EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In few years JAMMU & KASHMIR BANK financial services has emerged as a tool for ensuring
ones financial well-being. P.O.S machines, CREDIT cards, DEBIT cards etc. have helped
families tap into the success of Indian industries. As information and awareness is rising more
and more people are enjoying the benefits of investing in mutual funds and using various
services. The trick for converting a person with no knowledge of services to a profitable
customer is to understand which of the potential customers are more likely to buy credit card,
POS machine, debit card and to use the right argument in the sales process that customers will
accept as important and relevant to their decision.
This project gave me a great learning experience and at the same time it gave me enough scope
to implement my marketing ability in the sale of the services offered by the bank. This report
will help to know about the various financial services offered by the J&K bank and the people
response to them. The report throws some light on some factors that lead to the preference of
J&K bank services over other banks. I hope the research findings and conclusions will be of use.

INTRODUCTION TO THE INDIAN BANKING SYSTEM
The Indian Banking system has a large geographic and functional coverage. Presently the total
asset size of the Indian banking sector is US$ 270 billion with a branch network exceeding
66,000 branches across the country. Revenues of the banking sector have grown at 6 per cent
CAGR over the past few years to reach a size of US$ 15 billion. While commercial banks cater
to short and medium term financing requirements, national level and state level financial
institutions meet longer-term requirements. This distinction is getting blurred with commercial
banks extending project finance. The total disbursements of the financial institutions in 2001
were US$ 14 billion.
BANKING
Banks are the institutions where those who have some savings can keep their money in the form
of deposits & those who need money borrow money on payment of interest with certain
conditions that assure recovery of the borrowed money. The rate of interest charged by the bank
from its borrower is usually higher than what it pays to the depositor.
In addition to the safe money keeping of depositor and money lending to the borrower a bank
also helps people in many kinds of money transactions. In brief the main functions of bank are:-
Receiving money from the depositors
Lending money on demand

Role played during summer internship at J&K bank
During my summer training at J&K bank ltd. Financial services division zonal office Jammu
(central), besides undergoing my project availability and visibility of F.S.P. of J&K bank ltd.I
had an opportunity to be a part of the then ongoing credit cards debit cards, P.O.S. machines, e-
banking and mutual funds.
During the then ongoing merchant acquisition drive assigned the task to bring P.O.S.machine
credit cards, debit cards, business by visiting targeted merchants establishments and convince
them to install P.O.S. machine at their establishments. Though it was a very tough job but still I
was able to meet a few and finally 4 of them got convinced to install the P.O.S. and also helped
the bank in selling credit cards and debit cards by awaring people during the marketing.
The schedule of my six week training was that:
During the first week I had to gather the knowledge of P.O.S.machine, credit cards, debit cards
and e-banking
In the second and the third week I was directly involved in the sales team of the bank and used to
make people aware about the F.S.P.s in the various branches of the bank like LAKHDATA
BAZAAR, SHALAMAR, PATEL NAGAR, SMGS, UPPER GUMAT, RESIDENCY.
In the fourth week I was assigned the task of the sale of P.O.S.machines, credit cards debit cards
to the different customers and seek the apprehensions incurred by the merchants and help them
in the best possible way.
During the end of my summer internship I had conducted a survey about the factors that are
more critical in J&K banks success and preference in J&KState and assess its availability.
This whole experience and real market exposure help me to mould myself to get acquaint to the
market conditions and made me strong to face and overcome market challenges and enhance my
skills. I strongly feel that this would certainly help me in my upcoming future.

INTRODUCTION TO
CREDIT CARD
CREDIT CARD
A credit card is part of a system of payments named after the small plastic card issued to the
users of the system. It is a card entitling its holder to buy goods and services based on the holders
promise to pay of these goods and services. The issuer of the card grants a line of credit to the
consumer (or the user) from which the user can borrow money for payment to a merchant or as a
cash advance to the user.
A credit card is different from a charge card requires the balance to be paid in full each month. In
contrast, credit cards allow the consumers to revolve their balance, at the cost of having interest
charged. Most credit cards are issued by local banks or credit unions, and are the shape and size
specified by the ISO/IEC 7810 standard as ID-1.
Features of credit cards:
It is a piece of plastic about 3.5x2 inches in size. Some of the features of credit cards are as below:
LOGOS:
The card carries logos of the card association (Visa, MasterCard) as well as that of the issuing bank
(J&K, ICICI, HDFC and so on ) in the front of the card.
NUMBER:
The card number is embossed in the front. This is usually a 16-digit number. The first number
symbolizes the major industry. Banking industry cards usually start with 4,5 or 6. The first six digits
identify the issuing organization. The next nine digits denote the individuals account number. The last
digit is a check digit.
NAME:
Also embossed on the front of the card in the name of the cardholder.
EXPIRY DATE:
The date till which the card is valid is embossed on the front of the card.
10
MAGNETIC STRIPE:
There is a magnetic stripe (called magstripe) running through the length on the card on the reverse. This
contains the identification information of the card which is transmitted during a transaction.
CVV NUMBER:
This is a three digit number that appears on the reverse of the card after the 16-digit card number.
CONTACT NUMBER:
On the reverse of the card the issuing banks contact numbers are printed. The cardholder can call these
numbers for any card related queries.
SIGNATURE:
There is a space below the magnetic stripe where the cardholder is mandatory to sign.
Secure code:
A Master card secure code is also provided to the customers of the bank. It is a very important
because it protects their customers at that time when they are doing online shopping. As we
know that credit card can also be mis-utilized by anyone so in order to prevent their customers,
they have to fill their secure code in the Gate Way of the J&K Bank during online shopping.
11
Using J&K Bank Credit Card is extremely simple. After making transaction or availing of the service
provided by the Merchant Establishment, present J&K Bank Credit Card.
Upon processing J&K Bank Card transaction, the Merchant will request to customer to sign a charge
slip (refer to the image alongside). This contains details about the amount to be billed to J&K Bank
Credit Card. If Customer wish to leave a tip or miscellaneous charge, they can do so by filling in the
same on the charge slip. After filling in this section, in the interest of their own safety, J&KBank
recommend that customer write out the total amount in the charge slip before signing.
Please ensure that customer sign on the charge slip in the same way they have signed on the reverse of
the Card.
The Merchant Establishment will return the copy of the bill(s) and the charge slip along with customer
Card. Customer has to match the amounts before leaving the establishment.
It is recommended to retain customer copy of the charge slip and the corresponding bill till such time
as the amount is reflected in their Card billing statement.
Customer Monthly Credit Card Statement is a statement of accounts with a summary of transactions
made through their J&K Bank Credit Card for the previous month, giving the details of the
transactions made through J&KBank Card, during the period.

INTRODUCTION TO
DEBIT CARD/ATM CARD
DEBIT CARD
A debit card (also known as a bank card or check card) is a plastic card that provides the
cardholder electronic access to his or her bank account/s at a financial institution. Some cards
have a stored value with which a payment is made, while most relay a message to the
cardholder's bank to withdraw funds from a designated account in favour of the payee's
designated bank account. The card can be used as an alternative payment method to cash when
making purchases. In some cases, the cards are designed exclusively for use on the Internet, and
so there is no physical card.
In many countries the use of debit cards has become so widespread that their volume of use has
overtaken or entirely replaced the check and, in some instances, cash transactions. Like credit
cards, debit cards are used widely for telephone and Internet purchases.
However, unlike credit cards, the funds paid using a debit card are transferred immediately from
the bearer's bank account, instead of having the bearer pay back the money at a later date.
Debit cards usually also allow for instant withdrawal of cash, acting as the ATM card for
withdrawing cash and as a check guarantee card. Merchants may also offer cash back facilities to
customers, where a customer can withdraw cash along with their purchase.

Pin Based -Maestro / Cirrus Debit Card.

INTRODUCTION
TO
POINT OF SALES/SERVICE MACHINE
POINT OF SALE/SERVICE MACHINE
A point of sale/ service (pos) machine is used to conduct retail transactions. It can provide many
services, including credit card processing, check reading and cash transactions, depending on the
model. These devices can be found virtually anywhere, from grocery stores to gas stations. The
technology used in pos machines results in a speedy and secure transaction.
Point of sale/service (pos) machine or checkout is the location where a transaction occurs. A
checkout refers to a pos terminal or more generally to the hardware and software used for
checkouts, the equivalent of an electronic cash register.
A pos terminal manages the selling process by a sales person accessible interface. The same
system allows the creation and printing of the voucher.
19
Operating Systems:
Microsoft offers POS platforms that are embedded with various versions of Microsoft Windows
operating systems. The use of Windows-based graphical user interfaces increases the
accessibility of the POS for all users, due to the familiarity of the platform. In addition, Windows
POS technology can seamlessly integrate into an existing network that is already Windows-
based. POS platforms available for Macintosh computers include Light Speed and Checkout.
Features:
POS machines offer the ability to automate many tasks that have historically required human
oversight. These machines can scan credit cards, authorize the charge, and even accept a digital
signature. POS machines can even synchronize with the local area network of the business, and
automatically update balances and inventory with each completed transaction.
Peripherals:
There are many peripheral devices that are needed to ensure that the POS machine can work with
the utmost efficiency. Price scanners connect to the POS machine, sometimes wirelessly, and are
used to read the barcode on an item. Keypads and touch-screen displays also connect to the POS
machine, allowing users to enter their personal identification numbers and signatures to access
funds.
Function:
The POS machine is used to improve the efficiency of retail transactions. A POS machine can be
automated, as in a self-service checkout lane in the grocery store, or it can merely augment the
actions of a checkout worker. The POS machine uses a price scanner to check the price of an
item, and a credit card reader, a check scanner, or a cash drawer to accept funds in an exchange.
HIGHLIGHTS:
All types of Visa & MasterCard based cards are accepted.
Can Extend American Express Card Acceptance.
Quick Merchant Payment.
Merchant Helpdesk and Onsite Support.
Competitive Commission Rates.
No hidden Charges.
POS machine costing to bank is Rs. 9,000

20
Charges:

done during the month and if the card swiped in POS machine is other than J&K Bank then the
rate of commission charged by bank is 1.5% of the total transaction.
Bank also has provided with the cash back facility to the merchants. In case of on-us cards if the
total sales is more than Rs.1, 00,000 then the bank will redeem 0.2% to their merchants so the
merchant have to pay 1.1% instead of 1.3% and in case of off us cards if the total sales is more than Rs. 2, 00,000 then the merchant have to pay 1.3% instead of 1.5% of the total sales.

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
The primary objective of our study is to analyze Availability and Visibility of the Financial
Service Products (FSPs) of the J&K Bank in attaining that whether peoples are aware about
J&K Bank products or not.
The main objectives are:
Availability and Visibility of the Financial Service Products (FSPs) of the J&K Bank
To find out the factors which are responsible for unawareness or rejections about J&K
Products
To check the satisfaction level of the preferred and classic customers regarding
Financial Product Services (FSPs)
To analyze customers expectations from Bank.
RESEARCH METHODOLGY:
Primary Objective:
To finding out the Availability and Visibility of the Financial Product Services (FSPs) of J&K
Bank. This was done by interacting with people through the medium of Questionnaires and
Direct interviews being taken in some cases. The satisfaction greatly depends on the quality of
service, the interests being provided on various banking facilities and the payback period for
taking any sort of loan. One of the important factors affecting customer expectations is the
presence of on-line banking facility being incorporated by the bank in its very basic functioning
infrastructure.
The project helped in developing an insight about the Actual level of satisfaction and the
Expected level of satisfaction. The various grievances that came forwarded during the survey and
the various things which the customers wanted the bank to incorporate in its structure is attached
in the report afterwards in the form of Recommendations. Through the project, the competitive
strategies being followed by other banks were also analyzed.
36
Sampling Technique:
The problem definition can be said to be the quite essential part of the research process; as it
determines precisely, what the managerial problem is and the type of information that the
research can generate to help the problem before conducting the field work. It is better to decide
upon the method/technique of data collection. Generally, there are two techniques of data
collection:
1. Census technique
2. Sample technique or convenient sampling
A census is a complete enumeration of each and every unit of population where as in a sample
only a part of the universe is studied and conclusion about the entire universe is drawn about that
basis. The census method is costlier and more time consuming as com-pared to sampling method
but the result are near representatives than sample method.
The availability of resources, time factor degree of accuracy desire and scope of the problem
enable us to apply sample technique.
DATA COLLECTION
The objectives of the project are such that both the primary and secondary data is required to
achieve them. So both primary and secondary data was used for the project. The mode of
collecting primary data is questionnaire mode and sources of secondary data are various
magazines, books, newspapers & websites etc.
1. Primary Data:
The primary data was collected to measure the customer satisfaction regarding J&K bank. The
primary data was collected by means of direct personal interview method through structured
37
questionnaire and analysis was done on the basis of response received from the customers. The
questionnaire has been designed in such a manner that the customers satisfaction level can be
measured and consumer can enter his response easily
2. Secondary Data:
The purpose of collecting secondary data was to achieve the objective of studying the recent
trends and development taking place in financial Service Departments.
Sampling Design:
It is very difficult to collect information from every member of a population. As time and costs
are the major limitations that the researcher faces.
Definition of Population:
Our population consisted of the preferred and classic customers of the J&K Bank. The reason for
choosing the classic and preferred customers as our population was that the FSPs services are
not only meant for such classes only and hence the normal customers were also considered.
Sampling Method:
Our sample consisted of 100 personal interviews. We structured our personal interviews on the
basis of a sample random sample.
Sample size:
Because of the various constraints imposed on our project work, especially time and cost, our
sample size was limited to 100. This also enabled us to obtain an equal number of respondents in
each stratum
Sampling plan:
The research was conducted mainly at the branch and further we met certain customers
personally at their offices after getting the proper references.
38
Questionnaire design:
We designed our questionnaire based on the information acquired from our background research.
We also used our own personal judgment when determining which type of questions might be
the most applicable to the information we were trying to obtain. The questionnaire consisted of
21 questions with options against each and one open ended question; at the end, for suggestion.
In designing the format of our questionnaires, we used the standard procedure to formulate a
questionnaire.
Collection procedure: Personal interviews were conducted using individual questionnaire for each
respondent. The responses were recorded directly onto each questionnaire.
Tools of analysis:
After collecting the data has been analyzed through various statistical tools and techniques. The
unwisely data should necessarily be condensed into few manageable groups and tables for
further analysis. Thus it helps to classify the raw data into some purposeful and usable
categories. The tools used are tables and pie charts.
Limitations of the Study
It is said, Nothing is perfect and there would be few shortcomings in this project also.
Sincere efforts have been made to eliminate discrepancies as far as possible but few would
have remained due to limitations of the study.
Time seemed to be our most limited resource. To conduct a comprehensive research project in
a two month period is difficult.
The absence of appropriate funding limited the extent of our study. With addition-al financial
resources, the scope of our study could have been enlarged, resulting in a more representative
study.
39
Interviewer bias could not be avoided as in case of many surveys open ended questions
involve the use of probing techniques that increase interviewer bias. However, as our study
did not use many open ended questions, the extent of the bias was reduced.
Some of the respondents gave ambiguous replies for certain questions or omit-ed the
responses to some of them. The interpretation of such responses become-s difficult and could
generate wrong result

RECOMMENDATIONS
The J&K bank should appoint direct selling agents which has almost become a necessity
in modernized banking culture to attract new consumers.
J&K bank should device some aggressive marketing strategies to expand its market, for
example making association with some great cause or endorsing some celebrity to
advertise its various financial services. It can be that Jk bank should use a local
personality to advertise its products that seems more appealing to the local people.
The financial services like credit cards should be advertise in the various branches of the
bank & the customers should be made aware of the services via sms and e-mail.
The process cycle should take less time to response in providing Financial Services to the
customers so as to increase the customer satisfaction.
The JK bank generally pays less heed in providing financial services products to the new
customers, where as the competitors like ICICI,AXIS & HDFC bank are .This is an
avenue which JK bank should walk.
The loyal merchants should be given some more discounts that they would not switch to
other vendors. It can be like that the merchants location a small card should be kept
depicted about the attractive schemes of the banks & the benefits of using FSPs.
