    23. COMPANY PROFLEMoneylenders have been part of Indian society since ancient times.Modern banking in India begansome 200 years ago. First Bank in India was established underthe name and style of bank ofCalcutta in 1806(a presidency Bank).In 1840 Bombay presidency

    Bank and in 1843 Madraspresidency Bank came into existence. In 1921, these three presidency

    Banks were merged asimperial Bank of India. In 1955, imperial Bank was renamed as State Bank

    of India.Aimed this scenario, entire banking in the State of Jammu and Kashmir was performed

    bytraditional moneylenders and that too at exorbitant interest rates. At the same time some

    banks likePunjab National Bank, Grindalays Bank and imperial Bank of India functioned in the

    State to alimited extent. The role of these banks was reduced to the people of the State owing

    to thestatutory limitations. Under this Scenario banks could not ameliorate the financial social

    positionof the people of the State.To overcome this crisis, the then Maharaja of the State, His

    Highness Maharaja Hari Singh,conceived the idea to establish a bank to help people of the State

    to come out of the economicbackwardness. The scheme of forming the bank was formulated by

    an eminent banker sir SorabjiN.Pochkanwala, the then Managing Director of Central Bank of

    India. The outcome of the effortsof Sir Sorabji resulted in the establishment of the Jammu &

    Kashmir Bank Limited on October 1,1938.And the Bank formally commenced its business on July

    4, 1939.The bank opened its first

    24. branch at Residency Road, Srinagar. Encouraged by the support of public, it opened itsanotherbranch at Jammu. By 1946, the number of branches of the bank went up to 12.Precisely,

    banking in the State of Jammu & Kashmir actually began in 1939, when Jammu &Kashmir Bank

    started its operation. Since then, with the continuous changes taking place in thefinancial

    services scenario, the banking in Jammu & Kashmir went under tremendous. Besidesexhibiting

    its commercial character, the bank has been meeting the social obligation of the peopleof the

    State too.The Jammu & Kashmir Bank is the first of its nature and composition as a State owned

    bank in thecountry. The State government besides contributing half of the issued capital also

    appointed thebank as bankers for general banking and treasury business of the State

    government. In itsformative years, the bank had to coup up several serious problems,

    particularly around the time ofindependence, when two of its branches at Muzaffarabad and

    Mirpur fell to the other side in1947.However, the State government came with assistance of Rs

    6.00 lacto meet the claims.Following the extension of Central laws to the State of Jammu &

    Kashmir, the Bank was definedas a government companies Act 1956.The real growth of its

    operations and business started after 1969, the area of nationalization ofmajor banks, when the

    union government announced control on banking. It began to emerge fromits regional shell,

    opening branches beyond the State boundaries and emerged as a leading bank. In

    25. 1971, the bank was included in the second schedule of the RBI Act 1934.It had its first fulltimechairman following social control measures in banks in the country. Five years later (in

    1976) itwas declared an AClass bank. By the end of 1980, its branches numbered 212 with

    aggregatedeposits of Rs. 191.67 corer and advance of Rs. 61.67crores.The bank became pioneer

    in the finance of road transport, horticulture and hostels to promotetourism and extendedfinance to the artisans to promote traditional handicrafts. In fact the bankwas the first

    commercial Indian bank to introduce schemes for financing fruit crops on standingtrees in the

    State of Jammu & Kashmir, a policy that was subsequently emulated by other bankselsewhere in

    the country.The bank expanded its area of operation and widened its credit base by financing

    schemes likeintegrated Rural Development Programmers (IRDP), SEEDY, PMRY, NRY and other

    self-employed programmers sponsored by the State and Central Governments. In 1976, Bank

    becamethe first and the only bank, which was permitted by the Reserve Bank of India to sponsor

    tworegional banks, namely, Kamraz Rural Bank and Jammu Rural bank. The bank has also

    beenentrusted with lead bank responsibility in eight of the fourteen districts and governorship

    of theState Level Bankers committee in J&K State.The bank has played a key role in the

    economic development of the State in particular and thecountry in general. In the last tenturbulent years, it was the only commercial bank to sustaineconomic and business activity as

    most of the nationalized banks in the State downed their

    26. shutters. During this difficult period, it was the J&K Bank alone that supported various aimedatalleviating poverty and generating self-employment opportunities.With a substantial increase

    in its capital base, the bank is participating more extensively infinancing of infrastructure

    projects. A number of leading corporate and blue chip companies aswell as prominent public

    sector undertakings of the Indian government have become part of itsclientele. The financial of

    the bank are very strong. The banks debt instruments have been highlyrated by CRISIL (Credit

    Rating Information Service of India Limited), which has reaffirmed itsP1+rating of the banks

    certificate of deposits, including strong degree of safety with regards totimely payments. The

    bank is governed by the companies act and banking regulation act of India.It is regulated by the

    Reserve Bank of India and Security and Exchange Board Of India (SEBI).Atthe end of May

    2006,the bank had 517 branches spread from Kashmir to Kanyakumari with 98%ofits business

    computerized. The bank has been playing a vital role in the development of theeconomy of the

    state and bolstering industry, trade, commerce and agriculture in the state. Thebank has put a

    commendable performance in all aspects of banking .The performance of J&KBank, its growth,

    profitability, diversification of product portfolio, modernization of its operationsand its

    51. BANKER AND CUSTOMERIt is not easy to define bankers. However an attempt has beenmade by various people in order toformulate the definition of terms Bankers andCustomer.The essential business of banker is to buy money and debt, by creating

    other.debts.A banker istherefore essentially dealer in debts or credits.A banker or a bank is a

    person or company carrying on the business of receiving money andcollecting drafts, for

    customer.No one can be a banker who does not take deposit accounts, take current accounts,

    issue and paycheques, crossed and uncrossed, or his customer.A customer is a person who

    has some sort of an account, either deposits or current accounts orsome similar relations with

    the banker. It implies that any person corporate body will become byopening a deposit or

    current account s, or by negotiating an advance on current or loan account.

    52. The word customer signifies a relationship in which duration is not of essence. A personwho hasbeen accepted by the bank on the footing that they undertake to honors Cheques up to

    the amountstanding to his connection is of long or short standing. The contrast is not between a

    person ahabitual and a new comer but between a persons for whom the bank performs a casual

    service e.g.cashing a cheque, for a person whom the bank performs a casual service e.g. cashing

    a Cheque, fora person introduced by one of their customer, and a person who has account of his

    own at thebankTo sum up, the mere opening of an account will constitute a person, a customer

    of a bank,irrespective of whether his connection is of long or short standing.

    53. RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN A BANKER AND A CUSTOMERThe relation of a banker and acustomer begins as soon as the first cheque paid and accepted forcollection. It is necessary that

  • 8/13/2019 Nadeem Oh No

    9/14

    the person should have drawn any money or even that he should bein a position to draw any

    money.The true relationship between a banker and his customer is that of debtor and a

    creditor.Money when paid in the bank ceases altogether to be the money of the principal, it is

    then themoney of the banker who is bound to return an equivalent by paying a similar sum to

    thatdeposited with him, when he is asked for it. The money paid to the bankers is money known

    by thebanker, it is then bankers money, he is known to deal with it at its own, he makes what

    profit hecan, that profit he retains for himself, paying back only the principal, according to the

    customer ofbanker in other placesthat being established to be relative situation and a

    customer, the bankeris not an agent or factor, but he is a debtor.

    54. CHEQUESAccording to the section 6 of the Indian Negotiable Instrument Act-881. A bill is abill ofexchange drawn from on a specified banker and not expressed to be payable otherwise

    than ondemand. According to section 5 of the Act. A bill of exchange is an instrument in

    writingcontaining an unconditional order, signed by the maker directing certain to pay sum of

    money,only to, or to the order of, a certain person or to the bearer of the instrument. From the

    abovedefinition it follows that an instrument to be called a Cheque must fulfill certain

    conditions. Theyare: 1. The instrument must be in writing. Legally speaking the writing may be

    done by a pen or a pencil, unless confirmed by the drawer. This is easy to make authorized

    alternation when a Cheque in pencil. 2. The instrument must contain an un-conditional order.For instance, if the banker is ordered to pay a certain sum provided the payee fulfill certain

    conditions, it cannot be considered a Cheque as the order is a condition one .However, if such

    instructions are addressed to the payee and not to the banker, the order to pay may be

    regarded unconditional.

    55. 3. The maker must sign the instrument. In order to be a valid Cheque, the instrument mustcontain the signature of the drawer. In the case of an illiterate person, his thumb impression will

    suffice. Though legally permissible, pencil signatures are discouraged by bankers. So also

    signatures impressed on the Cheque by means of a rubber stamp is not permitted generally.4.

    The order to pay must be addressed to a banker, and that banker must be a specified one. In

    other words, the instruments should not be drawn on a banker but a banker on a specified

    banker.5. The order must be for a certain sum of money only. The term money means legaltender currency. Thus if the order is for something other than legal currency, the instrument

    cannot be considered a Cheque. Further the sum of money must be considered as certain.

    56. LOANS AND ADVANCESAdvance, apart from contributing to main share of banks profiles,enable trade, commerce,industry and agriculture to meet their short coming requirements for

    funds. Banks, financeindustries to meet their day to day requirements for funds. Banks, finance

    industries to meet theirfixed assets.Similarly banks grant advances to farmers for raising crops,

    for purchasing implement, tractors,seeds and pesticides and for irrigational facilities etc.During

    the last few years, the part played by banks in granting advances has undergone a

    markedchange. The scheme of social control introduced in 1967 by the Govt. of India laud

    emphasis ondiversification of advances portfolios in favor of priority sector such as exports

    agriculture, andsmall scale industries. This change has been adopted by fourteen major banks in

    1969 the advancegranted by commercial banks are expected to develop all sectors of national

    economy.

    57. Policy Document on Grievance RedressalIn the present scenario of competitive banking,excellence in customer service is the mostimportant tool for sustained business growth.

    were complaining about services were not ready to give their identity. 3. Operational on part of

    sample units to respond properly to all the question of questionnaire. 4. Reluctance on part of

    sample units to respond properly to all the question of questionnaire. 5. Respondents were

    giving answer to the questions that were written on the questionnaire, but efforts were made to

    get more and more information about bank service from them.

    76. ConclusionsIt is good to see that the J&K Bank has introduce giving all its major service tothe customer andhas captured a marked share of around 93% in the town which is very high in

    spite of its toughcompetitors like SBI, State cooperative Bank etc. The J&K Bank has succeeded

    in satisfying itsmajority of customers, however there are some areas of Improvement, but the

    staff is trying all thecustomers.The J&K Bank should introduce a grievance cell for the redressal

    of customers complaints andstaff should be customer friendly. The J&K Bank should use a

    promotional mix prepared andpresented. There should be no delay in service and withdrawal of

    money should be available till4pm.

    77. WeaknessesThe finding of this study reveals the following weaknesses of Jammu & KashmirBank. 1. Delay in servicing. 2. Sometimes loans were not given to suitable and eligible persons.

    3. When an illiterate customer comes to bank. The banker doesnt pay any attention towards

    him. He is not said what he has to do, and how he can get the cheque cashed & how he has to

    deposit his deposits. 4. Some influential persons while coming to the bank to get their cheques

    cashed or to deposit some money in the bank dont remain in queue but instead go directly in

    the concerned officers.

    78. SuggestionsIn the light of the findings of the study the following are made for improvementof the customerservice in J&K Bank. 1. Staff of the bank should be customer friendly. Moreover

    there should be a grievance cell at bank for the redressal of customer complains. 2. Staff should

    be increased at most of the branches. 3. There should be more number of receipt and payment

    counter so that the customers need not to wait for long time. 4 There should be no delay in

    servicing. 5 Money should be available after 4pm as well on working days. 6 Loans should be

    given after proper verification. 7 Promotional mix i.e. the best combination of advertising,

    personal selling, sales Promotion, electronic as well as print media should be prepared and

    presented to sell the different services at very important branch.
