Introduction

Banking Industry in India has travelled a long path to assume its present status. It has undergone a major structural transformation after the independence including the assumption of social banking. The success in transformation has been achieved by overcoming hurdles and impediments, stresses and strains. Thus, the development in the banking industry covers the activities of money lenders with their limited resources and of large scale operations by banks with huge resources and diversified activities.

The earliest banking system played a significant role till the Mughal period. Their importance is reduced during the British period as they could not make much use of their services on account of difference in language and style. In order to meet their financial requirements and banking assistance, the English agency houses started their own banking business in Calcutta and Bombay. This was the beginning of the modern banking system in India. So, the history of modern banking in India dates back to the last quarter of 18th Century. The earliest European Bank was started by the English agency houses along with their trading activities in 1710 in the name of Bank of Hindustan. This was followed by setting up of the Bengal Bank in 1984, General Bank of India in 1786 etc. However, all these banks failed sooner or later due to various reasons.

ESTABLISHMENT OF RESERVE BANK OF INDIA

The Hilton Young Commission in 1926 recommended the establishment of a separate bank in the country known as Reserve Bank of India. So a bill was introduced in the Legislative Assembly in 1933 which led to the establishment of Reserve Bank in 1935. After the establishment of Reserve Bank of India, the Imperial Bank was authorized to function as a sole

agent of the Reserve Bank of India at all places in India where the Reserve Bank had no branches.

GROWTH POTENTIALS FOR INDIAN BANKING SYSTEM

Banking sector has remained the backbone of Indian economy since independence. After the reformative measures of 1991, this industry has been undergoing major changes. Advent of hi- tech communication and information technology has facilitated growth in Internet banking. Various other modern services are provided by the banks these days like, ATM services, Mobile banking, plastic money, paytm etc. these services has improved the banking system to a great extent. Also, now a days, along with the consumer durable goods, there is marketing of financial products, like mutual funds, investment policies and insurance policies as well. This is possible due to the modern banking practices. And also, various initiatives are taken by the government of India, in the regard of financial inclusion. Various schemes are launched by the government to promote financial inclusion like Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana, with a slogan of Mera khata, Bhagya Vidhata, as this scheme is providing the option of zero balance account to its clients. This was done to cover the unbanked population as most of the people, especially financial illiterate people remain unbanked just because of lack of financial knowledge, so the government id providing the financial education to the clients through various programs. And to promote financial inclusion, various banks are appointing its business facilitators and business correspondents by following the BCBF model initiated by RBI. In this model, various banking services and functions are performed by the facilitators or correspondents appointed by the banks. Here, in this model, Business facilitators acts as a agent for its principle bank. So by following these initiatives, banking system has improved to the great extent and also the coverage of banking has increased to a great extent.

Internet banking is changing the banking industry and is having the major effects on banking relationships. Banking is now no longer confined to the branches were one has to approach the branch in person, to withdraw cash or deposit a cheque or request a statement of accounts. In true Internet banking, any inquiry or transaction is processed online without any reference to

Volume 8, Issue 9, 2018 283 https://pramanaresearch.org/ Pramana Research Journal ISSN NO: 2249-2976

the branch (anywhere banking) at any time. Providing Internet banking is increasingly becoming a "need to have" than a "nice to have" service. The net banking, thus, now is more of a norm rather than an exception in many developed countries due to the fact that it is the cheapest way of providing banking services
