Abstract

The present study evaluates the customer perceptions of service quality in select private sector banks. Data was collected from 200 customers of Private Sector Banks using structured questionnaire. Gap analysis and Multi regression were used for analysis of data. The result shows that the dimension of service quality such as Empathy and Accessibility has more gap, as the customer expectations are high to their perceived service. The result also indicates that Empathy-Reliability-Assurance positively influences the service quality. The study implies that bank should reduce the service gap to deliver superior quality of service to retain existing customers as well as to attract new customers.
