INTRODUCTION
Banking system always has an important role to play in every
country’s economy. It is vital for any nation as it provides for the needs of
credit for all the sections of the society. India is not only the world’s largest
independent democracy but it is also an emerging economic giant. The
growth potential of India is based on its strong banking institution. The
infusion of information technology in banking sector has completely
revolutionized how the banking sector operated. In order to survive in the
new globalized world, banks had to opt for this new change. Banking in
India has been through a long journey. It has seen a number of changes due
to technology and innovation. Arrival of card, introduction of Electronic
Clearing Service (ECS) introduction of Electronic Funds Transfer and
concept of online banking and mobile banking are the various novelties
which took place in banking sector. Now all the banks have started with the
concept of multi- channels, like ATMs, credit cards, debit cards,
telephone/mobile banking, internet banking, etc. The role of banking has
now changed from a mere financial intermediary to service provider of
various financial services under one roof acting like a financial supermarket.
With extreme competition among the banks, entire banking system is
undergoing a change. Today, modern banking not only looks for new ways
to attract but also to retain the customers and gain competitive advantage
over their competitors.
WHAT IS E-BANKING
Electronic banking (e-banking) is defined as the automated delivery of
new and traditional banking products and services directly to customers
through electronic, interactive communication channels. Internet banking
is just like normal banking, with one big exception. We don’t have to go to
the bank for transactions. Instead, we can access our account any time and
from any part of the world, and do so when we have the time, and not
when the bank is open. For busy executives, students, and home markers-
banking virtual blessing.
Banks offer internet banking in two main ways. An existing bank
with physical offices can establish a Web site and offer Internet banking to

EVOLUTION OF E-BANKING:-
The story of technology in banking started with the use of punched card
machines like accounting machines or ledger posting machines. The use of
technology, at that time, was limited to keeping books of the bank. If
further developed with the birth of online real time system and vast
improvement in telecommunications during late 1970’s and 1980’s it a
resulted in a revolution in the field of banking with “convenience banking”
as a buzzword. Through convenience banking, the bank is carried to the
doorstep of the customer. The 1990’s saw the birth of distributed
computing technologies and Relational Data Base Management System.
The banking industry was simply waiting for these technologies. Now with
distribution technologies, one could configure dedicated machines called
front-end machines for customer service and risk control while
communication in the batch mode without hampering the response time
on the front-end machine.

HISTORY OF E-BANKING:-
The precursor for the modern home online banking services
were the distance banking services over electronic media from the early
80s. The term online become popular in the late 80s and refers to the use
of a terminal, keyboard and TV or Monitor to access the banking system
using a phone line. “Home Banking” can also refer the use of numeric
keypad to send tones down a phone line with instructions to the bank.
Online services started in New York in 1981 when four of the city’s major
banks (Citibank, chase Manhattan, chemical and manufacturer’s hangover)
offer home banking services using the videotext these banking services
never become popular except in France where the use of videotext
(Minitel) was subsidized by the telecom provider and the UK, where the
pestle system was used. The UK’s first home online banking services were
set up by the Nottingham Building society(NBS) in 1983. The system used
was based on the UK’s pestle system and used a computer ,such as the BBC
Micro, or keyboard connected to the telephone system and television set
.The system (known as ‘Home link’) allowed on-line viewing of statement,
bank transfer and bill payment. In order to make bank transfers and bill
payment, a written instruction giving details of the intended recipient had
to be sent to the NBS who set the details up on the Home link system
Typical recipient were gas, electricity and telephone companies and
accounts with other bank. Details of payments to be made where input into
the NBS system by the account holder via pestle. A cheque was then send
by NBS to the payee and an advice giving details of the payment was sent
to the account holder. BACS was later used to transfer the payment
directly. Stanford federal credit Union was the first financial institution to
offer online internet banking services to all of its members in Oct,1994.
OBJECTIVES OF STUDY :-
The present study aims to examine the progress of online banking
in India. IN this broader framework, an attempt is made to achieve the
following specific objectives:-
1. To analyze the present e-banking scenario concerned with ATM,
Mobile banking, Debit cards, credit cards, smart cards, PC Banking,
Internet Banking, and Wireless/PDA banking in India.

LIMITATIONS OF STUDY :-
I. Due to time constraint it is not possible to finish my study
adequately.
II. Another limitation is the quality and originality or secondary data
taken via. Website of different commercial banks of RBI.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY :-
The validity of any research is based on the systemic method of data
collection and analysis. The present study is based on secondary

I. Secondary data
LITERATURE REVIEW :-
Internet revolution is a global phenomenon and going by the current
growth statistic, India expects a spurt in the internet penetration in coming
years particularly in the electronic commerce. It is an obvious notion that
internet banking and payments are likely to progress in tandem with the e-
commerce. The internet has proved to be a very cost effective delivery
platform, because of its inherent built-in qualities.
Dr. Karuna Gupta, Mr. Ravindra Arya, (2017) focused on emerging trends
in the banking sector in India, he focused on the banking sector with
reference to digitalization. The digitalization of banking system leads to a
strong foundation in of economy and to ready to become cashless
economy to transform the Indian banking industry.

CHAPTER - 2
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
Internet banking handles many banking transactions via personal computer
.For instance ,we may use our computer to view our account balance
,request transfer between accounts, and pay bills electronically .Internet
Banking system and method in which a personal computer is connected by
a network service provider directly to a host computer system of a bank
such that customer service request can be processed automatically without
need for intervention by customer service representatives. The system is
capable of distinguishing between those customer service requests which
are capable of automated fulfillment and those requests which require
handling by a customer service representative .The system is integrated
with the host computer system of the bank so that the remote banking
customer can access other automated service of the bank .The method of
invention includes the steps of inputting a customer banking requests from
among a menu of banking requests at a remote personal computer;
transmitting the banking requests to a host computer over a network;
receiving the request at the host computer; indentifying the type of
customer banking request received; automatic logged of the service
request, comparing the received request to a stored table of request types,
each of the request types having an attribute to indicate whether the
request type is capable of being fulfilled by a customer service
representative or by an automated system; and, depending upon the
attribute directing the request either to a queue for processing by an
automated system. On the basis above discussion, it can be said brief that-
internet banking handles many banking transaction via personal computer.
For instance, we may use our computer to view our account balance,
request transfers between accounts, and pay bills electronically.
CENTRAL CLEARING
HEAD OFFICE
INTERNATIONAL SCENARIO:-
In U.S.A the internet banking is relatively develop with a fairly large
number of transaction website and business volumes. However, the large
banks are more dominate than the small banks in offering internet-based
banking services. It has been found that E-Banks are more profitable than
one E-Banks but no sufficient. This is probably because of lack of value
added proposition that banks offer to customer.
In Europe, the internet banking is growing gradually and most of the
prominent banks are offering internet banking service. Swedish and finish
markets and market leaders lead the world in terms of internet penetration
and the range and quality their online services. Internet banking started
slowly in Australia, but now is packing very fast.
In Zealand, the major banks offer internet banking service to
customer; operate as a division of a bank rather than as a separate legal
entity. Reserve bank of New Zealand applies a uniform approach to the
regulation of both internet banking activities and traditional banking
activities. Banks in Japan are increasingly focusing on E-Banking transaction
with customers and internet baking is an important part of their strategy.
Based on the experience in native countries, the foreign banks are trying
hard capture the market. But these banks have to restructure their
business models suitable to Indian conditions.

Benefits of Customers
Consumers can use their computers and telephone modem to dial
in from home or any sit where they have access to computer.
The services are available seven days a week, 24 hours a day.
Transaction are executed and confirmed quickly, although not
instantaneously. Processing time is comparable to that of an ATM
transaction.
In general, the customer will find lower fees and higher interest
rates for deposit due to the reduced cost of operating online and
not needing numerous physical bank branches .
Save Money :-
In addition to making money, the bank can save money with an Internet
banking system. Online banking can actually decrease operating costs by
reducing the daily reproduction and distribution of paper-drawn
transaction and delivering and processing statements for accounts, credit
cards, and bills. Performing transactions via the internet also provides cost
savings, as indicated by a study done by Booz.
10
DISADVANTAGES OF E-BANKING :-
The most obvious disadvantages is: technophobes need not apply i.e. if we
are still not comfortable using a computer, E-banking is not for us.
TYPES OF E-BANKING :
◈ Mobile Banking
◈ Pc Banking
◈ Internet Banking
◈ SMS Banking
◈ Telephone Banking
11
Advantages of ATM:-
To Banks:-
Less space required
Capital expenditure is lower as compare to branch
Bank’s staff gets more time to do marketing
Lower transaction cost
To Customer:-
Convenience of shopping no need to carry cash
No need to visit bank for transaction
Banking anytime, anywhere ,anyhow
Fast and efficient service
Disadvantages of ATM :-
Customer do not have proper knowledge of its operation so feel
hesitate to use it.
If ATM card is lost ,no withdrawal of rupees .There is possibility of
misusing and hack the ATM card .
Due to leakage of PIN , fraud can take place easily .
Limitation of withdrawal of money .
The wait ,with all the promise of ATM’s capabilities many details
are still in the standard process.
12
DEBIT CARD
A Debit card is also known as a check card. A debit card looks like a credit
card but works like a check . When we use a debit card to pay , the money
is taken right away from our checking or savings account .We must be sure
that we have enough money in our bank account to cover the cost of the
items we buy .
We will have a PIN or Personal Identification Number that we must
remember to use a debit card. We can use a debit card to pay at most
stores and restaurants .Be sure to record the cost of the items we buy with
our debit card in our check register. Then subtract the amount spent from
our balance . A check register is a record of the money that is put into a
checking account . It is also a record of the money taken out of the account
.
CREDIT CARD
A credit card is a thin plastic card that can be used to buy items.
A credit card might be used to buy food or restaurant meals. A credit card
allows us to pay later for the items we bought . This is called charging. It
means that we have paid for the items with our credit card. We promise to
pay when we sign the credit card receipt in the store. Credit cards can be
issued from a store , a bank or company.
We will be billed monthly for items we have charged. We can
pay the entire amount owed. Or, we can pay a part of the bill each month.
Our monthly bill will tell us the minimum payment we must pay each
month. Minimum payment is the smallest amount we can pay each
month. We will be charged interest on the total amount we owe. Interest
is the amount of money credit card companies charge for using a credit
card. Interest is figured in percentages.
SMART CARD
A smart card is a card or similar device with an embedded integrated circuit
chip. Smart cards typically look like a credit card , although they can take
different forms . What makes the card smart is the embedded chip . The
chip is a powerful minicomputer that can be programmed for different
applications .
The chip enables a smart card to store and access data and
applications securely and exchange data securely with readers and other
systems . Smart card technology can provide high levels of security and
privacy protection.
KIOSK MACHINE
A kiosk is a small , free structure that displays information or provides a
service . Kiosk can be manned or unmanned , and unmanned kiosk can be
digital or non digital .In business , kiosks are often used in locations with
high foot traffic . In shopping mall ,for example an unmanned , non –
digital kiosk can be placed near entrance to provide people passing by with
directions or promotional messaging . Manned kiosks temporarily set up in
Aisels can provide businesses that have seasonal sales cycles with a cost
effective way to display wares , and digital kiosks placed near movie
theatres can provide online banking or ticket sales services.
Sales increase ;
Kiosks that provide self-service are the way of the future. They boost
productivity, streamline procedures, and increase income — all while
creating happier consumers. Kiosks are engineered to more
successfully upsell and cross-sell than personnel. They also avoid the
possibility of social criticism because they do not require a human
connection.
16
Personalized Experience :
Self-service kiosks not only expedite the procedure; they also
improve the overall experience. Kiosks may provide unprecedented
levels of personalization and customization, with selections tailored
directly to the user. They also help with order accuracy. In-store
customer experience is substantially enhanced with reduced wait
time and more people ready to assist consumers throughout their
purchasing journey.
Layoff Criticism :
In a perfect scenario, self-ordering kiosks would increase earnings,
and the gain would be recirculated via the company’s resources,
including its employees. Displacement of employees should not be
considered a disadvantage if that is one of the aims. Adopting self-
order kiosks means allowing technology to do what it does best
while freeing up personnel to do what humans do best: optimize
resources rather than jeopardize them.
17
PC BANKING
PC banking allows the customer to access the information
regarding to their bank accounts through a dial up connection. They can
also download the information and process it in their own manners. It is
different from the internet banking in the sense that internet banking is
done over a highly accessible public networks, whereas PC banking is
accessible just to bank’s customers.
ADVANTAGES OF PC BANKING
PC banking makes things easier , We can access our account
just from our home PC , 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. All we
need is a computer with an internet connection, and a card reader,
which can be obtained at our four Fortis bank. The card reader gives
us unique codes based on our bank card and pin number, so our
account stays safe.
PC banking goes faster
PC Banking enables us round-the-clock access.
We usually do not think to stand a queue as a way to perform
important banking transaction. The PC banking enables us to do just
that suitable from the ultimate comfort and privacy of our homes.
In comparison towards the online banking program, the PC
banking provide us increased security.
DISADVANTAGES OF PC BANKING
There is no personal interaction between our self and the
bank.
We can access our account from the PC that we originally
installed the software.
We cannot deposit physical cash using internet banking i.e.
cheques, cash in hand. This would require a personal visit to bank.
18
MOBILE BANKING
Mobile banking comes in as a part of the bank initiative to offer multiple
channels banking providing convenience for its customer. A versatile
multifunctional, free service that is accessible and viewable at the monitor
of mobile phone. Mobile phones are playing great role in banking and other
channels.
Mobile banking can be divided into two broad categories of facilities:-
Alert facility :-
Mobile banking alert facility keeps us informed about the significant
transaction in our account. It keeps our update where ever we go.
Request facility :-
Mobile banking request facility enables us to query for our account
balance.
SMS BANKING
It is a form of mobile banking . It is a facility used by some banks or other
financial institutions to send messages (also called notifications or alerts )
to customers mobile phones using SMS messaging , or a service provide by
them which enables customers to perform some financial transactions
using SMS.
INTERNET BANKING
Internet banking let us handle many baking transaction via our personal
computer. For instance, we may use our computer to view our account
balance, me test between accounts, and pay bills electronically. Internet
banking system and method in which a personal computer is connected by
a network service provider directly to a host computer system of a bank
such that customer service requests can be processed automatically.
The obvious advantage to the consumer is convince one bank recently
used the advertising motto "bank naked to emphasize the customer's
freedom to conduct routine banking transaction from the comfort and
security of his/her home 24X7.
Types of Internet Banking:-
There are three basic type of internet banking that is being employed
in the market place:
INFORMATION.
COMMUNICATION.
TRANSACTION.
Security concerns:-
With hacking and identity theft on of trust in the bank that their
account information and personal information are safe.
Customer service:-
If our bank or a traditional bank, we can go to the bank and
speck to someone face to face about our problem but, with an
internet bank, we will likely spend a lot of time on the phone being
passed around and placed on hold.
Fees:-
Many internet banks don't have ATMs, which means we will have
to pay ATM fees. This can cost us more money that paying the
regular monthly fees at a brick and mortar bank.
ONLINE SECURITY SYSTEMS:-
Most institutions providing online banking services are very security
conscious. After all, they wouldn't want to open their computers to a
stampeding public, would they? The security measures that organizations
take over the web are simply invincible, unlike the surveillance cameras
and lobby guards posted in many banks. If the general public is aware of, or
understand, the many features put into a place to guard their finances, and
then people remain skeptical.
Firewalls :
A firewall is a computer or software that protects the bank's computers
and data from being accessed by any outsider. This firewall is located at the
point where the bank's world connects with the rest of the world. This
firewall is basically a gatekeeper, checking each attempt at delivery of data
with a list of strict specifications; any criteria not met; does not make it past
the firewall.
Digital Signatures:
Digital signature essentially use encryption to scramble information in
way that only the party who issued the certificate (usually the online store
or a trusted third party) can decrypt and read. online merchants can be
more confident that the customer placing the purchasing order is indeed
entitled to use the payment card in question. Security experts believe that
digital signatures will encourage more consumer to purchase goods online.
Access Codes :
The access codes used to identify us to the online banking system are called
passwords, and are further protected by using PINS (personal Identification
number).

RISK MEASUREMENT
E-BANKING RISK:-
◈ Strategic Risk
◈ Operational Risk:
Technology infrastructure
Security
Data integrity
System availability
Internal control
◈ Reputational Risk
◈ Legal Risk
◈ Other traditional banking Risk
Credit Risk
Liquidity Risk
Market Risk
Foreign Risk
Liquidity risk:
The speed with which the information and misinformation moves
over the internet can have implication for liquidity risk profile of
banks. Adverse information about bank, whether it is true or not, a
can be easily disseminated over the internal through bulletin boards
and news groups.
Market risk:
The impact of recent growth in securities issuance and trading
over the internet on banks market risk is complex. From a market
standpoint, the increase volume of securities, which are traded over
the internet volatility, but on the other hand, it can lead to
increased liquidity. From an individual bank's standpoint, banks may
be exposed to increase market risk if they create or expand deposits
brokering, loan sales, or securitization programmer as a result of
internet banking activities.
