CHAPTER-II
INDUSTRY PROFILE:

The two wheeler industry has been going steadily over the years all over the world. India
is not an exception for that. Today India is the second largest manufactures of two
wheelers in the world. It stands next only to Japan and China in terms of number of two
wheelers produced and sold. Until 1990 geared scooters dominated the two wheelers
market so much so that their sales equalled the combined sales of Motor cycles and
Mopeds. Today the customer preferences have shifted from geared scooters to motorcycles
and also to an extent to the premium end scooters. With rising fuel cost and more recently
stringent emission norms imposed by the government, there is a distinct consumer
preference for high efficiency. The Honda story is the story of one man, Soichiro Honda,
and his unparalleled achievement of bringing motor cycles to the masses.

Honda was established upon the fundamental belief in the value of each individual. Based
on our philosophy, we respect independent spirit and freedom, equality and mutual trust of
human beings who work for or come in contact with our company. As such our
management policies focus on developing and enhancing the essential characteristics that
every individual possesses - capacity to think, reason, and most importantly - the ability to
dream. Being the largest producer of 2-wheelers and one of the most admired companies in
the world definitely thrills us. But what thrills our associates most is the 'Joy of Creating',
one of our missions at Honda, which promotes working for our own happiness. If you have
a passion for 2-wheelers and possess a challenging spirit, your abilities are more important
to us rather than which university you passed from.
India will be the biggest global market for Honda's two-wheeler business by 2015 before
eventually accounting for 30 per cent of its overall market share. At present, this is 13 per
cent but the company is going flat out with new product launches as part of an aggressive
growth strategy. The 110cc Dream Yuga motorcycle, unveiled at the Auto Expo here on
Thursday, will roll out this year for the mass market, a segment in which Honda's former
partner, the Honda group, rules the roost with the Splendour and Passion brands.

Mass market pricing:


The Yuga is expected to be priced competitively at around Rs 45,000, which could give the
company the much needed momentum in its motorcycle business. The other launches
included a new 110cc Dio scooter as well as the larger CBR150R and 250R bikes.
Officials said Honda R&D would now work closely with the Manesar operations of HMSI
(Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India), which would facilitate faster product launches in the
coming years. In addition, the company will increase the number of its zonal offices and
training centres keeping in mind the growing demand from smaller towns and the need to
be closer to this critical buyer base. Clearly, Honda is determined to make up the lost
numbers ceded to the Honda group, which works out toover five million units annually.
The revised strategy will call for an aggressive play in the pricing segment while offering
top quality products.

Global share
India will, in the process, take over from Indonesia and Vietnam as Honda's biggest two-
wheeler market over the next five years. As for the bigger goal of 30 per cent share in its
global business, Honda's annual two-wheeler volumes here would have to be in the region
of 10 million units annually. Observers believe this could become a reality by 2020. At
present, over four million units are in place from its three units in Manesar (the largest
with 1.6 million), the recently commissioned Rajasthan plant and the newly identified site
in Karnataka (with capacities of 1.2 million units each). The balance six million bikes and
scooters, in that case, will have to be generated from new facilities even as reports are
already doing the rounds that Honda is looking at options in the western and southern
regions post-2014.

Evolution of Two Wheeler Industry in India:


Two – wheeler segment one of the most important components of the automobile
sector that has undergone significance changes due to shift in policy environment. The
two-wheeler industry has been in existence in the country since 1955.It consists of three
segments viz. scooters, motorcycles and mopeds. In India there are some MNC’s and

Honda motors of Japan is not a new name in the two wheeler scenario
in the country, they were in a tie up with the Firodias owned Kinetic group.
However in the late 90s they parted ways after problems arose over issues like
introduction of new models, advertising expenditure, marketing strategies and
other related issues. In the mid 80 Honda motors of Japan joined hands with the
largest bicycle maker of India the Honda cycles to create Honda Honda which
in a couple of decades or so have gone on to
Become the single largest motorcycle company in the world. Though Honda has
come on its own on the Indian market yet it will be providing technological
support to Honda Honda for the next ten years. Thus presenting a unique situation in
which the company will be in direct competition with the company which it has

A. BACKGROUND AND INCEPTION:
The history of the Honda Motorcycle company began with an auto file and his dream
Japanese entrepreneur Soichiro Honda and loved motor vehicle almost since birth. When
he was fifteen, he becomes part of an auto motor repair shop, and the passion grew. His
greatest dream was to become a world-renowned car racer, and it was an ambition which
he would fulfil in time. But first, auto lover found himself employed as a technician.
During his free time, he natured his growing interest in motor vehicles by building race
cars and tooling with his Harley motorcycle.

Honda possessed a natural talent for anything motorized, and his skills allowed him to
open the doors of his very own repair shop in 1928. As his curiosity grew, attended
technical school in order to discover the perfect way to manufacture a piston ring. Honda
combined his inborn knowledge with his new technical knowledge to take the first
tentative step toward entrepreneurial success. He utilized what he had learned about piston
rings to from the Tokai Seiki Company.

In 1928, he secured his first of many patents (for automobile wheel spoke). Then, as World
War II ravaged Japan, Honda cornered the market on badly needed generator motors. His
growing capital allowed him to break ground on the Honda technical research laboratory
in 1946. Just two short year s the Honda motor company Ltd. Would open its doors in
Hamamatsu. The motor would never be capture of motorcycles, following the launch of
the company’s first success –“C” model motorcycle Honda and his then twenty employees
launched themselves into motor history with the three horsepower, two-speed transmission
“D” model after Jubitant employees allegedly shouted “It is like a dream” upon a
completion. And a dream it was. The “Dream D” was like a dream come true for the war-
recovering Japanese society: it provided a temporary escape from the surrounding troubles.
The overwhelming success of the “D” model of the later “E” model helped Honda build a
reputation for quality and design supremacy, even when an early-1950s economic
depression threatened to dim the company’s shining star.

By 1955, Honda had weathered the storm and saw his dream at least partially realized
when his company became the top motorcycle manufacturer in Japan. When those top
sales figured expanded to include the world in 1959, Honda began to realized the
enormous potential in global expansion of his empire, While his business associates
encouraged him to open a plant in either Europe or southern Asia, Honda saw potential his
another market: the American market.

According to Porter's Generic Strategies model, there are three basic strategic options
available to organizations for gaining competitive advantage. These are: Cost Leadership,
Differentiation and Focus.

Low cost provider strategy:


This is a strategy where a dealer a dealer aims to out-price its
competitors by reducing overheads or fixed cost associated with distribution. It
requires a focus on the efficiency of product line and service scale.

Maintaining this strategy requires a continuous search for cost reductions in all
aspects of the business. The associated distribution strategy is to obtain the most extensive
distribution possible. Promotional strategy often involves trying to make a virtue out of
low cost product features. To be successful, this strategy usually requires a considerable
market share advantage or preferential access to raw materials, components, labor, or some
other important input. Without one or more of these advantages, the strategy can easily be
mimicked by competitors. Successful implementation also benefits from:

 Process engineering skills


 Products designed for ease of manufacture
 Sustained access to inexpensive capital
 Close supervision of labour
 Tight cost control
 Incentives based on quantitative targets.
 Always ensure that the costs are kept at the minimum possible level.

2. The Differentiation Strategy

In a differentiation strategy a firm seeks to be unique in its industry along some


dimensions that are widely valued by buyers. It selects one or more attributes that many
buyers in an industry perceive as important, and uniquely positions itself to meet those
needs. It is rewarded for its uniqueness with a premium price.

3. The Focus Strategy

The generic strategy of focus rests on the choice of a narrow competitive scope within an
industry. The focuser selects a segment or group of segments in the industry and tailors its
strategy to serving them to the exclusion of others.

The focus strategy has two variants.

(a) In cost focus a firm seeks a cost advantage in its target segment, while
in (b) differentiation focus a firm seeks differentiation in its target segment. Both variants
of the focus strategy rest on differences between a focuser's target segment and other
segments in the industry. The target segments must either have buyers with unusual needs
or else the production and delivery system that best serves the target segment must differ
from that of other industry segments. Cost focus exploits differences in cost behaviour in
some segments, while differentiation focus exploits the special needs of buyers in certain
segments.

PROMOTIONAL TOOLS AND PROMOTIONAL STRATEGY

1. PERSONAL SELLING: It involves personal confrontation either by phone


or face it is an expensive and time-consuming tool of promoting the product.

2. ADVERTISING: It is defined as a paid non-personal communication with a


target (usually mass) market. It is cost effective and can reach a large number of
people. It can also be used for long term or short term objectives

There are various form or Medium through which advertise:

A. Broadcast Media:
 Televion
 Radio
 Cinema

B. Print Media:
 Newspaper
 Magazines
 Leaflets

C. Outdoor Media:
 Posters & Billboards

1. PUBLIC RELATION AND PUBLICITY;


Public relations are an umbrella term and refer to the totality of the

organization’s behaviour with respect to the society in which it operates.


The maybe regarded as good or bad and is reflected in the company’s
reputation and image.

2. SPONSORSHIP:
Sponsorship can be seen as a part of public relations and it is certainly the case
that some sponsorship goes on to generate positive publicity for the organization.

Factors that guide a marketer’s decision in selecting a promotion mix:

a) Nature of product

b) o ve ra ll m ar ke ti ng s t ra te gy

c) buyer readiness stage

d) p ro du ct li fe c yc le s ta ge

3. DISCOUNTS/OFFERS:

The company has started giving discounts and other offers to the customers
on the purchase of a new bike, for instance, with the World Cup offer, in which the
consumer was to get a 1 gm gold coin with every purchase.

Dealer is especially provides Price in Indian big Festivals like as Diwali, Dasara, Holi,
Christmas, etc. and provides one year Insurance free on purchase of new bikes. Because
This season consumers are like to shopping or tradition follows the Indian people.

But after all these schemes and benefits may be because of cut-throat competition in
the
segment with heavyweight competition such as Bajaj, kinetic, Yamaha, and TVS the
company (HONDA) officially says:

“Our aim is to proactively and consistently deliver value to the customer. We


are giving back to the customer after becoming successful. Most companies give
discounts only when their products are not doing well in the market. There is lots of
competition in the consumer focused while other companies Bajaj tends to be more
competitors focused segment, especially from Bajaj. But the reason for Honda’s success it
that we a r e competitor - focused.

PROMOTION POLICY:

 Company gives advertisement in different media vehicles time to time.


Like in TV. Magazines, newspaper, etc.

 Honda also organizes free service camps every year.

 Honda also takes art in trade fair.

 Honda with the help of ICICI Bank & HDFC Bank provides loan to the
