5. 5PREFACE
As a part of the MBA Curriculum and in order to gain practical knowledge in the field of management, I was
required to make a report on “Comparative Study of Banks Performance on Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana”.
The basic objective behind doing this project report is to gain knowledge on various aspects of data collection
and correlation and to get insights on successful management of large projects.
In this project report I have included various concepts like Zero Balance Accounts, Aadhar Seeding of
Accounts, etc. in relation to the PMJDY scheme and used these concepts to compare the performances of
various banks.
Doing this Project report helped me to enhance my knowledge regarding the various practical management
aspects involved in driving large projects to success and in engaging and motivating employees of the
organization who are the best asset an organization may possess. I have also learnt to collect primary data from
reliable sources and to critically analyse and draw inferences from it.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
As a part of my general Subject project report as part of MBA 4th
semester curriculum, I opted to study about
the various aspects of the hugely successful program ‘Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana’ (PMJDY).
My project report was titled ‘COMPARATIVE STUDY OF BANKS PERFORMANCE ON PRADHAN
MANTRI JAN DHAN YOJANA’
The Primary Objective of this study was to compare the banks performance with regards to this program on
various parameters. The data for this purpose was collected as secondary data from the PMJDY official
website. Along with it, first hand primary data was collected by interviewing bank employees and banking
customers to understand various success factors and challenges and expectations related to the program.
Detailed questionnaires were prepared for this purpose and the respondents were requested to provide their
valuable inputs.
The outcome of the study highlighted various aspects of the success of this program that can be applied to
general project management scenarios. It also brought forth the bottlenecks and the next steps that banks need
to take to make this program an ongoing success.
Further inferences along with detailed analysis are provided in the study.
8. 81. INTRODUCTION & CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK OF PMJDY
1.1 INTRODUCTION:
On 15th August 2014, India’s prime minister announced the launch of India’s most intensive financial inclusion
mission titled “Pradhanmantri Jan-Dhan Yojana”.
Jan Dhan Yojana roughly translates into English as “People’s Wealth Scheme”. India’s prime minister
Narendra Modi announced the launch of this scheme at the historic Red Fort on the occasion of India’s
Independence Day.
9. 91.2 Ten Facts about Pradhanmantri Jan-Dhan Yojana
The name “Jan Dhan” was chosen through an online competition on the My Gov Platform and received
more than 6000 suggestion from Indian citizens. After evaluation the jury shortlisted “Jan Dhan” which
was suggested by 7 individuals.
The slogan for the Pradhanmantri Jan Dhan mission is expected to be ” Mera Khata – Bhagya
Vidhaata” which when translated into English means ” My Bank Account – The Creator of the Good
Fortune”:
The Logo of the Mission is depicted below :
The primary aim of the Jan Dhan Yojana is to bring poor financially excluded people into the
banking system by providing them bank accounts and debit cards.
10. 10 The scheme will cover both urban and rural areas of India and all bank accounts opened will be linked
to a debit card which would be issued under the Ru-Pay scheme. (RuPay is India’s own unique domestic
card network owned by National Payments Corporation of India and has been created as an alternative
to Visa and MasterCard.)
Every individual who opens a bank account becomes eligible to receive an accident insurance cover of
up-to Rs 1 Lakh for his entire family.
The Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana has set an ambitious target of bringing in more than 7.5 crore un-
banked families into India’s banking system by opening more than 15 Crore bank accounts at the rate of
two bank accounts per household.
Once the bank account has been active for 6 months and has been linked to account holders Aadhar
identity , they would become eligible for an overdraft of up to Rs 2,500, which would further be
enhanced by the bank to Rs 5000 over time.
The Jan Dhan Yojana also seeks to provide incentives to business and banking correspondents who
serve as link for the last mile between savings account holders and the bank by fixing a minimum
monthly remuneration of Rs 5000.
The long term vision of the Jan Dhan Yojana is to lay the foundation of a cashless economy and is
complementary to the Digital India Scheme.
The Jan Dhan Yojana is expected to be launched formally on the 28th August 2014, when the finer details are
expected to make public at a function to be presided by the Prime Minister and his Cabinet Ministers in New
Delhi.
11. 11
EXCLUSION IN COVERAGE OF PMJDY LIFE INSURANCE - Government employees (serving/retired) and their
families, persons filing Income Tax Return/TDS deductees and persons covered under the Aam Adami
Bima Yojana, are ineligible for Life insurance under PMJDY.
1.3CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK OF PMJDY
On 15th August 2014, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, from the historic Red Fort, had announced the launch of
Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana (PMJDY). The primary aim of this scheme is to provide poor people access
to bank accounts. However, the account comes with some benefits as well.
MAIN AIMS OF THIS YOJANA ARE UNDER AS:
The scheme covers both urban and rural areas of India. All bank accounts will be linked to a debit card
which would be issued under the Ru-Pay scheme. RuPay is India’s own unique domestic card network
owned by National Payments Corporation of India and has been created as an alternative to Visa and
MasterCard.
Under this scheme, every individual who opens a bank account becomes eligible to receive an accident
insurance cover of up-to Rs 1 Lakh for his entire family.
A person who is already having a bank account with any bank need not open a separate account under
PMJDY. He/she will just have to get issued a RuPay Card in his existing account to get benefit of
accidental insurance. Over-draft facility can be extended in the existing account if it is being operated
satisfactorily.
Accidental Insurance coverage under PMJDY: Accidental insurance of Rs 1 lakh is available to all
RuPay card holders in the age group of 18-70 where RuPay card needs to be used once in 45 days of
receipt. Claim intimation should be given to his or her bank where account is maintained within 30 days
from the date of accident.
Life Insurance coverage under PMJDY. Only one person in the family will be covered and in case of the
person having multiple cards/accounts, the benefit will be allowed only under one card i.e. one person
per family will get a single cover of Rs 30,000. The claim of Rs 30,000/- is payable to the nominee(s) of
account holder who need to submit necessary documents to the Nodal Branch of the concerned Bank.
12. 12
Once the bank account has been active for 6 months and linked to Aadhar card, the person would
become eligible for an overdraft of up to Rs 2,500 which would further be enhanced by the bank to Rs
5000 over time.
The scheme also provides incentives to business and banking correspondents who serve as link for the
last mile between savings account holders and the bank by fixing a minimum monthly remuneration of
Rs 5000.
13. 131.4 Literary Review:
Dr S S Chowhan and Dr J C Pande (2014)
In recent years the Indian Government and the Reserve Bank of India had been pushing the concept of financial
inclusion, but no palpable effect could be seen in the plight of these financially vulnerable people. This paper
focussed on the importance of financial inclusion and the impact Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana (PMJDY)
would usher to all stakeholders in our country.
S Lakshmi, D Mamatha & Dr Ponniah V M (2014)
This study looked into the performance of Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana with reference to a nationalized
bank, Bank of Baroda.
C Paramasivan and V G Kumar (2014)
Financial inclusion aimed at providing banking and financial services to all people in a fair, transparent and
equitable manner at affordable cost. This paper was an attempt to discuss the overview of financial inclusion in
India.
N D Ranparia
His Research Paper on, “Financial Inclusion in Gujarat: A Study on Banker’s Initiatives” included study of
different financial inclusion aspects and evaluates progress and current status of financial inclusion of the state.
Dr. A Sharma and S Kukreja
This paper “An Analytical Study: Relevance of Financial Inclusion for Developing Nations”, stated the role of
financial inclusion in strengthening the India’s position in relation to other countries’ economy. The study
gathered data through secondary sources including report of RBI, NABARD, books on financial inclusion and
other articles written by eminent authors.
14. 141.5 Problem Statement:
This study looked at the various aspects of the Pradhan Mantri Jan-Dhan Yojana (PMJDY) and would
highlight the various success factors of this scheme and the performance of the participating banks and states.
Multiple similar initiatives aimed at financial inclusion were launched in the past also but failed to achieve their
goals. This makes the Pradhan Mantri Jan-Dhan Yojana (PMJDY) an interesting case study from various
perspectives, viz., marketing, HR and financials.
15. 15
1.6 Need for Study:
The situation of the banking sector was not encouraging in India as per Census 2011. The segment of the
population that needed the banking services the most had the least access to it. The table below highlights the
status of financial inclusion in India.
Lack of financial inclusion in India
Only
59%
Of Indian households have bank accounts (Census 2011)
50%
Of the bank accounts are not operated at all. Most probably those accounts
opened part of MNREGA and other campaigns
~46,000 Villages have bank branches. (Total number of villages is above 6 lakhs)
3.3 lakh
Villages have Banking Correspondent Agents (BCA). But this model has
not been successful
34% Is the average loan interest charged by local money lenders
55%
Of Rural Dalit families have to borrow money from local moneylenders /
Shroffs
16. 16
24%
Is the average loan-interest rate charged by Private microfinance
institutions (MFIs).
By 2010, Microfinance agents even started resorting to extra legal
means to recover loan money, and this model began to decline.
Accountable and transparent organisational structure for implementing PMJDY should be essential for
realising the desired societal outcomes.
On the occasion of the 68th
Independence Day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced an initiative to enable
those without access to banking and other financial services to access such services and thereby to expand
their options to generate better livelihoods and to improve household welfare.
This study will analyse how the first two problems of lack of bank accounts and inoperative bank accounts are
being addressed by the PMJDY initiative.
17. 172. OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY:
This study aims at preparing the reports listed below:
1. To identify various factors (Literacy, Place, Financial Status, Type of Bank, Time Period, Motivation
Level and Media Campaign) affecting the performance of PMJDY.
2. To study the cost incurred in this new initiative vis-a-vis the gains of thousands of crores of rupees
deposited in the banks.
3. To know the views of people having adopted this scheme & its impact on their lives.
4. To understand the challenges, opportunities & learning among the bank employees due to this initiative
(PMJDY).
2.1 Scope of Study:
The broad scope of this study is defined though its objectives. The data collection for the study is scoped
through the following parameters:
Covered duration for study – The first phase of the program starting from 28th
August 2014 to 26th
Jan
2015.
Primary data collection – The primary data would be collected through sources present in the NCR
region only. People from other states would not be interviewed unless they happen to be in NCR at such
time.
18. 18
Target Banks and States – Only the banks and states on whose performance data is included on the
website www.pmjdy.gov.in would be included in the study.
Study across states – link performance of states/districts with rural/urban population divide.
Comparative study across banks - with respect to zero balance and Aadhar seeding
HR perspective and Marketing perspective – to study what motivated bankers to work for this project
whole heartedly, the challenges faced by them and how the promotional campaigns increased the
banking awareness in the hinterlands.
Views of people who got accounts opened – to correlate with the bankers perspective and the media
campaign claims.
2.2 Research Methodology:
1. Research Approach:
The comparative studies were quantitative in nature. The perspective studies were qualitative in nature. Thus
the study was based on ‘Pragmatic Research’ approach.
2. Sample:
Convenience sampling of customers and bank employees located in the NCR region was done.
3. Sources of Data Collection:
For this study, data was collected through two sources:
19. 19
1. Primary data sources:
a. Questionnaire based interviews of customers
b. Questionnaire based interviews of bank employees.
c. Unstructured interviews of bank employees
2. Secondary data source: Progress reports of the program as available on the program website, journals,
magazines and newspapers.
4. Tools for Data Collection:
a. Questionnaire for customers
b. Questionnaire for bank employees
5. Tools and Methods for Data Processing:
Microsoft Excel was used as the analysis tool and as tool to generate visual reports.

3. DATA PRESENTATION AND DATA ANALYSIS:
3.1 Data Analysis Overview
The targets set for PMJDY are indeed very ambitious. The PMJDY increases the demand for banking and
related services massively. India’s insurance sector, both life insurance and non-life insurance components are
not in robust health, while life insurance coverage at less than 10 percent of the population is low. The
geographical coverage of branches of insurance companies also remains limited. The reforms of
insurance sector, including modernising regulatory structure of this sector, remain high priorities. This
creates a huge gap between the demand and supply of banking and financial services included in
PMJDY.
It is evident that the current structure of the banking and finance sector, its technology levels, skill-sets and
mind-set of the stakeholders in the sector, organisational capabilities, and regulatory structures are not equipped
to attain the ambitious goals of the PMJDY. The wide demand-supply gap in any area of public policy (such as
in Right to Education, RTE, Act) has the potential to impose high economic, social, and political costs. A sound
practice in any public policy is to keep demand and supply of the relevant services (good and assets) in
reasonable balance.
As the PMJDY substantially increases the demand for banking and other services, it is the pace at which
greater effectiveness on the supply side can be attained which should determine the targets of PMJDY.
The vision of having two accounts each for 75 million households must be tempered with the supply side
capacities. In this context, reasons for two (rather than at least one) bank account per household need to
be re-examined.
Supply side improvements are needed in the delivery systems through focused but flexible use of technologies,
and through greater efficiencies and effectiveness by the banking, insurance, and other service provider
organisations. Thus, too rigid a design mandated nationally is unlikely to be conductive to achieving the goals.
Local context and household specific flexibility and innovations need to be encouraged.
21. 21
The features of PMJDY outlined above suggest that from the society’s perspective, two types of costs will
need to be managed. The first type is the initial capital and related costs of opening the bank account,
and costs associated with pricing (costing) of the insurance cover based on rigorous actuarial projections.
Insurance is about micro-economic pricing in a dynamic context involving long term. When insurance cover is
provided, society must bear the costs of this service. If these costs are to be borne through governments
budgets, given India’s urgent need for fiscal consolidation and for reorienting government expenditure towards
growth and fairness enhancing expenditure (called fiscal flexibility), estimates of fiscal and of economic costs
to the society need to be estimated rigorously and transparently.
The second type of costs are those costs associated with operating bank accounts, servicing insurance
claims and overdraft facilities, and maintaining records of beneficiaries to utilise the services. Unless the
bank accounts are used, their full beneficial effects cannot be realised. Therefore transaction costs of
access to banking services must be minimised.
An important avenue for obtaining the PMJDY initiative is to use the data-base generated and delivery systems
constructed for more effectively implementing other government schemes, such as payments under various
pension schemes, energy, food, fertiliser subsidies, and wage payments under employment schemes such as
MGNREGS (Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme) which currently are
inefficiently delivered.
With accessibility to the banking facilities, direct transfers of the benefits to the relevant accounts have
the potential to reduce transaction costs, and minimise leakages. The resulting economic savings need to
be competently estimated for a more complete social cost-benefit analysis of PMJDY.
The above indirect economic benefits however are not automatic. To obtain them, substantial enhancement of
managerial and technical competency, and much better policy and organisational coherence will be required.
Basic literacy levels, including financial literacy levels, will also need to be enhanced. These attributes, if
developed in a focused and integrated manner, could potentially help generate positive net economic and social
benefits, while helping to expand fiscal space.
The above analysis suggests that the considerations which have led to the introduction of the PMJDY have
considerable merits. But achieving its goals will not be either quick or automatic.

A.3 BANK EMPLOYEES RESPONSES BASED INFERENCES AND APPLICATION TO MANAGEMENT PROBLEM
24. 24
# BANKS GENERAL MANAGEMENT
1 All banks (public, private and rural) were provided
time bound targets for PMJDY.
Well defined programs with clear targets and
timelines should be set
2 All banks could achieve the set targets. Even very aggressive targets can be achieved in this
manner and past failures no longer serve as deterrents
to success
3 76.5% of the bank employees were motivated to work
extra over the weekend for achieving their targets
Employees can be motivated to walk the extra mile, it
is not to be believed that they shirk work
4 None of the bank employees (zero percent) were
provided any financial incentives on achieving their
targets.
It is not money alone that drives employees
5 Yet they worked hard and were motivated. Reasons
apparent from the study is that:
A high percentage of employees (> 82%) believed that
the PMJDY scheme will be a success and the newly
opened accounts would not go defunct, that is, their
effort will be worth it and not go waste.
If the employees can be convinced that their efforts
would not go waster, they will be whole heartedly
working for top down programs.
6 Why did the employees have confidence in the
scheme
1. A high percentage of employees (> 82%) believed
that the PMJDY scheme will be effective for its target
customers
2. A high percentage of employees (> 82%) believed
that the PMJDY scheme will benefit the society at
large through its power of financial inclusion
3. Bank employees were not upset with their
increased workload as of 50% of them were satisfied
that they were working for the noble cause of helping
rural and poor people.
Employees have a high sense of social responsibility
and this can be effectively tapped by the organization
of the good of society and would also leave their
employees satisfied.
25. 25
7 Less than 6% of the respondents listed any internal
organizational challenges towards their goal
achievement, > 82% listed external socio-economic
issues.
Employees are part of the society and they do not live
in silos. If the employees are facing challenges, the
same should be looked at from a socio-economic
perspective also, especially for organizations with a
direct public connect.
8 Success factors listed by bank employees
1. Stakeholders’ and sponsors’ commitments at the
highest level (PM’s direct involvement)
2. Target based and Time bound execution with
regular follow-up after defining the program clearly
3. Aggressive Promotion and marketing campaigns
4. Micro-tailoring of the program to suit its customers
most required needs in form of zero minimum
balance, less paperwork, complementary insurance,
trust based overdraft facility, that is micro credit and
linkage of program to effective use case of direct
account subsidy transfer
The same factors form a recipe for success. It is
necessary that all the factors are involved and no
factor is lacking.
9 Employees know the strength and shortcomings of
their organizations as most of the public sector bank
employees found rural infrastructure enough while
private bank employees did not think so. This is in line
with the high rural penetration of public sector banks
and very low rural penetration of private banks
Employees could be very effective in providing
constructive feedback for strengthening the
organization. They are also well aware of the
challenges faced by their organizations. Empowered
employees are the best asset any organization can
have.
10 Even very busy bank managers took time out to fill the
survey questionnaire after they were convinced of the
genuineness of the study and were happy to share
their experiences and thoughts.
If approached with right authorisation and respecting
the commitments of the other party, everyone is
approachable. The sales and marketing teams should
understand this about prospective clients’ behaviour.
If they connect in the right manner and right time,
they can at least a get a patient audience from ther
clients.

B.4. RESPONSE PATTERN OF THE 26% RESPONDENTS WHO OPENED PMJDY ACCOUNTS
B.F. INFERENCES FROM CUSTOMER SURVEY
1. The promotion campaigns were effective in reaching out to their target audience as 100% of the unbanked
respondents. Over 80% of them also saw benefits from the micro-tailored aspects of overdraft facility and
insurance scheme.
2. The scheme has been beneficial for its target customers as over 84.5% of them have been regularly using their
bank accounts.
3. Within a short time period, over 50% of the beneficiaries were enrolled for direct subsidy transfer, it will keep
their accounts active, eliminate corruption and bring efficiencies into the system
31. 31
4. The response of the unbanked customers towards PMJDY has been more receptive than already customers
banked customers. It is evident from every single of the eight responses presented as chart above. It shows that
the scheme has been very effective in fulfilling its aim of raising banking awareness and financial inclusion. This
scheme has been able to reach out of the restricted academic and urban circles.
5. Over 92 % of the PMJDY beneficiaries are willing to recommend it to others, it is a validation of the fact that
they have been happy and the scheme met their requirements.
6. Over 92 % of the PMJDY beneficiaries are willing to recommend it to others, it also cross validates the bank
employees’ responses where they said that they were happy to work for the poor and rural people.
7. The usage of RuPay debit card once in every 45 days is low, it is around 30% for PMJDY beneficiaries. This might
be due to the low level of financial literacy and recent inclusion in the banking system. This is cross validated
with the bankers’ responses about the challenges faced by them.
8. If the scheme has to continue to be a roaring success that it has been, more attention needs to be paid to see
how the customers can be incentivised to use the RuPay debit card. It would also relieve the banks of the
increased workload when less people will visit branch to withdraw money.

C.5. INFERENCES FROM ZERO BALANCE ACCOUNTS TRENDS ACROSS VARIOUS BANKS
It costs to serve one PMJDY account around 75 Rs. If an account balance can be maintained by the customers, it would
help the banks recover this cost of account opening. It would also lower the insurance premiums in the longer run. An
effective way to ensure balance in the account is its linkage with direct benefit transfer schemes like the LPG PAHAL and
MGNREGA.
Zero balance performance of the banks is being studied to highlight trends so that the banks can conduct further
specific studies, take effective actions and maintain the financial feasibility of the program, especially with their
increasing Non Performing Assets burden in the Indian landscape.
# INFERENCE
1 When the program was launched, over 75% of the accounts were zero balance.
2. The percentage of zero balance in private sector banks was lower than the banks average, rural banks was
higher and the public sector banks matched with the average.
3. In one quarter, from October to December end, the average percentage fell marginally from 76% to 72.7%
4. In the next quarter from Jan to March, it fell sharply from 72.7% to 57.9%, that is, it reduced by almost 15%.
5. This period coincides with the launch of LPG Direct Benefit Transfer scheme, PAHAL where one time
payment and then recurring payments are made by the oil marketing companies to the accounts of LPG
consumers.
6. With the launch of other direct benefit transfer schemes like pension payment and MGNREGA payment to
accounts, this percentage should come down even further and make the scheme finically viable for banks to
sustain and expand.
7. Among the private sector banks, ICICI Bank has been able to achieve almost 50% reduction in its zero balance
accounts. Other banks can interlock with ICICI to replicate its performance model.
8. Except ICICI Bank, other bigger banks like HDFC, Axis and Yes Bank have not fared that well. Smaller private
banks have achieved a higher performance with regards to reduction in zero balance accounts.
9. Similar trend exists for bigger public sector banks like SBI and Bank of Baroda which rank lower than smaller
public sector banks in reducing zero balance accounts.

From the above, it can be inferred that:
1. The Aadhar seeding percentage follows the Aadhar issued percentages in the state. There is a positive
correlation between these two factors.
2. Aadhar issued percentage varies inversely with the rural population percentage. States with higher rural
populations have lower percentages of Aadhar issued.
3. There is negative correlation between Aadhar seeding and the rural population percentages. States with
higher rural population percentages have lower Aadhar issued percentages and much lower AAdhar
seeding percentages. The gap between the Aadhar seeding and Aadhars issued increases sharply in the
states with higher rural populations. This can be seen from the red circles highlighted in the chart
above.
Thus it can be said that the banks and the government needs to pay more attention towards states with higher rural
populations as the main objective of PMJDY scheme is to enable Aadhar linked direct benefit transfers to the rural
populations.

4. CONCLUSION:
The study was aimed at measuring the performance of various banks with respect to the ‘Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan
Yojana’. Data was collected through primary and secondary data sources. There were two broad categorizations of data
analysis. In the first category the various HR, Marketing and customer perspectives related to the PMJDY program were
studied. It was found that a time bound target based approach, direct engagement of sponsors at the highest level,
aggressive marketing campaigns and the accurate micro tailoring of the product features to address the most pressing
needs of the unbanked customers were the key factors for the success of this program. Also the high motivation level of
the bank employees along with their inherent sense of social responsibility contributed greatly to the successful
implementation of the program at the grass root levels.
In the second category, the performance of the banks was studied using zero balance account trends and Aaadhar
seeding trends at bank and state levels. It was found that the percentage of Zero Balance Accounts held with the banks
fell down by 15 percent during the first quarter of year 2015 with the initiation of the LPG direct subsidy transfer
scheme. A positive correlation was found between the percentage of Aadhar cards issuance in states and Aadhar
seeding with the PMJDY bank accounts opened in the state. A negative correlation was found between the Aadhar
seeding percentage and the rural population percentage in the states.
In light of this study, it can be concluded that the biggest projects can be run successfully with active involvement of all
the stakeholders and they become valuable reference points for all management professionals. Also, further studies
should be conducted to address the issues to make the PMJDY program a continuing success and achieve the dream of a
fully banked and enabled nation.
