The introduction and application of the concept of customer services entered in a

welcoming way in India only after independence. The banking system in India has come

a long way during the last two centuries. Its growth was faster and the coverage wider

since 1969. In 1969a major position of banking sector was entrusted to the public sector.

This process continued and embraced few private banks in 1980.

The transfer of ownership of banks from the public to private was aimed at

entrusting the banks with greater responsibilities for the economic development of India

by taking banking services to the masses and taking special care of the weaker section of

the society and the priority sector of the economy. Though the number of banks offices

magnitude and the variety of their operations has grown considerably during the period of

near about three decades, but it appears that the banking sector has entered into serious

among customers.

For overcoming this problem, banking industry should seek introspection and adopt

refined management techniques. It has been endeavor of this study to analyze the present

state of various banks keeping in view the primary data has been collected regarding the

present state of loan schemes in various banks by using a questionnaire.

 INTRODUCTION OF BANK

In the modern era, Banking constitutes the fundamental basis of economic growth. The

term is being used since longtime but there the benefits of using money as medium of

exchange, people would deposits and make loans i.e. the modern commercial banks.

In India as early as Vedic Era, banking existing in its crude form. The words of “Manu”

contain reference deposits, pledge policy of loans and rates of interest etc. The original

banking operations were in the hands of indigenous banks that dominated the finance to

the extent that they provide credit to the government of the day also.

The origin of the word” Bank” is shrouded in mystery. According to one viewpoint, the

Italian business house carrying on crude form of banking were called “Banchi Bancheri”

According to other viewpoints, the word bank is derived from German word “Banck”

which means a heap or a mound. Subsequently Italians started using the name “Banco”.

Which meant accumulation of either money or stock. In England, the issue of paper

money by the government was referred to as raising a bank. But it can be safely assumed

that the word bank is derived from Italian or German.

8
Definition of Bank
The first bank was “Casa de san Giorgio” that was established in 1148. To define

the bank is not an easy task, as it appears one, which accepts deposits from public and

lends money.

“Bank is an establishment or custody of money which pays out on customers order”.

Concise oxford dictionary

“Bank is an financial intermediary, a dealer in loan and debts”

-Cairn cross

“Bank company is one which transect the business of banking which means accepting for

the purpose of lending or investment or deposits from the public payable on demand or

other wise and withdrawal by cheque, draft order or otherwise”

-Under section 5(B) banking regulation act 1949

in short, a bank is an institution that accepts deposit withdrawal by cheque and makes

loans and advances for the purpose of earning profits.

9
Thus:

A bank is a commercial establishment-a dealer in debts which:

Aims at earning profit on demand or otherwise and withdrawal by cheque, draft, order or

otherwise”

-Under section 5(B) banking regulation act 1949

in short, a Bank is an institution that accepts deposit withdrawal by cheque and makes

loans and advances for the purpose of earning profits.

Thus

A bank is a commercial establishment-a dealer in debts which:

- Aims at earning profit

- By accepting deposits from public which

- Are repayable on demand or otherwise through

- Cheques, draft or otherwise and

- Which are used for lending or investment.

liquidity, profitability etc.

repetitive transactions and are withdrawn only once. If the borrower need funds again or

wants renewal of an existing loan, a fresh request is made to the bank.

This borrower is required to negotiate every time; he is taking a new loan or renewing an

existing loan. Banker is at liberty to grant or refuse such a request depending upon his

owner cash resources and credit policy of the control bank.

mandatory for the banks to grant a portion of bank credit to big customers in the form of

loans, which may be for various maturities. The RBI has also permitted the banks to roll

over such loans i.e. to extend the loan for another period at the expiry of the tenure of the

first loan.

more than one year and also meant for the purpose of capital asset for establishment of

companies. But in oct. 1995, RBI permitted banks to sanction bridge loans /Interim

LIMITATIONS OF STUDY

 It is very small research, which may be insufficient to give the real picture scope

of the retail loan in Panipat and its catchments area.

 The research is based on collected data and the researcher is not responsible for

any wrong inference drawn due to the incorrect filling of the questionnaire by the

respondents.

 The method of result is also limited to the reliability of method of investigations,

measurement and analysis of data.

 Auto loan are not included in the study of retail loans.

 Education loan are not providing by other banks like ICICI, HDFC, & IDBI. So, it

cannot compared with other banks.

 People were not interested in filling questionnaire properly.

 Loan scheme has been revised very soon. So the study is effective till July 05.

 Education loan is provided for some special customers. It is not possible for every

customer to get Education Loans

90
SUGGESTIONS

• Interest rate, processing fees, tenure, margin money-all these are important in

loans-housing loan, auto loans, personal loan, education loans etc. So bank should

revise all above keeping in view all other banks. Bank should appoint some

marketing executive for this purpose who can give information of market and

other banks, revision of loan timely so that our bank can revise it very soon.

These marketing executive should give report to Head Office directly for timely

processing so that as early as possible, market can be fully captured.

• Loan limit of all loans should be increasing keeping in other view private sector

banks and nationalized banks.

• One of the major weakness of bank of Punjab is processing timely. As today

every person is very busy. He cannot more days for taking loan so. Processing

time should be reduced. But this processing time can be reduced only when the

sanction authority is necessary for branch offices.

• As in nationalized banks, there is not negative file, but in bank of Punjab but there

is a list of negative profile. This is the main reason of the nationalized banks

having more customers. So. Negative file should be reduced or eliminated.

91
Other private sector banks like ICICI, HDFC etc. have lower interest rate than BOP. So

the bank should reduce it interest rate for being in the competition with these banks.’’

Bank of Punjab is lower loan amount than other banks, so it should increase its loans

amount for attracting customer towards it products loans .

The bank should give authority to all its branches for providing loans.

92
CONCLUSION
Bank of Punjab such a great reputation that it can very well go out and sell it product to

the out sides customers and be a winner. These are the responses from the people who

knew about Bank of Punjab but those of them who did not know it felt very happy when

the came to know that group. Bank of Punjab has come out with a new life insurance

venture. The only points now is, that when the company enjoys such a great reputations.
