PREFACE

Marketing is a social process by which individuals, families, groups and other

organizations obtain what they need want by identifying value, providing it and exchanging

with others. The core concepts of marketing are needs and demands, market products and

services, values and satisfaction, exchange and communication. As well as today’s

customers are becoming harder to please. They are smarter, many more competitors with

equal or better offer approach more price conscious, more demanding, less forgiving, and

them. The challenge, according to Jeffrey Gitomer, is not to produce satisfied customers;

several competitors can do this. Today, competition is not only rife but growing more intense

every year. Companies like Reliance cannot every customer self. And due to this reason the

company takes help of Wholesalers & retailers. So that its product may reach to customer

easily. This project was been memorable experience and a great opportunity for me to

associate with such a high ranked mobile company of the INDIA “Reliance”. I am very

great full to the people by whom grace I got my project successfully completed knowing the

practical aspects of the marketing and acquainting my self with modern environment

management and sense of talking out ways to unknown.

CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION COMPANY PROFILE

About Sh. Dhirubhai heerachand Ambani (the founder of the company)

Few men in history have made as dramatic a contribution to their country’s economic fortunes as did the founder of Reliance, Sh. Dhirubhai H Ambani. Fewer still have left behind a legacy that is more enduring and timeless. As with all great pioneers, there is more than one unique way of describing the true genius of Dhirubhai: The corporate visionary, the unmatched strategist, the proud patriot, the leader of men, the architect of India’s capital markets, the champion of shareholder interest. But the role Dhirubhai cherished most was perhaps that of India’s greatest wealth creator. In one lifetime, he built, starting from the proverbial scratch, India’s largest private sector enterprise. When Dhirubhai embarked on his first business venture, he had a seed capital of barely US$ 300 (around Rs 14,000). Over the next three and a half decades, he converted this fledgling enterprise into a Rs 60,000 crore colossus—an achievement which earned Reliance a place on the global Fortune 500 list, the first ever Indian private company to do so. Dhirubhai is widely regarded as the father of India’s capital markets. In 1977, when Reliance Textile Industries Limited first went public, the Indian stock market was a place patronised by a small club of elite investors which dabbled in a handful of stocks. Undaunted, Dhirubhai managed to convince a large number of first-time retail investors to participate in the unfolding Reliance story and put their hard-earned money in the Reliance Textile IPO, promising them, in exchange for their trust, substantial return on their investments. It was to be the start of one of great stories of mutual respect and reciprocal gain in the Indian markets. Under Dhirubhai extraordinary vision and leadership, Reliance scripted one of the greatest growth stories in corporate history anywhere in the world, and went on to become India’s largest private sector enterprise. Through out this amazing journey, Dhirubhai always kept the interests of the ordinary shareholder uppermost in mind, in the process making millionaires out of many of the initial investors in the Reliance stock, and creating one of the world’s largest shareholder families.

The second son of a school teacher, Dhirubhai was born in 1932 in the village of Chorwad in Gujarat in circumstances that can best be described as modest. Driven by hardship and want,

Page | 9

P a g e | 10

he had to drop out of school early .In 1949, at the age of 17, he went to Aden (now Yemen) in search of opportunity, and worked as a dispatch clerk for A. Besse & Co. A couple of years later, the company became a distributor for Shell products and Dhirubhai was promoted to manage the company’s oil-filling station at the port of Aden. It was here that he dreamed of setting up and owning a refinery, which he later realized with his petrochemicals venture.He returned to Indiain 1958 to launch his first business venture, a spice trading company named Reliance Commercial Corporation.In 1962, Dhirubhai identified an emerging opportunity in yarn trading and shifted to the new business. Three years later, he changed the name of his company to Reliance Textile IndustriesLimited.In 1966, he purchased land in Naroda, Gujarat, to set up a textile mill. In 1975, a technical team from the World Bank recognised the Naroda mill as one of the best composite textile mills in India and certified it as ‘excellent even by developed country standards’.In 1977, the company went public.At the time of the Reliance Textiles IPO, participation in the Indian capital markets was largely limited to a small but influential elite which dabbled in a handful of stocks. The great majority ofIndia’s middle class chose to stay away. Dhirubhai’s decision to prefer the capital markets over banks as the primary source of funding for his ambitious expansion plans, was as daring as it was unprecedented.In the event, The Reliance IPO was an unlikely success. Against all odds, Dhirubhai managed to convince a sufficiently large number of sceptical middle class investors to put their money, and faith, in what was then a small, relatively unknown company.The subsequent growth and success of Reliance and its philosophy of generously rewarding shareholders rapidly gave Dhirubhai an iconic status in the Indian financial markets.Under Dhirubhai’s charismatic leadership, the Annual General Meetings (AGM) of Reliance took on the character of large public spectacles. Typically held in large public arenas, and attended by thousands of adoring shareholders, the Reliance AGM became a day to remember in the annual corporate calendar of India. In 1986, the Reliance AGM held in Cross Maidan, Mumbai, was attended by as many as 30,000 stockholders—a record in India’s corporate history.By the mid-80s, Dhirubhai had become something of a living legend, widely hailed by peers and critics alike as one of the greatest corporate visionaries in the history of post-Independent India.But Dhirubhai was never one to rest on his laurels. In the early 80s, he had taken the first important step in strategic backward integration for Reliance with the commissioning of the Patalganga plant which initially manufactured polyester filament yarn and polyester staple fibre.In 1991, he set up Reliance Hazira, for the manufacture of petrochemicals—the next link in the backward integration chain. At the time, Reliance Hazira represented the single largest investment made by a private sector group in India at a single location.Meanwhile, Dhirubhai had firmed up plans of setting up a massive grassroots refinery—the nextbig leap in his overall strategic roadmap for Reliance. Conceived as the world’s largest grassroots refinery at the time, Jamnagar in Gujarat was to have an annual capacity of 27 million tonnes.In the face of formidable challenges, including a massive cyclone that flattened the project sitemid-way through construction, Reliance commissioned the Jamnagar facility in 1999. It was a fully integrated refinery, complete with a dedicated port and a captive supply of power.The refinery was not only commissioned ahead of schedule, but

Page | 10

P a g e | 11

also set up at a cost that was significantly lower than the prevailing global benchmark for a project of such magnitude.It was one of Dhirubhai’s great dreams in life to see ordinary Indians enjoy the enormous economic benefits of being able to access affordable yet world class telecommunications infrastructure. He wanted Reliance to spearhead a communications revolution that would dramatically cut down the cost of connectivity, and propel India into the digital age. His ultimate ambition: To make the cost of a phone call cheaper than that of a post card. It was therefore entirely logical for Reliance to enter the telecommunications space when the sector was opened up for private participation in the 1990s.The rest, as they say, is history.Today, Reliance Communications is India’s largest information and communications services provider with over 20 million subscribers, and offers the full range of integrated telecom services—at prices that are, by far, the lowest anywhere in the world.Dhirubhai left for his heavenly abode on July 6, 2002.

The Dream, 1999"Make a phone call cheaper than a postcard and you will usher in a revolutionary transformation in the lives of millions of Indians" - Dhirubhai Ambani

The Reality, November 15 Reliance Infocomm begins Project Planning

A DREAM COMES TRUE :

The Late Dhirubhai Ambani dreamt of a digital India — an India where the common man would have access to affordable means of information and communication. Dhirubhai, who single-handedly built India’s largest private sector company virtually from scratch, had stated as early as 1999: “Make the tools of information and communication available to people at an affordable cost. They will overcome the handicaps of illiteracy and lack of mobility.” It was with this belief in mind that Reliance Communications (formerly Reliance Infocomm) started laying 60,000 route kilometres of a pan-India fibre optic backbone. This backbone was commissioned on 28 December 2002, the auspicious occasion of Dhirubhai’s 70th birthday, though sadly after his unexpected demise on 6 July 2002. Reliance Communications has a reliable, high-capacity, integrated (both wireless and wireline) and convergent (voice, data and video) digital network. It is capable of delivering a range of services spanning the entire infocomm (information and communication) value chain, including infrastructure and services — for enterprises as well as individuals, applications, and consulting. Today, Reliance Communications is revolutionizing the way India communicates and networks, truly bringing about a new way of life, relationship and help to develop these concepts. Together, these ideas can be converted into products and services that have great market potential.

VISION:

CONCEPT OF RELIANCE COMMUNICATION

Anil Ambani: Telecom person of the year 2007

His marketing strategy has made millions of Indians happy, they got the best mobile tariffs in the world-local call costs at 15 paise/minute, and STD call at 40 paise/minute NEW DELHI, INDIA: When the VOICE&DATA jury, comprising eminent professionals from the telecom field, met in Delhi in June to choose the Telecom Person of the Year 2007, the five-hour selection process was steamy. The reason was obvious: The telecom sector is growing faster than any other segment and naturally their CEOs have a lot to crow about. The jury had to select one from three CEOs, who had made it to the final list through nominations from the industry and the initial scrutiny. Among the three, one of the main contenders was a young CEO. The

Page | 28

P a g e | 29

jury decided that he should come back next year to try and win the coveted award. The list now had two names-both CEOs of two well-known companies. The pivotal difference between the two: one is an entrepreneur and the other is not so popular, as his credit is shared among a number of his big daddies. Following a five-hour closely held, hotly debated discussion, the name was announced: Anil Dhirubhai Ambani, chairman of Reliance Communications. Anil Ambani joined Reliance Industries (currently promoted by his brother Mukesh Ambani, following their split) in 1983 as co-chief executive officer. Forbes ranked him number 104 among the World's Richest People in 2006. The Ambani family faced criticism when it announced its ambitious plans to build a countrywide telecom network, as its prior expertise lay in commodities-textiles and petrochemicals-business only. Apart from that telecom needs a service-oriented mindset, critics felt. What they did not remember was how the family had served its millions of shareholders.

Policies in India are made in line with Ambani's vision, says an industry expert. His business acumen and closeness to politicians assisted him in making it to the Rajya Sabha in June 2004, as an independent member. Ambani chose to resign voluntarily on March 25, 2006. The same association with politicos gave him negative returns too when the Mayawati Government in Uttar Pradesh put a spanner on his ambitious plans to build a 1,200-acre SEZ. Media sees his aggression when he announces financial results for the Reliance ADA group of companies, and when he attends the annual general meetings and faces questions from shareholders. When he meets the press, he has answers to all their questions. He also remembers to call select journalists by name. To merchant bankers he, who has already contributed immensely to the financial reforms of the country, is one of the financial wizards of the world. May be because of his expertise, he gave up in the race to grab Hutchison Essar stake, after indirectly jacking up the valuation. His negotiations with the Qualcomm chief are also a folk theory now. How did Ambani become the VOICE&DATA Telecom Person of the Year 2007? What are his personal and organizational achievements in the recent past? His path-breaking marketing strategy that was put in by the strongest team of telecom professionals the country has ever seen has made millions of Indians happy as they got the best mobile tariffs in the world. The aggression resulted to adding to his already swollen kitty. Every hour India will be adding around 20,000 new mobile customers and Reliance Communications over 4,000. When mobile telephony first began in India, a local call cost Rs 16 per minute; an STD Rs 50; and a call to the US Rs 100 per minute. With Reliance Communication’s pioneering price initiative, a local call now costs a mere 15 paise per minute, STD 40 paise, and a call to the US costs less than Rs 2 per minute. The presence of Reliance Communications is making the competition in India panicky. Global telecom forces will also shortly start feeling the heat. Ambani has also recently announced his Rs 1,200 crore buyout of Yipes Holdings.

Achiever's Pride

Undertook financial restructuring of Reliance communications To spend Rs 16,000 crore to expand and strengthen network coverage

Page | 29

P a g e | 30

After expansion, Reliance Communications will have the single largest wireless network in the world Launched the lowest-cost classic brand handset at Rs 777 Subscriber base grew to over 28 mn during last fiscal, registering 60% growth Total Revenue shot up to Rs 14,468 crore, an increase of 34% Net Profit rises to Rs 3,163 crore, an increase of over 600% Revenues of the wireless business increased by 46% to Rs 10,728 crore Broadband achieved revenue growth of 123% to Rs 1,144 crore Market capitalization crossed Rs 100,000 crore Will add 23,000 more towers Telecom services will be available in over 23,000 towns and 600,000 villages Next generation DTH network has been launched end of the year .

Reliance Communications' wireless subscriber base grew to over 28 mn last fiscal, registering a 60% growth. This makes it one of the top two wireless operators in India."Economic growth in the future will be indexed to connectivity of millions of enterprise and individual customers. Over the next few years, we will have over 100 million customers, making us one of the top 5 telecom players in the world. In four years, we put up a total of 14,000 towers across the country. This year alone we will add 23,000 more towers. Our wireless network is currently available in 10,000 towns. By the end of this year, it will be available in over 23,000 towns and 600,000 villages," Anil Ambani said at the first annual general meeting of Reliance Communications since the re-organization of the Reliance Group in June 2005."In four years of operations, we invested around Rs 32,000 crore. This year alone we will invest over Rs 20,000 crore. At the end of this year, we will have covered over 90% of our population. If Version 1.0 of the Indian telecom story was all about affordability, Version 2.0 will be about reach. Our Network expansion will give us the power to drive the market and stay ahead of the curve," Ambani adds.According to Ambani, the financial restructuring of Reliance Communications is the biggest turnaround story in the history of corporate India. The inherited ownership structure of Reliance Communications was complex. The reorganization has yielded a simple, fair, and transparent ownership structure, and given Reliance Communications 100% ownership of all operational and associate companies.Reliance Communications is now among the three most valuable private sector companies in India, and the five most valuable telecom companies in Asia. In the current Fiscal, Reliance Communications will spend Rs 16,000 crore to further expand and strengthen its network coverage across India and the rest of the world.In addition to organic growth, Reliance Communications will leverage the advantages derived from this impressive financial platform to explore and pursue any significant Opportunities available in the telecommunications sector. "We are currently evaluating a number of inorganic opportunities in select international markets to further expand our footprint," Ambani said.Reliance Communication’s One India, One Tariff plan allowed millions to connect across India at just one rupee a minute. The company was the first one to break the Rs 1,000 entry-barrier with the launch of the lowest-cost classic brand handset at Rs 777.As per its expansion plan, Reliance Communications will have the single largest wireless

Page | 30

P a g e | 31

network in the world, covering over 900 mn Indians or more than 15% of the global population. It will cover 23,000 towns or every single Indian habitation with a population of over 1,000. Reliance Communications will cover almost 100% of all rail routes, providing seamless voice, video, radio, and Internet connectivity to 14 mn commuters every day. It will also cover almost 100% of all national highways, and 84% of all state highways, giving millions of users the power to talk, text, surf, play, chat or simply stay in touch across nearly the entire length of India's 2,00,000-km-long road network.Having achieved tremendous growth, the main challenge for Reliance Communications is to improve quality of service and ARPU. Its enterprise business is also not in a position to compete with the global majors. Stock market valuations may boost the fortunes of an entrepreneur, but Ambani needs to address the issues faced by the growing mobile customer base, especially in India, where bureaucracy takes pride in checking the businessman.

CHAPTER 2 : LITERATURE REVIEW

LITERATURE SURVEY

According to the Webster’s dictionary, literature is “the writings that pertain to a particular branch of learning, and printed matter”. And review means “to examine again, to study carefully”. Therefore l iterature review is the printed matter which we study very carefully during our work. This project is also a collection of insight into the different printed material. As this project is specifically related to sales of financial products hence books on investments is one of the study materials. The insurance institute of India has published books which give an insight into the l ife insurance products and general insurance products. The main source of data through which this project has taken its shape is the circulars of SEBI and IRDA. These circulars give description of existing market. The knowledge about the marketing principles is gained from the book “principles of marketing” written by Philip Kotler. Chapter “positioning and marketing of services” of the “service management and operations” published by prentice hall international editions gives us the outline of marketing of services. Chapter “Building Customer Satisfaction, Value and Retention” of “Marketing Management” written by Philip Kotler. Purpose of this book is to provide background needed to understand the basics of forming strong customer bonds and customer relationship management. Chapter on distribution channels in the book “marketing channels” written by Louis W .stern & add I.E.I Ansary. Purpose of this book is to provide the detailed knowledge about what is distribution channel, its importance & role in marketing. Chapter “The concept and role of mutual funds” of the AMFI mutual fund testing programme by association of mutual funds in India. This book provide concept of mutual funds. The article “managing your Demat account” published in the MINT dated June 18, 2007 page 12 give knowledge about Demat account. Last but not the least, the practical experiences of reliance money has given the best ever exposure on the actually market works in financial products and services.

SIGNIFICANCE OF STUDY

The need of the study arises because of the reason that a trainee must understand the company, its achievements and tasks, products and services

Page | 34

P a g e | 35

and also to collect information about its competitors, its products and services offered. So that, after understanding and collecting information about the organization and its competitors, a trainee will be able to work well for the organization.

CHAPTER 3 : MAIN STUDIESINTRODUCTION OF THE TOPIC ;

Page | 35

P a g e | 36

What is SWOT Analysis?

SWOT analysis is a basic, straightforward model that provides direction and serves as a basis for the development of marketing plans. It accomplishes this by assessing an organizations strengths (what an organization can do) and weaknesses (what an organization cannot do) in addition to opportunities (potential favorable conditions for an organization) and threats (potential unfavorable conditions for an organization). SWOT analysis is an important step in planning and its value is often underestimated despite the simplicity in creation. The role of SWOT analysis is to take the information from the environmental analysis and separate it into internal issues (strengths and weaknesses) and external issues (opportunities and threats). Once this is completed, SWOT analysis determines if the information indicates something that will assist the firm in accomplishing its objectives (a strength or opportunity),SWOT analysis is a general technique which can be applied across diverse functions and activities, but it is particularly appropriate to the early stages of planning for a TIPD visit. Performing SWOT analysis involves generating and recording the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats relating to a given task. It is customary for the analysis to take account of internal resources and capabilities (strengths and weaknesses) and factors external to the organization (opportunities and threats).

SWOT analysis can provide:

A framework for identifying and analyzing strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. This checklist is for those carrying out, or participating in, SWOT analysis. It is a simple, popular technique which can be used in preparing or amending plans, in problem solving and decision making. Illustrative diagram of SWOT analysis If SWOT analysis does not start with defining a desired end state or objective, it runs the risk of being useless. A SWOT analysis may be incorporated into the strategic planning model. An example of a strategic planning technique that incorporates an objective-driven SWOT analysis is SCAN analysis. Strategic Planning, including SWOT and SCAN analysis, has been the subject of much research. Strengths: attributes of the organization those are helpful to achieving the objective. Weaknesses: attributes of the organization those are harmful to achieving the objective. Opportunities: external conditions those are helpful to achieving the objective. Threats: external conditions that is harmful to achieving the objective. SWOT analysis can be used for all sorts of decision-making, and the SWOT template enables proactive thinking, rather than relying on habitual or instinctive reactions. The SWOT analysis template is normally presented as a grid, comprising four sections, one for each of the SWOT headings: Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats. The free SWOT template below includes sample questions, whose answers are inserted into the relevant section of the SWOT grid. The questions are examples, or discussion points, and obviously can be altered depending on the subject of the SWOT analysis. Note that many of the SWOT questions are also talking points for other headings - use them as you find most helpful, and make up your own to suit the issue being analyzed. It is important to clearly identify the subject of a SWOT analysis, because a SWOT analysis is a perspective of one thing, be it a company, a product, a proposition, and idea, a method, or option, etc.

Page | 36

P a g e | 37

Here are some examples of what a SWOT analysis can be used to assess:

a company (its position in the market, commercial viability, etc) a method of sales distribution a product or brand a business idea a strategic option, such as entering a new market or launching a new product a opportunity to make an acquisition a potential partnership changing a supplier outsourcing a service, activity or resource an investment opportunity

Porters is. its ability to create more value, on a sustainable basis, for the customer than its

rivels can. The competitiveness of a corp. flow froms a clearly defined strategy, devised

after analysis the different forces in the industry impacting on the company, According to

Porterian three generic alternatives:

Cost leadership, differentiation, or strategic focus. Applying these principles along with the

related ones of building entry barriers, erecting economics of scale, developing marketing

competitors Reliance has attained global levels of competitiveness adopting a single unique

route to attain competitive status (their competitive weapon is the scale of operations).

TECHNOLOGY

Reliances led achievement in manufacturing is, of course, its comment once process

technology since its products do not need cutting edge. Not only has Reliance pushed its

production capacity beyond normal levels, its has develop supervisor processes to increase

the utilisation and cost efficiency level .The company has technical collaborations with Du-

Pont Canada, Unipol/sheel technology Japan, and Sinco technology Japan which name

enhanced their capabilities in the areas of production efficiency and quality improvements

- this helping Reliance to supply to its customers the best of quality at the right

about by the digitalisation and convergence. In the fast moving and competitive knowledge

era, Communication is not only a driver of growth but also competitiveness. Reliance

Communication is revolutionising telecommunication in India by provisioning services that

would match with the leading operators of the most developed countries. These services are

the outcome of state-of-the-art network technologies that have been inducted in the

Reliance Communication network.

P a g e | 40

wireline access.The switching technology deployed in our network is based on a

combination of wireline and wireless switches. While state-of-the-art digital feature-rich

wireline switches meet the growing needs of Indian corporates, the CDMA 1X based

wireless switches are advanced enough to provision not only quality spectrum efficient

voice services but also 144 kbps of data rates besides SMS and MMS services. CDMA 1X

you are doing but nobody else does”.Reliance is a big or one may say a massive industrial

by :- with its rapid industrial vertical integration it has created awareness and an image for

Recognition to Mr. Ambani work hear also seen when he received the awarded for the best

industrialist by the Wharton school of management USA.Most of the advertising for

Reliance is done by the Advertising Agency "Mudra" which is there in house agency.The

company is an industrial product advertiser. Some most common objective of its one to

inform, to bring in orders, to stimate queries, to empanel the marketers name on the

encouraged for understanding their requirements to fulfill their quality needs. R&D efforts

are thus fine tuned to deliver solutions. The focus of the R&D and market development

efforts is not merely to sell and service customers but to deliver value. Reliance's R&D

development of new product applications. Equipped with most modern instruments and

equipment and manned by well talented technologists. PARC is today a state of the art

technology center in the Indian petrochemical industry. Its regular publications and

programs meet with great acceptance from customers. The many presentations made by

PARC teams over the year have been recognized as well researched and highly relevant.

company dedicated towards applying latest technology for the customer's benefit in an

environment friendly way.We believe that : Our aims of employee development are not just

THE RELIANCE: LAUNCHING STRATEGIES

Reliance communication is in the process of establishing a nation-wide, high capacity,

integrated (wireless and wire-line) and convergent (Voice, data and video) digital network,

to offer services that span the entire communication value chain – infrastructure, services

Page | 44

P a g e | 45

for enterprises and individuals, applications and consulting. The company’s punch line for

prospective customers recalls Dhirubhai Ambani’s words : “Male a telephone call cheaper

than a post card”.The network based on code division multiple access (CDMA) technology

aims to cover more than 65 percent of India’s urban population. A senior Reliance official

told frontline that the company opted for this platform because CDMA is the best

technology. GSM (global mobile communications) is history. Reliance says the difference

between the two technologies is significant. “Reliance’s delayed launch is costing it not only

in terms of revenue but in credibility as well” a telecom analyst said. Having realized this,

and in order to stymie its competitors from cornering the entire subscriber base, Reliance

is offering free access to its network until the commercial launched. The tactic appears to

be aimed at capturing subscribers who would not mind checking out the service. When it is

launched they would have realised its benefits and continue using it paying competitive

fees. This also gives them time to test the quantity of the network. By that time issues such

as interconnect, SMS (short messaging service) and Internet may get sorted out. Mehesh

Uppal, director, Telecommunications and Computer Information Systems, is critical of the

regulatory framework. “We are perhaps the only country where CDMA-based mobile

services are treated as an extension / add-on of a fixed line service rather than like any

other mobile service. The two technologies compete aggressively in the mobile market the

world over. That is what they should do in India”. He pointed out that the “real issue” was

not whether should be allowed or not. Since 1999, the regulatory framework regards in

technology natural terms except with respect to the last mile.The crux of the issue that has

raised a controversy is whether CDMA-based can be used by fixed-line operators on terms

and conditions not of mobile licences but fixed-line basic licences come with vastly different

Page | 45

P a g e | 46

and much more favourable interconnect terms for fixed-line operators which cellular

operators do not have. Uppal believes that the earlier choice of GSM “was a good one”.

“The market was nascent. It was a small market. Had there been different technologies, the

market would have been split and made it even more difficult to achieve volume

efficiencies,” he remarked.He argues: “Since both technologies have came into their own,

they should be allowed to compete head-on. We should not have the current regulation,

which applied different sets of terms and conditions for their use. Technology neutrally is a

must”. The Reliance strategy is to straddle all three segments of operations in telecom –

fixed line, mobile and limited mobile, or services. Analysts and commentators agree that

TRAI is likely to remove the separate status as a category of service that has been accorded

to . The company already has a presence in national and international long-distance

telephony. TRAI’s recent ruling on tariffs has benefited operators. There are already

murmurs that the ruling fits Reliance’s requirements very well. Although cellular

operators, notable among them the Bharti Group, have alleged that they stand to lose Rs.

2,000 crores because of the free incoming calls mandated by TRAI charges, industry

sources say that it is now pay back time for cellular operators, who have consistently

benefited from favoured treatment at the hands of TRAI.The clear losers are, however, the

two publicly owned fixed-line telecom operators, Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd. (MTNL).

Although the new interconnect charges prescribed by TRAI appears to have “levelled the

field” between and cellular operators, the regulator has tilted the balance in faviour of the

companies by fixing differential pulse rates for the two sets of operators. Subscribers of

fixed-line operators in a non-metro- typically of MTNL or BSNL – be charged on a pulse

rate of 120 seconds if they call a phone. However, calls to a cell phone be charged at a

Page | 46

P a g e | 47

pulse rate of 60 seconds. In effect, calls to call to a phone. It boils down to this: it is cheaper

to call a phone than a cell phone, although the two platforms are basically the same. The

picture is even more gloomier from the viewpoint of the two public sector companies,

which have played a major part in extending the reach of telecom in India in the last

decade. First, their tariffs have been increased; this implies that subscribers have greater

incentive to migrate out of their networks, into the hands of competitors who may be seen

to be offering a better price for the service. Second, the structure of the interconnect

charges is such that the two public sector companies earn lower revenues if their

subscribers call subscribers belonging to rival companies, rather than cellular subscribers.

In effect, the TRAI ruling mandates that BSNL and MTNL subsidize the services of rival

companies. Moreover, the regulator has prepared the ground for a shakeout in the telecom

industry by, in effect, pushing existing MTNL and BSNL subscribers to migrate to another,

preferably platform. And, if the owner of that platform happens to be Reliance!One of the

elementary principles of networking relates to the way in which subscribers attribute value

to a network. The network is only as good as its reach. As the size of the network increases,

so does its value, but exponentially. Applying this to the Indian telecom industry can be of

some use. Basically, the reach of the Indian telecom network is still synonymous with the

reach that BSNL and MTNL have. Since the 1990s, the cellular operators have established

small networks, but have ridden the publicly owned system that has been laid with

considerable public investment. With the entry of Reliance, and the government’s own

commitment to sell BSNL and MTNL in the not-too-distant future (Mahajan is on record

as having said that BSNL “ not be sold before 2004”), it is evident that the field is being

prepared for the appropriation by private companies of infrastructure built by publicly

Page | 47

P a g e | 48

owned companies.Reliance has offered STD calls between it phone users at 40 paise per

minute, and added value to the proposition with the offer of a CDMA handset in exchange

for the GSM-based cellular phone and finance for a deferred payment option. The offer

remain on paper unless Reliance expands its own network of subscribers. But until such

time that its system acquires a critical mass, subscribers may be deterred from climbing on

to the Reliance bandwagon. What the new tariff structure does is to apply the pressure on

customers of other networks – subscribers to fixed-line operators and cellular operators, in

that order – to migrate to the Reliance or another platform, say, that of the Tatas. Reliance

also plans to use the CDMA to offer both SMS, and other data services to retail customers,

on its basic telephone package. For corporate customers, the company’s investments in

optic fibre offers broad-band connectivity. Its presence in the long-distance segment

enable it to provide “end-to-end services” for such clients. It has promised that the dial-up

Internet “be passe”. It is evident that Reliance is aiming to grab market shares

quickly.Mukesh Ambani, the company’s chairman, told reporters at the launch of Reliance

communication that the company aimed to provide anything between 1 and 8 million

handsets by March 2003. To put this is perspective, all the cellular operators together serve

about 10 million subscribers. The sharp increase in tariffs effectively rule out any increase

in teledensity in the short term. Analysts, who had suggested prior to the TRAI ruling that

teledensity increase sharply because of the entry of Reliance are likely to be way off the

mark because the tariff revision impact significantly on their prediction.

The Bharati Group has been among the key beneficiaries of the regulatory system so far.

Bharati has operations in 15 cellular circles and five basic circles; it has era of “managed

competition”, it have to make at least some way for Reliance. Reliance has licences that it

Page | 48

P a g e | 49

had from the initial foray in the first round of licence auctions. Instead, it appears to have

placed its bets rather early on the CDMA platform. In 2001, it gathered other services

operators and lobbied successfully with the Department of Telecommunications (DoT), the

Union Communications Ministry, TRAI and the apex tribunal to allow limited mobility

within a short distance. Until then was perceived only as a solution to bridge the “last

mile” problem in the telecom network.(The Reliance Group has a total revenue earnings of

Rs.65,000 crores a cash profit of over Rs.7,500 crores, a net profit of over Rs. 3,600 crores

and exports of Rs. 11,400 crores. The group has total assets valued at Rs. 69,000 crores.)A

senior Reliance official told Frontline said that TRAI’s ruling “has worked in our favour”.

Although he lamented the plight of the “average consumer”, he pointed out that they did

have a better alternative in Reliance. According to an informed source, TRAI “may

actually be a single tariff regime”.

A Reliance Official Told An Economic Daily Recently: “Don’t Forget That Our Company

May Seem To Be Diversified, But It Has Built A Core Competence In Terrific Project

Management And Government Liaison Skills Which Are A Must Core Sector Ventures”. That,

More Than Anything Else Sums up the Behemoth’s Foray into the Telecom Sector and the

Regulations That Govern It.

What Should Reliance Do:

Aggressive promotion of services and product with their competitive benefits than

other service provider in market. Only promoting the Unlimited STD offer not

serves the purpose.

Come up with competitive plans in prepaid market also. At present we have only

Rs700/- and Rs435/- plan only in prepaid services for Unlimited STD. (Reliance has

recently launch the lowest prepaid plan starting from Rs150/-).

This is total user base of Lucknow region. Airtel is maintaining the leadership in the

market followed by Vodafone and then comes Reliance.

Reason:

Airtel is a big old name in the cellular market.

Page | 50

P a g e | 51

Airtel always come up with some innovative plans and services for its customer for

e.g. Airtel was first one to come up with concept of Hello Tunes, Airtel was first one

to launch Advance Rental scheme, it has special plans for youth, women and senior

citizens. Airtel has something for all.

Vodafone has zero rental plans for its customer and very competitive call rates.

Both Vodafone and Airtel has roped up the best in the country as their brand

ambassadors. Vodafone has Rahul Dravid; Airtel has Shahrukh Khan and Sachin

Tendulkar.

Airtel and Vodafone push large amount of money in the promotion of their services,

and keep inform their customers about any new plan in market.

Benefits of Reliance

With Reliance you can start enjoying the mobility from Rs1800/- only.

Reliance has postpaid plan starting from Rs99/-. No service provider has any plan

lower than Rs149/-. In this way Reliance cut down your initial cost for enjoying the

mobility.

Chapter 6 Conclusions CONCLUSION

In the market survey we learnt so many things. We interacted with different types of

customer and also their behavior. In the market we found customer view that which type

of services make them satisfy. This project are fulfill with challenges. We noticed that there

are big competitions in the market And Customers are also very intelligent. They know

Page | 66

P a g e | 67

that where they will get benefits, so customers also do market survey before buying any

products. So Company also does market survey for knowing customer week point and also

for that in which types of services attract to customer. In the Reliance market survey we

learned all these things that how should talk with customer and how should interact with

the customer. In the Reliance market survey we know that how motivate of customer, how

sales product in market where a lot of competitor stay in market. We learned that how

survived our self in competition market and how cooperate each other in organization.

I am work of department as like sales department.

Finding & suggestion

I have done the marketing survey whole lucknow area and I have finding out the some problem about Reliance customer. There is some problem about reliance customer.

Many Reliance customer pending about billing process. Reliance communication should be improvement the billing process and when billing system is proper way than many

Page | 67

P a g e | 68

customer using reliance landline phone and any Reliance product.it the first requirement for the Reliance communication.

Lack of customer satisfied reliance sales person during the visiting for the customer place. Reliance communication sales person should be visiting and satisfied the customer .sales person visiting the customer area in proper way. This reason customer satisfied the reliance communication.

Many Reliance customer pending for broad band services. many customer said this broad band service is not good . because it is low downloading speed and some time secerns totale blank . Reliance should making the plan about broadband service.

Many people said no any information provide reliance communication employee.This reason many customer not understand about reliance new plan. This kind many customer not satisfied with reliance communication. Reliance employee should be telling about new planning.

Many customer basically (aminabad) Lucknow Pending about network performance. reliance basic need the network reach the customer in proper way.

Reliance visiting engineer should be visiting in every 2and 3 week.

RECOMMENDATION

Reliance should be launch itself cell phone attracting to customer.

Number of tower should be increase or New technology should be research for increase frequency power.

Page | 68

P a g e | 69

Customer care should be work proper ways.

Bill should be reach proper ways to the Customers because lot of customers are not satisfied from service.

Number of franchise should be increase because a lot of customer face problem for deposited bill.

Relationship should be good between customer and Reliance employees.
