8. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The primary goal of company would be to provide tailor made products and
services to the customer and to retain them into the organization by providing
them with higher levels of satisfaction. But this becomes a though field work for
the company.
Here a study has been undertaken at IBHFL assessing the satisfaction levels of
the clients of Indiabulls.
The need for this research is to emphasis the expectation of clients of IBHFL and
how the company is performing is contrast to the expectation and able to provide
satisfaction.
Every industry in India has grown over the last 10 years except this one,
whatever retail participation exists is coming from bigger cities such as Mumbai
and Delhi. The services have not reach bottom of pyramid.
So, this study becomes even more important to help IBHFL know the satisfaction
level of their customers. It will also help Indiabulls to focus on what aspects they
lag behind so that they can provide better services to their customer and satisfy
them were gathered the data from various departments like Marketing
department, Finance & Accounts department, HR department etc.
For understanding customer satisfaction level and their expectation a survey of
50 clients of Indiabulls is done using random sampling. The survey reveals that
the overall customer satisfaction level is above average. The study concludes
with some recommendation.

11. 1.1 INDUSTRY PROFILE
1.1.1 NON-BANKING FINANCIAL COMPANIES (NBFC)
Non-banking financial companies are financial institutions that provide banking
services, but do not hold a banking license. These institutions are not allowed to
take deposits from the public. All operations of these institutions are still covered
under banking regulations.
NBFCs do gather all sorts of banking services, such as loans and credit facilities,
retirement planning, money markets, and merger activities. The number of
NBFS’s has expanded greatly in the last several years as venture capital
companies, retail and industrial companies have entered the lending business.
NBFC have rapidly emerged as an important segment of the Indian financial
system. Moreover, NBFCs assume significance in the small business segment
as they primarily cater to the credit requirements of the unorganized sector such
as wholesale & retail traders, small-scale industries and small borrowers at the
local level. NBFC is a heterogeneous group of financial institutions, performing a
wide range of activities like hire-purchase finance, vehicle financing, equipment
lease finance, personal loans, working capital loans, consumer loans, housing
loans, loans against shares and investment, etc.
NBFCs are broadly divided into three categories namely
(i) NBFCs accepting deposits from banks (NBFC-D)
(ii) NBFCs not accepting/holding public deposits (NBFC-ND)
(iii) Core investment companies
11

12. NON-BANKING FINANCIAL INSTITUTION
A nonbank financial institution (NBFI) is interacts with banks and governments, a
financial institution that does not have a full banking license and cannot accept
deposits from the public. However, NBFIs do facilitate alternative financial
services, such as investment risk pooling, financial consulting, brokering, money
transmission, and check cashing. NBFIs are a source of consumer credit (along
with licensed banks). Examples of nonbank financial institutions include
insurance firms, venture capitalists, currency exchanges, some microloan
organizations, and pawn shops. These non-bank financial institutions provide
services that are not necessarily suited to banks, serve as competition to banks,
and specialize in sectors or groups.
Risk pooling institutions
Insurance companies underwrite economic risks associated with death, illness,
damage to or loss of property, and other risk of loss. Under this
system, insurance companies come together to form a pool, which can provide
protection to insurance companies against catastrophic risks such as floods,
earthquakes etc. They provide a contingent promise of economic protection in
the case of loss. There are two main types of insurance companies: life
insurance and general insurance. General insurance tends to be short-term,
while life insurance is a longer contract, ending at the death of the insured. Both
types of insurance, life and property, are available to all sectors of the
community. Because of the nature of the insurance industry (companies must
access a plethora of information to assess the risk in each individual case),
insurance companies enjoy a high level of information efficiency.
Life insurance companies insure against economic loss of the insured’s
premature death. The insured will pay a fixed sum as an insurance premium
every term. Because the probability of death increases with age while premiums
12

13. remain constant, the insured overpays in the earlier stages and underpays in the
later years. The overpayment in the early years of the agreement is the cash
value of the insurance policy.
General insurance is further divided into two categories: market and social
insurance. Social insurance is against the risk of loss of income due to sudden
unemployment, disability, illness, and natural disasters. Because of the
unpredictability of these risks, the ease at which the insured can hide pertinent
information from the insurer, and the presence of moral hazard, private insurance
companies frequently do not provide social insurance, a gap in the insurance
industry which government usually fills. Social insurance is more prevalent in
industrialized Western societies where family networks and other organic social
support groups are not as prevalent.
Market insurance is privatized insurance for damage or loss of property. General
insurance companies take a single premium payment. In return, the companies
will make a specified payment contingent on the event that it is being insured
against. Examples include theft, fire, damage, natural disaster, etc.
Contractual savings institutions
Contractual savings institutions provide the opportunity for individuals to invest in
collective
investment
vehicles
in
a
fiduciary
rather
than
a
principle
role.Contractual savings institutions include national provident funds, life
insurance companies, private pension funds, and funded social pension
insurance systems. They have long-term liabilities and stable cash flows and are
therefore ideal providers of term finance, not only to government and industry,
but also to municipal authorities and the housing sector. The two most popular
examples of contractual savings institutions are mutual funds and private pension
plans.
13

14. The two main types of mutual funds are open-end and closed-end funds. Openend funds generate new investments by allowing the public buy new shares at
any time. Shareholders can liquidate their shares by selling them back to the
open-end fund at the net asset value. Closed-end funds issue a fixed number of
shares in an IPO. The shareholders capitalize on the value of their assets by
selling their shares in a stock exchange.
Pension funds are mutual funds that limit the investor’s ability to access their
investment until after a certain date. In return, pension funds are granted large
tax breaks in order to incentivize the working public to set aside a percentage of
their current income for a later date when they are no longer amongst labour.

15. 1.1.2 NBFC UNDER GOVERNMENT REGULATION
The working and operations of NBFCs are regulated by the Reserve Bank of
India (RBI)within the framework of the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934 (Chapter
III B) and the directions issued by it under the Act. As per the RBI Act, a 'nonbanking financial company' is defined as:1. A financial institution which is a company.
2. A non-banking institution which is a company and which has as its principal
business the receiving of deposits, under any scheme or arrangement or in
any other manner, or lending in any manner.
3. Such other non-banking institution or class of such institutions, as the bank
may, with the previous approval of the Central Government and by
notification in the Official Gazette, specify.
Under the Act, it is mandatory for a NBFC to get itself registered with the RBI as
a deposit taking company. This registration authorizes it to conduct its business
as an NBFC. For the registration with the RBI, a company incorporated under
the Companies Act, 1956 and desirous of commencing business of non-banking
financial institution, should have a minimum net owned fund (NOF) of Rs 25 lakh
(raised to Rs 200 lakh w.e.f April 21, 1999). The term 'NOF' means, owned funds
(paid-up capital and free reserves, minus accumulated losses, deferred revenue
expenditure and other intangible assets) less, (i) investments in shares of
subsidiaries/companies in the same group/ all other NBFCs; and (ii) the book
value of debentures/bonds/ outstanding loans and advances, including hirepurchase and lease finance made to, and deposits with, subsidiaries/ companies
in the same group, in excess of 10% of the owned funds.
15

16. The registration process involves submission of an application by the company in
the prescribed format along with the necessary documents for RBI's
consideration. If the bank is satisfied that the conditions enumerated in the RBI
Act, 1934 are fulfilled, it issues a 'Certificate of Registration' to the company. Only
those NBFCs holding a valid Certificate of Registration can accept/hold public
deposits. The NBFCs accepting public deposits should comply with the NonBanking Financial Companies Acceptance of Public Deposits (Reserve Bank)
Directions, 1998, as issued by the bank. Some of the important regulations
relating to acceptance of deposits by the NBFCs are:-
They are allowed to accept/renew public deposits for a minimum period of
12 months and maximum period of 60 months.
They cannot accept deposits repayable on demand.
They cannot offer interest rates higher than the ceiling rate prescribed by
RBI from time to time.
They cannot offer gifts/incentives or any other additional benefit to the
depositors.
They should have minimum investment grade credit rating.
Their deposits are not insured.
The repayment of deposits by NBFCs is not guaranteed by RBI.
16

17. 1.1.3THE TYPES OF NBFCS REGISTERED WITH THE RBI
A. Equipment leasing company: - is any financial institution whose principal
business is that of leasing equipment’s or financing of such an activity.
B. Hire-purchase Company: - is any financial intermediary whose principal
business relates to hire purchase transactions or financing of such
transactions.
C. Loan company:- means any financial institution whose principal business
is that of providing finance, whether by making loans or advances or
otherwise for any activity other than its own.
D. Investment Company: - is any financial intermediary whose principal
business is that of buying and selling of securities.
Now, these NBFCs have been reclassified into three categories:
Asset Finance Company (AFC)
Investment Company (IC)
Loan Company (LC)
Under this classification, 'AFC' is defined as a financial institution whose principal
business is that of financing the physical assets which support various
productive/economic activities in the country.
17

18. 1.2 HOME LOAN
A home mortgage is one of the most common forms of debt, and it is also one of
the most advised. Mortgage loans come with lower interest rates than almost any
other kind of debt an individual consumer can find. Real estate is currently one of
the fastest growing sectors in India. Banking sector is also registering profitable
business since the last few decades, with the growth of real estate. Majority of
the banks are also offering easy home loans at attractive rates to their
customers. Now that getting a home loan is so easy, it seems everyone can fulfill
his / her long cherished dreams of purchasing lands, building their houses and
expanding their homes. Different types of home loans are tailored to suit the
heterogeneous requirements of the customers. The description of some of the
most common types of home loans is given below.
Types Of Home Loans
Home Purchase Loans.
Home Improvement Loans
Home Construction Loan
Home Extension Loans.
Home Conversion Loan
Land Purchase Loans
Bridge Loans
Balance Transfer Loans

19. 1.3 INDUSTRY STRUCTURE
The Reserve Bank of India is entrusted with the responsibility of regulating and
supervising the Non-Banking Financial Companies by virtue of powers vested in
Chapter III B of the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934. The regulatory and
supervisory objective is to:
1. Ensure healthy growth of the financial companies;
2. Ensure that these companies function as a part of the financial system within
the policy framework, in such a manner that their existence and functioning do
not lead to systemic aberrations; and that
3. The quality of surveillance and supervision exercised by the Bank over the
NBFCs is sustained by keeping pace with the developments that take place in
this sector of the financial system.
19

20. 1.4 ROLE IN FINANCIAL SYSTEM
The Reserve Bank of India has recognized the need to introduce NBFIs
supplement banks in providing financial services to individuals and firms. They
can provide competition for banks in the provision of these services. While banks
may offer a set of financial services as a package deal, NBFIs unbundle these
services, tailoring their services to particular groups. Additionally, individual
NBFIs may specialize in a particular sector, gaining an informational advantage.
By this unbundling, targeting, and specializing, NBFIs promote competition within
the financial services industry.
There are different categories of companies
1. Loan companies
2. Investment companies
3. Hire purchase finance companies
4. Equipment Leasing companies
5. Mutual Benefit Financial Companies
6. Housing Finance Company
7. Residuary Non-Banking companies
Non-bank financial institutions can exacerbate the fragility of the financial system.
While not all NBFIs are lightly regulated, the NBFIs that comprise the shadow
banking system are. In the run up to the recent global financial crisis, institutions
such as hedge funds and structured investment vehicles were largely overlooked
by regulators, who focused NBFI supervision on pension funds and insurance
companies. If a large share of the financial system is in NBFIs that operate
largely unsupervised by government regulators and anybody else, it can put the
stability of the entire system at risk. Weaknesses in NBFI regulation can fuel a
credit bubble and asset overpricing, followed by asset price collapse and loan
defaults.
20

21. The micro-financing sector is just beginning to pick up pace and has a suitable
role for NBFCs. Role in deposit mobilization and credit extension can hardly be
over-emphasized. Given India's large unorganized markets, there is a huge
demand for unsecured credit in areas where banks do not have adequate reach.
NBFCs fill this gap. Specializing in funding sectors where there is a credit gap.
In the past decade, NBFCs have played an important role in the expansion of the
consumer durables, housing and transport sectors.
The industry is now witnessing a paradigm shift, as competition is eating into the
retail finance space, which has been traditionally dominated by NBFCs. As the
traditional boundaries between different financial intermediaries blur, market
participants are merging to increase their size and reach, while distributing risk
over the large base in an attempt to survive.
21

22. 1.5FUTURE PROSPECTS OF NBFC SECTOR
NBFCs have been playing a very important role both from the macro economic
Perspective and the structure of the Indian financial system. NBFCs are the
perfect or even better alternatives to the conventional Banks for meeting various
financial requirements of a business enterprise. They offer quick and efficient
services without making one to go through the complex rigmarole of conventional
banking formalities. However to survive and to constantly grow, NBFCs have to
focus on their core strengths. while improving on weaknesses. They will have to
be very dynamic and constantly. Endeavor to search for new products and
services in order to survive in this ever competitive financial market.
Since NBFCs have been kept outside the purview of SARFAESI Act, a reform in
this area is quite urgently needed. A suitable legislative amendment extending
the operation of the said Act to NBFCs too would go a long way in fortifying the
faith of the investors and which in turn would greatly contribute to the growth of
this Sector. The coming years will be very crucial for NBFCs and only those who
will be able to face the challenge and prove themselves by standing the test of
time will survive in the long run.
22

23. NON-BANK INTEGRATION AND SUPERVISORY INTEGRATION
The banking, securities, and insurance markets have become increasingly
integrated, with linkages across the markets rapidly increasing. In response, one
of the most notable developments in financial sector regulation in the past 20
years has been a shift from the traditional sector-by-sector approach to
supervision (with separate supervisors for banks, securities markets, and
insurance companies) toward a greater cross-sector integration of financial
supervision. This had an important impact on the practice of supervision and
regulation around the globe.
Three broad models are being used around the world: a three-pillar or “sectoral”
model (banking, insurance, and securities); a two-pillar or “twin peak” model
(prudential and business conduct); and an integrated model (all types of
supervision under one roof). One of the arguably most remarkable developments
of the past 10 years, confirmed by the World Bank’s Bank Regulation and
Supervision Survey, has been a trend from the three-pillar model toward either
the two-pillar model or the integrated model. In a recent study, Melecky and
Podpiera (2012) examined the drivers of supervisory structures for prudential and
business conduct supervision over the past decade in 98 countries, finding
among other things that countries advancing to a higher stage of economic
development tend to integrate their supervisory structures, small open
economies tend to opt for more integrated supervisory structures, financial
deepening makes countries integrate supervision progressively more, and the
lobbying power of the concentrated and highly profitable banking sector acts as a
negative force against business conduct integration
23

24. 1.6 CUSTOMER SATISFACTION:
Customer satisfaction can help business to achieve a sustainable competitive
advantage. It about understands the way a customer feels after purchasing a
product or service and, in particular, whether or not that product or service met
the customer’s expectations.
Customers
primarily
form
their
expectations
through
past
purchasing
experiences, word-of-mouth from family, friends and colleagues and information
delivered through marketing activities, such as advertising or public relations. If
the customer’s expectation isn’t met, they will be dissatisfied and it’s very likely
they will tell others about their experience.
WHY CUSTOMER SATISFACTION IS IMPORTANT
Don’t underestimate the value of customer satisfaction. It’s becoming an
important area of competition.
A high level of satisfaction can deliver many benefits, including:
Loyalty: a highly satisfied customer is a loyal customer.
Repeat purchase: a highly satisfied customer buys more products.
Referrals: a highly satisfied customer tells their family and friends about
the product or service.
Retention: a highly satisfied customer is less likely to switch brands.
Reduced costs: a highly satisfied customer costs less to serve than a
new customer.
Premium prices: a highly satisfied customer is willing to pay more for the
product or service.
24

25. 1.7CUSTOMER SATISFACTION RESEARCH
Satisfaction surveys are an important method for collecting information about
how your customers think and feel about your brand, product or service.
A satisfaction survey can help you to understand the expectations of your
customers, determine whether your customers believe you are meeting those
expectations, identify new customer requirements or trends in the market and
determine what areas of your business need investment.
A good customer satisfaction survey will also help you to understand the causes
of dissatisfaction among your customers. Many businesses systematically
measure customer satisfaction through independent surveys, feedback forms,
mystery shopping and focus groups. Some third party surveys also compare the
customer satisfaction of major competitors, which allows companies to
benchmark themselves in their relevant sector.
Measuring customer satisfaction doesn’t have to be expensive. It can be as
simple as preparing a short feedback form or conducting a brief telephone
interview that asks the customer to rate the product or service on a number of
criteria.
INDICATORS OF CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
An important indicator of customer satisfaction is the customer retention rate. To
calculate our customer retention rate, we have needed to capture data about the
total number of customers and the number of customers switching brands. If we
can track this information over time, will be able to see whether you are
improving your customer retention and satisfaction.
25

26. 1.8 FACTORS INFLUENCING PERCEPTION
Perception is the process by which an individual selects, organizes, and
interprets information inputs to create a meaningful picture the world. Perception
depends not only on the physical stimuli, but also on the stimuli’s relation to the
surrounding field and on conditions within the individual. The key point is that
perception can vary widely among individuals exposed to the same reality. One
person might perceive a fast-talking salesperson an aggressive and insincere
another, as intelligent and helpful.
Factors that influence perception:
Factors in the perceiver
Attitudes
Motives
Interests
Experience
Expectations
Factors in the situation
Time
Work setting
Social setting
Factors in the target
Motion
Size
Background
Proximity
Similarity
