origin of the State Bank of India goes back to the first decade of the nineteenth century with the
establishment of the Bank of Calcutta in Calcutta on 2 June 1806.Three years later the bank received its charter
and was re-designed as the Bank of Bengal (2 January 1809). A unique institution, it was the first joint-stock
bank of British India sponsored by the Government of Bengal. The Bank of Bombay (15 April 1840) and the
Bank of Madras (1 July 1843) followed the Bank of Bengal. These three banks remained at the apex of modern
banking in India till their amalgamation as the Imperial Bank of India on 27 January 1921.Primarily Anglo-Indian
creations, the three presidency banks came into existence either as a result of the compulsions of imperial
finance or by the felt needs of local European commerce and were not imposed from outside in an arbitrary
manner to modernize India's economy. Their evolution was, however, shaped by ideas culled from similar
developments in Europe and England, and was influenced by changes occurring in the structure of both the
local trading environment and those in the relations of the Indian economy to the economy of Europe and the
global economic framework.
BUSINESS SUMMARY
The business of the banks was initially confined to discounting of bills of exchange or other negotiable private
securities, keeping cash accounts and receiving deposits and issuing and circulating cash notes. Loans were
restricted to Rs. one lakh and the period of accommodation confined to three months only. The security for
such loans was public securities, commonly called Company's Paper, bullion, treasure, plate, jewels, or goods
'not of a perishable nature' and no interest could be charged beyond a rate of twelve per cent. Loans against
goods like opium, indigo, salt woolens, cotton, cotton piece goods, mule twist and silk goods were also granted
but such finance by way of cash credits gained momentum only from the third decade of the nineteenth
century.

All commodities, including tea, sugar and jute, which began to be financed later, were either pledged or
hypothecated to the bank. Demand promissory notes were signed by the borrower in favor of the guarantor,
which was in turn endorsed to the bank. Lending against shares of the banks or on the mortgage of houses,
land or other real property was, however, forbidden. Indians were the principal borrowers against deposit of
Company's paper, while the business of discounts on private as well as salary bills was almost the
exclusive monopoly of individuals Europeans and their partnership firms. But the main function of the three
banks, as far as the government was concerned, was to help the latter raise loans from time to time and also
provide a degree of stability to the prices of government securities.

PRODUCT
To begin with, develop the habit of looking at your product as though you were an outside marketing
consultant brought in to help your company decide whether or not it's in the right business at this time. Ask
critical questions such as, "Is the current product or service, or mix of products and services, appropriate and
suitable for the market and the customers of today?"
Develop a habit of assessing your business honestly and asking,
Are these the right products or services for our customers today?
Compared to your competitors, is your product or service superior in some significant
way to anything else available? If so, what is it? If not, could you develop an area
of superiority? Should you be offering this product or service at all in the current market
place?
Product variety, quality and its features.

PRICES
The second P in the formula is price. Develop the habit of continually examining and reexamining the
prices of the products and services you sell to make sure they're still appropriate to the realities of the
current market. Sometimes you need to lower your prices. At other times, it may be appropriate to raise
your prices. Many companies have found that the profitability of certain products or services doesn't
justify the amount of effort and resources that go into producing them. By raising their prices, they may
lose a percentage of their customers, but the remaining percentage generates a profit on every sale.
Could this be appropriate for you? Sometimes you need to change your terms and conditions of sale.
Sometimes, by spreading your price over a series of months or years, you can sell far more than you
are today, and the interest you can charge will more than make up for the delay in cash receipts.
Sometimes you can combine products and services together with special offers and special promotions.
Sometimes you can include free additional items that cost you very little to produce but make your
prices appear far more attractive to your customers. In business, as in nature, whenever you experience
resistance or frustration in any part of your sales or marketing activities, be open to revisiting that area.
Be open to the possibility that your current pricing structure is not ideal for the current market. Be open
to the need to revise your prices, if necessary, to remain competitive, to survive and thrive in a fast-
changing market place.
AXIS bank has developed innovative strategies against its competitors with respect to pricing by use of
technology. The use of technology is the strategic differentiator for AXIS bank that helps in cost
minimization and creating efficiency for the customer. The creation of centralized processing system
linking all its branches has been a major strategic move in this regard.
The pricing mechanism and features of various HDFC products are as follows: Home Loans:
Floating rates:
For loan of up to five years for amounts between Rs one lakh and Rs 50 lakh is at9.25 per
cent (9 per cent).
The rate for loans of 5 years and above up to 10 years is now at 9.75 per cent (9.50 per cent).
The interest rate for above ten years now stands at 10.25 per cent (10 per cent)

PROCESS
The fifth element in the marketing mix is the process. Develop the habit of standing back and looking at
every visual element in the process or service through the eyes of a critical prospect. Remember, people
from their first impression about you within the first 30 seconds of seeing you or some element of your
company. Small improvements in the process or external appearance of your product or service can
often lead to completely different reactions from your customers. With regard to the process of your
company, your product or service, you should think in terms of everything that the customer sees from
the first moment of contact with your company all the way through the purchasing process.
Process refers to the way your product or service appears from the outside. Packaging refers to your
people and how they dress and groom. It refers to your offices, your waiting rooms, your brochures,
your correspondence and every single visual element about your company. Everything counts.
Everything helps or hurts. Everything affects your customer's confidence about dealing with you.
POSITIONING
The next P is positioning, the habit of thinking continually about how you are positioned in the hearts
and minds of your customers.
How do people think and talk about you when you're not present?
How do people think and talk about your company?
What positioning do you have in your market, in terms of the specific words people use
when they describe you and your offerings to others?
AXIS Bank has positioned its branches in all the strategic position so that it is easily accessible to
maximum customer. It has also come up with some phone banking centre and centralized collection and
payment hub.

over the phone, handling multiple queries in about 7000 calls per day.
CENTRALISED COLLECTION AND PAYMENT HUB

activity under the Bank’s Cash Management Services (CMS) across the country, handling on an average
about Rs.5000 crores per month on the collection front and aboutRs.1500 crores per month on
the payment front.
PEOPLE
The final P of the marketing mix is people. Develop the habit of thinking in terms of the people inside
and outside of your business who are responsible for every element of your sales and marketing
strategy and activities. It's amazing how many entrepreneurs and businesspeople will work extremely
hard to think through every element of the marketing strategy and the marketing mix, and then pay
little attention to the fact that every single decision and policy has to be carried out by a specific person,
in a specific way. Your ability to select, recruit, hire and retain the proper people, with the skills and
abilities to do the job you need to have done, is more important than everything else put together. An
essential ingredient to any service provision is the use of appropriate staff and people. Recruiting the
right staff and training them appropriately in the delivery of service is essential if the organization has to
obtain competitive advantage. AXIS bank values its human resources very highly and is on a constant
endeavor to continuously develop its human resources by laying strong emphasis on training
development. It possesses a highly motivated team of professionals and has the lowest
employee turnover rate in the industry.

marketing offering (Product or Service).
BRAND NAME
UTI has officially announced the change of its name to ‘Axis Bank’. The awareness campaign titled ‘UTI
Bank is now Axis Bank; everything is the same except the name’, has been created by O&M and is the
brainchild of Sumanto Chattopadhyay.
The decision to re-brand the bank emanated from the need to move out of a scenario of brand
confusion that is created by several shareholder-unrelated entities using the UTI brand. On the creative
point of view, the change of name from UTI Bank to Axis Bank is precisely just a name change.
Everything else about the brand remains the same. Axis is a strong name with an international aura to it.
It is very much in keeping with UTI’s success story in the private banking arena.
LOGO DESIGN
The logo design of Axis Bank is based on the letter ‘A’. It is a contemporary, universal and solid design
that retains the burgundy color of the original UTI logo as a link to its heritage
MARKETING INITIATIVES
On the marketing initiatives, a multimedia campaign was unfolded on August 1 that will go on for the
next few weeks. It seeks to reassure customers that the change of name will in no way affect the
services offered by the bank. On the thought process the creative platform adopted for the name
change is based primarily on twins -- siblings whose names are different, but are identical in every other
way. This campaign will run on

Radio and other 360-degree media.
Some interesting innovations are planned in the print medium. On radio, the name change is being

Some ratios that are relevant for evaluating banks include
Credit to deposit ratio
Capital adequacy ratio
Non-performing asset ratio
Provision coverage ratio
Return on assets ratio
We thought it would be an interesting idea to look and compare these numbers for the leading private
(HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank and Axis Bank) and public sector (SBI, Punjab National Bank and Bank of Baroda)
banks. In addition, we will also see how the same ratios have changed over the past few years.
Credit to deposit ratio: This ratio indicates how much of the advances lent by banks is done
through deposits. It is the proportion of loan-assets created by banks from the deposits received. The
higher the ratio, the higher the loan-assets created from deposits. Deposits would be in the form of
current and saving account as well as term deposits. The outcome of this ratio reflects the ability of the
bank to make optimal use of the available resources.
If we see the following chart, ICICI Bank distinctly stands out from its peers. A strong reason for the
same would be its aggressive nature. Further, PSU banks and Axis Bank have seen their ratios increase
gradually over the years. The credit to deposit ratio of HDFC Bank on the other hand, has been fairly
stable.

Capital adequacy ratio: A bank's capital ratio is the ratio of qualifying capital to risk adjusted
(or weighted) assets. The RBI has set the minimum capital adequacy ratio at 9% for all banks. A ratio
below the minimum indicates that the bank is not adequately capitalized to expand its operations. The
ratio ensures that the bank do not expand their business without having adequate capital.
It must be noted that it would be difficult for an investor to calculate this ratio as banks do not disclose
the details required for calculating the denominator (risk weighted average) of this ratio in detail. As
such, banks provide their CAR from time to time.
Considering that the Indian banking sector has been growing at a strong pace, all the leading banks, both
private and public have been expanding operations at a strong pace. As such, their CAR ratios are well
above the prescribed limit of 9%. Private Banks such as HDFC Bank, Axis Bank and ICICI Bank have in fact
increased their CAR over the past four to five years.
As for the public banks, SBI and Punjab National Bank (PNB) have seen their CAR steadily expand over
the past few years as well. However, this ratio for Bank of Baroda has been fairly stable.
Non-performing asset ratio: The net NPA to loans (advances) ratio is used as a measure of
the overall quality of the bank’s loan book. An NPA are those assets for which interest is overdue for
more than 90 days (or 3 months). Net NPAs are calculated by reducing cumulative balance of provisions
outstanding at a period end from gross NPAs. Higher ratio reflects rising bad quality of loans.
Capital adequacy ratio: A bank's capital ratio is the ratio of qualifying capital to risk adjusted
(or weighted) assets. The RBI has set the minimum capital adequacy ratio at 9% for all banks. A ratio
below the minimum indicates that the bank is not adequately capitalized to expand its operations. The

The NPA ratio is one of the most important ratios in the banking sector. It helps identify the quality of
assets that a bank possesses. If we look at the chart below, we can clearly see a differentiation between
India’s largest banks. A bank such as ICICI Bank would garner one of the highest NPA ratios amongst
private banks on the back of its aggressive nature. As the banks lends out strongly to customers, the
chances of them defaulting also rises. Plus, considering that private banks charge higher interest costs
would only make things more difficult for its customers. At the same time, the NPA ratio of a relatively
much conservative bank such as HDFC Bank would remain low. It is clearly evident from the above chart.
The marginal spurt in this ratio during FY09 is due to its acquisition of Centurion Bank of Punjab.
Further, Axis Bank has done well in the recent past to bring down its NPA ratio. So is the case for Bank of
Baroda (BoB). PNB has done well to keep its NPA levels low as well. As for India’s largest bank SBI, its
NPAs are relatively much higher than that of its PSU peers. This can also be attributed to its aggressive
period over the past few years.
Provision coverage ratio: The key relationship in analyzing asset quality of the bank is
between the cumulative provision balances of the bank as on a particular date to gross NPAs. It is a
measure that indicates the extent to which the bank has provided against the troubled part of its loan
portfolio. A high ratio suggests that additional provisions to be made by the bank in the coming years
would be relatively low (if gross non-performing assets do not rise at a faster clip).

On observing the above chart, we can notice that private banks such as HDFC Bank & ICICI Bank as also
PNB and Bank of Baroda have been quite conservative when it comes to covering their NPAs. Axis Bank
on the other hand has been extra conservative in the past few years. This explains the reason for the
sharp improvement in the NPA ratio as well. The same can however, not be said about SBI, which is the
only large bank which has seen its provision coverage ratio deteriorate over the past four years.
Return on assets ratio: Returns on asset (ROA) ratio is the net income (profits) generated by
the bank on its total assets (including fixed assets). The higher the proportion of average earnings assets,
the better would be the resulting returns on total assets.

47
While HDFC Bank has done well to maintain its ROAs over the past few years, that of ICIC Bank has been
gradually on a decline. The other banks, has however done well to improve their return ratio over the
past few years.
Conclusion
Looking at the above mentioned parameters, it would be quite easy to differentiate the aggressive
banks from the conservative ones. During good times and bad, banks such as HDFC Bank have managed
to keep things under control. Relatively aggressive banks such as ICICI Bank and SBI have been facing
some problems. Further, PNB, Axis Bank and Bank of Baroda have done well to improve their asset
quality, return ratios over the past few years as well.

Financial Performance of Axis Bank
The net interest income (NII) of Axis Bank, over the last 10 years, has rocketed by 54.8% CAGR
from Rs. 98 Cr. in FY01 to Rs. Rs. 5004 Cr. in FY10; and its total income has grown by 34.9%
CAGR. During the same period its book value and EPS have jumped by 37% and 28% resp.
The bank has maintained its net profit to total fund ratios between 1 and 1.25 during FY05 to
FY08, whereas in the last two financial years, this ratio has been above 1.25. This increasing
trend of net profit to total fund ratio shows that it has continuously increased its efficiency of
utilizing funds. The non-performing assets (NPA) to net advances ratio has also shown a
decreasing trend from 3.46% in FY02 to 0.4% in FY10 which shows the bank has continuously
increased its assets quality. It has also maintained a very good capital adequacy ratio (CAR) of
15.8% at the end of FY10, well above the RBI guide line of 9%, which indicates that it can easily
cover all the associated risks.
Hence, the 10 YEAR X-RAY of Axis Bank is Green (Very Good).

15.8% at the end of FY10, well above the RBI guide line of 9%, which indicates that it can easily
cover all the associated risks.
Hence, the 10 YEAR X-RAY of Axis Bank is Green (Very Good).

microfinance loan book grew by 24% to Rs. 10772 Cr. and SME by 9% to Rs. 17053 Cr. Exposure to the
Microfinance institutions is around 1% of advance book and that of telecom (mainly 2G license
advances) constitutes 6% of total advance book.
For the nine months ended December 2010, Axis Bank has reported 37% rise in the NII at Rs 4861.99 Cr.,
19% in fee-based income at Rs. 2559 Cr., and 6% in the other income at Rs 3181.73 Cr. compared to that
of corresponding quarter last year respectively. In FY11, so far, it has opened 142 branches and 1010
ATMs. Thus, the bank is on line to achieve its target for FY11.
Increasing cost of funds is a cause for concern:
The RBI has increased the Repo rate, Reverse repo rate, and CRR in the last one and a half year in several
phases to control inflation. This has lead to lower loan able fund availability in the bank and continuous
increase in cost of funds, which can be seen in the chart. As, the inflation rate is still on the higher side,
tight monetary policy is expected to continue in the short-term. So, we expect that the cost of funds will
also increase further in the short-term, which will keep margins under pressure.
RBI, recently, has increased provisioning percentage on housing, real estate, and many other types of
loans. This will affect the profitability of the bank because, in the retail segment, it finances almost 70%
advances in housing.
Considering above factors, we expect that the short-term future prospects of Axis Bank will be Orange

Product strategy designed to benefit customers:
To beat the market, Axis Bank is adopting different product strategies. Recently, it has extended the
repayment period of the standard home loan to the maximum tenure of 25 years. In the step down
product (a type of home loan product), the customer has to pay a higher EMI when the combined family
income is higher and a lower EMI when the family income has reduced over a period of time. Apart from
this, the Bank has given option to its customers to close the loan before its maturity with no prepayment
penalty.
Banking Sector – Heading towards a high-performing sector:
The banking sector is poised to grow in line with the growth of the economy. The Indian economy is
expected to have a high growth in the long-term and so is the Indian banking sector, which is currently
in consolidation stage. According to Mckinsey Report on India Banking 2010, ‘The banking index has
grown at a compounded annual rate of over 51% since April 2001 as compared to a 27% growth in the
market index for the same period (2001 to 2010)’. The report says that the Indian banking sector is
heading towards a high-performing sector. Axis Bank, being the third largest private bank in India, is
ready to take full advantage of this growth opportunity.
Financial Inclusion Program:
Under Financial Inclusion Program, RBI is taking initiative to provide banking services at affordable costs
to the weaker sections of society or the unbanked segment, which does not have any access to the
formal banking system. As of now, it is estimated that 60% of the Indian population does not have
access to formal banking facility and RBI is keen on achieving 100% financial inclusion for sustaining
equitable growth. Axis Bank is taking following initiatives under this Program:
o Targets to cover 12,000 villages in the next 5 years: Axis Bank plans to cover 5,500 villages for financial
inclusion by March 2011 and scale it up to 12,000 villages in five years time. It is looking at opening 18-
lakh no-frills accounts, Rs. 40 Cr. of deposits, and Rs. 10 Cr. of advances. The 18-lakh account would
include 12-lakh accounts that they have already opened for government-sponsored scheme. The bank is
looking at several low-cost delivery models such as smart card, mobile banking and point of transaction
device.

o Tie up with Janalakshmi Social Services to tap urban poor: To tap unbanked population in urban areas,
Axis Bank has tied up with a Bangalore-based microfinance institution, Janalakshmi Social Services.
Janalakshmi will use its client base to provide banking services of Axis Bank and will work as business
correspondent to sell other products of the Bank. This service would be spread from Bangalore to 50
other cities in the near future.
o MoU with Idea to test a Branchless Banking Model: Axis Bank has signed a Memorandum of
Understanding with Idea Cellular to test a ‘Branchless Banking’ model through a mobile enabled
remittance pilot. Idea will act as a ‘Business Correspondent’ of Axis Bank to provide an entire range of
financial products and services offered by the Bank, through the mobile operator’s retail outlets. Idea’s
network will help Axis Bank gain access to widespread distribution reach and a low-cost delivery channel
for offering financial products and services, based on the mobile platform. On the other hand, Idea can
offer value-added services to its customers by offering financial products and services.
There is still a question mark on the viability of Financial Inclusion Program which primarily targets
the low-income group. This leaves little scope of high margins under this program. However, this
initiative is expected to help in economic development, and hence is expected to be fruitful in the
long-term.
Diversified into non-banking financial services:
Axis Bank has started non-banking financial services to carry out investment and lending activities with a
focus on infrastructure and other activities. It has five wholly-owned subsidiaries:
1. Axis Securities and Sales Ltd. – to market credit cards , retail asset products and online trading
facilities
2. Axis Private Equity Ltd – to manage equity investments & provide venture capital to support
businesses
3. Axis Trustee Services Ltd – to engage in trusteeship activities
4. Axis Asset Management Companies Ltd. – to carry on the activities of managing mutual fund
business
5. Axis Mutual Fund Trustee Ltd. – to act as the trustee for the mutual fund business

Acquisition of Enam’s investment banking business expected to fill the gap in their portfolio:
Axis Bank has acquired Enam’s investment banking and institutional broking businesses for R.s 2,064 Cr.
in a stock-swap deal. Pursuant to the scheme and in consideration for the proposed demerger, Enam
shareholders will receive 5.7 shares of Axis Bank for every 1 share held in Enam; translating into an
approximately 3.37% shareholding in Axis Bank. While the acquisition appears to be at a slight premium,
it will help Axis Bank fill a key gap in portfolio, increase fee-based income and bring significant long-term
benefits. Also, as these businesses are profit-making and enjoy one of the highest margins in the
industry, they will contribute to Axis Bank’s profits and will be earnings accretive.

Risks & Concerns
a) Low exposure in high-margin retail banking.
b) New Bank License would hamper banks’ profits: RBI is providing banking licenses to selected NBFCs
from 2011. This would increase competition among banks which would consequently hampers their
profits.
c) RBI, in Bancon 2010 held in Mumbai, has indicated that Indian Banks should operate at lower
margin, in line with global standard. They should decrease lending rate and increase savings rate to
help in achieving double digit economic growth. RBI may also increase Capital Adequacy Ratio
benchmark from 2013.
d) As the banks have mainly financial assets, they have to manage several risks such as credit risk,
market risk, liquidity risk, country risk etc. So, banking business, as a whole, is considered as risky
business.
e) Government regulation increases uncertainty in the banking sector: The Government of India
frequently changes monetary policies by changing CRR, repo rate, reverse repo rate etc. to maintain
stability in the economy. It increases uncertainty in the banking sector.
Considering the strong position that Axis Bank has established for itself in the banking industry and its
recent acquisition of Enam, we can expect that the long-term future prospects of Axis Bank will

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
CHAPTER IV
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
65
So, is it an investment-worthy Bank?
The economy is expected to grow roughly by 5-7% in the next 5 years. The
banking sector is poised to grow in line with the growth of the economy.
Considering the bank’s large size and its strengths, we can expect this economic
growth to have a positive impact on Axis Bank’s growth.
Yes, Axis Bank is an investment worthy bank, but only at the right
price. Currently, it is trading at a price of Rs. 1304.65. But, does this price offer an
attractive discount to its right value (MRP) or is it over-priced? It is always best to
invest at an attractive discount to its MRP, to get maximum returns at minimum
risk. Become a member of MoneyWorks4me.com to know its sensible buy- price
and hence take the right action for this company.

Conclusion & Recommendation
Axis Bank is one of the few clean (in terms of asset book), rapidly growing,
profitable, & competitive private-sector banks in India; thus it will be a major
beneficiary of the favorable banking environment. The Indian banking sector is in
a sweet spot: consumer and corporate lending is strong, asset quality is improving
and fee-income opportunities are growing. We expect this favorable environment
to continue in the medium term but recognize that a key challenge for banks will
be funding growth. Looking at its profile, I believe Axis Bank stands to gain
disproportionately from existing opportunities in the sector. The bank has strong
technology & products, an expanding distribution franchise, adequate scale, a
strong service culture, and management enterprise -features that should help it
stay ahead of the dominant government banks to win market share.
Private players such as Axis Bank that offer a multitude of delivery channels and
have an integrated technology platform could potentially achieve comparable
distribution reach in the top 200 cities to government banks with substantially
fewer branches. With a presence in the top 150 cities, I think Axis Bank is very
well positioned to rapidly reap the benefits of the expanded reach by scaling up
its retail foray.
Moreover, earnings CAGR is likely to be stronger than the larger private peers as it
begins to benefit from the distribution expansion.
