EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF THE PROJECT


This project report is based on the survey conducted by me for the completion of my internship programme in Jammu & Kashmir Bank, Srinagar. The project is titled as A study on Effectiveness of Service Delivery with reference to Jammu &Kashmir Bank, Srinagar. My survey was completed within a time constraint of two months within the space boundaries of my research limited to parts of Srinagar only. Since my main objective was to focus on the effectiveness of Service Delivery in Jammu & Kashmir Bank, so I had to make use of certain tools that would help me in achieving my objective. So, a questionnaire was prepared, for Jammu & Kashmir Bank customers. Apart from this tool some other tools like telecalling and personal interviews were also incorporated for the purpose of gaining information from the respondents. After gathering the customer responses, the data was tabulated and was thoroughly analysed in order to get meaningful information from the data. After the analysis was completed, it was found that there were many marketing strategies that Jammu & Kashmir Bank was using in the said area intentionally or unintentionally and these strategies are useful for them to survive in todays era of cut throat competition. The strategies that I found out to be functioning from the Jammu & Kashmir Bank side were: Brand Awareness. Cross selling. Quick and better services. Target oriented Banking. Targeting middle and upper class customer Personal attention and employee friendliness. Physical Evidence. Knowledgeable sales persons. Variety of products. One to One marketing.

After analyzing the data I came to the conclusion that most of the Jammu & Kashmir Bank customers are satisfied with the bank and want to continue banking with the Jammu & Kashmir Bank. And the driving force behind all this are the Services Delivery strategies mentioned above. After completion of the project I was able to get the insights of the corporate sector industries to a very large extent and this has helped me greatly in reshaping my mind and let me know the differences between the real world and the imaginary one. This time I find myself moved up the ladder both professionally and academically.

1. INDUSTRIAL BACKGROUND
The evolution of the commercial banking in India has been governed by the social objective of expanding the reach of banking service and mobilization of domestic savings. The roots of this social character of Indian banking can be traced to the passing of the state bank of India Act, 1955, by which the undertaking of the imperial Bank of India was taken over by the newly constituted State Bank of India (SBI). An Act of Parliament, nationalizing the former imperial Bank of India, established the SBI in 1955. this institution and its seven associate banks, which become SBI subsidiaries in 1960, were distinct from the other major Indian commercial banks which remained in private hands until two rounds of nationalization in 1969 (14 banks) and, in 1980 (6 banks). In Feb. 1969, the Govt. of Indias (GOIs) nationalization of 14 largest private sector banks was the culmination of pressures to use the banks as public instruments of development. The GOI imposed Social control on banks, of which priority lending was a major aspect. It introduced restrictions on advances by banking companies. These were intended to ensure that bank advances were confined not only to large scale industries and big business houses but were also directed, in due proportion to other important sectors like Agriculture, Small Scale Industries and Exports. Since 1969, there has been a significant spread of banking habit in the economy and banks have been able to mobilize a large amount of savings. However, by 1980s, it was generally perceived that the operational efficiency of banks was declining. Banks were characterized by low profitability, high and growing non-performing assets, and low capital base. Poor internal controls and the lack of proper disclosure norms led to many problems being kept under cover. The quality of customer service did not keep pace with the increasing expectations. All these reasons led to the next phase of nationalization. The 1969 nationalization had raised public sector banks share of deposit from 31% to 86% while the nationalization of 1980 raised the same to 92%. In 1991, a fresh era in Indian banking began with the introduction of banking sector reforms as part of the over-all economic liberalization in India.

1.1. CREDIT MARKET STRUCTURE


In India, given the relatively underdeveloped capital market and with little, with minimal resources, firms and economic entities depend largely on financial intermediaries to meet their fund requirements. In terms of supply of credit, financial intermediaries can be proudly categorized as institutional and non-institutional. The major institutional supplies of credit in India are banks and non-bank financial institutions (that is, developed financial institutions (FIs), other financial institutions (FIs) and non-banking finance companies (NBFC) the non-institutional are unorganized sources of credit include indigenous bankers and money lenders. Information about the unorganized sector is limited and not readily available. An important feature of the credit market is its term structure: (a) Short-term credit, (b) Medium-term credit and (c) Long term credit.

1.2. STRUCTURE OF THE BANKING SECTOR


The banking sector in India functions under the umbrella of RBI. The RBI Act was passed in 1934 and the RBI was constituted as Apex Bank. The Banking Regulations Act was passed in 1949. This Act brought the RBI under Govt. control. Under the act the RBI got wide ranging powers for supervision and control of banks. The act also vested licensing powers and the authority to conduct to inspections with the RBI. Banks in India can broadly classified as Commercial Banks, Regional Rural Banks or (RRBs) and scheduled commercial or (SCBs) and cooperative Banks. The SCBs can be classified into the following three categories: Public Sector Banks. (PSBs) - SBI and its associates, and Nationalized Banks. Private Sector Banks Old and New. Foreign Banks Banks of Non Indian Origin. The number of commercial banks in the country is 101, of which 27 are PSBs, 24 are Old private banks, 8 are new private sector banks and 42 are foreign banks. These 101 banks had total assets worth Rs. 11,104 billion as on March 31, 2004, and a network of 50,855

Chandigarh Business School Of Administration

Page 12

branches as on June 30, 2004., making them the most active and predominant financial intermediaries in the country. Commercial Banks ---------------- (101) Public Sector Banks --------------- (27) Foreign Banks in India -------------(42) Private Sector Banks ----------------(32) Old Private banks -------------------- (24) New Private Banks ------------------ (08) State Bank of India ------------------ (01) State Bank Associates ---------------- (07) Since the advent of the banking sector reforms in 1991, the Indian banking industry has undergone a great transformation. However, the banking industry is still dominated by PSBs and development banks.

1.3. NON-BANKING FINANCE COMPANIES


Non-banking finance companies (NBFCs) are financial intermediaries engaged primarily in the business of accepting deposits and marketing loans and advances, investments, leasing, hire purchase etc, NBFCs are of various types, such as loan companies, investment companies, hire purchase, finance companies, equipment leasing companies, mutual benefit financial companies also known as Nidhis miscellaneous, nonbanking companies also known as chit funds and residuary non baking companies (RNBCs). Although NBFCs in India existed for a long time, they short into prominence in late 80s and early 90s. During 1991-1998,the total assets of NBFCs increased at a

compounded Annual growth rate (CAGR) of 36.07% customer orientation, concentration in the main financial centers and attractive rate on return offered by them were some of the reasons for their rapid growth. As on march 31, 1999, the total assets of non-banking finance companies NBFCs/RNBCs (Residuary non-banking companies) aggregated Rs.470.5 billion, representing nearly 5% of total assets of all SCBs.

2. JAMMU AND KASHMIR BANK PROFILE

2.1. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND


Traditional moneylenders performed the entire banking in the State of Jammu & Kashmir that too at exorbitant interest rates. This was round about during the early 19th century. At the same time some banks like Punjab National Bank, Grindlays Bank and the Imperial Bank of India functioned in the State to a limited extent. The role of these banks was reduced to the acceptance of deposits, as they could not grant loan and advances to the people of the State owing to the statutory limitations. Under this scenario banks could not ameliorate the financial and social position of the people of the State. To overcome this crisis, the then ruler of the State, Maharaja Hari Singh conceived the idea to establish a bank to help people of the State to come out of the economic backwardness. The scheme of forming the bank was formulated by an eminent banker Sir Sorabji N. Pochkanwala, the then Managing Director of the Central Bank of India. The outcome of the efforts of Sir Sorabji resulted in establishment of the Jammu & Kashmir Bank Limited on October 1st, 1938. The bank formally commenced its business on July 4th, 1939. The Bank opened its first branch at Residency Road, Srinagar. Encouraged by the support of the public, it opened another branch at Jammu. By 1946, the number of branches of the bank went up to twelve and a half. From the small beginning the bank has now grown to become a giant with a network of 560 branches spread over the length and breadth of the country. Since the starting of the bank continuous changes have taken place in the financial services scenario. Banking in J&K underwent tremendous transformation. Besides exhibiting its commercial character, the bank has been meeting the social obligations of the people too. The Jammu and Kashmir Bank Ltd., is the first bank of its nature and composition as a State owned bank in the country. The State Government besides contributing more than half of the issued capital also appointed it as its bankers for general banking and treasury business. The bank had to coup up with several serious problems, particularly at the time of independence, when two of its branches at Muzaffarabad and Mirpur fell to the other in

Page 14

1947. However, the State government came with assistance of Rs.6.00 lacs to meet the claims. Latest communications of RBI (Jan.2011) reveal that the Govt. of Jammu & Kashmir like other banks has signed an MOU with RBI in terms of which RBI has become bankers to State government. Following the extension of central laws to the State of Jammu & Kashmir, the bank was defined as a Government company as per the provisions of Indian Companies Act, 1956. The era of nationalization of the major banks, when the union government announced control on banking, the bank began to emerge from its regional shell by opening branches beyond the state boundaries & emerged as a leading bank. In 1971, the bank was included in the second schedule of the RBI act 1934. It had its first full time chairman following social control measures in banks in the country. Five years later in 1976,it was declared as an A class bank. By the end of 1980 it s branches measure 212 with aggregated deposits of Rs 191.76 Crores & advances of Rs61.67 Crore The bank Became pioneer in financing different sectors like road transport, horticulture, Hotels, Hostels & House Boats tourism & extended finance to the artisans to promote traditional handicrafts. In fact the bank was the first commercial Indian bank to introduce schemes for financing fruit crops on standing trees in the state of Jammu & Kashmir, a policy that was subsequently emulated by other banks elsewhere in the country. The bank expended its area of operation & widened its credit base by financing schemes like Integral Rural Development (IRDP) SEEUY, PMRY, NRY and other self employment programs sponsored by the State and Central governments. In the year 1983, the bank was granted license from RBI to handle foreign exchange business independently and became the only bank to have its foreign exchange Dealing Department in Srinagar which was later on shifted to Delhi then ultimately to Mumbai under compulsions of Political disturbances prevailing in the State. In 1986, the Jammu & Kashmir Bank became the first and only bank, which was permitted by the RBI to sponsor two regional banks, namely, Kamraz Rural Bank and Jammu Rural

Bank. Recently in the current financial year the bank has merged both the Rural Banks and formed Jammu and Kashmir Grameen Bank which is first of its kind in the country. With the substantial increase in its capital base, the bank is participating more extensively in financing of infrastructure projects. A number of leading Corporate and blue chip companies as well as a number of prominent Public Sector Undertakings of the Indian government have become part of its clientele. The financials of the bank are very strong. The bank deposit instruments have been highly rated by CRISIL (Credit Rating Information Service of India Limited). The reserves were created not only to meet the statutory requirements but also provided for the bad and doubtful debts and for meeting other contingencies. The free reserves which were less than Rs. 1.00 lacs in1944 and Rs. 7.00 lacs in1966 stood at Rs.42.50 lacs in 1975 and less than Rs.1.00 crore in 1979. In a span of just over 16 years, the reserves have grown 10,000 times and crossed the Rs. 100.00 Cr. Mark in 1995, excluding those held for the risk-weighted assets. With continued impressive business results during the last 15 years, the bank has further strengthened its capital base and reserve base which stood at the incredible figure of Rs.3010 Crores, which signifies a commendable 2900% increase in fifteen years from March, 1995. It also substantiates a sound fund management and the relative policy. The capital and the reserves of the bank increased to Rs.3010.46 crores as on 31st March, 2010from 2622.86 crores of the previous year thereby showing increase of 14.7%

To start with, the bank provided quality services to more than 4000 customers with custody of securities worth Rs.915 crores.

And the rest with seven subBroking offices).

2.2. FIXED ASSETS AND PREMISES


The creation of fixed assets got the first attention in 1971 when a piece of land at Azadpur, Delhi was purchased at a total cost of Rs.1.46 lacs. In the subsequent years, the bank made outright purchase of buildings at Andheri, Mumbai, Delhi, Gurgaon and other major places. The bank is taking concrete steps to create more real assets not only in the State of J&K where construction of guest house and training college on owned land is being taken up shortly, but also in other parts of the country like Ahmadabad, Goa and Mumbai where the same has been already acquired. The renovation, face lifting of branches in general and branches identified for full/partial computerization has been completed and these premises now provide cleaner & pollution free atmosphere to the valued customers. The banks long cherished dream came true when Mr. Yashwant Sinha, the then Union Finance Minister inaugurated the new Corporate Headquarters of the bank at a very

following are suggestions, which can be considered for improving the quality of service, and improve the level of satisfaction to the banking customers. 1) The bank is doing good in its area of operation which is revealed by the customer base of the bank, but the bank should consider the ways which will take them to more higher levels of growth and profitability and at the same time focus on improving the effectiveness of the loan and locker facilities of the bank. 2) The banker should properly identify the needs and wants of its customers and suggest to them the services that satisfies there need, to improve the satisfaction level of the customers towards the services offered by the bank. 3) The employees who are new to the organization should be trained regularly so that they get accustomed with the banking operation that will lead in the effective functioning of overall banking operations. 4) The bank should search for latest information technology available for their bank, so that it can be implemented to improve the quality of technology based services. 5) The bank needs to find out the causes behind the in-effective services, such that these services can be created in such am manner that they will work according to customers perception about that particular service of the bank.

12. CONCLUSION
Privatization, the liberalization and globalization are important contemporary forces. Only those enterprise can survive, which work economically and effectively, providing customer-oriented service and using the latest technology. Today, Government owned bodies, particularly in India, are not providing customer satisfaction services, though they have a very huge infrastructure of large base. The truth of this observation becomes obvious when we observe the performance of public sector bank in India, inefficiencies of the public sector banks. Within few years, private sector banks have set a blistering pace of growth, easily beating the growth rate of public sector banks. The base for these private banks is very small, but their share in the total net profit of banking system is disproportionately high. The study has been conducted with the Jammu & Kashmir bank which is a state owned bank. In the competitive market economy, firms can survive only if it could assess the needs of the customer well in advance and meet the same in time. A customer in banking industry expects a good service, which can be fulfilled well only when the banker identifies what the customer needs. With the advent of science and technology, the banks started to offer techno-oriented services and also use this to out beat the competitors. Thus this study to some extent threw the ideas of customers expectation and how the same has been fulfilled by the Bank under study. To conclude, the bank which acts as one of the main facilitator in removing the hindrances of commerce and trade can become an effective, economic and efficient facilitator, through offering a qualitative and quick service to their customers.
