ACKNOWLEDGMENT
To merely say thank you is not enough. There is always some individual who comes to
your aid as a messiah and brings you into the light of knowledge and wisdom. They say
that all the people who help you in your quest for knowledge are like bricks and concrete
in a wall. They support you in all your endeavors big and small.
I am forever indebted to Mr. Shiraz Malik, Branch Manager, HDFC Bank Sector 9,
Chandigarh for allowing me to do my summer internship in his organization. His
sustained support and encouragement was the guiding light behind my efforts. I am also
in debt to my mentors Mr. Shiraz Malik, Branch Manager and Ms. Raman Mann,
Branch Operations Manager, HDFC Bank Sector 9, Chandigarh for helping me clear
the confusion that clouded my judgment and guide me through the various phases of the
internship project. Their persistence with me helped me attain knowledge and
understanding with tenacity.
Teachers are the guide who take us on the quest for knowledge and wisdom. Dr. Shivali
Dhingra, Director, Amity Global Business School and Prof. Sanjiv Dhir have been
the lighthouse in a dark sea of ignorance. They have stood firm and helped me navigate
the difficult waters of ignorance to reach the shores of knowledge and wisdom. I am
honored to have such mentors who have taken the pains to come to my rescue whenever I
was out of my depths.
Finally, the support of my parents, friends and colleagues and everyone who are too many
to be named has always held me in good stead in my times of tribulations. I draw my
sense of strength, resilience, responsibility and dedication to my work from them. I
cannot thank them enough for all the support they have extended to me.

INTRODUCTION OF BANKING
MEANING AND DEFINITION:
In nonprofessional terms, a bank is any financial institution that deals with money and
provides financial services. The primary form of banking present in the modern industrial
world is 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 cheques,
draft or otherwise."
-Banking Companies (Regulation) Act, 1949
According to the concise oxford dictionary, a bank is "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." 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
Thus, A Bank may be defined as an institute that:

Accepts deposits of money from public.


Pays interest on money deposited with it.
Lends or invests money.
Repays the amount on demand.
Allow the money deposited to be withdrawn by cheques or draft.

ORIGIN OF WORD BANK:


The origins of the word bank is unclear. According to a source, the Italian business
houses that carried on the crude from of banking were called banchi bancheri". However,
according to another source, banking is derived from German word "Branck" which
mean heap or mound. In England, the issue of paper money by the government was
referred to as raising a bank.
ORIGIN OF BANKING:
The origins of the simplest form of banking can be traced to the origin of authentic
history. Once the benefits of money as a medium of exchange were recognized, the
importance of banking was developed and enhanced as it provided a safer option of
storage of money. This safe haven ultimately evolved and grew into the modern day
financial institutions i.e. the modern commercial banks that accept deposits, extend loans
and enhance the value of the money kept with them.
BANKING SYSTEM IN INDIA
A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE:
Formal banking Practices were established in England and Germany and Italy years
before they were formally initiated in India. However, the history of modern Banking in
India can be identified into three distinct phases:
1. Early phase from 1786-1969.
2. Nationalization of banks and up to 1991 prior to banking sector reforms.
3. New phase of Indian banking with the advent of financial banking.
Banking in India has its origin as early or Vedic period. It is believed that the transitions
from many lending to banking must have occurred even before Manu, the great Hindu
furriest, who has devoted a section of his work to deposit and advances and laid down
rules relating to the rate of interest. During the Mogul period, the indigenous

banker played a very important role in lending money and financing foreign trade and
commerce.
During the days of the East India Company, it was the turn of agency house to carry on
the banking business. The General Bank of India was the first joint stock bank to be
established in the year 1786. The others that followed were the Bank of Hindustan and
Bengal Bank.
The Bank of Hindustan is reported to have continued until 1906. While other two failed
in the meantime. In the first half of the 19th century, the East India Company established
there banks, The Bank of Bengal in 1809, The Bank of Bombay in 1840 and The Bank of
Bombay in 1843. These three banks also known as the Presidency banks were the
independent units and functioned well. These three banks were amalgamated in 1920 and
new bank, the Imperial Bank of India was established on 27 January 1921.
With the passing of the State Bank of India Act in 1955, the undertaking of the Imperial
Bank of India was taken over by the newly constituted SBI. The Reserve Bank of India
(RBI), which is the Central bank, was established in April 1935 by passing Reserve bank
of India act 1935.The Central office of RBI is in Mumbai and it controls all the other
banks in the country. In the wake of Swadeshi Movement, number of banks with the
Indian management were established in the country namely, Punjab National Bank Ltd.,
Bank of India Ltd., Bank of Baroda Ltd., Canara Bank. Ltd.
On 19 July 1969, 14 major banks of the country were nationalized and on 15 April 1980,
6 more commercial private sector banks were taken over by the government.

apart from the normal banking activities.

simplification. According Fred (1992), Elton Mayo started their research known as the
human relations movement and he discovered that people work better when their attitude
is better. He undertook a research project to study what factors affected productivity in
the Hawthorne plant. Their studied took place between 1924 and 1933.

TIME STUDY
According to Fred E. Mayers (1992), time study was developed by Frederick W. Taylor in
about 1880 which he is the first person to use a stopwatch to study and measure work
content with his purpose to define a fair days work. He called as Father of Time Study.
Among his study is Taylor Shoveling Experiment, which he studied between 400 and
600 men that using his own shovel from home to moving material from mountains of
coal, coke and iron ore in around two mile-long yards. Taylor identify that there have
different size of shovels and he wondered which shovel was the most efficient. Thus, he
used a stopwatch and measured everything that workers did. He recorded the data for
every work in various ways with varied of shovels size, durations to done their work,
number of breaks and work hours. The results were fantastic which it reduced time,
saving numbers of workers and budgeting for every year.

TECHNIQUES OF MOTION AND TIME STUDY


Motion study has the greatest potential for savings. We can by eliminating the task or
combining the task with some task. We can rearrange the elements of work to reduce the

Page 38

work content and we can simplify the operation by moving part. Thus, among the
techniques for motion study are:
i.
ii.
iii.
iv.
v.

Process charts
Flow diagrams
Operation charts
Flow process charts
Multiple activity charts

Gilbreths used flow diagrams to show movement of product around an entire plant
because they gave an accurate geographical picture of the entire process. They also
develop methods study techniques such as cyclograph, chronocyclographs, movie
cameras, etc. The techniques of time study start with the last motion technique and it
shows the close relationship between motion study and time study. The techniques of
time study are:
i.
ii.
iii.
iv.

Stopwatch time study


Expert opinion standards
Predetermined time standards
Work sampling time standards

Frederick W. Taylor used a stopwatch and a clipboard to record the time and findings of
his study (Foster, 2003). Motion and Time study technique can be used widely for variety
of research. For example, Ann Hendrich, Marilyn Chow, Boguslaw A. Skierczynski,
Zhenqiang Lu (2008) used this techniques to study spend time of nurse at hospital. L.
Aharonson Daniel (1996) used time studies in A&E department. While, Jeffrey S. Smith
(2003) survey that many production and manufacturing used simulation as alternative
way to develop new effective system.

RELATIONSHIP AND UTILIZATION OF MOTION AND TIME STUDY


Motion and time study helps management determine how much is produced by workers
in a specific time frame, therefore making it easier to predict work schedules and output.
Motion and Time Study is a scientific method designed by two different people for the
same purpose, to increase productivity and reduce time. The two methods evaluate work
and try to find ways to improve processes. Frank B. Gilbreth invented motion study
designed to determine the best way to complete a job. Frederick W. Taylor designed Time

Study; it measures how long it takes a worker to complete a task. Time and Motion Study
has become a necessary tool for businesses to be successful today.
Time and Motion Study is very important in production control. Now, Offices, Banks,
Department Stores, and Hospitals use Motion and Time Study. Offices use it to measure
and simplify work in order to reduce costs. Banks use it to help team members reach their
sales goals (Foster, 2003).

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
The procedure adopted for conducting the research requires a lot of attention as it has
direct bearing on accuracy, reliability and adequacy of results obtained. It is due to this
reason that research methodology, which used during the research, needs elaboration.
Research Methodology is a way to systematically study and solve the research problems.
If a researcher wants to claim his study as a good study, he must clearly state the
methodology adapted in conducting the research the research so that it may be judged by
the reader whether the methodology of work done is sound or not.
The Research Methodology here includes.

Meaning Research:
Research is defined as a scientific and systematic search for pertinent information on a
specific topic.
Research is an art of scientific investigation. Research is a systematized effort to gain
now knowledge. It Isa careful investigation or inquiry especially through search for new
facts in any branch of knowledge. Research is an academic activity and this term should
be used in a technical sense. Research comprises defining and redefining problems,
formulating hypothesis or suggested solutions. Making deductions and reaching
conclusions to determine whether they if the formulating hypothesis. Research is thus, an
original contribution to the existing stock of knowledge making for its advancement. The

Abhirama B Sarepaka

Page 41

search for knowledge through objective and systematic method of finding solutions toe
problem is research.
Research Problem
The first step while conducting research is careful definition of Research Problem. To
ERR IS THE HUMAN is a proverb that indicates that no one is perfect in this world.
Every researcher has to face many problems which conducting any research thats why
problem statement is defined to know which type of problems a researcher has to face
while conducting any study. It is said that, Problem well defined is problem half
solved.
A problem statement refers to some difficulty, which researcher experiences in the
context of either a theoretical or a practical situation and wants to obtain the solution for
the same.
The problem statement here is To make Financial Analysis of Financial statements of
HDFC BANK.
Research Design
A research designs is the arrangement of conditions for collection and analysis data in a
manner that aims to combine relevance to the research purpose with economy in
procedure. Research Design is the conceptual structure with in which research in
conducted. It constitutes the blueprint for the collection measurement and analysis of
data. Research Design includes and outline of what the researcher will do form writing
the hypothesis and it operational implication to the final analysis of data. A research
design is framework for the study and is used as guide in collection and analyzing the
data. It is a strategy specifying which approach will be used for gathering and analyzing
the data. It also include the time and cost budget since most studies are done under these
two-cost budget since most studies are done under theses tow constraints.

Page 42

The design is such studies must be rigid and not flexible and most focus attention on the
following.
1. What is the study about?
2. Why is the study being made?
3. Where will the study be carried out?
4. What type of data is required?
5. Where can be required data be found?
6. What period will the study include?
7. What will be sample design?
8. What techniques of data collection will be used?
9. How will the data be analyzed?
10. In what style will the report be prepared?
TYPES OF RESEARCH DESIGN:

Experimental research design


Exploratory research design
Descriptive & diagnostic research

Exploratory Research Design: This research design is preferred when researcher has a
vague idea about the problem the researcher has to explore the subject.
Experimental Research Design: The research design is used to provide strong basis for
the existence of casual relationship between two or more variables.
Descriptive Research Design: It seeks to determine the answers to who, what, where,
when and how questions. It is based on some previous understanding of the matter.
Diagnostic Research Design: It determines the frequency with which something occurs
or its association with something else.
Research Design Used in this Project

Abhirama B Sarepaka
of 112

Page 43

Research Design chosen for this study is Descriptive Research Design. Descriptive study
is based on some previous understanding of the topic. Research has a very specific
objective and clear-cut data requirements.
Sampling Design
Sampling is necessary because it is almost impossible to examine the entire parent
population (i.e. the entire universe) various factors such as time available cost, purpose of
study etc. make it necessary for the researchers to choose a sample. It should be neither
too small nor too big. It should be manageable. The sample size of past 5 years is taken
for present study due to time limitation.
DATA COLLECTIONS
The process of data collection begins after a research problem has been defined and
research design has been chalked out. There are two types of data, Primary and
Secondary.
Primary Data: It is first hand data, which is collected by researcher itself. Primary data
is collected by various approaches to get a precise, accurate, realistic and relevant data.
The main tool in gathering primary data was investigation and observation. It was
achieved by a direct approach and observation from the officials of the company.
Secondary Data: It is the data, which is already collected by someone else. Researcher
has to analyze the data and interprets the results. It has always been important for the
completion of any report. It provides reliable, suitable, adequate and specific knowledge
took data comprise annual reports and post records. The secondary data for the purpose of
the analysis represents the annual reports of years 2008-09 until 2012-2013. The valuable
cooperation extended by staff members contributed a lot to fulfill the requirements in the
collection of data in order to complete the project. Various statistical tools are applied
depending on the research problem. In this study ratio analysis, comparative financial
Abhirama B Sarepaka

DATA PERIOD
This study has been carried with five years of data. The data period is from the financial
years 2008-2009 to 2012-2013.
TOOLS USED
Ratio analysis is used to evaluate relationships among financial statement items. The
ratios are used to identify trends over time for one company or to compare two or more
companies at one point in time. Financial statement ratio analysis focuses on three key
aspects of a business: liquidity, profitability, and solvency.

various measures like Net Profit Ratio and Capital Turnover Ratio.
Forecasting Financial Statements is the process of estimating future business
performance (sales, costs, earnings).Corporations use forecasting to do financial
planning, which includes assessment of their future financial needs.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY FOR TIME MOTION STUDIES
METHODOLOGY FRAMEWORK
Several methods will be used to achieve research objectives. After the literature review,
observation and collecting data is needed. The complete field data collection will be
tested before it will be used for data analysis.
The problems and nonproductive in the work process can be identified based on the data
collection and their analysis. Then, the result from the data testing will be determined
whether the result can be used or not and if there are any incomplete data, the data
collection will be executed again until it fulfills the objective requirement. After all the
data and analysis are complete, proposal and opinion may be given to the organization.

RESEARCH DESIGN
This research was conducted through field study. Field study is all the methods of
research are made from direct observations towards the live study situations. Researcher
collected data by observing and recorded the research subject during the observation.
According to Tunnell, 1977, the event from the field study is a matter of real situation in
the live condition continuously. The matter is not invent, on design or pause for the
research purpose.

VARIABLES
The variables in this study can be classified into two types, which are independent (time
and motion technique and dependent variable (the work process under consideration).
Abhirama B Sarepaka

Page 46

This research used time and motion technique to study on improving the work process.
Meaning, the increasing of work process efficiency is depending on the time and motion
technique.

BASIC PROCEDURE FOR RESEARCH


There are four steps to complete this study. There are given below according to their
sequence:
a.
b.
c.
d.

Select: select the process or job to be studied.


Record: observe and record all the relevant facts related to the work process.
Examine: examine each recorded fact critically
Develop: develop the most efficient work process.

DATA COLLECTION
This research requires to collect data that are related to the time during the work process
occurs, the movement or distance for each process and number of products that they can
produces in specific time, which was collect based on several methods:
a. Systematic Observation
b. Stopwatch Time Study
c. Process Chart

SYSTEMATIC OBSERVATION
Systematic observation means researcher are required to observe the whole work process
in that industry, then select and focusing on which process or job that want to study.
Based on the observation, is needs to record everything happens in each process from the
start to finish the work process.

STOPWATCH TIME STUDY


Stopwatch time study is the work measurement to determine the baseline for future
improvement. It is also used to analyze a specific process by qualified workers in an
effort to find the most efficient ways in terms of time. Moreover, this method measures
the time necessary for a work process to be completed using the best ways. The time was
measured using snapback stopwatch equipment because it is easier and faster in data
recording. Moreover, this type of stopwatch is suitable for this research because it can

Abhirama B Sarepaka
of 112

Page 47

develop accurate data. This allows the element times to be entered directly on the time
study sheet without the need for subtractions.

PROCESS CHART
Process chart is used to show facts as handling, inspection, operations, storage and delays
that occur in the work process, where it was happened when the process moves from one
process to another process until it finished. Each fact can be represented by symbols,
where it is used to describe the process steps.

DATA ANALYSIS
After all data is collected, the next step is analyzing the data thoroughly for each work
process. Analyzing data based on systematic observation and the process chart, which
recorded all the relevant facts about the work process. Thus identifying the sections of
the work force are nonproductive and take a long time in the work process.

Based on the above information, it is possible to analyze and produce ratios with
meaning.
CURRENT RATIO:
This ratio measures the degree of short-term liquidity of the bank. It indicates whether the
current assets are sufficient to meet the current liabilities. It is generally believed that a
good current ratio should be between 1.5:1 and 2:1.

INTERPRETATION: Current ratio is gradually improving. It is very low (0.03) in the


year 2010 and high (0.78) in the year 2013. This is because the bank raised more current
account deposits (current liabilities) during the year 2010, which results in the lower

INTERPRETATION: Liquid Assets to Total Assets ratio increased from the year 2009
to 2011 and it was high (0.13) during 2010 because of the increase in money at call and
short notice during that period. The Liquidity Ratio gradually decreases and was very low
(0.06) in the year 2012 because of decrease in the maintenance of money with RBI and
very low maintenance of money at call and short-term notice.

in liquid assets(money at call and short notice) and decrease in current liabilities( interest
accrued) in 2010. It again decreases during 2011 and 2012 because of decrease in money
at call and short notice with other institutions.

Credit to Deposit Ratio for HDFC Bank for the Financial Years 2008-09

until 2012-2013.
INTERPRETATION: Credit Deposit Ratio is increasing over the period indicating that
the bank is giving more loans from the deposited amount, which means that banks might
not have enough liquidity to cover any unforeseen fund requirements. This is because the
bank is increasing its cash credits, over drafts, loans repayable on demand components,
which may block the availability of fund.

SOLVENCY RATIOS
These ratios indicate banks involvement in the total resources and provide basis for
measuring leverage ratio.
These ratios indicate the ability of the bank to meet its medium as well as long-term
obligations and provide the basis for measuring the leverage effect on the bank. The
various ratios employed were as follows:
Abhirama B Sarepaka

Page 56

DEBT-EQUITY RATIO
This ratio is called leverage ratio. This compares the banks stake in the business with
outside term liabilities. Lower value of the ratio indicates that the leverage effect will be
restricted to the minor role of debt and major capital being equity, the bank is supposed to
be trading on thick equity.
Debt Equity Ratio = Long Term Liabilities / Net Worth
In the above ratio, debt represents only long-term liabilities and not current liabilities
(deposit- fixed, saving), while equity refers to net worth after deducting intangible assets.

Debt Equity Ratio for HDFC Bank for the Financial Years 2008-09 until

2012-2013.
INTERPRETATION: In the financial year ending 31 March 2009, the Debt-Equity
Ratio was very high at 9.49. However, the ratio decreased to a low (7.78) in the year 2010
and increased gradually because of high increase in capital reserve (additions during the
year and opening balance). In 2011, 2012 change in capital reserve is very less but
liabilities are increasing and in 2013, the company increased its capital reserve, which
results in the decrement (8.18), a good sign.
INDEBTEDNESS RATIO
The ratio indicates the amount owed by the bank to creditors. The ratio reflects the
solvency position of the bank in a better way. The lower the ratio, the better is the
solvency position.

INTERPRETATION: In 2009, the indebted ratio is very high at 12.18, which means
that the net liabilities of the bank were much higher than they were in the subsequent
years. Indebtedness ratio is also low in 2010 and again increased in 2011 and 2012 and
decreased in the 2013 because of change in capital reserve and increase in liabilities.

Fixed Assets to Net Worth Ratio for HDFC Bank for the Financial Years

INTERPRETATION: Fixed asset turn to net worth ratio is showing that Net worth is
frozen in the form of fixed assets in the year 2009. Later in the years 2011 & 2012 the
bank opened 558 new branches and 3400 new ATMs which required high infrastructure
and staffing expenses. These all shows that the bank is expanding more and it is resulting
in more assets and at the same time it also indicates the actual amount of fixed assets the
bank hold.
TESTS OF STRENGTH
This test provides a basis to know the real worth of the Bank. The term net-worth refers
to the owned funds employed in the business.

Abhirama B Sarepaka

NET WORTH
It indicates what the bank owes to the owners of the business. It measures the excess of
assets over outside liabilities, which indicates the soundness of the bank.

Abhirama B Sarepaka
of 112

Page 61

INTERPRETATION: Net worth of the bank is increasing year to year which indicates
the soundness of the bank. Even though there is a positive sign in equity, the strength of
the net worth is frozen in the form of fixed assets in the year 2009 resulting in high
(10.64). The expansion of the bank in terms of number of new branches (558) and new
ATMs (3400) required high infrastructural and staffing expenses and hence the net worth
of the bank is low in the years 2011 and 2012.

NET CAPITAL RATIO:


The ratio indicates the degree of liquidity of the bank in the end. It measures the degree
of availability of assets to pay off the long term liabilities. This ratio indicates the
relationship between total assets and liabilities of the bank.
This ratio would throw light on the real financial strength of the bank.
Net Capital Ratio = Total Assets / Total liabilities (Outside/ External).

because of increase in assets during these two years and is decreased in 2012 (1.097) and
again increased in 2013 (1.099) indicating the increase in external and outside liabilities.
PROFITABILITY RATIOS
These ratios were used to compare the return to the investment. Following were the
important ratios computed. This ratio provides a sound method of diagnosis of the
financial status and overall efficiency of the Bank. It indicates the profitability of the
investment and credit given by the bank.

EFFICIENCY RATIOS
This test provides a clear picture of financial efficiency of the bank. It indicates the
profits for every rupee spent.

Abhirama B Sarepaka

Page 67

Four ratios were adopted to assess the efficiency of the bank, viz., Gross Ratio, Operating
Ratio, Management Ratio and Establishment Ratio.

GROSS RATIO
This ratio helps to ascertain how efficiently the gross income of the bank was earned. The
ratio was computed as follows.
Gross Ratio = Total Expenses / Gross Income
The gross income included interest and discount, commission and brokerage and other
income. The total expenses included interest, salary, allowance, rent, legal expenses, audit
expenses and other provisions.

expansion in the branch network and amalgamation of centurion bank which results in
the large amount of expenses and the ratio increased again in 2012 (0.844) because of
expansion of network from 2544 to 3062 branches and increase in ATMs from 8,913 to
10,743.
OPERATING RATIO
This ratio indicates the proportion of gross income being used for meeting the operating
expenses. An increase in the ratio indicates a decline in the efficiency of the bank.
Operating Ratio = Operating Expenses / Gross Income
The operating expenses included interest, salary; allowances, provident fund contribution,
rent, legal expenses, audit expenses and other expenses (excluded provisions).

DUPONT ANALYSIS
DuPont analysis tells us that three things affect ROE: - Operating efficiency, which is
measured by profit margin. - Asset use efficiency, which is measured by total asset
turnover. - Financial leverage, which is measured by the equity multiplier.
ROE = Profit Margin (Profit/Sales) * Total Asset Turnover (Sales/Assets) * Equity
Multiplier (Assets/Equity)

Return on Equity (ROE): measures overall profitability of the financial institute per
rupee of equity
Return on Assets (ROA): measures profit generated relative to the financial institutes
assets.
Equity Multiplier (EM): measures the extent to which assets of the financial institute
are funded with equity relative to debt.
Profit Margin (PM): measures the ability to pay expenses and generate net income from
interest and noninterest income.
Asset Utilization (AU): measures the amount of interest and noninterest income
generated per dollar of total assets.
Return on Equity and Its Components
ROE is defined as:
ROE=

Net income

___

Total equity capital

Abhirama B Sarepaka
of 112

Page 74

It measures the amount of net income after taxes earned for each Rupee of equity capital
contributed by the banks stockholders. Taking these data from the financial statements of
HDFC bank, ROE can be calculated into values as mentioned above in the table.
Generally, bank stockholders prefer ROE to be high. It is possible; however, that an
increase in ROE indicates increased risk. For example, ROE increases if total equity
capital decreases relative to net income. A large drop in equity capital may result in a
violation of minimum regulatory capital standards and an increased risk of insolvency for
the bank. An increase in ROE may simply result from an increase in a banks leverage
an increase in its debt-to-equity ratio.
Generally, bank stockholders prefer ROE to be high.
ROE can be decomposed into two components as
ROE = ROA x EM
ROA = Net Income X Total Assets
Total Assets Equity Capital
High values for these ratios produce high ROEs, but, as noted, managers should be
concerned about the source of high ROEs. For example, an increase in ROE due to an
increase in the EM means that the banks leverage, and therefore its solvency risk, has
increased. A further breakdown of a banks profitability is that of dividing (ROA) into its
profit margin (PM) and asset utilization (AU) ratio components
ROA= Net income X Total operating income
Total operating income Total assets
ROA= PM X AU

Page 75

PM measures the banks ability to control the expenses. AU measures the banks ability
to generate the income from assets.
INTERPRETATION: The overall ROE of the bank is increasing which is a good sign.
In 2009, ROE is 14.9% gradually it increases and recorded highest in the year 2013
(18.57). At the same time EM is fluctuating and decreased from 2009 (12.17) to 2010
(10.33) and again it increased in the year 2013 (11.054). This indicates that because of
high expansion bank has experienced some decrease during those years and now it is able
to have control over the assets. All the other components are indicating the soundness of
the bank.

TIME MOTION STUDIES


Time motion studies have helped identify the efficiency of the counters under
consideration by timing the activities of the counters for three consecutive days.

Figure 21. Graphical representation of the average time for Cheques Encashment at two
counters as part of Time Motion Studies.
From the above tables and graphs, it is evident that Counter-A is better performing than
Counter-B and that the average time for cheques deposit is lower than that for cash
deposits or cheques encashment. Cheques encashment occupies the most time or any of
the transactions. Counter-B is more consistent in time consumed for individual
transaction. Furthermore, on comparison of the variations of times for the transactions at
Abhirama B Sarepaka

Page 78

the counters, it is observed that Counter-A shows more inter-day variations than CounterB.
In addition when seen as in relation with the footfall studies data, one can draw
conclusions that both counters encounter the most transactions on Monday followed by
Tuesday and decreases to a minimum on Wednesday. Furthermore, Counter-B handles a
higher volume of the footfall as compared to Counter-A. The detailed data can be found
in the annexures I & II.
FOOTFALL STUDIES
Footfall studies are a wonderful tool to analyze the flow of customers into the bank on a
particular day. These studies were conducted at the bank from Monday to Friday and for
the duration of the banking hours of 10am until 4pm.
The table below shows the number of customers who come to the tellers in HDFC Bank
Sector 9 Chandigarh during a usual business week. The duration of observation was from
Monday to Friday.

Table 24. Footfall on 5 working days during business hours at the Counter: Tellers and
the respective Daily total footfall.
From the data above, it is clear that the busiest days for the tellers are Monday, Tuesday
and Friday. The total footfall is identical on Tuesday and Wednesday, decreases on
Thursday and peaks on Friday and Monday. However, the hour-to-hour footfall is varied
and the general trend is of a busier morning half as compared to a relaxed afternoon half
of the business hours.

The above graph corroborates the data table given above further enforcing the point that
the teller counters encounter the most footfall on Monday, Tuesday and Friday. The above
data also confirms the data collected during the time motion studies that most influx of
customers is on Monday followed by Tuesday and the least on Wednesday.

The above graph is another aspect of interpreting the data collected in the table given
above. It can be observed distinctly that the busiest hours of business are from 11am until
1pm. The number of customers visiting the teller counters are consistently on the higher
side during the business hours of 11am until 1pm. Furthermore, the inflow of customers
to the counters diminishes quite rapidly from 1pm onwards.
The general inflow of customers at the tellers is high during on Monday, Tuesday and
Friday with the lowest footfall on Wednesday.

The general trend of the footfall at the welcome desk is of progressive increase to the end
of week and the inflow of customers to the welcome desk is uniformly higher on Friday
as compared to the other days of the week. The number of customers at the beginning of
the week is low as well as uniform throughout the day. However, on Friday and on
Monday, the number of customers is highest during 12 and 1pm. Moreover, on Friday, the
number of customers is consistently around the high mark during the business hour of 1
& 2pm. It may be seen that the influx of customers during last business hour is very low
on all the days of observation.

Here also, as in the case of the ADM counter, the ABM counter also sees very low
volumes of customers. The footfall at the ABM counter is on an average one customer
per business hour throughout the days of observation. However, it is noteworthy to
observe that three is a higher consistency in the influx of customers during the last hour
of the working hours of the bank. Another point to note is the lack of customer at the
ABM on a Monday between 10am and 2pm.

Again, the trend of the footfall at the New Accounts counter is virtually identical to those
seen with the ADM and the ABM counters. There is on average one customer per
business hour throughout on the days of observation of the New Accounts counter.
Furthermore, it is seen that during the initial hour of the banks operations i.e. 10am to
11am there is sporadic footfall. However, from 11am onwards the footfall is consistent
with a slight dip around 1pm.
In addition, there is no specific hoard of customers on any day during the week. There is
regular influx of customers to the tune of 4-5 customers per day.

Yet again, it can be seen that the trend of the footfall at the Current Accounts counter is
essentially indistinguishable to those seen with the New Accounts, ADM and the ABM
counters. There is on average one customer per business hour throughout on the days of
observation of the New Accounts counter. Furthermore, it is seen that during the initial
hour of the banks operations i.e. 10am to 11am there is intermittent footfall.
In addition, there is no specific hoard of customers on any day during the week. There is
regular influx of customers to the tune of 4-5 customers per day. However, it can be seen
that the footfall on a Friday is least with customers preferring to walk in after the
lunchtime. Furthermore, Thursday sees the most consistent entry of customers.

From the data and graphs, it is evident that there is essentially no footfall during the
period of 11am until 12pm. Furthermore, from 1pm until 2 pm the footfall is again
negligible. In addition, there is negligible footfall on Wednesday and for half of Thursday.
On Friday there is again, only two individuals have called upon the PB Authorizer-1.
Even on an average, the number of individuals walking to the PB Authorizer-1 has been
at best sporadic and consistently low.

Figure 37. Graphical representation of the Footfall at the Locker Operations counter
during business hours on 5 working days and categorization as per hour of operation.
The data indicates that the average footfall for locker operations in the bank is about one
person per hour per day. It is also seen that there is no influx of customers for locker
operations from 11am until 12pm. In addition, very rarely customers come to operate
their lockers from 1pm until 2pm. Even at other times during the day, the inflow is
erratic. Furthermore, the footfall on Wednesday and Friday is hardly one person during
the entire day.

From the data and graphs, it is evident that there is essentially negligible footfall during
the period of 2pm until 3pm. Furthermore, from 3pm until 4 pm the footfall is again
negligible. In addition, there is negligible footfall on Thursday and for most part of
Friday. Only on Monday and Tuesday, some activity can be seen at the PB Authorizer-2.

Still, on an average, the number of individuals walking to the PB Authorizer-2 has been at
best intermittent, irregular and consistently low.

At the Relationship Managers desk, the number of people visiting during the week
ranges from a trifling two people on a Wednesday and none on Thursday to six customers
on Monday and five on Tuesday. Additionally, the distribution of the customers coming
to the relationship managers desk during the day is again very uneven because no
specific pattern can be identified. However, it is evident from the data, the graphs that the
time from 2pm to 3pm is extremely low, and only on one day that customers came to the
desk during this time.

From the graphs above, it is clear that the general distribution of customer inflow to the
relationship managers desk is uniform throughout the day and dwindles only in the last
two hours of business. In addition, Thursday and Friday are the lean days, while
Wednesday is a below average day. Monday and Tuesday see a higher than average
footfall with the desk on Monday being fully occupied throughout the day.

As was the case with the first Relationship Manager, the average footfall at the
relationship manager is essential the same. Again, the footfall from 1pm until 3 pm is
appalling. In addition, the relationship manager has only one person in the entire day on
Thursday as well as Friday. Monday and Tuesday see the most amount of traffic at the
relationship managers desk.

Again, the trend is very similar to the forex-1 counter. There is absolutely no influx of
customers to the forex-2 counter on Friday. In addition, there is an average footfall of
only 1-2 persons per day on the rest of the days. Tuesday and Wednesday show a very
marginal footfall that increases slightly on Thursday.
When evaluating the data based on footfall per business hour, it is seen that no customers
come to the counter during 1-2pm stretch. Furthermore, footfall from 2pm until 4pm is a
very meagre one person per hour. The relative higher footfall can be observed from 10am
until 1pm with an average of two persons per hour.

Figure 53. Graphical representation of the Footfall at the Forex Teller counter during
business hours on 5 working days and categorization as per hour of operation.

The forex teller sees an average footfall of five persons per day and a peak traffic of
seven people during the 1pm to 2pm business hour. The footfall is low at the beginning of
the day and gradually increases until 1pm and starts dwindling around 2pm. Furthermore,
Monday, Tuesday and Thursday sees a higher traffic as compared to Wednesday and
Friday. When comparing Wednesday and Friday, it is found that Wednesday has a higher
influx. Friday sees the least traffic of all the days of observation.

From the footfall studies and the time motion studies, it can be observed that Mondays
and Fridays are the busiest days for the tellers, while Wednesdays are busy days for the
welcome desk and for the rest of the branch, the spread of the influx of customers is fairly
uniform no specific pattern and busy or down time. These studies also indicate that the
time from 11am until 2pm handles the most traffic of customers in the branch. The last
hour of business reflects the lowest footfall on the days of observation.

sign to the shareholders and the stakeholders.

III requirements

functions and assets but it takes less time for the bank to regain its profits
The bank has been expanding its branches with less costs and expenses by

managing its human power and assets efficiently


Profitability and solvency ratios are indicating good soundness of the bank.
Efficiency ratios like management ,operating, operating and gross ratios are
indicating that the bank is effectively managing the employee costs and other

administrative costs

current assets for current liabilities but actually banks maintain the capital to risk

CAGR, Altman Z-score and benchmarking to industry are ignored.


Findings are not confined to individual branch.
Although basic patterns of the Footfall studies and Time Motion studies have been
identified, they are however, subject to the various aspects such as deposit and
withdrawal patterns of month beginnings, weather, re-opening of schools and

colleges, etc.
Footfall and time motion studies are specific for a single branch of HDFC Bank
and cannot be generalized for all branches.
