Executive Summary
This Report is an attempt to provide a detailed analysis of the process
to get a home loan and the requirements to get a loan in ICICI Bank.
In my complete student internship program I met more than 40
customers and promoted ICICI Bank home loan products. During this
student internship program I came to know that most of the people r
showing to take a home loan but they are so confused what the necessary
requirements to get a loan.
However, my survery suggests that maximum number of people are
interested to take a loan but all are not aware of the products and the
process.. Employees and Business people are already taken home loans to
meet their financial requirements to construct a home ..
In my survey I found that 80% of people do not know how to get a
loan in a bank
Finally, creating awareness is very important to get good profits to the
company as well as to build good brand image in the minds of customers.

INDIAN BANKING SYSTEM

BANKS IN INDIA
India has a well developed banking system. Most of the banks in India
were founded by Indian entrepreneurs and visionaries in the preindependence era to provide financial assistance to traders, agriculturists and
budding Indian industrialists. Indian banks have played a significant role in
the development of Indian economy by inculcating the habit of saving in
Indians and by lending finance to Indian industry.
The commercial banking structure in India consists of: Scheduled
Commercial Banks and Unscheduled Banks. Scheduled commercial Banks
constitute those banks, which have been included in the Second Schedule of
Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Act, 1934.
RBI includes only those banks in this schedule, which satisfy the
criteria

laid

down

vide

section

42

(6)

(a)

of

the

Act.

Indian banks can be broadly classified into nationalized banks/public sector

banks, private banks and foreign banks.

FOREIGN BANKS IN INDIA

Foreign banks have brought latest technology and latest banking
practices in India. They have helped made Indian Banking system more
competitive and efficient. Government has come up with a road map for
expansion of foreign banks in India.
8

The road map has two phases. During the first phase between March
2005 and March 2009, foreign banks may establish a presence by way of
setting up a wholly owned subsidiary (WOS) or conversion of existing
branches into a WOS. The second phase will commence in April 2009 after a
review of the experience gained after due consultation with all the stake
holders in the banking sector. The review would examine issues concerning
extension of national treatment to WOS, dilution of stake and permitting
mergers/acquisitions of any private sector banks in India by a foreignbank.
Major foreign banks in India are:

ABN-AMRO Bank

Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank Ltd.

American Express Bank Ltd

BNP Paribas

Citibank

DBS Bank Ltd

Deutsche Bank

HSBC Ltd

Standard Chartered Bank

Nationalized Banks in India

Banking System in India is dominated by nationalized banks. The
nationalization of banks in India took place in 1969 by Mrs. Indira Gandhi
the then prime minister. The major objective behind nationalization was to
spread banking infrastructure in rural areas and make available cheap
finance to Indian farmers. Fourteen banks were nationalized in 1969. These
Banks

were

Before 1969, State Bank of India (SBI) was the only public sector bank in
India. SBI was nationalized in 1955 under the SBI Act of 1955.

The second phase of nationalization of Indian banks took place in the

year 1980. Seven more banks were nationalized with deposits over
200crores.

List of Public Sector Banks in India is as follows:

Allahabad Bank

Andhra Bank

Bank of Baroda

Bank of India

Bank of Maharashtra

Canara Bank

Central Bank of India

Corporation Bank

Dena Bank

United Bank of India

Vijaya Bank .

Private Banks in India

All the banks in India were earlier private banks. They were founded in
the pre-independence era to cater to the banking needs of the people. But
after nationalization of banks in 1969 public sector banks came to occupy
dominant role in the banking structure. Private sector banking in India
received a filip in 1994 when Reserve Bank of India encouraged setting up
of private banks as part of its policy of liberalization of the Indian Banking
Industry. Housing Development Finance Corporation Limited (HDFC) was
amongst the first to receive an 'in principle' approval from the Reserve Bank
of India (RBI) to set up a bank in the private sector.
Private banks have played a major role in the development of Indian
banking industry. They have made banking more efficient and customer
friendly. In the process they have jolted public sector banks out of
complacency

and

forced

them

to

become

more

competitive.

Major private banks in India are:

Bank of Rajasthan

12

Bharat Overseas Bank

Catholic Syrian Bank

Centurion Bank of Punjab

Dhanalakshmi Bank

Federal Bank

HDFC Bank

ICICI Bank

IDBI Bank

IndusInd Bank

ING Vysya Bank

Jammu & Kashmir Bank

Karnataka Bank

Karur Vysya Bank

Kotak Mahindra Bank

SBI Commercial and International Bank

South Indian Bank

United Western Bank

UTI Bank
YES Bank

If there is one industry that has the stigma of being old and boring, it
would have to be banking; however, a global trend of deregulation has
opened up many new businesses to the banks. Coupling that with
technological developments like Internet banking and ATMs, the banking
industry is obviously trying its hardest to shed its lackluster image.

COMPANY PROFILE
ICICI Bank is India's second-largest bank with total assets of about
Rs.1,676.59 bn(US$ 38.5 bn) at March 31, 2005 and profit after tax of Rs.
20.05 bn(US$ 461 mn) for the year ended March 31, 2005 (Rs. 16.37
bn(US$ 376 mn) in fiscal 2004). ICICI Bank has a network of about 573
branches and extension counters and over 2,000 ATMs. ICICI Bank offers a
wide range of banking products and financial services to corporate and retail
customers through a variety of delivery channels and through its specialised
subsidiaries and affiliates in the areas of investment banking, life and nonlife insurance, venture capital and asset management. ICICI Bank set up its
international banking group in fiscal 2002 to cater to the cross border needs
of clients and leverage on its domestic banking strengths to offer products
internationally. ICICI Bank currently has subsidiaries in the United
Kingdom, Canada and Russia, branches in Singapore and Bahrain and
representative offices in the United States, China, United Arab Emirates,
Bangladesh and South Africa.
ICICI Bank's equity shares are listed in India on the Bombay Stock
Exchange and the National Stock Exchange of India Limited and its
American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) are listed on the New York Stock
Exchange (NYSE).

15

ICICI Bank was originally promoted in 1994 by ICICI Limited, an

Indian financial institution, and was its wholly-owned subsidiary. ICICI's
shareholding in ICICI Bank was reduced to 46% through a public offering of
shares in India in fiscal 1998, an equity offering in the form of ADRs listed
on the NYSE in fiscal 2000, ICICI Bank's acquisition of Bank of Madura
Limited in an all-stock amalgamation in fiscal 2001, and secondary market
sales by ICICI to institutional investors in fiscal 2001 and fiscal 2002.
ICICI was formed in 1955 at the initiative of the World Bank, the
Government of India and representatives of Indian industry. The principal
objective was to create a development financial institution for providing
medium-term and long-term project financing to Indian businesses.
In the 1990s, ICICI transformed its business from a development
financial institution offering only project finance to a diversified financial
services group offering a wide variety of products and services, both directly
and through a number of subsidiaries and affiliates like ICICI Bank. In 1999,
ICICI become the first Indian company and the first bank or financial
institution from non-Japan Asia to be listed on the NYSE.
After consideration of various corporate structuring alternatives in the
context of the emerging competitive scenario in the Indian banking industry,
and the move towards universal banking, the managements of ICICI and
ICICI Bank formed the view that the merger of ICICI with ICICI Bank
would be the optimal strategic alternative for both entities, and would create
the optimal legal structure for the ICICI group's universal banking strategy.

16

The merger would enhance value for ICICI shareholders through the
merged entity's access to low-cost deposits, greater opportunities for earning
fee-based income and the ability to participate in the payments system and
provide transaction-banking services.

The merger would enhance value for ICICI Bank shareholders through
a large capital base and scale of operations, seamless access to ICICI's strong
corporate relationships built up over five decades, entry into new business
segments, higher market share in various business segments, particularly
fee-based services, and access to the vast talent pool of ICICI and its
subsidiaries. In October 2001, the Boards of Directors of ICICI and ICICI
Bank approved the merger of ICICI and two of its wholly-owned retail
finance subsidiaries, ICICI Personal Financial Services Limited and ICICI
Capital Services Limited, with ICICI Bank. The merger was approved by
shareholders of ICICI and ICICI Bank in January 2002, by the High Court of
Gujarat at Ahmedabad in March 2002, and by the High Court of Judicature
at Mumbai and the Reserve Bank of India in April 2002. Consequent to the
merger, the ICICI group's financing and banking operations, both wholesale
and retail, have been integrated in a single entity.

*Free float holding excludes all promoter holdings, strategic

investments and cross holdings among

public sector entities.

Repayment capacity takes into consideration factors such as income, age,

A number of factors are taken into account when assessing your

additional income shall be included to enhance your loan
amount. Incidentally, if there are any co-owners they must

considered for sanctioning the loan on your combined
income? The disbursement of the loan, however, will be done
only after you submit proof of your marriage.
Providing additional security like bonds, fixed deposits and
LIC policies may also help to enhance eligibility.

While there is no need for a guarantor, it could be that having one might
enhance your credibility with us. If so, our loan officer would provide you
with the necessary details.
The final amount to be sanctioned will depend on your repayment capacity.
However, what you ultimately are entitled to will have to conform within the
limits fixed for each loan.

charges and stamp duty costs are included.

What is the repayment tenure?

Repayment tenure is the tenure for the number of year for which the
loan gets sanctioned. We offer you a wide range of options for the tenure of
the loan. You can take a home loan for up to 25 years provided you do not
reach the age of 65 years or retire within that period
How is the loan repaid?
All loan repayments are done via equated monthly installments (EMI).

What is an EMI?
An EMI refers to an equated monthly installment. It is a fixed amount
which you pay every month towards your loan. It comprises of both,
principal repayment and interest payment.

When does the repayment start?

EMI payments start from the month following the month in which the
full disbursement has been made.

How is the EMI paid?

43

The EMI is to be paid every month through post-dated cheques (PDCs)

or Electronic Clearing System (ECS)*. If you are opting for PDCs, then
you will have to provide 36 PDCs upfront. The PDCs are to be dated on the
1st of every month. However, if you receive your salary a few days later, we
provide the flexibility of dating the cheques for the 10th of the month. In
case you have an ICICI Savings account you can also go in for the facility of
Auto Debit.
* ECS facility is available in selected cities only.

What if a PDC bounces?

In the case of a bounced cheque or delayed payment, charges and
outstanding dues will be charged as per the prevailing company policy. You
can replace old PDCs with new ones within 5 - 7 working days.

What is pre-EMI interest?

44

In the case of part disbursement of the loan, monthly interest is payable

only on the disbursed amount. This interest is called pre-EMI interest
(PEMI) and is payable monthly till the final disbursement is made, after
which the EMIs would commence.

When do I pay PEMIs?

The first PEMI is payable by cheque by the end of the month in which the
disbursement is made and each subsequent PEMI at the end of every month
till the commencement of EMI. In case you have an ICICI Savings account
you can also go in for the facility of Auto Debit.
