INTRODUCTION
Banking was in existing even in ancient times. The writings of Manu (the marker of Old Hindu
Law) and Kutilya (the minister or Chandragupta Maurya) and the teaching of Christ contained
references to banking.
However, modern banking is of recent origin. It come into existence only after the industrial
revolution. After the industrial revolution, with the increase in the size of industrial and business
units, joint stock company from of business organization came into existence. People were
willing to part with their surplus money, if they were assured of the repayment of their money
with some interest thereon. So there arose the need for the formation of financial institutions
called Joint stock banks or modern banks.
According to some, the English word “bank” is derived from the Italian world “banco”, the Latin
word “bancus” and the French word “banque”, which means a bench. But according to others, the
term “bank” is derived from the German word “banck”, which mean a joint stock fund or a
common fund raised from a large number of members of the public.
The Indian Banking Regulation Act of 1949 defines the term “banking” as “accepting, for the
purpose of lending or investment, of deposits of money from the public, repayable on demand or
otherwise, ad withdrawable by cheque, draft, order or otherwise”.
Loans
A Loan is a type of debt. Like all debt instruments, a loan entails the redistribution of financial
assets over time, between the lender and the borrower. The borrower initially receives an amount
of money from the lender, which they pay back, usually but not always in regular installments, to
the lender. This service is generally provided at a cost, referred to as interest on the debt. Bank
loans and credit are one way to increase the money supply.
A personal loan is a way of borrowing money from a bank, building society or other financial
service provider.
Interest on loans is the principal source of revenue for most banks, making their various lending
departments critical to their success. The commercial lending department loans money to
companies to start or expand a business or to purchase inventory and capital equipment. The
consumer-lending department handles student loans, credit cards, and loans for home
improvements, debt consolidation, and automobile purchases. Finally, the mortgage lending
department loans money to individuals and businesses to purchase real estate.
The money to lend comes primarily from deposits in checking and savings accounts, certificates
of deposits, money market accounts, and other deposit accounts that consumers and business set
up with the bank.
The Banks had, in keeping with the RBI Guidelines, evolved and formulated a well-defined Loan
Policy. The basic objectives of the Loan Policy of the Bank are:
The borrower’s requirements are determined on the basis of their Net Worth. The ratio of the net
worth to the bank credit of the borrower shall not normally exceed 1:4. The limits of the various
borrowers are assessed depending upon their requirements and their line of activity.
While giving a loan to the borrow, the Bank recovers the following charges in borrower’s
accounts:
Processing Charges
Inspection Charges
Supervision Charges
Commitment Charges
Up Front Fee
Personal Loans
The Loans which are used for personal purpose by a customer for his/her ward’s higher
education, wedding in a family, home improvement or maybe just an expensive purchase, for
which includes an insurance cover; a monthly EMI to be paid, which is in reducing balance; given
at without any security and at a convenient rate of interest as of the eligibility condition(s)
satisfied by either a salaried, self-employed professional and self-employed businessperson. The
documents requires are a salary slip; proof of personal identity and signature will just be fine.
Other things necessary could be a passport sized photograph and credit card statements.

INDUSTRY PROFILE
History
Banking was in existence in India from very early times. But modern banking started in India
only from the beginning of the 19th century. The earliest commercial banks were started in India
by the employees of the East India Company. These banks were known as Agency Houses.
The Indian banking can be broadly categorized into nationalized (government owned), private
banks and specialized banking institutions. The Reserve Bank of India acts a centralized body
monitoring any discrepancies and shortcoming in the system.
Banks have a long history, and have influenced economics and politics for centuries. Indian
banking industry, today is in the midst of an IT revolution. The Indian Banking System has been
operating successfully over the last two centuries. It was in 50s that the Government of India
evolved the policy of using the Banking system as an instrument of economic development and
social change.
Government took major step in the 1969 to put the banking sector into systems and nationalized
14 private banks in the mentioned year. In India the banks are being segregated in different
groups. Each group has their own benefits and limitations in operating in India. Each has their
own dedicated target market. Few of them only work in rural sector while others in both rural as
well as urban.
The first bank in India, though conservative, was established in 1786. from 1786 till today, the
journey of Indian Banking System can be segregated into three distinct phases. They are as
mentioned below:
o Nationalization of Indian Banks and up to 1991 prior to Indian banking Sector Reforms.
o New phase of Indian Banking System with the advent of Indian Financial & Banking
Sector Reforms after 1991.
The banking system can be divided into three phases. They are Phase I, Phase II and Phase
III.
Phase I:
The General Bank of India was set up in the year 1786. the next Bank that came into
existence was Bank of Hindustan and Bengal Bank. The East India Company established Bank of
Bengal (1809), Bank of Bombay (1840) and Bank of Madras (1843) as independent units and
called it Presidency Banks. These three banks were amalgamated in 1920 and Imperial Bank of
India was established which started as private shareholders banks, mostly Europeans
shareholders.
In 1865 Allahabad Bank was established and first time exclusively by Indians, Punjab National
Bank Ltd., was set up in 1894 with headquarters at Lahore. Between 1906 and 1913, Bank of
India, Central Bank of India, Bank of Baroda, Canara Bank, Indian Bank, and Bank of Mysore
were set up. Reserve Bank of India came in 1935. During the first phase the growth was very
slow and banks also experienced periodic failures between 1913 and 1948. There were
approximately 1100 banks, mostly small. To streamline the functioning and activities of
commercial banks, the Government of India come up with The Banking Companies Act, 1949
which was later changed to Bank Regulation Act 1949.
Phase II (Nationalization):
Government took major steps in this Indian Banking Sector Reform after independence. In 1955,
it nationalized Imperial Bank of India with extensive banking facilities on a large scale especially
in rural and semi-urban areas. It formed State Bank of India to act as the principal agent of RBI
and to handle banking transactions of the Union and State Governments all over the country.
Seven banks forming subsidiary of State Bank of India was nationalized in 1960 on 19th July,
1969, major process of nationalization was carried out. It was the effort of the them prime
Minister of India, Mrs. Indira Gandhi. 14 major commercial banks in the country were
nationalized. Second phase of nationalization Indian Banking Sector Reform was carried out in
1980 with seven more banks. This step brought 80% of the banking segment in India under
Government ownership.
The following area the steps taken by the Government of India to Regulate Banking Institutions
in the Country.
This phase has introduced many more produces and facilities in banking sector in its reforms
measure. In 1991, under the chairmanship of M.Narasimhan, as committee was set up by his
name which worked for the liberalization of banking practices. His government embarked on a
policy of liberalization and gave licences to a small number of private banks, which came to be
known as New Generation tech-savvy banks, which included banks like ICICI Bank and HDFC
Bank. The country was also flooded with foreign banks and their ATM stations. Efforts were
being put to give a satisfactory service to customers. Phone banking and net banking was also
introduced. The entire system became more convenient and swift.
The nationalization n of banks in India took place in 1969 by Mrs. Indira Gandhi the then prime
minister. It nationalized 14 banks then. These banks were mostly owned by businessmen and
even managed by them.

with a share capital of Rs.5 crores. Reserve Bank of India was nationalized in the year 1949. RBI
closely monitors developments in the whole financial sector.
To operate the credit and currency system of the country to its advantage.
The Reserve Bank of India Act of 1934 entrusted all the important functions of a central bank to
The Reserve Bank of India. The distribution of one rupee notes and coins and small coins all over
the country is undertaken by the Reserve Bank as agent of the Government. The Reserve Bank
has a separate Issue Department which is entrusted with the issue of currency notes. The Reserve
Bank of India acts as the banker’s bank. The Reserve Bank of India, therefore, has the following
powers:
It controls the credit operations of banks through quantitative and qualitative controls.
It controls the banking system through the system of licensing, inspection and calling for
information.
It acts as the lender of the last resort by providing rediscount facilities to scheduled banks.
Banking Industry
A bank is an institution that provides financial service, particularly taking deposits and extending
credit. Banks safeguard money and valuable and provide loans, credit and payment services, such
as checking accounts, money orders, and cashier’s checks. Banks also may offer investment and
insurance products. Banks continue to maintain and perform their primary role-accepting deposits
and lending funds from these deposits. There are several types of banks, which differ in the
number of services they provide and the clientele they serve.
Commercial banks, which dominate this industry, offer a full range of services for individuals,
business, and governments. These banks come in a wide range a of sizes, from, large global banks
to regional and community banks. Global banks are involved in international leading and foreign
currency trading, in addition to the more typical banking services. Regional banks have numerous
branches and automated teller machine (ATM) locations throughout a multi-state area that
provide banking services to individuals. Banks have become more oriented towards marketing
and sales. As a result, employees need to know about all types of products and services offered by
banks. Community banks are based locally and offer more personal attention, which may
individuals and small business prefer. In recent years, online banks- which provide all services
entirely over the Internet have entered the market.
Current Scenario:
Currently (2009), overall, banking in India is considered as fairly mature in term of supply,
product range and reach. Even in terms of quality of assets and capital adequacy, Indian banks are
considered to have clean, strong and transparent balance sheets as compared to other banks in
comparable economies in its region. The Indian economy is expected to be strong especially in its
services sector. Mergers and Acquisitions, takeovers, assets sales and much more action will
happen in India.
Currently, India has 88 scheduled commercial banks – 28 public sector banks, 29 private banks
and 31 foreign banks. They have a combined network of over 53,000 branches and 17,000 ATMs.
According to a report by ICRA Limited, a rating agency, the public sector banks hold over 75%
of total assets of the banking industry.
Presently the total assets size of the Indian banking sector is US$ 270 billion while the total
deposits amount to US$ 220 billion with a branch network exceeding 66,000 branches across the
country.
The Indian banking has come from a long way from being sleepy business institutions to a highly
proactive and dynamic entity. This transformation has been largely brought about by a the large
dose of liberalization and economic reforms that allowed banks to explore new business
opportunities rather than generating revenues from conventional stream (i.e. borrowing and
leading).
The Indian banking industry is passing through a phase of customers market. The customers have
more choice in choosing their banks. A competition has been established within the banks
operating in India. With stiff competition and advancement of technology, the services provide by
banks have become more easy and convenient.
Other fundamental changes are occurring in the industry as banks diversify their services to
become more competitive. Many banks now offer their customers financial planning and asset
management services, as well as brokerage and insurance services, often through a subsidiary or
third party. Others are beginning to provide investment banking services that help companies and
governments raise money through the issuance of stocks and bonds, also usually through a
subsidiary. As banks respond to deregulation and as competition in this sector grows, the nature
of the banking industry will continue to undergo significant change.
Easy Banking
A part from Mobile Banking, including of SMS Banking, Net Banking and ATMs are the major
steps taken by the banks in India towards modernization.
Technology
Technology is having a major impact of the banking industry. ATMs allow people to access their
accounts 24 hours a day. Also, direct deposit allows companies and governments to electronically
transfer payments into various accounts. Further, debit cards, which may also use as ATM cards,
instantaneously debut money from an account when the card is swiped across a machine at a
store’s cash register. Electronic banking by phone or computer allow customers to pay bills and
transfer money from one account to another. Through these channels, bank customers can also
access information such as account balances and statement history.
Services
Other fundamental changes are occurring in the industry as banks diversify their services to
become more competitive. Many banks now offer their customers financial planning and asset
management services, as well as brokerage and insurance services, often through a subsidiary or
third party. Others are beginning to provide investment-banking services that help companies and
governments raise money through the issuance of stock and bounds, also usually through a
subsidiary.
Industrial Development Bank of India (DEUTSCHE BANK) is the tenth largest bank in the world
in terms of development. The National Stock Exchange (NSE), The National Securities
Depository Services Ltd. (NSDL), Stock Holding Corporation of India (SHCIL) are some of the
institutions which has been built by DEUTSCHE BANK. DEUTSCHE BANK is a strategic

technologies and their impact on product cost, inter – firm comparisons, etc.
Retail Finance:
The Indian retail finance market, led by housing, auto and personal loan segments has witnessed a
major change in the last few years. These changing have been driven by rising income levels,
change in the mindset of consumers in availing credit, availability of credit, at affordable rates
and expansion of presence of financiers. Considering this robust growth and immense
opportunities in this sector, DEUTSCHE BANK has given major thrust to these segments.
DEUTSCHE BANK offers a wide spectrum of products; both secured (Housing loans, mortgage
loans and loan against securities) and unsecured (personal loans, educational loans and overdrafts
to merchant establishments.) During this year, DEUTSCHE BANK successfully undertook the

power to the grid were selected for grant of assistance under the Alternative Bagasse Co-
generation Component of the GEP Project. The programme has been completed with the
disbursement of the entire sanctioned grant of USD 6.78 million.
The Indian Textile industry despite occupying a unique position in the Indian economy, suffers
from technological obsolescence and lack of economics of scale. TUFS for textile and jute
industries, launched by the ministry of textiles, government of India on April 1,1999, initially for
a period of five years aims at focused and time bound programme for modernization through
technology up gradation in the industry. While the thrust of the scheme is on post spinning
segments (weaving, processing and garmenting), spinning segment has also been included under
the scheme. The main feature of TUFS is 5% reimbursement of interest payable on the out
standing rupee term loans interest portion deferred payment guarantee (rupee assistant)
convertible debentures subscribed by designed primary lending institutions / lease finance and
coverage of adverse exchange rate variations, both on primary and interest, subject to the
maximum of 5% cost forward premium limited to 5% p.a in respect of foreign currency loans.

Rs.220.8 crore have been made for standard assets as performance appraisal the guidelines
stipulated by RBI. As at end March 2006, sub standard assets formed 0.64% while doubtful assets
constituted 0.37% of DEUTSCHE Bank’s loan assets, for which provisions were made in
conformity with extant prudential regulations.
Treasury Operations:
The year 2005-06 witnessed a rise in the domestic interest rates in consonance with the
international markets. The Reserve Bank of India raised the repo and reverse repo rates three
times during the year. The market also witnessed a pick up in credit growth and the liquidity in
the system was low for some time after the redemption of the India Millennium Deposits in
December 2005. Its treasury managed the liquidity situation effectively ensuring that liquidity
needs of the Bank were met by timing the borrowing and investments appropriately apart from
maintaining the required regulatory reserves. Its treasury fully used the opportunities existing
both in the domestic and international markets to fund the resource requirements of DEUTSCHE
BANK.
DEUTSCHE BANK efficiently managed the surplus funds with a basket of investments in dated
securities, discounted instruments and others consistent with the risk perception and risk appetite
of your Bank. The investments have been made with the objective of maximizing returns without
compromising on safety and liquidity.
DEUTSCHE BANK also services the foreign exchange requirements of the customers by
providing a range of products to meet the needs of clients in their import and export transactions
apart form undertaking proprietary trading on its own account. Proactive interaction with the
customers at major metros has helped it to increase the foreign exchange business volume.
Customized risk management solutions to the clients were provided by DEUTSCHE BANK to
enable the customers to manage the exchange risk and interest rate risks.
During the previous year under review the focus of DEUTSCHE BANK was on reducing the cost
of foreign currency (FC) borrowings by replacement of earlier borrowings at lower rates. Three
tranches of borrowings, aggregating USD 224.7 million, were sources at finer rates, resulting in
significant lowering of cost of FC borrowings of DEUTSCHE BANK. In addition it also prepaid
some of the high cost FC borrowings further reducing the overall cost of funds. During the year
under the limit of 250 Cr unpaired Tier I capital DEUTSCHE BANK contracted a 364 day
syndicate loan of JPY 11.778 billion (equivalent to USD 100 million) and also raised a sum of
USD 105 million from overseas branches of Indian banks by way of inter-bank deals.
With a view to catering to the cross-broader financing needs of the Bank’s customers and
leverage the domestic banking strengths to offer products internationally, DEUTSCHE BANK
has decided to make a foray into the overseas markets. To begin with, it is proposed to open
offshore / representative offices in West Asia, Europe and South East Asia regions. Necessary
steps are being taken in this regard.
DEUTSCHE BANK has decided to enter into the life insurance business to complement the range
of financial products and services being offered to its clientele in consonance with its Vision
Statement to build the most valued financial conglomerate. DEUTSCHE Bank and Fortis
Insurance International N.V (Fortis), one of the largest players in the insurance business in
Europe, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with a view to setting up a joint
venture (JV) in the filed of life insurance business. Fortis will bring to the joint venture its unique
experience in developing and operating the banc assurance model, which will augment the
activities of DEUTSCHE BANK. DEUTSCHE BANK also proposes to approach the regulators,
thereafter for obtaining necessary statutory and regulatory approvals for setting up the insurance
venture.

Personal Loans:
A Personal loan is an unsecured loan. Normally, the lender does not ask for guarantors either.
More advantages: minimum documentation and speedy clearance (within three to seven days of
applying). And there is no monitoring of ‘end use’ – you can use the loan for any purpose you
like.
Personal Loans are often referred to as all purpose loans, they are ideal when you have to buy
Flexibility of duration and availability of various schemes make personal loans an attractive
option. Besides, you may use them for any purpose you choose to with no questions asked.
Personal loans are also known as consumer loans. With a personal loan you can use the money
for just about anything. Personal loans are a great way to acquire some quick cash without going
through a lot of hassles. The amount of personal loan that can be borrowed depends on which
type of loan you get. It also depends on your credit status and possibly if you have any collateral.
Personal Loan form DEUTSCHE BANK comes with an insurance cover. This means when times
are tough, you’ll have an insurance cover to take care of the EMI’s.
In case of death or disability due to an accident, the principle outstanding will be paid by
the insurance company.
In case of loss of job, the insurance company will pay the EMIs for up to 3 months.
Unsecured Personal Loans are loans that do not require any type of collateral to quality.
These loans may have higher loan rates associated with them, and usually the amount of the
loan is less than a secured loan. This types of loan is great when a person is in need of cash.
An unsecured personal loan can be used for any purpose you like, although it is worth
remembering that most lenders will have special loans for specific purposes, like car loans or
home improvement loans, so it might be advisable to see if the repayment terms and interest
rates on these tailor – made loans are more suitable.

society or other financial service provider. Personal loans are used for personal purpose by a
customer for his/her ward’s higher education, wedding in a family, home improvement or maybe
just an expensive purchase.

the interest rate charged for personal loan is very high the salaried as well as self-employed
customers would like to go for it as it is a an easy source of getting money in need.

interest are they also feel that in the coming years they can earn more than the interest they are
paying.

important but also the service provided, the processing fee charged, the processing time taken, the
maximum loan amount give etc., all these factors also pay a important role and the customers do
enquire about all these factors which may help a product to be successful and be a leading product
in the market.
