INDUSTRY SCENARIO

 The Indian FMCG sector has a total market size in excess of USD16bn. As per India brand
equity foundation, the market size of the sector is set to double to USD33.4bn by 2015.
Burgeoning Indian population, particularly the middle class and prospering rural
economy, presents an opportunity to makers of branded products to upgrade consumers
to branded products.

 Rising Disposable income levels

– According to a Mckinsey report, average real household disposable income is

expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.3% till 2025. This expected rise in disposable
income would boost consumer's spending power, giving them an opportunity to
splurge on branded consumer products.
INDUSTRY SCENARIO (Cont..)

 Demographic dividend

– The demographic advantage or dividend is based on the fact that India is (and will
remain for some time) a very young country.
– The urban population between the ages of 15 to 34 years is expected to increase
from 107 mn in 2001 to 138 mn in 2011. This 30% increase coupled with a rising
disposable income is expected to create a new set of buyers with a discerning
consumer mindset and higher spending power. This consumer segment would in
all probability adopt the beauty and wellness trend faster than the previous
generation.

Parachute

Parachute is premium edible grade coconut oil, a market leader in its category.
Synonymous with pure coconut oil in the market, Parachute is positioned on the
platform of purity. Parachute is also available in pouch packs, to service the rural
sectors, increasing penetration. While the positioning of Parachute has always been
on purity, the communication has evolved over time to appeal to different
consumer sets.

Some of the examples of innovation for Parachute are:

• Flip Top Cap for Parachute bottles to enhance the safety and protect the purity of
oil. 
• Easy Jar of Parachute to facilitate usage especially during winters. 
• Parachute Mini - a bottle shaped small pack being sold at an MRP of Re. 1  
• 20 ml Parachute - a Rs 5 SKU that enables loose oil users to upgrade to Parachute
These innovations have have propelled further penetration, enabling conversion of
loose oil consumers to packaged Parachute Coconut Oil.
Hair & Care

Hair & Care, a pleasantly perfumed non-sticky hair oil is a strong brand in
its category.

It is positioned on the platform of being the lightest perfumed hair oil

offering both "Style & Nourishment".

with "Herbal Proteins", which nourishes hair with their natural goodness.

(40%) contains Vitamin E. Vitamin E is a well-known and potent antioxidant.

Safflower (Kardi) Oil:

This has the highest levels of Linoleic acid, an omega-6-polyunsaturated fatty
acid, which is well known in reducing cholesterol levels.

Rice Bran Oil (RBO):

Heart healthy nutrients in RBO such as tocopherols, tocotrienols and oryzanol
are known for their cholesterol lowering ability.
All Saffola oils come with 'LoSorb Technology'. Food fried in Saffola oils absorbs
less oil and thus reduces the consumption of oil in your diet
Sweekar

Sweekar is a national brand comprising of Refined Sunflower Oil. Sweekar

has become synonymous with good quality light edible oil. It is
positioned as a light and healthy cooking medium.

The Sunflower category emerged in 1988 - 89 and Sweekar quickly

became one of the leading brands in this category. The positioning of
Sweekar has evolved over time- from the initial stand of lightness and
88% saturated, fat-free - to that of "Achcha Khana, hansi khushi ka
Khazana" - to that of "Aapke haath mumkin har baat". It continues to be
one of the leading brands among refined oils in the consumer packs
