CHAPTER 1  

INTRODUCTION

Industry profile  
6
The two-wheeler industry in India has grown rapidly in the country since the  
42
announcement of the process of liberalization in 1991 by the then finance minister Dr.  
23
Manmohan Singh, now Prime Minister of India.  

Previously, there were only a handful of two-wheeler models available in the country.  
Currently, India is the second largest producer of two-wheelers in the world. It stands  
next only to China and Japan in terms of the number of two-wheelers produced and  
the sales of two-wheelers respectively. In the year 2005-2006, the annual production  
of two-wheelers in India stood at around 7600801 units.  
6
The trend of owning two-wheelers is due to a variety of facts peculiar to India. One  
of the chief factors is poor public transport in many parts of India. Additionally, two-  
wheelers offer a great deal of convenience and mobility for the Indian family.  

Bajaj auto began trading in imported Vespa Scooters in 1948. Meanwhile Automobile  
Products of India (API) commenced production of scooters in the country in the early  
54
50's. Until 1958, API and Enfield were the only producers of two-wheelers in India.  
6
However, Bajaj signed a technical collaboration in 1960 with Piaggio of Italy to  
produce Bajaj Scooters. This deal expired in 1971.  
42
The condition of motorcycle manufacturers was no different. Until the mid 80's, there  
were only three major motorcycle manufacturers in India namely Rajdoot, Escorts,  
and Enfield. The two-wheeler market was opened to foreign manufacturers in the mid  
80's. The industry, which had seen a smooth ride before, faced fierce foreign  
competition.  
6
Motorcycle companies like the Yamaha, Honda, and Kawasaki, set up shop in India  
in collaboration with various Indian two-wheeler companies. Companies like Escorts,  
Rajdoot and faced immense competition from smaller 100 cc Japanese technology  
motorbikes. Bikes manufactured by Hero Honda, the only company manufacturing  
four-stroke bikes at that time, gained massive popularity.

The automobile industry is one of the most important drivers of economic growth of  
India and one with high participation in global value chains. The growth of this sector  
has been on the back of strong government support which has helped it carve a unique  
1
path among the manufacturing sectors of India. The automobiles produced in the  
country uniquely cater to the demands of low- and middle-income groups of  
population which makes this sector stand out among the other automobile-producing  
countries. This chapter analyzes the roles of government policy, infrastructure, and  
other enabling factors in the expansion of the automobile and automotive component  
sectors of India. In 2017, India became the world’s fourth largest automobile market,  
and the demand for Indian vehicles continues to grow in the domestic and international  
markets. To meet the future needs of customers (including the electrical vehicles) and  
stay ahead of competition, manufacturers are now catching up on up gradation,  
digitization, and automation. The chapter also analyzes India’s national policy in light  
of these developments.  
5
The automobile industry is an important driver of the economic growth in India and  
one of the successful sectors in which the country has high participation in global  
value chains (GVCs).  

This chapter analyzes the role of government policy, infrastructure, and other enabling  
1
factors in the expansion of the automobile and automotive component sectors and the  
direction they are likely to take for growth path in the next few years. The analysis in  
this chapter is organized into seven sections: The first section discusses the structure  
and makeup of the Indian automobile industry. The second section analyzes the  
growth of the sector over the past decades, while the third section discusses the role  
of government. The fourth section deals with other enabling factors in the growth of  
the industry. The fifth section analyzes initiatives in upgrading and innovation. The  
sixth section includes a discussion of the future scenario and the seventh section  
concludes.  

The Indian automobile industry – comprising of the automobile and the automotive  
components segments – is one of the key drivers of economic growth of India. Being  
deeply integrated with other industrial sectors, it is a major driver of the manufacturing  
gross domestic product (GDP), exports, and employment. This sector has grown on  
account of its traditional strengths in casting, forging and precision machining,  

[Type text]   Page 3  


[Type the document title]  
5
fabricating (welding, grinding, and polishing) and cost advantages (on account of  
availability of abundant low-cost skilled labor), and significant foreign direct  
investment (FDI) inflows.  

India was the sixth largest producer of automobiles globally with an average annual  
production of about 29 million vehicles in 2017–2018, of which about 4 million were  
1
exported. India  is the largest tractor manufacturer, second largest two-wheeler  
manufacturer, second largest bus manufacturer, fifth largest heavy truck  
manufacturer, sixth largest car manufacturer, and eighth largest commercial vehicle  
manufacturer. The contribution of this sector to GDP has increased from 2.77% in  
1992–1993 to about 7.1% now and accounts for about 49% of manufacturing GDP  
5
(2015–2016). It  employs more than 29 million people (direct and indirect  
employment). The turnover of the automobile industry is approximately US$  
62
67 billion (2016–2017) and that of the component industry is US$ 43.5 billion (2015–  
46
2016). As per the OICA statistics, the Indian industry accounted for 4.92% of vehicle  
production globally in 2017 (5.38% of production in the car segment and 3.48% of  
production in the commercial vehicle segment).  

4
Role of the Government  

The automobile industry has in many ways been shaped by the Indian Government’s  
policy and nurtured in microeconomic environment it helped to create. Apart from the  
direct impact through fiscal policy instruments, the industry policy even influenced  
firm-level learning processes and shaped technological capability accumulation.  

Since 1970, the Indian Government gradually added the automotive industry to a list  
of its core or “pillar” industries, recognizing it as a significant driver to achieve  
economic growth since it had many forward and backward linkages. The industry  
began to be prioritized in the manufacturing sector for promotion and favorable policy  
support to promote productivity. In 1975, as a general industrial policy, the  
government permitted an automatic capacity expansion by 25% every 5 years and  
removed price controls.  

The share of commercial vehicles and passenger car segment also changed in response  
to policy changes. Indian policy had favored the development of the commercial  
vehicles industry, i.e., light and heavy vehicles (for public transport of goods and  

[Type text]   Page 4  


[Type the document title]  

passengers), as opposed to the development of passenger vehicles. Cars in particular  


were considered as luxury goods. By the early 1980s, the government had realized the  
need to develop the passenger vehicle segment and took decisions like permitting  
increased foreign capital and overseas collaborations and reduced production licenses  
on manufacturing operations. In 1981, the policy of “broad-banded” licenses was  
announced – permitting vehicle manufacturers to produce different kinds of vehicles  
instead of just one kind decreed earlier. Firms were allowed greater flexibility in  
operations through policies such as minimum economic scale requirements,  
exemption from detailed Monopolies and Restrictive Trade Practices (MRTP)  
4
Act notification procedures. The components sector was also de-licensed substantially

Meaning and Definition  

Marketing is the process by which companies determine what products or  


services may be of interest to customers and give greatest opportunities to  
increase sales and achieve a sustainable competitive advantage in business. A  
marketing strategy serves as the base of a marketing plan designed to fill  
market needs and reach marketing objectives. A marketing plan contains a list  
of specific actions required to successfully implement a specific marketing  
strategy to achieve goal and objectives of the organization.  

History of Marketing Strategy  


There has been a drastic change in the marketing strategies adopted by  
Companies, Banks, and Industries etc in last two decades. The scenario has  
been changed completely after a new era of Liberalization, Globalization and  
Privatization (LPG). The approach and basis has been changed on which  
enterprises is expected to make available the satisfaction to the customers. The  
history of marketing strategy is as old as business because no business can be  
run without having a proper strategy to implement the plans 76 and thus  
identified as a stimulatory subject. There is a difference of opinion between  
some authors who think marketing strategy is relevant to business and few  
think that marketing strategy is of strategic importance to the business. The  
history of marketing strategy is quite different from the present state. The root  
of the marketing strategy is described in early marketing management and  
later in corporate marketing. The historical perspective demonstrates how  
various strategic approaches can be integrated into a comprehensive  
conceptual framework for marketing strategy.  

Development of the Marketing Strategy  


The development of a marketing strategy involves the isolation of a target  
market segment, a set of clear cut goals, a fair amount of consumer research,  
and the implementation of initiatives aimed at getting the word out. Clear-cut  
goals are an essential part of marketing strategy development. Effective  
marketing starts with a considered well-informed marketing strategy. A good  
marketing strategy helps in defining the vision mission and business goals.  
The marketing strategy should be well planned and developed in consultation

27
with the team involved. It is a wide reaching and comprehensive strategic  
planning tool that are:  

1. Describe the business and its products and services  

2. Explains the position and role of the products and services in the market  

3. Profile the customers and competition  

4. Identifies the marketing tactics that will be used.  

5. Allow building marketing plan and measuring its effectiveness.  

Literature review:  

1) Atul Prakash (2013) BAJAJ Brand serves as the visual representation of our ideas and  
72
deeds. It communicates to everyone our aim to consistently instill confidence. The key  
audience for our brand is our consumers. In fact, their faith in Bajaj has had just as big  
of an impact on our brand identity as has our own vision. Every action we take serves  
to further the strength and distinctiveness of our brand. We achieve this by living out  
our brand essence and always looking for ways to improve the experience of our  
consumers. Our brand's essence captures Bajaj's objective. It is the lone embodiment  
of our company's commitment to its clients. It offers the foundation for wegrow to  
operate effectively in the market. blending in and meeting our clients' unspoken  
expectations. By contesting the established.

2) Nagasimha Balakrishna (2015) Innovation leads to a process of change in  
organizations and its market offerings, and is a key weapon that marketing strategists  
use to win customers and markets, through the development of sustainable  
competitive advantage. Innovations use assets and competencies of the organization  
along with innovation processes to bring about new or different market offerings,  
11
which when successful in the market bring in immense value to the firm. However for  
an innovation to succeed as a competitive advantage there should be a fructification  
of the innovation advantage through appropriate competitive marketing strategies.  
25
3) Mona Sinha (2018) Emerging markets are the growth engines of the world but they  
differ significantly from developed countries. Multinationals tend to flounder in these  

[Type text]   Page 11  


[Type the document title]  

countries due to the challenges posed by five key emerging market characteristics:  
market heterogeneity, sociopolitical governance, unbranded competition, chronic  
shortage of resources and inadequate infrastructure. Reducing the negative impact of  
these emerging market characteristics can increase the ratio of first-time users to  
nonusers thereby resulting in large scale market expansion. To this end, we propose  
eight marketing strategies rooted in the 4 A's framework: Affordability through  
democratizing and upscaling the offer;  
4) Chinmoy Ghosh (2017) The domestic consumer electronics and durables sector have  
83 75
witnessed a substantial growth over the last few years. This sector plays an important  
8
part in the economy of the country and provides employment to millions of people,  
38
more importantly to a large number of women in the country. Giving consumers  
greater bargaining power which in turn has forced particular product to devise  
strategies that they consider suit the ever changing marketing environment in order to  
be competitive and it’s for reason that this study evaluated promotion, price variation,  
location and improved customer as strategies adopted for competitive edge and  
identify a strategy with greater returns. India can emerge as the future manufacturing  
hub for the region, provided there is adequate focus and support from the Government  
for this sector.  
26
5) Bibhu SantoshBehera (2015) Now this era of Agriculture is treated as ICT mediated  
Market Led Agriculture Extension era. So in this Information revolution age we can’t  
able to survive without Information. As per R.T.I. act 2005 every person deserves  
his/her right for Information. So by giving respect to Information we should create a  
73
Revolution on Information by the enchanting mantra “Soochana se Samadhan”. India  
26
is second largest producer of commodities such as fruits and vegetables. One of the  
key issues, which require research, is the method by which we can reduce the post  
harvest loss, which is quite substantial at present.  
70
6) Milad Kalantari Shahijan (2018) The purpose of this paper is to investigate the  
qualities of delighted cruise travelling experience and proposed cruisers’ experience,  
service convenience and perceived overall value as the drivers of cruisers’ satisfaction  
and revisit intention. Thus, the attributes of an effective cruise-marketing strategy in  
formulating consumer’s recreational experiences are examined.

to overcome these problems many strategies have been considered and are known by

different names, such as Green revolution, going green, protection of  


environment or environment protection, sustainable development, sustaining  
life style, protecting our planet, is a great natural phenomenon in our day to  
day life. Green marketing and its strategies is a tool used or applied by many  
companies. Lot of review have been done on green marketing over the years ,  
in this paper we will see that how customers and companies have adopted  
this green revolution in their life and are trying to gift a new and balanced  
earth to their off springs.  
84
8) Aditi Naidu (2017) The present paper brings together recent research findings and on-  
15
ground efforts of marketing to the rural Indian customer. The major premise of the  
paper is that to serve the rural markets, marketers need to plan and implement the 4  
As of marketing mix. Drawing from literature review as well as from real life  
marketing exercises as found in news articles in business periodicals, textbooks, and  
case studies, the paper presents the Indian rural marketing experience so far. By  
bringing out the current practices in rural marketing in India, the paper demonstrates  
strategies for effective marketing to the rural markets in India as anchored on the 4 As  
model of rural marketing.  
12
9) Dr. Sanjay Sharma (2017) Marketing strategy is outlined by David Aaker as a method  
that may enable a company to concentrate its resources on the optimum opportunities  
with the goals of accelerating sales and achieving a property competitive advantage.  
Promoting methods includes all basic and long-run activities within the field of selling  
that subsume the analysis of the strategic initial scenario of a corporation and also the  
formulation, analysis and choice of market-oriented methods and thus contribute to  
the goals of the corporate and its promoting objectives. Whereas ways could is a tool  
to achieve the goals set beneath strategy. Now, a lot of aggressive mode of selling  
methods is utilized by all the FMCG corporations in India, particularly in country  
because it remains an untapped marketplace for all the businesses in India. This a

markets, through the development of sustainable competitive advantage. Innovations

competitive advantage there should be a fructification of the innovation advantage  


through appropriate competitive marketing strategies. Innovations are often motivated  
by ‘innovation events’. Processes that foster transformation of ‘innovation events’ to  
‘innovations’ is the new product process or the innovation process system.  
Innovations also lead to the creation of assets called intellectual property. Innovation  
creates and generates value and could reflect in both co-created value and shared  
value. Ultimately the purpose of innovation is for improving and increasing the  
delivery of superior meaning and superior value to the customer while making it  
relevant, different or new and valuable from the customer’s stand point.

11) Zuhairah Hasan (2015) This is a conceptual paper to study the impacts of green  
marketing strategy on the Malaysian certified ISO 14001 Environmental Management  
System firms’ performance. The paper aims at presenting the reviews of the literature  
on the green marketing and analyses the two factors that will influence the firms’  
performance. Despite the rising trend of consumers that willing to spend for a green

deal with burgeoning use of the internet, new electronic purchase methods, and a wide  
range of social media and online sales platforms. However, marketers are unclear  
33
about the pattern of influence of firm-initiated (i.e., paid media, owned media, and  
digital inbound marketing) and market-initiated (i.e., earned social media and organic  
search) digital communications on B2B sales and customer acquisition. We develop  
and test a model of digital echoverse in an emerging market B2B context, using vector  
autoregressive modeling to analyze a unique 132-week dataset from a Brazilian hub  
firm operating in the marketplace. We find empirical evidence supporting our  
conceptual framework in emerging markets.

14) Yogesh Hole (2018) Marketing concept was formerly built on manufacturing based  
model with products and goods-centered, for mainly economic exchange. It was  
developed, commencing from the time of the Industrial Revolution. After its  
conception, the marketing ideas began and thereafter, broadened their perspectives to  
involve exchange, substitute and replace with more marketing activities than goods  
and products manufactured. The formation of several sub-disciplines of service  
marketing explained the logic of product value and brand creation, and it has  
transpired to address several broadened perceptions and realities. Service marketing  
creates more influential programs, based models and it is apparent in the prototypical  
features, which are identified as distinctive services apart from products, having  
79
Inseparability, Heterogeneity, Intangibility, and Perishability. Therefore, this review  
paper argues that all these characteristics basically; (1) do not differentiate services  
from products and goods; (2) The service marketing and quality strategies have  
derived the meaning from the product manufacturing perspective; and (3) They  
employ very inappropriate and normative strategies. Many services provide the basic  
77
foundation highly productive service-dominant views of many exchanges that take  
place in service marketing, from which, appropriate strategies can be generated.

15) Mark B. Houston  (2017) This research investigates how national culture interacts  
with marketing strategy to influence consumers’ organic post-consumption  
satisfaction ratings of entertainment products rich in cultural content. Drawing upon  
a communication theory framework, we develop hypotheses concerning multiple  
interaction effects between culture and marketing strategies on consumers’ product  
evaluations. We test these hypotheses by analyzing consumer reviews of 260 movies  
in 25 country markets. In support of our hypotheses, we find that the cultural  
congruence between the product and the market improves consumer reviews, and that  
the effect is stronger in cultures characterized by collectivism, femininity, and  
uncertainty avoidance, as well as for products more heavily loaded with cultural  
content.

17) Man Yang (2018) The extant research lacks information on entrepreneurial marketing  
in large international firms. This study explores the international entrepreneurial  
marketing strategies of multinational corporations (MNCs), and its results reveal that  
MNC marketing managers use bricolage to develop international entrepreneurial  
marketing. A novel finding of the study is that the international entrepreneurial  
marketing strategies of MNCs include co-innovation, accelerating customer value,  
and international expansion based on regional market leadership. Marketing managers  
use both parallel and selective bricolage in their international entrepreneurial  
marketing.

56
marketing effort because of the recent increase in the rural incomes and the likelihood  
15
that such incomes will increase faster because of better production and higher pr ices  
29
for agricultural commodities. Rural Marketing is a developing concept, and as a part  
of any economy has untapped potential; marketers have realized the opportunity  
recently. Improvement in infrastructure and reach promise a bright future for those  
intending to go rural. Any macro-level strategy for these markets should focus on  
availability, accessibility and affordability. Focused attention needs to be paid to  
market research that goes on to reduce the uncertainly in dealing with these markets.  
More specifically, in relation to rural areas, demand is seen to a very highly price  
elastic.

players in the industry are equipping themselves to face the challenge of fierce  
competition which has resulted in many an established retail player quitting the  
market. Sensing the favourable business environment in India, characterized by a

examine the perspective of global marketing strategy as an evolutionary process. Next,  
they divide markets into five major spheres, examining the economic and cultural  
diversity of markets in each. Next, they discuss the resultant need to develop and  
implement different strategies for markets in each of these spheres.

people prefer to get first-hand information from the internet. Being a terrific medium  
of communication, internet not only helps people to stay informed but gives them a  
fair idea about the consumer market as well. Hence, it is important to analyze and

paper. Emphasis is on the conflict among interests of organizations and interests of  
individuals, as well as on existent differences with transactional and prescriptive-  
pecuniary individualistic approach. Because of this, it is proposed that different forms  
of community organization, through using coalitions, grassroots organization,  
community leadership, empowerment and other forms of development and  
community building, must be integrated into relationship marketing. This sets a  
relationship of organizations with individuals embedded in community.
