TELECOM MARKET
The unprecedented growth in the mobile market is, perhaps, the most vivid facet of
India's economic transformation since the mid 1990s. Mobile technology and
services came to India less than a decade ago. In the early days, a mobile was seen
to be a fashion statement for the rich. Today, it is accepted as a basic
communication medium for all socio-economic segments. As the pioneer and
frontrunner, Airtel has been instrumental in leading and ushering in the mobile
revolution in India.
The Indian mobile market is, today, amongst the fastest growing and the most
competitive in the world.
There were 34.6 million mobile phone subscribers in the country as of April 2004
(Source: Cellular Operators' Association of India and Association of Basic Telecom
Operators). With approximately seven million subscribers, Airtel commands nearly
20% share of the market - making it the number one brand in the country. Airtel's
world class service and innovative products have enabled it to establish this
position of leadership.

ACHIEVEMENTS
The market. An Airtel's journey to leadership began in Delhi in 1995. Since then,
Airtel has established itself across India in sixteen states covering a
Population of over 600 million people. Airtel will soon cover the entire country
through a process of acquisitions and green field projects. With a presence in over
1,400 towns, Airtel today has the largest network capacity in the country.
In the last nine years Airtel has achieved many firsts and unique records: it was the
first to launch nationwide roaming operations, it was the first to cross the one million
and the five million customer marks. It was also the first to launch services overseas.
There are other 'firsts' credited to Airtel - many of them in the area of innovative
products and services. Today, Airtel innovates in almost everything that it presents to.
Excellent example is Easy Charge - India's first paperless electronic recharging
facility for prepaid customers. As evidence of its fine record, Airtel has also been
conferred with numerous awards. It won the prestigious Techies Award for 'being the
best cellular services provider' for four consecutive years between 1997 and 2000 - a
record that is still unmatched. And in 2003, it received the Voice & Data Award for
being 'India's largest cellular service provider', amongst others.
As part of its continuing expansion, Airtel has invested over Rs. 1,065 billion in
creating a new telecom infrastructure. In 2003/04, Bharti Tele-Ventures earned a
gross profit of Rs. 16 billion on revenues of Rs. 50 billion.

Title of the Project is the “Measurement of customer satisfaction on STD/PCO Services
offered by Bharti Televentures in Bhopal with respect to Tata Indicom” it is a very broad
aspect init self. Acquiring of the customer is what every Business prime motive is, it is the
only thing on which any Company can make its existence in the market. The existence of
the company is detrained by the total market share the company is holding as compared to
its competitors, which in turn is the total number of the customer the Company is having.
Fruitful customers are the way of profitability for the Business in future. Telecom sector is
a field in which a direct interaction with the people is a part of the daily work schedule.
Hence a proper systematic and impressive way of handling the customer is required in this
field. Any person who is working in this field need to identify the requirement of the
customer, he/she should be able to read the mind of the person sitting in front should be
able to judge whether the person in front can be our customer or not. Hence a good unique
way of convincing them, making them see things our way and being good enough in
reading the needs and wants of the customer, is what which is required in this project.
As my project is basically acquiring the home potential customer and selling the product
to them so the main idea behind these is that customer can utilize his money more
efficiently and properly without any wastage, So their needs should be provoked and this
way they can be converted into customers for the Pri- Paid plans.
LIMITATIONS
Being a trainee there are certain information which I am not exposed to. Thus I respect
and understand the need of maintaining confidentiality in certain matters.
INC SAGAR
27
Some of the other limitations and the problems in the OJT is that the most of the
people are not aware about the need and importance of the better services which the
companies are offering. And the limitation of my project is that the companies are not
ready to provide data for the project because of their privacy policies.
The product may not suit the requirement of the prospect
Strong competition with other telecom companies
Buying power of the customer
As there are many players present in the market so we have to face may questions
from the customers.
Corporate are too busy to lend us their precious time.
Time is being big constraint.
Geographical limitation as Bhopal is big place so it difficult to visit all those places.
Financial limitation.
Company’s Distribution channel is not responding properly.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
INC SAGAR
28
The research approach for this study was conclusive research. Conclusive research are
designed to help executives to choose among various possible alternatives to make a
viable business decision. Further this research was of descriptive type, which is an
offshoot of conclusive research. The problem for this research was non-operating in
nature The data both primary and secondary data, the source was one hundred respondents
for primary data. For the proper analysis of data simple statistical techniques such as
percentage were use. It helped in making more accurate generalization from the data
available.
SAMPLE SIZE
The method used for sample technique was random sampling method. This method was
used because it was not know previously as to whether a particular person will be asked to
fill the questionnaire.
SIZE OF SAMPLE:
The population of the sample would be 200 respondents.
INC SAGAR

DATA COLLECTION
Source of Data for this project primary & secondary only. In reference to the theoretical
concept as well as for information are collected through secondary sources from paper
published material i.e. newspaper, journal and magazine & from printed electronic media
i.e. internet websites. The primary data was collected through questionnaire filled from the
respondents.
TOOLS OF ANALYSIS
To know the response. I have used the questionnaire method in sample survey. If one
wishes to find what people think or know, the logical procedure is to ask them. This has
led marketing researchers to use the questionnaire technique for collecting data more than
any other method. In this method questionnaire were distributed to the respondents and
they were asked to answer questions in the questionnaire. The questionnaires were
structured non-disguised questionnaire because the questions, which the questionnaire
contained, were arranged in a specific order besides every question asked were logical for
the study, no question can be termed as irrelevant. The questionnaire, were non-disguised
because the questionnaire were constructed so that the objective is clear to the respondent.
The respondents were aware of the objective. They knew why they were asked to fill the
questionnaire.

Objective of Research
The purpose of research is to discover answers to questions through the application of

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
CUSTOMER SATISFICTION
It's a well known fact that no business can exist without customers. In the business
of Website design, it's important to work closely with your customers to make sure the site
or system you create for them is as close to their requirements as you can manage.
Because it's critical that you form a close working relationship with your client, customer
service is of vital importance. What follows are a selection of tips that will make your
clients feel valued, wanted and loved.
This is the most daunting and downright scary part of interacting with a
customer. It's important to meet your customers face to face at least once or even
twice during the course of a project.
My experience has shown that a client finds it easier to relate to and work with
someone they've actually met in person, rather than a voice on the phone or
someone typing into an email or messenger program. When you do meet them,
be calm, confident and above all, take time to ask them what they need. I believe
that if a potential client spends over half the meeting doing the talking, you're
well on your way to a sale.
INC SAGAR
32
2. Respond to Messages Promptly & Keep Your Clients Informed
This goes without saying really. We all know how annoying it is to wait days for
a response to an email or phone call. It might not always be practical to deal with
all customers' queries within the space of a few hours, but at least email or call
them back and let them know you've received their message and you'll contact
them about it as soon as possible. Even if you're not able to solve a problem right
away, let the customer know you're working on it.
You can hear a smile through the phone. This is very true. It's very important to
be friendly, courteous and to make your clients feel like you're their friend and
you're there to help them out. There will be times when you want to beat your
clients over the head repeatedly with a blunt object - it happens to all of us. It's
vital that you keep a clear head, respond to your clients' wishes as best you can,
and at all times remain polite and courteous.
This may not be too important when you're just starting out, but a clearly defined
customer service policy is going to save you a lot of time and effort in the long
run. If a customer has a problem, what should they do? If the first option doesn't
work, then what? Should they contact different people for billing and technical
enquiries? If they're not satisfied with any aspect of your customer service, who
should they tell?
There's nothing more annoying for a client than being passed from person to
person, or not knowing who to turn to. Making sure they know exactly what to
do at each stage of their enquiry should be of utmost importance. So make sure
your customer service policy is present on your site -- and anywhere else it may
be useful.
INC SAGAR
33
5. Attention to Detail (also known as 'The Little Niceties')
Have you ever received a Happy Birthday email or card from a company you
were a client of? Have you ever had a personalised sign-up confirmation email
for a service that you could tell was typed from scratch? These little niceties can
be time consuming and aren't always cost effective, but remember to do them.
Even if it's as small as sending a Happy Holidays email to all your customers, it's
something. It shows you care; it shows there are real people on the other end of
that screen or telephone; and most importantly, it makes the customer feel
welcomed, wanted and valued.
6. Anticipate Your Client's Needs & Go Out Of Your Way to Help Them
Out:-
Sometimes this is easier said than done! However, achieving this supreme level
of understanding with your clients will do wonders for your working
relationship.
It's possible this is the most important point in this article. The simple message:
when you promise something, deliver. The most common example here is project
delivery dates.
Clients don't like to be disappointed. Sometimes, something may not get done, or
you might miss a deadline through no fault of your own. Projects can be late,
technology can fail and sub-contractors don't always deliver on time. In this case
a quick apology and assurance it'll be ready ASAP wouldn't go amiss.

SUGGESTIONS
1. Newspaper Articles:
There should be articles related with the Telecom Sector in the daily news papers
because almost every educated person comes across it every day. It can help in
increasing the awareness level of the Telecom Sector among the people.
2. Broadcast Media:
Radio: There should be various programs regarding the Telecom Sector either in
the evening or in the morning because it can serve as a powerful tool to make
awareness. The daily analysis of the Telecom Sector must be broadcasted during
these programs. The information may constitute of the daily prices of various
Telecom, information regarding those Telecom which are generating maximum
cheaper etc.
Television: It is also one of the most powerful tools to spread the messages since
almost all the houses in the world own television.
The awareness programs regarding the Telecom Sector can be broad castled on
various channels. Even this media can help to create awareness very fast as compared
to any other media.
3. Some awareness campaign should be launched to make the people aware of the
Telecom Sector instruments.
