CHAPTER: I
INTRODUCTION

1.1 INDIAN BANKING SYSTEM

Banks and institutional management in the country are under going


momentous “change”. India is one of the fastest growing economies in the
world. Banking dates back to 1786, the first bank established in India, then
the nationalization of banks in 1969 and recently the liberalization of the
same since 1991.

Indian banking is the lifeline of the nation. Its network over 62,500
offices is spread across the length and breadth of the country, servicing
nearly 40 crores depositors. Financing diverse needs of more than 6 crores
entrepreneur customers providing a nation wide framework for payment
clearing and settlements and vital sectors of economy like agriculture ,
industry, trade and commerce Banks play an important role in the growth of
GDP. According to revised estimates released by the Central Statistical
Organization (CSO) in May 2006, real GDP accelerated from 7.5 per cent in
2006-07 to 9.6 percent, an 18 year high during 2006-07.

Banks plays very important role in the economic development of


every nation. They have control over a large part of the supply of money in
circulation. A strong banking sector is, therefore, vital for growth, creation
of jobs, generation of wealth, eradication of poverty, entrepreneurial activity
and increasing the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), all necessary factors for
a country to emerge as a developed one. Banks are the main stimulus of the
economic progress of a country, because, the economic development highly
depends upon the extent of mobilization of resources, investment and on the
operational efficiency of the various segments of the economy.

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI), as the Central Bank of the country, is at the
head of this group. RBI is the central bank of the country since 1934. It regulates, controls
credit, issue licenses and functions as banker of all banks and the government. In general
the Indian Financial System consists of Commercial Banks, Development Banks, Co-
operative Banks and Specialized financial institutions.

1.2 INDIGENOUS BANKING IN INDIA:


During independence, India had an indigenous banking system with a
centuries –old tradition. This system had developed the hundi, a financial
instrument still in use that is similar to the commercial bills of Western
Europe. Hundis were used to finance local trade as well as trade between
port towns and inland Centres of production.
Indigenous bankers combined banking with other activities such as the
goldsmiths, merchants, and shippers. They usually belonged to certain castes
or communities, such as the Multanis, Marwaris and Chettiars, and they
differed in the extent to which they relied on their own resources, rather than
deposits and other funds for their lending.

Indigenous bankers often endorsed hundis issued by traders and


sometimes provided personal guarantee for loans from commercial banks.
Such bankers were collectively called as shroffs. The main moneylenders
were Sowkars (who lent to farmers by their own resources or funds
borrowed from Chettiars and other indigenous bankers) and the Pathans
(who lent mainly to poor).

1.3 INDIAN FINANCIAL SYSTEM:

The ancient Indigenous banking system gave raise to the Financial System in
India. The Financial System consists of many institutions, instruments and markets.
Financial institutions range from pawnshops and moneylenders to banks, pension funds,
insurance companies, brokerage houses, investment trusts and stock exchange.
The Indian financial system comprises of an impressive network of banks, other
financial and investment institutions, offering wide range of products and services, which
together function in a fairly developed capital and money markets. As such, financial
system has come to occupy an important role in the process of economic development.

The economic development of a country depends on its financial


structure. In the long run, the larger the proportion of financial assets to real
assets, the greater the scope of economic growth. Investment is a pre-
condition of economic growth.

The primary role of any financial institution is to act as a conduit for


the transfer of financial resources from net savers to borrowers i.e., from
those who spend less than they earn to those who earn less than what they
spend.

1.4 THE STUCTURE OF BANKING SYSTEM:

The structure of banking system is determined by economic and


legal. The development of the economy and the spread of banking habit calls
for increasing banking services. The demand for these banking services
affects the banks’ structure and organization. National objectives and
aspirations result in government regulations, which have a profound
influence on the banking structure.
According to the IBA Bulletin, the banks in India are classified in to
six major categories are Public sector Banks, Private sector Banks, Foreign
Banks, State Co-operative Banks, District Co-operative Banks and Primary
Co-operative Banks.

Vasanth Desai (2006) from his book titled as ‘Banks and


institutional Management’ classified the structure of financial institutions in
India in to three major sectors
1. Commercial Banks
2. Co-operative Societies
3. Other Institutions.

1.4.1 COMMERCIAL BANKS

Commercial Banks are the oldest, biggest and fastest growing


financial intermediaries in India. They are also the most important
depositories of public sector and the most important disbursers of finance.
Commercial Banking in India is a unique system similar to that exists
nowhere in the world.

The commercial banking structure in India consists of:


Scheduled Commercial Banks and Unscheduled Banks. Scheduled
commercial Banks constitute those banks, which have been included in the
Second Schedule of Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Act, 1934. RBI in turn
includes only those banks in this schedule which satisfy the criteria laid
down vide section 42(6)(a) of the act.

CLASSIFICATION OF INDIAN COMMERCIAL BANKS:

Indian commercial banks can be broadly classified into two


categories. They are
i) Public Sector Banks
ii) Private Sector Banks

A. PUBLIC SECTOR BANKS:

Public sector Banks refer to commercial banks, which are owned


by the Central Government either directly or through the RBI. They are also
referred to as National Banks. They are established by special Acts passed
by the Parliament. Among the Public Sector Banks in India, United Bank of
India is one of the 14 major banks, which were nationalized on July 19,
1969. Its predecessor, in the Public Sector Banks, the United Bank of India
Ltd., was formed in 1950 with the amalgamation of four banks viz. Comilla
Banking Corporation Ltd. (1914), Bengal Central Bank Ltd. (1918), Comilla
Union Bank Ltd. (1922) and Hooghly Bank Ltd. (1932).

Public sector banks can be further classified in to two categories. They


are
1. State Bank of India
2. Associates banks
3. 14 Nationalized Banks
4. 6 Nationalized Banks
5. Regional rural banks

STATE BANK OF INDIA:

In accordance with the recommendation of the All India Rural Credit


Survey Committee, the Imperial Bank of India was nationalized and changed
in to the State Bank of India on 1st July, 1955 under a separate Act called the
State Bank of India (SBI) Act of 1955 passed on 8th May, 1955. The SBI
took over the assets and liabilities of the Imperial Bank of India.
SBI ASSOCIATES:

In accordance with the Recommendation of the All-India Rural


Credit, the SBI (Subsidiary Banks) Act was passed in September 1959 for
the merger of ten State associated banks. Today, there are only seven state
associated banks, which are connected with the SBI as its subsidiaries. The
seven Associate banks of the SBI are;

1. The State Bank of Bikaner and Jaipur (SBBJ)


2. The State Bank of Patiala (SBP)
3. The State Bank of Indore (SBIN)
4. The State Bank of Saurashtra (SBS)
5. The State Bank of Hyderabad (SBH)
6. The State Bank of Mysore (SBM)
7. The State Bank of Travancore (SBT)
Each of these subsidiary banks is an autonomous institution. It
has individually and independence in its day-to-day operations. The State
Bank of India has only the general power of direction, control and
supervision over the Associate banks

NATIONALIZED BANKS:

By the 1960s, the Indian banking industry has become an


important tool to facilitate the development of the Indian economy. At the
same time, it has emerged as a large employer, and a debate has ensued
about the possibility to nationalize the banking industry. Indira Gandhi, the-
then Prime Minister of India expressed the intention of the GOI in the
annual conference of the All India Congress Meeting in a paper entitled
"Stray thoughts on Bank Nationalisation. ."

The paper was received with positive enthusiasm. Thereafter,


her move was swift and sudden, and the GOI issued an ordinance and
nationalised the 14 largest commercial banks with effect from the midnight
of July 19, 1969. Jayaprakash Narayan, a national leader of India, described
the step as a "masterstroke of political sagacity." Within two weeks of the
issue of the ordinance, the Parliament passed the Banking Companies
(Acquition and Transfer of Undertaking) Bill, and it received the presidential
approval on 9th August, 1969.

A second dose of nationalisation of 6 more commercial banks


followed in 1980. The stated reason for the nationalisation was to give the
government more control of credit delivery. With the second dose of
nationalisation, the GOI controlled around 91% of the banking business of
India. After this, until the 1990s, the nationalised banks grew at a pace of
around 4%, closer to the average growth rate of the Indian economy

B.PRIVATE SECTOR BANKS:

Private banking in India was practiced since the beginning of banking


system in India. The first private bank in India to be set up in Private Sector
Banks in India was IndusInd Bank. It is one of the fast growing Private
Sector Bank in India. IDBI ranks the tenth largest development bank in the
world as Private Banks in India and has promoted a world class institutions
in India

The first Private Bank in India to receive an in principle approval


from the Reserve Bank of India was Housing Development Finance
Corporation Limited, to set up a bank in the private sector banks in India as
part of the RBI's liberalization of the Indian Banking Industry. It was
incorporated in August 1994 as HDFC Bank Limited with registered office
in Mumbai and commenced operations as Scheduled Commercial Bank in
January 1995.

The private sector can be further classified as follows

 Other private banks


 New-sophisticated private banks;
 Co-operative banks included in second schedule;
 Foreign banks in India, representative offices
 One non-schedule banks

There are 33 private banks in India and some of the private banks are
 Axis Bank
 HDFC Bank
 IDBI Bank
 ICICI Bank
 ING Vysya
 Karnataka Bank limited
 Kotak Mahindra Bank
 Yes Bank
 Lord Krishna Bank

1.4.2 CO-OPERATIVE SOCIETIES:

The Co-Operative banking sector has been developed in the


country to supplant the village moneylender, the predominant source of rural
finance, as the terms on which he made finance available have generally
been detrimental to the development of Indian agriculture.
The Co-Operative sector can be further classified into 4 types

 Primary Co-Operative credit societies


 Central Co-Operative banks
 State Co-Operative banks
 Land development banks
Table 1.1 below gives the names of all banks, which comes under
different classification. For the purpose of assessment of performance of
banks, the Reserve Bank of India categories them as public sector banks, old
private sector banks, new private sector banks and foreign banks.

1.5 PRIORITY SECTOR

Priority sector is the most important sector in India and more importance is
given for the development of this sector. Reserve Bank of India through periodical
Returns received from them by banks monitors priority sector lending by commercial
banks. Performance of banks is also reviewed in the various fora set up under the Lead
Bank Scheme (at State, District and Block levels).

Broadly, the priority sector comprises the following:

1. Agriculture

2. Small scale industries (including setting up of industrial estates)

3. Small road and water transport operators (owning up to 10 vehicles).


4. Small business (Original cost of equipment used for business not to exceed Rs
20 lakh)

5. Retail trade (advances to private retail traders up to Rs.10 lakh)

6. Professional and self-employed persons (borrowing limit not exceeding Rs.10


lakh of which not more than Rs.2 lakh for working capital; in the case of qualified
medical practitioners setting up practice in rural areas, the limits are Rs 15 lakh
and Rs 3 lakh respectively and purchase of one motor vehicle within these limits
can be included under priority sector)

7. State sponsored organizations for Scheduled Castes/Scheduled Tribes

8. Education (educational loans granted to individuals by banks)

9. Housing [both direct and indirect – loans up to Rs.5 lakh (direct loans up to Rs
10 lakh in urban/ metropolitan areas), Loans up to Rs 1 lakh and Rs 2 lakh for
repairing of houses in rural/ semi-urban and urban areas respectively].

10. Consumption loans (under the consumption credit scheme for weaker
sections)

11. Micro-credit provided by banks either directly or through any intermediary;


Loans to self help groups (SHGs) / Non Governmental Organizations (NGOs) for
on lending to SHGs.

12. Loans to the software industry (having credit limit not exceeding Rs 1 crore
from the banking system)

13. Loans to specified industries in the food and agro-processing sector having
investment in plant and machinery up to Rs 5 crore.

14. Investment by banks in venture capital (venture capital funds/ companies


registered with SEBI)
As per the current interest rate policy, in the case of loans up to Rs 2 lakh, the
interest rate should not exceed the prime-lending rate (PLR) of the bank, while in the case
of loans above Rs 2 lakh; banks are free to determine the interest rate.

1.6 INTRODUCTION TO LOAN

A loan is a type of debt. This article focuses exclusively on monetary loans,


although, in practice, any material object might be lent. Like all debt instruments, a loan
entails the redistribution of financial assets over time, between the lender and the
borrower. The borrower initially does receive an amount of money from the lender,
which he has to pay back, usually but not always in regular installments, to the lender.
This service is generally provided at a cost, referred to as interest on the debt. A loan is of
the annuity type if the amount paid periodically (for paying off and interest together) is
fixed.

A borrower may be subject to certain restrictions known as loan covenants under


the terms of the loan. Acting as a provider of loans is one of the principal tasks for
financial institutions. For other institutions, issuing of debt contracts such as bonds is a
typical source of funding.

Legally, a loan is a contractual promise between two parties where one party, the
creditor, agrees to provide a sum of money to a debtor, who promises to return the money
to the creditor either in one lump sum or in parts over a fixed period in time. This
agreement may include providing additional payments of rental charges on the funds
advanced to the debtor for the time the funds are in the hands of the debtor (interest).

TYPES OF LOANS
SECURED

A secured loan is a loan in which the borrower pledges some asset (e.g. a car or property)
as collateral for the loan.

A mortgage loan is a very common type of debt instrument, used by many individuals to
purchase housing. In this arrangement, the money is used to purchase the property. The
financial institution, however, is given security — a lien on the title to the house — until
the mortgage is paid off in full. If the borrower defaults on the loan, the bank would have
the legal right to repossess the house and sell it, to recover sums owing to it.

In some instances, a loan taken out to purchase a new or used car may be secured by the
car, in much the same way as a mortgage is secured by housing. The duration of the loan
period is considerably shorter — often corresponding to the useful life of the car. There
are two types of auto loans, direct and indirect. A direct auto loan is where a bank gives
the loan directly to a consumer. An indirect auto loan is where a car dealership acts as an
intermediary between the bank or financial institution and the consumer.

A type of loan especially used in limited partnership agreements is the recourse note.

A stock hedge loan is a special type of securities lending whereby the stock of a borrower
is hedged by the lender against loss, using options or other hedging strategies to reduce
lender risk.[citation needed]

A pre-settlement loan is a non-recourse debt, this is when a monetary loan is given based
on the merit and awardable amount in a lawsuit case. Only certain types of lawsuit cases
are eligible for a pre-settlement loan.[citation needed] This is considered a secured non-recourse
debt due to the fact if the case reaches a verdict in favor of the defendant the loan is
forgiven.

UNSECURED

Unsecured loans are monetary loans that are not secured against the borrower's assets.
These may be available from financial institutions under many different guises or
marketing packages:

 credit card debt


 personal loans
 bank overdrafts
 credit facilities or lines of credit
 corporate bonds

The interest rates applicable to these different forms may vary depending on the lender
and the borrower. These may or may not be regulated by law. In the United Kingdom,
when applied to individuals, these may come under the Consumer Credit Act 1974.

ABUSES IN LENDING

Predatory lending is one form of abuse in the granting of loans. It usually involves
granting a loan in order to put the borrower in a position that one can gain advantage over
him or her. Where the moneylender is not authorised, it could be considered a loan shark.

Usury is a different form of abuse, where the lender charges excessive interest. In
different time periods and cultures the acceptable interest rate has varied, from no interest
at all to unlimited interest rates. Credit card companies in some countries have been
accused by consumer organizations of lending at usurious interest rates and making
money out of frivolous "extra charges". Abuses can also take place in the form of the
customer abusing the lender by not repaying the loan or with an intent to defraud the
lender.

UNITED STATES TAXES

Most of the basic rules governing how loans are handled for tax purposes in the United
States are uncodified by both Congress (the Internal Revenue Code) and the Treasury
Department (Treasury Regulations — another set of rules that interpret the Internal
Revenue Code).[2] Yet such rules are universally accepted.

1. A loan is not gross income to the borrower: Since the borrower has the
obligation to repay the loan, the borrower has no accession to wealth.
2. The lender may not deduct the amount of the loan: The rationale here is that
one asset (the cash) has been converted into a different asset (a promise of
repayment). Deductions are not typically available when an outlay serves to create
a new or different asset.
3. The amount paid to satisfy the loan obligation is not deductible by the
borrower.

4. Repayment of the loan is not gross income to the lender: In effect, the promise
of repayment is converted back to cash, with no accession to wealth by the lender.

5. Interest paid to the lender is included in the lender’s gross income: Interest
paid represents compensation for the use of the lender’s money or property and
thus represents profit or an accession to wealth to the lender. Interest income can
be attributed to lenders even if the lender doesn’t charge a minimum amount of
interest.

6. Interest paid to the lender may be deductible by the borrower: In general,


interest paid in connection with the borrower’s business activity is deductible,
while interest paid on personal loans are not deductible. The major exception here
is interest paid on a home mortgage.

INCOME FROM DISCHARGE OF INDEBTEDNESS

Although a loan does not start out as income to the borrower, it becomes income
to the borrower if the borrower is discharged of indebtedness. Thus, if a debt is
discharged, then the borrower essentially has received income equal to the amount of the
indebtedness. The Internal Revenue Code lists “Income from Discharge of Indebtedness”
in Section 62(a) (12) as a source of gross income.

Example: X owes Y $50,000. If Y discharges the indebtedness, then X no longer owes Y


$50,000. For purposes of calculating income, this should be treated the same way as if Y
gave X $50,000.

For a more detailed description of the “discharge of indebtedness”, look at Section 108
(Cancellation of Debt (COD) Income) of the Internal Revenue Code.

DEEPOSITS GROWTH & TREND RATE

The figure clearly indicates the value of deposits and growth rate
of advances of SBI. The deposits of SBI over the past 4 years show a
positive trend. The growth and trend rate also shows a positive trend. It
shows the bank performance in advances is satisfactory.
Long an arm of the Indian government's infrastructure, agricultural,
and industrial development policies, SBI has been forced to revamp its
operations since competition was introduced into the country's commercial
banking system. As part of that effort, SBI has been rolling out its own
network of automated teller machines, as well as developing anytime-
anywhere banking services through Internet and other technologies. SBI also
has taken advantage of the deregulation of the Indian banking sector to enter
the bancassurance, assets management, and securities brokering sectors. In
addition, SBI has been working on reigning in its branch network, reducing
its payroll, and strengthening its loan portfolio. In 2003, SBI reported
revenue of $10.36 billion and total assets of $104.81 billion.
The establishment of the British colonial government in India brought
with it calls for the formation of a Western-style banking system, if only to
serve the needs and interests of the British imperial government and of the
European trading houses doing business there. The creation of a national
banking system began at the beginning of the 19th century.
The first component of what was later to become the State Bank of
India was created in 1806, in Calcutta. Called the Bank of Calcutta, it was
also the country's first joint stock company. Originally established to serve
the city's interests, the bank was granted a charter to serve all of Bengal in
1809, becoming the Bank of Bengal. The introduction of Western-style
banking instituted deposit savings accounts and, in some cases, investment
services. The Bank of Bengal also received the right to issue its own notes,
which became legal currency within the Bengali region. This right enabled
the bank to establish a solid financial foundation, building an interest-free
capital base.
The loss of the government-backed balances was soon compensated
by India's rapid economic development at the end of the 19th century. The
building of a national railroad network launched the country into a new era,
seeing the rise of cash-crop farming, a mining industry, and widespread
industrial development. The three presidency banks took active roles in
financing this development. The banks also extended their range of services
and operations, although for the time being were excluded from the foreign
exchange market.
By the beginning of the 20th century, India's banking industry boasted
a host of new arrivals, and particularly foreign banks authorized to exchange
currency. The growth of the banking sector, and the development of
indigenous banks, in turn created a need for a larger "bankers' bank." At the
same time, the Indian government had outgrown its colonial background and
now required a more centralized banking institution. These factors led to the
decision to merge the three presidency banks into a new, single and
centralized banking institution, the Imperial Bank of India.

In 1926, a government commission recommended the creation of a


true central bank. While some proposed converting the Imperial Bank into a
central banking organization for the country, the commission rejected this
idea and instead recommended that the Imperial Bank be transformed into a
purely commercial banking institution. The government took up the
commission's recommendations, drafting a new bill in 1927. Passage of the
new legislation did not occur until 1935, however, with the creation of the
Reserve Bank of India. That bank took over all central-banking functions.
The Imperial Bank then converted to full commercial status, which
accordingly allowed it to enter a number of banking areas, such as currency
exchange and trustee and estate management, from which it had previously
been restricted. Despite the loss of its role as a government banking office,
the Imperial Bank continued to provide banking services to the Reserve
Bank, particularly in areas where the Reserve Bank had not yet established
offices. At the same time, the Imperial Bank retained its position as a
bankers' bank.
In 1951, the new government launched its first Five Year Plan,
targeting in particular the development of the country's rural areas. The lack
of a banking infrastructure in these regions led the government to develop a
state-owned banking entity to fill the gap. As part of that process, the
Imperial Bank was nationalized and then integrated with other existing
government-owned banking components. The result was the creation of the
State Bank of India, or SBI, in 1955.

The new state-owned bank now controlled more than one-fourth of


India's total banking industry. That position was expanded at the end of the
decade, when new legislation was passed providing for the takeover by the
State Bank of eight regionally based, government-controlled banks. As such
the Banks of Bikaner, Jaipur, Indore, Mysore, Patiala, Hyderabad,
Saurashtra, and Travancore became subsidiaries of the State Bank.
Following the 1963 merger of the Bikaner and Jaipur banks, their seven
remaining subsidiaries were converted into associate banks.
In the early 1960s, the State Bank's network already contained nearly
500 branches and sub-offices, as well as the three original head offices
inherited from the presidency bank era. Yet the State Bank now began an era
of expansion, acting as a motor for India's industrial and agricultural
development that was to transform it into one of the world's largest financial
networks. Indeed, by the early 1990s, the State Bank counted nearly 15,000
branches and offices throughout India, giving it the world's single largest
branch network.

SBI played an extremely important role in developing India's rural


regions, providing the financing needed to modernize the country's
agricultural industry and develop new irrigation methods and cattle breeding
techniques, and backing the creation of dairy farming, as well as pork and
poultry industries. The bank also provided backing for the development of
the country's infrastructure, particularly on a local level, where it provided
credit coverage and development assistance to villages. The nationalization
of the banking sector itself, an event that occurred in 1969 under the
government led by Indira Gandhi, gave SBI new prominence as the country's
leading bank.

Even as it played a primary role in the Indian government's industrial


and agricultural development policies, SBI continued to develop its
commercial banking operations. In 1972, for example, the bank began
offering merchant banking services. By the mid-1980s, the bank's merchant
banking operations had grown sufficiently to support the creation of a
dedicated subsidiary, SBI Capital Markets, in 1986.
The following year, the company launched another subsidiary, SBI
Home Finance, in collaboration with the Housing Development Finance
Corporation. Then in the early 1990s, SBI added subsidiaries SBI Factors
and Commercial Services, and then launched institutional investor services.

SBI was allowed to dominate the Indian banking sector for more than
two decades. In the early 1990s, the Indian government kicked off a series of
reforms aimed at deregulating the banking and financial industries. SBI was
now forced to brace itself for the arrival of a new wave of competitors eager
to enter the fast-growing Indian economy's commercial banking sector. Yet
years as a government-run institution had left SBI bloated--the civil-servant
status of its employees had encouraged its payroll to swell to more than
230,000. The bureaucratic nature of the bank's management left little room
for personal initiative, nor incentive for controlling costs.

The bank also had been encouraged to increase its branch network,
with little concern for profitability. As former Chairman Dipankar Baku told
the Banker in the early 1990s: "In the aftermath of bank nationalization
everyone lost sight of the fact that banks had to be profitable. Banking was
more to do with social policy and perhaps that was relevant at the time. For
the last two decades the emphasis was on physical expansion."
SBI had long been present overseas, operating some 50 offices in 34
countries, including full-fledged subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, the
United States, and elsewhere. In 1995 the bank set up a new subsidiary, SBI
Commercial and International Bank Ltd., to back its corporate and
international banking services into the 1990s, SBI had yet to establish an
automated teller network; indeed, it had not even automated its information
systems. SBI responded by launching an ambitious technology drive, rolling
out its own ATM network, then teaming up with GE Capital to issue its own
credit card. In the early 2000s, the bank began cross-linking its banking
network with its ATM network and Internet and telephone access, rolling
out "anytime, anywhere" banking access. By 2002, the bank had succeeded
in networking its 3,000 most profitable branches.

State Bank of India has more than 50 offices in nearly 35 other


countries, including multiple locations in the US, Canada, and Nigeria. The
bank has other units devoted to capital markets, fund management, factoring
and commercial services, and brokerage services. The Reserve Bank of India
owns about 60% of State Bank of India. SBI provides various domestic,
international and NRI products and services, through its vast network in
India and overseas. With an asset base of $126 billion and its reach, it is a
regional banking behemoth.
The government nationalized the bank in 1955, with the Reserve Bank
of India taking a 60% ownership stake. In recent years the bank has focused
on three priorities, 1) reducing its huge staff through Golden handshake
schemes known as the Voluntary Retirement Scheme, which saw many of its
best and brightest defect to the private sector, 2) computerizing its
operations and 3) changing the attitude of its employees (through an
ambitious programme aptly named 'Parivartan' which means change) as a
large number of employees are very rude to customers.
There are seven other associate banks that fall under SBI. They all use
the "State Bank of" name followed by the regional headquarters' name.
These were originally banks belonging to princely states before the
government nationalized them in 1959. In tune with the first Five Year Plan,
emphasizing the development of rural India, the government integrated these
banks with the State Bank of India to expand its rural outreach. The State
Bank group refers to the seven associates and the parent bank. All the banks
use the same logo of a blue keyhole. Currently, the group is merging all the
associate banks into SBI, which will create a "mega bank", and one hopes,
streamline operations and unlock value.
State Bank of India is present in 32 countries, where it has 84 offices
serving the international needs of the bank's foreign customers, and in some
cases conducts retail operations. The focus of these offices is India-related
business. State Bank of India has often acted as guarantor to the Indian
Government, most notably during Chandra Shekhar's tenure as Prime
Minister of India. With more than 9400 branches and a further 4000+
associate bank branches, the SBI has extensive coverage. Following its arch-
rival ICICI Bank, State Bank of India has electronically networked most of
its metropolitan, urban and semi-urban branches under its Core Banking
System(CBS), with over 4500 branches being incorporated so far. The bank
has the largest ATM network in the country having more than 5600 ATMs .
The State Bank of India has had steady growth over its history, though the
Harshad Mehta scam in 1992 marred its image.
In recent years, the bank has sought to expand its overseas operations
by buying foreign banks. It is the only Indian bank to feature in the top 100
world banks in the Fortune Global 500 rating and various other rankings.
According to the Forbes 2000 listing it tops all Indian companies.

 SBI should provide much more customer service, should try and
reduce interest rates to make it’s products more competitive and also
give it’s customers an option of short term repayment period.
 SBI must try and introduce cash back policy on the processing
fee/documentation fee of the short-term loan.
 To speed up loan appraisal, embracement loan if asked from the
customer should be issued fast and interest charged on loans should be
less.
 To introduce cash back policy in shopping center.
 To charge low interest rates on the personal loans, car loans and also
on educational loans.
 Banks should improve the operational efficiency to improve the
processing speed of the loans and reduce the time to provide loans.

CONCLUSION
This project went through all the ways to compare the loans of State Bank of
India with that of other banks. It is satisfying thing to know that State Bank of India is
growing towards a “Service of Excellence”. All the achievements can be given a broader
sky view by applying and considering the findings and suggestions given in this project.
Efforts have been made to know all spectrum of possibilities through which State bank of
India can satisfy their customers more and understandingly. This is observation to let
State bank of India know what actually is hampering in terms of customer service and
satisfaction.

The availability of computerized software much of the technicalities


of the assessment have been largely simplified. The efforts by SBI
constantly update its evaluation procedures, indicate its high level of
professionalism and also explains why it is in a leading position amongst the
nationalized banks. The project can be had with management of borrowing
firms to get better idea about the business, its viability and also the capacity
of management to tackle exceptional situations. Project appraisal methods
try to reduce the subjectivity involved in assessing the capacity of the
Borrowers with respects to repayment capability.
