Executive Summary
The 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, as part of the RBI's
liberalization of the Indian Banking Industry in 1994. The bank was
incorporated in August 1994 in the name of 'HDFC Bank Limited', with its
registered office in Mumbai, India. HDFC Bank commenced operations as a
Scheduled Commercial Bank in January 1995.
My training period was of two months which started on with my orientation and
introduction program with my mentor Mr. Lalit Shrimali, and other staff members
of the department, followed by allotment of my topic for SIP (summer InternshipProgram) project which is ³A Study of market potential of saving account in
HDFC Bank.´
As a part of my training my first task in the organization was to study about the
different products of the HDFC Bank and to prepare questionnaire. Followed by
this my next task was to visit people and collect information about their saving
account. This activity was done to identify the factors which impact on the saving
account in the bank and the action required to be taken to increase the sale.
In the following project I tried to get maximum understanding of marketing so that
it helps me in upgrading of personality.

LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
The scope of study is limited due to the following reasons:
1) Time constraint - since the time span for the thesis is only two months so for
depth study and analysis will become a little difficult.
2) Sample size - the sample size of the study is only 200 which would not give a
Comprehensive result. Many important samples may not be considered at all. The
Conclusion of the study may not result to an accurate outcome due to the sample size
being small.
3) The Project is done only in Udaipur city so it is valid for this region only.
4) Inadequacy of sampling frame hence 100% probability sampling could not befollowed.
5) Probes were involved in collecting data from respondents. Hence there may be some
reliability issues.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
A Research Methodology defines the purpose of the research, how it proceeds, how to
measure progress and what constitute success with respect to the objectives determined
for carrying out the research study. Research methodology is a way to systematically
solve the research problem. It may be understood as a science of studying how research is
done scientifically. In it we study the various steps that are generally adopted by a
researcher in studying his research problem along with the logic behind them. It is
necessary for the researcher to know not only the research methods/techniques but also
the methodology. Researchers not only need to know how to develop certain indices or
tests, how to calculate the mean, the mode, the median or the standard deviation or chi-
square, how to apply particular research techniques, but they also need to know which of
these methods these methods or techniques, are relevant and which are not, and what
would they mean and indicate and why.

Sampling methods
Before an organization conducts primary research it has to be clear which respondents it wishesto interview. A company cannot possibly interview the whole population to get their opinions
and views. This simply would be to costly and unfeasible. A sample of the population is taken tohelp them conduct this research. To select this sample there are again different methods of
choosing your respondents, a mathematical approach called 'probability sampling' and a non-mathematical approach, simply called 'non-probability sampling'. Lets look at these in a little
more detail.
Probability Sampling Methods ± A mathematical chance of selecting
the respondent.
Simple Random Samples
With this method of sampling the potential people you want to interview are listed e.g. a group
of 100 are listed and a group of 20 may be selected from this list at random. The selection maybe done by computer.
Systematic samples
Out of the 100 people we talked about above, systematic sampling suggests that if we select the
5th person from the above list, then we would select every 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th etc. The patternis the every consecutive 5th. If the 6th person was selected then it would be every consecutive
6th.
Multi-Stage Samples
With this sampling process the respondents are chosen through a process of defined stages. For
example residents within Islington (London) may have been chosen for a survey through thefollowing process:
Throughout the UK the south east may have been selected at random, ( stage 1), within the UK
London is selected again at random (stage 2), Islington is selected as the borough (stage 3), thenpolling districts from Islington (stage 4) and then individuals from the electoral register (stage 5).
As demonstrated five stages were gone through before the final selection of respondents were
selected from the electoral register.
8/7/2019 mmm prject
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/mmm-prject 31/51
Non Probability Samples
Convenience Sampling
Where the researcher questions anyone who is available. This method is quick and cheap.
However we do not know how representative the sample is and how reliable the result.
Quota Sampling
Using this method the sample audience is made up of potential purchasers of your product. For example if you feel that your typical customers will be male between 18-23, female between 26-
30, then some of the respondents you interview should be made up of this group, i.e. a quota isgiven.
Dimensional Sampling
An extension to quota sampling. The researcher takes into account several characteristics e.g.gender, age income, residence education and ensures there is at least one person in the study thatrepresents that population. E.g. out of 10 people you may want to make sure that 2 people are
within a certain gender, two a certain age group who have an income rate between £25000 and£30000, this will again ensure the accuracy of the sample frame again.
To summaries there are two types of sampling frames - probability and non-probability, and
within these six types of sampling methods as discussed above.

Sampling is that part of statistical practice concerned with the selection
of an unbiased or random subset of individual observations within a
population of individuals intended to yield some knowledge about the
population of concern, especially for the purposes of making predictionsbased on statistical inference. Sampling is an important aspect of data
collection.
Researchers rarely survey the entire population for two reasons (Adèr,
Mellenbergh, & Hand, 2008): the cost is too high, and the population is
dynamic in that the individuals making up the population may change
over time. The three main advantages of sampling are that the cost islower, data collection is faster, and since the data set is smaller it is
possible to ensure homogeneity and to improve the accuracy and quality
of the data.
Each observation measures one or more properties (such as weight,
location, color) of observable bodies distinguished as independent
objects or individuals. In survey sampling, survey weights can be
applied to the data to adjust for the sample design. Results from
probability theory and statistical theory are employed to guide practice.
In business and medical research, sampling is widely used for gatheringinformation about a population.

The research methodology used in this project is described below in detail:
Research Plan: The research plan used is convenience research plan.
Convenience Research is that kind of research which is carried out according to theconvenience of the researcher. The research depends on the area and the convenience of
the researcher carrying out the research.
Convenience sampling is a non probability sampling technique where subjects are
selected because of convenient accessibility and proximity to the researcher.
In convenient sampling subjects are selected because they are easiest to recruit for the
study. Subjects are representative of the entire population.
Designing a research plan calls for decisions on the following:
y Data Collection
y Research instruments
y Sampling plan
y Contact methods
Data Collection: A study is based on the information that is embedded in it. The data for
this study is obtained from both primary data and secondary data.
Primary Data: Primary data is collected for the research needs at hand and a formal and
structures questionnaire has been prepared and is presented and filled from the concerned
respondents.
Secondary Data: It has been gathered from the internet, books, company literature and
company¶s past records etc. which has been tabulated and presented in the report.
Research Instrument: The main research instrument used in collecting the primary data
is the Questionnaire, a copy of which is attached in the annexure.
Sampling Design: Convenience sampling is used as the sampling plan.
Sampling Technique: I have used both Probability and Non Probability Techniques.
Sample Size: 50 respondents.

CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
CONCLUSIONS:
HDFC Bank, the banking arm of HDFC is expected to go on stream. The important facts
which we could conclude from our data regarding the buying behavior of individual are
that people give maximum importance to quality of service and convince which going in
for a saving account. The minimum balance to be maintain in the account is not of much
importance to the individuals as initially thought to be; in fact people give little
importance to this attribute while opening a saving account. Also the brand name of the
bank is of little consideration and in fact quality of service is what is considered to be the
single most important factor while opening a saving account.
Regarding the acceptance of HDFC Bank our data shows that though the Bank isconsidered to be an elite bank by the customers but the general perception among the
customer is as such as that it is an expensive and profit oriented bank and doesn¶t give
much importance to the customer benefits.
The project opportunities provided was market segmentation and identifying prospective
customers in potential geographical location and convincing them to open an account so
that new Business Opportunities of the bank can be explored. Through this project, it
could be concluded that people are not much aware about the various products of the
bank and many of them not interested to open an account at all.
Services was considered as unsought good which require hard core selling, but in
changing trend in income and people becoming financially literate, the demand for
banking sector is increasing day by day.
So, at last the conclusion is that there is tough competition ahead for the company from
its major competitors in the banking sector.
Last but not the least I would like to thank HDFC Bank for giving me an opportunity to
work in the field of Marketing. I hope the company finds my analysis relevant.
