INTRODUCTION
One of the major industrial sectors in India is the automobile sector. Subsequent to the liberalization, the automobile sector has been aptly described as the sunrise sector of the Indian economy as this sector has witnessed tremendous growth. Automobile Industry was delicensed in July 1991 with the announcement of the New Industrial Policy. The passenger car industry was, however, delicensed in 1993. No industrial licence is required for setting up of any unit for manufacture of automobiles except in some special cases. The norms for Foreign Investment and import of technology have also been progressively liberalized over the years for manufacture of vehicles including passenger cars in order to make this sector globally competitive. At present 100% Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is permissible under automatic route in this sector including passenger car segment. The import of technology/technological up gradation on the royalty payment of 5% without any duration limit and lump sum payment of USD 2 million is also allowed under automatic route in this sector. With the gradual liberalization of the automobile sector since 1991, the number of manufacturing facilities in India has grown progressively. The study of customer satisfaction level of Hyundai motors is the study of satisfaction and delightedness to the Hyundai motors. This study helps to know the likeliness, brand image, strength & weakness of the product. This determines the sales promotion. This project would be beneficial to know the feedback of the customers & also the way to provide better facilities and services to the customers. Since the four wheelers are generally used by high profile people, they look towards the luxurious look, safety and the beautiful interior. In this project their satisfaction towards their demand is checked out.

ABOUT HMC

Established in 1967, Hyundai Motor Co. has grown into the Hyundai-Kia Automotive Group which was ranked as the worlds fifth-largest automaker in 2007 and includes over two dozen auto-related subsidiaries and affiliates. Employing over 75,000 people worldwide, Hyundai Motor posted sales of US$74.9 billion in 2007 on a consolidated-basis and US$32.8 billion on a non-consolidated basis (using the average currency exchange of 929 won per US dollar). Hyundai vehicles are sold in 193 countries through some 6,000 dealerships and showrooms The Hyundai Motor Company, a division of the Hyundai Kia Automotive Group, is South Koreas largest and the worlds fifth largest automaker in terms of units sold per year. Headquartered in Seoul, Hyundai operates the worlds largest integrated automobile manufacturing facility in Ulsan, which is capable of producing 1.6 million units annually. The Hyundai logo, a slanted, stylized 'H', is said to be symbolic of two people (the company and customer) shaking hands. Hyundai means "modernity" in Korean.

HISTORY Chung Ju-Yung founded the Hyundai Engineering and Construction Company in 1947. Hyundai Motor Company was later established in 1967. The companys first model, the Cortina, was released in cooperation with Ford Motor Company in 1968. In 1975, the Pony, the first Korean car, was released, with styling by Giorgio of Design and powertrain technology provided by Japans Mitsubishi Motors. Exports began in the following year to Ecuador and soon thereafter to the Benelux countries. In 1991, the company succeeded in developing its first proprietary gasoline engine,
C.I.M.D.R. Sangli_____________________________________________________________________ __Page 5

_____________________________________________________________________Shivaj i University, Kolhapur

the four-cylinder Alpha, and transmission, thus paving the way for technological independence.

In 1986, Hyundai began to sell cars in the United States, and the Excel was nominated "Best Product #10" by Fortune magazine, largely because of its affordability. The company began to produce models with its own technology in 1988, beginning with the midsize Sonata. In 1998, Hyundai began to overhaul its image in an attempt to establish itself as a world-class brand. Chung Ju Yung transferred leadership of Hyundai Motor to his son, Chung Mong Koo, in 1999. Hyundais parent company, Hyundai Motor Group, invested heavily in the quality, design, manufacturing, and long-term research of its vehicles. It added a 10-year or 100,000-mile (160,000 km) warranty to cars sold in the United States and launched an aggressive marketing campaign. In 2004, Hyundai was ranked second in "initial quality" in a survey/study by J.D. Power and Associates. Hyundai is now one of the top 100 most valuable brands worldwide. Since 2002, Hyundai has also been one of the worldwide official sponsors of the FIFA World Cup. In 2006, the South Korean government initiated an investigation of Chung Mong Koos practices as head of Hyundai, suspecting him of corruption. On April 28, 2006, Chung was arrested, and charged for embezzlement of 100 billion won (US$106 million), with Hyundai Vice Chairman and CEO, Kim Dong-jin taking over as head of the company.

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
Satisfaction level is the level of persons felt state resulting from comparing products perceived performance (or outcome) in relation to the persons expectation. Thus satisfaction level is function of difference between perceived performance & expectation. A customer could experience one of three broad levels of satisfaction: 1) If the performance falls short of expectations, the customer is dissatisfied. 2) If the performance matches to the expectations of the customer, then the customer is satisfied. 3) If the performance exceeds the expectations of the customer, the customer is highly satisfied, pleased or delighted. But how do the customer expectations? Expectations are formed on the basis of the buyers past buying experience statements made by the friends & associates, & marketer & competitor information & promises. If marketers raise the expectations too high the buyer is likely to be disappointed. Some of the todays most successful companies are raising expectation & delivering the performance. The companies are aiming high because customers who are just satisfied will still find it easy to switch supplier when a better offer comes along. The fact is that high satisfaction or delight creates an emotional affinity with the brand, not just a rational preference, and this creates customers high loyalty. Companies seeking to win in todays markets must track their customers expectations perceived company performance, and customer satisfaction. They need to monitor this for the competitors as well. Companies that achieve high customer
C.I.M.D.R. Sangli_____________________________________________________________________ __Page 20

_____________________________________________________________________Shivaj i University, Kolhapur

satisfaction ratings make sure that their target market knows it. The customer cantered firms seeks to create high customer satisfaction it is not out to maximize customer satisfaction. 4) First they can increase the customer satisfaction by lowering the price or increasing its services, but this may result in low profits. 5) Second, the company might be able to increase its profitability in the other ways, such as by improving its manufacturing or investing more in R&D.
6) Third; the company has many stakeholders including employees, dealers,

suppliers & stockholders. Spending more to increase the customer satisfaction would divert funds from increasing the satisfaction of the other partners. Ultimately, the company must operate on the philosophy that it is trying to deliver a high level of customer satisfaction level subject to delivering at least acceptable levels of the satisfaction to the other stockholders within the constraints of its total resources. Methods of tracking and measuring customer satisfaction Complaint and suggestions system A customer cantered organization would make it easy for its customer to deliver suggestions and complaints. Many restaurants and hotels provide forms for guests to report likes and dislikes. A hospital could place suggestion boxes in the corridors, supply comment cards to the exiting patients, and hire patient advocate to handle patient grievances. Some customer cantered companies P&G, General Electric, and Whirlpool establish customer hot lines with a toll free 800 telephone numbers to maximize the ease with which the customers can inquire, make suggestions, or complain. These information flows provide these companies with many good ideas and enable them to act more rapidly to resolve the problems. Customer satisfaction surveys A company must not conclude that it can get a full picture of customer satisfaction & dissatisfaction by simply a complaint & suggestion system. A study shows that customers are dissatisfied with one out of the four and less than 5% of the dissatisfied customers will complain. Customers may feel that their complaints are minor, or that they will be made to be stupid, or that no remedy will be offered. Most
C.I.M.D.R. Sangli_____________________________________________________________________ __Page 21

_____________________________________________________________________Shivaj i University, Kolhapur

customers will buy less or switch the suppliers rather than complain. The result is that company has needlessly lost the customer. Therefore, companies cannot use the complaint levels as a measure of customer satisfaction. Responsive companies obtain a direct measure of customer satisfaction by conducting periodic surveys. They send questionnaires or make telephone calls to random sample of their recent customer to find out how they feel about various aspects of the companys performance. Customers satisfaction can be measured in number of ways. It can be measured directly by asking: indicate how satisfied you are with the service X on the following scale: highly satisfied (directly reported satisfaction). Respondents can be asked as well to rate how much they are expected of as certain attribute and also how much they are experienced (derived satisfaction). Still another method is to ask respondents to list any problems they have had with the offer and to list any improvements they could suggest (problem analysis). Finally, companies could respondents to rate various elements of the offer in the terms of the importance of the each element and how well the organization performed each element (importance/ performance ratings).this last method helps the company to know if it is underperforming on important elements and over performing on relatively unimportant elements. While, collecting customer satisfaction data, it would also be useful to ask additional questions to measure the customers repurchase intention; this will normally be high if the customer satisfaction is high. Lost Customer Analysis Companies should contact customers who have stopped buying have switched to another supplier to learn why this is happened. When IBM loses a customer, they mount a thorough effort to learn where they failed is their price too high, their service deficient, their products unreliable, and so on. Not only is it important to conduct exit interviews but also to monitor the customer loss rate which, if it is increasing, clearly indicates that the company is failing to satisfy its customers.

C.I.M.D.R. Sangli_____________________________________________________________________ __Page 22

_____________________________________________________________________Shivaj i University, Kolhapur

Some cautions in measuring Customer Satisfaction When customers rate their satisfaction with an element of the companys performance, say delivery, we need to recognize that customers will vary in how they define good delivery; it could mean early delivery, on-time delivery, order completeness, and so on. Yet if the company had to spell out every element in detail, customers would face a huge questionnaire. We must also recognize that two customers can report being highly satisfied for a different reasons. One may be easily satisfied most of the times and the other might be hard to please on this occasion. Companies should also note that managers and salespersons can manipulate their rating on the customers on customer satisfaction. They can be especially nice to customers just before the survey. They can also try to exclude unhappy customers from the included in the survey. One of the danger is that if the customer know that the company will go out of its way to please the customers, some customers may want to express high dissatisfaction(even if satisfied) in order to receive more concessions.

SUGGESTIONS
In this era of tough competition in the market it is compulsory for company to provide some types of facilities to the customers to acquire the best level of Customer satisfaction. During this study I came across some points which if consider would surely enhance the market share and customer satisfaction. Company should design new and more attractive policies for credit policies cash discounts warranty terms

Company should try to enhance its post sales services as preventive measures. The preventive maintenance should be monitored on regular basis. Price features: - as Hyundai cars are more costly as compared to other competitors, if they want to capture the automobile market, they have to reduce the price slightly.

For Santro: - Power windows are needed. For i-10, more power in c.c. is needed and for verna inbuilt spoiler is needed For Accent: - inbuilt LPG gas kit & music system is required. Late service, loose delivery and unviability of spare parts should be avoided. The quick, fast and timely service facility is to be maintained Free check-up camps, more free servicing and extended warranty are needed to attract more customer We found that promotion greatly affect the market,so in my opinion company should promot its product regularly by making new and people attracting promotional strategies to increase its sale.

Personal touch with the customers: Asking the customer to come regularly for servicing even after the warrenty period. Educating the customers:Jaya Hyundai should educate the customer about the maintenance of vehile

It was also found out that Jaya Hyundai Pvt. Ltd.

The study reveals that more attention should be paid on the professionals like Doctors, Engineers, Advocates and C.A.s as they are the target customers.
As the Hyundai cars are slightly high priced, in order to capture the

automobile market, they must reduce the price slightly up to 10%. The company should satisfy or even delight the customers with its product quality like interiors and look and after sales services like warranty & servicing so that they can capture most of the market. Company should try to enhance its post sales services as preventive measures for maximising the satisfaction level. Company should design new and attractive offers as well as policies such as warranty so as to satisfy the existing customers and to attract the prospective customers
Free check-up camps, more free servicing and extended warranty are needed

to attract more customer The Hyundai cars are showing good response, future demand is going to rise in the market. So company should try to make the cars more demand
