      <title>Understanding the Indian consumer</title>

        <![CDATA[<img src="http://cdn.slidesharecdn.com/understandingtheindianconsumer-091221002800-phpapp01-thumbnail-2?1261376907" alt ="" style="border:1px solid #C3E6D8;float:right;" /><br> Indicus Indian Consumer Spectrum Series-1. This is the first in a 33-part series that will cover 101 consumer segments categorized by stage of life and occupation, expenditure and savings propensity, family structure and psychographics and will study what makes the Indian consumer tick

Much has been made of the great heterogeneity that characterizes the Indian consumers. Many, in fact, claim that there are so many cuts along which one can classify the Indian consumer that a really complete characterization is next to impossible. But still others keep on attempting to ascertain the proclivities of Indian consumers—and they use a range of criteria.

In our grandparents’ days, questions about caste or jaati were asked directly. In our parents’ times, the questions were more muted and only the last name of a person was sought. Whatever be the mode, biradiri, or community, is an important part of Indian social interaction. Since independence, a new set of social markers have come up. Though a few of the older generation will still “let slip” how their parents came from Lahore, or how their forefathers owned large mango orchards in East Bengal, the new generations use a different set of markers. The educational institutions we went to, the neighbourhood that we live in, the professional class we belong to, the school our children go to, are only some of the non-wealth markers used to communicate a certain lifestyle, and/or a certain class.

Over a period of time, many notions evolved—the conservative Tamil, the spendthrift Punjabi, the economical Bengali, the loud Marwari, and so on. Jaati and biradiri became less important than the region that one’s family hailed from. It took the reforms and the consequent consumption boom to finally break those markers as well. As southern India grabbed the new opportunities that came with economic reforms, and incomes rose, Chennai and Bangalore suddenly became consumption hotspots. But in these cities as well not everyone benefited from the reforms—the politician-contractor nexus gave rise to a new class of nouveau riche.

How cities define size of households
Cities that are growing rapidly and have high levels of in-migration also tend to have smaller households
The majority of households in the top 112 cities in India constitute between three and five persons, including children and adults. Yet, at least a quarter of the households have at least six persons in it, and just 15% consist of one-two people living under one roof.
 
Typically, cities in southern India and larger cities tend to have smaller households. This is partly due to lower fertility rates among women who are better educated and live in households with higher incomes—both more likely in the south and in larger cities. But education and awareness are not the only criteria that determine household size.
Cities that are growing rapidly and have high levels of in-migration also tend to have smaller households. Early migrants tend to be unmarried, and, even if married, may live by themselves. It is only after a few years of living in a new location, and after they establish themselves, do their families join them

The series was produced by Indicus Analytics and published by Mint between March and September, 2009.
The series draws mainly from the Products suite of Indicus Analytics. 
These are:
District GDP of India
Industrial Skyline of India
Market Skyline of India
City Skyline of India
City Skyline of India – Neighborhood series
Indian Financial Scape
Indian Consumer Spectrum
Housing Skyline of India
Indian Development Landscape

Unlike in urban markets where demand is highly concentrated, rural markets tend to be spread out. This increases the sales efforts and costs

it is the middle bulge of expenditure by the middle class that accounts for the bulk of India’s urban consumer expenditure 

As India and Indian consumers change rapidly, there is one churn that has already played out in urban India. The joint family is dead and the extended family is dying. It is now the era of nuclear families
Cities that are growing rapidly and have high levels of in-migration also tend to have smaller households
As incomes increase, media reach increases, electrification spreads and education levels rise, and the demand for durables expand significantly
If India’s top 112 cities are classified into metros, state capitals and other cities, we see that metros on an average have the lowest savings rate and highest per capita income

      <title>How the States were Ranked</title>

to follow. First, you can administer questionnaires
and respondents’ reply to specific questions.
However, this route presumes that respondents know
about all the states you wish to rank. Typically, that
doesn’t happen. Respondents know about states they
operate in (or are located in). Second, you can use
objective data. (There’s a third alternative of splicing
subjective and objective, but that’s neither here nor
there.) We used the objective route, relying solely on
data from Central sources, so that non-comparability of
data across states was not an issue.
The next step is to identify the parameters to rank
states. We picked eight heads. Prosperity and budget
(percentage of population above poverty line,
percentage of urban population, per capita capital
expenditure, inflation, per capita debt, per capita GSDP,
per capita revenue of SEB); law and order (number of
policemen per lakh people, ratio of cases filed to
pending cases in district and lower courts, share of
murders, kidnappings, rapes and molestations to total
cognisable crimes); health (infant mortality ratio or IMR,
ratio of male IMR to female IMR, percentage of births
assisted by trained personnel, percentage of homes
having tap water as principal source of water, registered
doctors per million population, sex ratio and per capita
expenditure on health and family welfare by state
Government); education (literacy rate, proportion of
10-plus children having completed primary education,
ratio of boys to girls in elementary school, teacher-pupil
ratio and expenditure on elementary education per 6 to
14-year-old); consumer market (households owning TVs,
number of affluent households in urban and rural
areas, per capita deposits in banks and per capita
ownership of two-wheelers); agriculture (percentage of
cultivated area under cash crops, agriculture GSDP per
rural population, agriculture electricity consumption
per rural population, foodgrain yield, loans extended to
farmers and net irrigated area); infrastructure
(percentage of homes with electricity, percentage of
villages connected with pucca roads, per capita road
length, bank branches, LPG connections, post offices and
telephones); and investment (per capita capital
expenditure, commercial bank credit and gross capital
formation in manufacturing, ratio of factories to
number of disputes, ratio of industrial workers to urban
15-59 population, and percentage of sick SSIs). Data on
all the parameters was normalised.]]>

      <title>Demand Curve - The rapidly growing stable markets of southern India</title>
      <link>http://www.slideshare.net/indicusanalytics/demand-curve-the-rapidly-growing-stable-markets-of-southern-india</link>
      <description>
        <![CDATA[<img src="http://cdn.slidesharecdn.com/therapidlygrowingstablemarketsofsouthernindia-090908011548-phpapp02-thumbnail-2?1252390715" alt ="" style="border:1px solid #C3E6D8;float:right;" /><br> Good Governance, and high levels of public security have contributed to the success of the southern states 

About 30 of India’s top 112 cities are located in the four southern states—Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu; but the bulk of them are in India’s most urbanized large state, Tamil Nadu. About half of the state’s population lives in cities and most of these cities have a strong manufacturing base. While Chennai as the state capital is the financial and commercial hub, Thiruvallur also has a large tertiary sector. These two cities with their higher incomes and diversified activity rank at the top of the list of urban markets in the states and among the top 25 of the country. Others that make it to the top 50 urban markets of India include Kancheepuram, Kanyakumari, Madurai and Salem. Kancheepuram, the city of a thousand temples and silk saree centre, has also attracted investment from large production houses—Ford, St Gobain and Hyundai, etc., while steel city Salem is also a major textile centre.

From Karnataka only Bangalore makes it to the top 50 urban markets and Kerala’s Thiruvananthapuram and Kochi rank here. Four of the top 50 urban markets are from Andhra Pradesh: Hyderabad and areas surrounding Rangareddy, Visakhapatnam and Vijayawada.

Despite their high ranking in India’s urban markets, it would not be correct to place all four states of the south in the same basket—each has a distinct socio-economic identity. While Tamil Nadu has the highest urbanization level, Kerala has one of the lowest. Yet, incomes in Kerala are high, with a highly literate and skilled population bringing in remittances from abroad. Rural incomes in Kerala are also higher than the levels seen in other states. In fact, in terms of character, it is difficult to distinguish between rural and urban markets in Kerala. Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh, both larger states, have significant regional imbalances within and urban clusters are few and concentrated.

Karnataka’s urban markets are highly concentrated in the southern part in and around Bangalore. The region around Mangalore ranks a very distant second in the state. Some of the northern parts of Karnataka are not very different from parts of Bihar and UP or even sub-saharan Africa on many socio-economic parameters. The same is true for the region around Dharmapuri in Tamil Nadu. But all in all, urban centres are much better spread in south India. Moreover, they are well networked with surrounding rural areas through a relatively well-maintained rural road network. This ensures that some part of the higher value demand from rural areas is fed by urban areas in these states.

Two factors that have contributed to the success of southern states are good governance and high levels of public security. Law and order has been maintained while bureaucracy has delivered on many fronts, relative to the northern states. Land reforms have also been more successful in Tamil Nadu and Kerala than in other states and a more decentralized government has helped. Moreover, despite being highly dependent upon the international economy, these urban centres have managed to bear the international economic slowdown well—this indicates that these are not only rapidly growing markets, they are also very stable. Manufacturing, services and agriculture have all benefited from good governance and higher education in the region.

Interestingly, though the south will remain an important source of urban consumption, it would not be very different in character from other parts of India. It is becoming fairly clear that socio-economic or cultural differences are not affecting the size or character of urban consumer markets to a large extent. High levels of consumer expenditure are seen in Chennai—what was considered by many to be a conservative spender. Hyderabad shows levels of conspicuous consumption, not very different from New Delhi. Bangalore’s large professional class behaves not very different from that in Mumbai, where consumption expenditures are concerned.

In other words, though all cities are different, with different cultural and socio-economic characteristics, consumption characteristics are not that different once we account for the incomes, education and socio-economic characteristics of the individual consumer.]]>

About 30 of India’s top 112 cities are located in the four southern states—Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu; but the bulk of them are in India’s most urbanized large state, Tamil Nadu. About half of the state’s population lives in cities and most of these cities have a strong manufacturing base. While Chennai as the state capital is the financial and commercial hub, Thiruvallur also has a large tertiary sector. These two cities with their higher incomes and diversified activity rank at the top of the list of urban markets in the states and among the top 25 of the country. Others that make it to the top 50 urban markets of India include Kancheepuram, Kanyakumari, Madurai and Salem. Kancheepuram, the city of a thousand temples and silk saree centre, has also attracted investment from large production houses—Ford, St Gobain and Hyundai, etc., while steel city Salem is also a major textile centre.

From Karnataka only Bangalore makes it to the top 50 urban markets and Kerala’s Thiruvananthapuram and Kochi rank here. Four of the top 50 urban markets are from Andhra Pradesh: Hyderabad and areas surrounding Rangareddy, Visakhapatnam and Vijayawada.

Despite their high ranking in India’s urban markets, it would not be correct to place all four states of the south in the same basket—each has a distinct socio-economic identity. While Tamil Nadu has the highest urbanization level, Kerala has one of the lowest. Yet, incomes in Kerala are high, with a highly literate and skilled population bringing in remittances from abroad. Rural incomes in Kerala are also higher than the levels seen in other states. In fact, in terms of character, it is difficult to distinguish between rural and urban markets in Kerala. Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh, both larger states, have significant regional imbalances within and urban clusters are few and concentrated.

Karnataka’s urban markets are highly concentrated in the southern part in and around Bangalore. The region around Mangalore ranks a very distant second in the state. Some of the northern parts of Karnataka are not very different from parts of Bihar and UP or even sub-saharan Africa on many socio-economic parameters. The same is true for the region around Dharmapuri in Tamil Nadu. But all in all, urban centres are much better spread in south India. Moreover, they are well networked with surrounding rural areas through a relatively well-maintained rural road network. This ensures that some part of the higher value demand from rural areas is fed by urban areas in these states.

Two factors that have contributed to the success of southern states are good governance and high levels of public security. Law and order has been maintained while bureaucracy has delivered on many fronts, relative to the northern states. Land reforms have also been more successful in Tamil Nadu and Kerala than in other states and a more decentralized government has helped. Moreover, despite being highly dependent upon the international economy, these urban centres have managed to bear the international economic slowdown well—this indicates that these are not only rapidly growing markets, they are also very stable. Manufacturing, services and agriculture have all benefited from good governance and higher education in the region.

Interestingly, though the south will remain an important source of urban consumption, it would not be very different in character from other parts of India. It is becoming fairly clear that socio-economic or cultural differences are not affecting the size or character of urban consumer markets to a large extent. High levels of consumer expenditure are seen in Chennai—what was considered by many to be a conservative spender. Hyderabad shows levels of conspicuous consumption, not very different from New Delhi. Bangalore’s large professional class behaves not very different from that in Mumbai, where consumption expenditures are concerned.

In other words, though all cities are different, with different cultural and socio-economic characteristics, consumption characteristics are not that different once we account for the incomes, education and socio-economic characteristics of the individual consumer.]]>
