ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA

1.Introduction

Automated Teller Machine (ATMs) has gained prominence as a delivery channel for banking
transactions in India. Banks have been deploying ATMs to increase their reach. As at the
end of December 2007, the number of ATMs deployed in India was 32,342

From first day of April 2009, entire ATM network is now available to customers from any
bank for transactions for no fee at all, irrespective of the banks in which they have their
accounts, now customers will not be levied any fee on cash withdrawals using ATM and debit
card issued by other banks. This will in turn increase usage of ATMs in India.

8
ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA

More people are now moving towards using the automated teller machines (ATM) for their
banking needs. According to a survey by Banknet India, 95% people now prefer this modern
channel to traditional mode of banking. Almost 60% people use an ATM at least once a week.

Increased ATM usage is also helped by the fact that customers have now the flexibility of
using ATMs of other banks, as most of the banks are part of major interbank networks like
National Financial Switch (NFS), Cashtree and cashnet. The interbank networks have brought
together ATMSs of several banks so that consumers would gain access to any of the
participating banks ATMs. Banks find it cheaper to pay membership fees to these networks as
against setting up additional units in expensive to deploy areas.

ATMs are now seen to be more than mere cash dispensing machines. Customers use ATMs to
recharge their mobile phone prepaid connections, pay their utility bills even Mutual fund
transactions making them at par with flexibility given in internet banking only more
secure. Of the value-added services provided at ATMs, bill payment is the most used service,
followed by prepaid mobile talk-time recharges. However, still about one third of the
respondents do not use any value-added services at ATMs.

The ATM market in India is not yet saturated. Though the concentrations of ATMs are greater
in metros, the demand is increasing for other cities and even rural areas. ATMs per million
people approximately are 33 units are very low. Experts forecast that the growth rate. I
is expected to grow 18 percent up by 2013. Banks going into a self service model
can have huge saving potential for banks and may also increase convenience for
the customers.

ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA
2 History

The first Automated Teller Machine (ATM) was introduced in the year 1967 by BNarclays
Bank in Enfield Town in North London. At that time a few would have anticipated excess in
ATMs. Then many years after, the aim was to shift people off the teller lines thus lowering a
banks distribution costs and increase efficiency. But in the 1980s, it was notified that people
continued to visit branches, though not as frequently, so that with the costs of ATMs, overall
distribution costs were actually rising.

Then, in the 1990s, came surcharges, which fuelled the proliferation of off-premises ATMs,
which led in turn to the current overcapacity. There was a slowdown in ATM transactions,
partially because of the consumers reaction to the imposition of purchase. Also by the advent
of surcharging there was a massive growth in the number of ATMs as it offered ATM owners
revenues making it economical to install ATMs where they might not have been placed
otherwise.

As is often the as with inventions, many inventors contribute to the history of an invention. In
the case of the ATM, Don Wetzel invented the first successful and modern ATM in the USA,
however he was not first inventor to create an ATM. In 1939, Luther George Simjian started
patenting an earlier and not-so-successful version of an ATM.

3.WHAT IS ATM
A cash machine, also known as an automated teller machine[ (ATM, automated banking
machine (ABM), cashpoint, cashline, minibank, bankomat or colloquially hole in the wall is
an electronic telecommunications device that enables the customers of a financial institution to
perform financial transactions, particularly cash withdrawal, without the need for a human
cashier, clerk or bank teller.
According to the ATM Industry Association (ATMIA), there are now close to 3 million cash
machines installed worldwide.

On most modern cash machines, the customer is identified by inserting a plastic ATM card
with a magnetic stripe or a plastic smart card with a chip that contains a unique card number
and some security information such as an expiration date or CVVC (CVV). Authentication is
provided by the customer entering a personal identification number (PIN).

Using a cash machine, customers can access their bank deposit or credit accounts in order to
make a variety of transactions such as cash withdrawals, check balances, or credit mobile
phones. If the currency being withdrawn from the cash machine is different from that in which
the bank account is denominated the money will be converted at an official exchange rate.
Thus, cash machines often provide the best possible exchange rates for foreign travellers, and
are widely used for this purpose.

4. WHY ATM?

Reasons for ATM


Increased bandwidth and real-time responsiveness.
Advantages over Ethernet networks.
Limitations of Token Ring and FDDI networks.
High performance of ATM networks.
ATM is a world wide recognized standard, with which a universal information
exchange can be realized for the first time, independent of the type of end system and
service (data, video, audio).
ATM is suitable for LANs as well as WANs.
ATM is able to handle all existing information services simultaneously and efficiently.
Since ATM is scalable and therefore available in all speed classes.

As a general rule the maximum achievable BW for copper

LITERATURE REVIEW
3.1 Introduction Information Technology (IT) is very powerful in todays world, and financial
institutions are the backbone of the Indian economy. Indian Banking Industry today is in the
midst of an IT revolution. Nearly, all the nationalised banks in India are going for information
technology based solutions. The application of IT in Banks has reduced the scope of
traditional or conventional banking with manual operations.

Nowadays banks have moved from disbursed to a centralised environment, which shows the
impact of IT on banks. Banks are using new tools and techniques to find out their customers
need and offer them tailor made products and services. The impact of automation in banking
sector is difficult to measure.

The literature available to the researcher on the application of Information technology in


Indian banks are classified according to the related topics as mentioned below: 1.
Technological development in banking sector 1. Application of IT in banking 2. IT framework
for Indian banking 3. Technological developments in cooperative banks 4. Indian banking
sector : challenges and opportunities

1) Dr. C. Rangarajan Committee [1983] [5]


Dr. Rangarajan committee had drawn up in 1983-84 the first blue print for
computerisation and mechanisation in banking industry and looked into
modalities of drawing up a phased plan for mechanisation for the banking
industry covering period 1985-89. The committee in its report in 1984
recommended introduction of computerisation and mechanisation at
branch, regional office / zonal office and head office levels of banks.

In 1988[6] another committee was constituted under the chairmanship of


Dr. Rangarajan for making plans for computerisation for the next five years
from 1990-94 for the banking industry. It identified the purpose of
computerisation as improvement in customer service, decision making,
house keeping and profitability. The committee observed that banking is a
service industry and improved efficiency will lead to a faster rate of growth
in output and help to expand employment all around. The work force in the
banking industry must, therefore, look upon computerisation as a means to
improve customer service and must welcome it in that spirit.
2) W.S. Saraf Committee [1994] [7] [8] In 1994
, the Governor, Reserve bank of India had appointed a committee on
technology issues under the chairmanship of W. S. Saraf. The committee
looked into technological issues related to the payment system and to
make recommendations for widening the use of modern technology in the
banking industry. The Saraf committee recommended to set up institutions
for electronic funds transfer system in India. The committee also reviewed
the telecommunication system like use of BANKNET and optimum
utilization of SWIFT by the banks in India.

12
ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA
3) Shere Committee [1995] [7] [8] In 1995,
RBI formed a committee under the chairmanship of K. S. Shere, to study all
aspects relating to electronic funds transfer and propose appropriate
legislation. The Shere committee had recommended framing of RBI (EFT
system) regulations under 59 section 58 of the Reserve bank of India Act
1934 (RBI Act.), amendments to the RBI act and to the bankers book
evidence act, 1891 as short term measures and enacting of a few new acts
such as EFT act, the computer misuse and data protection act etc. as long
term measures.
4) Narasimhan Committee [1998] [9]
In order to examine the various issues related to the technology
upgradation in the banking sector, the Reserve Bank of India appointed
Narasimhan committee in September 1998. The committee consists of
representatives from the Government, Reserve Bank of India, banks and
academic institutions associated with the information technology.

The committee dealt with the issues on technology upgradation and


observed that the most of the technology that could be considered suitable
for India in some form or the other has been introduced in some diluted
form or as a pilot project, but the desired success has not been achieved
because of the reasons inter-alia lack of clarity and certainty on legal
issues. The committee also suggested implementation of the necessary
legislative changes, keeping in the view the recommendations of Shere
committee.

The need for addressing the following issues was also emphasised:-
Encryption on Public Switching Telephone Network (PSTN) lines Admission
of electronic files as evidence Treating Electronic Funds Transfers on par
with crossed cheques / drafts for purposes of Income Tax etc Electronic
Record keeping Provide data protection Implementation of digital
signatures Clarification on payment finality in case of EFT Taking into
consideration the recommendations by various committees appointed by
RBI and guidelines of RBI, banks have started using IT to automate banking
transactions and processes.

Cash Technologies Inc. Introduces New Transaction Processing


System to Revolutionize the Traditional ATM

According to ATM developer and DocuTel employee Don Wetzel, we never did see the ATM
as just a cash dispenser. We thought it had to be a machine that did most of the functions of a
teller including transferring money, taking payments and issuing cash advances. But, nearly 30
years later, the ATM is still not much more than a cash dispenser. In fact, out of the nearly
220000 ATMs installed in the U.S., research shows nearly half provide only cash dispensing
transactions. And, only five percent of the remaining ATMs do anything more than the
original, basic bank account functionseven though consumers are demanding more twenty-
four hour services from their local bank.

ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA
Why? The answer is simple
The protocol used by ATMs, which was developed their inception, does not support
additional on-line services such as check cashing, bill payment , money order issuance
and event ticketing.

.
For the first time, communication between four primary channels:
1. The ATM network
2. The credit card networks,
3. The Automated Clearing House (ACH) networks and
4. Cash will interface seamlessly.

With the new platform, ATMs are on their way to becoming electronic convenience kiosks,
capable of event and airline ticketing, electronic bill payment, and connecting to an
alternate host via the internet.

With ATMs becoming such a formidable delivery channel, banks are weighing whether
to configure their ATMs to do more than just standard cash withdrawals.

8 Principle of ATM

ATM - originally designed for WAN communications, but quickly adapted for LANs
as well, ends this historical separation and forms a universal platform for data communication,
In both ATM LAN AND ATM WAN networks the data transport is achieved via connection-
oriented communication paths, which are set up though high-speed switching systems. These
ATM switches perform the cell routing from the input ports of the switch to the destination
port in real time and in parallel for the ports.

For data transport ATM uses packets with a fixed length of 53 bytes, the so-called
cells. These cells can be processed significantly faster and more efficiently in switching
systems than data packets of variable length. Because of the cell structure, a massive parallel
architecture of ATM switching systems is possible. Since all cells have the same length, all
data units which wait at the input ports of a switch for transportation at a given time, can be
routed simultaneously to their destination port.
ATM can handle all of today's data services (telephone, data, video-broadcast and
interactive) in an efficient way.

22
ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA
8 Function of ATM

THE BEGINNING GETTING CASH AT ATMs:

The first ATM cards gave consumers access to their checking, savings, and share draft
accounts only at teller machines owned by their bank, credit union, or savings and loan.
People commonly call this kind of card an ATM card, cash card, or banking card, or they use
the name that their bank, credit union, or regional network has given to the card.

When regional ATM networks were created, they linked together the ATMs of different
institutions and offered consumers access to their money in other neighborhoods and nearby
cities, towns, and states. (A list of many ATM networks names and where they operate appears
near the end of this brochure.) At the same time, two national networks -Cirrus and plus -
emerged, expanding ATM card access to cash, first nationwide, then around the world.
Currently, these are the only two brands that offer a full range of ATM services worldwide.

ATM cards provide a convenient way of getting cash, making deposits and transfers, and
verifying account balances. It is also easy to tell where you can use the card by simply
matching the logos on your ATM card with those displayed on the ATM itself.

THE NEXT STEP PAYING WITH ATM CARDS:

More recently, many ATM cards have been enhanced so that you can shop with the cards at
merchants that sign up with the same networks that give the cards wide access to ATMs. (A
list of many of these shopping networks also appears near the end of this brochure.) Currently
there is only one international service, called Maestro*, that lets card work at participating
merchants both in the United States and in more than 50 countries.

Grocery stores and gas stations were among the first retailers in the United States to install the
small number pads, also called PIN pads that you may have noticed at the checkout counter or
on the gas pump. It is these devices that make shopping with many ATM cards possible.

THE LATEST NEWS SHOPPING WHEREVER SOME MAJOR CARD


BRANDS ARE ACCEPTED:

Another ATM card service makes ATM cards more useful by greatly expanding the number of
retail locations that accept the cards for payment. ATM cards with the logo of one of two of
the major card brands MasterCard or Visa- can be used to make purchases anywhere these
cards are accepted. Today, these kinds of cards are accepted at some 3 minion places in the
United States and 9 million more worldwide. Currently, these are the only two major
card brands that offer this service.

9 ATM On Internet

ATM will become an increasingly important technology not only in corporate environments
but also within the realm of the Internet. Graphics-and video-intensive applications
necessitates higher speeds. By current standards , high -speed refers to networks that operate
at 155Mbps.A typical ATM switch can between 16 and 64 ATM devices. Although a single
ATM switch has finite capacity, switches can be interconnected to form a larger network.

IP address Binding In An ATM network as in technologies, ATM assigns to each


attached computer a physical address that must used when establishing a virtual circuit .On
one hand because an ATM physical address is larger than an IP address. Thus IP cannot use
static address binding for ATM networks ATM hardware does not support broadcast. Thus IP
cannot use conventional ARP to bind addresses on ATM networks

ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA
10. Limitation Of ATM

YOU CAN ONLY SPEND WHAT YOU HAVE:


When you use your ATM card, whether to withdraw cash or make purchases, you are using
your own money that is on deposit at your bank or credit union. Naturally, you can only use
as much money as you have available. If you have an overdraft line of credit attached to your
account and your purchase with the card exceeds the amount available on deposit, your bank
or credit union will charge interest on the amount you borrow from your overdraft
THERE MAY BE DAILY SPENDING & WITHDRAWAL LIMITS:
Many banks and credit unions set daily limits on ATM purchases and cash withdrawals, as a
deterrent to the use of stolen or fraudulent cards. Often, these two limits are different and
each may vary widely, from a few hundred dollars a day to the entire amount available in
your account. You should ask your bank or credit union whether your ATM card will have
daily withdrawal and spending limits and, if so, what they will be.
While limits of this kind may seem like an inconvenience, they are
there to safeguard you and your money from unauthorized use of your account. They can also
serve to govern your daily spending, helping you to be more disciplined in managing your
money and your spending habits.

25
ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA
RECORD KEEPING REQUIREMENTS:
ATM cards make it possible to overdraft your bank accounts so they require that you keep
careful record of your spending. With an ATM card it is vital to know what your checking
account balance is at all times. The overdraft fees associated with bank accounts are high
enough that the consequences of overdrafting even by a small amount are quite serious.

HIDDEN FEES:
Hidden fees seen to be lurking around every corner of the financial world. If you are not using
an ATM that is affillated with your bank or credit union then you will likely have to pay a fee.
Although many banks strive to have conveniently located ATM machines. Using any ATM
machine not associated with your bank can deplete your bank account balance.

LOST OR STOLEN CARDS:


Although there are protections out there for identity theft victims, when an ATM card is lost or
stolen it can spell disaster for the card owner. ATM card fell into the wrong hands and be used to
rob your account or make purchases without your knowledge. A the if could use your ATM card
as a Credit card by forging your signature or online purchases simply by knowing your card
number and expiration date. Bank do not offer the same protections on ATM cards as Credit card
so check your financial institution for its policy on unauthorized transactions.

EASE OF OVERSPENDING:
While ATM cards make shopping simple by boiling the process down to the simple swipe of a
card, they also promote overspending. When you shop with cash you know instantly where
you stand financially and how much money remains with a debt or ATM card it becomes
difficult to monitor how much is being spent and how much money is left until the dreaded
card decline or you are hit with an overdraft charge.

26
ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA
11. Advantages Of ATM

USING YOUR ATM CARD TO SHOP MATCHING THE LOGOS:


If you have the logo of one of these card brands on your ATM card and want to use it for
shopping, your ATM card basically works like a check. This kind of card is often called a
money card, cash and check card, check card, or debit card, or it can have a special name
given to it by your bank or credit union. Regardless of its name, this kind of card is still
also your ATM card. Typically, this kind of card does not require the use of a PIN to make
a purchase. You may already carry one of these cards. Look at your card to find out.
Just as the various logos that appear on ATM cards tell you where they can be used to get
cash or make banking can be used to make purchases. Simply match the logos on the store
or at the cash register or just ask whether the store accepts your ATM card. Depending on
which logos you find on your card and whether the store has installed PIN pads, your
purchases can be handled in your PIN, just as you would with a credit card.

MAKING A PURCHASE:
Lets say you have planned to buy a desk lamp. You need all your cash for other things and
dont have your checkbook with you. At the entrance to the store, you notice an ATM
network logo that matches the logo on you card. You decide to use your ATM card to pay.
When you present the lamp to the cashier, you will be asked how you would like to pay for
the purchase. You offer your ATM card. The cashier will confirm that your card is accepted
by the store, and if it is, the following will occur:
1. You will be asked to slide your card through a dot that reads the information contained
in the magnetic stripe on the back of your card.
2. The cashier will then enter the amount of the purchase.
3. You will punch in your PIN, or secret code.
4. The cashier will press a key that initiates an automatic phone call to your bank or
credit union. This confirmed, your bank or credit union automatically deducts the
purchase amount from your account, just like a check. You will receive a receipt of the
transaction, if you want one, when the sale is completed. Make sure you record and
subtract this amount from your account immediately.
AN ATM CARD WILL BE ACCEPTED FAR MORE READILY THAN
AN OUT-OF-STATE CHECK:
When you use an ATM card to make purchases, its easy to tell where it is accepted just
by matching the logos on your card with those at stores that accepted the cards. And the
number of locations that accept ATM cards is constantly expanding, enabling you to stop
in more and more places without cash and cheque.

SMARTER ABOUT ATM CARDS:


As you read this brochure, youll gain a better understanding of how to take advantage
of the conveniences and features of shopping with your ATM card. And youll find the
information you need to use the new service wisely. If you have one of the more than
200 minion ATM cards in circulation today in the United States, yo0u may want to take
it out of your wallet and refer to it as you read along.

Your ATM cards can be a useful tool in helping you develop good money management
habits if you follow these five simple steps:
Established a monthly budget.
1. Stick to your spending limits and track your expenses routinely and carefully.
2. Save your sales and ATM receipts and immediate- deduct purchases and other
transactions from your chequebook or your account register. Be sure to note any fees.
3. Promptly balance your chequebook against your monthly account statement, which lists
all of your purchases and fees.
4. Use your monthly itemized statement as a systematic way to manage your spending
habits, and determine whether your budget is realistic.

ATM CARD PURCHASES CAN OFFER CONVENIENCE WITHOUT


INTEREST CHARGES:

If you use your ATM card to shop, you can get all the convenience of using a card for
purchases, but without being charged interest. However, if you have an ATM card
thats attached ton a checking account with an overdraft line of credit and you
overdraw your account using the card, your bank or credit union will charge interest on
the amount you overdraw, just as they would with a check. If your overdraft protection
is provided by a link to your savings or other account, you may not incur interest
charges. Check with your bank or credit union.

28
ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA
WHETHER YOU USE YOUR PIN OR SIGN A SALES SLIP, YOURE
ASSURED CONFIDENTIALITY:
The only information provided to the store by your bank or credit union when you
make a purchase with your ATM card is whether or not the transaction is approved and
the amount of the purchase. The store does not have access to your account
information, address or telephone number, or any other information that may be
printed on your check.
WHEN A MAJOR CREDIT CARD LOGO IS ON YOUR ATM CARD :
If you have an ATM card that also has on it one of two of the major credit card logos
mentioned previously, your purchase will be handled as if you were using a credit card,
except for three important differences:
I. First, the purchase amount will be deducted automatically from your account
like when you write a check rather than being billed to you at the of the
month.
II. Secondly, typically, youll pay not interest charges, since youre using your
own money on deposit, not borrowing it. (However, there may be other fees
associated with using this card, an issue addressed later in this brochure.)
III. Third, you will usually sign for the purchase instead of punching in your PIN.
However, since this is your ATM card, if a store has installed PIN pads to
accept your PIN, and it accepts one of the other logos on your card, the store
clerk may ask to use your PIN instead of signing.
ATM CARDS CAN GIVE YOU MORE CONTROL IF USED WISELY:

With an ATM card and a PIN or personal identification number you can virtually set
your own branch hours depositing and withdrawing money from your accounts
whenever you wish at your bank or credit union. Whats more ATM cards already give
you access to your money at ATMs located not only at all of your banks locations, but
also at other banks and in stores, airports, office buildings, and street corners across the
United States and worldwide.
YOUR ATM CARD IS BECOMING EVEN MORE USEFUL:

But wide access to ATMs is just the beginning. Technology is enabling banks and credit
unions to introduced new services that allow you to pay for things by making your ATM
card work like a check. This latest improvement can offer conveniences and money
management benefits over cash and checks.
SO KEEP TRACK OF YOUR SPENDING:

Always make sure to keep your receipts, and record your purchases in your checkbook
immediately to prevent overdrawing your account. Its important to remember that
regardless of whether you see your PIN or sign your name, all of your withdrawals and
purchases will be automatically deducted from your account.

TO SHOP
30
ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA
IF ITS NOT OFFERED AUTOMATICALLY, YOU CAN ASK
ABOUT IT:

Most banks and credit unions across the country offer ATM cards. They are usually connected
to a checking or share draft account. When you open an account, you may automatically be
given an ATM card. But if you havent been offered a card, you can ask for one.

You may also want to ask about any additional services available on the card. For example,
most ATM cards can be used for cash withdrawals and other transactions at ATMs in the
United States and around the world. Your bank or credit union may offer with your account the
additional service that allows you to see your ATM card to make purchases by using your PIN
or signing a receipt.

2.YOU MAY NEED TO APPLY FOR SOME ATM CARDS:


In the case of an ATM card with a credit card logo on it, your ability to obtain this card will
depend on the practices of the individual bank or credit union. The list below contains the
kinds of things a bank or credit union considers to determine whether you qualify for this
kind of service. You may be required to provide additional information on an application and
undergo a credit check. The length of your relationship with the bank or credit union
The average balance and status of your account
The number of times per year, if any, you overdraw your account
The number of banking products and services you use
Your credit history

3.COSTS INVOLVED IN USING ATM CARDS


The use of ATM cards naturally involves costs to provide the services. As a result, there may
be fees associated with your use of the card. These vary, depending on your relationship with
the institution and whether you are withdrawing cash or making purchases.
If a fee is charged at all, it can vary widely. For example, you could be charged a few cents,
such as a dime, every time you use the card, or you could be charged a flat monthly fee, such
as one dollar per month, or a combination of such fees. In some cases, fees are waived on the
amount you keep on deposit at your bank or credit union. But, keep in mind that fees
can be higher or lower than those cited here. Check with your bank or credit
union.

4.FEES MUST BE DISCLOSED TO YOU:


Along with knowing your available balance, you should be aware of any charges for using the
card. Fees are established band charged by the banks and credit unions that issue the ATM
cards. If a fee is charged, your bank or credit union must filly detail these fees when get your

31
ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA
card. Every time a fee is charged by the bank or credit union issuing the card, the feel with
appear on your monthly statement.
When an ATM card is used to make purchases, a retailer may add a free to your purchase total.
If this happens, the store is required by law to disclose this to you in a display at the checkout
counter. In this case, the fee is added to your purchase amount, not listed separately on your
statement.

5.QUESTIONS TO ASK WHEN YOU SIGN UP FOR A CARD:


Before you use your ATM card to withdraw cash or shop, you should ask your bank or credit
union about the costs associated with ownership and use of the card. Here are some questions
you might ask:
What are the monthly or annual fees for this card?
What are the per use fees when using this banks or other banks or credit unions
ATMs?
How can I avoid any of these fees?

6.SAFEGUARD THAT PROTECT YOUR CARD AND ITS USE

Two features can make using ATM cards safer than cash and checks.
First, their use is covered by federal regulations that protect both consumers and the
institutions that issue the cards.
Second, technology protects the information about your account.
Its smart to be aware of these regulations and protections. Here a brief summary of the
safeguards that come with your ATM card and what you must do to take advantage of them.

7. YOURE PROTECTED IF YOUR CARD IS LOST OR STOLEN


AND IF SOMEONE USES YOUR CARD FRADULENT.

If you report a lost or stolen ATM card within two business days of discovering the loss or
theft, and report immediately any unauthorized uses of your ATM card that you find on your
monthly statement, your liability is limited by federal regulations to $50. If you do not report
the loss or theft within two days, you could be responsible for up to$500.
If you suspect that your ATM card has been used fraudulently, you must report it to your bank
or credit union within 60 days of receiving the statement on which the questionable activity
appears. If you dont act promptly, you could be liable for the full amount that the
unauthorized user was able to withdraw.

8.YOURE PROTECTED FROM BOOKKEEPING ERRORS:

32
ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA
Federal regulations also protect you against errors that may occur in your bank account during
or as the result of an electronic transfer of funds. Such errors could include:
Omission of a transaction on your statement. For example, a deposit you make at an
ATM does not appear on your next statement.
Incorrect amount deducted from your account. For example, you discover that a
$14.25 purchase that you made last month your ATM card appears on your ATM card
appears on your monthly statement as $142.50.
Bookkeeping error. You pay for your $36 grocery order with your ATM card and find
that the total amount has been deducted from your account twice.
Receipt of incorrect amount. You request $100 from your checking account at an
ATM, but receive only $90.
If you suspect that a mistake has been made in your account, immediately call the bank
or credit union where you have the account. You may be asked to follow up your
phone call with a written report of the suspect error.

13. Nature Of ATM

1.ATM NETWORKS

In recent years, computer systems have achieved an almost explosive increase in


performance, such that developments in the field of data communications have been unable to
keep up. Where the processor performance and memory capacity of PCs have grown over the
past ten years by a factor of a hundred, transfer speeds in wide area networks have risen 'only'
by a factor of ten, and in LANs they have been stayed much the same.

ATM is a standard recognized throughout the world, which provides for the first time a
method for universal information exchange, independent of the end-system and the type of
information (data, audio, and video).The architecture of ATM (53 byte cells) supports the
design of massive parallel
Communication architectures and enables the implementation of networks with transfer rates
in the gigabit range. With the high-speed networks, it is possible to send huge quantities of
data generated by the latest applications (video mail, interactive TV, virtual reality, etc)

ATM is suitable for local area networks as well as wide area networks. The ability of
ATM to emulate traditional LAN and WAN architectures will ensure a smooth transition from
today's computer network infrastructure to ATM-based high-speed technology.

The intense development efforts being made all major manufacturers of data
communication systems in the area of ATM/B-ISDN are evidence of the strategic importance
to the industry of this new transmission technology. ATM is increasingly being adopted as the
central strategic technology for data communication throughout the industry today.

ATM opens the possibility of designing networks with transmission speeds up to the
physical limits. ATM networks with bandwidths approaching the bandwidth of light (30
Terahertz) are imaginable and ATM switches with processing speeds of up to 1
Tbit/s have already been demonstrated in research laboratories. In ATM we may
have on our doorstep the ultimate transfer mechanism in data communications.

34
ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA
2 ATM - ASYNCHRONOUS TRANSFER MODE:

Asynchronous Transfer Mode is a communication standard that uses a high-speed form


of packet switching network as the transmission media ATM was developed as a part of the
Broad band Integrated Services Digital Network (BISDN). ATM is intended to utilize the
synchronous optical network (SONET).
Conventional electronic switching machines currently utilize a central processor to
establish switching paths and route traffic though a network. ATM switches, however, will
include self-routing procedures where individual cells containing subscriber data will route
their own way through the ATM switching network in real time using their own address
instead of relying on an external process to establish the switching path (a cell is a short, fixed
length packet of data)

3The ATM layer:

The main task of the ATM layer is to transport the data passed down to it by the adaptation
layer(AAL) to its intended destination .this makes the ATM layer the transport mechanism in
B-ISDN networks, the information in the ATM layer are 53-byte cells, each of which includes
in its cell header a numerical identifier allocating it to a specific connection .these cell streams
are divided in to two logical hierarchies :Virtual channels and virtual paths. Each cell can be
assigned to be a specific path or channel by reference to their numerical path (VPI,VCI)
contained in its header . VPI/VCI Conversion:
If cells are routed via ATM switches or cross connects ,the VCCI and VPI values applying up
to that point need to converted in to new VPIs or VCIs specifying the cells new destination .
If ATM layer receives n information unit from the AAL layer above it must generate an
appropriate ATM header .It is a central task of the ATM layer to convert network addresses in
the higher levels into the corresponding VPIs and VCI values, the number subscribers are
accessing the physical medium,the GFC field in an ATM cell can be used to control cell
transfer.

The ATM Adaptation layer (AAL):


The job of the AAL layer is to 'segment' the data streams from the higher
applications layer into 48_byte units of information and to reassemble the original data
streams from ATM from cells .the functions of the ATM, layer depend on the
characteristics of the governing applications -that is, the AAL layer is service
-dependent .it consists of two sub-layers: Convergence Layer (CS) and the
Segmentation and reassemble of Sub-layer(SAR).

35
ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA
The different AAL types:
To limit the number of different AAL implementations, four service classes have
been defined for the AAL Layer: AALl, AAL2, AAL3/4 and AAL5. The definition of
the various AAL types is based on the following three parameters.

Real time requirements


Bit rate (constant or variable )
Connection type (connection oriented or Non-connection oriented)
AAL TYPE 0:
AAL type 0 denotes an absence of any AAL function, meaning that AALO is not really an
AAL type in the true sense of the term. The functions of the applications layer are infact
superfluous for any service if the transfer mechanism already based on cells and can therefore
be dispensed with.

AAL TYPE 1:
The type 1 adaptation layer is used to transmit applications with constant bit rate via
the B-ISDN network. In addition AAL type 1 protocol can transfer structured data in
structured form. Lost or erroneous data is not corrected or repeated. As with all other AAL
types the type 1 ATM adaptation layers consists of segmentation and reassembles sub layer
and convergence of layer.

14. Scope for ATM in India

Mumbai, May 30: when we saw a man in a dhoti in a remote town in South India withdraw
money from an ATM, tuck it in the folds and ride away on his cycle, we were truly inspired by
the ATM growth in the country. These were the words with which ICICI Bank general
manager OP Srivastava, described the scope of ATM growth in India.

The focus in the ATM in India conference on Thursday was on increasing the ATM network
in India on a large scale.

Said FSS managing director Nagaraj MyLandla:Currently, India is positioned as the second
fastest country in ATM growth. ATMs are growing three times more in off-site premises
compared to on-site premises. Added Euronet India MD Loney Antony: ATM disbursements
have overtaken the amount utilized by credit cards in comparison.

Other bankers strongly voiced the need for banks to come together and form a consortium of
a shared ATM network for the betterment of the entire economy. Citing valuable points and
examples, the financial top brass urged the banking community to drop the ATM network
within the country.

36
ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA
The need of sharing ATMs was highlighted by Global Trust Bank president PC Narayan. A
shared network will tremendously cut costs within banks, he said, adding that there was no
need for a concentration of ATMs in one area, when all the work could be done by a shared
ATM network.

Furthermore, Mr Narayan said that between the banks who have a shared network, there must
be equal winnings for all. Banks must also have an equal platform on the tech front, while the
service provider must have a disaster recovery program, he added.

UTI Bank senior VP Hemant Kaul felt that the days of viewing ATM as a propreitory tool was
over. Banks must generate revenue from ATMs and for this to happen, a collective effort
must be made, he said.
Mr Kaul also gave three pointers in ATM cost-cutting. Space can be reduced by installing
hole in the world ATMs, security guards who man the ATMs can be cut down, and
networking obviously is a big cost-cutter, he advised.
Moving on ABN Ambro Bank vice-president Ravishankar Venkataraman, stressed on the need
to increase the number of ATMs in the country, while at the same time stating that a networked
partnership was a key to growth.
He added, Revenues can also be generated by displaying advertisements on the ATM screen
or around it, although currently, there is a restriction in that area.

Summary

One of the important services provided by the banks today is of ATM


To briefly summarize the process, an automatic teller machine or ATM allows a bank customer
to conduct their banking transactions from almost every other ATM machine in the world. In
the introductory stages, of the ATM, Don Wetzel invented the first successful and modern
ATM in the USA. However he was not the first inventor to create an ATM. In 1939, Luther
George Simjian started patenting an earlier and not so successful version of an ATM. The
concept of the modern ATM first began in 1968, a working prototype came about in 1969 and
Docutel was installed a patent in 1973. The first working ATM was installed in a New York
based chemical bank

ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA
FINDINGS AND CONCLUSION

This project was a great experience for me and I really learnt a lot of things from this project.
This project gave us the knowledge and information about ATM machines, banks offering
ATM services and also about the people and their attitudes and perceptions towards ATMs.

I have found,

People want the ATM centers to be very close to their houses or place of work.

People want that they should not be made to wait in queues in front of ATM centers.

If possible the banks should improve the software they use and reduce the time required by the
customers.
ATM centers do not provide additional services like cash deposits, cheques deposits, bill
payments, etc, at all its centers, which many people want but they dont get it and leads to
their dissatisfaction and wherever it is available it is charged.
I have also found in this survey that many of the respondents felt that they were feeling
secured using the ATM card, services and this has led to increased satisfaction level of these
respondents which is a good sign.

I also found from this survey that the almost 70% people are satisfied with the number and
location of the ATM centers. But they still insisted that the number should be increased to give
enhanced service and satisfaction to its customers.

People were happy to say that the ATM centers provides the currency in the denomination they
want and this was as good as dealing with the cashier of the bank where you can tell him
which denomination you want.

Another good finding from this survey was that the ATM centers of bank rarely run out of cash
even though it is one of the largest used ATM centers. About 49% of the respondents said that
it never runs out of cash.

51
ATM REVOLUTION IN INDIA
RECOMMENDATIONS

The findings and the conclusions reveal that there is a lot of changes which can be brought
about to improve the perception and satisfaction of the customers towards banks ATM centers.

I recommend that,

Bank should increase the number of ATM centers and at strategic positions.

Software used by the bank should be updated and fast so that people are not made to wait in
the queue.

Bank can bring all its services on the ATM machines.


Facilities like cash deposit should also start at the ATM centers.

To increase the customer base and the customer satisfaction the ATM facility should be made
as secured and safe as possible. ICICI ATM is one of the safest but still there is scope for
improvement.

through a public offering of shares in India in fiscal 1998, an equity offering in the form of
ADRs listed on the NYSE in fiscal 2000, ICICI Bank's acquisition of Bank of Madura Limited
in an all-stock amalgamation in fiscal 2001, and secondary market sales by ICICI to
institutional investors in fiscal 2001 and fiscal 2002. ICICI was formed in 1955 at the
initiative of the World Bank, the Government of India and representatives of Indian industry.

The principal objective was to create a development financial institution for providing
medium-term and long-term project financing to Indian businesses. In the 1990s, ICICI
transformed its business from a development financial institution offering only project finance
to a diversified financial services group offering a wide variety of products and services, both
directly and through a number of subsidiaries and affiliates like ICICI Bank. In 1999, ICICI
become the first Indian company and the first bank or financial institution from non-Japan
Asia to be listed on the NYSE.

After consideration of various corporate structuring alternatives in the context of the emerging
competitive scenario in the Indian banking industry, and the move towards universal banking,
the managements of ICICI and ICICI Bank formed the view that the merger of ICICI with
ICICI Bank would be the optimal strategic alternative for both entities, and would create the
optimal legal structure for the ICICI group's universal banking strategy.

The merger would enhance value for ICICI shareholders through the merged entity's access to
low-cost deposits, greater opportunities for earning fee-based income and the ability to
participate in the payments system and provide transaction-banking services.

The merger would enhance value for ICICI Bank shareholders through a large capital base and
scale of operations, seamless access to ICICI's strong corporate relationships built up over five
decades, entry into new business segments, higher market share in various business segments,
particularly fee-based services, and access to the vast talent pool of ICICI and its subsidiaries.

In October 2001, the Boards of Directors of ICICI and ICICI Bank approved the merger of
ICICI and two of its wholly-owned retail finance subsidiaries, ICICI Personal Financial
Services Limited and ICICI Capital Services Limited, with ICICI Bank.

The merger was approved by shareholders of ICICI and ICICI Bank in January 2002, by the
High Court of Gujarat at Ahmedabad in March 2002, and by the High Court of Judicature at
Mumbai and the Reserve Bank of India in April 2002. Consequent to the merger, the ICICI
group's financing and banking operations, both wholesale and retail, have been integrated in a
single entity.
