PREFACE

After the Globalization and the Industrialization of the Indian Economy in 1991, many positive

developments have taken place which includes increase in disposable income, changing life

style and one of the major change has been emergence of new private banks and their reforms.

Graduation in Business Management is a three year course to provide a practical outlook to the

next generation entrepreneurs in addition to the theoretical knowledge provided in the

college. After completing the 2ndyear in the college, it is compulsory for a student to undertakeSummer Internship Project (SIP) in an organization for a duration of 1 month.Project work refers

to supervised assignment at an approved company. Project work emphasizes the integration of

academic and hand-on learning. It gives an opportunity to apply course work to practical solutions.

Italso helps to explore career options and gain valuable skills.

The project works on Priority Banking its services and comparison among competitors, through

focusing on the main objective of finding out customer perception level and the satisfaction of

those who are already availing priority services. A personal observation through questionnaire

enabled me to achieve the objectives. The areas covered were basically north Delhi with a samplesize of 100 respondents, from where the data was collected and analyzed to arrive at a conclusion.

The report covers all the aspects from the research with statistical and graphical analysis.

My project work at Axis bank, Delhi has been a great learning experience. During the project I

had undertaken a pilot survey and followed it by a structured questionnaire. The present report is

a sincere attempt on my behalf to present information, facts and findings on the stated research

title. The expectation of the project is to meet the requirements of the company.

LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY:

With the findings of this report, one cannot assume that this research can solve all the problems

under the preview of the research title. There are a few limitations and so the results cannot be

generalized.

Research tends to be fragmentary in its approach as a result of which it becomes difficultto have an overall perspective of the research problem, to be viewed and studied. Samples

taken are on random basis and hence it cannot be assured that it will represent the universe

accurately.

Research is a time consuming job and even though the principles of research are based ona scientific basis, the actual application, analysis and findings are time consuming.

As far as the interpretation of result is concerned, there are chances of certainmiscalculations or misinterpretations.

CONCLUSIONS

RECOMMENDATION

55/63

CONCLUSION:

The purpose of this study was to know scope of priority banking by interpreting the customer

response in terms of their satisfaction level derived for those who are already availing priority

banking services and also knowing the perception of those banking customers who are availing

the routine banking and channel facilities but not the priority services. Even though the research

was undertaken for a period of 1 month, several findings would be highlighted from the survey

which was done with 100 respondents.

One biggest challenge that various banks are facing today is competition which is very intense

because almost all the banks even including the nationalized banks are offering the priority

banking services. All of them are focusing on the same market in their own way. So they all need

to provide their services in a way that most of the customers are not only satisfied rather they feel

delighted

One thing that can be traced out from the study is that private banks in this priority sector can becategorized into two parts: on one side are those who are asking for customer relationship value of

5 lakhs or less like Axis bank, HDFC, ICICI bank, on the other side are HSBC,Standard Charted,

Citi bank whose customer relationship value is in the range of 20-30 lakhs.

The number of services offered in prioirity banking are numerous. However the study shows that

customers are attracted only towards few services. They are:

Free door step banking Dedicated relationship manager Rendering services on priority ATM withdrawal limit up to 1,50,000

There are few services in priority banking which people do not attach much importance to. These

services are:

Free outstation cheque collection Free phone and net banking Global help

Axis bank and HDFC bank-are the two banks which are giving an additional benefit in terms of

free insurance cover to their priority customers.Axis bank is providing a high cover of 5 lacs

whereas HDFC is providing a cover of just 1 lac. HSBC bank and Citi bank are two banks


56/63

56

whose focus on global help is maximum and seeems dedicated in providing assistance to their

customers while they are on a foreign tour.

The banking services are mostly used by businessmen and channel facilities are mostly used by

people in services.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

Once the results are interpreted from the better informed perspective of the company officials,

these recommendations can be used as a starting point for improvement. Thoughtful consideration

is required for some of the recommendations:

Increasing the ATM withdrawal limit from the present 50,000 to 1,50,000.

The approach of providing free door step banking should be made flexible as like othermultinational banks rather than specific on once a day or twice a week.

One of the USPs of priority banking is dedicated relationship manager, so it should focus its

emphasis on handling it properly.

As per the study, 25% of the respondents are still not aware of the priority banking services,so the

company can put some more emphasis on advertising and promoting its priority banking services

in order to increase the customer base.
