ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
Business environment includes set of conditions or situation that affects business activities or
decision making. These conditions are broadly classified into internal environment and
external environment.
THE EXTERNAL ENVIRONMENT ANALYSIS
External environment include factors which are outside the control of the business
organization but it provide opportunities or pose threats. External environment is further
classified into two categories micro environment and macro environment.
1) Political Factor
Government and RBI policies affect the banking sector. Sometimes looking into the
political advantage of a particular party, the Government declares some measures to
their benefits like waiver of short-term agricultural loans, to attract the farmer’s
votes. By doing so the profits of the bank get affected.
FDI move to increase the limits to 49 percent from 26 percent.
The Union Budget 2009-10 extended the debt waiver scheme by six more months for
farmers owing more than 2 hectare of land The Union Budget 2008-09 allowed these
farmers 25% rebate on loan if they repay 75%of their overdue within stipulated period
of 30th June 2009.
2) Economic Factor
Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) reduced by 0.25% to 4.5% of net demand and time
liabilities (NDTL) to potentially inject primary liquidity of Rs. 170 billion; token
reduction in lending rates expected, given comfortable liquidity position and the
recent revisions in deposit rates and lending rates for certain products undertaken by
some Banks.
Benchmark Repo rate maintained at 8.0%; Reverse Repo and Marginal Standing
Facility (MSF) stand unchanged at 7.0% and 9.0%, respectively. Bank Rate also
maintained at 9.0%.
HDFC BANK
9 | P a g e
Following a 1% reduction in July 2012, Statutory Liquidity Ratio (SLR) kept
unchanged at 23% of NDTL.
The primary focus of monetary policy remains inflation control and anchoring of
inflation expectations, despite increasing risks to economic growth. The Reserve Bank
of India (RBI) highlighted that inflationary pressures and risks related to fiscal deficit
and current account deficit constrain it from providing a stronger monetary policy
response to boost economic growth. As policy measures to stimulate growth
materialize, monetary policy to reinforce the positive impact of such actions while
retaining a focus on managing inflation.
Guidance provided that liquidity management by the RBI would ensure adequate
credit flows to the productive sectors of the economy and appropriate responses to
shocks brought on by external developments.
3) Social Factor
HDFC announced its plans to make an entry into education sector. The group plans to focus
on small towns wherein it would either set up schools or take over weak performing boarding
schools. According to McKinsey Global Institute’s Bird of Gold report, the discretionary
spending on education is set to increase from 5% in 2005 to 6% in 2015. HDFC will foray
into this sector through a separate subsidiary. It is widely believed that many schools are
planning to set up model, which is profitable and scalable, as operating under trusts makes it
difficult to segregate profits. As a result, HDFC could look to adopt those schools that are
open to the ‘takeover model’. HDFC already has an educational loan unit – Credila Financial
Services – in which it owns 62.3% stake. Credila plans to boosts the distribution network and
customer base of HDFC Bank in order to expand and also lower the cost of funds. The
group’s likely entry into education sector could be beneficial in the long run.
HDFC Bank ,is partnering with the city’s municipal authorities to educate people about the
danger posed by plastic bags to the environment, and to offer recycle paper bags instead.The
bank reinforced the Kolkata Municipal Corporation(KMC) intiated anti-plastic awarness
drive by distributing recycled and eco-friendly paper bags to retailers and customers across
nine markets in the city.“Encourage citizens to use environment friendly and cost effective
paper bags as the best substitute.

4)Technological Factor
Productivity ratio of HDFC is increasing significantly over the years. Number of employees
of the group increased to 1,607 in FY2011, as compared to 797 in FY2010 and 727 in
FY2009. While, profit per employee increased significantly to $491,900, as compared to
$117,500 and $7,500 in FY2010 and FY2009 respectively. Administration cost per asset ratio
decline to 0.30% in FY2011, as compared to 0.49 in FY2010 and 0.76 in FY2009. Similarly,
cost to income ratio improved to 7.7% in FY2011 from 13.8% and 30.9% in FY2010 and
FY2009 respectively. Improving productivity would likely enhance the group’s profit margin.
ATM The latest developments in terms of technology in computer and
telecommunication have encouraged the bankers to change the concept of branch
banking to anywhere banking.
Credit card facility has encouraged an era of cashless society.
Today MasterCard and Visa card are the two most popular cards used world over.
Smartcards or debit cards to be used for making payments. These are also called as
electronic purse

great utility to its customers. For example SMS functions through simple text
messages sent from your mobile.

adopt it is the centralize banking platform through which a bank can control its entire
operation the adoption of core banking solution will help bank to roll out new product
and services

Earning per share reduces because company introduces equity share capital in the market
during the financial year as a result dividend per share also declines
CURRENT RATIO
Ideal current ratio with 2:1 (or) more is considered as satisfactory position of the firm.
Which indicate that current assets should be twice as compared to the current liabilities. So in
that organization the current ratio is very high that will not indicate a favourable position. As
it means that there is excessive investment in current assets is made. This will result in
decreasing in profitability due to blocking of large funds in working capital.

to the ability to pay its short term obligations as and when they become due. As a rule of
thumb quick ratio of 1:1 is considered satisfactory.

operating expenses on the one hand and sales on the other hand. Operating ratio

a firm. Depending on the concept, it will decide. Operating profit is the profit arising out of
business operations on.

company.

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS OF HDFC BANK
FIVE FORCE HIGH/ MEDIUM/ LOW
REMARK
Threat of new entrants Low For any new entrants permission should be granted from RBI, and it is not easy to have the permission. There was many political and legal issue. And the early investment was very high.
Bargaining power of customers
Medium Customer can switch to any other bank very easily if service was not good because switching cost is low. But most of time customers are having their account in most of the bank and they know that every bank provide similarly the same service.
Bargaining power of suppliers
Low In bank industry there is no such supplier.
Threat of substitutes High Because there are many public and private bank. And also the post office provide some of the services, many private firm provide easy loan scheme to attract the customers. People also started investing their money instead of saving them like stock market, mutual funds , property etc.
Degree of rivalry High There are large numbers of public and private bank and market growth rate was also high. The switching cost was also very low and the services provide by all the bank was same.

2) Competitive Profile Matrix (Based on Key Success factors)
HDFC Bank has revised its deposit rates. The rates have been changed for maturities ranging
from six months 17 days to five years. The bank is also offering a maximum of 8.75%
interest on its retail term deposits.
ICICI Bank, the largest private sector lender in the country, pared deposit rates by 50 basis
points. The revised rates are effective from Tuesday, the bank said on its website. The lender
has cut rates across maturities ranging from 91 days to less than five years. It now offers a
maximum 8.75% interest on retail term deposit compared to 9.25% earlier.
Axis Bank has also reduced its deposit rates by at least 25 basis points from Tuesday.
The moves hardly surprised the industry analysts as they have been expecting lenders to
reduce their deposit rates to protect dilution in their interest margins.
Last week, State Bank of India (SBI), the largest commercial bank in the country had pared
its deposit rates by 50-100 basis points. Analysts expect other state-run and private banks to
mirror this move.
The net interest margin of banks has been under stress as the increase in cost of deposits has
outpaced the rise in yield on advances in the past one year. As loan demand has remained
largely muted so far this year the pressure on the margins is expected to intensify further.
Note: The new rates are applicable on deposits up to Rs 1 cr.
Bank New Rates Effective Date
HDFC Bank 4.00 - 8.75 12-Sep-12
ICICI Bank 4.75 - 8.75 11-Sep-12

BCG MATRIX
The BCG matrix is a chart that had been created by Bruce Henderson for the Boston
Consulting Group in 1970 to help corporations with analyzing their business units or product
lines. This helps the company allocate resources and is used as an analytical tool in brand
marketing, product management, strategic management, and portfolio analysis.
HDFC Bank
HDFC BANK stands at star position in BCG matrix. As HDFC bank have the high market
growth and they also have high market share. There is a lot of growth potential for the
banking industry because of increasing disposable income of customers, increasing working
class, more volatility in other markets also increasing importance of savings and already
discussed almost 30% of the market is still untapped.

HDFC Insurances
In insurance sector HDFC’s most of the products are in star position. HDFC insurance
products have high market share and high growth rate. So we have lot of opportunity for
investment.
HDFC Mutual Funds

growth rate in mutual funds. This means we should only focus on profitable products and try
to investment on those products which are low market growth rate but perform well if proper
investment is theirs.

CONCLUSION
Banking is also now being regarded as a versatile financial planning tool. Research indicates
that Indians have four basic financial needs during their life asset accumulation (such as
buying a house or car), protecting their family, securing their children’s education, and
provision for their retirement. India being a country having a huge population of around one
billion people with only 32% of the banking population in India possessing banking the
country has a vast potential, which has been left untapped till now.
With this prospect HDFC is continuously working in this direction, but there are several
competitors already in the market with the similar strategy. This project concludes that with
the changing economical and political scenario bank sector faces many ups and downs but in
order to maintain the position HDFC needs to follow some differentiating strategy. Because it
has a very fine line of difference with its competitor ICICI and can outshine HDFC.
The project has given the clear cut vision as to how to differentiate its strategy from other
competitors an how to use the strength and convert the weakness of others as an opportunity.
