CHAPTER 1
BANKING SECTOR
(A)Introduction
(a)Meaning and definition
Bank is an institution that deals in money and its substitutes and provides
crucial financial services. The principal types of banking in the modern
industrial world are commercial banking & central banking.
Banking Means “Accepting Deposits for the purpose of lending or
Investment of deposits of money from the public, repayable on demand or
otherwise and withdraw by cheque, draft or otherwise” (Banking
Companies (Regulation) Act, 1949).
The concise oxford dictionary has defined a bank as “Establishment for
custody of money which it pays out on customers order." In fact this is the
function which the bank performed when banking originated.
"By banking in the most general sense, is meant the business of receiving,
conserving & utilizing the funds of community or of any special section of
it."
--- By H. Wills & J. Bogan
"A banker of bank is a person, a firm, or a company having a place of
business where credits are opened by deposits or collection of money or
currency or where money is advanced and waned.
--- By Findlay Sheras.

(B) Types of banks
Type 1. Saving Banks
Saving banks are established to create saving habit among the people. These banks are helpful
for salaried people and low income groups. The deposits collected from customers are invested
in bonds, securities, etc. At present most of the commercial banks carry the functions of savings
banks. Postal department also performs the functions of saving bank.
Type 2. Commercial Banks
Commercial banks are established with an objective to help businessmen. These banks collect
money from general public and give short-term loans to businessmen by way of cash credits,
overdrafts, etc. Commercial banks provide various services like collecting cheques, bill of
exchange, and remittance money from one place to another place.
In India, commercial banks are established under Companies Act, 1956. In 1969, 14 commercial
banks were nationalized by Government of India. The policies regarding deposits, loans, rate of
interest, etc. of these banks are controlled by the Central Bank.
Type 3. Industrial Banks / Development Banks
Industrial / Development banks collect cash by issuing shares & debentures and providing long-
term loans to industries. The main objective of these banks is to provide long-term loans for
expansion and modernization of industries.
In India such banks are established on a large scale after independence. They are Industrial
Finance Corporation of India (IFCI), Industrial Credit and Investment Corporation of India
(ICICI) and Industrial Development Bank of India (IDBI).
7
Type 4. Land Mortgage / Land Development Banks
Land Mortgage or Land Development banks are also known as Agricultural Banks because these
are formed to finance agricultural sector. They also help in land development.
In India, Government has come forward to assist these banks. The Government has guaranteed
the debentures issued by such banks. There is a great risk involved in the financing of agriculture
and generally commercial banks do not take much interest in financing agricultural sector.
Type 5. Indigenous Banks
Indigenous banks mean Money Lenders and Sahukars. They collect deposits from general public
and grant loans to the needy persons out of their own funds as well as from deposits. These
indigenous banks are popular in villages and small towns. They perform combined functions of
trading and banking activities. Certain well-known Indian communities like Marwari’s and
Multan even today run specialized indigenous banks.
Type 6. Central / Federal / National Bank
Every country of the world has a central bank. In India, Reserve Bank of India, in U.S.A, Federal
Reserve and in U.K, Bank of England. These central banks are the bankers of the other banks.
They provide specialized functions i.e. issue of paper currency, working as bankers of
government, supervising and controlling foreign exchange. A central bank is a non-profit making
institution. It does not deal with the public but it deals with other banks. The principal
responsibility of Central Bank is thorough control on currency of a country.
Type 7. Co-operative Banks
In India, Co-operative banks are registered under the Co-operative Societies Act, 1912. They
generally give credit facilities to small farmers, salaried employees, small-scale industries, etc.
Co-operative Banks are available in rural as well as in urban areas. The functions of these banks
are just similar to commercial banks.
8
Type 8. Exchange Banks
Hong Kong Bank, Bank of Tokyo, Bank of America are the examples of Foreign Banks working
in India. These banks are mainly concerned with financing foreign trade.
Following are the various functions of Exchange Banks:-
Remitting money from one country to another country,
Discounting of foreign bills,
Buying and Selling Gold and Silver, and
Helping Import and Export Trade.
Type 9. Consumers Banks
Consumers bank is a new addition to the existing type of banks. Such banks are usually found
only in advanced countries like U.S.A. and Germany. The main objective of this bank is to give
loans to consumers for purchase of the durables like Motor car, television set, washing machine,
furniture, etc. The consumers have to repay the loans in easy installments.

(D) The Banking Structure in India
10
The commercial banking structure in India consists of scheduled commercial banks and
unscheduled banks. Scheduled banks constitute those banks that are included in the Second
Schedule of Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Act, 1934.
As on June 30, 1999, there were 300 scheduled banks in India having a total network of 64,918
branches. The scheduled commercial banks in India comprise State Bank of India and its
associates (8), nationalized banks (19), foreign banks (45), private sector banks (32), co-
operative banks, and regional rural banks. Before the nationalization of Indian banks, the State
Bank of India (SBI) was the only nationalized bank, which was nationalized on July 1, 1955,
under the SBI Act of 1955. The nationalization of seven State Bank subsidiaries took place in
1959.
After the nationalization of banks in India, the branches of the public sector banks rose to
approximately 800 percent in deposits and advances took a huge jump by 11,000 percent.
Nationalization Process
1955: Nationalization of State Bank of India
1959: Nationalization of SBI subsidiaries
1969: Nationalization of 14 major banks
1980: Nationalization of seven banks with deposits over Rs 200 crore
Banks in India
In India, banks are segregated in different groups. Each group has its own benefits and
limitations in operations. Each has its own dedicated target market. A few of them work in the
rural sector only while others in both rural as well as urban. Many banks are catering in cities
only. Some banks are of Indian origin and some are foreign.
COOPERATIVE BANKING IN INDIA
11
(A) Introduction of co-operative banks
A co-operative bank is a financial entity which belongs to its members, who are
at the same time the owners and the customers of their bank. Co-operative banks are often
created by persons belonging to the same local or professional community or sharing a common
interest. Co-operative banks generally provide their members with a wide range of banking and
financial services (loans, deposits, banking accounts etc.). Co-operative banks differ from
stockholder banks by their organization, their goals, their values and their governance. In most
countries, they are supervised and controlled by banking authorities and have to respect
prudential banking regulations, which put them at a level playing field with stockholder
banks. Depending on countries, this control and supervision can be implemented directly by
state entities or delegated to a co-operative federation or central body.
Co-operative banking is retail and commercial banking organized on a co-operative basis. Co-
operative banking institutions take deposits and lend money in most parts of the world. Co-
operative banking, includes retail banking, as carried out by credit unions, mutual savings and
loan associations, building societies and co-operatives, as well as commercial banking services
provided by manual organizations (such as co-operative federations) to co-operative businesses.
The structure of commercial banking is of branch-banking type; while the co-operative banking
structure is a three tier federal one.
o A State Co-operative Bank works at the apex level (i.e. works at state level).
o The Central Co-operative Bank works at the Intermediate Level. (i.e. District Co-
operative Banks ltd. works at district level)
o Primary co-operative credit societies at base level (At village level)
Even if co-operative banks organizational rules can vary according to their respective national
legislations, co-operative banks share common features as follows:
Customer-owned entities: In a co-operative bank, the needs of the customers meet the needs of
the owners, as co-operative bank members are both. As a consequence, the first aim of a co-
operative bank is not to maximize profit but to provide the best possible products and services to
12
its members. Some co-operative banks only operate with their members but most of them also
admit non-member clients to benefit from their banking and financial services.
Democratic member control: Co-operative banks are owned and controlled by their members,
who democratically elect the board of directors. Members usually have equal voting rights,
according to the co-operative principle of “one person, one vote”.
Profit allocation: In a co-operative bank, a significant part of the yearly profit, benefits or surplus
is usually allocated to constitute reserves. A part of this profit can also be distributed to the
co-operative members, with legal or statutory limitations in most cases. Profit is usually
allocated to members either through a patronage dividend, which is related to the use of the co-
operatives products and services by each member, or through an interest or a dividend, which is
related to the number of shares subscribed by each member.
Co-operative banks are deeply rooted inside local areas and communities. They are involved in
local development and contribute to the sustainable development of their communities, as their
members and management board usually belong to the communities in which they
exercise their activities. By increasing banking access in areas or markets where other banks are
less present, farmers in rural areas, middle or low income households in urban areas - co-
operative banks reduce banking exclusion and foster the economic ability of millions of people.
They play an influential role on the economic growth in the countries in which they work in and
increase the efficiency of the international financial system. Their specific form of enterprise,
relying on the above-
mentioned principles of organization, has proven successful both in developed and
developing countries.
(B)History of Co-operative Banks in India
For the co-operative banks in India, co-operatives are organized groups of people and jointly
managed and democratically controlled enterprises. They exist to serve their members and
13
depositors and produce better benefits and services for them. Professionalism in co-operative
banks reflects the co-existence of high level of skills and standards in performing, duties
entrusted to an individual. Co-operative bank needs current and future development in
information technology. It is indeed necessary for co- operative banks to devote adequate
attention for maximizing their returns on every unit of resources through effective services. Co-
operative banks have completed 100 years of existence in India. They play a very important role
in the financial system. The co- operative banks in India form an integral part of our money
market today. Therefore, a brief resume of their development should be taken into account. The
history of co- operative banks goes back to the year 1904. In 1904, the co-operative credit
society act was enacted to encourage co-operative movement in India. But the development of
co- operative banks from 1904 to 1951 was the most disappointing one.
The first phase of co-operative bank development was the formation and regulation of co-
operative society. The constitutional reforms which led to the passing of the Government of India
Act in 1919 transferred the subject of “Cooperation” from Government of India to the Provincial
Governments. The Government of Bombay passed the first State Co- operative Societies Act
in 1925 “which not only gave the movement, its size and shape but was a pace setter of co-
operative activities and stressed the basic concept of thrift, self help and mutual aid.” This
marked the beginning of the second phase in the history of Co-operative Credit Institutions.
There was the general realization that urban banks have an important role to play in economic
construction. This was asserted by a host of committees. The Indian Central
Banking Enquiry Committee (1931) felt that urban banks have a duty to help the small business
and middle class people. The Mehta-Bhansali Committee (1939) recommended that those
societies which had fulfilled the criteria of banking should be allowed to work as banks and
recommended an Association for these banks. The Co-operative Planning Committee (1946)
went on record to say that urban banks have been the best agencies for small people in whom
Joint stock banks are not generally interested. The Rural Banking Enquiry Committee (1950),
impressed by the low cost of establishment and operations recommended the establishment of
such banks even in places smaller than taluka towns. The real development of co-operative banks
took place only after the recommendations of All India Rural Credit Survey Committee
(AIRCSC), which were made with the view to fasten the growth of co-operative banks.
14
The co-operative banks are expected to perform some duties, namely, extend all types of credit
facilities to customers in cash and kind, advance consumption loans, extend banking
facilities in rural areas, mobilize deposits, supervise the use of loans etc. The needs of co-
operative bank are different. They have faced a lot of problems, which has affected the
development of co-operative banks. Therefore it was necessary to study this matter.
The first study of Urban Co-operative Banks was taken up by RBI in the year 1958-59. The
Report published in 1961 acknowledged the widespread and financially sound framework
of urban co-operative banks; emphasized the need to establish primary urban co-operative banks
in new centers and suggested that State Governments lend active support to their development.
In 1963, Verde Committee recommended that such banks should be organized at all Urban
Centers with a population of 1 lakh or more and not by any single community or caste. The
committee introduced the concept of minimum capital requirement and the criteria of population
for defining the urban centre where UCBs were incorporated.
(C)Types of Co-operative Banks
The co-operative banks are small-sized units which operate both in urban and non-urban centers.
They finance small borrowers in industrial and trade sectors besides professional and salary
classes. Regulated by the Reserve Bank of India, they are governed by the Banking Regulations
Act 1949 and banking laws (co-operative societies) act, 1965. The co-operative banking structure
in India is divided into following 5 components:
1. Primary Co-operative Credit Society
The primary co-operative credit society is an association of borrowers and non-borrowers
residing in a particular locality. The funds of the society are derived from the share
capital and deposits of members and loans from central co-operative banks. The
borrowing powers of the members as well as of the society are fixed. The loans are given
to members for the purchase of cattle, fodder, fertilizers, pesticides, etc.
15
2. Central co-operative banks
These are the federations of primary credit societies in a district and are of two types-
those having a membership of primary societies only and those having a membership of
societies as well as individuals. The funds of the bank consist of share capital, deposits,
loans and overdrafts from state co-operative banks and joint stocks. These banks provide
finance to member societies within the limits of the borrowing capacity of societies. They
also conduct all the business of a joint stock bank.
3. State co-operative banks
The state co-operative bank is a federation of central co-operative bank and acts as a
watchdog of the co-operative banking structure in the state. Its funds are obtained from
share capital, deposits, loans and overdrafts from the Reserve Bank of India. The state co-
operative banks lend money to central co-operative banks and primary societies and not
directly to the farmers.
4. Land development banks
The Land development banks are organized in 3 tiers namely; state, central, and primary
level and they meet the long term credit requirements of the farmers for developmental
purposes. The state land development banks oversee, the primary land development
banks situated in the districts and tehsil areas in the state. They are governed both by the
state government and Reserve Bank of India. Recently, the supervision of land
development banks has been assumed by National Bank for Agriculture and Rural
development (NABARD). The sources of funds for these banks are the debentures
Subscribed by both central and state government. These banks do not accept deposits
from the general public.
5. Urban Co-operative Banks
The term Urban Co-operative Banks (UCBs), though not formally defined, refers to
primary co-operative banks located in urban and semi-urban areas. These banks, till 1996
were allowed to lend money only for non-agricultural purposes. This distinction does not
hold today. These banks were traditionally centered on communities, localities, work
place groups. They essentially lend to small borrowers and businesses. Today, their scope
of operations has widened considerably.
16
The origins of the urban co-operative banking movement in India can be traced to the
close of nineteenth century. Inspired by the success of the experiments related to the co-
operative movement in Britain and the co-operative credit movement in Germany, such
societies were set up in India. Co-operative societies are based on the principles of
cooperation, mutual help, democratic decision making, and open membership. Co-
operatives represented a new and alternative approach to organization as against
proprietary firms, partnership firms, and joint stock companies which represent the
dominant form of commercial organization. They mainly rely upon deposits from
members and non-members and in case of need, they get finance from either the district
central co-operative bank to which they are affiliated or from the apex co-operative bank
if they work in big cities where the apex bank has its Head Office. They provide credit to
small scale industrialists, salaried employees, and other urban and semi-urban residents.
(D)Functions of co-operative banks
Co-operative banks also perform the basic banking functions of banking but they differ from
commercial banks in the following respects
• Commercial banks are joint-stock companies under the companies’ act of 1956, or
public sector bank under a separate act of a parliament whereas co-operative
• Banks were established under the co-operative society’s acts of different states.
• Commercial bank structure is branch banking structure whereas co-operative
banks have a three tier setup, with state co-operative bank at apex level, central /
district co-operative bank at district level, and primary co-operative societies at rural
level.
• Only some of the sections of banking regulation act of 1949 (fully applicable to
commercial banks), are applicable to co-operative banks, resulting only in partial
control by RBI of co-operative banks and
• Co-operative banks function on the principle of cooperation and not entirely on
commercial parameters.

CHAPTER 2
The Kurukshetra Central Co-operative Bank
A. Introduction
The Kurukshetra Central Co-op. Bank Ltd., Kurukshetra came into existence on 1.4.1973
with the Primary objective of inculcating banking habits among the rural masses. The Bank has
its jurisdiction throughout the Kurukshetra District. At the time of registration, the bank had only
4 branches. Keeping in the view the persistence demand from the rural masses, the bank has been
opening new branches for the facility of its customers. The total branches as on date stands to 21
with 2 extension counters. Out of these 21 branches 16 branches are rural and 5 branches are
urban. But due to restricting of PACS the bank is going to open 23 branches at PACS level in
addition to previous 21 branches. The bank initially functioned for accepting deposits and
advancing loans to the agricultural sector. Today with the changing scenario, the bank has also
diversified its functions and has also entered into the Non-Farm Sector to compete with other
commercial banks. From the last more than 10 years, the bank has financing loans under
individual financing scheme for 22 broad categories specified by RBI/NABARD. Besides this,
18
for small road transport operator can also be advanced loans upto this limit. For agro based
projects loans for higher amount are also considered.
Keeping deposits in the Co-operative Banks is also beneficial for the customers as .5%
extra interest is allowed on all deposits. The borrowers also get finance at cheaper rates than the
commercial banks.
During the past years, the bank has taken special steps to provide loans to the rural
artisans and weaker sections of the society.
The bank was adjudged best bank among all Districts Central Co-op. Banks in Haryana
State during the year 1995-96 by the NABARD. One Shield and Rs. 5.00 lacks were given to the
bank for welfare of the staff.

Analysis and Discussion
In India, Co-operative banks are registered under the Co-operative Societies Act, 1912. They
generally give credit facilities to small farmers, salaried employees, small-scale industries, etc.

(B)Difference between Fixed Deposit (FD) and Recurring Deposit (RD)
When it comes to saving money in deposit-schemes, often people get
confused as to what saving-instrument to choose? Should they go for Fixed
Deposits (FD) or should they park their money in Recurring Deposits
(RD)? This tutorial attempts to answer those questions and doubts, which
people may be having in their mind with respect to these deposit-schemes.
FD (Fixed Deposit) is suitable for someone, who has some lump-some
amount and want to invest it for a specific time interval. Interest rate
depends upon the maturity period, longer the period greater the
interest rate. You can opt either for periodical returns, say
monthly/quarterly/half yearly or annually, or simply opt to get the amount
with accumulated interest at the end of the prescribed term. Premature
and partial withdrawal facilities are available, but not without some
penalty, that you have to pay at the time of withdrawal. This penalty
amount varies across banks, so you may want to check this out with
individual banks, before opting for opening an FD (Fixed Deposit). There
will be a TDS (Tax Deductible at Source) applicable to your maturity
28
amount, if the interest paid on your deposit exceeds Rs.10000/- per year.
This is fixed by government to be 10% of interest amount plus 3% Education
Case.
But if you don’t have a lump-sum amount, that you could possibly invest in
one-shot, FD (Fixed Deposit) is a no-no. But if you have a regular income
every month (say a salaried individual) and want to save a certain fixed
amount for a specific time interval, then RD(Recurring Deposit) is a better
option for you. But you need to be sure of the fact that you will be able to
pay that fixed amount every month. One of the major drawbacks with
Recurring Deposits is non-flexibility of the amount-of-deposit. Partial payment
is not allowed nor can you pay more than the decided amount. Here again,
interest rate depends upon the maturity period, longer the period
greater the interest rate. FD (Fixed Deposit) generally gives more returns,
when compared to RD (Recurring Deposit). Premature withdrawal is
applicable but some penalty you have to pay. Partial withdrawal is not
applicable. As per Income Tax Rules, there is no TDS (Tax Deductible at
Source) applicable on RD (Recurring Deposits).
Both of them have their pros and cons and it solely depends on your
requirements and your financial planning, to identify which one is better for
you? After all it’s your money, is not it

crossed cheques.Cheque is an instrument in writing

according to the co-operative principle of "one person, one vote".
Profile allocation: in a co-operative bank, a significant part of the yearly profit, benefits or
surplus is usually allocated to constitute reserves. A part of this profit can also be distributed
to the co-operative
