features and 22% is being spent on new technology that will change business process. According
to the report, the core issues being faced by the banking sector are identifying and retaining good
clients, managing customer services expectations, optimizing operational costs and beating
competition. The PwC report suggests that banks should take up automation that will have a
combination of centralized networks, operations and a core banking application and will enable
banks to offer 24X7 services using lesser manpower. Moreover, the banks need to look at
business intelligence (BI), business process re-engineering and customer relationship
management (CRM) that caters to operational and analytical businesses.
N Chandrashekaran, chairman, CII BANKing Tech Summit 2009 and COO & ED at Tata
Consultancy Services, said, It is important for the banks to adapt new technologies that can
brings down the cost of transactions and at the same time bring business continuity .
In the world of banking and finance nothing stands still. Apart from traditional business, banks
now a days provide a wide range of services to satisfy the financial and non financial needs of all
types of customers from the smallest account holder to the largest company and in some cases of
non customers.
RESERVE BANK'S EARLY INITIATIVES
As a central bank in a developing country, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has adopted
development of the banking and financial market as one of its prime objectives. "Institutional
development" was the hallmark of this approach from 1950s to 1970s. In the 1980s, the Reserve
technology is the key for improving in productivity, the Reserve Bank took several initiatives to
popularize usage of technology by banks in India.
Periodically, almost once in five years since the early 1980s, the Reserve Bank appointed
committees and working Groups to deliberate on and recommend the appropriate use of
technology by banks give the circumstances and the need. These committees are as follows:
-Rangarajan committee -1 in early 1980s.

operations of the banks predominated the scene. It was in the form of accounting of transactions
and collection of MIS. In the inter-bank payment systems
Two momentous decisions of the Reserve Bank in the 1990s changed the scenario for ever there
are:
a) The prescription of compulsory usage of technology in full measure by the new private sector
banks as a precondition of the license and
b) The establishment of an exclusive research institute for banking technology institute for
development and Research in Banking Technology.
As the new private sector banks came on the scene as technology-savvy banks and offered
several innovative products at the front office for the customers based on technology, the
demonstration effect caught on the reset of the banks. Multi channel offerings like machine
based (ATMs and pc-Banking), card based (credit/Debit/Smart cards), Communication based
in India. The IDRBT has been instrumental in establishing a safe and secure, state of the art
communication backbone in the form of the Indian Financial NETwork (INFINET) as a closed
user group exclusively for the banking and financial sector in India.
CHANGING FACE OF BANKING SERVICES
Liberalization brought several changes to Indian service industry. Probably Indian banking
industry learnt a tremendous lesson. Pre-liberalization, all we did at a bank was deposit and
withdraw money. Service standards were pathetic, but all we could do was grin and bear it. Post-

liberalization, the tables have turned. It's a consumer oriented market there.
Technology is revolutionizing every field of human endeavor and activity. One of them is
introduction of information technology into capital market. The internet banking is changing the
banking industry and is having the major effects on banking relationship. Web is more important
for retail financial services than for many other industries.
Retail banking in India is maturing with time, several products, which further could be
customized. Interest rates are coming down and market has seen some innovative products as
well. Other retail banking products are personal loan, education loan and vehicles loan.
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Ballabh (2001) analyzed challenges in the post-banking sector reforms. With globalization and
changes in technology, financial markets, world over, have become closely integrated. For the
survival of the banks, they should adopt new policies/strategies according to the changing
environment.
Kumar (2006) studied the bank nationalization in India marked a paradigm shift in the focus of
banking as it was intended to shift the focus from class banking to mass banking. Internationally
also efforts are being made to study causes of financial inclusion and designing strategies to
ensure financial inclusion of the poor disadvantaged. The banks also need to redesign their
business strategies to incorporate specific plans to promote financial inclusion of low income
group treating it both a business opportunity as well as a corporate social responsibilities.
Financial inclusion can emerge as commercial profitable business.
shift in scope, content, structure, functions and governance. The information and communication
technology revolution is radically and perceptibly changing the operational environment of the
banks.
Madhavankutty (2007) concludes the banking system in India has attained enough maturity and
is ready to address prudential management practices as comprehensively as possible, which an
integral part of policy is making. Banking in India is poised to enter yet another phase of reforms
once the door opens further to foreign players in 2009. This requires further improvement in
technology management, human resource management and the ability to foresee rapid changes in

Laxman, Deen and Badiger (2008) examined that banking industry is undergoing a paradigm

the financial landscape and adopt quickly. At present, there is a huge hiatus between the top
management earnings of state owned banks and private, as well as foreign banks. Banks have to
lay down sound risk management strategies and internal capital adequacy assessment committees
to ensure that they do not diverge from the prudential requirements.
Nair (2006) discusses the future challenges of technology in banking. The author also point out
how IT posses a bright future in rural banking, but is neglected as it is traditionally considered
unviable in the rural segment. A successful bank has to be nimble and agile enough to respond to
the new market paradigm and ineffectively controlling risks. Innovation will be the key
extending the banking services to the untapped vast potential at the bottom of the pyramid.
Singh (2003) analyzed profitability management of banks under the deregulated environment
with some financial parameters of the major four bank groups i.e. public sector banks, old private
sector banks, new private sector banks and foreign banks, profitability has declined in the
deregulated environment. He emphasized to make the banking sector competitive in the
deregulated environment. They should prefer non-interest income sources.
Singla (2008) examines that how financial management plays a crucial role industrialists growth
of banking. It is concerned with examining the profitability position of the selected sixteen banks
of banker index for a period of six years (2001-06). The study reveals that the profitability
position was reasonable during the period of study when compared with the previous years.
Strong capital position and balance sheet place. Banks in better position to deal with and absorb
the economic constant over a period of time.
Shroff (2007) gives a summary of how Indian banking system has evolved over the year. The
paper discusses some issues face by these systems. The author also gives examples of
system.
Subbaroo (2007) concludes the Indian banking system has undergone transformation itself from
domestic banking to international banking. However, the system requires a combination of new
technologies, well regulated risk and credit appraisal, treasury management, product
diversification, internal control, external regulations and professional as well as skilled human
resource to achieve the heights of the international excellence to play its role critically in meeting
the global challenge.

Uppal and Kaur (2007) analysis the efficiency of all the bank groups in the post banking sector
reforms era. Time period of study is related to second post banking sector reforms (1999-2000 to
2004-05). The paper concludes that the efficiency of all the bank groups has increased in the
second post banking sector reforms period but these banking sector reforms are more beneficial
for new private sector banks and foreign banks.
DATA ANALYSIS
The Improved Technology and the huge Investment in Technology leads the Indian Banking
Industry to the new highs but on the other hand cut throat competition forces it to strike
balance between the Expenditures and the Income .So here we are having some important
indicators of profitability by which we will analyze how far the Indian Banking Sector is able to
manage it and whats the picture if we compare the public and Private sector banks on the basis
of management of their Profitability.

There is a decline in Interest expanded in case of Public sector banks and on the other hand there is
huge jump in the case of private sector banks in the same item.
CONCLUSION
The Indian Banking Industry in Technological advancement is still in gestation phase .However the
Private Sector banks Outperform the Public Sector Banks in some fields . Nationalized banks are
performing well as indicated by the various positive figures in case of Net Profit ,Profit Per Employee
and Business Per Employee .But still RBI has to take various steps so that the Public Sector Banks
(Nationalized and SBI &its Associates ) becomes able to manage their profitability by striking the
balance between technological Investments(Expenditures )and Incomes.
