EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Home is a dream of a person that shows the quantity of efforts, sacrifices luxuries and
above all gathering funds little by little to afford one’s dream. Home is one of the things that
everyone one wants to own. Home is a shelter to person where he rests and feel comfortable.
Many banks providing home loans whether commercial banks or financial institutions to the
people who want to had a home. The housing sector plays an important role in the economic
development of the country.
My project title is “ANALYSIS ON CUSTOMER SATISFACTION ON HOME
LOANS IN HERO HOUSING FINANCE WITH OTHER COMPETATIVE FINANCE”. I
selected this topic because The Indian housing finance industry has grown by leaps and bound in
few years.Total home loans disbursements by banks has risen which witnesses phenomenal
growth from last 5 years. There are greater number of borrowers of home loans.so by this study
we can find out satisfaction level of customers and problems faced by them in obtaining home
loans.
My objectives of study are-
• To make comparative study of Disbursement of home loans by commercial banks.
• To study the satisfaction level of customers about home loans.
• To study the problems faced by customers in obtaining the home loans.
For this I had taken four commercial Banks in Dehradun city namely HDFC Bank, PNB,
standard chartered Bank, SBI. It includes two public sector banks and two private sector banks.
The period of study is five years commencing from 2004-2008.
In the research methodology I had taken both primary data as well as secondary data , in the
primary data I had make a questionnaire to check the satisfaction level of customers about home
loans . In the secondary data I had studied the annual reports of RBI, commercial banks &
broachers of these banks.
For the first objective I had collected the information about the number of account
holders of specified banks, no of disbursement of home loans and recovery of these
loans.
After analysis I came to following findings
In the comparative study of specified banks it’s found that
Punjab National Bank is having large number of customer base with high loan
disbursement and recovery of loans.
The standard chartered bank showed less outstanding balance which presented
in percentage form in the diagram.
The customer does not had proper knowledge about different Home loan
products so they face problem in making a good deal.
There are procedural delays, which harass the customers lot this will crush
the curtsy of customers to avail the home loan.
The attitude of bank employees some times non cooperative and it creates a
hurdle in building trust and Confidence among customers about banks.
The banks do not take into account the paying capacity of customers. So
some customers are not able to get amount of Loan needed by them.
Finally the whole research was carried out in a systematic way to reach at exact
results. The whole research and findings were based on the objectives some of the
limitation faced in collecting the data were Lack of time, lack of data, non-
response, reluctant attitude and illiteracy of respondents, which posed problems in
carrying out the research.
The Banks should use easy procedure, or say, less lengthy procedure for the
sanctioning of loan to the customer. There should be less number of legal
formalities, in case this exists, then, these should be completed in less time.
This will be helpful in attracting more customers.
Although the interest rates on specific norms, yet customers seek less
interest rate which can lower their cost of house. So banks should try to
lower their interest rates. Needles to say, that the bank which having lower
interest rates, have the maximum clients for loans.
The public sector banks should improve their overall services to increase the
number of customers for home loans. They should recruit professionals to
provide such services and to satisfy the customers.
INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION TO HOME LOANS-
Home is a dream of a person that shows the quantity of efforts, sacrifices luxuries and above all
gathering funds little by little to afford one’s dream.
Home is one of the things that everyone one wants to own. Home is a shelter to person
where he rests and feel comfortable. Many banks providing home loans whether commercial
banks or financial institutions to the people who want to have a home.

3.door-step services-:
This door to step services are provide for enquiry stage to the final disbursement takes place such
services are beneficial for customer in present busy life.
4. Loan period-:
There banks which provide maximum loans tenure up to 15-20 years based on the
amount and the creditability of customers.
Some banks provide free accidental death insurance with housing loan
which is very beneficial for the customers
DISADVANGES OF HOME LOAN-:
The every bank has its own procedure to disburse the loan amount among customers. After
choosing your right home, the next step is disbursement of home loans.
The loan amount is disbursed after identifying and selecting the property or home that are
purchased and submit the requisite legal documents. In the disbursement of home loans a clear
title and full verification to ensure that
a person has full rights on his house. The 230A clearance of seller and /or 371 clearances from
the appropriate authority of income tax is also needed.
1 Eligibility criteria:-
However, if one is a resident or non-resident individual who is planning to buy a house in India,
one can apply for a home loan. If a person has decided to buy a property in the near future,
he/she can apply for a loan before even selecting the property. Once the maximum amount to put
into the property has been decided, the Housing Finance Institutions or Banks will let the
customer know that how much he/she is eligible for and this helps to plan out the budget.
Parent - son: - It can be clubbed if only son is there but not if any male sibling exists.
Brother-Brother: - If they are currently staying together and intend to stay together in the new
property, then only, their income-can be clubbed for above purposes.
3. General Terms and Conditions: - The following are the tems and conditions applicable to
the basic home loan product only. These are likely to change on the basis of the variations of the
home loan product. Typically, in general home loans, the follow in conditions are applicable:-
1) The loan to value ratio (LTV) cannot exceed a particular percentage. This differs from
product to product and from one Housing Finance Institutional Bank (HFI/B) to another. The
components of the value of the Property calculated here are covered under cost of property.
2) The maximum tenure of the bank is nominally fixed by HFI/Bs. However, HFls/Bs do
provide for different tenures with different terms and conditions.
3) The installment that one pay is normally restricted to about-50-per cent of the monthly-gross
income of the candidate.
4) The total monthly outflow towards all the loans that have been availed of, including the
current loan is normally restricted to 50% of the gross monthly income.
5) One will be eligible for a loan amount which is the lowest as per one's eligibility. This is
calculated as per the LTV norms, the HR, norms and the FOIR norms as mentioned above.
6) Most HFls/Bs consider the profile before they judge the repayment capacity. The judgement is
based on age, qualifications, number of dependents, employment details, employer credentials,
work experience, previous track record of repayment of any loans that have been availed of,
occupation, the industry to which the candidate's business relates to, if he/she is self-employed,
then the turnover in the last 3-4 years etc.
7) Some HFIs/Bs insists on guarantees from other individuals for the repayment of the loan. In
such cases, the customers has to arrange for the personal guarantee before the disbursement of
the loan takes place.
8) The property should be technically clear before the HFIs/Bs disburses the loans amount.
Most of institutions and banks have a teams of technical experts who visit the site to get a
technical report before the disbursement of loan. This is also beneficial to the customer as they
check for the technical quality and compliance with local laws.
9) The property should be legally clear before one can avail of a disbursement of the loan
amount. Housing-Finance Institutions /Banks (HFIs/Bs) take legal clearance from their lawyers
before the disbursement of amount. This proves to be beneficial to the customers as a legal
expert checks his/her documentation to ensure that he/she get a proper title to the property.
10) The disbursement of the loan is as per the progress of construction of the property unless it
is a ready property in which case the disbursement will be by one single cheque. PEMI or simple
interest on the loan amount disbursed to the customer in case of a part disbursement will be
payable by the customer on the disbursement.
11) The disbursement in most cases will be favoring the builder or the seller or the society or
the development authority as the case may be. The disbursement will come in the customer's
favour under special circumstances only.
12) The repayment of loan can be made either through deduction against salary, post-dated
cheques, standing instructions or Auto debit instructions to bank.
13) The principle is amortized either on annual reducing or monthly reducing basis as the case
may be
4.Charges applicable to home loans :-
The different kinds of charges applicable to home loans are discussed below:
a) Processing fees :-
First of all, comes the process fee. This is a charge that is levied by most HFls/Bs. This has
to be paid at the time of submission of the application form. It's normally charged as a
percentage of the loan amount sanctioned. Some HFls also charge a flat fee based on the loan
amount instead of a percentage. When a lower amount is sanctioned the excess fees paid at the
time of submission of the application is adjusted with the charges, which one make to the HFI/B
subsequently. Most HFls/Bs refund the processing fee if the loan application is rejected.
b) Administrative fees :-
This charge is again, normally, a percentage of the loan amount sanctioned. It is collected
by the HFI/B for the maintenance of customer's records, issuing interest certificates, legal
charges, technical charges, etc. though the tenure of the loan. It is payable by the customer when
he/she accepts the offer letter given by the HFI/B. This payment has to be made before the
availment of the disbursement. The mode of collection of these fees varies from one HFI/B to
another.
c) Rate of interest :-
This is the rate of interest applicable on the loan amount through the tenure of the loan. It is
charged on the principal monthly reducing method. Most HFIs/Bs give an option to select either
a fixed rate of interest or a variable rate of interest.
d) Legal Charges:-
Some HFIs/Bs mainly Public Sector Banks levy legal charges that they incur on getting the
property documents vetted by their panel of lawyers.
e) Technical Charges:-
These charges are also levied by certain Housing Finance Institutions/Banks (HFIs/Bs) to
meet their expenses on the technical site visits to the customer's property. This ensures quality of
construction and construction within the norms as stipulated by the respective approval
authority.
HFIs that go in for a registered mortgage pass these charges on to the customer. These are
rather heavy in certain states depending on the laws laid down by the state where one buy a
property.
Since the personal guarantee provided by the customer need to be stamped, these charges
are also recovered from the customer. They are charged to him by HFIs who demand for
Guarantees.
h) Cheque Bounce Charges :-
In case the cheques through which one make a payment to HFls get dishonored, some
minimum charges are levied by the HFI. The same are recovered from the customer.
HFls/Bs charge delayed payment charges from the customer if he/she delays the payment of
installments beyond the due date.
These are levied as a percentage on the delayed payment charges by most HFls. They are
levied if one fail to pay the dues within the stipulated time after a delay has taken place.
This is payable in case the HFI/B sends a representative from their organization to collect
their outstanding dues. It is normally charged at a flat rate per visit. These charges are levied by
most HFls/Bs.
l) Prepayment Charges :-
This is a penalty charged by HFls/Bs from when one makes either a part prepayment or a
full repayment of the loan. This charge is levied only on lump sum payments and not on the
EMls that one pays. This charge is levied on the amount prepaid by one and not on the entire
outstanding principal. These charges are gradually being discount. So, these are the charges
levied by most Housing Finance Institutions and Banks while granting home loan to the
customers. Now, the decision on the repayment capacity shall be talked about as follows.
(v) Judgement regarding repayment capacity on the basis of income :-
Less:- Any non regular variable income appearing on the salary slip (including overtime, etc.)
Add : - 50 per cent of the average variable income of the last six months.
Add: - Any fixed cash/voucher payments for which proof can be submitted.
Add: - 50 per cent of the average variable cash/voucher payments with proof like traveling
reimbursement etc.
Add :- HRA receivable if not being received already in the salary slip.
The above income calculated for the calculation of eligibility using IIR and FOIR norms. For
calculation of FOIR, the installments of all the loans that one has availed of currently
for which repayment is being made is taken into account as well. The lower of the two
eligibilities is considered as the maximum repayment capacity.
b) To consider income of Self-employed individuals we further classify them into Professionals
and non-professionals .
Average of the net profits of last 2 years as it appears in the profit and loss account (Returns need
to be filed for the same. They should be filed regularly before the due date is over).
Less: - Any income, which is unusual and non-recurring in nature like sale of some asset, etc
which affects profits substantially,
Add: - Any expense that is unusual and non-recurring in nature like repairs and maintenance that
has not been capitalized and effect profit adversely.
Add: - 50 per cent of the average depreciation of the last two years. The above income is
calculated for the calculation of eligibility using IIR and FOIR norms.
For calculation of FOIR the installments of all the loans that one has availed of currently for
which repayment is being made is taken into account and the eligibility is worked out. The lower
of the two eligibilities is considered as the
maximum repayment capacity.
For salaried slips for the last three months appointments letter-salary certificate-
retainership agreement, if appointed as a consultant-Form 16 issued by the employer in
customer's name income document for self employee - last three years profit and loss account
statement duly attested by Chartered Accountants. Last three years Balance Sheets duly attested
by Chartered Accountant, last three years Income Tax Returns with computation chart duly filed
and certified by the Income Tax authorities.
b) Proof of employment : -
Identify card issued by the employer- Visiting card.
• Name of promoter/directors
• Background of promoters/directors
• Number of employees
• List of branches/factories
• List of suppliers
• List of clients/customers
• Turnover of employer
• Annual reports of the employer for the last two to three years.
Legal Documentation the typical legal documents that need to be submitted to the HFC
arc discussed here. Given below is a list of legal property documents that need to be submitted to
the HFC for mortgage of the property. The name and the list of documents vary from state to
state and also depend on the type of property being financed. A broad outline of the documents
required is given below.
e) In case of alternator additional security, documents for the same depending upon the security
details.
f) Post dated cheques for the EMls.
The above documents are only indicative in nature and do not cover the entire list. It may, also
be noted that in a resale case, the previous chain of agreement also need to be taken.
(viii) The tax benefits that are applicable to housing loans for individuals :-
Currently Tax Benefits to individuals are available only for the Home Loans and Home
Extension Loans products. The benefits available are covered under these sections.
Property Insurance :-
Is it compulsory to insure the property? some HFls insist on a mortgage redemption life
insurance policy. In this case the customer gets a benefit of an interest rate reduction. Though the
HFI may not insist, it is better to go in for property insurance to safeguard the asset against any
sort of damage or loss. The customer can select the tenure for the property insurance. The
insurance premium is changed up front. Most insurance companies provide for huge discounts
on the rate of premium for larger tenures. The premium charged currently is seventy-seven for
every lakh of property for a year. So a customer has to fulfill various conditions to be eligible for
availing home loan from a Housing Finance Institution/Bank After fulfilling these conditions, a
customer can avail loan at low interest rate i.e. fixed rate floating rate. A decision on whether
one should go in for a fixed-rate loan or a floating-rate loan now is a function of two factors i.e.
One's perception of where interest rates in the economy are headed and one' capacity to ride the
interest rate changes. A floating-rate loan let one take advantage of further falls in interest rates
but one stand to loose if interest rate, rise again. However this decision is based on the
perception of the consumer.

Literature Review
After going through pervious studies of Home loans I came to conclude that-• There is growth of
home loans after 2001.
• Home loans have an inverse relation with interest rates i.e. when interest rate low the demand
of home loans increase. (Ojha 1987)
• People are going more towards home loans than private mortgage
i n s u r a n c e .(Berstain 2008)
• Government taking various steps to encourage people to go toward home loans .
(Haavio, Kauppi 2000)
• Growth of home loans are due to increase of living standard of people,
shiftingfrom joint family to nuclear family .(Lacourr, Micheal 2007)
• There are some problems also attach with these home loans such as time i.e filling of
application of loan to closing ,people have their own specified needs from these
home loans which are not fulfilling. (Lacour Micheal 2006).
• SBI provide a very low interest rate on home loans as compared to other banks.
(SBI May 2000
examined in his study taken from 2001 to 2008 that in this period there is increase use of
home loans as compared to private mortgage insurance(PMI).he have divided his

than PMI. the main reason for this that now home loans market provide Piggybank loans for

Interpretation :-
To interpret the response of the questions, the figures shows that most of the customers
find the problem in availability of funds i.e. 36% and very less number of customers found
problem in paying cash in one go is 35%, customers get housing loan for tax benefits is 24%.
This was the expected response because a large number of people find a problem of availability
of funds which works as an obstacle in owning a dream home.
In today's life, people hardly earn both means and ends of life and they don't have much
of money to buy a home or a land to construct house because of cost of property. So, they take
the advantage of home loans provided by different banks at different terms feasible to the
customers. There are very less number of people, who don't own home even when they have
sufficient funds and they take the advantage of home loans because they don't want to pay huge
cash in one go.

PROBLEMS FACED BY CUSTOMERS IN AVAILING HOME LOANS
There are everything in the world has good or bad points. No doubt banking /Finance
industry/ company has made many efforts to enhance the customer satisfaction but customer still
faced some problems. These are high lightened as below:
1) The customer does not have proper knowledge about different home loan products so
they face problem in making a good deal.
2) There are procedural delays, which harass the customers lot. This will crush the curtsy
of customers to avail the home loan.
3) The attitude of bank employees some times non cooperative and it creates a hurdle in
building trust and Confidence among customers about banks.
4) The banks do not take into account the paying capacity of customers. So some
customers are not able to get amount of loan needed by them.
So above discussed are the problems which faced by customers while availing home loans.
FINDINGS
1. Hero Housing finance having good brand image in the minds of customers.
2. Majority of the people got loans from Hero Housing finance
3. Most of the customers are not aware of the products of Hero Housing finance home loans
4. Some of the customer’s felt that the interest rates are some what high
5. Some of the customer not having good faith on other finance like Shubham
finance ,poonawala finance etc.
6. Most of the people are directly go to Hero Housing finance to apply a home loan
7. Some of the customer of Hero Housing finance already benefited through Hero Housing
finance loan products and services
8. Customer awareness is medium about Hero Housing finance products.
9. Hero Housing finance providing good services to their customers.
RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
2) To satisfy their customers and for good dealings in future, the HERO
HOUSINGFINANCE should make prompt disbursement of loan amount to the customers so that
they can buy or construct their dream home as early as possible.
3) The HERO HOUSINGFINANCE should use easy procedure, or say, less lengthy
procedure for the sanctioning of loan to the customer. There should be less number of legal
formalities, in case this exists, then, these should be completed in less time. This will be helpful
in attracting more customers.
4) Although the interest rates on specific norms, yet customers seek less interest rate
which can lower their cost of house. So banks should try to lower their interest rates. Needles to
say, that the bank which is having lower interest rates, have the maximum clients for loans.
6) Create awareness: The Company has to take care of awareness creation about the
products and services among the customers.
7) Charges: The Company has to reduce the mortality and administration charges.
8) The company has to reduce their interest rates on home loan products and services.
10) Company should consider the present competition and should act according to the
customer needs.
11) The HERO HOUSING FINANCE should try to provide proper knowledge regarding
their home loan schemes, even to people who don't know about such schemes and their benefits
especially in rural areas. So they should provide knowledge to the ignorant customers, especially
in rural areas and backward urban area So, above are the main suggestions
CONCLUSION
1) In my study we came to know that many peoples are interested to take a home loan from
HERO HOUSING FINANCE to construct their homes.
2) Home loans have long period when compare to other personal loans and other loans. So
peoples are confused to take a home loan.
3) Even though the interest rates are high peoples are willing to take a loan from HERO
HOUSING FINANCE due to some reasons.
4) The interest rates also some what high when compare to other banks and finance
6) For disbursement process is also it will take low time when compare to other banks
Finally the whole research was carried out in a systematic way to reach at exact results. The
whole research and findings were based on the objectives. However, the study had some
limitations also such as lack of time, lack of data, non-response, reluctant attitude and illiteracy
of respondents, which posed problems in carrying out the research. But proper attention was
made to Carry out research in proper way and to make accurate conclusion for the HERO
HOUSING FINANCE which may beneficial for banks to enhance their customer base
