 Executive Summary

Against the milieu of rapid urbanization and a changing socio-economic scenario, the

demand for housing has grown explosively. The importance of the housing sector in the

economy can be illustrated by a few key statistics. According to the National Building

Organization (NBO), the total demand for housing is estimated at 2 million units per year

and the total housing shortfall is estimated to be 19.4 million units, of which 12.76

million units is from rural areas and 6.64 million units from urban areas. The housing

industry is the second largest employment generator in the country. It is estimated that

the budgeted 2 million units would lead to the creation of an additional 10 million man-

years of direct employment and another 15 million man-years of indirect employment.

A year equates a century, knowledge compresses time and the information technology

sweeps the world, gathering momentum with each new application, soaring towards fresh

goal, rapidly opening vistas hitherto unknown. Here we are, in the 21st century….Years

that catapults us towards new challenges at every stage of endeavor. It gives us good

reason for aiming high.

Keeping the above philosophy in mind, this project is carried out with an objective to

identify the basic needs of the applicants and the process of Home Loans in ICICI Bank

Ltd.

The various areas covered in the report are:

6
  Business Process of Home loans

 Types of Appraisal

 Property Documentation

 Know your customer compliances

 Repayment Track Record lending

The final outcome of the report is to find out the number of the applicants who have

applied for bank loans in the month of June and the analysis of the population applying

for Home Loans through the sample size 40.

The report includes the various products that are introduced by the bank such as Home

Loans, Loan against property, Land Loan, Property OD, Lease Rental Discounting,

Balance Transfer, etc. It consists of questionnaire which helped to analyze the final

outcome of the report.

 Centralized Call Centers covering all major states and cities

 Leveraging corporate relationships

 Cross sell initiatives: leveraging customer centric data warehouse infrastructure.

Polarization – Future Scenario

 Weak HFI with high cost of funds & poor system would end up as DSA sourcing

business in the market.

 HFIs with low cost of funds but poor system may turn out to be buyers of MBS

 HFI with good systems in place but with high cost of funds need to look at

Securitization.

 HFIs with Low cost funds and good systems would be the major players.

 Low margins & High delinquency can increase the lending rate to

cover the cost of operations.

 Can force the HFIs to re-look at its business model.

Questionnaire

Other than these primary and secondary sources the study of various cases of the
applicants by going through the files guided to make an analysis and findings regarding
the status of Home Loans in the current scenario. Even by assisting the Credit Processing
Analyst, the analysis and findings were approved by them.

Sample Design:

The data collected from the questionnaire is of sample size 40.

The questionnaires have been filled by the customers through Direct Marketing Agencies
of ICICI Bank Ltd. and their Direct Sales Agent.
The questionnaires were distributed equally among 4 DMAs equally and the response
collected through them was of great use.

97
Analysis:

In last 10 years the rate of growth in the number of applicants have been at a faster pace
because the individuals have vast knowledge about the benefits of Home Loans.
Year No. of Applicants
2002-03 7,73,562
2003-04 9,65,291
2004-05 13,42,097
2005-06 15,27,945
2006-07 17,95,048
2007-08 19,84,164

(These figures are of a particular state)

Secondly, the applicants applying for Home Loans were of young age as compared to
past 10 years. Then the applicants ranging above 45 years were more in number applying
but now there are applicants of even 25-30 years. The tenure to repay the loan has also
decreased because of the increase in Income Obligation ratio.

But since last 1-2 years there is a stable percentage of individuals applying for it because
of the increase in the rate of interest and strict norms of RBI. They are as follows:
a) Rate of Interest will be less for people in minority.
b) Applicants applying for more than 50 lacs who are High Net Individuals (HNI) are
provided with some percentage of rebate.
c) Applicants taking loan for the second time for Home loans are under strict supervision
and verification.

This is done because the customers take loans for investing money by taking HL and
enjoying the redemption and deductions.
Bank has even introduced Know Your Customer (KYC) documents which constitutes of
all the personal and professional details of the applicants and the co-applicants applying
for home loans which helps the bank to get the information about the customers and
judge the purpose of applying for HL.

FIVE FORCES OF PORTER’S MODEL OF ICICI

SUPPLIER’S
POWER

BARRIERS THREAT OF
TO ENTRY RIVALRY SUBSTITUES

BUYER’S POWER DEGREE OF

RIVALRY

Supplier Power
 Increased Dependence on IPOs
 There is a growing dependence of corporates on broking houses with the rising number
of IPO’s coming to the market.

Buyer Power
 Lack of Expertise Curtails Bargaining Power
 Retail investors often lack the knowledge and expertise in the financial sector that calls
them to approach the broking houses.
 Low Product Differentiation Proves Beneficial
 The retail broking services provided by the various companies is homogeneous with very
low product differentiation. This allows customers to enjoy a greater bargaining power.

Degree of Rivalry
 Move towards consolidation
 Lot of brokerage companies are moving towards consolidation with the smaller ones
becoming either franchisees for the larger brokers or closing operations.
 Increased Focus of Banks in Retail Broking
 Various foreign banks like ABN Amro and others are planning to enter the Indian retail
brokerage industry.
 Online Trading Competes with Traditional Brokerage
 There is an increasing demand for online trading due to consumer’s growing preference
for internet as compared to approaching the brokers.

99
Barriers to Entry
 Entry of Foreign Players
 New forms of trading including T+2 settlement system, dematerialization etc are
strengthening the retail brokerage market and attracting foreign companies to enter the
Indian industry.

Threat of Substitutes
 Alternative Investment Options
 Various alternative forms of investment including fixed deposits with banks and post
offices etc act as substitutes to retail broking products and services.

100
 SWOT ANALYSIS

Strength
 Advanced Technology
 Providing innovative products and technology
 Leverage technology to satisfy customer demands.
 Add value to share holders.

Weakness:
 Too many subsidiaries
 High cost of funds

Opportunities:
 Higher capital base
 First mover advantages

Threats:
 Competition from other industry rivals like HDFC.
 Concern over NPA despite provisioning

Thus, ICICI has been able to use technology to provide value – added service to its
customers during the last few years. For ICICI, technology is an integral part of their
business. However, their overall progress could have been smoother but for certain
internal and extraneous factors and also a pressure on spreads due to a competitive
market.

101
Comparative study of ICICI Bank Ltd. and HDFC Bank

Even their offices reflect their attitudes. ICICI Bank's headquarters in suburban Mumbai is a huge,
imposing edifice in glass and granite. HDFC Bank's office in central Mumbai is comparatively
smaller and more sedately furnished. The two banks have carried forward their style statement in
their approach to business. ICICI Bank thinks big, is all for growth and hungry for market share.
HDFC Bank is more conservative and cautious, grows at a measured pace, without taking any
undue risks.

ICICI Bank's assets in the retail space stand at Rs 56,000 crore (Rs 560 billion). In comparison,
the tally for HDFC Bank is Rs 18,000 crore (Rs 180 billion). ICICI Bank also leads HDFC Bank in
almost every segment they are present in. But that's just the current update.

The DNA of the strategy

ICICI Bank began its retail banking venture in mid-1999. By January 2000, it had moved on to
introducing home loans, car loans, personal loans and credit cards. Realising the need for a
bigger retail deposit base, the bank started building a branch and an ATM network. The
acquisition of Bank of Madura in March 2001 added 263 branches, many of them in cities where
ICICI Bank did not have a presence.

The merger of the erstwhile financial institution ICICI Limited with the bank in April 2002, gave it a
ready-made corporate clientele. The flip side was that ICICI Bank had Rs 10,000 crore (Rs 100
billion) of restructured assets for which it had to make provisions.

On the other hand, HDFC Bank kick started its operations in 1995 with a focus on corporate
banking, targeting the top-end of the market.HDFC Bank ventured into retail lending in 1998, a
year before ICICI Bank. But in products like credit cards, it was slow to get off the mark. For
instance, its credit cards were launched only two years ago. By then ICICI Bank had been
present in the credit card business for nearly three years.

However, HDFC Bank was handicapped because it could not sell home loans (because its
parent HDFC was in the business), though it has been originating them in the past one-and-a-half
years. For ICICI Bank, home loans are 46 per cent of its retail assets.

A banking consultant observes that ICICI Bank is far more aggressive. Though ICICI executives
do not admit it, industry sources observe that ICICI's pricing has been far more competitive, which
probably brought it more customers.

According to some industry experts, growth for ICICI Bank may have come at the cost of quality.
ICICI Bank denies this.

Calling the customer

Both players targeted the same customer -- the upper-middle class. The marketing channels
used by both, including direct sales agents (DSAs), were the same. Yet, there was a difference.

In the past two years, the bank has spent less than Rs 100 crore (Rs 1 billion) on advertising and
publicity (In comparison, ICICI has spent Rs 185 crore). HDFC Bank says that its spends have
always focused on other channels such as direct sales and phone banking rather than
mainstream advertising.

102
Better pick-up

The numbers tell the story. ICICI Bank's retail deposits are nudging Rs 60,000 crore (Rs 600
billion) and in FY06, it grew its deposits by 47 per cent compared with the industry deposit growth
of 14 per cent. HDFC Bank's retail deposits are about Rs 23,000 crore (Rs 230 billion). Even in
home loans, ICICI Bank commands 30 per cent of the market, having eaten into housing finance
pioneer, HDFC's share.

Even in the number of customers ICICI Bank leads by a distance (See table: Share of the
wallet). Nearly 14 million customers bank with ICICI Bank, while the number for HDFC Bank is
less than half (6.4 million). ICICI Bank has issued 3 million credit cards -- that is more than twice
the number of HDFC Bank's credit card users. However, industry observers point out that ICICI
Bank's effective users for credit cards may not be high.

Nonetheless, they concede that even with a discounted customer base, the numbers will still be
strong. Even in businesses like online trading where the risks are relatively low, ICICI Bank
commands a two-thirds marketshare.

'Tell all' street

The stock market has always valued HDFC Bank at a huge premium -- at the current price of Rs
585, HDFC Bank is valued at 3.5 times price to forward book (valuation based on estimated book
value in FY 06 of Rs 165). The multiple for ICICI Bank that quotes at Rs 415, is just 2.1
(estimated book value Rs 194). The reason: the impeccable quality of HDFC Bank's balance
sheet. With NPLs of less than 0.2 per cent, compared with 2 per cent for ICICI Bank, its books
are definitely in far better shape.

HDFC Bank's operations are also more profitable -- its net interest margin at 3.2 per cent is way
higher than that of ICICI Bank's 2.4 per cent. Also, it is able to access deposits at a lower cost.
On an average, it pays an interest of 3.2 per cent while ICICI Bank shells out 4.5 per cent.

But round one of the banking sweepstakes has clearly gone to ICICI Bank.

RESEARCH FINDINGS:

The data collected through questionnaires with the help of Direct Sales Agent and Direct
Marketing Agencies has been of great importance to analyze many details regarding all
the captions that are there in the questionnaire of sample size 40. They are as follows:

• Age: The applicants ranging between the age of 30 - 45 years are the ones who
have applied for Home Loans large in number, it is because they are financially
stable and sound. But now a days customers ranging between 25 – 30 are even
applying for Home Loans because they are aware of the benefits that can be
availed by applying for Home Loans.

• Profession: Mostly, the Self Employed Non Professionals i.e., business persons
who are involved in their family business apply for Home Loans. Salaried are less
in number.

• Tenure & Loan Amount: The tenure which the bank and the customer finally
arrives at is according to the eligibility of the applicant in consideration to his
a) Age – As the bank itself assumes that is the person capable enough physically
and financially that he’ll be able to repay the loan in the fixed tenure.
b) Profession – either the person is salaried which shows he has a fixed income per
month and thus the installments will be on time, if the applicant is SEP or SENP
then there can be any gain or loss and so the tenure and amount of loan is fixed
accordingly.

• Product applied for: The most preferred products in Home Loans are:

Home Loan – It is specially for the purpose of construction and purchase.

Benefits of Home loans
 Cheaper Rates – RBI has given a margin of 0.75% which deducts
from the current prevailing rates.
 Easily granted.
 Amount of loan granted – 50% of the salary in case of salaried
class.
 Rebate / deduction in Income Tax.

Land Loan – It is normally given for the purpose of purchase of land for
Investment for future.
Benefits of Land Loans
 Normal rates – As it is granted for the purpose of investment so
RBI has not given any deduction of margin because it is not
beneficial for the government and is merely for the personal
benefit of the customer.

104
  There is no rebate in Income Tax.

LAP (Loan Against Property) – It is given for different purposes against any
property which is mortgaged with the bank and is released when the loan is
over.
Benefits of LAP
 Rates at which the loan is granted is above margin
 It is also known as Mortgage Loan.

Modes of Payment: After the whole analysis, the final conclusion is that
more than 60% of the applicants repay the loan through PDCs.

Property Mortgaged: Applicants can mortgaged any free property which

they own. Free property includes:
 Residential ( commercial and non-commercial)
 Commercial

Any other loan taken for the same property: Out of sample size 40, mostly
have not applied for any other loan simultaneously but through Credit
Information Bureau of (India) limited (CIBIL) and DEDUP records show that
at time of applying for HL customers itself take a check that they have
already repaid their dues of other loans.

Preferred bank for Home Loans: According to the survey through

questionnaire shows that ICICI Bank Ltd. is the most preferred
bank but this is because questionnaires have been filled by the applicants
applying in ICICI. Otherwise, HDFC is second market leader in Home Loans.

Loan from any other bank: Out of sample size of 40 customers mostly have
not applied in any other bank but some number of applicants are customers of
any other bank.

Sources of information for the various home loan plans: Features launched
by the bank in different plans of HL is outsourced through Direct Sales agents
and agencies. And even some customers or can say general public prefers
bank as the most reluctant source of availing information.

99% of the applicants in sample size are satisfied by the services provided
by ICICI Bank Ltd.

105
