Issue of Cheque Books: The Committee has observed that some banks do not
allow depositors to collect their cheque book at the branch but insist on
dispatching the cheque book by courier to the depositor. Further, it is stated by
the Committee that the depositor is forced to sign a declaration that a despatch
by the courier is at the depositor's risk and consequence and that the depositor
shall not hold the bank liable in any manner whatsoever in respect of such
despatch of cheque book. Committee has observed this as an unfair practice
and advised banks to refrain from obtaining such undertakings from
depositors. Banks should also ensure that cheque books are delivered over the
counters on request to the depositors or his authorized representative.
Statement of Accounts / Pass Books: The Committee has noted that banks
invariably show the entries in depositor’s passbooks / statement of accounts as
"By Clearing" or "By Cheque". Further, in the case of Electronic Clearing System
(ECS) and RBI Electronic Funds Transfer (RBIEFTR) banks invariably do not
provide any details even though brief particulars of the remittance are provided
to the receiving bank. In some cases computerized entries use sophisticated
codes which just cannot be deciphered. With a view to avoiding inconvenience
to depositors, banks are advised to avoid such inscrutable entries in passbooks
statements of account and ensure that brief, intelligible particulars are
invariably entered in passbooks / statements of account. Banks may also ensure
that they adhere to the monthly periodicity prescribed by us while sending
statement of accounts.

valued at par. They are effectively transferable by mere delivery, in the case of
banknotes, or by drawing a cheque that the payee may bank or cash.
2. Netting and settlement of payments – banks act as both collection and
paying agents for customers, participating in interbank clearing and settlement
systems to collect, present, be presented with, and pay payment instruments.
This enables banks to economies on reserves held for settlement of payments,
since inward and outward payments offset each other. It also enables the
offsetting of payment flows between geographical areas, reducing the cost of
settlement between them.

more ATMs than branches, and ATMs are providing a wider range of
services to a wider range of users. For example in Hong Kong, most ATMs
enable anyone to deposit cash to any customer of the bank's account by
feeding in the notes and entering the account number to be credited. Also,
most ATMs enable card holders from other banks to get their account
balance and withdraw cash, even if the card is issued by a foreign bank.
Mail is part of the postal system which itself is a system wherein written
documents typically enclosed in envelopes, and also small packages
containing other matter, are delivered to destinations around the world.
This can be used to deposit cheques and to send orders to the bank to pay
money to third parties. Banks also normally use mail to deliver periodic
account statements to customers.

6.1 CONCLUSION
My experience with Axis Bank Ltd. is outstanding. While working in Axis Bank I
found that this bank has developed manifold in short period of time due to
facilities and services provided to their customer and this growth rate can be keep
it up if they start to go in semi-urban areas. In last couple of years they have
opened new many branches and they should open many more. The working staff
are very co-operative in nature and due to that the bank will also get good benefit.
Axis Bank has provided their customer Net-banking facilities and due to that
transactions are done fast. Charges at Axis Bank are on lower side when we
compare it with other Banks.

Axis Bank, initially known as UTI Bank, underwent significant transformations to establish itself in the Indian financial sector. Starting as a private sector bank promoted by Unit Trust of India along with LIC, GIC, and its subsidiaries, it had a robust capital foundation. By 1998, it had expanded to 28 fully computerized branches networked through VSAT, facilitating seamless banking operations. The bank consistently launched innovative products like the co-branded credit card with Citibank in 1999 and ventured into internet banking with 'iConnect' in 2000 . By instituting initiatives like Tele-Depository Services and entering e-broking via agreements with firms like equitymaster.com and Geojit Securities, Axis Bank broadened its service offerings and operational reach considerably . The opening of numerous ATMs across strategic locations and partnerships for new products like the Visa Electron Travel Currency Card in 2003, further diversified its portfolio . These strategic initiatives and expansions facilitated the rebranding and positioned Axis Bank as a significant financial entity in the sector by 2006 .
Product innovations like the Visa Electron Travel Currency Card and Tele-Depository Services were pivotal in bolstering Axis Bank's market positioning. The Visa Electron Travel Currency Card launched in 2003 provided a practical solution for international travelers, enhancing Axis Bank's appeal in a globalized economy by offering a flexible and secure payment method outside India . Meanwhile, the Tele-Depository Services introduced in 2000 facilitated seamless management of depository accounts, showcasing Axis Bank's commitment to using technology for improved customer service . These innovations not only differentiated Axis Bank from competitors by providing unique value propositions but also reinforced its reputation as a forward-thinking bank, enhancing customer acquisition and loyalty amid evolving banking needs .
Axis Bank's geographical expansion via ATMs and branches helped significantly enhance its service delivery and brand presence, particularly in urban and semi-urban areas. By 1998, the bank had established 28 branches and connected them via VSAT, with ATM services available at 27 branches . This extensive reach facilitated customer convenience, empowering them with easy access to banking services across the network. The introduction of off-site ATMs further broadened its accessibility, reinforcing its brand visibility . These expansions were strategically aligned with customer needs, enabling Axis Bank to deliver consistent service quality and build a strong brand identity in a rapidly growing market, laying a solid foundation for future growth initiatives .
Collaborations were central to Axis Bank's strategy to diversify its product offerings and enhance market reach. The partnership with Citibank for an international co-branded credit card in 1999 opened up a gateway for Axis Bank to access global credit card markets and enhance customer offerings with MasterCard's acceptance . Agreements with firms like equitymaster.com and Geojit Securities facilitated Axis Bank's foray into internet banking and e-broking, allowing efficient cross-selling of financial products to tech-savvy investors . The tie-up with Bajaj Allianz for bancassurance services in 2005 capitalized on the growing insurance sector, integrating insurance products into Axis Bank’s suite, thus appealing to broader customer segments and deepening relationships through comprehensive banking solutions . These strategic partnerships fundamentally expanded the bank's service scope and competitive advantage over the analyzed period.
Listing equity shares to the public in 1998 was a pivotal step for Axis Bank, enabling capital infusion critical for its expansion and technological advancements. By aggregating Rs 31.50 crores through the issue, Axis Bank fortified its financial base, which was crucial for funding branch expansion and upgrading technology infrastructure . Public listing also enhanced the bank's credibility, increasing transparency and investor trust, which are essential for clientele expansion in a competitive sector. This strategic move provided Axis Bank with necessary liquidity and market visibility, empowering it to launch new financial products and enter collaborations like the 1999 credit card venture with Citibank, thereby spearheading its growth trajectory in the banking landscape .
Axis Bank's decision to enter the credit card market with Citibank in 1999 was driven by strategic motives to leverage a mutually beneficial partnership. Citibank, as a market leader, provided Axis Bank access to extensive operational expertise and a robust customer base under the globally recognized MasterCard umbrella, increasing brand visibility and customer trust . This collaboration enabled Axis Bank to swiftly penetrate a highly competitive credit card market and offer superior, internationally accepted products. The alliance potentially reduced the risk and investment costs associated with developing a comprehensive credit card program independently, allowing Axis Bank to focus on expanding its brand while benefiting from Citibank's established market position and customer-centric innovations .
The expansion of Axis Bank's ATM network crucially reinforced its competitive positioning by enhancing customer convenience and operational efficiency, marking it as a service-oriented institution. The installation of ATMs in strategic locations, including railway stations and off-site locations, significantly broadened its service accessibility beyond branch confines, allowing customers greater flexibility and accessibility to banking services . This seamless access to financial services provided a competitive edge over banks with limited ATM networks, fostering stronger customer loyalty and expanding market reach. Additionally, the ability to cater to growing customer demand for ATM accessibility solidified Axis Bank’s brand as a tech-savvy and customer-centric entity, enhancing its standing in the financial services sector .
Axis Bank's strategic emphasis on technology integration stemmed from the need to enhance operational efficiency, improve customer service, and achieve competitive advantage in the private banking sector. By fully computerizing its branches and networking them through VSAT by 1998, Axis Bank ensured real-time data access and transaction processing speed, significantly improving customer service . The introduction of ATM services and internet banking through 'iConnect' by 2000 positioned the bank as a tech-savvy financial institution, appealing to a growing segment of technology-friendly customers . These technological advancements allowed Axis Bank to cater to urban and semi-urban markets, achieve efficient scalability across regions, and reduce operational costs, effectively differentiating itself from traditional banks that were slower in tech adoption .
Post-2002 UTI bifurcation, Axis Bank underwent organizational changes to realign with its strategic direction focused on independence and diversification. The bifurcation resulted in UTI's division into two entities, prompting changes in governance structures and leadership to support new strategic goals focusing on non-traditional banking services . Appointment of additional directors like Ajeet Prasad and industry experts such as Prof. Jayanth Varma and A T Pannir Selvam provided diversified strategic oversight, ensuring alignment with growth-focused objectives while strengthening governance . These organizational adaptations allowed Axis Bank to leverage new market opportunities, streamline operations, and reinforce its positioning amid a dynamic financial landscape, distinct from the traditional UTI umbrella .
Axis Bank's Employee Stock Option Scheme (ESOP), as highlighted by the allotment of shares in 2003, was a strategic initiative aimed at fostering workforce engagement and motivation. ESOPs effectively aligned the employees’ interests with the bank’s performance, offering them potential financial benefits through stock ownership based on the bank’s success . Such initiatives incentivize performance, enhance employee identification with organizational goals, and reduce turnover by providing a stake in the bank's prosperity. This not only helps motivate employees but also attracts and retains top talent by offering competitive, value-driven compensation packages, vital for sustained business growth and innovation .
