1.1 Overview Of Study
Customer satisfaction is term frequently used in marketing. It is a measure of how products and
services supplied by a company meet or surpass customer expectation. Customer satisfaction is
defined as “the number of customers or percentage of total customers, Whose reported experiences
with a firm, its products or its services(ratings) exceeds specified satisfaction goals.
India is the second largest manufacturer and producer of two-wheelers in the world stands next only
to Japan and china in terms of the number Of two-wheelers and produced and domestic sales
respectively.This distinction was achieved due to variety of reasons like restrictive policy
followed by the government of india towards the passenger car industry, rising demand for personal
transport, inefficiency in the public transportation system etc. The Indian two-wheelers industry
made a small beginning In the early 50s when Automobile Products of India(API) started
manufacturing scooters in the country.In the last few years, the Indian two wheelers has spectacular
growth the country stands next to china and Japan in terms of production and sales
respectively.Majority or Indians especially the youngster prefer motorbikes rather than cars.
Capturing a large Share in the two wheelers industry, bikes and scooters cover major segment.Bikes
are large variety of two wheelers are available in the market known for the latest technology and
enhanced mileage Indian bikes, mopeds represent style and class for both men and women In India.

1.3.1 Apache RTR160
Figure 1.3.1 Apache RTR160
Apache is TVS' answer to the ever growing premium 150cc segment. Borrowing the ‘racing DNA’
from TVS racing, the Bike comes with an air cooled 159.7cc engine belting out 15.2 bhp of power
and 13.1 Nm of torque. It also features an analogue-digital combo console, gas charged shock
absorbers and a front petal disc brake. The claimed mileage figure is at 60kmpl. The bike is priced
at 72,514 serving the performance purists in the 150cc and above class of bikes, the Apache range
of motorcycles from TVS comes with an extremely peppy and grunty motor coupled with equally
enthusiastic handling dynamics.

1.3.2 Apache RTR 180
Figure 1.3.2 Apache RTR 180
The Apache RTR 180 is a small displacement performance bike offering from TVS Motor
Company. In terms of both looks and performance, the Apache R TR 180 is a very good product
and offers great value for money. Sharp design elements, including LED DRLs with pilot lamps
lend the Apache RTR 180 aggressive looks. The engine, tank and tail cowls are styled with
aerodynamic race design and also get racy decals. The instrument panel gets an LCD display of the
Apache RTR 180 is quite good.

1.3.3. Apache RTR 200 4V
Figure 1.3.3. Apache RTR 200 4V
The TVS Apache RTR 200 is the flagship offering from the hosur based two-wheelers giant.
Though one can say that TVS made its fans wait a long-time for the bigger displacement Apache
but the wait was worth it. The styling is chiselled and sharp while maintaining the design DNA of
the Apache family and is a good looking motorcycle. The Apache RTR 200 also gets LED DRLs
and an all-digital instrument cluster with a lap timer and top speed recorder being the standout
features. The new TVS motorcycle has been priced at Rs 89,457 for the base variant and competes
against the Bajaj Pulsar NS200 and the new Yamaha FZ25.

1.3.4 Phoenix
Figure1.3.4 Phoenix
The second 125cc offering by the Chennai-based bike maker after the not-so successful TVS Flame,
the Phoenix is powered by an all-new Eco Thrust engine that’s both refined and frugal. The Phoenix
comes with several attractive features such as a digital speedo with amber backlight, a digital fuel
gauge, a low battery reminder, petal disc brake at the front,etc,though overall styling is still very
conventional compared to the competition.

1.3.6 StarCity Plus
Figure1.3.6 Star City Plus
TVS Motors were among the biggest players in the 110cc commuter segment at the turn of the
century with Victor range of motorcycles. Sadly for the hosur based manufacturer, the Victor
couldn’t survive the test time and slowly faded away after making a promising start.TVS knew that
it couldn’t afford to bow out from the commuter segment given the volumes they register. For this
purpose it launched the Star City range of commuters and the new TVS Star City+ is the flagship
offering in the commuter segment from the manufacturer. The styling of the bike is similar to any
modern commuter motorcycle with a biking fairing, single piece headlamp, alloy wheels, sculpted
fuel tank and the works. But owing to the snazzy graphics and the use of chrome on the exhaust
shield and the 3D logo, the Star City+ is striking for a commuter offering. The Star City+ has an
analogue dial for speedometer and a digital fuel gauge along with a service indicator and typical
TVS,eco and power mode indicator. Switch gear quality of the motorcycle is fantastic and wouldn’t
seem out of place on a more expensive motorcycle. Build quality and paint finish is also impressive
and the bike is solidly put together and this has slowly becoming a hallmark of TVS products.

1.3.7 Sport
Figure1.3.7 Sport
Refreshing its commuter range, TVS Motor Company has launched an updated version of the TVS
Sport. The 100cc motorcycle comes with improved mileage and some new features. The new TVS
Sport now claims to offer fuel economy of 95kmpl “under standard drive cycle conditions”, which
is over 7kmpl more than the older model’s claim of 87.7kmpl.According to an official statement
released by TVS motor the reason for this improved fuel economy is the TVS Sport’s Dura Life
Engine. It continues to be powered by a 99.7cc single cylinder motor, good for 7.5PS peak power,
and torque rating of 7.5NM, which comes mated to a 4-speed transmission. The engine has been
worked up on to reduced friction, which helps in improving the overall mileage of the motorcycle.
Besides this, the company has used chrome plated piston rings and roller cam follower in the Dura
Life Engine which also lower engine friction..

1.3.8 Jupiter
Figure1.3.8 Jupiter
The Jupiter is TVS’s attempt to take on the Honda Activa which is the undisputed king of the 110cc
scooter segment in India. To make the Jupiter stand apart from its rivals, TVS has loaded the Jupiter
with an exhaustive list of features most of which were segment firsts. The 110cc TVS scooter has
been priced at Rs 49,034 ex-showroom Delhi. The Jupiter has been well received in the Indian
market and recently the MillionR variant was launched to commemorate the sales of 1 million units
of the popular scooter. The special edition of the Jupiter gets a unique wine red shade and also disc
brake as an optional extra.TVS claims a mileage figure of 62kmpl.

1.3.9 Wego
Figure1.3.9 Wego
The TVS Wego was the first modern line-up of scooter launched by TVS few years back in the
Indian market. It has recently received two new colours shades of metallic orange and t-grey. The
Wego was positioned as a female oriented scooter. It had sharp styling to set it apart from its
competitors. The Wego also employed metal body panels, the scooter weighs just 108kg.it also
features a full-digital instrument console, a first for any TVS scooter. The Wego also features power
and eco mode indicator.TVS claims a fuel efficiency of 62kmpl for its 110cc scooter. The scooter
has an under seat storage of 16 litres while mobile charger is an optional extra. The Wego rides on
12-inche dia alloy wheels which aid in improving stability and handling dynamics. The TVS Wego

1.3.10 ScootyZest
Figure 1.3.10 Scooty Zest
The Scooty Zest is TVS motor Company’s 110cc scooter offering targeted specifically at female
riders. Looking at the Scooty legacy of TVS Motors, the Scooty Zest has ditched the small ‘moped-
ish’ looks of the earlier Scootys and the Zest now is a full sized scooter, even though it looks
sleekier and smaller than its competition. Build quality is good, and ergonomics are well sorted,
even for taller riders. In terms of looks, the design is all-new; the front apron gets new styling with a
new headlamp and new twilight lamps. The leaf shaped mirrors are all-new as well, and the Scooty
Zest gets high quality grips and nice switchgear with painted switches and a useful parking brake as
well. There is a new LED tail lamp at the rear and a smart looking grab rail and a new exhaust
muffler with a stainless steel guard.

Figure 1.3.11 Scooty Pep Plus
TVS Motors had launched the 2016 edition the Scooty Pep Plus where it got 11 new colours and
graphics. The Scooty was launched in 1996 and in the past two decades has spawned various
iteration and variants. A major chunk of the Scooty’s success has been its positioning. As part of its
marketing strategy, TVS has positioned the Scooty itself is a scooterette with diminutive
dimensions like a low 768mm seat height and a light weight of just 95kilos.The 87.8cc four stroke
single-cylinder motor makes 5PS and 5.8Nm.

Figure 1.3.12 XL Heavy Duty
TVS had launched a new four-stroke TVS XL100 at Rs 28,843(ex-showroom, Maharashtra) on
March 29th; 2016.The moped has been around since the 80’s. The TVS XL Heavy Duty has been a
hit in the rural regions of south India for its no-nonsense and single-minded approach as a two-
wheeled load lugger.It gets Heavy-Duty rear shock absorbers, wide front-loading platform and a
removable rear seat to make space for more luggage. The moped is as basis as they come though it
does get interesting colours. It is powered by a 69.9cc two-stroke engine that delivers 3.5PS and
5nm of torque. The gearbox is a basic single-speed unit mated to a centrifugal clutch. The bike
cannot be sold in cities owing to emission regulations but is intended for rural markets. While the
XL Heavy Duty weighs 75kilos, it is rated for a payload of 130 kilos. Fuel efficiency is rated at
67kmpl and the moped gets a 4-litre tank. The TVS XL Heavy Duty retails at Rs 26,867 and makes
sense if you need a no-nonsense two-wheeler to lug stuff around on a daily basis and expert
extremely low running cost out of it.

CHAPTER II
LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1 Theoretical concepts
A literature review is a description of the literature relevant relevant to a particular field or topic.Its
gives an overview of what methods and methodologies are appropriate and useful. As, such, it is not
in itself primary research, but rather it reports on other findings.A literature review may be purely
descriptive, as in an annotated bibliography, or it may provide a critical assessment of the literature
in a particular field.
Here is one definition of a literature review:”.A literature review uses as its database, reports of
primary or original scholarship, and does not report new primary scholarship itself.The primary
reports used in the literature may be verbal, but in the vast majority of cases reports are written
documents.The types of scholarship may be empirical, theoretical, critical/analytic, or
methodological in nature.second a literature review seeks to describe summaries, evaluate, clarify
and/or integrate the content of primary reports.”
A literature review will generally be a part of a thesis or dissertation, forming an early context-
setting chapter.It may also form a useful background where you are outlining a piece of research, or
putting forward a hypothesis.Review of literature is a study of literature available on the problem
selected by the researcher and to review the relevant literature that has been reported earlier in the
form of literature.Review of literature suggests new planning approach for the investigation.In the
words of Busha & Harter(1980) ‘Literature review is a critical summary of different facts of
research problem as reported in existing sources’.Further, they state that literature search on
literature review is an attempt to identify, locate and synthesise completed research reports, articles,
books and other material about the specific problems of a research topic.

17. SKASC PROJET 2019
BBA DEPARTMENT | 17
2.2 Review of literature
R.Nair susa (2000) the success of the firm will be determined by how effective it how effective it
has been in meeting the diverse customer needs and wants by treating each customer as unique and
offering products and services to suit his/her needs.
Pasanen(1992) reviewed three studies relating collision speeds and pedestrian injury severity,
finding their results quite consistent and that the probability of pedestrian death reached nearly
modelling the data estimated that of pedestrian would die when struck by a vehicle traveling 20
mph.
Wazan(1998)reviewed articles identifying risk factors for child pedestrian injuries.Two studies
showed that higher speed limits were associated with higher risk of injury to child pedestrians.
Roberts(1995)found an odds ratio of 40-49 km/h 25-30 mph roads with lower limits, and in the
seattle area found odds ratios of 3.2 for child pedestrian zones and for roads with limits above 64
km/h 40 mph roads with speed limits.
Murphy John and Bellman Eric(2008). It has been discussed that in 1948, the Bajaj Auto Ltd
came with importing and selling of Vespa scooters.The scope of the scooters had decreased since
the boom in the motorcycle market segment.The customers’ preferences changes the automative
strategies adopted by the Hero Motor co. in India.
Dhananjoy Datta(2010). There are many factors on which the buying behaviour of the customers
depends and these factors motivate them to purchase a two-wheeler.These factors include
advertisement ,word of mouth, references from family, friends, own experiences, features, price,
et.The result of the survey done was that around 51% of the customers having two-wheeled fall in
the age group of 20-30 years, while their income is above Rs.5000. 64% people are unmarried and
use Bajaj two wheelers.In most of the cases, the motivation comes from friends(44%) and
family(31%).People also search for instalment plans and finance schemes before purchasing a two
wheeler.

18. SKASC PROJET 2019
BBA DEPARTMENT | 18
Prof.S.Saravanan and Prof.N.Panchanatham(2009), they discussed the essentials for Promotion
of a product.The result shows that a customer considers all factors at the time of purchasing a two
wheelers, although majority of customers give importance to the brand image.This study also
describes the socio-economic factors which satisfy two wheelers customers and that the employees
and students crave for show room services.
Lisa R.Klein and Gary T.Ford(2003) It has been stated by the authors that the customers can do a
cost benefit analysis to choose a search strategy, i.e, what, when, how much and where to search,
but the customers do not search much,Which may be due to customers’ perception that the search
costs are quite high or that the value of the search is quite low.As a part of pre-purchase search for
perfect automobile as per their requirement, the customers in this digital age take the help of
internet, websites as well as social networking sites to do a comparative study of the different
models of different brands available in the market.Hence their opinion is also influenced by the
reviews of the people already possessing the motorcycle and using it.
Snelders & Schoormans (2000) Different techniques are suggested in the literature to find out
which attributes consumers use to judge products.
Simonson & Tversky(1992) Making a product from its computers by adding even a meaningless
attribute can increase consumers’ quality perception or can decrease perceived risk.
Dr.S.K.Sinha & Ajay Wagh(1993) examines that the India is one of the fastest growing
telecommunication markets of the twenty first century.The common man, artisans, agricultural
labours, vendors and workers from every walk of life are comfortably using the services provided
by telecom industries.The potential of capturing market segment will surely depend upon
understanding dynamics of customers’ preference.
According to Lewis & Boom(2000) service quality is considered as a measure of how well the
service delivered matches customers’ expectation on providing a better service than the customer
expect organisational brand promotional strategies should be based on developing innovative offers

19. SKASC PROJET 2019

& products, developing cost friendly value driven packages and tariffs, offering quality services
after sales services & ability to make calls without getting cut off & also to provide cheaper cost of
calls to other networks.
Dr.C.Annandan & M.Prasanna Mohan raj & Mr.S.Madhu(2004) examined the new mantra of
all FMCG giants is;To get rich, sell to the rural,.So they have started marketing programs to explore
the untapped segment of rural markets.As far as FMCG is concerned, the market penetration and
consumption in rural areas is low so there is an opportunity for marketers to utilise the market
effectively.Another key positive aspect is the current government focuses on rural
areas.Understanding the rural customers,Inadequate data rural markets Reaching of products or
services to 6.4lakhs villages for poor infrastructure facility.
Rachel Dardis, HoracioSoberon-Ferrer(2012) investigated the consumer decision making is
multinational, that is consumer choices are not base on a single product attributes, instead
consumers view products as bundles of attributesProduct attribute(automobile attributes) as well
household characteristics.In both instances, the higher the value of the cost index or the Trouble
Index,the more unsatisfactory the car is relative to other cars.
Dr.S.K.Sinha & Ajay Wag(2014) examined that India is one of the fastest growing
telecommunication markets of the twenty first century.The common man,artisans,agricultural
labours, vendors and workers from every walk of life are comfortable using the services provided
by telecom industries.The potentials of capturing market segment will surely depend upon
understanding dynamics of customers’ preference.

BBA DEPARTMENT | 48
From the study it is concluded that consumer satisfaction play a major role in our day to day life.
Consumer satisfaction has become a necessity. Now-a-days one finds it hard to survive without
them.TVS Motor cycle is one of the leading motor cycle providers and it should also concentrate on
the research and development in the country itself so as to fulfil the demands of the local residents
in the desired manner. As rapid socio-economic changes sweep across India, the country is
witnessing the creation of many new markets and a further expansion of the existing ones. The
Indian motor cycle industry has witnessed a considerable change in the past couple of years.
Changing life styles with access to disposable incomes, easy finance options and a surge in
advertising has been instrumental in bringing about a sea change in the consumer behaviour
pattern.TVS Motor cycle also need to modify their advertising strategies in order to educate the
target audience about the product.
According to a study conducted by ITWO on the Indian motor cycle industry, a shift in
consumer preferences towards higher ends, technologically advanced branded products and new
bikes has been quiet discern able. This shift can be explained by narrowing differentials between
the prices of branded and new upcoming bikes added with the high quality of after sales service
provided by the branded players
