Introduction
An automobile or motor car is a wheeled motor vehicle for transporting
passengers; which also carries its own engine or motor. Most definitions of the
term specify automobiles are designed to run primarily on roads, to have . seating
for one to eight people, to typically have four wheels, and to be constructed
principally for the transport of people rather than goods.
Automobile comes via the French language, from the Greek auto [self] and
mobiles [moving]; meaning a vehicle that moves itself, rather than being pulled
or pushed separate animal or another vehicle.
Although Nicolas-Joseph Cugnot is often credited with building the first
self -propelled mechanical vehicle or automobile in about 1769.Richard
Trevithick built and demonstrated his Puffing Devil road locomotive in 18 In
1892, German engineer Rudolf Diesel was granted a patent for a "New Rational
Combustion Engine‖. In 1897 he built the first Diesel Engine. In 1895, Selden
was granted a United States patent (U.S. Patent 549,160) for a two-stroke
automobile engine. Steam, electric, and gasoline-powered autos competed for
decades, with gasoline –internal combustion engines achieving dominance in the
1910s.01, the first truly successful steam-powered road vehicle.
FUEL AND PROPULISION TECHNOLOGIES
Most automobiles in use today are propelled by gasoline (also known as
petrol) or diesel internal combustion engines, which are known to cause air
pollution and are also blamed for contributing to climate change and global
warming. Increasing costs of oil-based fuels, tightening environmental laws and
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 2
restrictions on greenhouse gas emissions are propelling work on alternative
power systems for automobiles. Efforts to improve or replace existing
technologies include the development of hybrid vehicles, and electric and
hydrogen vehicles which do not release pollution into the air.
DIESEL (DIESEL ENGINE)
Diesel-engine cars have been popular in Europe with the first models being
introduced in the 1930s by Mercedes Benz and Citroen. The main benefit of
diesel engines is a 50% fuel burn efficiency compared with 27%.
GASOLINE (PETROL ENGINE)
Gasoline engines have the advantage over diesel in being lighter and able
to work higher rotational speeds and they are the usual choice for fitting in high-
performance sports cars. Continuous development of gasoline engines for over a
hundred years has produced improvements in efficiency and reduced pollution.
BIOACOH QLS AND BIOGASOLINE
Ethanol, other alcohol fuels (biobutanol) and biogasoline have widespread
automotive fuel. Most alcohols have less energy per liter than gasoline and are
usually blended with gasoline.
ELECTRIC CARS
The first electric cars were built around 1832, well before internal combustion
powered cars appeared. For a period of time electrics were considered superior
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 3
due to the silent nature of electric motors compared to the very loud noise of the
gasoline engine.
STEAM CARS
Steam power, usually using an oil or gas heated boiler, was also in use until
the 1930s but had the major disadvantage of being unable to power the car until
boiler pressure was available.
COST AND BENEFITS OF USAGE
The costs of automobile usage, which may include the cost of: acquiring the
vehicle, repairs, maintenance, fuel, depreciation, parking fees, tire replacement,
taxes and insurance, are weighed against the cost of the alternatives, and the value
of the benefits – perceived and real of vehicle usage. The benefits may include on
– demand transportation, mobility, independence and convenience.
"INDIAN AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY"
Peter Drucker called the automobile industry as "the industry of industries".
During the last few years, the production and management systems have been
revolutionized in the automobile industry . One of the major changes in t h e
industry has been the opening up and growth of several emerging markets.
I n d i a is one of the most important emerging car economies in the world today.
In 1991, the Government of India embarked on an ambitious structural adjustment
programme aimed at economic liberalization, based on the pillars of Delicensing,
decontrol, Deregulation and Devaluation. Post-liberalization, the Government of
new automobile policy announced in June 1993 contained measures, such is deli
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 4
censing, automatic approval for foreign holding of 51% in Indian companies
abolition of phased manufacturing programme, reduction of excise duty to 40%
and import duties of CKD to 50% and of CBU to 50% and of CBU to 110%, and
commitment to indigenization schedules. The Government of India's new
automobile policy two Korean companies. Toyota end Chrysler are also seeking
to enter the country with suitable Indian partners. In addition, there are three
existing Indian companies, Hindustan Motors, Premier Automobiles and Telco,
and one Indo- Japanese venture, Maruti already in the passenger car market.
Maruti is by far the biggest player with about 70% of the market share. As of
April 1997, a total of 7 Automobile companies (Daewoo, Peugeot, Fiat, Ford,
General Motors, Merc, Audi) have already started selling cars, while another 8
companies (Honda, Renault, VW, BMW, Toyota, Hyundai, Chrysler) have either
begun operations in India or plan to start soon. Some Indian companies like
Telco and Kinetic are also working on introducing small car models.
THE INDIAN FOUR-WHEELER INDUSTRY
The 4W industry in India has not quite matched up to the performance of
nterparts in other parts of the world. The primary reason for this has been -
pervasive regulatory atmosphere prevailing till the opening up of the industry in
the mid-1990s. The various layers of legislative Acts sheltered the industry from
external competition for a long time. Moreover, the industry was considered low-
priority as cars were thought of as "unaffordable luxury".
Initially in the post-liberalization period, the automotive sector, especially the
passenger car segment, saw a boom. The buoyancy in the sector was derived
primary from economic vibrancy, changes in Government policies, and increase
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 5
in purchasing (especially of the upper middle class), improvement in life styles
inability of car finance. The passenger car industry was finally deregulated in 1993,
and many companies, both Indian and foreign (like Daewoo, General Motors, and
DaimlerChrysler), entered the market. However, the smooth sailing suddenly
disrupted in the last quarter of FY1996. The automobile industry, which
contributed substantially to industrial growth in FY 1996, failed to maintain
the same momentum between FY1997 and FY1999. The overall slowdown in the
economy and the resultant slowdown in industrial production, political
uncertainty and inadequate infrastructure development were some of the factors
responsible for the slowdown experienced by the automobile industry. In
FY2000, the sector experienced a turnaround, posted positive growth rates
and witnessed the launch of many new models. But the spectacular growth
in FY2000 was followed by a decline in FY2001 and only a marginal growth
of 0.5% in FY 2002. However, since FY2003, industry sales have increased
at a 3-year. CAGR of 1+-7.4% to 1.14 million in FY2006. Although there was
a slowdown in FY2006, after the high growth in FY2004-05, the recent high
growth has been on the strength of an increase in the disposable income of
middle-income salaried people, release of pent-up demand, and easy
availability of credit.

POJECT METOHODOLOGY
DEMAND CHARACTERSTICS
Passenger Cars: In developed markets, engine capacity and wheel-base are
the bases of segmentation of passenger cars: price does playa role but only up to a
point. Since affordability is the most important demand driver in India, the
domestic car market had until now been segment on the basis of vehicle price.
Price-based competition takes place in a continuum rather than in segments since
nearly all the models are launched in multiple versions at different price points.
As a result, a higher-end variant may compete with a lower – end variant of a car
in a segment above it.
MUVs: The MUV segment consists of vehicles that are suited to both rural and
urban areas. In rural areas where the roads are usually bad, these vehicles are
used as goods carriers and also for public transportation. Northern and Western
India account for nearly two-thirds of the demand for MUV. Specifically, in
States like Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra, the
demand for MUVs the largest. There are three segments of buyers for MUVs: the
private Government, and the Defense. Until the 1990s, the Government and
segments accounted for the largest share of the market. The reduction in
Government and defense spending since the 1990s has substantially reduced sales
two segments. This has pushed private sector purchases into greater prominence.
The project is on the topic "marketing and promotion Strategy of Adishakti

Company Profile:-
INTRODUCTION TO TATA MOTORS
Tata Motors Limited is India's largest automobile company, with
consolidated revenues of Rs.70,938.85 crores (USD 14 billion) in 2008-09. It is
the leader in commercial vehicles in each segment, and among the top three in
passenger vehicles with winning products in the compact, midsize car and utility
vehicle segments.
The company is the world's fourth largest truck manufacturer, and the
world's second largest bus manufacturer.
The company's 24,000 employees are guided by the vision to be "best in the
manner in which we operate best in the products we deliver and best in our value
system and ethics." Established in 1945, Tata Motors' presence indeed cuts across
the length and breadth of India. Over 4 million Tata vehicles ply on Indian roads,
since the first rolled out in 1954. The company's
manufacturing base in India is spread across Jamshedpur (Jharkhand), Pune
(Maharashtra), Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh), Pantnagar (Uttarakhand) and Dharwad
(Karnataka). Following a strategic alliance with Fiat in 2005, it has set up an
industrial joint venture with Fiat Group Automobiles at Ranjangaon
(Maharashtra) to produce both Fiat and Tata cars and Fiat powertrains. The
company is establishing a new plant at Sanand (Gujarat).
The company's dealership, sales, services and spare parts network
comprises over 3500 touch points; Tata Motors also distributes and markets Fiat
branded cars in India.
Tata Motors, the first company from India's engineering sector to be listed
in the New York Stock Exchange (September 2004), has also emerged as an
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 11
international automobile company. Through subsidiaries and associate
companies, Tata Motors has operations in the UK, South Korea, Thailand and
Spain. Among them is Jaguar Land Rover, a business comprising the two iconic
British brands that was acquired in 2008. In 2004, it acquired the Daewoo
Commercial Vehicles Company, South Korea's second largest truck maker. The
rechristened Tata Daewoo Commercial Vehicles Company has launched several
new products in the Korean market, while also exporting these products to
several international markets. Today two-thirds of heavy commercial vehicle
exports out of South Korea are from Tata Daewoo. In 2005, Tata Motors acquired
a 21% stake in Hispano Carrocera, a reputed Spanish bus and coach
manufacturer, and subsequently the remaining stake in 2009. Hispano's presence
is being expanded in other markets.
In 2006, Tata Motors formed a joint venture with the Brazil-based
Marcopolo, a global leader in body-building for buses and coaches to
manufacture fully-built buses and coaches for India and select international
markets. In 2006, Tata Motors entered into joint venture with Thonburi
Automotive Assembly Plant Company of Thailand to manufacture and market the
company's pickup vehicles in Thailand. The new plant of Tata Motors (Thailand)
has begun production of the Xenon pickup truck, with the Xenon having been
launched in Thailand in 2008.
Tata Motors is also expanding its international footprint, established
through exports since 1961. The company's commercial and passenger vehicles
are already being marketed in several countries in Europe, Africa, the Middle
East, South East Asia, South Asia and South America. It has franchisee/joint
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 12
venture assembly operations in Kenya, Bangladesh, Ukraine, Russia, Senegal and
South Africa.
The foundation of the company's growth over the last 50 years is a deep
understanding of economic stimuli and customer needs, and the ability to
translate them into customer-desired offerings through leading edge R&D. With
over 3,000 engineers and scientists, the company's Engineering Research Centre,
established in 1966, has enabled pioneering technologies and products. The
company today has R&D centers in Pune, Jamshedpur, Lucknow, Dharwad in
India, and in South Korea, Spain, and the UK. It was Tata Motors, which
developed the first indigenously developed Light Commercial Vehicle, India's
first Sports Utility Vehicle and, in 1998, the Tata Indica, India's first fully
indigenous passenger car.
Within two years of launch, Tata Indica became India's largest selling car in
its segment.
In 2005, Tata Motors created a new segment by launching the Tata Ace,
India's first indigenously developed mini-truck. In January 2008, Tata Motors
unveiled its People's Car, the Tata Nano, which India and the world have been
looking forward to.
The Tata Nano has been subsequently launched, as planned, in India in
March 2009. A development, which signifies a first for the global automobile
industry, the Nano brings the comfort and safety of a car within the reach of
thousands of families. The standard version has been priced at Rs.100000
(excluding VAT and transportation cost).
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 13
Designed with a family in mind, it has a roomy passenger compartment
with generous leg space and head room. It can comfortably seat four persons. Its
mono-volume design will set a new benchmark among small cars. Its safety
performance exceeds regulatory requirements in India. Its tailpipe emission
performance too exceeds regulatory requirements. In terms of overall pollutants,
it has a lower pollution level than two-wheelers being manufactured in India
today. The lean design strategy has helped minimize weight, which helps
maximize performance per unit of energy consumed and delivers high fuel
efficiency. The high fuel efficiency also ensures that the car has low carbon
dioxide emissions, thereby providing the twin benefits of an affordable
transportation solution with a low carbon footprint.
In May 2009, Tata Motors introduced ushered in a new era in the Indian
automobile industry, in keeping with its pioneering tradition, by unveiling its new
range of world standard trucks called Prima. In their power, speed, carrying
capacity, operating economy and trims, they will introduce new benchmarks in
India and match the best in the world in performance at a lower lifecycle cost.
Tata Motors is committed to improving the quality of life of communities
by working on four thrust areas – employability, education, health and
environment. The activities touch the lives of more than a million citizens. The
company's support on education and employability is focused on youth and
women. They range from schools to technical education institutes to actual
facilitation of income generation. In health, our intervention is in both preventive
and curative health care.
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 14
The goal of environment protection is achieved through tree plantation,
conserving water and creating new water bodies and, last but not the least, by
introducing appropriate technologies in our vehicles and operations for constantly
enhancing environment care. With the foundation of its rich heritage, Tata
Motors today is etching a refulgent future.
HISTORY
Tata Motors launches its first truck in collaboration with Mercedes-Benz Tata
Motors is a part of the Tata Group manages its shareholding through Tata Sons.
The company was established in 1935 as a locomotive manufacturing unit and
later expanded its operations to commercial vehicle sector in 1954 after forming a
joint venture with Daimler-Benz AG of Germany. Despite the success of its
commercial vehicles, Tata realized his company had to diversify and he began to
look at other products. Based on consumer demand, he decided that building a
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 15
small car would be the most practical new venture. So in 1998 it launched Tata
Indica, India's first fully indigenous passenger car.
Designed to be inexpensive and simple to build and maintain, the Indica became
a hit in the Indian market. It was also exported to Europe, especially the UK and
Italy. In 2004 it acquired Tata Daewoo Commercial Vehicle, and in late 2005 it
acquired 21% of Aragonese Hispano Carrocera giving it controlling rights of the
company. It has formed a Joint Venture with Marcopolo of Brazil, and introduced
low-floor buses in the Indian Market.

Sumo Grande MK II (2010)
`It is an upgraded version of Sumo Grande. The Grande MK II seeks to
deliver added value to customers through substantial changes in the exteriors and
interiors combined with improvements in drivability, ride and handling and
comfort. The exteriors have been accentuated by a new chrome lined grill, side
rub rails with chrome inserts and indicators on ORVMs. The interiors have been
refreshed to give the vehicle a completely new, contemporary look with a two
tone theme complemented by a new faux wood centre console and new fabric
upholstery.The changed drive ratio in the Grande MK II gives a boost to low
speed performance in city driving conditions. While a modified suspension

The Tata Indica is a hatchback automobile range manufactured by Tata
Motors of India. It is the first passenger car from Tata Motors and is also
considered India's first indigenously developed passenger car. As of August 2008,
more than 910,000 Indicas were produced, and the platform had spawned off
close to 1.2 million vehicles. The annual sales of Indica has been as high as
144,690 units in 2006-07. Current monthly sales of Indica is around 8000 units.
The models have also been exported to Europe, Africa and other countries since
late in 2004.
When first launched, the Indica prompted many complaints from early
purchasers, who claimed that the vehicle did not deliver horsepower and gas
mileage as promised. In response to the customer complaints, Tata Motors re-
engineered the internals of the car and launched it as Indica V2 (version 2), which
solved most of the complaints and emerged as one of the most sought after cars in
the Indian automobile industry. Later, it was again updated, now marketed as the
"Refreshingly New Indica V2". This was followed by the next variant of Indica,
current in early 2008, called the Indica V2 Xeta Petrol, which delivers 70 PS
(51 kW; 69 hp) of power at a fuel efficiency of 14 km/l (about 33 mpg U.S., fuel
consumption of 7.1 L/100 km) under standard test conditions. In Indian city
conditions, fuel economy can drop to about 10 km/l (about 23.5 mpg U.S., 10

L/100 km). Since the V1 and V2 which were visually identical, Tata had applied
styling updates to the Indica in 2004 and 2007.
In India, three versions were available with different trim levels.
Indica V2 — 1.4 L diesel (naturally aspirated engine in the DLE and DLS;
turbocharged option in the DLS; turbocharged and intercooled DLG and DLX;
DiCOR engine offered in the DLS and DLG);

MARKETING STRATEGY
MARKETING:
Marketing is an important activity in a society. Marketing had its origin in
the fact man is a creature of need and wants. Needs and wants create a state of
discomfort in persons which is resolved through acquiring products to satisfy
these needs and wants, These products is obtained in several ways, self-
production, coercion, supplication and exchange. Most human, society works on
the particular products and trades them for the other things they need. A
market is an area for potential exchange. These are need markets, demographic
markets. Marketing encompose all those activities is trying to actualize potential
exchanges.
According to Peter Drucker, he thinks that marketing first arose in the 17th
century in Japan, not in the west and it didn’t appear there until the middle of
the nineteenth century. As marketing was triggered by any fire circumstances
like a decline in sales, a slow growth, changing buying patterns, increasing
competition and also increasing sales expenditure.

TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 56
the term has a wider meaning of the practice and science of trading.
The American Marketing Association (AMA) states, "Marketing is an
organizational function and a set of processes for creating,
communicating and delivering value to customers and for managing
customer relationships in ways that benefit the organization and its
stakeholders."
Marketing practice tends to be seen as a creative industry, which
includes advertising, distribution and selling. It is also concerned
with anticipating the customers' future needs and wants, which are
often discovered through market research.
The scientific study of marketing is a wide and heavily
interconnected subject with extensive academic publications.
Marketing methods are also informed by many of the social sciences,
particularly psychology, sociology, and economics. Anthropology is
also a small, but growing influence. Market research underpins these
activities. Through advertising, it is also related to many of the
creative arts. The marketing literature is also infamous for re-
inventing itself and its vocabulary according to the times and the
culture.
Marketing is an economic process by means of which goods and
services are exchanged and there values are determined in terms of
money. It is the some total of all activities, which are related to the
flow of goods from the point of origin to the point of consumption or use.
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 57
It can be defined as exchange in goods and services satisfying those activities,
which human wants it is also a skill of selecting and fulfilling consumer desire in
such a way that certain amount of money put in brings back maximum returns.
Definition of marketing management:
Philip Kotler and Grey Armstrong define Marketing management as "The
analysis, Planning, Implementation and control of programs of designed to create,
build and maintain beneficial exchange with target buyers for the purpose of
achieving organization objective"
In the words of C.L. Knight "Marketing embraces all efforts made in the
discovery of consumer actual and potential requirement for commodities and
services and the steps taken for securing their actual distribution.
MARKETING STRATEGIES
Market segmentation:
Dividing a market into distinct groups of buyers with different needs,
characteristics, or behavior that might require separates products or marketing
mixes.
Automobile companies are interested in subdividing or segmenting the
market, i.e., each segment can be a group of people with similar or homogeneous
demand and the enterprise can offer tailor made marketing mix for each market
segment or subdivision. A market segment is a meaningful buyer group having
similar wants. Market segmentation gives formal recognition to the fact that
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 58
wants land desires of customers are diverse and we can formulate specific market
offering to specific category or segment of the market so that supply will have co-
related with demand varies & complex buyer behavior is the root cause of the
market segmentation.

Marketing Mix
In the early 1960s, Professor Neil Borden at Harvard Business School
identified a number of company performance actions that can influence the
consumer decision to purchase goods or services. Borden suggested that all those
actions of the company represented a "Marketing Mix". Professor E. Jerome
McCarthy, also at the Harvard Business School in the early 1960s, suggested that
the Marketing Mix contained 4 elements: product, price, place and promotion.
Once you've identified your target market, the next step is to create the market
mix, which is a set of four elements: product, price, distribution, and promotion
.You have a lot of control over the elements in your marketing mix, but you have
very little control over environment in which you're operating.

Promotion Strategy
The fourth and final P is promotion. This is the communications strategy of
your plan. Here you'll plan not only the message you want to use, but also the
tools you'll use to spread it to the world. Your promotion section should actually
have six categories:
advertising
public relations and publicity
direct marketing
promotions and events
product/company marketing materials
premium items
sales force
Basically, it should cover every communication mode that would appeal to
your target market and help drive them to not only be aware of, but also to act on
your offer. This would also include other things like client/customer newsletters,
a company Web site, etc. It is in this section of your plan that you should make
certain you are following an Integrated Marketing Communications plan. This
means that each of these tools must follow the same rules and spread the same
message. Having separate PR groups and promotions groups and sales groups
makes the job very difficult unless you make sure they are all in agreement about
what you are saying and how you are saying it.
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 70
promotion- push and pull strategies
"Push or Pull"?
Marketing theory distinguishes between two main kinds of promotional
strategy - "push" and "pull".
Push
A ―push‖ promotional strategy makes use of a company's sales force and
trade promotion activities to create consumer demand for a product.
The producer promotes the product to wholesalers, the wholesalers promote
it to retailers, and the retailers promote it to consumers.
A good example of "push" selling is mobile phones, where the major
handset manufacturers such as Nokia promote their products via retailers such as
Carphone Warehouse. Personal selling and trade promotions are often the most
effective promotional tools for companies such as Nokia - for example offering
subsidies on the handsets to encourage retailers to sell higher volumes.
A "push" strategy tries to sell directly to the consumer, bypassing other
distribution channels (e.g. selling insurance or holidays directly). With this type
of strategy, consumer promotions and advertising are the most likely promotional
tools.
Pull
A ―pull‖ selling strategy is one that requires high spending on advertising
and consumer promotion to build up consumer demand for a product.
If the strategy is successful, consumers will ask their retailers for the
product, the retailers will ask the wholesalers, and the wholesalers will ask the
producers.
A good example of a pull is the heavy advertising and promotion of
children's’ toys – mainly on television. Consider the recent BBC promotional
campaign for its new pre-school programme – the Fimbles. Aimed at two to four-
year-olds, 130 episodes of Fimbles have been made and are featured everyday on
digital children's channel CBeebies and BBC2.
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 71
As part of the promotional campaign, the BBC has agreed a deal with toy
maker Fisher-Price to market products based on the show, which it hopes will
emulate the popularity of the Tweenies. Under the terms of the deal, Fisher-Price
will develop, manufacture and distribute a range of Fimbles products including
soft, plastic and electronic learning toys for the UK and Ireland.
In 2001, BBC Worldwide (the commercial division of the BBC) achieved
sales of £90m from its children's brands and properties last year. The demand
created from broadcasting of the Fimbles and a major advertising campaign is
likely to ―pull‖ demand from children and encourage retailers to stock Fimbles
toys in the stores for Christmas 2002.
Promotion:
Promotion involves disseminating information about a product line, brand
or company it is one of the four key aspects of marketing mix.
Promotion refers to marketing activities used to communication positive,
persuasive information about an organization, its products and activities to
directly expedite exchanges in a target market. It includes a variety of techniques,
including advertising, sales promotion, public relation, and personal selling, that
are used to communicate with customer.
This-includes advertising, sales promotion, publicity, and personal selling,
branding and refers to the various methods of promoting the product, brand, or
company.
Promotion is generally sub-divided into two parts:
Above the line promotion: Promotion in the media (e.g. TV, radio,
newspapers, Internet and Mobile Phones) in which the advertiser pays an
advertising agency to place the ad
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 72
Below the line promotion: All other promotion. Much of this is intended to
be subtle enough that the consumer is unaware that promotion is taking place.
E.g. sponsorship, product placement, endorsements, sales promotion,
merchandising, direct mail, personal selling, public relations, trade shows
The specification of these four variables creates a promotional mix or
promotional plan. A promotional mix specifies how much attention to pay to each
of the four subcategories, and how much money to budget for each. A
promotional plan can have a wide range of objectives, including: sales increases,
new product acceptance, creation of brand equity, positioning, competitive
retaliations, or creation of a corporate image.
Road Shows & Banner: The Company plans to stage road shows, to display
vehicles in the pavilions during various college festivals and exhibition. This car
will appeal to youngsters more.
Television advertisements : Advertisements to promote and market our product
will be shown on local television channels. Major news and sports magazines will
promote and they will reach out to the youth will be promoted through local
channels, and pamphlets etc as it has more viewers.
Radio: Radio is the medium with the widest coverage. Studies have recently
shown high levels of exposure to radio broadcasting both within urban and rural
areas, whether or not listeners actually own a set. Many people listen to other
people's radios or hear them in public places. So radio announcements will be
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 73
made and advertisements will be announced on the radio about the product
features and price, qualities, etc.
Print Ads: Daily advertisements in leading newspapers and magazines will be
used to promote the product. Leaflets at the initial stage will be distributed at
railway stations, malls, college areas and various other locations. Workshops and
Seminars.

have arrived. Hence the population is increasing in Shimoga city day by day. This
leads to high demands for cars. TATA cars come with the attractive special
features which suits the needs of present demand.
Advertisements are essential but the means of channel keeps on changing.
Nowadays it is advisable to use TV as a medium for Advertisements. It is
predicted that after few years Internet may take place of TV. Hence it is necessary
to be updated with the human taste depending upon the demography. But the best
medium of advertising which will always exist is word of mouth publicity or in
other words recommendation. Hence it is very important to satisfy the customers.
If customers are satisfied with the quality and service provided by the Co, then
these customers will recommend to their friends and hence company will get
more customers.

It seems like every few months, we get wind of another vehicle that is
supposed to be powered by compressed air. The Mini Cat Air Car, from India-
based Tata Motors, seems almost too good to be true. Tata Motors is India’s
largest automobile company. It is the leader in commercial vehicles, and among
the top three in passenger vehicles.
Designed by an ex-IndyCar™ engineer, the Mini Cat utilizes compressed
air to move its motors’ pistons, claims zero tailpipe emissions, and an extremely
low cost to run. Is it the real deal, or a lot of hot air?
Compressed-air has been used to power a wide variety of vehicles since the
1800s with only limited success, due to inherent inefficiencies. The concept
found some limited success in powering locomotives, mostly used for mining,
where a combustion-free energy source was desirable. Ultimately, even these
were replaced by more efficient electric motors.
Several modern companies have attempted to produce a working
compressed-air powered car, but none have yet to reach the consumer market.
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 82
Energine Corporation, of Korea, claimed
that it was going to deliver a hybrid compressed-air/electric car, only to see its
CEO arrested for making exaggerated claims.
K’Airmobiles, a French company, were another compressed air concept, but
it never saw the light of day. The company was unable to procure the necessary
funding, and the engineers who worked on the project, ultimately admitted that
the inherent efficiency and low-running-temperature problems made the project
unfeasible.
In 2010, Honda showed off the Honda Air concept car, a 1,000-pound, 4-
passenger car, made out of composite materials. (While the concept sounds good,
in theory, I would hazard a guess that the high price of the composite materials
used in this car would make it unable to compete with other alternatively-fueld
vehicles.)
The TaTa Air Car concept engine was developed by Motor Development
International (―MDI‖), of France, with the backing of Tata. (This version of a
compressed air engine has been in development for over 20 years.) Zero Pollution
Motors holds a license to produce the cars in the U.S. market.
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 83
However, this version of an air-powered car has also been beset with
problems.
In 2008, Popular Mechanics wrote, ―Zero Pollution Motors confirmed to
PopularMechanics.com on Thursday that it expects to produce the world’s first
air-powered car for the United States by late 2009 or early 2010.‖
Although there are several blogs, and news outlets, which still refer to Zero
Pollution Motors as the holder of the U.S. license to produce MDI’s Air Cars, I
was unable to uncover any evidence that the company is still in existence, at least
in any substantial form.
In 2009, Tata Motors’ vice-president (engineering systems) S. Ravishankar
told DNA Money the project is facing difficulties in terms of vehicle range and
cooling. Ravishankar said, ―Air is not a fuel, it is just an energy carrier. So a tank
full of air does not have the same energy as a tank full of CNG. Any vehicle
using only compressed air to run would face problems of range.‖
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 84
The article continues: ―Ravishankar…went on to say that excessively low
engine temperature is another problem, in a vehicle using only compressed gas as
fuel.‖
In April of this year, InAutoNews.com explained that the cars, intended for
the U.S. market, would not be entirely emissions-free, because a small gasoline
engine was required, to allow the car to run at city speeds. (Perhaps this was the
reason, for the long delay, in bringing the air car to market? Perhaps the designers
were attempting to figure out a way to make the One Cat run on compressed air,
only?)
In December of 2009, UC Berkeley, ICF International and Stanford experts
had this to say about the feasibility of compressed air versus chemical fuels, as an
energy storage medium: ―The study concluded that even under highly optimistic
assumptions the compressed air car is less efficient than a battery electric vehicle
and produces more greenhouse gas emissions than a conventional gas powered
car with a coal intensive power mix. It did state however, that a pneumatic
combustion hybrid is feasible and inexpensive and could compete with hybrid
electric vehicles.
So, it would appear that the jury is not entirely out on the feasibility of a
compressed air powered car, but it certainly does not look good for the Tata/MDI
version.
But let’s assume that the Mini Cat Air Car really does live up to the claims
of the manufacturer. Just how environmentally-friendly is a compressed air car,
anyway?
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 85
In 2009, that’s exactly what Popular Mechanics endeavored to find out.
They compared the Zero Pollution Motors AirPod (an extremely strange-looking
precursor to the Mini Cat), to electric, gas, hybrid and diesel. The numbers
include the CO2 produced, by the generation of any required electricity. The
results were interesting:
Zero Pollution Motors AirPod: ―24.014 pounds CO2 for 100 miles‖
Tesla Roadster: ―32.98 pounds of CO2 for 100 miles‖
2010 Toyota Prius: ―39.192 pound of CO2 for 100 miles‖
2009 Honda Civic (non-hybrid): ―64.67 pounds of CO2 for 100 miles‖
2009 VW Jetta TDI Diesel: ―62.5 pound of CO2 for 100 miles‖
So, from a strictly empirical analysis, it would appear that air cars (if they
were feasible) would have a bit of an edge where pollution is concerned. Of
course, air cars would still not have the speeds necessary to allow them to be
driven on highways.
Being an eternal optimist, I still hold out hope that Tata isn’t just ―blowing
smoke.‖ I’m not going to hold my breath, though.
TATA MOTORS 2012

FINDINGS:
The company targets high level of income people because company
produces luxury and semi luxury cars.
The products match with the price and quality.
The consumers purchase the cars sue to the reputation of the company
rather than price of the car.
INDICA and 1 10th
are leading products of the company. It’s highly sold car
compared to other products of the company.
Maintenance free cars, because of high technology the maintenance of cars
less compared to other company.
The company gives importance to high level of customer satisfaction by
providing luxury quality of the car.
The company is prompt and timely delivery of products to the customers.
SUGGESTIONS:
The cost of NANO cars starts at the rate of 1,00,000 here it is different for
the low class people to buy it so the company should produce the cars by taking
in to consideration about the lower cost.
The service cost is high compared to the local groups hence the company
should fix a reasonable price.
The company should provide extra benefit such as discount to those people
so as to attract them towards the company.
TATA MOTORS 2012
Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 87
The company should take measures to cut down an expense other than the
cost of production.
The company should give more importance towards increasing the mileage
of the car due to increase in the rate of fuel.
CONCLUSION:
Today automobile industry is booming. Especially TATA gets enough
number of customer and company earning better profit from last 5 years. In some
instance their product is not moving fast, However they modified their product
model and trying to have better profit. By glance one can conclude TATA Motors
enjoys the good position in the automobile market.
Automobiles have become an indispensable part of our lives, an extension
of the human body that provides as faster, cheaper and more convenient mobility
every passing day. Behind this betterment go the efforts of those in the industry,
in the form of improvement through technological research. What actually lie
behind this betterment of the automobiles are the opinions, requirements, likes
and dislikes of those who use these vehicles. These wheeled machines affect our
lives in ways more than one.
Numerous surveys and research are conducted throughout the world every
now and then to reveal one of the other aspects of automobiles, be it about the
pollution caused due to vehicle population in cities, or raising motor accidents
and causes and vehicular technology, alternative medicine so on.

Tatamotars main project (shetty)

  • 1. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 1 Introduction An automobile or motor car is a wheeled motor vehicle for transporting passengers; which also carries its own engine or motor. Most definitions of the term specify automobiles are designed to run primarily on roads, to have . seating for one to eight people, to typically have four wheels, and to be constructed principally for the transport of people rather than goods. Automobile comes via the French language, from the Greek auto [self] and mobiles [moving]; meaning a vehicle that moves itself, rather than being pulled or pushed separate animal or another vehicle. Although Nicolas-Joseph Cugnot is often credited with building the first self -propelled mechanical vehicle or automobile in about 1769.Richard Trevithick built and demonstrated his Puffing Devil road locomotive in 18 In 1892, German engineer Rudolf Diesel was granted a patent for a "New Rational Combustion Engine‖. In 1897 he built the first Diesel Engine. In 1895, Selden was granted a United States patent (U.S. Patent 549,160) for a two-stroke automobile engine. Steam, electric, and gasoline-powered autos competed for decades, with gasoline –internal combustion engines achieving dominance in the 1910s.01, the first truly successful steam-powered road vehicle. FUEL AND PROPULISION TECHNOLOGIES Most automobiles in use today are propelled by gasoline (also known as petrol) or diesel internal combustion engines, which are known to cause air pollution and are also blamed for contributing to climate change and global warming. Increasing costs of oil-based fuels, tightening environmental laws and
  • 2. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 2 restrictions on greenhouse gas emissions are propelling work on alternative power systems for automobiles. Efforts to improve or replace existing technologies include the development of hybrid vehicles, and electric and hydrogen vehicles which do not release pollution into the air. DIESEL (DIESEL ENGINE) Diesel-engine cars have been popular in Europe with the first models being introduced in the 1930s by Mercedes Benz and Citroen. The main benefit of diesel engines is a 50% fuel burn efficiency compared with 27%. GASOLINE (PETROL ENGINE) Gasoline engines have the advantage over diesel in being lighter and able to work higher rotational speeds and they are the usual choice for fitting in high- performance sports cars. Continuous development of gasoline engines for over a hundred years has produced improvements in efficiency and reduced pollution. BIOACOH QLS AND BIOGASOLINE Ethanol, other alcohol fuels (biobutanol) and biogasoline have widespread automotive fuel. Most alcohols have less energy per liter than gasoline and are usually blended with gasoline. ELECTRIC CARS The first electric cars were built around 1832, well before internal combustion powered cars appeared. For a period of time electrics were considered superior
  • 3. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 3 due to the silent nature of electric motors compared to the very loud noise of the gasoline engine. STEAM CARS Steam power, usually using an oil or gas heated boiler, was also in use until the 1930s but had the major disadvantage of being unable to power the car until boiler pressure was available. COST AND BENEFITS OF USAGE The costs of automobile usage, which may include the cost of: acquiring the vehicle, repairs, maintenance, fuel, depreciation, parking fees, tire replacement, taxes and insurance, are weighed against the cost of the alternatives, and the value of the benefits – perceived and real of vehicle usage. The benefits may include on – demand transportation, mobility, independence and convenience. "INDIAN AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY" Peter Drucker called the automobile industry as "the industry of industries". During the last few years, the production and management systems have been revolutionized in the automobile industry . One of the major changes in t h e industry has been the opening up and growth of several emerging markets. I n d i a is one of the most important emerging car economies in the world today. In 1991, the Government of India embarked on an ambitious structural adjustment programme aimed at economic liberalization, based on the pillars of Delicensing, decontrol, Deregulation and Devaluation. Post-liberalization, the Government of new automobile policy announced in June 1993 contained measures, such is deli
  • 4. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 4 censing, automatic approval for foreign holding of 51% in Indian companies abolition of phased manufacturing programme, reduction of excise duty to 40% and import duties of CKD to 50% and of CBU to 50% and of CBU to 110%, and commitment to indigenization schedules. The Government of India's new automobile policy two Korean companies. Toyota end Chrysler are also seeking to enter the country with suitable Indian partners. In addition, there are three existing Indian companies, Hindustan Motors, Premier Automobiles and Telco, and one Indo- Japanese venture, Maruti already in the passenger car market. Maruti is by far the biggest player with about 70% of the market share. As of April 1997, a total of 7 Automobile companies (Daewoo, Peugeot, Fiat, Ford, General Motors, Merc, Audi) have already started selling cars, while another 8 companies (Honda, Renault, VW, BMW, Toyota, Hyundai, Chrysler) have either begun operations in India or plan to start soon. Some Indian companies like Telco and Kinetic are also working on introducing small car models. THE INDIAN FOUR-WHEELER INDUSTRY The 4W industry in India has not quite matched up to the performance of nterparts in other parts of the world. The primary reason for this has been - pervasive regulatory atmosphere prevailing till the opening up of the industry in the mid-1990s. The various layers of legislative Acts sheltered the industry from external competition for a long time. Moreover, the industry was considered low- priority as cars were thought of as "unaffordable luxury". Initially in the post-liberalization period, the automotive sector, especially the passenger car segment, saw a boom. The buoyancy in the sector was derived primary from economic vibrancy, changes in Government policies, and increase
  • 5. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 5 in purchasing (especially of the upper middle class), improvement in life styles inability of car finance. The passenger car industry was finally deregulated in 1993, and many companies, both Indian and foreign (like Daewoo, General Motors, and DaimlerChrysler), entered the market. However, the smooth sailing suddenly disrupted in the last quarter of FY1996. The automobile industry, which contributed substantially to industrial growth in FY 1996, failed to maintain the same momentum between FY1997 and FY1999. The overall slowdown in the economy and the resultant slowdown in industrial production, political uncertainty and inadequate infrastructure development were some of the factors responsible for the slowdown experienced by the automobile industry. In FY2000, the sector experienced a turnaround, posted positive growth rates and witnessed the launch of many new models. But the spectacular growth in FY2000 was followed by a decline in FY2001 and only a marginal growth of 0.5% in FY 2002. However, since FY2003, industry sales have increased at a 3-year. CAGR of 1+-7.4% to 1.14 million in FY2006. Although there was a slowdown in FY2006, after the high growth in FY2004-05, the recent high growth has been on the strength of an increase in the disposable income of middle-income salaried people, release of pent-up demand, and easy availability of credit.
  • 6. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 6 POJECT METOHODOLOGY DEMAND CHARACTERSTICS Passenger Cars: In developed markets, engine capacity and wheel-base are the bases of segmentation of passenger cars: price does playa role but only up to a point. Since affordability is the most important demand driver in India, the domestic car market had until now been segment on the basis of vehicle price. Price-based competition takes place in a continuum rather than in segments since nearly all the models are launched in multiple versions at different price points. As a result, a higher-end variant may compete with a lower – end variant of a car in a segment above it. MUVs: The MUV segment consists of vehicles that are suited to both rural and urban areas. In rural areas where the roads are usually bad, these vehicles are used as goods carriers and also for public transportation. Northern and Western India account for nearly two-thirds of the demand for MUV. Specifically, in States like Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra, the demand for MUVs the largest. There are three segments of buyers for MUVs: the private Government, and the Defense. Until the 1990s, the Government and segments accounted for the largest share of the market. The reduction in Government and defense spending since the 1990s has substantially reduced sales two segments. This has pushed private sector purchases into greater prominence. The project is on the topic "marketing and promotion Strategy of Adishakti motors which is situated in Shimoga. The study also gives a bird's eye view of the Adishakti motors.
  • 7. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 7 At the beginning this plan is general and tentative. It undergoes many modifications land changes, as the study progresses and insights into it deepen. Objectives of the study: To reveal the History of automobile industry. To understand about the company dealer. To know the special features of TATA Motors. To know the current position of demand for TATA Cars in Shimoga. To find the marketing and sales promotion activity done by the dealer to increase sales. To make out the importance of customer relation towards the company. Methodology:- Data collected from the dealer was with the help of observation method and the information collected from the staff and higher authority is through primary and secondary sources of information in order to prepare the report. The study of project work is based on primary and secondary data: Primary Data: Primary data was collected through observation and direct communication with the respondents through personal interview.
  • 8. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 8 Observation is a method that can be followed right on the job. The analyst observes the incumbent as he performs his work and questions him to get the required data. Secondary Data: Secondary data refers to the data, which has already been collected by someone, else, which has already passed through the statistical, analysis. In my field study I have collected the secondary information from different sources. The main sources consisted of Broachers of the cars and customer survey done by the dealer textbooks of the marketing, Internet etc. Broacher informs the customers about the photo, features & specification of cars. It also acts a medium of advertisement for the cars. Textbooks contain the necessary information regarding a particular topic related to the subject. Internet has made a way to provide multimedia information to the people. Internet has rapidly becoming the mechanism for connecting organization and individual throughout the world. Scope of the study:- The scope of the study is limited to Adishakthi Motors Shimoga and its operations. This provides a scope and directions to undertake detail study on the level of firm’s operation.

  • 11. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 11 international automobile company. Through subsidiaries and associate companies, Tata Motors has operations in the UK, South Korea, Thailand and Spain. Among them is Jaguar Land Rover, a business comprising the two iconic British brands that was acquired in 2008. In 2004, it acquired the Daewoo Commercial Vehicles Company, South Korea's second largest truck maker. The rechristened Tata Daewoo Commercial Vehicles Company has launched several new products in the Korean market, while also exporting these products to several international markets. Today two-thirds of heavy commercial vehicle exports out of South Korea are from Tata Daewoo. In 2005, Tata Motors acquired a 21% stake in Hispano Carrocera, a reputed Spanish bus and coach manufacturer, and subsequently the remaining stake in 2009. Hispano's presence is being expanded in other markets. In 2006, Tata Motors formed a joint venture with the Brazil-based Marcopolo, a global leader in body-building for buses and coaches to manufacture fully-built buses and coaches for India and select international markets. In 2006, Tata Motors entered into joint venture with Thonburi Automotive Assembly Plant Company of Thailand to manufacture and market the company's pickup vehicles in Thailand. The new plant of Tata Motors (Thailand) has begun production of the Xenon pickup truck, with the Xenon having been launched in Thailand in 2008. Tata Motors is also expanding its international footprint, established through exports since 1961. The company's commercial and passenger vehicles are already being marketed in several countries in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, South East Asia, South Asia and South America. It has franchisee/joint
  • 12. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 12 venture assembly operations in Kenya, Bangladesh, Ukraine, Russia, Senegal and South Africa. The foundation of the company's growth over the last 50 years is a deep understanding of economic stimuli and customer needs, and the ability to translate them into customer-desired offerings through leading edge R&D. With over 3,000 engineers and scientists, the company's Engineering Research Centre, established in 1966, has enabled pioneering technologies and products. The company today has R&D centers in Pune, Jamshedpur, Lucknow, Dharwad in India, and in South Korea, Spain, and the UK. It was Tata Motors, which developed the first indigenously developed Light Commercial Vehicle, India's first Sports Utility Vehicle and, in 1998, the Tata Indica, India's first fully indigenous passenger car. Within two years of launch, Tata Indica became India's largest selling car in its segment. In 2005, Tata Motors created a new segment by launching the Tata Ace, India's first indigenously developed mini-truck. In January 2008, Tata Motors unveiled its People's Car, the Tata Nano, which India and the world have been looking forward to. The Tata Nano has been subsequently launched, as planned, in India in March 2009. A development, which signifies a first for the global automobile industry, the Nano brings the comfort and safety of a car within the reach of thousands of families. The standard version has been priced at Rs.100000 (excluding VAT and transportation cost).
  • 13. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 13 Designed with a family in mind, it has a roomy passenger compartment with generous leg space and head room. It can comfortably seat four persons. Its mono-volume design will set a new benchmark among small cars. Its safety performance exceeds regulatory requirements in India. Its tailpipe emission performance too exceeds regulatory requirements. In terms of overall pollutants, it has a lower pollution level than two-wheelers being manufactured in India today. The lean design strategy has helped minimize weight, which helps maximize performance per unit of energy consumed and delivers high fuel efficiency. The high fuel efficiency also ensures that the car has low carbon dioxide emissions, thereby providing the twin benefits of an affordable transportation solution with a low carbon footprint. In May 2009, Tata Motors introduced ushered in a new era in the Indian automobile industry, in keeping with its pioneering tradition, by unveiling its new range of world standard trucks called Prima. In their power, speed, carrying capacity, operating economy and trims, they will introduce new benchmarks in India and match the best in the world in performance at a lower lifecycle cost. Tata Motors is committed to improving the quality of life of communities by working on four thrust areas – employability, education, health and environment. The activities touch the lives of more than a million citizens. The company's support on education and employability is focused on youth and women. They range from schools to technical education institutes to actual facilitation of income generation. In health, our intervention is in both preventive and curative health care.
  • 14. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 14 The goal of environment protection is achieved through tree plantation, conserving water and creating new water bodies and, last but not the least, by introducing appropriate technologies in our vehicles and operations for constantly enhancing environment care. With the foundation of its rich heritage, Tata Motors today is etching a refulgent future. HISTORY Tata Motors launches its first truck in collaboration with Mercedes-Benz Tata Motors is a part of the Tata Group manages its shareholding through Tata Sons. The company was established in 1935 as a locomotive manufacturing unit and later expanded its operations to commercial vehicle sector in 1954 after forming a joint venture with Daimler-Benz AG of Germany. Despite the success of its commercial vehicles, Tata realized his company had to diversify and he began to look at other products. Based on consumer demand, he decided that building a
  • 15. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 15 small car would be the most practical new venture. So in 1998 it launched Tata Indica, India's first fully indigenous passenger car. Designed to be inexpensive and simple to build and maintain, the Indica became a hit in the Indian market. It was also exported to Europe, especially the UK and Italy. In 2004 it acquired Tata Daewoo Commercial Vehicle, and in late 2005 it acquired 21% of Aragonese Hispano Carrocera giving it controlling rights of the company.

Current monthly sales of Indica is around 8000 units. The models have also been exported to Europe, Africa and other countries since late in 2004. When first launched, the Indica prompted many complaints from early purchasers, who claimed that the vehicle did not deliver horsepower and gas mileage as promised. In response to the customer complaints, Tata Motors re- engineered the internals of the car and launched it as Indica V2 (version 2), which solved most of the complaints and emerged as one of the most sought after cars in the Indian automobile industry.

Borden suggested that all those actions of the company represented a "Marketing Mix". Professor E. Jerome McCarthy, also at the Harvard Business School in the early 1960s, suggested that the Marketing Mix contained 4 elements: product, price, place and promotion. Once you've identified your target market, the next step is to create the market mix, which is a set of four elements: product, price, distribution, and promotion .You have a lot of control over the elements in your marketing mix, but you have very little control over environment in which you're operating.

Your promotion section should actually have six categories: advertising public relations and publicity direct marketing promotions and events product/company marketing materials premium items sales force Basically, it should cover every communication mode that would appeal to your target market and help drive them to not only be aware of, but also to act on your offer. This would also include other things like client/customer newsletters, a company Web site, etc. It is in this section of your plan that you should make certain you are following an Integrated Marketing Communications plan. This means that each of these tools must follow the same rules and spread the same message. Having separate PR groups and promotions groups and sales groups makes the job very difficult unless you make sure they are all in agreement about what you are saying and how you are saying it.
  • 70. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 70 promotion- push and pull strategies "Push or Pull"? Marketing theory distinguishes between two main kinds of promotional strategy - "push" and "pull". Push A ―push‖ promotional strategy makes use of a company's sales force and trade promotion activities to create consumer demand for a product. The producer promotes the product to wholesalers, the wholesalers promote it to retailers, and the retailers promote it to consumers. A good example of "push" selling is mobile phones, where the major handset manufacturers such as Nokia promote their products via retailers such as Carphone Warehouse. Personal selling and trade promotions are often the most effective promotional tools for companies such as Nokia - for example offering subsidies on the handsets to encourage retailers to sell higher volumes. A "push" strategy tries to sell directly to the consumer, bypassing other distribution channels (e.g. selling insurance or holidays directly). With this type of strategy, consumer promotions and advertising are the most likely promotional tools. Pull A ―pull‖ selling strategy is one that requires high spending on advertising and consumer promotion to build up consumer demand for a product. If the strategy is successful, consumers will ask their retailers for the product, the retailers will ask the wholesalers, and the wholesalers will ask the producers. A good example of a pull is the heavy advertising and promotion of children's’ toys – mainly on television. Consider the recent BBC promotional campaign for its new pre-school programme – the Fimbles. Aimed at two to four- year-olds, 130 episodes of Fimbles have been made and are featured everyday on digital children's channel CBeebies and BBC2.
  • 71. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 71 As part of the promotional campaign, the BBC has agreed a deal with toy maker Fisher-Price to market products based on the show, which it hopes will emulate the popularity of the Tweenies. Under the terms of the deal, Fisher-Price will develop, manufacture and distribute a range of Fimbles products including soft, plastic and electronic learning toys for the UK and Ireland. In 2001, BBC Worldwide (the commercial division of the BBC) achieved sales of £90m from its children's brands and properties last year. The demand created from broadcasting of the Fimbles and a major advertising campaign is likely to ―pull‖ demand from children and encourage retailers to stock Fimbles toys in the stores for Christmas 2002. Promotion: Promotion involves disseminating information about a product line, brand or company it is one of the four key aspects of marketing mix. Promotion refers to marketing activities used to communication positive, persuasive information about an organization, its products and activities to directly expedite exchanges in a target market. It includes a variety of techniques, including advertising, sales promotion, public relation, and personal selling, that are used to communicate with customer. This-includes advertising, sales promotion, publicity, and personal selling, branding and refers to the various methods of promoting the product, brand, or company. Promotion is generally sub-divided into two parts: Above the line promotion: Promotion in the media (e.g. TV, radio, newspapers, Internet and Mobile Phones) in which the advertiser pays an advertising agency to place the ad
  • 72. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 72 Below the line promotion: All other promotion. Much of this is intended to be subtle enough that the consumer is unaware that promotion is taking place. E.g. sponsorship, product placement, endorsements, sales promotion, merchandising, direct mail, personal selling, public relations, trade shows The specification of these four variables creates a promotional mix or promotional plan. A promotional mix specifies how much attention to pay to each of the four subcategories, and how much money to budget for each. A promotional plan can have a wide range of objectives, including: sales increases, new product acceptance, creation of brand equity, positioning, competitive retaliations, or creation of a corporate image. Road Shows & Banner: The Company plans to stage road shows, to display vehicles in the pavilions during various college festivals and exhibition. This car will appeal to youngsters more.

  • 81. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 81 It seems like every few months, we get wind of another vehicle that is supposed to be powered by compressed air. The Mini Cat Air Car, from India- based Tata Motors, seems almost too good to be true. Tata Motors is India’s largest automobile company. It is the leader in commercial vehicles, and among the top three in passenger vehicles. Designed by an ex-IndyCar™ engineer, the Mini Cat utilizes compressed air to move its motors’ pistons, claims zero tailpipe emissions, and an extremely low cost to run. Is it the real deal, or a lot of hot air? Compressed-air has been used to power a wide variety of vehicles since the 1800s with only limited success, due to inherent inefficiencies. The concept found some limited success in powering locomotives, mostly used for mining, where a combustion-free energy source was desirable. Ultimately, even these were replaced by more efficient electric motors. Several modern companies have attempted to produce a working compressed-air powered car, but none have yet to reach the consumer market.
  • 82. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 82 Energine Corporation, of Korea, claimed that it was going to deliver a hybrid compressed-air/electric car, only to see its CEO arrested for making exaggerated claims. K’Airmobiles, a French company, were another compressed air concept, but it never saw the light of day. The company was unable to procure the necessary funding, and the engineers who worked on the project, ultimately admitted that the inherent efficiency and low-running-temperature problems made the project unfeasible. In 2010, Honda showed off the Honda Air concept car, a 1,000-pound, 4- passenger car, made out of composite materials. (While the concept sounds good, in theory, I would hazard a guess that the high price of the composite materials used in this car would make it unable to compete with other alternatively-fueld vehicles.) The TaTa Air Car concept engine was developed by Motor Development International (―MDI‖), of France, with the backing of Tata. (This version of a compressed air engine has been in development for over 20 years.) Zero Pollution Motors holds a license to produce the cars in the U.S. market.
  • 83. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 83 However, this version of an air-powered car has also been beset with problems. In 2008, Popular Mechanics wrote, ―Zero Pollution Motors confirmed to PopularMechanics.com on Thursday that it expects to produce the world’s first air-powered car for the United States by late 2009 or early 2010.‖ Although there are several blogs, and news outlets, which still refer to Zero Pollution Motors as the holder of the U.S. license to produce MDI’s Air Cars, I was unable to uncover any evidence that the company is still in existence, at least in any substantial form. In 2009, Tata Motors’ vice-president (engineering systems) S. Ravishankar told DNA Money the project is facing difficulties in terms of vehicle range and cooling. Ravishankar said, ―Air is not a fuel, it is just an energy carrier. So a tank full of air does not have the same energy as a tank full of CNG. Any vehicle using only compressed air to run would face problems of range.‖
  • 84. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 84 The article continues: ―Ravishankar…went on to say that excessively low engine temperature is another problem, in a vehicle using only compressed gas as fuel.‖ In April of this year, InAutoNews.com explained that the cars, intended for the U.S. market, would not be entirely emissions-free, because a small gasoline engine was required, to allow the car to run at city speeds. (Perhaps this was the reason, for the long delay, in bringing the air car to market? Perhaps the designers were attempting to figure out a way to make the One Cat run on compressed air, only?) In December of 2009, UC Berkeley, ICF International and Stanford experts had this to say about the feasibility of compressed air versus chemical fuels, as an energy storage medium: ―The study concluded that even under highly optimistic assumptions the compressed air car is less efficient than a battery electric vehicle and produces more greenhouse gas emissions than a conventional gas powered car with a coal intensive power mix. It did state however, that a pneumatic combustion hybrid is feasible and inexpensive and could compete with hybrid electric vehicles. So, it would appear that the jury is not entirely out on the feasibility of a compressed air powered car, but it certainly does not look good for the Tata/MDI version. But let’s assume that the Mini Cat Air Car really does live up to the claims of the manufacturer. Just how environmentally-friendly is a compressed air car, anyway?
  • 85. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 85 In 2009, that’s exactly what Popular Mechanics endeavored to find out. They compared the Zero Pollution Motors AirPod (an extremely strange-looking precursor to the Mini Cat), to electric, gas, hybrid and diesel. The numbers include the CO2 produced, by the generation of any required electricity. The results were interesting: Zero Pollution Motors AirPod: ―24.014 pounds CO2 for 100 miles‖ Tesla Roadster: ―32.98 pounds of CO2 for 100 miles‖ 2010 Toyota Prius: ―39.192 pound of CO2 for 100 miles‖ 2009 Honda Civic (non-hybrid): ―64.67 pounds of CO2 for 100 miles‖ 2009 VW Jetta TDI Diesel: ―62.5 pound of CO2 for 100 miles‖ So, from a strictly empirical analysis, it would appear that air cars (if they were feasible) would have a bit of an edge where pollution is concerned. Of course, air cars would still not have the speeds necessary to allow them to be driven on highways. Being an eternal optimist, I still hold out hope that Tata isn’t just ―blowing smoke.‖ I’m not going to hold my breath, though.
  • 86. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 86 FINDINGS: The company targets high level of income people because company produces luxury and semi luxury cars. The products match with the price and quality. The consumers purchase the cars sue to the reputation of the company rather than price of the car. INDICA and 1 10th are leading products of the company. It’s highly sold car compared to other products of the company. Maintenance free cars, because of high technology the maintenance of cars less compared to other company. The company gives importance to high level of customer satisfaction by providing luxury quality of the car. The company is prompt and timely delivery of products to the customers. SUGGESTIONS: The cost of NANO cars starts at the rate of 1,00,000 here it is different for the low class people to buy it so the company should produce the cars by taking in to consideration about the lower cost. The service cost is high compared to the local groups hence the company should fix a reasonable price. The company should provide extra benefit such as discount to those people so as to attract them towards the company.
  • 87. TATA MOTORS 2012 Alva’s College Moodbidri Page 87 The company should take measures to cut down an expense other than the cost of production. The company should give more importance towards increasing the mileage of the car due to increase in the rate of fuel. CONCLUSION: Today automobile industry is booming. Especially TATA gets enough number of customer and company earning better profit from last 5 years. In some instance their product is not moving fast, However they modified their product model and trying to have better profit. By glance one can conclude TATA Motors enjoys the good position in the automobile market. Automobiles have become an indispensable part of our lives, an extension of the human body that provides as faster, cheaper and more convenient mobility every passing day. Behind this betterment go the efforts of those in the industry, in the form of improvement through technological research. What actually lie behind this betterment of the automobiles are the opinions, requirements, likes and dislikes of those who use these vehicles. These wheeled machines affect our lives in ways more than one. Numerous surveys and research are conducted throughout the world every now and then to reveal one of the other aspects of automobiles, be it about the pollution caused due to vehicle population in cities, or raising motor accidents and causes and vehicular technology, alternative medicine so on.
