Impact of Private Sector Banks on Public Sector Banks
Banks are basically service-rendering institutions. The existence and success of banks depend on their ability to meet the various needs and wants of the customers. The new millennium has brought with it challenges as well as opportunities in various fields of economic activities including banking. The banking sector in India has undergone several changes in the areas of prudential, regulatory, disclosure and supervisory norms. The financial reforms launched during the early 1990s have dramatically changed the banking scenario in the country. New prudential norms, capital adequacy prescriptions, identification of bad debts, provision requirements etc. were enforced and interest rates were deregulated. As a result of these reforms, new private sector banks were allowed entry into the market.

This research mainly focuses on the impact of the entry of these new private sector banks on the old private sector banks in Indian banking sector.
