Yes but with a sense of apprehension ! Apprehension as to how safe it would be and whether it would really work. Also there is the lingering doubt on refunds etc.

No today peolple are unaware with the moblie banking.... 2011 is poised to be the year that would transform your banking habits — making payments or checking your account balance on your mobile. Yet, currently just about five per cent of all mobile subscribers are registered for mobile banking and more significantly, only 0.5 per cent actively use mobile banking (as per industry estimates), the customer base is woefully small.

Money through Mobile (MTM) system. Why Telecom industry should own MTM business? -With transition from Voice call business to IP based and Data and Multimedia, substantial amount of business revenue will also move out of Telecom Industry to external industries such as banks, content providers, and other multimedia service providers. -These industries use access through Telecom systems and networks that are set up and run with heavy CAPEX and OPEX. Telecom service providers cannot become mere onlookers while their system and network are used by other industries and hijack their revenue potentials. -The micro-money management service as envisaged in MTM has nothing to do with PC or Mobile phone accessed e-banking service. Moreover, banks cannot effectively provide high volume of low value day to day money transactions especially for the people in the lower strata across the country. -Since entire customer base, technology involved, systems and network involved in the business belong to various Telecom service providers, the industry has all the right to own the business. To avoid multiple systems and conflict of interest, MTM system can be setup and owned by consortium of Telecom Service providers on an investment and profit sharing arrangement. Revenue from basic Telecom operation is dwindling and MTM is a great option for diversification available to Telecom Service providers. -The customer base, the technology and access to MTM System depends on Mobile Phones, Mobile systems and its Networks. -The technology and method of working is same as used in prepaid systems, that is already in use by Telecom Service Providers. Money transactions being a non-Telephony related VAS, MTM will help to improve ARPU for Telecom Service providers. - With UUID in place various welfare payments such as NREGA, Money in lieu of PDS, Right to education, health-care, and other welfare payments direct to beneficiaries etc., Micro-finance support at affordable interest, etc planned for Financial Inclusion of economically backward, are in the horizon. Diversification by venturing into these areas opens out great opportunity to Telecom Industry as a whole and BSNL to effective use of excess manpower in MTM and its ancillary businesses. Therefore, it is in the interest of the Government that Telecom Industry is benefited from this avenue of business diversification. However, to avoid multiple systems and conflict of interest MTM system can be setup and owned by consortium of Telecom Service Providers. Even it is worthwhile to provide a GSM system with network coverage across the country owned by a consortium of Telecom Service providers exclusively for this purpose.

M-Banking is a possibility. The biggest reason people are still not used by most users is because if the security issues that are present around doing internet or M-Banking. That being said, there are already companies which are actively working on mobile banking securities which market is still not really reached India but definitely would not be far behind.

Yes, we are ready for M- banking. However, it is not too much users or ready to use in present time. I agree with Ms.Sujatha that she has mentioned some data. But, in near future people will definitely use M-banking service. Especially, youngsteres (age group 20-40 years) will churn into the M-banking.It is like that before 10 years age there was less used of mobile phone, not anykind of internet banking but now a days these facilities are available.It will take time but you will see the huge level of acceptance of M-banking.

NO NO PEOPLE ARE UNAWARE OF M-BANKING. PEOPLE PREFER TO HAVE THEIR BANKING TRANSACTIONS EITHER THROUGH BANK ITSELF OR ATMs....EVEN AN AGED PERSON PREFERS TO STAND IN A QUEUE FOR A LONG HOURS EITHER HE/SHE IS IN BANK OR ATMs CENTERS....
IT WILL DEFINITELY TAKE SOME TIME FOR THE PEOPLE TO KNOW ABOUT M-BANKING TECHNOLOGY.

Not for now. No doubt technology makes life simple but for a country like India implementing M-banking in a stage where people still do not know all the options that are available in their mobile, then how they will cope with this new technology. Even now a days all most everybody has his own ATM card but till now most of the people do not what are the options available except cash withdrawal or balance inquiry. There are several aspects are there for which i said it as "Not for NOW". Another most important thing is that, most of we Indians, do not dare to try something new and when there is a question of money matter then, NO WAY to try something new that we do not know. Again there is a great fear of leaking of information and another fear is that if we use, we'll lose our money. This is all about the fear in a common man but another most important thing is creating awareness. First of all people should know what are the features available and how it'll be advantageous for them. If somebody doesn't know how it'll be beneficial for him then he treats it as an unnecessary burden. Here I'll give an example, now public sector banks are also introducing their mobile banking but my question is whether all the staffs of that particular organization aware of its facility, features & use?? The answer will be surely NO.If they are not then, how will they make a common man aware of this new technology!!

banking on mobile, an idea which good, but at the same time we have to figure out that how many customers we have who will going you use this service. m banking is a service which will going to be utilized by a very limited segment of customers. one important issue that cant be ignored is of faith and compatibility of customers with this service (illiteracy and believe over tangible transactions rather than on internet). at last i must say that its a great idea but after 10years, not now.

i agree with sridevi and sujatha. It may be due to the in born (natural) doubts we have for anything new ( be it technology or field) and we lack the original adventurism our forefathers had. But its picking up slowly and we can expect much transformation in 2011

Most Indians still donot know how to use ATM machines and how to do E-banking. Being a member of this generation i learnt to use ATM machines few days back only. M-banking still take another 5 years to develop in our country as Indian are not such good in utilising the technologies they always have some kind of fear in their deep heart such as leaking of informations as MR. Natteraja mentioned.

I think operability of mobile phone set is very important in this business. Internet & software enabling this transaction with bankers / tellers needs to be streamlined so that, it is accepted by all as we have a browser set to skim through. At present, we have paucity of Hand set, teller machine, software for mobile phones.

Thanks for considering me worth of this topic and I agree with you sujatha, the things of concern are safety and security of money and second thing is about 50 to 60 % of mobile user do't know the complete functioning of Mobiles, for them it is only means to communication and it will a long time to be popular among the masses....

Security of data still big blank. Banks and mobile operators shall clear the doubts of their customers on security of their account details and the measures they are taking for protecting the interests of their customers. But, the results are showing a negative trend. I doubt, even in 2011, it may not likely to happen.
