ABSTRACT
Consumer awareness is about making the consumer aware of his/her rights. In terms of economic output, rural India accounts for
almost half (48%) of the countrys economy, and the rural markets have the potential to reach $500 billion by 2020.
E-banking was gradually replacing the traditional branch banking system. Customer awareness is necessary to identify the
key success factors to survive in intense competition and increase the market share.
The objective of the research paper is to assess the customer awareness about different services provided by the SBI particularly in rural India.
This research paper is based on seco
State Bank Of India, Reserve Bank of India and from different oral primary sources.
The consumers in the rural areas lack awareness about various schemes and e-banking services of SBI. The SBI should
launch campaign to educate and create awareness to consumers.
