MOBILE BANKING.
CH.1 INTRODUCTION.
(also known as M- banking, SMS banking etc.) is a term used for performing balance
checks, account transactions, payments etc. via a mobile device such as a mobile phone.
Mobile banking today is most often performed via SMS or the Mobile Internet
but can also use special programs called clients downloaded to the mobile device.Mobile
banking is a way for the customer to perform banking actions on his or her cell phone or
other mobile device. It is also known as M-Banking or SMS Banking.Mobile banking
allows the user to log into his or her account from a cell phone, and then use the
phone to make
payments, check balances, transfer money between accounts, notify the bank of a lost or
stolen credit card, stop payment on a check, receive a new PIN, or view a monthly
statement, among other transactions. This type of banking is meant to be more
convenient for the consumer than having to physically go into a bank, log on from their
home computer, or make a phone call. While all of this is true, some are concerned about
the security of mobile banking.
ORIGIN.
Mobile banking probably had its origin in November 1946.In India, the
first bank on wheel was launched by the bank of Patiala in 1950. Internet
banking helped give the customer's anytime access to their banks.
Customers could check out their account details, get their bank statements,
perform transactions like transferring money to other accounts and pay
their bills sitting in the comfort of their homes and offices. However the
biggest limitation of Internet banking is the requirement of a PC with an
Internet connection, not a big obstacle if we look at the US and the
European Mobile banking – The Future White Paper Overview Abstract
This paper describes the basic concepts, services offered, market survey
and technology which enables Mobile banking. Over the last few years,
the mobile and wireless market has been one of the fastest growing
markets in the world and it is still growing at a rapid pace. This opens up
huge markets for financial institutions interested in offering value added
services. With mobile technology, banks can offer a wide range of
services to their customers such as doing funds transfer while traveling,
receiving online updates of stock price or even performing stock trading
while being stuck in traffic. Mobile devices, especially smart-phones, are
the most promising way to reach the masses and to create “stickiness”
among current customers, due to their ability to provide services anytime,
anywhere, with high rate of penetration and potential to grow. Document
Audience This document is primarily intended for Marketing, Sales,
Product Support, Internet Services Group, Project Engineering and anyone
who is interested in Mobile banking. Mobile

The advent of the Internet has enabled new ways to conduct banking
business, resulting in the creation of new institutions, such as online
banks, online brokers and wealth managers. Such institutions still account
for a tiny percentage of the industry.
Over the last few years, the mobile and wireless market has been one of
the fastest growing markets in the world and it is still growing at a rapid
pace. According to the GSM Association and Ovum, the number of
mobile subscribers exceeded 2 billion in September 2005, and now
exceeds 2.5 billion (of which more than 2 billion are GSM).
With mobile technology, banks can offer services to their customers such
as doing funds transfer while travelling, receiving online updates of stock
price or even performing stock trading while being stuck in traffic.
Smartphones and 3Gconnectivity provide some capabilities that older text
message-only phones do not.
Many believe that mobile users have just started to fully utilize the data
capabilities in their mobile phones. In Asian countries like India, China,
Bangladesh, Indonesia and Philippines, where mobile infrastructure is
comparatively better than the fixed-line infrastructure, and in European
countries, where mobile phone penetration is very high (at least 80% of
consumers use a mobile phone), mobile banking is likely to appeal even
more.
MOBILE BANKING.
The bank -focused model emerges when a traditional bank uses non-
traditional low-cost delivery channels to provide banking services to its
existing customers. Examples range from use of automatic teller machines
(ATMs) to internet banking or mobile phone banking to provide certain
limited banking services to bank’s’ customers. This model is additive in
nature and may be seen as a modest extension of conventional branch-
based banking.
The non- bank -led model is where a bank does not come into the picture
(except possibly as a safe-keeper of surplus funds) and the non- bank (e.g.
Telco) performs all the functions.

I. Interoperability:
There are a large number of different mobile phone devices and it is a big
challenge for banks to offer mobile banking solution on any type of
device. Some of these devices support J2ME and others support WAP
browser or only SMS.
internet banking while SMS can provide the basics but becomes difficult
to operate with more complex transactions.
Another challenge for the CIO’s and CTOs of the banks is to scale-up the
mobile banking infrastructure to handle exponential growth of the
customer base. With mobile banking, the customer may be sitting in any
part of the world (true anytime, anywhere banking) and hence bank’s
need to ensure that the systems are up and running in a true 24 x 7 fashion.
As customers will find mobile banking more and more useful, their
expectations from the solution will increase. Bank’s unable to meet the
performance and reliability expectations may lose customer confidence.
Due to the nature of the connectivity between bank and its customers, it
would be impractical to expect customers to regularly visit bank s or
connect to a web site for regular upgrade of their mobile banking
application. It will be expected that the mobile application itself check the
upgrades and updates and download necessary patches (so called Over
The Air updates). However, there could be many issues to implement this
approach such as
upgrade / synchronization of other dependent components.

IV.personalization:
1. Preferred Language
3. Amount format
4. Default transactions
Mobile banking has come in handy in many parts of the world with little
or no Infrastructure development, especially in remote and rural areas.
This part of the mobile commerceis also very popular in countries where
most of their population is unbanked. In most of these places banks can
only be found in big cities and customers have to travel hundreds of miles
to the nearest bank.Countries like Sudan, Ghana and South Africa received
this new commerce very well. In Latin America countries like Uruguay,
Paraguay, Argentina, Brazil, Venezuela, Colombia, Guatemala and
recently Mexico started with a huge success.In Iran banks like Parsian,
Tejarat, Mellat, Saderat, Sepah, edbi and bankmelli offer this service.
Guatemala has the support of Banco industrial. Mexico released the
mobile commerce with Omnilife, Bancomer and a private company
(MPower Ventures). Kenya's Safaricom (Part of the Vodafone Group) has
had the very popular M-Pesa Service - mainly used to transfer limited
amounts of money, but has been increasingly used to pay utility bills. Zain
in 2009 launched their own mobile money transfer business known as
ZAP in Kenya and other African countries.
MOBILE BANKING.
Mobile banking based on IVR has some major limitations that they can be
used only for Enquiry based services. Also, IVR is more expensive as
compared to other channels as it involves making a voice call which is
generally more expensive than sending an SMS or making data transfer
(as in WAP or Standalone clients).
MOBILE BANKING.
One way to enable IVR is by deploying a PBX system that can host IVR
dial plans. Banks looking to go the low cost way should consider
evaluating Asterisk, which is an open source Linux PBX system.
For example, customers of the HDFC Bank in India can get their account
balance details by sending the keyword ‘HDFCBAL' and receive their
balance information again by SMS.
One of the major reasons that transaction based services have not taken of
on SMS is because of concerns about security. The main advantage of
deploying mobile applications over SMS is that almost all mobile phones
are SMS enabled.
MOBILE BANKING.
Standalone mobile applications are the ones that hold out the most
promise as they are most suitable to implement complex banking
transactions like trading insecurities. They can be easily customized
according to the user interface complexity supported by the mobile. In
addition, mobile applications enable the implementation of a very secure
and reliable channel of communication.
2. Additionally, this new channel gives the bank ability to cross-sell up-
sell their other complex banking products and services such as vehicle
loans, credit cards etc.
2. For service providers, Mobile banking offers the next surest way to
achieve growth. Countries like Korea where mobile penetration is nearing
saturation, mobile banking is helping service providers increase revenues
from the now static subscribers use. Service providers are increasingly
using the complexity of their supported mobile banking services to attract
new customers and retain old ones.
6. Similarly, one could also request for services like stop cheque or
issue of a cheque book over one’s mobile phone.
MOBILE BANKING.
8. They are set to become a crucial part of the total banking services
experience for the customers.
9. Also, they have the potential to bring down costs for the bank
itself. Through mobile messaging and other such interfaces, bank s
provides value added services to the customer at marginal costs.
10. Such messages also bear the virtue of being targeted and personal
making the services offered more effective. They will also carry better
results on account of better customer profiling.
12. As such with mobile services, a bank will need to hire even less
employees as people will no longer need to visit bank branches apart from
certain occasions.
14. This will make credit cards redundant and also aid in checking
credit card. Fraud apart from offering enhanced customer convenience.
The use of mobile Technologies is thus a win-win proposition for both the
bank s and the bank’s Customers.
MOBILE BANKING.
MOBILE BANKING.
16. Use banking facilities anywhere, even far away from a bank .Easy
operation – access accounts from a cell phone. Lower operational costs
(for banks) than setting up ATM machines.
Disadvantage:
1) Pay bills
2) Transfer funds
When people are hard pressed for time, the need for "anytime anywhere”
is banking gains utmost importance. Bearing this in mind, bank s provides
a novel service which gives retail customers account information and real-
time transaction capabilities from their cell phones. With SMS banking the
following services can be obtained:
The service provider forwards this message to the bank’s mobile banking
applications. The mobile banking applications interface with the core
banking servers (that contain the user account information) that service the
request made by the user. The response is then sent by the mobile banking
applications to the bulk service provider who in turn forward it to the valid
user via SMS. Which is very well explaining in the following diagram?
MOBILE BANKING.
There are two ways in which a bank can communicate with a customer
using SMS:
In this method, the bank sends an email to the mobile banking application
through a specific email address. This email may consist of the message
content together with the mobile numbers of the customer. The mobile
banking application in turn sends this message in a specific format (for
e.g. XML tags are part of a HTTP GET message query string) to the
service provider’s application server. From here on the information from
the XML tags is extracted and sent as a SMS to the wireless carrier which
in turn forwards this message to the customer.
MOBILE BANKING.
In the second method the bank sends data in response to specific customer
query such as account balance details. The customer first sends a pre-
defined request code via SMS to the Bulk SMS service provider’s
registered mobile number. Depending on the message code, the bulk SMS
provider forwards the SMS to a PULL application in the mobile banking
server. The PULL application receives the request and forwards it to the
core banking application for further processing. The core banking server
then processes this message and sends the reply to the PULL application
which in turn forwards in to the customer via the service provider. As in
the above cases the request and the response for the PULL application
may be a HTTP GET message with tags in the query string.
MOBILE BANKING.
SMS banking services are operated using both Push and Pull messages.
Push messages are those that the bank chooses to send out to a customer's
mobile phone, without the customer initiating a request for the
information. Typically push messages could be either Mobile Marketing
messages or messages alerting an event which happens in the customer's
bank account, such as a large withdrawal of funds from the ATM or a
large payment using the customer's credit card, etc.
Another type of push message is One-time password (OTPs). OTPs are the
latest tool used by financial and banking service providers in the fight
against cyber fraud. Instead of relying on traditional memorized
passwords, OTPs are requested by consumers each time they want to
perform transactions using the online or mobile banking interface. When
the request is received the password is sent to the consumer’s phone via
SMS. The password is expired once it has been used or once its scheduled
life-cycle has expired.
Pull messages are those that are initiated by the customer, using a mobile
phone, for obtaining information or performing a transaction in the bank
account. Examples of pull messages for information include an account
balance inquiry, or requests for current information like currency
exchange rates and deposit interest rates, as published and updated by the
bank .
The bank’s customer is empowered with the capability to select the list of
activities (or alerts) that he/she needs to be informed. This functionality to
choose activities can be done either by integrating to the Internet banking
channel or through the bank’s customer service call centre.
MOBILE BANKING.
Insufficient funds
Many banks would have some concerns when the prospects of introducing
SMS banking are discussed. Most of these concerns could revolve around
security and operational controls around SMS banking. However
supporters of SMS claim that while SMS banking is not as secure as other
conventional banking channels, like the ATM and Internet banking, the
SMS banking channel is not intended to be used for very high-risk
transactions.
MOBILE BANKING.
The SMS banking channel also acts as the bank’s means of alerting its
customers, especially in an emergency situation; e.g. when there is an
ATM fraud happening in the region, the bank can push a mass alert
(although not subscribed by all customers) or automatically alert on an
individual basis when a predefined ‘abnormal’ transaction happens on a
customer’s account using the ATM or credit card. This capability
mitigates the risk of fraud going unnoticed for a long time and increases
customer confidence in the bank’s information systems.
MOBILE BANKING.
Most SMS banking solutions are add-on products and work with the
bank’s existing host systems deployed in its computer and
communications environment. As most banks have multiple backend
hosts, the more advanced SMS banking systems are built to be able to
work in a multi-host banking environment; and to have open interfaces
which allow for messaging between existing banking host systems using
industry or de-facto standards.
This feature allows for joint accounts or business account to have a pre-
determined limit to prompt for either supervisor or joint account holder
approval. A payment request is made from the account to another pre-
nominated account; a message is then send to either the supervisor or joint
account holder to also approve the payment.
This payment process is similar to a letter of credit, when the end user
sends a payment instruction for goods or services, the amount of the
payment will be transferred to a specific account. The beneficiary will be
notified that the amount is guaranteed. Once the goods or services are
delivered the end user/payee will be able to accept or reject the
goods/services and make payment accordingly by approving or denying
the payment process.
MOBILE BANKING.
Using nothing but their own mobile handset, consumers will be able to
make purchased at a wide variety of retail outlets. Let's use the
supermarket as a common example: the consumer needs to make a
purchase from a supermarket, he/she goes to the cashier and sends a
payment request along with his/her password and the specific POS
machine number. The system will then send back a Digital Money
Sequence Number (DMSN) to the buyer. When asking to pay for the
goods, the cashier will use his/her special banking card, and when the
buyer is asked for a password all they need to do is enter the DMSN. As
long as the transaction is within the daily limit of the account the
transaction will take place instantly.
1.6 E- Banking
What is really quite extraordinary is that there is no sign that this process
of acceleration in financial technology is approaching an end. We are
moving at an exceptionally rapid pace, fueled not only by the enhanced
mathematical applications produced by our ever rising computing
capabilities but also by our expanding telecommunications capabilities and
the associated substantial broadening of our markets.
MOBILE BANKING.
Functions of E-banking
The client inquires about the details of his own account information such
as the cards / account’s balance and the detailed historical records of the
account and downloads the report list.
The client can achieve the fund to another person’s Credit Card in the
same city.
The client can achieve the fund transfer between his own bank savings
accounts of his own Credit Card account and his own capital account in
the Securities Company. Moreover, the client can inquire about the present
balance at real time.
6. Client service:
The client can modify the login password, information of the Credit Card
and the client information in e- bank on net.
7. Account management:
The client can modify his own limits of right and state of the registered
account in the personal e- bank, such as modifying his own login
password, freezing or deleting some cards and so on.
The client can report the loss in the local area (not nationwide) when the
client’s Credit Card or passbook is missing or stolen.
MOBILE BANKING.
Types of E- banking
fund transfer will not take place unless the required number of signatories
has approved it.
6. With a power of Attorney from our dealers, we can link the
dealer’s accounts to our account in order to have an online fund transfer,
saving us time and money involved with cheques collections systems.
Alternatively, the dealer can credit our account through this channel.
Similarly, we could also affect vendor and other payments online.
7. Customers can also submit the following requests online:
Registration for account statements by e-mail daily / weekly / fortnightly /
monthly basis.
Stop payment or cheques
8. The company does not have to spend anything extra to avail such
facilities. All it requires is Internet connectivity. The product enables the
company to pro-actively manage its cash flows, ease reconciliation efforts
as all the MIS is available at the click of the mouse.
9. Bill Payment through Electronic banking: Internet has thus ushered
the concept of anytime and anywhere banking. To the individual the
onerous task of visiting several places to settle his service bills like
telephone, water, electricity, etc., can be overcome through the electronic
Bill Pay service provided by the bank. He can pay his regular monthly
bills (telephone, electricity, mobile phone, insurance, etc.) right from his
desktop. No more missed deadlines, no more loss of interest. He can
schedule his bills in advance, and thus avoid missing the bill deadlines as
well as earn extra interest on his money.
MOBILE BANKING.
10. Other benefits: The e- banking provides some other benefits also. They
are:
Convenience.
Easy Customization.
Limitation of E- banking:
of Internet to provide access for online bill payments, fund transfers and e-
statements in addition to encouraging wireless mobile banking and e-
commerce.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
SOURCES OF DATA.
To fulfil the information need of the study. The data is collected from
primary as well as secondary sources.
PRIMARY SOURCES.
I decided primary data collection method because our study nature does
not permit to apply observational method. In survey approach I had
selected a questionnaire method for taking a customer’s view because it is
feasible from the point of view of our subject & survey purpose. We
conducted 100 sample of survey in our project to understand the customer
reviews about HDFC home loans policy.
I had conducted a survey taking the sample size of 69 people including all
groups of people. I had done the survey at different places like Vasai
Station, Datani Square Mall and even my own Housing Society members
and other places considering all income groups of people. The
questionnaire of the survey in enclosed in the annexure. It was a very good
experience while conducting this survey. It developed a sense of
confidence and augmented the data collection skills within me. It enabled
me to develop a skill of getting primary data from the common people and
then analyzing it and presenting it in a systemic manner. Most importantly
it made me think logically and practically and thereby improved my
research ability. The information collected is analyzed and represented
below with all possible diagrams.
SECONDARY SOURCES.
B. SECONDARY SOURCES.
It was collected from internal sources. The secondary data was collected
on the basis of organizational file, official records, newspapers,
magazines, management books, preserved information in the company’s
database and website of the company.
TOOLS OF ANALYSIS.
Data has been presented with the help of bar graph, pie charts, line graphs
etc.
PLAN OF ANALYSIS.
Tables were used for the analysis of the collected data. The data is also
neatly presented with the help of statistical tools such as graphs and pie
charts. Percentages and averages have also been used to represent data
clearly and effectively.
LITERATURE REVIEW.
their efforts to develop features that satisfy the needs of their target
customers.
Changchit, Chuleeporn1 (2019)
DATA ANALYSIS
According to the survey 69% people are aware of the mobile banking
facility. From this graph we can see that Indians are well aware of the
services such as mobile banking which are provided by banks to them. A
service such as mobile banking is definitely not a new concept to the
Indian people.
They are responsive and are appreciative of the bank efforts to lighten the
load on branches and subsidiaries.
MOBILE BANKING.
Public sector banks are the most secured types of banks for
mobile banking as shown in the above pictorial representation,
nearly 59% people believe that mobile banking from public
sector is safe.
Remaining 35% would opt for private banks for online banking
transactions.
Last but not the least 8% people are the people who frequently
travel out of the country would opt for foreign banks.
The survey mostly was filled by the younger generation and hence 93% of them use
mobile baking facilities. And the remaining 7% are aware but are not using this facility.
The bank should target this crowd and educate them about the facilities.
According to the survey 51% people find mobile banking convenient which a
plus point for the banks is as it creates goodwill in the market.
Whereas 43% people find it complicated and hence the banks are needed to
take corrective measures.
6. Frequency of usage?
The younger generation from age group 16-30 use m-banking at a higher frequency rate the sums up
To almost 36% of the total crowd that participated in the survey. And hence making m-banking more
efficient and useful.
MOBILE BANKING.
This graph represents the amount of customers that would vouch and
recommend the mobile banking facility to others. If a customer, who has
used the mobile banking facility in the past, recommends such a facility to
others it means that it has had a good impact on him, otherwise he would
not be doing so.
Moreover, it works out well for mobile banking because word of mouth
publicity is the best publicity ever.
A point to be noted is that even though the Indian people are not fully
confident about mobile banking, they are willing to experiment with new
ideas and innovations but at a slow and cautious pace, which is a good
turnover for mobile banking.
MOBILE BANKING.
Conclusion.
In the end mobile banking not only helps a bank to reduce costs
but also helps it to retain its valuable customers. And as far as customers
are concerned, this facility enables the customer to bank anywhere, at
anytime and in any condition, definitely a boon if a customer is stuck in
the middle of nowhere and requires banking services as soon as possible.
Thus mobile banking helps both, the customer as well as the bank,
to lighten the burden of today’s world and to save time, money and
energy which is greatly required and appreciated. In a competitive world
where everyone is waiting to outdo the other, a helping hand, in whatever
forms and from whatever source, is definitely god sent and should not go
unrecognized
