    INTRODUCTION

    The service industry is one of the fastest growing sectors in India

    today. The upcoming sectors, which are really showing the graph towards upwards,

    are Telecom, Banking, Insurance and Health Insurance and General. These sectors

    have really taken over a lot of responsibility of the economy

    The Indian banking can be broadly categorized into nationalized

    (government owned), private banks and specialized banking institutions. TheReserve Bank of India acts a centralized body monitoring any discrepancies and

    shortcoming in the system. Since the nationalization of banks in 1969, the public

    sector banks or the nationalized banks have acquired a place of prominence and

    has since then seen tremendous progress. The need to become highly customer

    focused has forced the slow-moving public sector banks to adopt a fast track

    approach. The unleashing of products and services through the net has galvanized

    players at all levels of the banking and financial institutions market grid to look

    anew at their existing portfolio offering. Conservative banking practices allowed

    Indian banks to be insulated partially from the Asian currency crisis. Indian

    banks are now quoting al higher valuation when compared to banks in other

    Asian countries (viz. Hong Kong, Singapore, Philippines etc.) that have major

    problems linked to huge Non Performing Assets (NPAs) and payment defaults.

    Co-operative banks are nimble footed in approach and armed with efficient

    branch networks focus primarily on the high revenue niche retail segments.

    The Indian banking has finally worked up to the

    competitive dynamics of the new Indian market and is addressing the relevant

  • 8/8/2019 Rashmi Natkut(Mt-II Final Report)

    13/44

    issues to take on the multifarious challenges of globalization. Banks that employ

    IT solutions are perceived to be futuristic and proactive players capable of

    meeting the multifarious requirements of the large customers base. Private

    Banks have been fast on the uptake and are reorienting their strategies using the

    internet as a medium The Internet has emerged as the new and challenging

    frontier of marketing with the conventional physical world tenets being just as

    applicable like in any other marketing medium.

    The Reserve Bank of India act as a centralized bodymonitoring any discrepancies and shortcoming in the system. It is the foremost

    monitoring body in the Indian financial sector. The nationalized banks (i.e.

    government-owned banks) continue to dominate the Indian banking arena.

    Industry estimates indicate that out of 274 commercial banks operating in India,

    223 banks are in the public sector and 51 are in the private sector. The private

    sector bank grid also includes 24 foreign banks that have started their operations

    here. Under the ambit of the nationalized banks come the specialized banking

    institutions. These co-operatives, rural banks focus on areas of agriculture, rural

    development etc.,

    INDUSTRY PROFILE

    3.1 BANKING INDUSTRY

    The Indian Banking industry, which is governed by the Banking Regulation Act of India,

    1949 can be broadly classified into two major categories, non-scheduled banks and scheduled

    banks. Scheduled banks comprise commercial banks and the co-operative banks. In terms of

    ownership, commercial banks can be further grouped into nationalized banks, the State Bank of

    India and its group banks, regional rural banks and private sector banks (the old/ new domestic

    and foreign). These banks have over 67,000 branches spread across the country.

    The first phase of financial reforms resulted in the nationalization of 14 major banks in

    1969 and resulted in a shift from Class banking to Mass banking. This in turn resulted in a

    significant growth in the geographical coverage of banks. Every bank had to earmark a

    minimum percentage of their loan portfolio to sectors identified as priority sectors. The

    manufacturing sector also grew during the 1970s in protected environs and the banking sector

    was a critical source. The next wave of reforms saw the nationalization of 6 more commercial

    banks in 1980. Since then the number of scheduled commercial banks increased four-fold and

    the number of bank branches increased eight-fold.

    After the second phase of financial sector reforms and liberalization of the sector in the

    early nineties, the Public Sector Banks (PSB) s found it extremely difficult to compete with the

    new private sector banks and the foreign banks. The new private sector banks first made their

    appearance after the guidelines permitting them were issued in January 1993. Eight new privatesector banks are presently in operation. These banks due to their late start have access to state-

    of-the-art technology, which in turn helps them to save on manpower costs and provide

    betterservices.

    During the year 2000, the State Bank Of India (SBI) and its 7 associates accounted for a

    25 percent share in deposits and 28.1 percent share in credit. The 20nationalized banks

    accounted for 53.2 percent of the deposits and 47.5 percent of credit during the same period.

    The share of foreign banks (numbering 42), regional rural banks and other scheduled

    commercial banks accounted for 5.7 percent, 3.9 percent and 12.2 percent respectively in

    deposits and 8.41 percent, 3.14 percent and 12.85 percent respectively in credit during the year

    2000.

    Current Scenario

    The industry is currently in a transition phase. On the one hand, the PSBs, which are the

    mainstay of the Indian Banking system are in the process of shedding their flab in terms of

    excessive manpower, excessive non Performing Assets (Npas) and excessive governmental

    equity, while on the other hand the private sector banks are consolidating themselves through

    mergers and acquisitions.

    PSBs, which currently account for more than 78 percent of total banking industry assets

    are saddled with NPAs (a mind-boggling Rs 830 billion in 2000), falling revenues from

    traditional sources, lack of modern technology and a massive workforce while the new private

    sector banks are forging ahead and rewriting the traditional banking business model by way of

    their sheer innovation and service. The PSBs are of course currently working out challenging

    strategies even as 20 percent of their massive employee strength has dwindled in the wake of

    the successful Voluntary Retirement Schemes (VRS) schemes.

    The private players however cannot match the PSBs great reach, great size and access to

    low cost deposits. Therefore one of the means for them to combat the PSBs has been through

    the merger and acquisition (M& A) route. Over the last two years, the industry has witnessed

    several such instances. For instance, Hdfc Banks merger with Times Bank Icici Banks

    acquisition of ITC Classic, Anagram Finance and Bank of Madura. Centurion Bank, IndusindBank, Bank of Punjab, Vysya Bank are said to be on the lookout. The UTI bank- Global Trust

    Bank merger however opened a pandoras box and brought about the realization that all was

    not well in the functioning of many of the private sector banks.

    INTRODUCTION ABOUT CREDIT CARD

  • 8/8/2019 Rashmi Natkut(Mt-II Final Report)

    24/44

    DEFINATON OF CREDIT CARD:-

    A credit card is a system of payment named after the small plastic card issued to users of

    the system. In the case of credit cards, the issuer lends money to the consumer (or the user) to be

    paid later to the merchant. ...

    A credit card is a financial instrument, which can be used more than once to borrow

    money or buy products and services on credit. Banks, retail stores and other businesses

    generally issue these.

    a card (usually plastic) that assures a seller that the person using it has a satisfactory

    credit rating and that the issuer will see to it that ...

    A credit card can be viewed as a payment mechanism which enables the holder of

    the card to purchase the goods (or services) without parting with immediate cash; an make a one-

    time payment at the end of a specified period (known as the billing cycle which is usually a

    month) with a provision for spreading this payment over several easy installment. In this way,

    the card holder manages to postpone the expenditure by usage of card availing credit from the

    issuer of the card. It should be noted that credit is given by the issuer of the card and not by the

    member establishment that had accepted the usage of card on purchase by cardholder. Thus we

    find that credit card is essentially a pay Later Product along the dimension of time for

    settlement or payment. Credit cards are a form of consumer loan, a revolving credit account that

    has a credit line of a specific amount that can be borrowed against in part or in full. As the

    outstanding balance is paid, the available credit line is restored for use again.

    Credit Cards give you a smart way to shop, and offer you flexibility and

    convenience in managing your finances. ICICI Bankcredit cards provide a host of exciting

    offers and benefits such as low interest rates, rewards programs, and a high credit and cash limit.

    We offer different types ofcredit card to suit the different needs and requirements for added

    features

    A credit card is part of a system ofpayments named after the small plastic card issued to users

    of the system. It is a card entitling its holder to buy goods and services based on the holders

    promise to pay for these goods and services. [1]The issuer of the card grants a line of credit to the

    consumer(or the user) from which the user can borrow money for payment to a merchant or as a

    cash advance to the user. A credit card is different from a charge card, where a charge card

    requires the balance to be paid in full each month. In contrast, credit cards allow the consumers

    to 'revolve' their balance, at the cost of having interest charged.

    Parties involved:-

    Cardholder: The holder of the card used to make a purchase; the consumer. Card-issuing bank: The financial institution or other organization that issued the credit

    card to the cardholder. This bank bills the consumer for repayment and bears the risk that

    the card is used fraudulently. American Express and Discover were previously the onlycard-issuing banks for their respective brands, but as of 2007, this is no longer the case.

    Merchant: The individual or business accepting credit card payments for products or

    services sold to the cardholder Acquiring bank: The financial institution accepting payment for the products or services

    on behalf of the merchant. Independent sales organization : Resellers (to merchants) of the services of the acquiring

    bank. Merchant account: This could refer to the acquiring bank or the independent sales

    organization, but in general is the organization that the merchant deals with. Credit Card association: An association of card-issuing banks such as Visa,MasterCard,

    Discover, American Express, etc. that set transaction terms for merchants, card-issuing

    banks, and acquiring banks. Transaction network: The system that implements the mechanics of the electronic

    transactions. May be operated by an independent company, and one company may

    operate multiple networks. Transaction processing networks include: Cardnet, Nabanco,

    Omaha, Paymentech, NDC Atlanta, Nova, TSYS, Concord EFSnet, and VisaNet.[4] Affinity partner: Some institutions lend their names to an issuer to attract customers that

    have a strong relationship with that institution, and get paid a fee or a percentage of the

    balance for each card issued using their name. Examples of typical affinity partners aresports teams, universities, charities, professional organizations, and major retailers.

    History Of credit card

    The concept of using a card for purchases was described in 1887 by Edward Bellamy in his

    utopian novelLooking Backward. Bellamy used the term credit cardeleven times in this novel.[26]

    The modern credit card was the successor of a variety of merchant credit schemes. It was first

    used in the 1920s, in the United States, specifically to sell fuel to a growing number of

    automobile owners. In 1938 several companies started to accept each other's cards. Western

    Union had begun issuing charge cards to its frequent customers in 1921. Some charge cards were

    printed on paper card stock, but were easily counterfeited.

    The Charga-Plate was an early predecessor to the credit card and used during the 1930s and late

    1940s. It was a 2 1/2" x 1 1/4" rectangle of sheet metal, similar to a military dog tag, that was

    embossed with the customer's name, city and state (no address). It held a small paper card for asignature. It was laid in the imprinter first, then a charge slip on top of it, onto which an inked

    ribbon was pressed.[27]Charga-Plate was a trademark of Farrington Manufacturing Co. Charga-Plates were issued by large-scale merchants to their regular customers, much like department

    store credit cards of today. In some cases, the plates were kept in the issuing store rather than

    held by customers. When an authorized user made a purchase, a clerk retrieved the plate from thestore's files and then processed the purchase. Charga-Plates speeded back-office bookkeeping

    that was done manually in paper ledgers in each store, before computers.

    The concept of customers paying different merchants using the same card was invented in 1950

    by Ralph Schneider and Frank X. McNamara, founders ofDiners Club, to consolidate multiple

    cards. The Diners Club, which was created partially through a merger with Dine and Sign,produced the first "general purpose" charge card, and required the entire bill to be paid with each

    statement. That was followed by Carte Blanche and in 1958 by American Express which createda worldwide credit card network.

    Bank of America created theBankAmericardin 1958, a product which, with its overseas

    affiliates, eventually evolved into the Visa system. MasterCard came to being in 1966 when a

    group of credit-issuing banks established MasterCharge; it received a significant boost whenCitibankmerged its proprietary Everything Card, launched in 1967, into Master Charge in 1969.

    The fractured nature of the U.S. banking system meant that credit cards became an effective way

    for those who were traveling around the country to move their credit to places where they could

    not directly use their banking facilities. In 1966 Barclaycard in the UK launched the first creditcard outside of the U.S.

    There are now countless variations on the basic concept of revolving credit for individuals (as

    issued by banks and honored by a network of financial institutions), including organization-branded credit cards, corporate-user credit cards, store cards and so on.

    In contrast, although having reached very high adoption levels in the US, Canada and the UK, it

    is important to note that many cultures were much more cash-oriented in the latter half of the

    twentieth century, or had developed alternative forms of cash-less payments, such as Carte bleueor the Eurocard (Germany, France, Switzerland, and others). In these places, the take-up of credit

    cards was initially much slower. It took until the 1990s to reach anything like the percentage

    market-penetration levels achieved in the US, Canada, or the UK. In many countries acceptancestill remains poor as the use of a credit card system depends on the banking system being

    perceived as reliable.

    In contrast, because of the legislative framework surrounding banking system overdrafts, some

    countries, France in particular, were much faster to develop and adopt chip-based credit cardswhich are now seen as major anti-fraud credit devices.

    CONCLUSION

  • 8/8/2019 Rashmi Natkut(Mt-II Final Report)

    41/44

    From that study I am reach to some conclusion these are following

    A credit card can be viewed as a payment mechanism which enables the

    holder of the card to purchase the goods (or services) without parting with

    immediate cash; an make a one-time payment at the end of a specified

    period.

    They are provided credit card in four category i.e. classic credit card, special

    benefit credit card, premium credit card, commercial credit card.

    When they are provided credit card they saw monthly income and they

    require all documentation.

    They offering credit is the main service in that they also categories their

    customer in different category. In that they provide credit to their customer.

    They also provide free credit card to classic and preferred customer.

    From that study I conclude that consumer having silver credit card so they

    most prefer silver credit card.
