Abstract
Performance Appraisal (PA) is a systematic, periodic, and impartial rating of an employee’s excellence in matters pertaining to their present job and their potential for a better job. In the hyper-competitive banking sector of 2026, the appraisal system has evolved from a simple "annual review" into a continuous performance management cycle. For an institution like Kotak Mahindra Bank (KMB), which operates in a high-pressure environment involving stringent regulatory compliance and aggressive sales targets, the effectiveness of the appraisal system is the primary determinant of organizational health.
