loyalty towards BIJJARAGI Motors Bijapur”.
A consumer may have set of interests, benefits, attitudes and life style before
purchasing a product. But there might be a major change in his taste of preference after
the purchase has been made. In such a position it is difficult for the marketer to know the

Complexity since the last few years. These changes include a higher reach of mass media,
particularly due to an increased penetration of satellite Channels, availability of a greater
assortment of products and services. Higher level of consumer spending on items other
than basic necessities, more discerning choice behavior exhibited by consumers, and a
clear Indication of consumer preference for better value in products and services.
The passenger vehicle segment in the automobile industry plays a vital role in
India .The present day market is such that the passenger vehicle is affordable by Middle
class people in urban and semi-urban areas; it is also more convenient for traveling short
and long distance. Over the years the sales figured of the four wheelers has increased to a
very large extent. The sale of the four-wheeler in 1950 was nearly 300 units whereas now
the sales have shot up to millions.

after its inroads into the urban markets and rural rich. It is trying to bring in varying
products to suit requirements of different class segments of customers.

History of Automobile Industry
The history of the automobile industry in India actually began about 4,000 years
ago when the first wheel was used for transportation. In the early 15th century, the
Portuguese arrived in China and the interaction of the two cultures led to a variety of new
technologies, including the creation of a wheel that turned under its own power. By the
1600s, small steam-powered engine models were developed, but it was another century
before a full-sized engine-powered automobile was created.
The dream a carriage that moved on its own was realized only in the 18th century
when the first car rolled on the streets. Steam, petroleum gas, electricity and petrol started
to be used in these cars.
India's transport network is developing at a fast pace and the automobile industry
is growing too. The automobile industry also provides employment to a large section of
the population. Thus the role of automobile industry cannot be overlooked in Indian
Economy. All kinds of vehicles are produced by the automobile industry. It includes the
manufacture of trucks, buses, passenger cars, defence vehicles, two-wheelers, etc. The
industry can be broadly divided into the car manufacturing, two-wheeler manufacturing
and heavy vehicle-manufacturing units.
The major car manufacturers in India are Hindustan Motors, Maruti Udyog, Fiat
India Private Ltd., Ford India Ltd., General Motors India Pvt. Ltd., Honda Siel Cars India
Ltd., Hyundai Motors India Ltd., Skoda India Private Ltd., Toyota Kirloskar Motor Ltd.,
to name just a few.

INDIAN AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY
The Indian auto industry has grown at an impressive 16.82 per cent over
the last year with total sales of vehicles reaching around 10 million vehicles till
November 2006 as against 8.5 million in 2005. Spurred by a huge demand from the
market, the increase in production is set to improve further driven by a buoyant economy,
with increasing purchasing power, new product launches, coupled with attractive finance
schemes from automobile manufacturers and financial institutions. The domestic
passenger car market recorded a historic 22.66 per cent growth in April-December, 2006,
second only to the 28.56 per cent in fiscal 2003-04. Analysts believe the industry will
close fiscal 2006-07 with around 22-23 per cent growth, against just 16 per cent in
2005-06.
Destination India: India is on every major global automobile player's roadmap, and it
isn't hard to see why:
• India is the second largest two-wheeler market in the world
• Fourth largest commercial vehicle market in the world
• 11th largest passenger car market in the world
• Expected to be the seventh largest by 2016
Robust production: The cumulative growth of passenger vehicles segment during
April-February 2007 compared to the corresponding period in the last year was 22.91
per cent, while that of passenger cars in the same duration was 24.76 per cent, says
the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM). The commercial vehicles
segment grew by 36.12 per cent during the April-February 2007 period, while three

Economic Survey 2007-08 says:
The installed capacity of the automotive industry has been growing at a compounded
annual rate of over 16 per cent since 2001-02. It produced a wide variety of vehicles
including 1.7 million four wheelers (passenger cars, light, medium and heavy commercial
vehicles, multi-utility vehicles such as jeeps), and over 8 million two and three wheelers
(scooters, motor-cycles, mopeds, and three wheelers) in 2006-07.
India is the second-biggest market for small cars after Japan. It accounts for 60% of the
domestic market.
Facts Figures
It seems that India has finally arrived in the big league of Asian car markets. Steady and
impressive annual growth rate, presence of international automakers, relaxation of
foreign exchange and equity regulations, reduction of tariffs on imports and few others
are the components of its booming auto market. The country has now come to be
recognized as a potential emerging auto market. The perception of foreign investors has
changed, everybody wanting to be here.
For the first time, in the financial year end in 2005, the total sales of passenger vehicles -
cars, utility vehicles and multi-utility vehicles - crossed the one-million mark to touch
1.06 million, with exports of 166,000 vehicles.
Study says that by 2010 India will take over Germany in sales volumes and
Japan by 2012. And by 2050, Indians will buy every sixth car produced in the world.
Apart from serving the domestic market, the auto sector has turned as a sourcing base for
the global auto majors. The auto component market is also in its full swing. As per the
research of RNCOS, one of the leading industry firms, the Indian automobile component
BABASAB PATIL Page 9
10. STUDY OF CUSTOMER PERCEPTION AND LOYALTY TOWARDS BIJJARAGI
MOTORS
industry is estimated to triple from USD 63 billion to USD 190 billion within a span of
six years by 2012.
Indian Automobile Industry Estimation:
Estimated turnover USD 12 billion, plus components revenue USD 3 billion, this is the
vastness of Indian automobile industry. Industry analysts predict this industry to touch
USD 13000 million marks by 2010, a cumulative growth of 9.5% annually. It is said that
for every Re 1 spent, the auto sector returns Rs. 2.24 to the Indian economy.
Automobile Dealers Network in India
In terms of Car dealer networks and authorized service stations, Maruti
leads the pack with Dealer networks and workshops across the country. The other leading
automobile manufactures are also trying to cope up and are opening their service stations
and dealer workshops in all the metros and major cities of the country. Dealers offer
varying kind of discount of finances who in tern pass it on to the customers in the form of
reduced interest rates.
Automobile Export Numbers
Category 1998-99 2004-05 (Apr-Dec)
Passenger Car 25468 121478

Two Wheelers 100002 256765
Three Wheelers 21138 51535
Percentage Growth 16.6 32.8
The industry has adopted the global standards and this was manifested in the increasing
exports of the sector. After a temporary slump during 1998- 99 and 1999-00, such exports
BABASAB PATIL Page 10
11. STUDY OF CUSTOMER PERCEPTION AND LOYALTY TOWARDS BIJJARAGI
MOTORS
registered robust growth rates of well over 50 per cent in 2002-03 and 2003-04 each to
exceed two and- a-half times the export figure for 2001-02.
EVEN Growth
Opposing the belief that the growth in automobile industry has catered
only to the top income-stratum of society, Growth of exports of 32.8 % in the first three
quarters of 2004-05, the fastest growth in volumes has come from commercial vehicles as
against passenger car.
Between 1998-99 and 2003-04, output of commercial vehicles has grown 2.8 times
compared to the 2.2 times increase in passenger cars. Furthermore, two-wheeler output
continues to dominate the volume statistics of the sector. In 2003-04, for every passenger
car turned out by the sector, there were 7 two-wheelers produced. In the two wheeler
segment, there is a greater preference for motorcycles followed by scooters, with both
production and domestic sales of motorcycles increasing at faster rates than for scooters
in the current and previous years. However, mopeds have registered low or negative
growth. Export growth rates have been high both for motorcycles and scooters.

MOTORS
THE KEY FACTORS BEHIND THIS UPSWING:
Sales incentives, introduction of new models as well as variants coupled with easy
availability of low cost finance with comfortable repayment options continued to drive
demand and sales of automobiles during the first two quarters of the current year. The
risk of an increase in the interest rates, the impact of delayed monsoons on rural demand,
and increase in the costs of inputs such as steel are the key concerns for the players in the
industry.
As the players continue to introduce new models and variants, the
competition may intensify further. The ability of the players to contain costs and focus on
exports will be critical for the performance of their respective companies.
The auto component sector has also posted significant growth of 20 per
cent in 2003-04, to achieve a sales turnover of Rs.30,640 crore (US$ 6.7 billion). Further,
there is a potential for higher growth due to outsourcing activities by global automobiles
giants. Today, this sector has emerged as another sunrise sector.
