sustain competitive advantage over other banks. In the competitive financial market,
the banks with the latest technology and techniques are more successful in the modern
civilization. Through this banking, business can generate more and more profitability
thus retaining Customers. Now- a -days banks are not following the traditional or
conventional banking with manual operations. Banks have moved from disbursed to a
centralized environment, which shows the impact of technology on banks. Banks are
using new tools and techniques to find out their customer’s needs and satisfaction and
offer them tailor made products and services to make it convenient.
The perception of the Customers towards the performance of the Financial Service
Provider, based on the expectation and the perception gap the Service Provider can
analyze the degree of variation required to satisfy the Customers in terms of the
services. Hence it can be accepted as a parameter for improving the performance of
the branch. The customer is king and the service providers are rushing to pay
observance to the king, the financial service providers are trying to provide their
services to the Customers in the comfort of their homes. The E-banking has emerged
as a convenient channel for these service providers.
D.N.V.Krishna Reddy, Dr.M.Sudhir Reddy (2015 )in their article " A Study On
Customer’s Perception And Satisfaction Towards Electronic Banking In Khammam
District " stated that Information and Communication Technology (ICT) have
brought about a lot of changes in almost all aspects of life. In the Banking Industry, it
has been in the form of E-Banking or Online Banking or Internet Banking, which is
now replacing the traditional banking mechanism. E-Banking has a lot of benefits
which add value to enhance customers’ satisfaction in terms of better quality of
service offerings and simultaneously enable the banks gain more competitive
advantage over other competitors. E-Banking is a combination of two, Electronic
technology and Banking.” “Electronic Banking is a process by which a customer
performs banking Transactions electronically without visiting a brick-and-mortar
institutions.” “E-Banking denotes the provision of banking and related service
through Extensive use of information technology without direct recourse to the bank
by the customer.” the satisfaction of the customer majorly influenced the convenience,
awareness, and responsiveness. In the present technology society, most of the banking
customer prefer and switch to e-banking facilities. So the banker may improve their
services, loyalty to customers and their retention by increasing awareness of other age
groups and concentrating on the factors contributing customer satisfaction. customer
is different so bank should concentrate on all the age group of customers for
betterment of e- banking banks.
V Vimala (2015 ) in his article "An Evaluative Study on Internet Banking Security
among Selected Indian Bank Customers " stated that Internet banking is very
convenient and fast, it is mired with several security issues. Banking institutions have
taken several measures to ensure safety measures for their customers while
performing various transactions online banking sector is one of the major
beneficiaries of the Internet revolution and the growth of banking technology products
have been remarkably increasing. The prevalent gain of Internet banking is that
people can pay out the services sitting at home, without visiting the branch. This helps
customers to complete their transactions in the fraction of time, thus saving both time
and effort. Internet banking system proves to be very versatile in completing
transactions like balance inquiry, withdrawal, deposits, viewing the bank statement,
and record of recent transaction. Considering all the advantages, security of the
financial information of customers is a very major concern of all banks. Banking
industry is one of the businesses that have used the full potential of IT to help with
banking transactions and increase banking services and opportunities to its customers.
These facilities helped millions of customers to perform their transaction anytime
anywhere easily, quickly and smoothly with perfections. Indian level and international
level but, very few works have focused on the Internet banking, its usage, safety
measures and its perceptions, attentiveness level, satisfaction levels, attitudes and
behavior of the internet banking, security issues, and financial frauds
Ms. M.Esther Krupa. (2016 ) in their article "A Study on Customer Satisfaction
Towards E-Banking Services in Coimbatore City "banking is one of the emerging
trends in the Indian banking and is playing a unique role in strengthening the banking
sector and improving service quality. It has enabled the banks to handle the payments
electronically faster and in large volumes. Several initiatives have been taken by the
Government of India as well as the Reserve bank to facilitate the development of e-
banking in India. The Reserve bank is monitoring and receiving the legal and other
requirements of e-banking on a continuous basis to ensure that e-banking would
develop on sound lines and e-banking related challenges would not pose a threat to
financial stability. E-banking reaps benefits for both banks and its customers. From
the banks’ perspective, e-banking has enabled banks to lower operational costs
through the reduction of physical facilities and reduced waiting time in branches
resulting in potential increase in sales performance and a larger global reach. From the
customer’s perspective, e-banking allows customers to perform a wide range of
banking transactions electronically via the bank’s website anytime and anywhere. The
customers expect many services with the various delivery modes which is speed and
secure. The banking industry has been considerably influenced by the expansion of
technology which has given way to the modern banking system to take over the
traditional banking system.
Reeta Clonia. (2016 ) in his article "E-banking in India: Current and future
prospects "it is compulsory for the banking sector additionally that in lieu of the
traditional banking it should adopt electronic banking and some incipient strategies in
order to magnetize and retain subsisting as well incipient customers. E-banking is the
most pioneering trend among the customers in the present era of thrust for more
expeditious and secured financial services. The transfer from the traditional banking
to e-banking has been an elevating amendment in banking dealings. Enlarged
competition, the advancement of information & communication technology, and
transmuting business environment etc. are the consequential concerns that have
coerced banking services to transmute. banking industry in India and additionally
discussed the magnification rate and future prospects of the e-banking services
provided by the Indian banks in this regard. Economic growth & development of any
country is mainly influenced by the advancement of the banking sector in that
particular nation. In the present era of technology demand of financial services is
transmuting at a very expeditious haste. To meet these ordinate dictations adoption of
incipient advanced technology in banking sector is obligatory to accommodate
subsisting customer and to magnetize more customers with a The banking sector is
increasingly growing which facilitate the opportune utilization of financial resources,
immensely colossal flow of investment ,intermediation activities as well as operating
in a rapidly innovating industry to facilitate its customers
Md. Khaled Bin Amir, Dr. Hasina Sheykh (2017) in their article "Analysis of
Customer Satisfaction on Online Banking: A Case Study on “One Bank Limited”
stated that customers are asked about their satisfaction level on online banking. After
conducting a thorough research, online banking services of One Bank Limited, is
quite good and satisfactory but customers were not aware and willing to take this
services. But level of satisfaction are greater for some parameters and less for some
parameters. Likewise, customers are satisfied with security and user friendliness of
the website of the banks, and somewhat neutral in perception with update frequency.
It is obvious from the evidence that almost all the respondents were educated, but
many of them provided “neutral” feedback as they do not use online banking services
or are indifferent to this services. Information technology has been used extensively in
this regard to maintain pace in this transformation. The concept of physical banking
gradually is going to be obsolete now. Physical banking is going to be replaced by
internet banking very soon. This trend of transformation also touched Bangladesh like
any other developing countries.. Besides internet banking is more convenient than
physical banking because internet banking never closes, anyone can enjoy banking
services anytime from anywhere. For this reason internet banking has become an
important measurement tools to attract larger customer base. Consequently it is now
considered as a tool to measure customer satisfaction.
Dr. Pratima Merugu (2018) in his article "Customer Satisfaction towards Online
Banking With Reference To Greater Visakhapatnam City" stated that customers and
deliver customer satisfaction. A fundamental understanding of factors causing
customer satisfaction in online banking has attained greater prominence as more and
more banks compete to offer superior services to their clients making it imperative for
banks to align their strategies in response to changing customer’s needs and
technology. apply the modified SERVQUAL model in the context of Internet banking
to describe how customers perceive online service quality' The Internet has emerged
as a major force in the financial service sector. The corollary of this phenomenon has
been the appearance of fierce competition among banks providing online services to
their customer/clients. Online/Internet banking is an electronic payment system that
enables customers of a financial institution to conduct financial transactions on a
website operated by the institution, such as a retail bank, virtual bank, credit union or
building society. Online banking is also referred as Internet banking, e-banking,
virtual banking and by some other terms. Online banking is becoming a popular tool
to attract customers and deliver customer value and satisfaction. customer satisfaction
is a critical factor for online banking service providers to maintain and improve their
profitability. Online banking has gained popularity for a number of reasons, including
convenience, cheaper ,multifunctional services, trendy and hassle free. Online
banking services have emerged as a decisive factor for customers when choosing a
bank. Banks offer several online products and service to their customers, Customer
satisfaction is increasingly recognized as a main pillar for success in the business
environment and also a key factor for the survival and growth of the banking sector.
Providing superior service quality enhances customer satisfaction and encourages
more participation among customers. High Service quality deliverance leads to
overall customer satisfaction.
State Bank of India is one of the Big Four banks of India, along with Bank of Baroda,
Punjab National Bank and Bank of India.
The bank traces its ancestry to British India, through the Imperial Bank of India, to
the founding, in 1806, of the Bank of Calcutta, making it the oldest commercial bank
in the Indian Subcontinent. Bank of Madras merged into the other two "presidency
banks" in British India, Bank of Calcutta and Bank of Bombay, to form the Imperial
Bank of India, which in turn became the State Bank of India. Government of India
owned the Imperial Bank of India in 1955, with Reserve Bank of India (India's
Central Bank) taking a 60% stake, and renamed it the State Bank of India. In 2008,
the government took over the stake held by the Reserve Bank of India.
State Bank of India is a regional banking behemoth and has 20% market share in
deposits and loans among Indian commercial banks.
The presidency Banks Act, which came into operation on 1 May 1876, brought the
three presidency banks under a common statute and the banks involved themselves in
financing of practically every trading, manufacturing and mining activity in the sub-
continent. But the three banks were rigorously excluded from any business involving
foreign exchange, as it was feared that these banks enjoying government patronage
would offer unfair competition to the exchange banks, which had by then arrived in
India. This exclusion continued till the creation of the Reserve Bank of India in 1935.
The Presidency Banks of Bengal, Bombay and Madras with their 70 branches were
merged in 1921 to form the Imperial Bank of India. The ‘triad’ had been transformed
into a ‘monolith’ and took on the triple role of a commercial bank, a banker’s bank
and a banker to the government. The establishment of the Reserve Bank of India as
the central bank of the country in 1935 ended the quasi-central banking role of the
Imperial Bank. The previous limitations on its business were removed and the bank
was permitted to commence foreign exchange business and executor and trustee
business for the first time. The Imperial Bank during the three and a half decades of
its presence verified an inspiring growth in terms of offices, reserves, deposits,
investments and advances, the increase in some cases amounting more than sixfold.
The supercilious societies of banking which the Imperial Bank steadily maintained
and the highest standard of truthfulness it observed in its actions inspired assurance in
its depositors that no other bank in India could perhaps then equal. When India
attained freedom, the Imperial Bank had a capital base (including reserves) of
Rs.11.85 crores, deposits and advances of Rs.275.14crores and Rs.72.94 crores
respectively, and a network of 172 branches and more than 200 sub offices extending
all over the country.
The origin of the State Bank of India goes back to the first decade of the nineteenth
century with the establishment of the Bank of Calcutta in Calcutta on 2 June 1806.
Three years later the bank received its charter and was re-designed as the Bank of
Bengal (2 January 1809). A unique institution, it was the first joint-stock bank of
British India sponsored by the Government of Bengal. The Bank of Bombay (15 April
1840) and the Bank of Madras (1 July 1843) followed the Bank of Bengal. These
three banks remained at the apex of modern banking in India till their amalgamation
as the Imperial Bank of India on 27 January 1921.
Primarily Anglo-Indian creations, the three presidency banks came into existence
either as a result of the compulsions of imperial finance or by the felt needs of local
European commerce and were not imposed from outside in an arbitrary manner to
modernise India's economy. Their evolution was, however, shaped by ideas culled
from similar developments in Europe and England, and was influenced by changes
occurring in the structure of both the local trading environment and those in the
relations of the Indian economy to the economy of Europe and the global economic
framework.
Establishment
The establishment of the Bank of Bengal marked the advent of limited liability, joint-
stock banking in India. So was the associated innovation in banking, viz. the decision
to allow the Bank of Bengal to issue notes, which would be accepted for payment of
public revenues within a restricted geographical area. This right of note issue was
very valuable not only for the Bank of Bengal but also its two siblings, the Banks of
Bombay and Madras. It meant an accretion to the capital of the banks, a capital on
which the proprietors did not have to pay any interest. The concept of deposit banking
was also an innovation because the practice of accepting money for safekeeping (and
in some cases, even investment on behalf of the clients) by the indigenous bankers
had not spread as a general habit in most parts of India. But, for a long time, and
especially upto the time that the three presidency banks had a right of note issue, bank
notes and government balances made up the bulk of the investible resources of the
banks.
The three banks were governed by royal charters, which were revised from time to
time. Each charter provided for a share capital, four-fifth of which were privately
subscribed and the rest owned by the provincial government. The members of the
board of directors, which managed the affairs of each bank, were mostly proprietary
directors representing the large European managing agency houses in India. The rest
were government nominees, invariably civil servants, one of whom was elected as the
president of the board.
2.4 History
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. This
made SBI subsidiaries of eight that had belonged to princely states prior to their
nationalization and operatonal take-over between September 1959 and October 1960,
which made eight state banks associates of SBI. This acquisition was in tune with the
first Five Year Plan, which prioritised the development of rural India. The
government integrated these banks into the State Bank of India system to expand its
rural outreach. In 1963 SBI merged State Bank of Jaipur (est. 1943) and State Bank of
Bikaner (est.1944).
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.
There has been a proposal to merge all the associate banks into SBI to create a "mega
bank" and streamline the group's operations.
The first step towards unification occurred on 13 August 2008 when State Bank of
Saurashtra merged with SBI, reducing the number of associate state banks from seven
to six. Then on 19 June 2009 the SBI board approved the absorption of State Bank of
Indore. SBI holds 98.3% in State Bank of Indore. (Individuals who held the shares
prior to its takeover by the government hold the balance of 1.7%.)
The acquisition of State Bank of Indore added 470 branches to SBI's existing network
of branches. Also, following the acquisition, SBI's total assets will inch very close to
the 10 trillion mark (10 billion long scale). The total assets of SBI and the State
Bank of Indore stood at 9,981,190 million as of March 2009. The process of
merging of State Bank of Indore was completed by April 2010, and the SBI Indore
branches started functioning as SBI branches on 26 August 2010.

5.2 Suggestions
Broadcast and print media, outdoor media have to be exploited to reach people
of all ages because advertisement is the important source of creating
awareness and it influencing the people in a better way.
Banks should hold demonstration and provide training to customers to explain
about its usage, effectiveness etc ,for the usage of all types of E-banking
services.
Banks should encourage the usage of E-banking services by giving incentives,
because by using it, banks and customer can save time and money.
To promote online banking online demo must be provided on all banks
websites this should be informative, educative and attractive.
Respondent are afraid about security, banks should provide better security
adopting better security measures and educate customer that there is no
security risk involved in this.
Internet and mobile banking can be used only if the customers have
knowledge about the usage of internet and mobile otherwise it is not possible
so bank should take measures regarding this problems.
Banks are providing various types of services but customers are not utilizing it
in a proper manner. They have to utilize the facility given by banks.
Creation of customer awareness and education for technology adoption is
necessary in rural areas.
5.3 Conclusion
At present banking sectors provide different services through E-banking systems. The
customer is looking for quality services which can provides satisfaction. From the
study it is understood that the customers are highly satisfied with the e-banking
services in Shivamogga city. This study reveals that the demographic conditions of
the customers are very important in creating the satisfaction level among the
customers of the Coimbatore city. The usage of e-banking services differs based on
the demographic condition of the respondents. The suitable services available may be
improved to give better customer satisfaction leading to retention of existing
customers and attracting new customers.
In recent years many changes have been taken place in the banking sectors. These
changes do not reduce the errors and mistakes in terms of operational activities. The
customers are still facing various problems while using banking transactions.
Therefore, the banks need to focus more on service sector and operational activities,
which makes the customer more comfort and satisfied in dealing with banking
activities.
Core banking solutions have enabled banks to extend full benefits of ATM services,
mobile and internet banking solutions to all the customers. Core banking solutions
offer a package of benefits to customers on a round the clock basis from a single
centralized location through all possible delivery channels. Such a centralized
approach has made a ‘one – stop solution’ for all financial services a possibility.
Results of the survey do indicate customer inclination towards the use of ATM
services when compared to other technology counterparts. But this phenomenon may
not continue indefinitely. The dynamic nature of technology and time may lead to
change in customer preferences. Again, customers will be forced to review their
preferences with changes in policies and regulations of the ruling elite, which became
evident during the recent demonetization regime.
Customers today are left with a multitude of offers, options and opportunities when
choosing banking services. They are rapidly evolving in their use of banking services
and technologies. Changing customer preferences and behaviours indicate need for
introduction of new strategies and latest technologies to attract and maintain
customers. In fact, customer behaviours seem to change faster than lead times for new
products and services. The question of how far technology enabled banking services
has met the needs and expectations of customers in an ever changing dynamic
environment need frequent and timely investigations and revisions. The credibility of
entire banking system will be at stake if rapid changing customer preferences are not
identified or sensed, customers are not sufficiently informed, their fears, resistances
and issues are not resolved as and when required and real time solutions are not
offered
