3.Large domestic market- a population of over one billion.
4. Large untapped market available, especially the rural areas.
5. Export potential- expansion of horizons towards more and
more countries.
6. Opportunity in food sector.

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
THREATS
− Intense and increasing competition from local as well as
MNC players
− The standardization of packaging norms that is likely to be
implemented by the Government by Jan 2013 is expected to
increase
cost
of
beverages,
cereals,
edible
oil, detergent, flour, salt, aerated drinks and mineral water.
− Steadily rising fuel costs, leading to increased distribution
costs.
− The declining value of rupee against other currencies may
reduce margins of many companies, as Marico, Godrej
Consumer Products, Colgate, Dabur, etc. who import raw
materials.

Issues in Tax Policy in India
Major Threat: Tax and regulatory structure
1) Extremely high incidence of tax on certain product
categories
Some FMCG products such as shampoos, processed
food, soft drinks and toiletries containing alcohol attract high
rates of excise duty and sales tax. The total tax incidence in
some cases is more than 60 per cent of the cost or more than
30 per cent of MRP. Such high tax incidence hampers growth
of these product categories besides encouraging manufacture
of spurious products and smuggling.

Issues in Tax Policy
2) Cascading effect of Special Excise Duty
− In production process, raw material passes through
various processes stages till a final product emerges.
Thus, output of the first manufacturer becomes input for
second manufacturer and so on.
− In other words, the tax burden goes on increasing as raw
material and final product passes from one stage to other
because, each subsequent purchaser has to pay tax
again and again on the material which has already
suffered tax. This is called cascading effect or double
taxation.
Source: Business portal of India
BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
Issues in Tax Policy in India
3) Inverted Duty structure for selected inputs
Duty on certain raw materials is higher or the same as
compared to finished products in which these materials are
used. Such raw materials include oils and chemicals like Soda
ash, caustic soda etc. In addition to customs duty, raw
materials are also subject to sales tax and therefore total tax
incidence and cost of local manufacture goes up.
4) High taxes on processed foods
The
existing
tax
structure
and
its
high
overall
incidence, hampering the growth of the processed industry. The
increase in excise duty in last year‟s budget from 8% to 16%
has adversely affected the growth of processed foods industry.
BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
Issues in Tax Policy in India
5) Irrational domestic tax structure encouraging imports
− Significant reduction in custom duty rates of consumer
goods has made imported product cheaper as compared to
local manufactured products.
− For instance, goods manufactured in India suffer from
cascading effects of taxes on inputs as additional cost
compared to imports.

Proposed strategies
The main objective is to generate a competitive
advantage, increase the loyalty of customers and to beat
competitors.
1. Expansion Strategies
2. Distribution Strategies
3. Innovation Strategies
4. Promotional Strategies
5. Pricing Strategies
6. Digital Strategies
7. Sustainable Growth Strategies

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
1. Expansion strategies
1.1 Expansion through Concentration
1.2 Expansion through integration
1.3 Expansion through diversification

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
CONCENTRATION
STRATEGIES
• When an organisation focuses on intensifying its core
businesses with a view on expanding through either
acquiring a new customer base or diversifying its product
portfolio, it is having a concentration strategy

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
TYPES OF CONCENTRATION
STRATEGIES
MARKET PENETRATION – Selling more products in the
same market
MARKET DEVELOPMENT – Selling same products to new
markets
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT – Selling new products to the
same market
Example:
Bajaj Auto has undertaken all the above mentioned
strategies

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
INTEGRATION STRATEGIES
• Integration means combining activities related to the
present activity of a company
• Integration is part of the diversification strategy
• It widens the scope for a company as far is the market
penetration is concerned.

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
TYPES OF INTEGRATION
STRATEGIES
Horizontal Integration
Vertical Integration

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
HORIZONTAL INTEGRATION
Horizontal Integration: When an organization takes up the
same types of products at the same level of production
or marketing process, it is said to follow a strategy of
Horizontal Integration (Also known as
Merger/Acquisition)
Example: Takeover of Satyam by Mahindra

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
VERTICAL INTEGRATION
Vertical Integration: Expansion to serve its own needs.
Vertical Integration is of two types, namely Backward
and Forward Integration
- Backward Integration means going back
to
the source of raw materials
(Example: A Thermal power company may do coal-mining)
- Forward Integration implies moving
closer to
the finished product (example: A car spare parts
manufacturer would start manufacturing passenger cars)

2. Distribution Strategies
• A plan created by the management of
a manufacturing business that specifies how the firm intends
to transfer its products to intermediaries, retailers and
end consumers.
• Larger companies involved in making products will usually
also put together a detailed production distribution strategy to
guide its entry into its intended market.

Agents/brokers
Wholesalers/distributors
Retailers

Consumers and organizational end users

BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
Distribution Strategies
 Exclusive Distribution
•

Limiting the distribution to only one intermediary in
the territory

 Intensive distribution
•

Distribute from as many outlets as possible to provide
location convenience

 Selective distribution
•

Appoint several but not all retailers
33

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Exclusive Distribution

• It is a situation where suppliers and distributors enter into
an exclusive agreement that only allows the named distributor
to sell a specific product
• Means that the producer selects only very few intermediaries.
• Exclusive distribution is often characterised by exclusive dealing
where the reseller carries only that producer's products to the
exclusion of all others

34

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Exclusive Distribution:
Advantages
•

Maximize control over service level/output

•

Enhance product‟s image & allow higher markups

•

Promotes dealers loyalty, better forecasting, better

inventory and merchandising control
•

Restricts resellers from carrying competing brands

35

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Exclusive Distribution:
Disadvantages
• Betting on one dealer in each market
• Only suitable for high price, high margin, and
low volume products

36

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Intensive Distribution
• The producer's products are stocked in the
majority of outlets.
• It is a strategy under which a company sells its
product through as many outlets as possible so
that the customers encounter the product
virtually everywhere they go.

37

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Intensive Distribution
 Advantages:

 Increased

sales,

wider

customer

recognition, and impulse buying
 Disadvantages:
 Characteristically low price and low-margin
products that require a fast turnover

 Difficult to control large number of retailers
38

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Example of Intensive
Distribution
• Newspapers, soft drinks
• Most of the fast moving consumer goods

39

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Selective Distribution
• Selective Distribution is a type of distribution
that lies between intensive and exclusive
distribution.

•

This

basically

involves

using

more

than

one, but lesser than all the intermediaries who
carry the company‟s products

40

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Selective Distribution
•

Advantages:

•

Better

market

coverage

than

exclusive

distribution
•

More control and less cost than intensive

distribution
•

Concentrate effort on few productive outlets

•

Selected firms capable of carrying full product
line and provide the required service
41

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Selective Distribution (cont’d)
Disadvantages:
– May not cover the market adequately
– Difficult to select dealers (retailers) that can

match your requirement and goals

42

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Multiple-Channel Strategy
Using two or more different channels to distribute
goods and services
 Why?
 Permits optimal access to each market segment
 Increase market coverage, lower channel cost and provide more customized
selling

 What to look out for?
 More channels usually means more conflict and control problems

43

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Complementary Channels
Each channel handles a product or segment that is

different or non-competing e.g.
•

Toyota Lexus

•

MPH online portals

•

Magazine distributions

44
BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Competitive Channels
The same product is sold through two different and

competing channels e.g.
•

Non-prescriptive drugs

•

Electronic goods

• Why? To increase sales
• What to look out for?
•

Over extending yourself

•

Dealers‟ resentment

•

Control problems

45

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Modifying Distribution
Strategies
Modify when the following changes occur:

•

Consumer markets and buying habits

•

Customer needs

•

Competitor‟s perspectives

•

Relative importance of outlet types

•

Manufacturer‟s financial strength

•

Sales volume level of existing products, and

•

The marketing mix
46

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
E-Commerce: Online
Distribution
•

One of the importance of any website or business

is to bring the products or services to the right
people and to reach the target audience.
•

There are a number of different distribution
channels available on the Internet which could be
utilised efficiently to the benefits of any company

47

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Selecting Channels of
Distribution
 In either the presence or the absence of a
traditional channel, a primary constraint is that of
the availability of various types of middlemen
 Selecting a channel of distribution can hinge on
one of these factors





Distribution coverage required
Degree of control desired
Total distribution cost
Channel flexibility

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Selecting Channels of
Distribution
 Distribution coverage – Channel selection may
depend upon the nature of market coverage
desired
 Intensive distribution – Using as many
wholesalers and retailers as possible
 Selective distribution – Using only the best
available per geographic area
 Exclusive distribution – Selected intermediaries
are given exclusive rights within a particular territory

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Selecting Channels of
Distribution
 Degree of control desired – Achieved by the seller is proportionate

to the directness of channel
 Total distribution cost – Channel should be viewed as a total
system composed of interdependent subsystems
 Objective should be to optimize total system performance
 Generally assumed that the total system should be designed to
minimize costs, other things being equal
 Channel flexibility – Ability of the manufacturer to adapt to
changing conditions

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
3. INNOVATION STRATEGIES
 Innovation is introducing something new in the
economy, that can be new means of sources of raw
materials, new methods of production, etc..
 Advantages:
• Use open innovation to reduce R&D costs
• Use process innovation to reduce operating costs
• Use innovation to match supply and demand
• Solve your customers‟ pain
• Use innovation to improve your suppliers‟ business

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Types Of Innovative Strategies
1. INVENTIVE (First to market)
2. ADAPTIVE (Second but “best”)
3. ECONOMIC (Low cost producer)

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
Ways Of Innovation Strategies

BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
5. Pricing Strategies
Market-penetration pricing
- setting the price as low as possible to win a large
market share, then cut price further as falling costs are
experienced (Ex: IKEA Home Furnishings)
May be adopted under the following conditions:
a. the market is highly price sensitive and a low price
stimulates market growth;
b. production and distribution costs fall with accumulated
production experience;
c. a low price discourages actual and potential
competition.
BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
5. Pricing Strategies
Mark-up pricing
- the most elementary pricing method which adds a
standard mark-up to the product‟s cost
- the most popular pricing strategy
Advantages of mark-up pricing:
a. sellers can determine costs much more easily than they
can estimate demand
b. where all firms in the industry use this pricing
method, prices tend to be similar and price competition is
minimized
c. many people feel that cost-plus pricing is fairer to both
buyers and sellers
BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
5. Pricing Strategies
Target-return pricing
- determining the price that would yield its target
return on investment (ROI) (Ex. General Motors
priced its automobiles 15%-20% ROI)
- tends to ignore price elasticity and competitors‟
prices

BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
Pricing Strategies
Perceived-value pricing
- made up of several elements, such as the
buyers‟ image of the product performance, the
warranty quality, customer support, and softer
attributes such as the suppliers‟
reputation, trustworthiness, and esteem.
- firms use the other marketing mix
elements, such as advertising and sales force, to
communicate and enhance perceived value in
buyers‟ minds.
BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
Pricing Strategies
Value pricing
- charging a fairly low price for a high-quality
offering
- reengineering the company‟s operations to
become a low-cost producer without sacrificing
quality, to attract a large number of valueconscious customers

Practitioners of value pricing: IKEA Home
Furnishings, Procter & Gamble
BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
Pricing Strategies
Going-rate pricing
- the firm bases its price largely on competitors‟
prices, charging the same, more or less than major
competitors
- smaller firms “follow the leader” when the market
leader‟s prices change rather than when their own
demand or costs change
- where costs are difficult to measure or competitive
response is uncertain, firms feel the going price is a
good solution because it is thought to reflect the
industry‟s collective wisdom
BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
Pricing Strategies
Auction-type pricing
- usually done using the Internet (Ex. Ebay) to dispose of excess
inventories or used goods.
3 major types of auctions:
1. English auctions (ascending bids) where there is one seller and
many buyers
2. Dutch auctions (descending bids) where there is one buyer and
many sellers. The buyer announces what he/she wants to buy and
potential sellers compete by offering the lowest price
3. Sealed-bid auctions – would-be suppliers can submit only one bid
and cannot know the other bids

BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
Pricing Strategies
Geographical pricing
- the company decides how to price its products to
different customers in different locations and
countries
- company may charge higher prices to distant
customers to cover the higher shipping costs

BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
Pricing Strategies
Geographical pricing
Pricing options for geographical pricing:
Barter – the buyer and seller directly exchange goods, with no
money and no third party involved
Compensation deal– the seller receives some percentage of the
payment in cash and the rest in products
Buyback arrangement – the seller sells a plant, equipment, or
technology to another country and agrees to accept as partial
payment products manufactured with the supplied equipment
Offset – the seller receives full payment in cash but agrees to
spend a substantial amount of the money in that country within a
stated time period

BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
Pricing Strategies
Promotional pricing
- companies use several pricing techniques to stimulate early
purchase
Techniques:
 Loss-leader pricing
 Special-event pricing
 Cash rebates
 Low-interest financing
 Longer payment terms
 Warranties and service contracts
 Psychological discounting
BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
Pricing Strategies
Differentiated pricing
- companies often adjust their basic price to accommodate
differences in customers, products, locations, and so on

  • 19. Issues in Tax Policy in India Major Threat: Tax and regulatory structure 1) Extremely high incidence of tax on certain product categories Some FMCG products such as shampoos, processed food, soft drinks and toiletries containing alcohol attract high rates of excise duty and sales tax. The total tax incidence in some cases is more than 60 per cent of the cost or more than 30 per cent of MRP. Such high tax incidence hampers growth of these product categories besides encouraging manufacture of spurious products and smuggling. Source: 1. India Policy Forum 2. "IMF lowers India's growth forecast to 6.1% for 2012". The Hindustan Times. 16 July 2012 BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
  • 20. Issues in Tax Policy 2) Cascading effect of Special Excise Duty − In production process, raw material passes through various processes stages till a final product emerges. Thus, output of the first manufacturer becomes input for second manufacturer and so on. − In other words, the tax burden goes on increasing as raw material and final product passes from one stage to other because, each subsequent purchaser has to pay tax again and again on the material which has already suffered tax. This is called cascading effect or double taxation. Source: Business portal of India BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
  • 21. Issues in Tax Policy in India 3) Inverted Duty structure for selected inputs Duty on certain raw materials is higher or the same as compared to finished products in which these materials are used. Such raw materials include oils and chemicals like Soda ash, caustic soda etc. In addition to customs duty, raw materials are also subject to sales tax and therefore total tax incidence and cost of local manufacture goes up. 4) High taxes on processed foods The existing tax structure and its high overall incidence, hampering the growth of the processed industry. The increase in excise duty in last year‟s budget from 8% to 16% has adversely affected the growth of processed foods industry. BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
  • 22. Issues in Tax Policy in India 5) Irrational domestic tax structure encouraging imports − Significant reduction in custom duty rates of consumer goods has made imported product cheaper as compared to local manufactured products. − For instance, goods manufactured in India suffer from cascading effects of taxes on inputs as additional cost compared to imports.

  • 31. 2. Distribution Strategies • A plan created by the management of a manufacturing business that specifies how the firm intends to transfer its products to intermediaries, retailers and end consumers. • Larger companies involved in making products will usually also put together a detailed production distribution strategy to guide its entry into its intended market. BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
  • 32. Basic Channels of Distribution Manufacturers/products Agents/brokers Wholesalers/distributors Retailers Retailers Consumers and organizational end users BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
  • 33. Distribution Strategies  Exclusive Distribution • Limiting the distribution to only one intermediary in the territory  Intensive distribution • Distribute from as many outlets as possible to provide location convenience  Selective distribution • Appoint several but not all retailers 33 BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
  • 34. Exclusive Distribution • It is a situation where suppliers and distributors enter into an exclusive agreement that only allows the named distributor to sell a specific product • Means that the producer selects only very few intermediaries. • Exclusive distribution is often characterised by exclusive dealing where the reseller carries only that producer's products to the exclusion of all others 34 BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
  • 35. Exclusive Distribution: Advantages • Maximize control over service level/output • Enhance product‟s image & allow higher markups • Promotes dealers loyalty, better forecasting, better inventory and merchandising control • Restricts resellers from carrying competing brands 35 BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
  • 36. Exclusive Distribution: Disadvantages • Betting on one dealer in each market • Only suitable for high price, high margin, and low volume products 36 BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
  • 37. Intensive Distribution • The producer's products are stocked in the majority of outlets. • It is a strategy under which a company sells its product through as many outlets as possible so that the customers encounter the product virtually everywhere they go. 37 BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
  • 38. Intensive Distribution  Advantages:  Increased sales, wider customer recognition, and impulse buying  Disadvantages:  Characteristically low price and low-margin products that require a fast turnover  Difficult to control large number of retailers 38 BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
  • 39. Example of Intensive Distribution • Newspapers, soft drinks • Most of the fast moving consumer goods 39 BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
  • 40. Selective Distribution • Selective Distribution is a type of distribution that lies between intensive and exclusive distribution. • This basically involves using more than one, but lesser than all the intermediaries who carry the company‟s products 40 BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
  • 41. Selective Distribution • Advantages: • Better market coverage than exclusive distribution • More control and less cost than intensive distribution • Concentrate effort on few productive outlets • Selected firms capable of carrying full product line and provide the required service 41 BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
  • 42. Selective Distribution (cont’d) Disadvantages: – May not cover the market adequately – Difficult to select dealers (retailers) that can match your requirement and goals 42 BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
  • 43. Multiple-Channel Strategy Using two or more different channels to distribute goods and services  Why?  Permits optimal access to each market segment  Increase market coverage, lower channel cost and provide more customized selling  What to look out for?  More channels usually means more conflict and control problems 43 BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
  • 44. Complementary Channels Each channel handles a product or segment that is different or non-competing e.g. • Toyota Lexus • MPH online portals • Magazine distributions 44 BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
  • 45. Competitive Channels The same product is sold through two different and competing channels e.g. • Non-prescriptive drugs • Electronic goods • Why? To increase sales • What to look out for? • Over extending yourself • Dealers‟ resentment • Control problems 45 BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
  • 46. Modifying Distribution Strategies Modify when the following changes occur: • Consumer markets and buying habits • Customer needs • Competitor‟s perspectives • Relative importance of outlet types • Manufacturer‟s financial strength • Sales volume level of existing products, and • The marketing mix 46 BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
  • 47.

  • 48. Selecting Channels of Distribution  In either the presence or the absence of a traditional channel, a primary constraint is that of the availability of various types of middlemen  Selecting a channel of distribution can hinge on one of these factors     Distribution coverage required Degree of control desired Total distribution cost Channel flexibility BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
  • 49. Selecting Channels of Distribution  Distribution coverage – Channel selection may depend upon the nature of market coverage desired  Intensive distribution – Using as many wholesalers and retailers as possible  Selective distribution – Using only the best available per geographic area  Exclusive distribution – Selected intermediaries are given exclusive rights within a particular territory BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus
  • 50. Selecting Channels of Distribution  Degree of control desired – Achieved by the seller is proportionate to the directness of channel  Total distribution cost – Channel should be viewed as a total system composed of interdependent subsystems  Objective should be to optimize total system performance  Generally assumed that the total system should be designed to minimize costs, other things being equal  Channel flexibility – Ability of the manufacturer to adapt to changing conditions BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus

BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
  • 57. 5. Pricing Strategies Mark-up pricing - the most elementary pricing method which adds a standard mark-up to the product‟s cost - the most popular pricing strategy Advantages of mark-up pricing: a. sellers can determine costs much more easily than they can estimate demand b. where all firms in the industry use this pricing method, prices tend to be similar and price competition is minimized c. many people feel that cost-plus pricing is fairer to both buyers and sellers BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
  • 58. 5. Pricing Strategies Target-return pricing - determining the price that would yield its target return on investment (ROI) (Ex. General Motors priced its automobiles 15%-20% ROI) - tends to ignore price elasticity and competitors‟ prices BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
  • 59. Pricing Strategies Perceived-value pricing - made up of several elements, such as the buyers‟ image of the product performance, the warranty quality, customer support, and softer attributes such as the suppliers‟ reputation, trustworthiness, and esteem. - firms use the other marketing mix elements, such as advertising and sales force, to communicate and enhance perceived value in buyers‟ minds.

  • 60. Pricing Strategies Value pricing - charging a fairly low price for a high-quality offering - reengineering the company‟s operations to become a low-cost producer without sacrificing quality, to attract a large number of valueconscious customers Practitioners of value pricing: IKEA Home Furnishings, Procter & Gamble BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
  • 61. Pricing Strategies Going-rate pricing - the firm bases its price largely on competitors‟ prices, charging the same, more or less than major competitors - smaller firms “follow the leader” when the market leader‟s prices change rather than when their own demand or costs change - where costs are difficult to measure or competitive response is uncertain, firms feel the going price is a good solution because it is thought to reflect the industry‟s collective wisdom BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
  • 62. Pricing Strategies Auction-type pricing - usually done using the Internet (Ex. Ebay) to dispose of excess inventories or used goods. 3 major types of auctions: 1. English auctions (ascending bids) where there is one seller and many buyers 2. Dutch auctions (descending bids) where there is one buyer and many sellers. The buyer announces what he/she wants to buy and potential sellers compete by offering the lowest price 3. Sealed-bid auctions – would-be suppliers can submit only one bid and cannot know the other bids BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956

Pricing Strategies Geographical pricing - the company decides how to price its products to different customers in different locations and countries - company may charge higher prices to distant customers to cover the higher shipping costs BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
  • 64. Pricing Strategies Geographical pricing Pricing options for geographical pricing: Barter – the buyer and seller directly exchange goods, with no money and no third party involved Compensation deal– the seller receives some percentage of the payment in cash and the rest in products Buyback arrangement – the seller sells a plant, equipment, or technology to another country and agrees to accept as partial payment products manufactured with the supplied equipment Offset – the seller receives full payment in cash but agrees to spend a substantial amount of the money in that country within a stated time period BITS Pilani, Deemed to be University under Section 3 of UGC Act, 1956
