INTRODUCTION
Background
A current deposit is a financial instrument provided by bank which provides investor the
facility of withdraw money at any time. The bank and financial institutions provide lower
interest rate on current deposit then saving and fixed deposit. It is also called demand deposit.
The defining criteria for a current deposit are that the money can be withdrawn at any time.
However current deposit provides lower interest rate. Businessman and investors need huge
amount of money at any time; however, the money cannot be managed immediately so that
the business organization/investors deposit their money on current account rather than
fixed/saving account.
Current deposit is those deposit which are withdrawn on demand. In other words, bank is
subject to give cash on demand deposit. Checking accounts, are commonly known as current
deposit in Nepal. Checking account is a type of current deposit bank account that allows you
to easily deposit and withdraw money for daily transactions. Generally, banks pay no interest
on current deposit but some bank pays low interest on current deposit. Rather bank charge
service fee to its customers directly and indirectly. Bank ask for minimum balance on these
accounts to cover the expenses to operate the account. Bank may provide overdraft facilities
on these accounts. Current account is an example of demand deposit account.
Generally, the current deposit will be made available to the customers for withdrawal at any
time without any penalty. Current deposit is used for those businesses that have a need for
issuing cheques to pay employee salaries and bonus. The customer can deposit and withdraw
large amount of money on current deposit account. Current deposit is a non-interest-
bearing account which is suitable for the customers for regular business transactions. Current
deposit is suitable for individuals, business organizations and for others for the fulfillment of
depository requirements where they can withdraw money, transfer the fund easily.
Current deposit account is opened by individual, businessman however mostly it is opened by
businessman who have to make a higher and regular number of transactions with the bank. It
includes deposit, withdrawals and contra transactions. It is also known as demand deposit
account. In current deposit amount can be withdrawn at any time without giving any notice. It
is also suitable for making payment to the creditors by issuing cheques.Cheques received
from the customers can be deposited in this account.
There are many facilities of current deposit such as current deposit are operated to run a
business, it is non-interest-bearing bank account, it needs minimum balance to be maintained
as compared to saving account, penalty is charged if minimum balance is not maintained in
current deposit account, it is of continuing nature as there is no fixed period to hold a current
deposit account and so on. There are many benefits of current deposit such as it enables
business organizations/individuals to carry out their business transactions properly and
promptly, money can be withdrawn by businessman or individuals from their current deposit
without any limit, there is no restriction on deposit made in current account from different
branches of the same bank. However, the account holder can deposit cash from others bank
by paying a certain nominal charge as prescribed by the bank. Another benefit of current
deposit is that it provides the facility of internet banking and mobile banking to carryout
business transaction easily and quickly.

Review
The review of literature is a crucial aspect because it denotes planning of the study. A
researcher work involves the use of reference materials. The concept of review of literature
involves reviewing research studies or other proposals in the related area of the study so that
all the past studies, their conclusions and efficiencies can be known and further researcher
can be conducted. In reality, review of literature provides knowledge about the past research
studies in one’s chosen area of study and suggests ideas to investigate the problem more

Analysis of Result
Data obtained from the various sources cannot be directly used in their original form further
they need to be verified and simplified for the purpose of analysis. Data, information, figure
and facts which are obtained should be checked, rechecked, edited and tabulated for
computation. According to the nature of data, they have been inserted in meaningful tables,
which have been shown in annexes. Homogenous data have been sorted in one table and
similarly various tables have been prepared in understandable manner and odd data are
excluded from the table.
Data analysis is the process of classification of collected data. This stage consists of editing,
coding, categorizing, tabulating and presenting the data in chart. Most of the researcher use
statistical tools such as mean, median, mode, standard deviation, t-test, z-test etc to
analysis of data. But this project work reporter uses Graph, Diagram, and Pie chart to
analysis of presenting data. Data presentation part only is not sufficient for business results. So,
Analysis of results is very important stage of research study after study about the data presentation.
The analysis of results of presented data as follows:
The yearly current deposit of NMB Bank Ltd. has been increased by 13494 million from
fiscal year 2071/072 to fiscal year 2072/073. This indicates that the branch has got success
in increment of current deposit. The reason of increment of current deposit was increased
in number of customers. But current deposit cannot be invested in long term period. So, the
liability of NMB Bank increased.
NMB Bank Ltd. collected current deposit of Rs 72138 million in fiscal year 2073/074 that has
been increased by 8522 million from fiscal year 2072/073. The increment of current deposit
was 13494 million in previous year; however, increment in current deposit has Rs 8522
million in fiscal year 2073/074. This indicates that the ratio of increment in current deposit
has been decreased. That would result the increase in cash collection in current deposit
account and liability to the bank
The amount collected by NMB Bank Ltd. In Current deposit account in fiscal year 2074/075
was 84510 million. It has been increased by 12372 million from fiscal year 2073/074. This
shown that the Bank achieved more cash collection in current deposit account. However,
the ratio of increment is increased from previous year.
The amount of fund in current deposit account in fiscal year 2075/076 was 98831 million.
That the collection has been increased by 14321 million from fiscal year 2074/075. It shows
that the collection increased by same ratio as compared to previous fiscal year 2074/075.
The collection in current deposit account collected by NMB Bank Ltd. has been increased in
every fiscal year from fiscal year 2071/072 to 2075/076. However, the ratio of increment
has found different. It was low in fiscal year 2072/073 to 2073/074 and high in fiscal year
2074/075 to 2075/076.
Among the different three objectives of the study one was to examine the number of
customer current depositor from NMB Bank Ltd. The no. of current depositor customer is
very important for study about the current deposit. The analysis of no. of customer current
