 HISTORY OF INDIAN BANKING SYSTEM

The first banks were Bank of Hindustan (1770-1829) and The General Bank of India,

established 1786 and since defunct. The largest bank, and the oldest still in existence, is the

State Bank of India, which originated in the Bank of Calcutta in June 1806, which almost

immediately became the Bank of Bengal. This was one of the three presidency banks, the other

two being the Bank of Bombay and the Bank of Madras, all three of which were established

under charters from the British East India Company.

The three banks merged in 1921 to form the Imperial Bank of India, which, upon India’s

independence, became the State Bank of India in 1955. For many years the presidency banks

acted as quasi- central banks, as did their successors, until the Reserve Bank of India was

established in 1935. In 1955, RBI acquired control on Imperial Bank of India, which was

renamed as State Bank of India. In 1959, SBI took over control of eight private banks floated

in the erstwhile princely states and making them as its 100% subsidiaries.

In 1969 the Indian government nationalized all the major banks that it did not already own and

these have remained under government ownership. They are run under a structure known as

‘profit- making public sector undertaking’ (PSU) and are allowed to compete and operate as

commercial banks. The Indian banking sector is made up of four types of banks, as well as the

PSUs and the state banks; they have been joined since the 1990s by new private commercial

banks and a number of foreign banks.

ANALYSIS ON GROWTH AND PERFORMANCE OF BANK OF BARODA
Analyzing the growth and performance of Bank of Baroda involves looking at various financial
metrics over a period of time, such as net income, assets, loa ns, deposits, return on assets (ROA),
return on equity (ROE), and non-performing assets (NPAs). Additionally, examining market
trends, regulatory changes, and competitive landscape can provide insights into the banks
performance.

1.Financial Metrics:This includes analyzing trends in net income, total assets, loans, deposits,
net interest margin, and operating expenses over multiple periods. We would compare these
figures year over year and potentially against industry benchmarks to assess the bank's growth
trajectory.

Starting with financial metrics:

 Net Income: Analyze the trend in Bank of Baroda's net income over the past several
years to identify any patterns of growth or decline. This will involve looking at annual net
income figures and calculating the year-over-year growth rates.
 Total Assets: Tracking the growth of Bank of Baroda's total assets provides insights into
the scale of its operations and its ability to expand its balance sheet over time. We'll
examine the trend in total assets and assess the factors driving any change.
 Loans and Deposits: Analyzing the growth of loans and deposits on Bank of Baroda's
balance sheet helps us understand its lending and funding activities. We'll look at trends
in both loan origination and deposit gathering to evaluate the bank's performance in these
key areas.
 Net Interest Margin (NIM): NIM is a crucial indicator of a bank's profitability from its
core lending and borrowing activities. We'll calculate and analyze Bank of Baroda's NIM
trend to assess its ability to generate net interest income.
 Operating Expenses: Monitoring trends in operating expenses allows us to evaluate Bank
of Baroda's efficiency and cost management efforts. We'll examine the trend in operating
expenses relative to revenue to assess the bank's operating efficiency.

2.Revenue Growth: Bank of Baroda's revenue growth can be analyzed by examining its net
interest income (NII) and non- interest income trends over the past few years. NII reflects the
difference between interest earned on loans and interest paid on deposits, while non- interest
income includes fee-based income, trading income, and other sources of revenue. By tracking
changes in NII and non- interest income, we can assess the bank's ability to generate sustainable
revenue streams and its performance in both interest-sensitive and fee-based businesses.
Additionally, analyzing the drivers of revenue growth, such as loan portfolio expansion, pricing
