INTRODUCTION
Whatever the mind of man can conceives and believe, the mind can achieve Man is a complex mix of elements and ever new invention motivates him to achieve something new. There was a time when human race struggled for food lived in caves and then slowly, gradually and eventually with his strong desire, dedication and determination he moved on to invention of wheel, two wheelers, four wheelers, computer, laptop, economy, currency and unending list of elements. As the development continues with accelerated momentum he felt a strong need of something which could add him in enhancing what he had with something what was in possession of someone else and thus Money and Economy were born. But this was sheer beginning. Slowly men felt need of a institution which can safely keep the wages of man, can provide him money over some obligation (interest) when he was in dire need and thus it was conception of the institution called Banks. At the time of its conception the primary purpose of a bank was provide loan to trading companies; and the name bank derived from Italian word banco naming desk / branch used during renaissance by Florentine Bankers who used to make their transaction above desk covered by green table cloth. Change is a part of Life.

It is apt to say that with the increasing facilities man craves more and it is this craving of his which introduces various changes in the modus operandi of various activities. Thus with the passage of time, the function of bank penetrated to individual. Bank today cover various financial and commercial activities which includes :

Issue of promissory notes. Processing of payment by way of telegraphic transfer. Issuing bank drafts and cheques Accepting money on term deposit. Lending money by way of overdraft, installments, loan or otherwise. Safe keeping of documents and other items in a safe deposit box. Currency exchange. Sales, distribution or brokerage with or without advice, of insurance, unit trusts and similar financial products.

As service of bank expanded, bank started using various methods which can aid in managing all the functions of bank and thus banks introduced, various physical evidence like cheques, bank drafts and ATMs, Credit cards etc. An ATM [Automated Teller Machine] is a technological version of traditional bank teller who used to disperse cash and other facilities over bank counter. However bank teller was available only during bank working hours, the ATM are 24 X 7, at disposal of customers.

Thus ATM is computerized telecom device that provide a customer of a financial transaction in a public place without the need of human desk [bank teller]. However ATM are invention of 20th Century when in 27th June 1967, Barclay Bankers installed first electronic ATM in Enfield town in North London. I India SBI was first Bank to introduce ATM Service in 1996. PNB, the second largest government owned commercial bank in India with about 4500 branches across 764 cities and serving over 37 million customers to introduce this service soon after SBI. Thus the ATM Service slowly become common to various bank in India too. Today almost all the bank issue a free of cost ATM to all the customers of all their branch that are internet worked through core banking system. Hence, it is an endeavor to draw a comparative study between the pre issuance and post issuance ATM Service of the major government owned banking Titans.

EVOLUTION OF SBI
The origin of the State Bank of India goes back to the first decade of the nineteenth century with the establishment of the Bank of Calcutta in Calcutta on 2 June 1806. Three years later the bank received its charter and was re-designed as the Bank of Bengal (2 January 1809). A unique institution, it was the first joint-stock bank of British India sponsored by the Government of Bengal. The Bank of Bombay (15 April 1840) and the Bank of Madras (1 July 1843) followed the Bank of Bengal. These three banks remained at the apex of modern banking in India till their amalgamation as the Imperial Bank of India on 27 January 1921. Primarily Anglo-Indian creations, the three presidency banks came into existence either as a result of the compulsions of imperial finance or by the felt needs of local European commerce and were not imposed from outside in an arbitrary manner to modernise India's economy. Their evolution was, however, shaped by ideas culled from similar developments in Europe and England, and was influenced by changes occurring in the structure of both the local trading environment and those in the relations of the Indian economy to the economy of Europe and the global economic framework.

Establishment
The establishment of the Bank of Bengal marked the advent of limited liability, joint-stock banking in India. So was the associated innovation in banking, viz. the decision to allow the Bank of Bengal to issue notes, which would be accepted for payment of public revenues within a restricted geographical area. This right of note issue was very valuable not only for the Bank of Bengal but also its two siblings, the Banks of Bombay and Madras. It meant an accretion to the capital of the banks, a capital on which the proprietors did not have to pay any interest. The concept of deposit banking was also an innovation because the practice of accepting money for safekeeping (and in some cases, even investment on behalf of the clients) by the indigenous bankers had not spread as a general habit in most parts of India. But, for a long time, and especially upto the time that the three presidency banks had a right of note issue, bank notes and government balances made up the bulk of the investible resources of the banks. The three banks were governed by royal charters, which were revised from time to time. Each charter provided for a share capital, four-fifth of which were privately subscribed and the rest owned by the provincial government. The members of the board of directors, which managed the affairs of each bank, were mostly proprietary directors representing the large European managing agency houses in India.

Business
The business of the banks was initially confined to discounting of bills of exchange or other negotiable private securities, keeping cash accounts and receiving deposits and issuing and circulating cash notes. Loans were restricted to Rs.one lakh and the period of accommodation confined to three months only. The security for such loans was public securities, commonly called Company's Paper, bullion, treasure, plate, jewels, or goods 'not of a perishable nature' and no interest could be charged beyond a rate of twelve per cent. Loans against goods like opium, indigo, salt woollens, cotton, cotton piece goods, mule twist and silk goods were also granted but such finance by way of cash credits gained momentum only from the third decade of the nineteenth century. All commodities, including tea, sugar and jute, which began to be financed later, were either pledged or hypothecated to the bank. Demand promissory notes were signed by the borrower in favour of the guarantor, which was in turn endorsed to the bank. Lending against shares of the banks or on the mortgage of houses, land or other real property was, however, forbidden.

Indians were the principal borrowers against deposit of Company's paper, while the business of discounts on private as well as salary bills was almost the exclusive monopoly of individuals Europeans and their partnership firms. But the main function of the three banks, as far as the government was concerned, was to help the latter raise loans from time to time and also provide a degree of stability to the prices of government securities.

Major change in the conditions


A major change in the conditions of operation of the Banks of Bengal, Bombay and Madras occurred after 1860. With the passing of the Paper Currency Act of 1861, the right of note issue of the presidency banks was abolished and the Government of India assumed from 1 March 1862 the sole power of issuing paper currency within British India. The task of management and circulation of the new currency notes was conferred on the presidency banks and the Government undertook to transfer the Treasury balances to the banks at places where the banks would open branches. None of the three banks had till then any branches (except the sole attempt and that too a short-lived one by the Bank of Bengal at Mirzapore in 1839) although the charters had given them such authority. But as soon as the three presidency bands were assured of the free use of government Treasury balances at places where they would open branches, they embarked on branch expansion at a rapid pace. By 1876, the branches, agencies and sub agencies of the three presidency banks covered most of the major parts and many of the inland trade centres in India. While the Bank of Bengal had eighteen branches including its head office, seasonal branches and sub agencies, the Banks of Bombay and Madras had fifteen each.

FINDINGS

Ph

51

COMPARATIVE STUDY OF ANNUAL MAINTAINANCE CHARGES LEVEID BY GOVT BANK OF INDIA

This project was a great experience for me and I really learnt a lot of things from this project. This project gave us the knowledge and information about ATM machines, banks offering ATM services and also about the people and their attitudes and perceptions towards ATMs. I have found, People want the ATM centers to be very close to their houses or place of work. People want that they should not be made to wait in queues in front of ATM centers. They want that the bank should go ahead and bring all its functions and activities on the ATM machine. The bank should provide services like balance transfer, balance inquiry etc. and that too at a cheap rate. The ATM machines sometimes take a lot of time to process a transaction and therefore the customers have to wait for a long time in front of the machine and which is irritating according to some respondents and if possible the banks should improve the software they use and reduce the time required by the customers. PNB and SBI ATM centers do not provide additional services like cash deposit, cheques deposit, bill payments etc.at all its centers, which many people want but they dont get it and leads to their dissatisfaction and where ever it is available it is charged.

CONCLUSION
As part of its 'Clicks and Bricks' strategy, both SBI and PNB Banks have developed multiple access channels comprising lean brick and mortar branches, ATMs, call centers and Internet banking. The branch network including extension counters presently covers many locations across India. SBI and PNB Bankss network of 24 hr ATMs is one of the largest and most widespread ATM Networks in India.

The SBI and PNB Banks ATMs feature user-friendly graphic screens with easy to follow instructions.

RECOMMENDATIONS & SUGGESTIONS


The findings and the conclusions reveal that there is a lot of changes which can be brought about to improve the perception and satisfaction of the customers towards PNB and SBI banks ATM centers. I recommend that, PNB and SBI bank should increase the number of ATM centers and at strategic positions.

Software used by the bank should be updated and fast so that people are not made to wait in the queue.

PNB and SBI bank can bring all its services on the ATM machines.

Facilities like cash deposit should also start at the ATM centers.

To increase the customer base and the customer satisfaction the ATM facility should be made as secured and safe as possible. PNB and SBI ATM is one of the safest but still there is scope for improvement.

LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY

Research work was carried out in Sagar city only the finding may not be applicable to the other parts of the country because of social and cultural differences.

The sample was collected using connivance-sampling techniques. As such result may not give an exact representation of the population.

Shortage of time is also reason for incomprehensiveness.

The views of the people are biased therefore it doesnt reflect true picture.
