INTRODUCTION
What is a bank?
Definition:
The word bank comes from French word „Banque‟ which means bench or money
exchange table.
A bank is also known as financial institution that accepts money from public or investors and lends
money to fund seeker or the person who are in need.
The lending activities can be done directly or indirectly through securities market. Banks are highly
regulated in most of the countries because banks play an important role in building the financial
stability and the economy of a country.
Under the banking regulation Act, 1949 is legislation in India that regulates all banking firms in India;
it came into force from 16th March 1949.
In 2020, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitaraman introduced a bill to amend the Act. The bill sought to
bring all cooperative banks under the Reserve Bank of India, It brought 1,482 urban banks and 58
multi-state co-operative banks under the supervision of Reserve Bank of India. The bill granted the
RBI ability.
Under this project we are going to analyze the financial statement and customer satisfaction of Kotak
Mahindra Bank.
Financial analysis is the process of analyzing a company‘s financial statement for decision making
purposes. It refers to an assessment of the viability, stability and profitability of a business or a firm.
The importance of financial analysis is to analyze entity data, whether it is stable, solvent, liquid or
profitable enough to warrant a monetary investment. Under Financial analysis, we need Financial
statements or financial reports of a business, person, or other entity
Customer satisfaction is a measure of how products and services provide by any organization meet
the expectations of a customer. It varies from person to person and service to service. A customer can
be defined as a user or potential user of banking services.

THE EVOLUTION OF BANKING IN INDIA
Banking in India forms the base for the economic development of the country. Major changes in the
banking system and management have been seen over the years with the advancement in technology,
considering the needs of people. The Indian banking system consists of commercial banks, which
may be public scheduled or non-scheduled, private, regional, rural and cooperative banks. The
banking system in India defines banking through the Banking Companies Act of 1949.
Without an effective Banking System, India cannot have a healthy economy. The banking system should
be trouble free & it should be able to accept new technology & other factors. India‘s Banking System has
many remarkable achievements. The banking system has also reached the rural areas of the country.
The first bank of India was the ―Bank of Hindustan‖, established in 1770 and located in the then
Indian capital, Calcutta. However, this bank failed to work and ceased operations in 1832.
During the Pre Independence period over 600 banks had been present and registered in the country,
but only a few managed to survive. Following the path of Bank of Hindustan, various other banks
were established in India. They were:
During the British rule in India, The East India Company had established three banks: Bank of
Bengal, Bank of Bombay and Bank of Madras and called them the Presidential Banks. These three
banks were later merged into one single bank in 1921, which was called the ―Imperial Bank of India.‖
The Imperial Bank of India was later nationalized in 1955 and was named The State Bank of India,
which is currently the largest Public sector Bank.

PRE-INDEPENCE BANKS IN INDIA
At the time when India got independence, all the major banks of the country were led privately which
was a cause of concern as the people belonging to rural areas were still dependent on money lenders
for financial assistance.
In 1975, the government of India recognized that several groups were financially excluded. Between
1982 and 1990, it created banking institutions with specialized fuctions in line with the evolution of
financial services in India
With an aim to solve this problem, the then Government decided to nationalize the Banks. These
banks were nationalized under the Banking Regulation Act, 1949. Whereas, the Reserve Bank of
India was nationalized in 1949.
Candidates can check the list of Banking sector reforms and Acts at the linked article.
Following it was the formation of State Bank of India in 1955 and the other 14 banks were
nationalized between the time duration of 1969 to 1991. These were the banks whose national
deposits were more than 50 crores.
3|Pag e

Given below is the list of these 14 Banks nationalized in 1969:
In the year 1980, another 6 banks were nationalized, taking the number to 20 banks. These banks
included:
Apart from the above mentioned 20 banks, there were seven subsidiaries of SBI which were
nationalised in 1959:
All these banks were later merged with the State Bank of India in 2017, except for the State Bank of
Saurashtra, which merged in 2008 and State Bank of Indore, which merged in 2010.
Once the banks were established in the country, regular monitoring and regulations need to be
followed to continue the profits provided by the banking sector. The last phase or the ongoing phase
of the banking sector development plays a hugely significant role.
To provide stability and profitability to the Nationalised Public sector Banks, the Government decided
to set up a committee under the leadership of Shri. M Narasimham to manage the various reforms in
the Indian banking industry.

The biggest development was the introduction of Private sector banks in India. RBI gave license to 10
Private sector banks to establish themselves in the country. These banks included:

banks also provide housing loans to individuals on long term basis.
The institutions that accept deposits from the general public and advance loans with the purpose of
earning profits are known as Commercial Banks.
Commercial banks can be broadly divided into public sector, private sector, foreign banks and RRBs.
In Public Sector Banks the majority stake is held by the government. After the recent amalgamation of
smaller banks with larger banks, there are 12 public sector banks in India as of now. An example of Public
Sector Bank is State Bank of India.

business houses. A few major private sector banks in India are HDFC Bank, Kotak Mahindra Bank, ICICI
Bank etc.

entity at any other location outside the country. Such banks are under an obligation to operate under the
regulations provided by the central bank of the country as well as the rule prescribed by the parent
organization located outside India. An example of Foreign Bank in India is Citi Bank.
Regional Rural Banks were established under the Regional Rural Banks Ordinance, 1975 with the aim
of ensuring sufficient institutional credit for agriculture and other rural sectors. The area of operation of
RRBs is limited to the area notified by the Government. RRBs are owned jointly by the Government of
India, the State Government and Sponsor Banks. An example of RRB in India is Arunachal Pradesh Rural

Topic: The Merger and Acquisition Deal Brings Leveraging Synergy – An Analysis of Kotak
Mahindra Bank & ING VYSYA Bank
Keywords: Keywords: Merger and Acquisition, leverage. Synergy
One of the main objectives of Merger &Acquisition in banking industry is to reap the advantages of
economies of scales. The process of acquisition of ING Vysya bank was started by kotak Mahindra
bank on November 2014. For analyzing qualitative content of this topic we have used Case study
approach, this case study reveal the strategic motives of kotak Mahindra bank.
Conclusion: Why are bank mergers in India so few and far between? "It is partly because of
restrictions imposed by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), especially on foreign banks, on M&As and
also the public sector nature of the banking system," says the CEO of a private-sector bank who does
not wish to be named.
Today, state-run banks dominate the banking system with three-fourth market share in deposits and
loans. The number of commercial banks operating in the country has risen to 90 from 84 in 2005/06
thanks to the entry of some foreign lenders. In the past, foreign banks have shown interest in M&As
but the RBI is not comfortable as these banks operate as a branch of their parent companies. The RBI
has issued guidelines that allow foreign banks to operate or convert into wholly owned subsidiaries of
their parent companies in India, thereby opening the door for selective M&As. Proponents of
consolidation argue that there are too many banks in India.
The Kotak-ING Vysya deal has sparked speculation that some other old private-sector banks could be
the target of large lenders. Old private-sector lenders, including Dhanlaxmi Bank, Lakshmi Vilas
Bank, Karur Vysya Bank, and South India Bank have a share of around five per cent in deposits and
advances. So even if one large private bank acquires half a dozen such lenders, it won't create a
45 | P a g e
meaningful size for the acquirer. C. Jayaram, Joint MD at Kotak Mahindra Bank, says consolidation
has been talked about for a long time. "Hopefully, this [Kotak-ING merger] will set off some thinking
both in the private as well as the public sector," he says In fact, for more than a decade, there has been
talk of encouraging consolidation to create a few banks of the size of SBI. But there has been little
action on the ground.
There are legacy issues; staff too old to adapt, overlapping of branches and products, and resistance
from employee unions, among others. There are some who question the merits of consolidation. The
size and scale shouldn't be the sole criterion for M&As, and customers should be the focus of banking
services. They say the RBI's differentiated licensing is the way forward. The RBI's decision to grant
bank licenses to infrastructure lender IDFC and Bandhan Financial, a microfinance institution, and
the intention to set up payment banks and small banks will take banking services to a whole new
customer set. RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan also recently cautioned on merging weak banks. "If two
unhealthy banks were merged, then the created entity will also be unhealthy and could create a bigger
problem in the economy," he said
Vinod Kumar and Bhawna Malhotra(2017), attempted has been made to evaluate the
performance & financial soundness of selected Private Banks in India for the period 2007-2017.
CAMEL approach has been used. This study concluded that the Axis bank is ranked first under
the CAMEL analysis followed by ICICI bank. Kotak Mahindra occupied the third position. The
fourth position is occupied by HDFC bank and the last position is occupied by IndusInd bank
amongst all the selected banks.
By considering all of the parameter of CAMEL, it is seen that Axis bank is at the top position as
assessed by the CAMEL Model compared to other bankunder the study. Axis bank has strong
performance in case of Asset Quality, Management efficiency and Earnings. Ability while it is lag
behind in case of capital adequacy. On the other side, IndusIndbank at the lowest position compared
to other banks under the study due to its poor performance in the context of Capital Adequacy,
Earnings Ability and Liquidity whereas it perform better in case of capital adequacy. Therefore,
IndusInd bank should improve its position in particular weak areas. Therefore, the policymakers of
the related lowest ranking banks should take necessary steps and try to find out solution to improve
their weaknesses by using the findings this study

Conclusion
This study finally concluded that the financial performance Kotak Mahindra Bank. India‘s second
largest private sectors bank in terms of market share over the past five financial years i.e., 2014, 2015,
2016, 2017 and 2018. The financial performance of above mentioned bank has been evaluated giving

The profitability ratios are calculated i.e., Fixed Assets Ratio, Debit – Equity Ratio and Proprietary
ratio and give interpretation to each ratios. This has been done with a view to obtain an understanding
of the financial position of the bank and how it has been performing past five financial years. The
fluctuations of current ratio shows the Bank`s ability to meet its short-term liabilities are satisfactory
in the study period. The trend of the super quick ratio in the current year implies that the bank is
highly capable of liquidating its funds. This downward trend was in the fixed assets ratio unfavorable
position of the Bank. This ratio was less than one in the study period. It indicates that a portion of
working capital has been financed by long – term funds.
