2. Introduction :

❖ The first Royal Enfield motorcycle was built in 1901.

❖ The Enfield Cycle Company is responsible for the design and original production of
the Royal Enfield Bullet, the longest-lived motorcycle design in history.

❖ Royal Enfield was a brand name under which The Enfield Cycle Company Limited of
Redditch, Worcestershire sold motorcycles, bicycles, lawnmowers and stationary
engines which they had manufactured.

❖ Enfield Cycle Company also used the brand name "Enfield" without the "Royal"

❖ Royal Enfield is a well-known automobile company that primarily deals in


manufacturing of motor cycles and cycles.

❖ Apart from that, it produces lawnmowers, Stationery engines and rifles. The company’s

company limited that ceased to exist after 1971.
2.1 History :

❖ “Made like a gun”, I don’t think RE needs an introduction. Bikes from the brand have
a cult of their own.

❖ People owning a Royal Enfield have a different class and status in society. But many
of us might not be familiar with the path RE had to tread on in order to become a cult
in a country of vivid cults.

❖ Let us take a look at the history of one of India’s most loved motorcycle brand.

❖ In 1955, the Redditch company partnered with Madras Motors in India to form
'Enfield India' to assemble, under licence, the 350 cc Royal Enfield Bullet motorcycle
in Madras (now called Chennai).

❖ The tooling was sold to Enfield India so that they could manufacture components. By
1962, all components were made in India.

❖ In the mid-1960s, as the British manufacturers tried desperately to survive the tsunami
wave of Japanese motorcycles entering the market, a British bike called the Royal
Enfield

❖ Interceptor was making waves of its own. Powered by a 736cc parallel twin, it was
reportedly capable of running the quarter-mile in less than 13 seconds, and so of
course it appealed to us power-hungry Americans.

❖ Unfortunately its heyday was short-lived, as Royal Enfield declared bankruptcy in


1967 and closed its doors for good in 1970.

❖ The Interceptor disappeared into history (for a while), but thanks to the remnants of
colonialism, a fortuitous joint venture and a motorcycle called the Bullet, the Royal
Enfield name lived on

Royal Enfield’s design to production process explained.

❖ In a bid to dominate the mid-size motorcycle market across the globe, the Indian bike
maker is designing a range of new bikes.

❖ The design team explains the process from drawing board to production.

❖ Royal Enfield has a technology centre at Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground near


Leicester, UK.

❖ It is a team of 160 people linked directly to RE’s world-wide HQs and three Indian
factories.

❖ For creating a bike, they first gather ideas from customers, sales team, designers,
marketing, press, etc.
❖ These ideas enter a document system and from there the initial sketches and projects
come together.

❖ Keeping in mind what the customer wants, they have a ‘gate’ process for each stage of
development.

❖ The gate process helps with constant checks of risks and right decisions.

❖ Designing a motorcycle at Royal Enfield doesn’t start with a blank sheet of paper.

❖ They have a clearly defined set of goals that they put together from an initial idea.

❖ The Industrial Design team makes 2D & 3D sketches and renders and then the
Engineering Design team look after chassis, engine and electrical aspects.

❖ Once the project gets a green light, they all work in the same direction.

❖ A new bike with a new engine could take up to 4 years to develop from scratch to
production. However, not every motorcycle is all-new and it takes significantly less
time than that.

❖ However, it takes a lot of investment to make one motorcycle. It is more than 10 million
Euros (Rs. 80 crores) to develop a bike.
❖ They try to get to the stage of testing production processes as soon as possible.

❖ Royal Enfield doesn’t want their bikes to look old-fashioned.


❖ They believe their bikes have a retro look and universal appeal. They like their bikes to
look authentic but fit for purpose today.

❖ They aim to satisfy customers in all areas of the world but some models are popular in
one market than the other. There are different stresses and strains for bikes in India and
in Europe.
❖ In India, the road quality is poor but the speeds are lower. In Europe, people are riding
faster and they are accelerating and braking hard.

❖ Royal Enfield does their research with consumer clinics, focus groups, dealer clinics
and informal research including customisations.

❖ In India, the Classic 350 is widely used for commuting while the 650s are considered
as large capacity bikes. The latter in Europe is considered as an entry-level offering.

❖ One thing is common across Royal Enfield customers is that all of them want
characterful and soulful motorcycles that do more than move you from A to B.

❖ The bike maker believes the most difficult step in the design process is defining the
product to ensure it’s what the consumer will want. Attracting young audience is the
key to the whole industry.

❖ Customisation for Royal Enfield is a quick way to test a concept using an existing
platform. RE bikes are quick and easy to customise as the electrics are simple.
Professional builders can create something very quickly.
CHAPTER 2 :-REVIEW OF LITERATURE

Mr. Faisal.T (2014), “A Study on Customer Perception towards Royal Enfield with
Special Reference to Malappuram District” we found out that it was undertaken with the
objective of finding out customer’s perception level on Royal Enfield bikes. It is
felicitously observed from the study that the most customers of Royal Enfield are highly
satisfied in almost all areas offered by Royal Enfield. This study shows that by improving
fuel efficiency, service and advertisement and by introducing new models capable to
compete with the fresher in the market.

Krishnan Santana. R (2007), “Issue and future of the two wheeler industry” looks into
various issues faced by the two wheelers industry. In terms of competition, the industry is
likely to face competition from used cars and low cost cars. Other issues are the declining
margins due to increased cost of material and shift in customer demand to electric
vehicles to save patrol. In terms of growth, there are expectations that the industry is
likely to grow by 5%, most of the growth is likely to come from motorcycles. Some of
the Indian motorcycle companies are also likely to set up plants in foreign countries to
meet export needs.

Mrs. R. Kanaka Rathinam (2013), “A study on customer’s preference towards Royal


Enfield Motorbikes in Coimbatore city “this article provides detailed information about
the preference of customer towards Royal Enfield bikes. In this article the author has
mentioned how preference is influenced by culture, social, personal and psychological
factors lastly with help of questionnaire method it was
found that Royal Enfield is chosen by most of customers because of appearance,
performance, and design.

Omesh Chandra (2011), “A study of consumer buying behavior towards bikes”. The
main theme of the study is to the rapid changing perception of consumers towards power
segment bikes to study the satisfaction level of consumers, who use bikes. Information
was collected from a sample size of 50 respondents in four districts. The tool used in this
study is chi-square tests. The study had found that 53% respondents are highly
satisfaction with their bikes. 47% respondents are satisfied with their bikes. Finally it was
conducted that most of the respondents were aware of many popular brands of bikes.

Mrs. G. Murali Manokari (2013), “A Study on Customer’s Preference towards Royal


Enfield Motorbikes in Coimbatore City, Tamil Nadu”, Findings from the study of this
literature of research shows how much customers prefer and their satisfaction level
towards various aspects of Royal Enfield, which are mostly influenced by socio-cultural,
psychological & personal factors. Customers of Royal Enfield conveys, that in order to
capture the market, the manufacturers have to give the best combination of looks, quality,
cost efficiency good features, safety, and performance. This reason has also proved to be
the reason behind the decade’s long history of the Company.

Dr Debasis Tripathy (2016), “A Study on Consumer Satisfaction of Two Wheeler


Bikes”, it studies the satisfaction level of consumers, who uses bikes. This study
concludes that HONDA, BAJAJ and HERO shows maximum satisfaction in respect to
mileage, power, design, and technology and after sales service whereas TVS attains least
satisfaction. The TVS should work extensively on the parameters taken in the study. It
showed that consumers compare each factor deeply and select a suitable bike
accordingly; therefore companies should
keep this in mind and produce such machines which don’t create any disappointment in
even one field.

Sr. Sony Mariya (2018), “Customer satisfaction level towards royal Enfield bikes” this
study has shown about the preference of Royal Enfield bikes. It was found that the
ultimate users of these bikes are students who want to maintain image and also to be
comfortable. It is found that sound (important for bullets) is lower than old models so
they have to maintain quality models. It is the most preferred bike in India and also it has
many loyal customers especially young generations. So, we can say perception of
customer on purchase of Royal Enfield bikes is good or we can say excellent.

Kottala Sri Yogi (2016), “An empirical and fuzzy logic approach to product quality and
purchase intention of customers in two wheelers “Customer perceptions while purchasing
a Royal Enfield or any two-wheeler has been analyzed by different manufacturers
through various ways. In this article the author uses fuzzy logic approach to accomplish
the objective. Royal Enfield has given priority in high trade in value, ease of modification
etc. this study has helped to study why people choose royal Enfield over other bikes
available in the market and the reasons like status, muscular, average miles of bike etc.

Ms. Ameer Asra Ahmed (2013), “A Study on Customer Satisfaction Level of Royal
Enfield Bullet “this article has given information about both perception and satisfaction
towards Royal Enfield bikes. The Royal Enfield bikes are most preferred by middle aged
and younger generation dominated by male. Their perception towards bike is
muscularity, strong performance, mileage, and status. Royal Enfield bikes and its parts
are available everywhere. So Royal Enfield is preferred more and chosen more than other
bikes.

R. Amesaveni, R Koila (2014), “A study relating to consumer satisfaction level of


working women towards two wheelers”. From his study majority of the
working women’s in rural India gave importance to the quality of the product, which also
showed that the income level of the rural consumer was increasing, which also generate more
consumption and purchasing power for the consumers. An organization should place
emphasis on introducing new model in the society and manufacture two wheelers that give
good mileage.

Operational Department
Introduction:

❖ This paper is talking about the study on organisation culture on the Royal Enfield and
whether the organisation culture is good or bad in now a days and what are the reason
involving the successful for Royal Enfield Customers overall discover no deficiency of
promotions on different media stations, for example, TV, sites, radio and daily papers,
about various administrations that are accessible available to them.

❖ Usually, information that not all administrations can maintain themselves in this
focused worldwide commercial centre.

❖ Numerous entrepreneurial and set up associations frequently neglect to persuade the


customer of the utility and estimation of their purported new and progressive
administrations.

❖ Regardless of what amount of exertion an association puts into its administration, for
what reason should customers buy it unless they are persuaded of the esteem and utility?

❖ In basic words, we are proposing that it is the survival of the 'fittest' or rather the
survival of hierarchical endeavours that prelude their achievement in the worldwide
commercial centre by arranging themselves to what might 'fit the customer needs' and,
from that point, convey quality administrations that meet those recognized needs.

❖ The logic of value as 'conformance to necessities'(Crosby, 1979) applies in the


administrations segment.

❖ It is difficult to 'comply with prerequisites', unless the administration giving association


knows the customer necessities.
❖ Thus, associations need to take after the adage of’ remaining nearby to the
customers' (Peters and Waterman, 1982), keeping in mind the end goal to find
the prerequisites of the customers.

❖ Once the customer necessities are comprehended through compelling business


sector introduction, associations must fit in with the benchmarks for
guaranteeing the customer view of high caliber.

❖ While sales of bikes up to 350cc are down 5% in October, those above 350cc,
including the 650 twins are up 160% (7,707 units). This segment also saw 58% YoY
growth in April-October with 53,220 units.

❖ Festival-led demand in October has led to a spike in sales for some automakers and
among two-wheeler OEMs, Royal Enfield has benefited substantially to the extent that
its inventory level is down to about three weeks.

❖ In fact, the situation has resulted in a stock-out situation in many key markets in West
and North India.

❖ This latest update comes from a report released by Centrum Research. Interestingly,
apex dealer body FADA has for long been urging OEMs to reduce their piled-up
inventories, which had reached alarming proportions in the past 6-8 months.
❖ “Dealer checks suggest inventory stock-out in key markets of West and North India,”
reveals the Centrum Research report.

❖ A query to Royal Enfield as to how it plans to address the stock-out situation in key
markets remained unanswered till the time of this report.

❖ Monthly despatch data released by Royal Enfield on Friday (November 1) indicates a


total of 71,964 units in October 2019, a YoY growth of 2 percent (October 2018: 70,451
units) and a MoM growth of 31 percent (September 2019: 54,858 units).

❖ The company further reported that sales of the motorcycles up to 350cc have declined
by 5 percent but sales of bikes above 350cc, which includes the 650 twins -- Interceptor
650 and the Continental GT 650 -- have registered a YoY growth of 160 percent with
7,707 units.
❖ This segment also saw a 58 percent YoY growth in the April to October 2019 period
with 53,220 units sold.
❖ The 650 twins’ Diwali sales would be just what the doctor ordered for Royal Enfield,
which has found the going somewhat tough in the face of growing competition.

❖ According to FADA's advisory note in mid-October, "Two-wheeler inventory, despite


factoring in the festive season demand, continues to be very high and is a very big cause
of concern.

❖ FADA urges all OEMs to be judicious in their assessment of the retail conditions and
accordingly regulate their wholesale billing as the demand situation continues to be in
a dynamic state.

❖ If retail growth is projected beyond a realistic situation, it can once again lead to a high
inventory situation in this tricky phase of BS-VI transition which is just 5 months
away."

recognized they could leverage that investment to create robust AR experiences with
Vuforia Studio, part of the Vuforia Enterprise AR suite.

existing 3D CAD models into immersive, dynamic AR experiences.

Meteor motorcycle during the training event.

on different parts of the motorcycle to view details about key features, watch videos
describing the technology, and more.

the knowledge transfer of complex subjects and help them to better understand and
