The purpose of this article is to identify the dimensions of service quality (SQ) in the banking sector and examine the effect of SQ dimensions on customer satisfaction (CS), and therefore the effect of CS on corporate image (CI) in the selected public sector banks (PSBs) in India. The sample of the study consists of 640 retail customers of PSBs in the National Capital Region (NCR) of India and the data were collected through a structured questionnaire using a 7-point Likert scale based on purposive sampling. Therefore, the authors empirically validate a measurement model using structural equation modelling (SEM) through path analysis. The findings revealed that ‘tangibility’ and ‘assurance’ dimensions were most important predictors of CS among all five dimensions of SQ. In addition, the results also validate that CS is an important antecedent for influencing CI, and therefore CS acts as a linkage between SQ dimensions and CI in the Indian context. Finally, the research article presents the conclusion, implications and limitations and the possible directions for further research.

Plastic cards are the neglected innovation as far as its research on diffusion and adoption from bankers’ perspective is concerned. The study emphasizes on the identification of factors which may have influenced the banks to adopt Automated Teller Machine (ATM) cum debit cards along with their traditional banking services. Bank-specific variables were investigated to deepen the understanding of the diffusion and adoption of ATM cum debit cards. The sample of the study is confined to 50 commercial banks, out of which 23 are private and 27 are public sector banks. The empirical findings reveal that size, non-interest income, non-performing assets, profitability, age and market share of the bank are the variables which have contributed significantly in the diffusion and adoption of ATM cum debit cards. The present study would serve as the roadmap for the regulators to frame policies and guidelines while introducing new technology in the industry, which are best suited to customers as well as bankers.
