50

that the sale e=ecutives have given them wrong information about product and services offered!

FINDINGS: 0ll the private and public sector banks are recogni<ing importance of the relationship management in their growth and customer retention! "he officials try to make best relation with the customers! /taff member gives regular updates to their customers and information of the product and their services! "he registers and files are systematically maintained on a daily basis and in an organi<ed manner! ,fficials employed find themselves in much burden as there are very less number of sales e=ecutives! 2ost of the respondents are having more than two accounts and holds more than two products with #$%& Bank! Bank has shown better utili<ation of cash balance of customer by cross selling other products! 0ccording to respondents feedback it is observed that bank is in need to increase their branches in $elhi region as well as pay concern to increase their 0"2 network! >ith the help of research it has been found that most of them prefer brand name and service facilities and some of them are influenced by e=isting customer Freater retention of customers is being needed as they are offering various products and services! "his enables a great understanding of what customers
51

may e=pect from the bank and what to offer to them! "his leads to defining where each customer is in his relationship with the bank so that crossselling can be done! Futu#& P.an 'aunch 354 :ew Branches! #$%& Bank plan to raise ( * @,344 crore in capital elocate branches to Kn-Banked rural K6!

#$%& Bank plans to set up :B%&

52

RECOMMENDATIONS &ontinuous interaction with the customers is necessary in order to continue with relationship Building activities for long term prospective! "he bank should come up with more branches in other locations in $elhi city! "he bank should open more 0"2 networks! "o increase the number of customers #$%& Bank should also offer some products for small business! (%or e=ample- Rero balance savings and current account!* It is seen that most of the customers are not aware of products and services offered by #$%& Bank! "hus #$%& Bank should pay some attention on 0dvertisement! #$%& Bank has very less sales force than other banks, this is a reason that customers have lack of attention towards #$%& Bank! "his part can be improved by increasing the sales force! 0ccount opening process in #$%& Bank is comparatively complicated and "ime-consuming in case of current accounts #$%& Bank should consider time factor as it is very important!

53

CONCL"SION:
#$%& Bank has a strong brand name in the $elhi city market! "he people of $elhi city are good in investment part and most of them go for %i=ed $eposits and 'ife Insurance rather investing in 2utual fund products! "hus there is a need to convert the people in mutual fund and credit cards for increasing profitability of bank! #$%& Bank has always sought profitable customers and generated profit from them and taken steps by converting the non profitable customer to profitable customers! &ustomers can be pulled into profitability band when the customer is satisfied with the product and services which he is using! &ustomer satisfaction plays an important role as customers are satisfied they will look for some other product! 0t this state elationship 2anager is very important who can suggest the customer which product to use with reference to his need! "hey must maintain mutual relationship between the relationship manager and customer! & 2 lead to better understanding of all aspects of customer behaviour regarding issues and benefits offered by a company and helps differentiate itself from others!

"he pro9ect was full of learning and e=periments and provides me with a great knowledge about banking sector! I have interacted with a lot of people personally during these two months! 0 study of &ompany profile and 6roduct profile was done before starting my pro9ect which helps me a lot while interacting with the people! If the interviewer is not having ade-uate knowledge of the company and
54

product profile then he will not be able to get the desired information from the respondent! $uring the course of time, I tried to get all the ob9ective of the pro9ect to be fulfilled!
