INTRODUCTION
HISTORY OF BANKING
HDFC was amongst the first to receive approval from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to set up a bank in the
private sector as part of RBI's liberalization of the Indian banking industry in 1994.The bank was incorporated
in August 1994 as HDFC Bank Limited, with its registered office in Mumbai. In January 1995 the new entity
commenced operations as a scheduled commercial bank. Almost exactly five years later, in February 2000, it
consolidated its position in the banking industry when it merged with Times Bank Limited, another new private
sector bank. The merged entity, now harboring greater depth and increased reach, had become a dynamic new
force. It afforded the bank further opportunities to cross sell its products and services and leverage alternate
delivery channels. HDFC Bank has, today, attained critical mass and is recognized amongst the most
professionally run banks in the country. HDFC Bank began operations in 1995 with a simple mission: to be a
“World Class Indian Bank.” We realized that only a single minded focus on product quality and service
excellence would help us get there. Today, we are proud to say that we are well on our way towards that goal.
HDFC Bank Limited (the Bank) is an India-based banking company engaged in providing a range of banking
and financial services, including commercial banking and treasury operations. The Bank has a network of 1412
branches and 3295 automated teller machines (ATMs) in 528 cities and total employees is 52687
HDFC Bank was the first private sector bank to be licensed for operation In February 2000 when HDFC Bank
merged with Times Bank it created history: it was the first merger in the private sector HDFC Bank was the
quickest to cross the one million credit card mark HDFC Bank was the first bank in India to launch debit cards
and offer mobile banking, online banking and real-time Net Banking HDFC Bank is the primary settlement
bank to the major stock exchanges in the country and has the biggest market share in the settlement services to
commodities exchanges.

INDIAN BANKING SYSTEM












INDIAN BANKING INDUSTRY ANALYSIS
The banking scenario in India has been changing at fast pace from being just the borrowers and lenders
traditionally, the focus has shifted to more differentiated and customized product/service provider from
regulation to liberalization in the year 1991 from planned economy to market.
Economy, from licensing to integration with Global Economics, the changes have been swift. All most all the
sector operating in the economy was affected and banking sector is no exception to this. Thus the whole of the
banking system in the country has undergone a radical change. Let us see how banking has evolved in the past
57 years of independence.

After independence in 1947 and proclamation in 1950 the country set about drawing its road map for the future
public ownership of banks was seen inevitable and SBI was created in 1955 to spearhead the expansion of
banking into rural India and speed up the process of magnetization.
Political compulsion’s brought about nationalization of bank in 1969 and lobbying by bank employees and their
unions added to the list of nationalized banks a few years later.
Slowly the unions grew in strength, while bank management stagnated. The casualty was to the customer
service declined, complaints increased and bank management was unable to item the rot.
In the meantime, technology was becoming a global phenomenon lacking a vision of the future and the banks
erred badly in opposing the technology up gradation of banks. They mistakenly believed the technology would
lead to retrenchment and eventually the marginalization of unions.
The problem faced by the banking industry soon surfaced in their balance sheets. But the prevailing accounting
practices unable banks to dodge the issue.
The rules of the game under which banks operated changed in 1993. Norms or income Recognition, Assets
classification and loan loss provisioning were put in place and capital adequacy ratio become mandatory. The
cumulative impact of all these changes has been on the concept of state ownership in banks. It is increasingly
becoming clear that the state ownership in bank is no longer sustainable.
The amendment of banking regulation act in 1993 saw the entry of new private sector banks and foreign banks.

An inter-bank funds transfer system that makes transactions in ‘real time’
RTGS Timing at branches & NetBanking
 What are the benefits?
Speed – transfers in real-time

RTGS Funds Transfer process
 RTGS Funds Transfer is both fast and convenient.
 Go to Funds Transfer and select ‘Transfer to other bank (using RTGS)’
 Add the beneficiary’s details
 Complete the transfer details (the sender and recipient information)
 Confirm your transaction
 Is there a fee?
RTGS transactions are charged as below:
 Rs 2 lakh to Rs 5 lakh - Rs. 25 (exclusive of taxes) per transaction
 Above Rs 5 lakh - Rs. 50 (exclusive of taxes) per transaction
What is RTGS System?
The acronym 'RTGS' stands for Real Time Gross Settlement, which can be defined as the continuous (real-time)
settlement of funds transfers individually on an order by order basis (without netting). 'Real Time' means the
processing of instructions at the time they are received rather than at some later time; 'Gross Settlement' means
the settlement of funds transfer instructions occurs individually (on an instruction by instruction basis).
Considering that the funds settlement takes place in the books of the Reserve Bank of India, the payments are
final and irrevocable.
 How RTGS is different from National Electronics Funds Transfer System (NEFT)?
NEFT is an electronic fund transfer system that operates on a Deferred Net Settlement (DNS) basis
which settles transactions in batches. In DNS, the settlement takes place with all transactions received
till the particular cut-off time. These transactions are netted (payable and receivables) in NEFT whereas
in RTGS the transactions are settled individually. For example, currently, NEFT operates in hourly
batches. [There are twelve settlements from 8 am to 7 pm on week days and six settlements from 8 am
to 1 pm on Saturdays.] Any transaction initiated after a designated settlement time would have to wait
till the next designated settlement time contrary to this, in the RTGS transactions are processed
continuously throughout the RTGS business hours.
 Is there any minimum/maximum amount stipulation for RTGS transactions?
The RTGS system is primarily meant for large value transactions. The minimum amount to be remitted
through RTGS is Rs. 2 lakh. There is no upper ceiling for RTGS transactions.
 What is the time taken for effecting funds transfer from one account to another under RTGS?
Under normal circumstances the beneficiary branches are expected to receive the funds in real time as

32

soon as funds are transferred by the remitting bank. The beneficiary bank has to credit the beneficiary's
account within two hours of receiving the funds transfer message.
 Would the remitting customer receive an acknowledgement of money credited to the beneficiary's
account?
The remitting bank receives a message from the Reserve Bank that money has been credited to the
receiving bank. Based on this the remitting bank can advise the remitting customer through SMS that
money has been credited to the receiving bank.
 Would the remitting customer get back the money if it is not credited to the beneficiary's account?
When?
Yes. Funds received by a RTGS member for the credit to a beneficiary customer's account, will be
returned to the originating RTGS member within two hours of the receipt of the payment at the PI of the
recipient bank or before the end of the RTGS business day, whichever is earlier, if it is not possible to
credit the funds to the beneficiary customer's account for any reason e.g. account does not exist, account
frozen, etc. Once the money is received back by the remitting bank, the original debit entry in the
customer's account is reversed.
 Till what time RTGS service window is available?
The RTGS service window for customer's transactions is available to banks from 9.00 hours to 16.30
hours on week days and from 9.00 hours to 14:00 hours on Saturdays for settlement at the RBI end.
However, the timings that the banks follow may vary depending on the customer timings of the bank
branches.
 What about Processing Charges/Service Charges for RTGS transactions?
With a view to rationalize the service charges levied by banks for offering funds transfer through RTGS
system, a broad framework has been mandated as under :
Inward transactions - Free, no charge to be levied.
Outward transactions -
Rs. 2 lakh to Rs. 5 lakh - not exceeding Rs. 30 per transaction;
Above Rs. 5 lakh - not exceeding Rs. 55 per transaction.
 What is the essential information that the remitting customer would have to furnish to a bank for
the remittance to be effected?
The remitting customer has to furnish the following information to a bank for initiating
a RTGS remittance :
 Amount to be remitted
 Remitting customer's account number which is to be debited
 Name of the beneficiary bank and branch
Name of the beneficiary customer
Account number of the beneficiary customer
Sender to receiver information, if any
The IFSC number of the receiving branch

33

 How would one know the IFSC code of the receiving branch?
The beneficiary customer can obtain the IFSC code from his bank branch. The IFSC code is also
available on the cheque leaf. The list of IFSCs is also available on the RBI website
(http://rbidocs.rbi.org.in/rdocs/RTGS/DOCs/RTGEB0112.xls). This code number and bank branch
details can be communicated by the beneficiary to the remitting customer.
 Do all bank branches in India provide RTGS service?
No. All the bank branches in India are not RTGS enabled. Presently, there are more than 100000 RTGS
enabled bank branches. The list of such branches is available on RBI website
at:http://rbidocs.rbi.org.in/rdocs/RTGS/DOCs/RTGEB0112.xls
 Is there any way that a remitting customer can track the remittance transaction?
It would depend on the arrangement between the remitting customer and the remitting bank. Some banks
with internet banking facility provide this service. Once the funds are credited to the account of the
beneficiary bank, the remitting customer gets a confirmation from his bank either by an e-mail or SMS.
Customer may also contact RTGS/NEFT Customer Facilitation Centres of the banks, for tracking a
transaction.
 How can a remitting customer know whether the bank branch of the beneficiary
accepts remittancethrough RTGS?
For a funds transfer to go through RTGS, both the sending bank branch and the receiving bank branch
would have to be RTGS enabled. The lists are readily available at all RTGS enabled branches. Besides,
the information is available at RBI website
(http://rbidocs.rbi.org.in/rdocs/RTGS/DOCs/RTGEB0112.xls). Considering that more than 100000
branches at more than 20,000 cities/towns/taluka places are covered under the RTGS system, getting this
information would not be difficult.

OBSERVATION:-
The present findings from the interpretation of the results regarding factors considered for adopting e-banking /
DIGITAL banking services by bank customers, functional / psychological barriers, and usefulness and benefits
of e-banking services are enumerated here.
 Internet centre in the study area is the place for using internet for around 95 per cent of the respondents.
 Though majority of the bank customers perceive the ATM usage as important, the importance of ATM
usage is significantly related to location, education and occupation of the bank customers based on the
present study.
 The perceived importance of DIGITAL banking is independent of the location and income but depends
upon sex, age, education and occupation of the bank customers.
 The Digital banking is important for bank customers and at the same time the importance of internet
banking is significantly related to their age, education, occupation and income.
 The extent of services like Online Enquiry, Online Payment, Credit Card and Telephone Banking has
been at “Fair” level whereas the extent of services such as ATM Card, Debit Card, Internet Banking,
Depository Service, and Investment Advisory Service, e-Transfer of Funds, Core Banking and
Anywhere Banking has been “good” by the banks.
 There is significant difference in the extent of services as provided by both public and private sector
banks.
 The preference to manual banking is little more than that of e-banking and preference towards manual
banking and e-banking is largely associated with location, age, education and occupation of the bank
customers.
 There is significant relationship between adoption of e-banking and location, age, education and
income of the bank customers.
 The adoption of e-banking is significantly associated with the number of banking transactions per
month among bank customers.
 The bank customers consider “Like to use new technologies”, “IB has made banking easy” and “Use IB
for better rate offers and charges only” as the primary reasons for adoption of e-banking.
 It is found that some bank customers have not adopted e-banking services as they do not trust the
internet as a channel for banking and it is complicated to use as well as they cannot afford the Internet
fee.
 The “Variety of services offered by the bank” is very important criteria and other criteria such as “Size
of the bank”, “Reputation of the bank” “Ownership of the bank-Overseas”, and “Ownership of the
bank-Local” are the important criteria while “Familiarity with the bank” is neither unimportant nor
important for the bank customers to consider for adopting e-banking / internet banking.
 It is found that “Withdrawals using ATM” is the service performed in the banks very much to the
expectation of the bank customers. Besides this, User friendliness of e-Banking, Debit Card Facilities
and Security of Transactions are the other three services performed very well by the banks to the bank
customers’ expectation in that order.
 The services such as “Deposits using ATM” and “Telephone Banking” performed by the banks are just
“good” in turn indicating that these services are somewhat up to the expectation of bank customers.
 There is no notable difference between the performed services such as “Deposits using ATM”, “Credit
card facilities”, “Telephone banking”, “Reasonableness in cost”, “Security of transactions”, “Adequacy

Suggestions
The following suggestions are recommended for enhancing e-banking /internet banking services of banks to the
customers
1. Banks should take necessary steps to create awareness among rural people about the advantages
of e-banking / internet banking services available in the banks.
2. The e-banking / internet banking system should be enhanced to make the online enquiry and
online payment much easier to the customers.
3. Public sector banks should improve their e-banking / internet banking services to compete with
their private sector counterparts.
4. Most of the customers have not availed of the e-banking / internet banking services because they
do not trust the internet channel presuming it as complicated. So banks may set up a team of
personnel to train the customers to get acquainted with internet channel.
5. The bank customers have perceived the risk of getting wrong information from e-banking /
internet banking services. These illusions should be removed from the minds of the customers by
bank people as these factors are the barriers for most of the customers for not adopting these
services.
6. Though e-banking / internet banking is convenient and easy to use, customers are afraid of
adopting these services because they think that using these “services are difficult and
complicated”. So, on-site training can be provided to the bank customers who intend to use e-
banking / internet banking services.
General Suggestions:
The delivery of financial services at affordable costs to vast sections of people including disadvantaged and low
income groups’ is relates to financial inclusion. Unrestrained access to public goods and services is the sine qua
non of an open and efficient society.
It is argued that as banking services are in the nature of public good, it is essential that availability of banking
and payment services to the entire population without discrimination is the prime objective of public policy
To achieve this sound financial and banking service is essential and therefore Indian bankers should take
resolutions to implement the policy of “ inclusion” in all the branches, which enable its customers to enhance
the knowledge of e-banking and avail all form of banking services. It will include the maximum number of
people under the shelter of financial inclusion for this purpose, it is the duty of the bankers to inculcate the
feeling of that e-banking /internet banking is safe and secure. This can be possible only when a banker take
steps to have a separate on-line centre in their premises with enough number of computers and uninterrupted
internet facility.

banking/internet banking services in future for the benefit of all the people.

demographic characteristics of the respondents. Though, most of the customers prefer manual banking overbanking, the

bank customers is significantly influenced by the number of times visiting the banks as well as the number of banking
transactions per month. Most of the services through e-banking / internet banking performed by both public and private
banks are beyond the expectation of the customers. Similarly the various services provided by both public and private
sector banks are more than adequate for customers. It is concluded finally that there is significant difference between
public and private sector banks in respect of both services provided and services performed via e-banking / internet
banking.

aspects (dimensions) of functional / psychological barriers (two aspects related to barriers such as
“Complications and Difficulties in using IB initially” and “Risk of getting wrong information”) and benefits (two benefits
namely, “Convenient & Easy to Use” and “Good option next to traditional banking”) are identified using factor analysis.

benefits dimensions by socioeconomic characteristics and the perceived status of functional / psychological
barriers/benefits is related to importance of using ATM, internet banking, preferred type of banking, availing e-banking
services, period of using e-banking, number of times visiting banks in a month, number of internet transaction in a week

internet banking. It is found that “flexibility and easy accessibility with convenience” is the most desirable benefit
followed by “Providing accurate, relevant and up-to date information” and “Saving time & Cost Less” and the perceived
status of the above benefits is associated with education and family income of the respondents. From this, it is apparent
