LITERATURE REVIEW:-
The banking sector in India has made remarkable progress since the economic reforms in
1991.new private sector banks have brought the necessary competition into the industry a nd
spearheaded the changes towards higher utilization of technology, improved
customer service and innovative products. Customers are now becoming increasingly
conscious of their rights and are demanding more than ever before. The recent trends show that
most banks are shifting from a “product-centric model” to a “customer-centric model” as
customer satisfaction has become one of the major determinants of business growth. In
this context, prioritization of preferences and close monitoring of customer
satisfaction have become essential for banks. keeping these in mind, an attempt has
been made in this study to analyze the factors that are essential in influencing the
investment decision of the customers of the public sector banks. For this purpose, Factor
Analysis, which is the most appropriate multivariate technique, has been used to identify the
groups of determinants. Factor analysis identifies common dimensions of factors
from the observed variables that link together the seemingly unrelated variables and provides
insight into the underlying structure of the data.
Book:-
I have referred Marketing Management book Written by Kotler Philip. and service marketing
written by M.K. rampal.

Customer service is the provision of service to customers before, during and after a purchase.
According to Turban et al. (2002), "Customer service is a series of activities designed to enhance
the level of customer satisfaction – that is, the feeling that a product or service has met the
customer expectation."
Customer satisfaction in the banking industry play a vital role to create a healthy business
status being services based industry. In any services based industry customer service is at highest
priority. Customer service can be provided by well planned self-service. In banking industry
customer are more directly linked with the bank’s personnel for any kind of services or product.
Therefore, banks should always focus on training its front desk staff to provide quality service
knowing their expectation and wants.
Customer satisfaction is an ambiguous and abstract concept and the actual manifestation of the
state of satisfaction will vary from person to person and product/service to product/service. The
state of satisfaction depends on a number of both psychological and physical variables which
correlate with satisfaction behaviors such as return and recommend rate. The level of satisfaction
can also vary depending on other options the customer may have and other products against
which the customer can compare the organization's services.
At the same time, several banking institutions are experiencing increasing level of retail
customer dissatisfaction.
Research suggests that customer dissatisfaction is still the major reason of bank customers’
switch to other banks. This dissatisfaction could be because of a variety of reasons. Excellent
service quality is not an optional competitive strategy which may, or may not, be adopted to
differentiate one bank from another: today it is essential to corporate profitability and survival.
The connection between service quality and corporate profitability is now seen to depend on high
levels of customer satisfaction, the successful targeting of “quality” customers and the retention
of those customers.

HISTORY OF THE STATE BANK OF INDIA:-
The roots of the State Bank of India lie in the first decade of the 19th century, when
the Bank of Calcutta, later renamed the Bank of Bengal, was established on 2 June 1806. The
Bank of Bengal was one of three Presidency banks, the other two being the Bank of
Bombay (incorporated on 15 April 1840) and the Bank of Madras (incorporated on 1 July 1843).
All three Presidency banks were incorporated as joint stock companies and were the result
of royal charters. These three banks received the exclusive right to issue paper currency till 1861
when, with the Paper Currency Act, the right was taken over by the Government of India. The
Presidency banks amalgamated on 27 January 1921, and the re-organised banking entity took as
its name Imperial Bank of India. The Imperial Bank of India remained a joint stock company but
without Government participation.
Pursuant to the provisions of the State Bank of India Act of 1955, the Reserve Bank of
India, which is India's central bank, acquired a controlling interest in the Imperial Bank of India.
On 1 July 1955, the Imperial Bank of India became the State Bank of India. In 2008, the
government of India acquired the Reserve Bank of India's stake in SBI so as to remove any
conflict of interest because the RBI is the country's banking regulatory authority.
In 1959, the government passed the State Bank of India (Subsidiary Banks) Act, which
made eight state banks associates of SBI. A process of consolidation began on 13 September
2008, when the State Bank of Saurashtra merged with SBI.
15

SBI has acquired local banks in rescues. The first was the Bank of Bihar (est. 1911),
which SBI acquired in 1969, together with its 28 branches. The next year SBI acquired National
Bank of Lahore (est. 1942), which had 24 branches. Five years later, in 1975, SBI acquired
Krishnaram Baldeo Bank, which had been established in 1916 in Gwalior State, under the
patronage of Maharaja Madho Rao Scindia. The bank had been the Dukan Pichadi, a small
moneylender, owned by the Maharaja. The new bank's first manager was Jall N. Broacha, a
Parsi. In 1985, SBI acquired the Bank of Cochin in Kerala, which had 120 branches. SBI was the
acquirer as its affiliate, the State Bank of Travancore, already had an extensive network in
Kerala.
The State Bank of India and all its associate banks are identified by the same
blue keyhole logo. The State Bank of India wordmark usually has one standard typeface, but also
utilises other typefaces.
On October 7, 2013, Arundhati Bhattacharya became the first woman to be appointed
16
Chairperson of the bank.

Earlier SBI had seven associate banks, all of which had belonged to princely states until the
government nationalised them between October 1959 and May 1960. In tune with the first Five
Year Plan, which prioritised the development of rural India, the government integrated these
banks into State Bank of India system to expand its rural outreach. There has been a proposal to
merge all the associate banks into SBI to create a "mega bank" and streamline the group' s
operations.

Saurashtra merged with SBI, reducing the number of associate state banks from seven to six.

customers’ waiting period is long when compared to private banks.
 The banks spends a huge amount on its rented buildings.

considerable amount of its income in employee’s salary compensation.
 In spite of modernization, the bank still carries the perception of traditiona l bank to new
age customers.
 SBI fails to attract salary accounts of corporate and many government sector employees
salary accounts are also shifted to private bank for ease of operations unlike before.
Opportunities:-
 SBI’s merger with more banks namely State Bank of Hyderebad, State bank of Patiala,
State bank of Bikaber and Jaipur, State of bank of Travancore and State bank of Mysore
are in approval stage.
 Mergers will result in expansion of market share to defend its number one position
SBI is planning to expand and invest in international operations due to good inflow of
money from Asian Market.
 Since the bank is yet to modernize few of its banking operations, there is a better scope of

called “old government bank”
Threats:-
 FDIs allowed in banking sector is increased to 49% , this is a major threat to SBI as

CHAPTER:-4
CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION OF THE STUDY
55

The banking sector in India is undergoing major changes due to competition and the advent of
technology. The customer is looking for better quality services which enhance his/her
satisfaction. From the above analyses, it is evident that SBI has many positive
features and the customers are mostly satisfied with the services offered. In spite of this fact, it
has been observed that many customers are not aware of all sort facilities provided by SBI.
Though this study can’t provide conclusive evidence to determine particular courses of action
and further research will be required to provide evidence. But the management of SBI
(MUMBAI) should consider the findings and take all necessary steps for further research and if
they think that the customers of SBI are homogeneous in their choice and preferences,
they may consider the following recommendations to gain more customer based and
achieve more customer satisfaction along with maintaining existing customers’
delights
 The management of SBI should conduct more product and services awareness campaign.
 They should increase the level of providing personal attention to individual customers.
 In delivery of quality service in banks, what matter are speed, accuracy,
promptness, reliability, individualized attention, etc. Better results can be
achieved through proper use of relevant banking technology.
 The SBI Management should critically evaluate the deviation in means in
order to create balance in all dimensions of customer satisfaction measurement
tools.
The customer satisfaction in terms of service quality is a relational marketing
paradigm. The relationships are mostly viewed from the perspective of the firm
providing services. For services firm in this case the banks, building strong
relationship is important for improving customer satisfaction through service quality.
Banks should continually assess and reassess how customers perceive bank
services so a s to know whe the r the bank me e ts or exc e eds or is be low the
expectations of their customers. Such an appraisal, however, is a tedious task
because customer service is complex in nature and dynamic in action.
