    RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

    Methodology includes the overall research procedures, which are followed in the research

    study. This includes Research design, the sampling procedures, and the data collection

    method and analysis procedures. To broad methodologies can be used to answer any

    research question-experimental research and non-experimental research. The major

    difference between the two methodologies lies in the control of extraneous variables by the

    intervention of the investigator in the experimental research.

    RESEARCH DESIGN

    A research design is defined, as the specification of methods and procedures for

    acquiring the Information needed. It is a plant or organizing framework for doing the study

    and collecting the data. Designing a research plan requires decisions all the data sources,

    research approaches, Research instruments, sampling plan and contact methods.

    Research design is mainly of following types: -

    1. Exploratory research.

    2. Descriptive studies

    3. Casual studies

    EXPLORATORY RESEARCH

    The major purposes of exploratory studies are the identification of problems,

    the more precise Formulation of problems and the formulations of new alternative courses

    of action. The design of exploratory studies is characterized by a great amount of flexibility

    and ad-hoc veracity.

    Descriptive research in contrast to exploratory research is marked by the prior

    formulation of specific research Questions. The investigator already knows a substantial

    amount about the research problem. Perhaps as a Result of an exploratory study, before the

    project is initiated. Descriptive research is also characterized by a Preplanned and

    structured design.

    Banking Industry in 1994. The bank was incorporated in August 1994 in the name of

    'HDFC Bank Limited', with its registered office in Mumbai, India. HDFC Bank

    offering in the form of ADRs listed on the NYSE in fiscal 2000, ICICI Bank's acquisition

    of Bank of Madura Limited in an all-stock amalgamation in fiscal 2001, and secondary

    market sales by ICICI to institutional investors in fiscal 2001 and fiscal 2002. ICICI was

    formed in 1955 at the initiative of the World Bank, the Government of India and

    representatives of Indian industry. The principal objective was to create a development

    financial institution for providing medium-term and long-term project financing to Indian

    businesses. In the 1990s, ICICI transformed its business from a development financial

    institution offering only project finance to a diversified financial services group offering a

    wide variety of products and services, both directly and through a number of subsidiaries

    and affiliates like ICICI Bank. In 1999, ICICI become the first Indian company and the

    first bank or financial institution from non-Japan Asia to be listed on the NYSE.

    After consideration of various corporate structuring alternatives in the context of the

    emerging competitive scenario in the Indian banking industry, and the move towards

    universal banking, the managements of ICICI and ICICI Bank formed the view that the

    merger of ICICI with ICICI Bank would be the optimal strategic alternative for both

    entities, and would create the optimal legal structure for the ICICI group's universal

    banking strategy. The merger would enhance value for ICICI shareholders through the

    merged entity's access to low-cost deposits, greater opportunities for earning fee-based

    income and the ability to participate in the payments system and provide transaction-

    banking services. The merger would enhance value for ICICI Bank shareholders through a

    large capital base and scale of operations, seamless access to ICICI's strong corporate

    relationships built up over five decades, entry into new business segments, higher market

    share in various business segments, particularly fee-based services, and access to the vast

    19

  • 8/2/2019 Comparative Analysis of Product & Services of HDFC & ICICI

    20/107

    talent pool of ICICI and its subsidiaries. In October 2001, the Boards of Directors of ICICI

    and ICICI Bank approved the merger of ICICI and two of its wholly-owned retail finance

    subsidiaries, ICICI Personal Financial Services Limited and ICICI Capital Services

    Limited, with ICICI Bank. The merger was approved by shareholders of ICICI and ICICI

    Bank in January 2002, by the High Court of Gujarat at Ahmedabad in March 2002, and by

    the High Court of Judicature at Mumbai and the Reserve Bank of India in April 2002.

    Consequent to the merger, the ICICI group's financing and banking operations, both

    wholesale and retail, have been integrated in a single entity.
