Introduction of Bank
1.1Definition of Bank:
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 origin of the word bank is shrouded in mystery. According to one view point the
Italian business house carrying on crude from of banking were called banchibancheri"
According to another viewpoint 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 a raising a bank.
Origin of banking
Its origin in the simplest form can be traced to the origin of authentic history. After
recognizing the benefit of money as a medium of exchange, the importance of banking
was developed as it provides the safer place to store the money. This safe place ultimately
evolved in to financial institutions that accepts deposits and make loans i.e., modern
commercial banks.
Without a sound and effective banking system in India it cannot have a healthy
economy.The banking system of India should not only be hassle free but it should be able
2
to meet new challenges posed by the technology and any other external and internal
factors.
For the past three decades India's banking system has several outstanding achievements
to its credit. The most striking is its extensive reach. It is no longer confined to only
metropolitans or cosmopolitans in India. In fact, Indian banking system has reached even
to the remote corners of the country. This is one of the main reasons of India's growth
process.
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 other which followed was the Bank of Hindustan and
Bengal Bank. The Bank of Hindustan is reported to have continued till 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 in1843. 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 27th 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
3
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 19th July 1969, 14 major banks of the country were
nationalized and on 15th April 1980, 6 more commercial private sector banks were taken
over by the government.
New phase of Indian Banking System with the advent of Indian Financial & Banking
Sector Reforms after 1991.
Phase I
The General Bank of India was set up in the year 1786. Next came Bank of Hindustan
and Bengal Bank. The East India Company established Bank of Bengal (1809), Bank of
Bombay (1840) and Bank of Madras (1843) as independent units and called it Presidency
Banks.
These three banks were amalgamated in 1920 and Imperial Bank of India was established
which started as private shareholders banks, mostly Europeans shareholders.
4
In 1865 Allahabad Bank was established and first time exclusively by Indians, Punjab
National Bank Ltd. was set up in 1894 with headquarters at Lahore. Between 1906 and
1913, Bank of India, Central Bank of India, Bank of Baroda, Canara Bank, Indian Bank,
and Bank of Mysore were set up. Reserve Bank of India came in 1935.
Phase II
Government took major steps in this Indian Banking Sector Reform after independence.
In1955, it nationalized Imperial Bank of India with extensive banking facilities on a large
scale especially in rural and semi-urban areas. It formed State Bank of India to act as the
principal agent of RBI and to handle banking transactions of the Union and State
Governments all over the country.
Seven banks forming subsidiary of State Bank of India was nationalized in 1960 on 19th
July,1969, major process of nationalization was carried out. It was the effort of the then
Prime Minister of India, Mrs. Indira Gandhi. 14 major commercial banks in the country
was nationalized.
Second phase of nationalization Indian Banking Sector Reform was carried out in 1980
with seven more banks. This step brought 80% of the banking segment in India under
Government ownership.
Phase III
This phase has introduced many more products and facilities in the banking sector in its
reforms measure. In 1991, under the chairmanship of M Narasimham, a committee was
set up by his name which worked for the liberalization of banking practices.
The country is flooded with foreign banks and their ATM stations. Efforts are being put
to give a satisfactory service to customers. Phone banking and net banking is introduced.
The financial system of India has shown a great deal of resilience. It is sheltered from any
crisis triggered by any external macroeconomics shock as other East Asian Countries
suffered. This is all due to a flexible exchange rate regime, the foreign reserves are high,
the capital account is not yet fully convertible, and banks and their customers have
limited foreign exchange exposure.
5
Banks in India
In India the banks are being segregated in different groups. Each group has their own
benefits and limitations in operating in India. Each has their own dedicated target market.
Few of them only work in rural sector while others in both rural as well as urban. Many
even are only catering in cities. Some are of Indian origin and some are foreign players.
All these details and many more is discussed over here. The banks and its relation with
the customers, their mode of operation, the names of banks under different groups and
other such useful information’s are talked about.
One more section has been taken note of is the upcoming foreign banks in India. The RBI
has shown certain interest to involve more of foreign banks than the existing one
recently. This step has paved a way for few more foreign banks to start business in India.

Reserve Bank of India
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is India's central banking institution, which controls
the issuance and supply of the Indian rupee. Until the Monetary Policy Committee was
established in 2016, it also controlled monetary policy in India.It commenced its
operations on 1 April 1935 in accordance with the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934. The
original share capital was divided into shares of 100 each fully paid, which were initially
owned entirely by private shareholders. Following India's independence on 15 August
1947, the RBI was nationalized on 1st January 1949.
Scheduled banks fulfill the condition that the paid up capital and collected funds of banks
should not be less than ₹ 5 lakh. Any activity in the bank will not adversely affect the
interest of deposit.
A scheduled bank is eligible for obtaining loans/debts on bank rate from RBI
Commercial banks
A commercial bank is a type of bank that provides services such as accepting deposits,
making business loans, and offering basic investment products that is operated as a
business for profit.
It can also refer to a bank, or a division of a large bank, which deals with corporations or
large/middle-sized business to differentiate it from a retail bank and an investment bank.
Private banking in India was practiced since the beginning of banking system in India. It is one of
the fastest growing Bank Private Sector Banks in India. IDBI ranks the tenth largest development
bank in the world as Private Banks in India and has promoted world class institutions in India.
7
PSU banks
Public sector banks are those banks which are owned by the Government. The Govt. runs
these Banks. In India 14 banks were nationalized in 1969 & in 1980 another 6 banks were
also nationalized. Therefore in 1980 the number of nationalized bank were 20.
Since then merger of these bank has taken several times as of SBI and its associates
banks from time to time and government is planning for merger of more banks.
Being merged
There are two ways of presence of foreign banks in India. First is the branch form of the
presence which means that the foreign bank has its physical branch in India. Second is
the presence through representative office in India which is actually not a branch. Like
Australia and new Zealand banking group, The Bank of Tokyo- Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd
Qatar National Banketc

Rural banks in India
Rural banking in India started since the establishment of banking sector in India. Rural
Banks in those days mainly focused upon the agro sector. Regional rural banks in India
penetrated every corner of the country and extended a helping hand in the growth process
of the country. Apart from SBI, there are other few banks which functions for the
development of the rural areas.

The country’s middle class accounts for over 320 million People. In correlation with the
growth of the economy, rising income levels, increased standard of living, and
affordability of banking products are promising factors for continued expansion.

During FY07–18, deposits grew at a CAGR of 11.66 per cent and reached US$ 1.6
trillion by FY17.
Strong growth in savings amid rising disposable income levels are the major factors
influencing deposit growth.
Access to banking system has also improved over the years due to persistent
government efforts to promote banking-technology
Deposits under Pradhan Mantri Jan DhanYojana (PMJDY), have also increased
to₹80,674.82 crore (US$ 12.03 billion) were deposited and 32.25 million accounts

1.3 INTRODUCTION TO TOPIC
The term financial analysis is also known as ‘analysis and interpretation of financial
statements’ refers to the process of determining financial strength and weakness of the
firm by establishing strategic relationship between the items of the Balance Sheet, Profit
and Loss account and other operative data.
The first task of financial analysis is to select the information relevant to the decision
under consideration to the total information contained in the financial statement. The
second step is to arrange the information in a way to highlight significant relationship.
The final step is interpretation and drawing of inference and conclusions. Financial
statement is the process of selection, relation and evaluation.
To classify the items contained in the financial statement in convenient and rational
groups.
19
To know the efficiency of mgt.
They provide some extremely useful information to the extent that balance Sheet mirrors
the financial position on a particular date in terms of the structure of assets, liabilities and
owners’ equity, and so on and the Profit And Loss account shows the results of
operations during a certain period of time in terms of the revenues obtained and the cost
incurred during the year. Thus the financial statement provides a summarized view of
financial positions and operations of a firm.
The following procedure is adopted for the analysis and interpretation of financial
statements
The analyst should acquaint himself with principles and postulated of accounting. He
should know the plans and policies of the management so that he may be able to find
out whether these plans are properly executed or not.
The extent of analysis should be determined so that the sphere of work may be
decided. If the aim is find out. Earning capacity of the enterprise then analysis of
20
income statement will be undertaken. On the other hand, if financial position is to be
studied then balance sheet analysis will be necessary.
The financial data be given in statement should be recognized and rearranged. It will
involve the grouping similar data under same heads. Breaking down of individual
components of statement according to nature. The data is reduced to a standard form.
A relationship is established among financial statements with the help of tools &
techniques of analysis such as ratios, trends, common size, fund flow etc.
The conclusions drawn from interpretation are presented to the management in the
form of reports.
b) Vertical Analysis
This is used when financial statements of a particular year or on a particular date
are analyzed. For this type of analysis we generally use common size statements
21
and the ratio analysis. It involves a study of quantitative relationship among
various items of balance sheet and profit and loss account. This type of analysis is
static analysis because this is based on the financial results of one year. Vertical
analysis is useful when we have to compare the performance of different
departments of the same company.
Among these two types of analysis, horizontal analysis is more useful because it
brings out more clearly the trends of working of a firm. This gives us more concrete
bases for future planning.
a) Internal Analysis
This analysis is based on the information available to the business firm only
.Hence internal analysis is made by the management. Internal analysis is more
reliable and helpful for financial decisions.
b) External Analysis
This analysis is made on the basis of published statements,reports and
information’s. This analysis is made by external parties such as creditors,
Investors,banks,financial analysis etc. external analysis is less reliable in
comparison to internal analysis because of limited and often incomplete
information.
22
Similarly when financial statements of two or more years of the same firm are
analyzed and compared it is also called as intra-firm analysis.
a) Accounting Analysis
Accounting analysis is analysis of past financial performance and involves
examining
How generally accepted accounting principles and conventions have been
applied in
arriving at the values of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.
b) Prospective Analysis
Prospective analysis involves developing forecasted financial statements
keeping in view the changes that are likely to shape and affect the business
given the assumptions about these changes and the limitation of the forecasting
technique used. This is quite complicated analysis.
23
Comparative financial statements
When financial statements figures for two or more years are placed side-side to facilitate
comparison, these are called ‘comparative Financial Statements’. Such statements not
only show the absolute figures of various years but also provide for columns to indicate
to increase or decrease in these figures from one year to another. In addition, these
statements may also show the change from one year to another on percentage form. Such
cooperative statements are of great value in forming the opinion regarding the progress of
the enterprise.
To simplify data
To make inter period/inter-firm comparison
To indicate the trends
To enable forecasting
To indicate the strengths and weaknesses of the firm
To compare the performance
To analyse expenses
To analyse profits
Comparative financial statement is a tool of financial analysis that depicts change in each
item of the financial statement in both absolute amount and percentage term, taking the
item in preceding accounting period as base.
Comparison and analysis of financial statements may be carried out using the following
tools
24
The main purpose of comparative balance sheet is to measure the short- term and long-
term solvency position of the business.
Presenting the change in various items in relation to total assets or total liabilities
or net sales.
Establishing a relationship.
Providing a common base for comparison.
25
2. Common-Size Income Statement
Common-size income statement is a statement in which the figures of net sales is
assumed to be equal to 100 and all other figures of “profit and loss A/c” are
expressed as percentage of net sales. This statement facilitate the vertical
analysiss since each accounting variable is analyzed vertically. One can draw
conclusion, regarding the behaviour of expenses over period of time by examining
these percentages.
Trend Analysis
Trend percentage are very useful is making comparative study of the financial statements
for a number of years. These indicate the direction of movement over a long time and
help an analyst of financial statements to form an opinion as to whether favorable or
unfavorable tendencies have developed. This helps in future forecasts of various items.
For calculating trend percentages any year may be taken as the ‘base year’. Each item of
base year is assumed to be equal to 100 and on that basis the percentage of item of each
year calculated.
Ratio Analysis
Meaning
Absolute figures expressed in financial statements by themselves are meaningfulness.
These figures often do not convey much meaning unless expressed in relation to other
figures. Thus, it can be say that the relationship between two figures, expressed in
arithmetical terms is called a ratio.
“A ratio is simply one number expressed in terms of another. It is found by dividing
one number into the other.”
According to R.N. Anthony
26
Objective of the ratio analysis
Classification of ratios
In view of the financial management or according to the tests satisfied, various ratios
have been classified as below:
27
Liquidity Ratios
These are the ratios which measure the short-term solvency or financial position of a
firm. These ratios are calculated to comment upon the short-term paying capacity of a
concern or the firm’s ability to meet its current obligations.

Literature Review
Review of literature
Empirical literature consist of study made by other in the same field. The published data
in newspaper, books, annual reports and magazines available for discussion with people
of organization.
Cooper (2000)
1) He conducted a study on Financial Intermediation on which he observed that the
quantitative behavior of business-cycle models in which the intermediation process
acts either as a source of fluctuations or as a propagator of real shocks. In neither case
do we find convincing evidence that the intermediation process is an important
element of aggregate fluctuations. For an economy driven by intermediation shocks,
consumption is not smoother than output, investment is negatively correlated with
output, variations in the capital stock are quite large, and interest rates are procyclical.
The model economy thus fails to match unconditional moments for the U.S.
economy. We also structurally estimate parameters of a model economy in which
intermediation and productivity shocks are present, allowing for the intermediation
process to propagate the real shock. The unconditional correlations are closer to those
observed only when the intermediation shock is relatively unimportant.
2) Munya Mtetwa (2010)
In this article he short propose that about the fixed asset. He define that fixed assets
30
are assets that are used in production or supply of goods or services and they are to be
used within the business for more than one financial year. Consequently, fixed assets
represent the company's long term income generating assets and they can either be
tangible or non tangible. It includes land and buildings, plant and equipment, golf
courses, casinos, football players, machinery and hotels depending on the nature of
the business under consideration. Fixed asset turnover = Sales / Net fixed asset.

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 a 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. The design is such studies must be rigid and not flexible and most focus
attention on the following

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.
Primary Data
It is first hand data, which is collected by researcher itself. Primary data is collected by
various approaches so as 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.
The data used in the study is ‘secondary data’.

Deposits
Deposits are liability to banks, which need money to lend. It is the amount that any
citizen (resident or no-resident) keep with the bank subject to some regulatory
compliance. In turn, banks pay interest on deposits. It is considered the safest form of
investment. Deposits are of two types current and savings deposits (CASA) as well as
term deposits.
Advances
Advance is the amount that banks lend to individuals and companies. They charge
interest on loans. Interest rates vary depending on the terms and conditions of such credit.
Banks raise money to lend through different sources like deposits, money market and so
on.
Net profits
Net profit is the result after all expenses have been subtracted from revenues. This
figure is the aggregate result of all operating and financing activities of an
organization.
39
The various figures for the deposits, advances and net profits are obtained for the five
financial years from FY 2015 to FY 2019 respectively from the bank standalone balance
sheet and profits and loss statement.

Ratio analysis
Current ratio
This ratio is also known as ‘Working capital ratio ‘and is used for determining the short
term financial position of the firm. It is an indication of a company's ability to meet short-
term debt obligations; the higher the ratio, the more liquid the company is.
Current ratio is equal to current assets divided by current liabilities. If the current assets
of a company are more than twice the current liabilities, then that company is generally
considered to have good short-term financial strength.
42

Conclusion
On the basis of various techniques applied for the financial analysis of AXIS Bank we
can arrive at a conclusion that the financial position and overall performance of the bank
is satisfactory. Though the net profit of the bank has over the period but not in the same
pace as of expenses. But the bank has succeeded in maintaining a reasonable profitability
position.
The bank has succeeded in increasing its share capital also which has increased around
50% in the last 5 years. Individuals are the major shareholders. The major achievement of
the bank has been a tremendous increase in its deposits, which has always been its main
objective. Fixed and current deposits have also shown an increasing trend.
Equity shareholders are also enjoying an increasing trend in the return on their capital.
Though current assets and liabilities (current liquidity) of the bank is not so satisfactory
but bank has succeeded in maintaining a stable solvency position over the years. As far as
the ratio of external and internal equity is concerned, it is clear that bank has been using
more amount of external equity in the form of loans and borrowings than owner’s equity.
Bank’s investments are also showing an increasing trend. Due to increase in advances,
the interest received by the bank from such advances is proving to be the major source of
income for the bank.
