Behaviour of consumers plays a crucial role in marketing the FMCG used by consumers and it
depends on various factors. In the current era of globalization, the customer needs and tastes
are changing over time. Undeniably, the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) is contributing

factors. However, the effect of these factors affecting the decision of consumers would vary
from one product to another. Everyone is a consumer. We consume goods to survive in this
world every day. We consume the products based on our needs, preferences, tastes or liking
and buying capacities. What consumer is buying, how they are buying, from where they are
buying and when they are buying and how much quantity they are buying would depend on the
family sized, social and cultural background, perception, self-concept, attitudes, belief values,
motivation, social class, personality and various other factors. While buying any product, one
would think of whether or not to buy or from which place they want to buy. In certain areas,
there would be rich people who can afford to buy the items in huge quantities in shorter period
of time. In poor societies, people could not meet their day-to-day needs. The marketers would
understand the needs of every consumer and their buying behaviours. However, to understand
this, they have to do extensive research on internal and external environment and then come up
with right marketing. There are various factors that affect the consumer behaviour in the FMCG
sector. They are as follows:

continues to be terribly low compared to the opposite countries, it's among the quickest
growing retail markets, globally. The urban phase is that the biggest contributor to the
sector, accounting for two-third of total FMCG sector revenue. However, with the
emergence of recent consumption hubs in India, and economic process in smaller cities
the share of semi urban and rural FMCG markets is anticipated to grow considerably
throughout the forecast period. Over the last decade, India has witnessed a demographic
shift, with speedy adoption of web and growing digital media, and has significantly
altered the acquisition call of Indian customers. Growth is also likely to come from
consumer 'upgrading' in the matured product categories. With 200million people
expected to shift to processed and packaged food by 2010, India needs around US$ 28
billion of investment in the food-processing industry. Products belonging to the FMCG

being the largest player in food and agricultural sector. The food processing industry is one of
the largest industries in India and is ranked fifth in terms of production, consumption, export,
and expected growth

12 | P a g e

care, colour cosmetics and fragrances are the key segments of the personal care market. Each
of these segments has its own unique trends and growth patterns. oral care; hair care; skin care;
personal wash (soaps); cosmetics and toiletries; deodorants; perfumes; paper products (tissues,
diapers, sanitary); shoe care.

13 | P a g e
Globally, the non-public care marketplace stood at USD700 billion in 2015, of which India’s
percentage stood at around1.4%. Bath and bathe merchandise which incorporates bar soap,
frame wash, bathe gel, etc. occupied the most percentage withinside the marketplace
accompanied with the aid of using hair care merchandise. Lower priced small amount
merchandise supplied with the aid of using the agencies have stepped forward the tempo of
penetration of FMCG non-public care merchandise marketplace. Growing literacy levels,
better authorities spending on welfare programs, growing assist to agricultural sector, and
growing DTH and cell connections have additionally acted as a catalyst in bolstering rural call
for FMCG non-public care merchandise in rural areas.

SECTOR GROWTH FACTOR

The FMCG sector is probable to peer an increase component of round 60 percentage in each
rural and semi-city regions of India through 2020. Hair care merchandise, family gadgets, male
grooming, girl hygiene, sweets and confectionary gadgets are discovered to be developing
quickly. Today, city India is eating over 66% of those speedy transferring client items whilst
rural India is eating over 34%. However, it's far predicted that rural India could boom the intake
of products to 40% in key FMCG categories. In city regions humans are maximum keen on the
usage of gadgets like non-public care, pores and skin care, family care and girl hygienic
merchandise. The call for those merchandise could be growing daily and are offered at an
appealing price. In meals segment, the processed foods, bakery, day by day merchandise
observes a long time increase in each city and rural regions. Growing populace in each city and
semi-city regions have resulted withinside the upward push of eating FMCG merchandise. The
producer is probable to get hold of massive income volumes withinside the coming years.

Growth in India's Rs 3.2 lakh crore fast moving consumer goods market (FMCG) has been the
highest in two years, according to market research agency Nielsen. Figures by Nielsen show
that overall FMCG growth has been 12.2 per cent, led by both volume and price, in the quarter
ended March 2017. This is at least 400 basis points higher than the year-ago period, when

14 | P a g e
overall growth was 7.9 per cent. Nielsen's numbers are in line with what most companies
globally and nationally have been saying for a few quarters now.

Here are a few reasons why the tide is changing for consumer goods:

1. DEMAND SHOWING IMPROVEMENT POST NOTE BAN: Most companies


from Unilever to Dabur to Marico, Nestle and Mondelez have highlighted recently that
demand has recovered post the high-value note ban in the December quarter. They say
that consumers, especially, in urban areas have got past the hurdles faced during the
note ban, prompting sales to show improvement in the March quarter.
2. CONSUMER STAPLES IS RESILIENT AS A CATEGORY: Most analysts
believe that consumer staples as a category remains resilient to external factors such
as note ban since these are essential goods required for consumption and survival. So
while factors such as demonetisation can dampen demand for one quarter, it cannot do
so for long.
3. COMPANIES WERE QUICK TO ADAPT TO THE CHANGING SCENARIO:
To lessen the pain, companies were quick to manage inventory and distribution during
the note ban, increasing credit period for trade strapped for cash. In recent months,
companies have been talking to traders to switch to digital payments to ensure seamless
transfer of goods.
4. COMPANIES FOCUSING ON URBAN FOR NOW: Most FMCG companies
admit that business will take time to return to normal in rural areas owing to the note
ban. So, the focus for them will be on pushing sales in urban areas. While rural
constitutes a third of FMCG, two-thirds continues to come from urban areas so for the
medium to short term emphasis on urban till rural returns to normal, say analysts, is
not a bad idea.
5. GST PREPAREDNESS: That is expected to be critical for companies going forward.
How they accustom themselves to this tax regime will determine whether it will be
business as usual for them in the coming quarters.

Key gamers withinside the FMCG quarter are Hindustan Unilever Ltd, Nestlé India, AMUL,
Dabur India, Asian Paints (India), and Cadbury India, Procter & Gamble Hygiene and Health
care, Britannia, Pepsi, Coca-Cola and different agencies. As consistent with the take a look at
carried out through ASSOCHAM, agencies like Hindustan Unilever Limited and Dabur India
income are at the upward push in rural India. In fact, 1/2 of the income of those merchandise
are from rural regions. The merchandise which might be synthetic through Colgate Palmolive
India and Marico have 37% of intake whilst the goods synthetic through Nestle India Ltd and
GSK Consumer pressure see an upward push of 25% income from rural India.

With the boom in city regions, there are is a steep upward push in younger populace that is
giving enough possibilities for FMCG quarter to supply merchandise which might be utilized
by kids to attain massive profits The Finance Ministry has added Goods and Service Tax (GST)
in 2017. This a super circulates which have expanded the intake, manufacturing and
employment possibilities at once whilst decreasing all oblique taxes that expenses now no

15 | P a g e
longer much less than 35% of overall fee of client items, that is the very best in Asian countries.
The key factor to knowledge from that is that, the India marketplace is developing at a quicker
tempo and is displaying many commercial enterprise possibilities. In this viewpoint, we've got
determined to perform a take a look at on client behaviour and their shopping for choices whilst
shopping for FMCG merchandise.

PORTER 5 FORCE MODEL.

Porter Five (5) Forces Model was proposed by Michael E. Porter in 1979. The purpose was to
assess and evaluate the competitive positioning and strengths of business organisations. The
model has three horizontal competitive forces (Threat of Substitute Products or services, the
threat of new entrants and rivalry among existing firms) and two vertical forces (Bargaining
power of buyers and bargaining power of suppliers). These forces shape the competition within
any industry. The overall industry competitiveness declines when these forces reduce
profitability. Porter found SWOT analysis lacking in rigour. Many new companies use the
Porter Five (5) Forces Model to decide whether it is profitable to enter in a particular industry.

Here is the pictorial presentation of the Porter Five (5) Forces Model:

19 | P a g e
Threats of new entrants

Threat of new entrants reflects how new market players impose threats to the existing market
players. If the industry will be profitable and barriers to enter the industry will be low, it will
attract more players and hence, the threat of new entrants. will be high.

Here are some factors that reduce the threat of new entrants for ITC Limited India First:

Entry in the industry requires substantial capital and resource investment. This force also
loses the strength if product differentiation is high and customers place high importance to
the unique experience.

ITC Limited India First will face the low threat of new entrants if existing regulatory
framework imposes certain challenges to the new firms interested to enter in the market. In
this case, new players will be required to fulfil strict, time-consuming regulatory
requirements, which may discourage some players from entering the market.

The threat will be low if psychological switching cost for consumers is high and existing
brands have established a loyal customer base.

New entrants will be discouraged if access to the distribution channels is restricted.

ITC Limited India First will be facing high new entrants threat if

 Existing regulations support the entry of new players.


 Consumers can easily switch the brands due to weak/no brand loyalty.
 Initial capital investment is high.
 Building a distribution network is easy for new players.

 Retaliation from the existing market players is not a discouraging factor.

Threat of Substitute Products or services

The availability of substitute products or services makes the competitive environment


challenging for ITC Limited India First and other existing players. High substitute threat
shows that customers can use alternative products/services from other industries to meet their
needs. Various factors determine the intensity of this threat for ITC Limited India First

The Threat of Substitute Products or services increases when :

A cheaper substitute product/service is available from another industry

The psychological switching costs of moving from industry to substitute products are low.

20 | P a g e
Substitute product offers the same or even superior quality and performance as offered by
ITC Limited India First’s product.

However, this threat is substantially low for ITC Limited India First when:

 The switching cost of using the substitute product is high (due to high psychological
costs or higher economic costs)

 Customers cannot derive the same utility (in terms of quality and performance) from
substitute product as they derive from the ITC Limited India First’s product.

Rivalry among existing firms

The Rivalry among existing firms shows the number of competitors that give tough
competition to the ITC Limited India First High rivalry shows ITC Limited India First
can face strong pressure from the rival firms, which can limit each other’s growth
potential. Profitability in such industries is low as firms adopt aggressive targeting and
pricing strategies against each other.

The Rivalry among existing firms will be low for ITC Limited India First if;

 There are only a limited number of players in the market


 The industry is growing at a fast rate
 There is a clear market leader
 The products are highly differentiated, and each market player targets different
sub-segments
 The economic/psychological switching costs for consumers are high.
 The exit barriers are low, which means firms can easily leave the industry without
incurring huge losses.

Similarly, there are some factors that increase the Rivalry among existing firms for ITC
Limited India First For example, the company will face intense Rivalry among existing
firms if market players are strategically diverse and target the same market. The rivalry
will also be intense if customers are not loyal with existing brands and it is easier to
attract others’ customers due to low switching costs. Competitors with equal size and
offering undifferentiated products with slow industry growth tend to adopt aggressive
strategies against each other. These all factors make the Rivalry among existing firms a
major strategic concern for ITC Limited India First

Bargaining Power of Suppliers

Bargaining power of suppliers in the Porter 5 force model reflects the pressure exerted by
suppliers on business organisations by adopting different tactics like reducing the product
availability, reducing the quality or increasing the prices. When suppliers have strong
21 | P a g e
bargaining power, it costs the buyers- (business organisations). Moreover, high supplier
bargaining power can increase the competition in the industry and lower the profit and
growth potential for ITC Limited India First Similarly, weak supplier power can make the
industry more attractive due to high profitability and growth potential.

Bargaining power of suppliers will be high for ITC Limited India First if:

 Suppliers have concentrated into a specific region, and their concentration is


higher than their buyers.
 This force is particularly strong when the cost to switch from one supplier to other
is high for buyers (for example, due to contractual relationships).
 When suppliers are few and demand for their offered product is high, it
strengthens the suppliers’ position against ITC Limited India First
 Suppliers’ forward integration weakens the ITC Limited India First’s position as
they also become the competitors in that area.
 If ITC Limited India First is not well educated, does not have adequate market
knowledge and lacks the price sensitivity, it automatically strengthens the
suppliers' position against the organisation.
 Other factors that increase the suppliers’ bargaining power include-high product
differentiation offered by suppliers, ITC Limited India First making only a small
proportion of suppliers’ overall sales and unavailability of the substitute products.

Contrarily, the bargaining power of suppliers will be low for ITC Limited India First if:

 Suppliers are not concentrated


 Switching costs are low
 Product lacks differentiation
 Substitute products are available

anytime, anywhere candy. And India being a country full of kids where you need to keep having
something to keep them going, it is one of the most soothing candies and loved by kids. Since
Rajasthani and Gujarati cuisines share a similar tanginess as Candyman, the company decided
to test-market it in these states first. The exercise proved so successful that it had to be
converted into a full-fledged launch.

POSITIONING
They have been trying to position themselves as chocolates for all age groups and not just kids.
The campaign has successfully created a picture in the mind of the customers that Candyman
is not just a chocolate but means of celebrations. The brand was positioned as a
candy/confectionery which is irresistible and adopted the tagline " Kuch Bhi Karega for
Candyman " translated roughly to " Will Do Anything for Candyman ". The brand was
targeting the kids (naughty types) who seek delightful candy experience.

MARKET MIX (4P’S)

PRODUCT: -

39 | P a g e
ITC launched the 'Candyman' range of confectioneries in August 2002. Led by the
‘Candyman’ Fruitee Fun' range of assorted fruit flavours ('Wild banana', 'Pineapple Punch',
'Orange Josh' and 'Mango Delite'), the 'Candyman' portfolio now includes deposited candy
products like 'Candyman Butterscotch Licks' and 'Candyman Eclairs' (Choco flavoured as
well as Vanilla Cream centre inside a Butterscotch outer shell). Candy man is a celebrated
brand name for confectionery from the house of itch foods. The brand has endorsed multiple
products - choco double eclairs, toffichoo, fruitee funn, creme lacto & crunchy to name a
few. It has delighted kids and adults with its sweet offerings. The most recent offering is
Candyman Fantastik - centre filled wafer biscuits. These are wafer sticks filled with rich and
luscious creme filling. The outer wafer has a crispy and crunchy bite, while the creme filling
inside has a chocolatey flavour making it irresistible. It has the right balance of wafer and
chocolate, making Candyman Fantastik ideal for consumption at any place and any time - to
cater to one's sweet tooth. These sticks are available in a premium outer packaging - that is
ideal for gifting to friends and family, treating kids or just keeping it at home to delight taste
buds and cater to one's sweet tooth. Each box has 20 individually packed sticks.

The coffee toffee segment also saw the successful launch of 'Candyman cofitino' in November
2005. The brand was further strengthened with the launch of 'Candyman Natkhat Mango' and
'Candyman Maha Mango'. In line with the strategy to provide innovative flavours to the
consumers, Candyman Mango Licks was launched in June2007 and Candyman Natkhat
Gowawa in October 2007. The 'Candyman' range of confectionary is targeted at 'fun-filled,
naughty kids' who seek a delightful candy experience through a range of candy types and
flavours.
ITC Ltd.’s confectionery brand Candyman Fantastik, acclaimed for its crispy wafer rolls filled
with luscious choco creme, has released a set of 12 new contextual TVCs for its campaign
‘Cricket’s Snacking Partner’. The campaign celebrates extraordinary, on-the-field, cricketing
moments that elicit exhilarating fan moments, calling for a sweet indulgent celebration.
Through this campaign, the brand endeavours to become an inclusive part of consumers’ at-
home, cricket watching experience. ITC forayed into the sizeable bridge chocolate and wafer
crème market with the launch of Candyman Fantastik last year. Fantastik from ITC Foods has
been amongst the most successful launches in this segment recently with an encouraging
consumer response for the unique offering. The three phased campaign, led by contextual
TVCs, amplified through subsequent influencer and extensive sampling activities, intends to
sweeten up consumers’ homebound cricket cheering experience. Candyman Fantastik Choco
stick’s unique cylindrical shape makes it a relevant mnemonic for stumps or the handle of a
cricket bat. The contextual TVCs translate the spirit of a cricketer’s ‘Fantastik’ celebratory
moment into one which can be replicated by consumers at home with the product, taking a
differentiated approach to sweet snacking experience. To further elevate the consumers’ match
viewing experience, Candyman Fantastik has launched an in-home mini treats pack, ideal for
snacking by oneself or with friends and family during match hours. The TVCs have been
developed around three major fan moments including a batsman’s cricketing milestone
represented by raising the bat, taking a wicket by completing a catch and feeling ecstatic about
it and rejoicing a team’s victory in the quintessential cricketing style by uprooting the stumps.
Each of these moments has a customized TVC for the fans from different cities like Mumbai,
Bangalore, Chennai and Hyderabad. The TVCs which start by re-creating the ‘celebrated
moment’ soon cut to the fans taking delight of the achievement, burst into excitement and
seeing themselves celebrating akin to the player shown in the beginning.

Anuj Rustagi joined ITC as Chief Operating Officer for the chocolates, coffee and
confectionary cluster of the ITC Foods Business in 2017. Prior to ITC, he was a global brand
director at Unilever Plc, London. He says that “Candyman as a master brand is one of the Rs
500-crore plus consumer brands that ITC foods has. Within that, Fantastik has really been on
a fantastic journey in the last one year. It has been one of our best performing innovations and
it is handsomely contributing to the Candyman portfolio. And obviously, we got impacted by
COVID like all impulse categories did. But before that, we were clocking really well in
consumables, almost hitting a run rate of Rs 100 crore+. And, we are looking to get back on
the growth trajectory accounting for consumer habits and the change in the context”

SWOT ANALYSIS OF CANDYMAN FANTASTIK

BCG

Boston Consulting Group (BCG) Matrixes a four celled matrix (a 2 * 2 matrix) developed by
BCG, USA. It is the most renowned corporate portfolio analysis tool. It provides a graphic
representation for an organization to examine different businesses in its portfolio on the basis
of their related market share and industry growth rates. It is a two-dimensional analysis on
management of SBU’s (Strategic Business Units). In other words, it is a comparative analysis
of business potential and the evaluation of environment. According to this matrix, business

42 | P a g e
could be classified as high or low according to their industry growth rate and relative market
share. Relative Market Share= SBU Sales this year leading competitors’ sales this year.
Market Growth Rate= Industry sales this year - Industry Sales last year. The analysis requires
that both measures be calculated for each SBU. The dimension of business strength, relative
market share, will measure comparative advantage indicated by market dominance. The key
theory underlying this is existence of an experience curve and that market share is achieved
due to overall cost leadership matrix has four cells, with the horizontal axis representing
relative market share and the vertical axis denoting market growth rate. The mid-point of
relative market shares set at 1.0. if all the SBU’s are in same industry, the average growth rate
of the industry is used. While, if all the SBU’s are located in different industries, then the
mid-point is set at the growth rate for the economy. Resources are allocated to the business
units according to their situation on the grid. The four cells of this matrix have been called as
stars, cash cows, question marks and dogs. Each of these cells represents a particular type of
Star

STAR

A star is a fast-growing market leader. They generally have the largest profits but needs a lot
of cash to finance rapidly. The best strategy is to protect existing market share by reinvesting
earnings in product improvement, better distribution, more promotion and production
efficiency. Management needs to ensure that its existing consumer base is increasing
business.

CASH COWS

A Cash Cow produces more cash then it requires to grow and hence, the name.
The product is in a low growth market but has a dominant market share.

The best strategy is to maintain the market share by being a price leader and
making technological improvements. The excess cash generated can be used by
other products in the portfolio where large investments are required.

QUESTION MARK

A Question Mark, also known as a problem child, shows rapid growth but lower
profit margins. It has a low market share in a high growth market. It needs a
great deal of cash to increase market share.

The strategy is to either use the cash to invest heavily in gaining market share,
acquire competitors or drop the SBU at all. Marketers need to make a lot of
efforts to make the problem child progress to a star.

DOGS

A Dog has a low market share in a low growth market. Most dogs eventually
leave the marketplace.

43 | P a g e
The strategy is either to divest or harvest. Divesting is the practice of shutting
down the SBU. In contrast, harvesting is the practice of cutting back all the
investment to maximise profits, even if it loses all market shares. Let’s now move
on our firm in focus ITC Ltd and see what ITC BCG matrix is like. But first, we'll
look into the Product Mix of ITC.

PLC - PRODUCT LIFE CYCLE


Every product has life cycle. Every product would have a limited life and will pass through
different stages bearing different challenges and opportunities. As sales and profits in these
life cycle stages vary, a different marketing strategy should be followed by company at every
stage. There are four stages of a product life cycle – Introduction, growth, maturity and
decline. It is not compulsory that a product must undergo all stages in its life cycle.

44 | P a g e
VALUE CHAIN ANALYSIS
Value chain analysis is a way to assess each activity in a company's value chain to understand
where opportunities for improvement lie. When conducting a value chain analysis, you need
to consider how each step increases or decreases the value of your end product or service.

P/E RATIO OF THE COMPANY AND INDUSTRY P/E
According to ITC's latest financial reports and stock price the company's current price-to-
earnings ratio (TTM) is 25.2084. At the end of 2022 the company had a P/E ratio of 20.1.

Price-to-Earnings ratio, P/E Multiple, or P/E Ratio is an important valuation multiple


that is defined as:

P/E = Market Capitalization / Net Income

or, using per-share numbers:

P/E = Stock Price / Earnings Per Share (EPS)

Applying the above formula, P/E ratio of ITC is calculated as :

Current Market Cap [ ₹442,075.0 Cr] as on Nov 11,2022

51 | P a g e
(/) Earnings [ ₹17,511.1 Cr] based on TTM-Consolidated Results

(=) P/E Ratio [ 25.25x]

P/E Ratio indicates the multiple of earnings investors are willing to pay to own one
share of the company.

Thus, for ITC , the investors are currently willing to pay 25.25 times earnings to own 1
share of the company.

PE Multiples are the most widely used valuation multiple in practice.

THE ABOVE FIGURE REPRESENTS THE P/E RATIO OF THE FMCG SECTOR
Since P/E ratio uses Net Income in the calculation, P/E multiples are not always reliable
for valuing companies with negative earnings.

In such cases, you may consider using Price to Book ratio or Price to Sales ratio of ITC
P/E ratios, also, would not adjust for differences in the capital structure between
companies.ITC 's latest p/e ratio is 25.25x.

52 | P a g e
- ITC 's p/e ratio for fiscal years ending Mar2022 to Mar2018 averaged 22.22x.

- ITC 's operated at median p/e ratio of 20.43x from fiscal years ending March 2018 to

MACROECONOMIC FACTORS THAT AFFECT THE STOCK PRICE OF
ITC
The stock market has become an essential market playing a vital role in economic prosperity
that fostering
capital formation and sustaining economic growth. Stock markets are more than a place to trade
securities;
they operate as a facilitator between savers and users of capital by means of pooling of funds,
sharing risk, and
transferring wealth. Stock markets are essential for economic growth as they insure the flow of
resources to
the most productive investment opportunities. In essence, a large number of economic variables
like gross
domestic product, interest rates, current account, monthly supply, employment, their
information etc. have an
impact on daily stock prices (Kurihara, 2006). This paper reflects how stock price is determined
by
considering the effect of different factors and outlines whether the internal, external and
economic factors
have impact on stock pricing. This study is about to know whether Dividends, paid up capital,
market capital,
corporate social responsibility, lawsuits, Retained Earnings, AGM, EGM, Earning Per Share,
Rumors, Margin
Loan, Net Income, Face Value, Return on Investment, Goodwill of the firm, Company News,
Analysts
Report, Sentiment, Rumors, etc depends on stock price or merely some special factors like
stock dividend, P/E
ratio, government policy, macroeconomics fundamental, investors sentiment, analyst report,
Goodwill, AGM,
EPS, to determine the share price. Whether the investors consider these determinants before
investment
decision or not or increase or decrease the stock price in accordance to change the agents

news, etc. or merely in accordance with the change of Dividends and Earnings. The researchers
endeavor to
find out the most fundamental determinant factors which are directly influence on share price
movement and
on what bases investors should select his or her investment portfolio.
Analyzing a theoretical view in explaining the impact of different determinant factors of stock
price and provide
a clear view and fundamental concept towards the respective investors, portfolios managers
and companies about
the influencing capacity of each base factor i.e. internal factor, external factor, economic factor,
political factor
and environmental factor. Stock prices are affected by a number of factors and events, some of
which influence
stock prices directly and others that do so indirectly. The following are the factors that affect
or even predict the
buying or selling of stock that ultimately affects stock prices of companies.

 Qualitative Factors
Company Goodwill: Old customer comes old place is Goodwill and it is an intangible but
saleable asset that
may be worth many times the worth of its physical assets. Goodwill includes the worth of
corporate identity, and
is enhanced by corporate image and a proper location. It is the important wheel to sell, to earn
and to raise the
value of share.
Market Sentiments: Hearing rumor and looking at stock indexes or its future price movement
is the market
sentiment. The price of the stock of a company is affected most
of the time by the general market direction during a session. In a bull market, the stock price
of most companies
will rise and will fall in a bear market.
Company Announcements: Stock prices fluctuate as investors and traders try to predict
earnings, management
changes and industry trends, when a company makes an announcement the investors aren't
happy with this can
force the stock price to fall.

60 | P a g e
Annual general meeting (AGM): It is to comply with presentation and approval of the audited
accounts,
election of directors, appointment of auditors, compensation of officers, confirmation of
proposed dividend, and
issues raised by the stockholders called annual meeting in the Bangladesh. Investors are
looking forward to the
AGM to get lucrative dividend declaration.
Unexpected Circumstances: Examples of unforeseen circumstances that can affect prices
include natural
disasters or worldwide crash and Technical influence has effect on aggregated and individual
stock prices.
Analysts’ Report: Reports produced by independent analysts also influence share prices. If an
analyst changes
their recommendation from sell to buy for example, the shares will often raise in value i.e.
company will affect
its share price very quickly. Analysts’ reports are always worth reading whereas shares are not
worth buying.
Print and Electronic Media: They say a lie repeated from thousand platforms becomes the truth.
An investor
has to take care whether they are planted stories or genuine positive developments happening
with the company.
The role of the press and the views expressed by it on the share market conditions, influence
the decisions of the
investors.
Hype: Investors have an interest in promoting particular stocks and industries to increase profits
and value of
their own shares. Stocks price can be affected by hype about a company or the release of new
products. This can
occur even when the hype has no foundation in truth.
Change in Government Policies: A matter of progress, government may review its policies,
rules & regulations
like FDI and FII inflow restrictions, entry exit barriers for foreign banks, EXIM regulations,
and change in Basel

Dividend: Dividend refers to cash payment or distribution of a firm's income among its
stockholders, in the form
of additional fully-paid shares. After the announcement of a dividend the stock price may
increase by an amount
close to the dividend per share value. However, the stock price may drop on the ex-dividend
date by the dividend
per share amount.
Market Capital: Market capital of a company means the value of the company. It may have the
causes of
increasing share price to fulfill Basel II or other things.
Price/Earning (P/E) Ratio: The P/E Ratio is commonly used to assess the owners’ appraisal of
share value. The
higher P/E ratio is the greater investors’ confidence. If the price of the share is too much lower
than the earning
of the company, the stock is undervalued and it has the potential to rise in the near future and
vice versa.

more consumers
purchase a particular type of stock, its price will automatically increase and when sell that, its
price will then
plunge.

Lakh Crore.
ITC has a diversified presence in FMCG, Hotels, Packaging, Paperboards & Specialty Papers
and Agri-Business.
We are doing the valuation analysis of the stock on the basis of following valuation factors :
Revenue Gro CAGR Growth of Revenue & Profit Before Tax (PBT)
ITC Ltd Stock Valuation Analysis – PAT Projections FY2019-20
ITC Ltd Stock Valuation Analysis – PAT Projections FY2019-20
Here, we have calculated the CAGR growth of revenue and Profit Before Tax (PBT) of ITC
Ltd.
For FY2018-19 :
Revenue = Rs.44,983 Cr
PBT = Rs.18,444 Cr
After calculating the CAGR growth, the lowest growth rate (Here, 6.24%) is taken for further
calculations of PBT projections for FY2019-20.
Thus, PBT Projection FY2019-20 = Rs.18,444 Cr * (1.0624) = Rs.19,595 Cr
Corporate tax rate of ITC Ltd was 32% earlier. Now, Considering the new reduced corporate
tax rate for FY2019-20 ie. 25.17%,
Profit After Tax (PAT) Projection FY2019-20 = Rs.19,595 Cr (1 – 25.17%) = Rs.14,663 Cr
(For the detailed calculations, please refer above table.)
ITC Ltd Market Capitalization Projections by considering Historical Average PE Ratios
ITC Ltd Stock Valuation Analysis – Market Cap Projections
ITC Ltd Stock Valuation Analysis – Market Cap Projections
The historical average PE ratios for 3, 5 and 10 years are 30.49, 31.26 and 30.90 respectively.
So we have calculated the future market cap projections of ITC Ltd by considering those PE
ratios also.
However, by considering the realistic expectations from the market, we have to consider the
current PE Ratio of ITC Ltd for calculating its market cap projection.

64 | P a g e
Thus, Current PE = 24.69 and PAT FY2019-20 projection = Rs.14,663 Cr
Market Cap Projection of ITC Ltd stock = 24.69 * Rs.14,663 Cr = Rs.3,62,029 Cr
While, the current market cap = Rs.3,15,000 Cr
So, % Growth in the market cap would be = 14.92%
Thus, ITC Ltd’s market cap can reach up to Rs.3,62,029 Cr by the end of current financial year
2019-20.
Also, with the active participation of institutional investors for buying ITC stock would suggest
the re-rating of the stock. Since, Both the Indices (Sensex as well as NIFTY) have considerable
weightage for the stocked, Profit Before Tax (PBT) Growth, PE Ratio, Market Capitalisation,
etc.

ONBOARDING FORMALITIES AND DOCUMENTS REQUIRED FOR JOINING


Onboarding is important because it acclimates employees to their role, the company's
philosophies, and what the company has to offer. It also engages employees, creating workers
that are committed to the company's success and helps retain new hires by making them feel
like a member of the team. According to sources, the onboarding in the company is really
smooth.

According to sources, “Once you join the company on your joining day, you will be
intimated to join a induction program (2 complete days). These may take place after
1week to few days of joining as the recruitment cell waits to form a group for the
induction program. For the 2days of induction you will be having different sessions on
the different sections of business and areas of ITC like IT, Manufacturing, Agri
business etc. You will be made aware of all the rules and protocols of the company.”

Other sources say that “First thing you have to learn ITC is not a single entity. It has
several businesses. Each of them has separate HR and separate systems. But there are
certain common ethics and values they all go by. The joining process will be just same
like formalities done in any other company. On-boarding for role certainly is specific to
the role you are in. If you are a technical guy, they for sure treat you like a fresher and
train you well. They literally teach you. They take you through other businesses as well.

METHOD OF TNA IN THE ORGANIZATION

Training

Definition – Training is a process where we can increase our skill and develop potential in an
individual. In training we asses ourselves and upgrade our competencies so as to develop our
holistic and management skills. In an organization, training is needed to effectively increase
the productivity in the organization and serve to maximize the profit in the particular
organization.

77 | P a g e
Training Need Analysis

Training need analysis determines the amount of competencies a particular employee


currently has and the amount of skills and competencies the employee has a gap in. Training
need analysis is a technique to measure and identify/analyze the training gap needed for the
particular employee and rectifying the gap through various methods. It is done to identify
when an employee is not doing well in the organization or he is lacking somewhere in his
work or he is hesitating to talk about his poor competencies to his/her HR or the Line
Manager.

TRAINING PROCESS AND MODEL USED IN THE ORGANIZATION

Steps in Training Need Analysis

There are several methods In Training Need Analysis:

• Identifying the problems and analysing the need for training of an employee

• Evaluate the current competencies and evaluate the training deficit of the employee

• Planning the design of need assessment

• Collecting data

• Analysing the data

• Evaluate the result and the outcome

• Taking feedbacks

Who conducts the TNA and why is it done?

The training assessment is done either by the line manager or the in-house supervisor to
assess the training need depending on the following factors:

• Problems in Performance.

• Introduction of a new system, task or technology.

• A desire by the organization.

78 | P a g e
Training Methods/Training Tools

• Survey/Questionnaire

consumer relations and the consumer behaviour.

Hence, a SURVEY/QUESTIONNAIRE will be followed since it’s a managerial position.

ADDIE model.

A- Analyse

D- Develop

I- Implement

Sr.HR manger analyse the job of Marketing managers, then he will analyse the task function
or key performing index (Goal sheet) then he will analyse the key result area. After analysis

79 | P a g e
these two factors if he founds a gap, then he discusses with employee where he/she is lacking
behind and what kind of training is required.

Second step: Design

HR will design the objectives for the training that will be provided to Marketing managers
then he will conduct different tests to check the person is lacking behind then he will get to
know which area they need training like communication, HR analytics, People management
skills and leadership skills or any technical skills.

SUITABLE TRAINING METHODS FOR THE EMPLOYEES BASED ON
COMPETENCIES AND JD

TRAINING METHODS

There are various training methods with which we can provide the trainings to the employee.
There are 2 types of training methods: 1) On-the job training (which consists of 50% work
and 50% training) 2) Off the job training (100% training)

Since the profile is of a Marketing manager (Managerial Position), it is known that he/she
must be having an experience of 5-6 years. Hence, the HR should prepare the training of the
Marketing managers as a mixture of mainly On the Job and some Off the job trainings. In on-
the-job training method, the probable method should be the COACHING and
UNDERSTUDY method.

Coaching is a one-to-one training program taken place by line manager in the company. In
this process the line manager supervises and instructs the mentees and they have to listen to
them regarding the training process.

Understudy is a method in which an existing employee (Marketing manager) of McCain who


is working in the same profile for many months/years give training to the newly joined
employees (Marketing manager) as a part of the training. In layman terms to explain, a
superior gives training to a subordinate.

In Off- job training method, the HR can arrange for VESTIBULE training as the employees
can be taken in a prototype environment and work or even can be taken in
workshops/seminars for a better understanding of the work and reduce the training deficit.

DESCRIBE THE STATUTORY BENEFITS THAT THE COMPANY FOLLOWS

A company’s benefit package is one way for employers to communicate and execute on their
company culture and values, to attract top talent globally, and to boost employee satisfaction.
One study revealed that 78% of employees reported that they’re more likely to stay with an
employer because of their benefits program.

In addition to attracting talent, comprehensive benefits packages are required for legal
compliance. As an employer looking to hire internationally, it’s important to remain updated
on the labor laws and requirements for the countries represented on your team.

In this article, you’ll learn about the statutory benefits that employers need to consider to
remain competitive and compliant when hiring in India. The statutory benefits that are
required by law serve to protect workers and ensure that employers maintain ethical
employment practices. Beyond what is required, non-statutory benefits can also allow
companies to stand out and attract the best employees.

Employees should have a clear understanding of the benefits that they are required to
contribute to and any of the non-statutory benefits that the company offers. Clear
communication from the company’s HR department is essential to ensure employees
understand how to maximize their benefits package.

HRIS SOFTWARE TOOL USED IN THE ORGANIZATION
The HRIS (Human Resources Information Software) uses management and provides and
improves HR decision making, enable legislative compliance and help HR teams better
support managers and employees.

HR info systems is a business application/HR system is a business application designed to


manage the complete employee lifecycle from recruitment and onboarding through core HR
administration to employee engagement and performance management.

WHICH HR PROCESSES DO HR SYSTEMS COVER?

All HR systems have a core HR administration module. This helps HR professionals organise
and manage the most essential information about the business (such as org structure,
locations, cost centres etc.) and their people. Alongside automating and streamlining
everyday HR activities, such as employee record keeping and compliance, most popular HR
systems also help organisations better manage these key human resources processes:

At the macro level, HRIS is critical for effective planning and budgeting of national
resources. Based on HRIS the Government and other agencies involved in manpower
planning and manpower productivity, such as the central and the State Governments, AICTU
or educational institutions etc, can develop proper strategies to increase the numbers as well
as the utilization of the pool of people available for jobs. Efforts can be made to develop the
required skills and competencies among the labour pool to meet the national/regional

89 | P a g e
requirements by allocating adequate budgets on the basis of their expected optimum use. The
recent initiatives of the Indian Government to upgrade the regional engineering colleges to
IIT standards, or to create centres of excellence, or invest in bio-technology research etc. are
all results of a national level information base regarding the trends in the demand and the
expected supply of manpower made possible because of an HRIS at the macro level. At the
micro or enterprise level, HRIS has become critical for decision-making and policy
formulation as well as for ensuring fairness and equity in HR policies and practices. There is
an increasing realization that for organisational survival and growth in a competitive
environment, human resource is the most critical resource. This coupled with the increase in
the cost of hiring, retaining, developing and motivating people to perform at their best has
pushed organisations to base their HR decisions on sound logic and thereby, on proper
information. HRIS becomes a major asset from this point of view. The growing need for
transparency among the employees and the society is another factor that is compelling
organisations towards proper management of information in all areas, including HR.

According to Tang et al. (1987) the key to the effective planning of manpower and
improvement of people productivity is an effective HRIS. However, in order to be effective
an information system must take into account the following :

Adequacy of information: Too much or too little information, both lead to defective
decision-making. Therefore, there must be some understanding regarding what information
and in how much detail and covering what periods should be maintained.

Specificity: Even where it is not possible to quantify the information, the information should
be made as specific as possible. Relevance: Information is to be managed in the light of the
requirements of the decision makers. Therefore, HRIS should focus on the needs of the
decision-makers and stakeholders rather than on what is interesting or easily available or
palatable to the people. The system, therefore, must also have the built in capability for
deletion and updating of data. Comprehensiveness: The information should be complete from
the point of view of the decision-maker giving details of who, what, how, when, where and
why .

Reliabilty: Since the information is going to be the basis of critical decisions, it must satisfy
the requirements of validity and reliability. Moreover, to ensure effectiveness, not only
should the information provided be relevant and reliable but the delivery system should also
be the most satisfying and cost effective. A wealth of information but not accessible when
needed or available at an inhibiting personal cost in terms of energy and time, is of hardly any
use
