5. Research Objectives
After a brainstorming session with the group members and the
project guide, the following are the objectives of the project:
• To study the consumer decision making process for casual
wears in the age group of 15-25 years in Delhi and NCR
region.
• To study the various factors influencing purchase decisions
for the casual wear.

6. Introduction
Casual wear is considered to be the inevitable part of our lives. These
are clothes which help us feel comfortable, in sync with the times and
above all help us to feel at home. The biggest advantage of wearing a
casual is the psychological effect that erases off the strict rules and
discipline of the formal wear and its boundaries. Be it Indian, western
or indo-western casual wears come in many shapes, sizes, designs
and with loads of fun. This perhaps is the reason why the students on
the verge of going to college, we interviewed seemed so excited
about the idea of going to college just because they will be able to
wear whatever they want! And for that matter this means casual
wear. Casual wear today perhaps are synonymous with unlimited fun,
frolics and hungamas.
Casual wear forms an integral part of our lives. There is bigger
picture showing the serious business behind the casual wears. The
casual wear business in India is more than $5000 million per year.
This is the data for the organized branded casual wear and does not
include the blooming businesses of the non-branded casual wear in
the markets like Sarojini Nagar, Lajpat Nagar, Chandini Chowk etc.
as per a rough estimate only Chandini Chowk makes a whopping
business of few hundred crores daily by selling suits only, a type of
Indian casual wear for ladies.
Branded ready-to-wear (RTW) is the latest craze not just among
consumers, but textiles and fabrics majors. Despite severe
competition from the highly fragmented industry — whose size is
6
7. anywhere between Rs 15,000 crore to Rs 20,000 crore — the annual
growth rate of over 20 per cent with high visibility and impressive
margins is what has attracted textiles majors like Century Textiles,
Indian Rayon, Raymonds, Bombay Dyeing among others to this
industry.
Interestingly, cashing in on the popular men’s RTW, it is the RTW for
women which are the latest trend that’s being used to expand the
market further. And the lead in ladies RTW has been taken by Indian
Rayon which recently launched its maiden ‘Allen Solly — Ladies
Wear’ range of products. This important shift in marketing strategy
would soon be followed even by Century Textiles. Raymonds last
year already launched the pret line for women under the label of BE
which is available in upmarkets of both New Delhi and Mumbai.
The whole growth strategy is to acquire and introduce newer ranges
like ladies RTW, casual wear, sports wear etc.
The textile majors used the acquisition route to enter the apparel
business. Raymonds recently acquired ColorPlus for entering the
casual wear thereby adding to its own existing formal wear under the
names of Parx, Raymonds, and Park Avenue. Indian Rayon used this
strategy by taking over the garments division of Madura Coates thus
entering the apparel business with the prestigious Allen Solly, Van
Heusen, Louis Phillpe and Peter England range of formal mens wear,
while Bombay Dyeing too took over Proline to enter the sports wear
while adding to its existing formal mens wear under Vivaldi range.
7
8. Analysts said this trend would continue in future with more such
acquisitions of successful brands (in the unorganised sector) being
taken over by successful players. With such a strategy, the company
gets a ready market captured by the existing brand while also helping
the company to avoid critical brand-building activities, they said.
Further, analysts attributed this trend as a logical move towards
building the value chain to their own textiles manufacturing. This burst
of RTW is also due to the growing potential that these companies see
in the growing working population women besides men, leading to
rising income levels, due to more disposable income.
Raymonds president Nabankur Gupta said, “Raymonds wants to
consolidate and expand its existing range of apparel brands and we
are open to the idea of takeovers and acquisition in this sphere.”
Besides, the textile companies are leveraging the existing distribution
and retailing network of the fabrics market available to them, this will
help them in introducing products. According to Mr Gupta,
“Raymonds boasts of an extensive retail network of over 13,000
retailers in over 400 town and cities, in India and abroad.”
However, the smaller players do not feel the threat of cannibalisation
yet they feel that target consumer for them is different. Cambridge
Enterprises partner Narendra Bhatia said, “The Cambridge brand of
meanswear is positioned for mass market and companies like
Raymonds are targeting the middle and the upper class customers.”
8
9. Indian Rayon director Vikram Rao said, “We are targeting the middle
and higher end of the market only by finely differentiating the product
price. However, we are not targeting the mass market since our
economics is not met by pricing the products for that segment.
Indian Rayon’s strategy, said Mr Rao, is to introduce whole range of
not just RTW but also accessories, leatherwear and other related
products.
Analysts said these and other players in the segment would try and
diversify in various segments of apparels so that they can tap all
segments of the market for overall growth.
However, as compared to the global RTW market, estimated at
around $183 billion India’s RTW is just in a nascent stage where
players hope to expand faster than their competitors.
Besides, players in the domestic apparel industry felt that there is no
fear of foreign competition in their segment as costs of introducing
apparel in India will be very expensive for these players. Mr Vikram
Rao said, “We expect foreign players to come in maybe in 3-5 years
but they are most likely to adopt the retail outlet to offer their
products.”
This trend will be on the increase as the companies are looking at
growth potential from each and every segment of apparel. However,
the companies have to face tremendous competition from the
unorganised sector as well as smaller players as well.
9
10. Thus, to differentiate from the clutter of the mass market segment the
companies have also planned a strategy of standardising the
products.
For this, the companies are introducing standard sizes to body
shapes like the newly introduced Allen Solly range for women comes
in comfort, regular, straight and trim fits. The companies are
upgrading the consumers by bringing in this segment said analysts.
As compared to the global industry which is nearly of $183 billion, the
domestic readymade industry is still in a nascent stage. The structure
of the readymade industry in India is complex as much as it is
diverse. It is highly fragmented and a large part of it is unorganised.
However, trend forecasters said that these companies would get into
the entire value chain by entering into kids wear, sports wear etc. The
companies, which do not manufacture fabrics for sportswear and kids
wear, may start doing so and enter this segment. Also, the
companies would keep introducing newer varieties, styles, and
collection in different seasons and for different occasion to keep the
consumers attracted and get a bigger slice of the pie.
Pantaloon Fashions managing director Kishore Biyani said, “The
trend is shifting more from tailored clothes to readymade garments,
due to easy availability and affordable prices.”
The companies are offering clothes at a very affordable price,
besides, the convenience of picking clothes off the rack gives the
10
11. customer a certain surety of look and the finish, which is missing in
the tailormade clothes.”
The pricing is done keeping in mind the perceptible value of the
product, the clothes more often than not are priced at around the
tailored wear’, added Mr Biyani.
A number of brands like ColorPlus, Provogue, Tamarind have
established a foothold in the ready-to-wear market. The branded
apparel market in India is dotted with numerous such brands
marketed by umpteen players. What separates one from the other is
the USP that each one attempts to create to attract customers to their
stores. Color of the garment is a key differentiator, while design,
fabric and finish are the others.
The research basis of this report is Casual wear. Casual wear is
defined as the informal attire which people wear to workplaces on
weekends, students wear other than school, etc. all in all on one hand
the attire in which people feel free and on the other the attire which
can not be worn for a formal meeting, get together, dinner or any
such occasion.
We have divided the range of casual wear into the following classes:
- Jeans
- Skirts
- Capris
- Jackets
11
12. - T-Shirts
- Sandoz
- Suit (for girls)
- Shorts
- Three-fourths
- Bermudas
- Knickers
- Sports wear
- Cargos
- Chinos
- Six pockets
- Parallel
The report studies in the succeeding pages studies what exactly
does a customer feels while going to purchase a casual wear,
why does customer buys, does he(she) only for him(her)self, does
he gather information before purchasing a casual wear and if yes
why so and so many similar things. All this has helped us
understand the consumer decision making process for a casual
starting from the need recognition till the disposing off the product.
This report also studies the influence of the environmental and
personal factors while purchasing the product.

13. The Current Market Scenario
The current market scenario of the casual wear portrays a picture of
highly competitive, fast moving market comprising of highly
demanding, distinguishing and even highly discriminating customers.
The fast moving customers who in turn are influenced by even fater
moving fashion trends all over the world characterize the market. The
accessibility of information, increasing purchasing power, changing
lifestyles and social setups and most importantly the changing values
are the drivers of this casual wear market.
This market many a times seems to be highly confused,
disintegrated and unorganized and suddenly it seems to be a highly
profitable place for the companies and fashion houses all over the
world and as a result reputed fashion houses like Chanel, Versache,
Louis Vouitton, Christian Dior etc. are a part of the band wagon
joining the great India shining ride. And many more brands of such
repute are preparing to join the same very soon.
Coming back to India the sudden surge in the fashion industry
with two big events lined (after the infamous break up of lakme with
India fashion week) has definitely helped the designers to reap the
opportunities lined up. Bollywood has also emerged as a big platform
for these designers to showcase their latest collection to the masses
and reach them in no times. The recent waves of fashion trends can
be quoted as examples hit movies like Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gam, Kal
Ho Na Ho, Lakshya, Salam Namaste etc have set up fashion trends
and as a result the markets are flooded with skirts, from boot cuts to
13
14. straight fit jeans, head gears, suits in latest indo western styles and
so on. The movies in India have also motivated some big fashion
houses like DKNY(with Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gam) to enter into Indian
markets.
Despite all the rosy picture portrayed so far the reality is hard hitting.
The market in reality is brutal and un forgiving. It’s a place where
winning is the sole criteria of survival that too in a market which
shows great colors in terms of big and improving purchasing power
and changing lifestyles but all this statistics are limited to the realms
of the big metros. The wave of branded casual wear and standard
has not yet reached the outskirts of India. Recently released Forbes
World’s richest shows that out of the 102 new entrants of the club
“riche rich” 11 are Indians that means 1 out of every 10 new
billionaires joining the Forbes list is an Indian. This can naturally be
the dream market to launch the product with a bang. However this
dream is turning sour for many of the foreign brands United Colors Of
Benetton, Lacoste etc can be cited as example. United Colors of
Benetton has already packed up its operations in India. The market is
not as easy to conquer as it seems to be. Price is a criteria but not
the sole, size does matter, stores also, then relationships with the
“purane wale bhaiyya” comes in picture, and above all the class,
income levels and perceptions. The recent studies show that in India
the emerging middle class is the most spendthrift of all earning
between Rs. 200000-Rs.500000 per annum, families where both the
parents are working with one or two kids to look after. This is the
14
15. class that spends the most expecting to be counted in the upper
classes. However, the most heart breaking class is the class earning
between Rs. 500000-Rs.1000000 per annum and above it. This is the
class that spends the less but is instrumental in bringing the world
class labels to the country.

RMG Industry : Exports
RMG an export oriented industry
o These exports are either done by units on their own or
through export houses
o India’s RMG exports are around Rs. 22650 crs US $ 5267
mln), as against the global demand of over Rs. 688,000 crs. (US $
160,000 millions)In the world market, India’s share (3%);China (15%),
Hongkong (13%) and Italy (8%); other competitors - Pakistan,
Indonesia, Thailand, Egypt
o Labour cost in India is very cheap; Per hour rates :India :
US $ 0.72; Hong Kong - US$ 3.05, Japan - US$ 13.96, Singapore -
US$ 2.83
o Focus on exports aided by governmental policies;the
latest textile policy announced in Nov ‘99 encourages units to enter
non-quota markets.
Indian exports are mainly to quota countries (> 60%) - USA (> 20%) ,
Germany, UK, France, Canada Non-Quota markets : CIS, Gulf,
Japan,Switzerland and Australia
19
20. State-wise share of exports
Readymade Garments : WTO Implications
• Upto 1995, textile trade regulated by Multi Fibre Agreement
(MFA) - enabled importing countries(mainly Western) to impose
quota restrictions on exports from developing countries
• Quotas imposed on selective basis - India and Pakistan
clubbed together with lower quota, Srilanka marginally higher
quota, Bangladesh with no quota and so on
• With the formation of World Trade (WTO) in January 1995,
MFA replaced by Agreement on Textiles and clothing (ATC);
MFA to be phased out over a 10-year period from 1995
• Scope for increased market access during the transition period
of 10 - years for products under quota system
• Market size of quota-imposing countries large - exports could
become more competitive.
• Indian exporters stand to gain with the opening up of markets
hitherto restricted.

rayon and insistence on usage of vegetable dyes have
impacted exports
• Raw material prices: Fluctuation in cotton prices (a commodity
product) has affected cost structures
Demand Drivers
• Rise in disposable income - burgeoning of middle class
• Fashion consciousness; etiquette, aesthetic appeal
• Convenience - purchase : available off the shelf
• Influence of western styles - media driven
• Export markets : Western countries looking to developing
countries to source cheaper products
Future
• The future for blended garments appear to be bright at around
9% annually.Cotton garments growth to stagnate. WTO
implications could positively impact industry in the long run
24
25. • Brand buy-outs - entry route for new and consolidation for
existing players
Summing up An export-oriented sector-prospects for exports
improving, domestic market slowly opening up.

26. Previous Studies On The Topic
This is the study done by KSA Technopak for the branded
and non branded wear. Some facts of the study are as
following:
• The top 40 cities of India account for almost 50% of Sec A&B
population
• Sec A&B contribute almost 98% to the branded segment
• The largest segment for clothing is the 16-35 age group (brand
name and quality are top priority)
• Branded segment is growing at 18-25% annually from 1998
onwards (the industry growth rate is only 5%)
• Branded wear accounts for more than 21% of the apparel
industry (around Rs 9,000 crore
-KSA Technopak
Our analysis of these figures:
Now, for what these figures mean. Simply that the Indian consumer
is showing an increasing fascination for branded wear. The reasons
are clear - one, the increased disposable income of Indian
households and two, the fast paced changes in the ready-to-wear
industry. Today's customers are fussier than ever before - they are
more aware of current trends, are totally in sync with the latest in
fashion and demand the best products as well as service at an
26
27. affordable price. And manufacturers and retailers are going all out to
keep them happy. Definitely, the ready-to-wear business is in vogue.
From 'mom-and-pop' shops to organised retail, from unbranded
merchandise to labels, from off-the-street quality to value for money,
the ready-to-wear sector is witnessing an upheaval. At the forefront of
all these changes are the highly versatile small brands. With big
brands from textile companies growing weary in adapting to the fast-
paced changing scenario in the ready-to-wear industry, it's the small
brands, including private labels that are completely transforming the
way men, women and children dress.
A whole bunch of players have plunged into this branded ready-to-
wear business. Easy to see why. According to current KSA
Technopak reports, the branded ready-to-wear segment contributes
only 21% to the apparel sector. And the present total market size of
the ready-to-wear segment is pegged at around Rs 40,000 - 45,000
crore.
That's lucrative indeed and there still is a lot of space for all to grow
and grow big. And once the supply chain constraints have been
eased, real estate markets made more organised and tax structure
rationalised, this sector will become quite irresistible. Says Arvind
Singhal, MD, KSA Technopak, "Ready-to-wear segment will be the
key driver in the textile industry in the next five years."

28. Research Design
The research design is the most important step in producing the
results in the form of usable conclusions. A research design is the
detailed blueprint used to guide a research study towards its
objective. The process of designing this research project has involved
various interrelated and interdependent steps. The choice of
information type, its gathering, analysis and interpretation of the
results were determined on the basis of this research design.
Phase 1 Preliminary Planning Stage
The research in question is basically a mix of the three types of
research starting with the exploratory research to define the problem
(objectives and premises) , then moving to the descriptive research
where the sample characteristics were explore and defined finally
moving to the most important type of the research design that is to
the casual research where the cause and effect relationship between
the various variables we found important during the first two phases
of the research process.
Step 1.Type Of Research.-Exploratory
In the first phase the following research framework was designed
after long brainstorming sessions within the group, with the project
guide and holding discussions with the potential respondents.
28
29. In the disruptive, discontinuous markets of contemporary and future
businesses environments, a “roadmap” of how consumers make
purchase decision is much more reliable than a set of “directions”.
The consumer decision process (CDP) model, a simplified version of
which is shown in the succeeding figure.
29
31. It represents a roadmap of consumers’ minds that marketers and
managers can use to help guide product mix, communication and
sales strategies. The model captures the activities that occur when
decisions are made in a schematic format and shows how different
internal and external forces interact and affect how consumers think,
evaluate and act.
As the model shows, consumers typically go through seven major
stages when making decisions: need recognition, search for
information, pre-purchase evaluation, purchase, consumption, post-
consumption evaluation and divestment. Though marketing textbooks
and consumer researchers sometimes employ slightly different
terminology for each of these seven stages and how various factors
influence each stage of consumers’ decisions. By understanding the
stages in the consumer decision-making roadmap, marketers can
discover why people are or are not buying products and what to do to
get them to buy more or from a specific supplier.
Stage 1 (Need Recognition):
31
32. The starting point of any purchase decision is a customer need. Need
recognition occurs when an individual senses a difference between what he or
she perceives to be the ideal versus the actual state of affairs. Consumers buy
things when they believe a product’s ability to solve a problem is worth more than
the cost of buying it, thereby, making recognition of an unmet need in the first
step. In addition to needs, consumers also have desires. While marketers strive
hard to fulfill desires, they must keep costs in mind with what their target markets
can afford. Consumers are willing to sacrifice some of their desires for affordable
products that meet their needs.
Firms sometimes make the mistake of developing new products based on
what they are able to manufacture or sell rather than based on what
consumers want to buy. Products and services that don’t solve consumers
problems fail no matter how dazzling the technology or how much is spent on
advertising aimed at convincing consumers to buy them.
Retailers and manufacturers must monitor consumer trends because as
consumers change, so do their problems and needs. Some influences most
likely to alter the way consumers look at problems and the ways to solve them
are family, values, health, age, income and reference groups.
Stage 2 (Search for Information):
Once the need recognition occurs, consumers begin searching for information
and solutions to satisfy their unmet needs. The search may be internal, retrieving
knowledge from memory or perhaps genetic tendencies, or it may be external,
collecting information from peers, family and the marketplace. Sometimes
consumers search passively by simply becoming perceptive to information
around them, whereas at other times they engage in active search behavior,
such as researching consumer publications, paying attention to ads, searching
the Internet or venturing into shopping malls and other retail outlets.
32
33. The length and depth of search is determined by variables such as
personality, social class, income size of the purchase, past experiences, prior
brand perceptions and customer satisfaction. When consumers are happy
with the current brand, they may repurchase the brand and use it again and
again over a period of time whereas if the consumers are unhappy with
current products or brands, the search expands to include other alternatives.
Stage 3 (Pre - purchase Evaluation of Alternatives):
The next stage of the consumer decision process is evaluating alternative option
identified during the search process. In this stage consumer seeks answers to
questions such as: “What are my option and which is the best?” Consumer
compare what they know about different products and brands with what they
consider most important and begin to narrow the field of alternatives before they
finally resolve to buy one of them.
Consumers use new or pre-existing evaluation stored in memory to select
products, service, brands and stores that will most likely result their
satisfaction with the purchase and consumption. But consumers must also
evaluate where they are going to purchase the desired product and they
apply relevant criteria to the retail outlets from which they buy. Consumer
often monitor attributes such as quantity, size,, quality and price: further
changes in these attributes can affect their brand and product choices.
Stage 4 (Purchase):
The next stage of consumer decision process is purchase. After deciding
whether or not to purchase consumer move through two phases. In first phase
the consumer chooses one retailer over the other retailer. The second phase
involves in-store choices, influence by sales person, product display, electronic
media and point of purchase (POP) advertising. A consumer might move through
33
34. the first three stages of the decision process according to plan and intend to
purchase a particular product or brand. But consumers sometimes buy
something quite different from what they intend or opt not to buy at all because of
what happens during the purchase or choice stage. A consumer may prefer one
retailer but choose another because of a sale or promotional event at a
competitors store, hours of operation, location, or traffic flow problems. The
consumer may talk with the sales man who changes his/her decision.
Stage 5 (Consumption):
After the purchase is made and the consumer takes possession of the product,
consumption can occur – the point at which consumer uses the product.
Consumption can either occur immediately or be delayed. This requires
consumer to warehouse products in freezers or on the pantry shelves.
Consumers use products also effects how satisfied they are with the purchases
and how likely they are to buy that particular product or brand in the future. Not
only does it appeal to consumption of safety but it also highlights the hedonic
benefit of consumption.
Stage 6 (Post-Consumption Evaluation):
The next stage of consumer decision-making process is post-consumption
evaluation in which consumer experiences a sense of either satisfaction or
dissatisfaction. Satisfaction occurs when the consumer expectations are matched
by perceived performance. When experiences and performances fall short of
expectation, dissatisfaction occurs. If consumer is highly satisfied, subsequent
purchase decision becomes shorter. The most important determinant of
satisfaction is consumption: how consumer uses the product. The product might
be good but if the consumer does not use it properly dissatisfaction may creep in.
Even if the product works well, consumers often “second guess” their purchase
decision specially with big-ticket item causing them to ask – have I made a good
34
35. decision. These tactics confirm that customer are satisfied but more importantly
they provide information to consumers.
Stage 7 (Divestment):
It is the last stage in consumer decision model. Consumers have several options
including outright disposal, recycling or remarketing. He can choose to sell
(remarket) it to other consumers, trade it in/on another vehicle or take it to junk
yard. In this situation recycling and environmental concerns play a role in
consumer divestment method.
Stage 2-
The next phase constituted of the exploring and defining the characteristics of the
population. In this phase we defined the population as the people of the Delhi
and the NCR. In this way it was easy to draw a sample from this population and
to extrapolate the results over the population.
Phase 2 – Defining The Research Objective
In light of the above mentioned research framework following research objectives
were defined:
• To study the consumer decision making process for casual wears in
the age group of 15-25 years in Delhi and NCR region.
• To study the various factors influencing purchase decisions for the
casual wear.
Phase 3 – Research Design
35
36. Step 1 Choice of data and data collection method:
The data collected is purely primary in nature as
- no secondary data was available on this topic which could have been
used.
- Also no qualitative data collection method suited the nature of the
research topic.
- As a result, the final choice of data collection method was centered on
collecting the data of the quantitative through the survey method.
- Also, this type of the data collection method was suited to the specific
research objectives.
Step 2- research tactics
Measurement
Once the research project was chosen, research tactics was the next logical
step : the specifics of the measurements, the plan for choosing the sample,
and finally the methods of analyses were developed.
Measurement
The first logical step in this direction was to translate the research objective
into research requirements and then into the questions which were to be
answered by the potential respondents. For this the following research
requirements were framed
- Who purchases casual wear -The description (profiling) of the
population
- Why do people purchase- objective
- What do they purchase-branded or non branded casual wear
- From where do they purchase
- How often do they purchase-frequency of purchase
- Brand preferences as per demographic profile
- The factors considered before purchasing
- The factors affecting the choice and purchase of casual wear
36
37. - Does information play any role in deciding the purchase of casual wear
- Does choice of retail shop/mall/exclusive store play any role in
deciding the purchase.
- When do they purchase-occasion
- How do they purchase – mode of payment
For this purpose, a questionnaire was framed, a copy of which is attached as
an annexure.
See annexure 1
Step 2 The Sampling Plan
In the project, a random sample of 400 consumers was taken from different parts
of Delhi and NCR region. The Stratified Random sampling technique is used to
collect the sample and classify it. The whole population was divided into the age
groups of less than 15, between 15 to 20 and between 20 to 25 and sub divided
into the following strata based on their sex, profession and income levels.
Male
1. Age group-> 15 years students
In the income groups
- < Rs.100000
- Rs.100000-200000
- Rs.200000-500000
- Rs.500000-1000000
- >Rs.1000000
2. Age Group –between 15 To 20 years students
In the income groups
- < Rs.100000
- Rs.100000-200000
- Rs.200000-500000
37
38. - Rs.500000-1000000
- >Rs.1000000
3. Age Group – between 20 To 25 years professionals
In the income groups
- < Rs.100000
- Rs.100000-200000
- Rs.200000-500000
- Rs.500000-1000000
- >Rs.1000000
Female
1. Age group->15 years students
In the income groups
- < Rs.100000
- Rs.100000-200000
- Rs.200000-500000
- Rs.500000-1000000
- >Rs.1000000
2. Age Group –between 15 To 20 years students
In the income groups
- < Rs.100000
- Rs.100000-200000
- Rs.200000-500000
- Rs.500000-1000000
- >Rs.1000000
3. Age Group – between 20 To 25 years professionals and
housewives
In the income groups
- < Rs.100000
38
39. - Rs.100000-200000
- Rs.200000-500000
- Rs.500000-1000000
- >Rs.1000000
This type of sampling has helped us to analyse the properties of various strata of
the population and as a result of which little chance is left of ruling out of any
essential group being completely ruled out of the survey. This type of sampling
has balanced the uncertainty of random sampling against the bias of deliberate
selection.
Also this type of sampling was done to ensure greater accuracy as each stratum
consists of homogeneous variables.
Stratified random sampling attempts to approximate simple random sampling.
This method of stratified random sampling is developed for its precision,
economy and physical ease. The foundation of this sampling is for statistical
inferences, the process of making inferences about populations from
information contained in samples.
The sample was taken from the population in the age group of 15 to 25 years.
Phase 3 –Collection, Analysis and Interpretation Of
The Data
The data was collected over a period of 15 days from various parts of the NCR
viz, South Delhi, North Delhi, Central Delhi, New Delhi, Gurgaon, Noida etc. An
attempt was made to keep a balanced figure of all the parts however due to cost
and time factor this sample might not contain the perfect representation of the
various parts of the NCR. This can be taken as an unconscious sampling error.
Also, because of the same reasons the age groups, occupational and gender
bias may also have crept in.

40. The analysis and interpretation of data
The data was analysed using the SPSS (Statistical Program for Social Studies)
software.
The detailed discussion of the analysis and the interpretation of the data is
revealed in the following pages.
Scaling techniques:
Most of the questions in the questionnaire are designed to measure
attitudes of the population. Attitude is a psychological constructs, a
way of conceptualizing the intangible. As attitudes can not be really
observed or measured directly because their existence is inferred
from their consequences. On the other hand, people’s values and
beliefs may dictateor affect their purchasing decisions. Values and
belifs in retrospect are influenced by a person’s attitude; conversely,
values are the determinants of attitudes and belief involve evaluation.
Attitude measurement techniques are generally systematic methods
for abstracting the effective component of belief systems in orderto
generate an attitude score. Attitude are the essence of the “human
change agent”that all marketers strive to influence, but without the
right tools to effectively measure attitudes, attitudinal research has
little to offer. Keeping all this in mind the three related components of
attitudes were separated and measured separately. These are
1. A cognitive or knowledge component
2. a liking component and finally
3. an action component.
Out of all three the knowledge component was measured on a
nominal scale of Yes and No (Single item Scale), the liking
40
41. component was measured on multi point interval scale (Likert scale-
the Summated Scale) as the scores on the individual items were
summed to produce a total score for the respondent, also on the
Ratio Scale where the customer gave points out of 10 helped us to
compare this attitude component on an absolute scale.

42. Research Methodology and Analysis
of Data
The research follows a systematic research sequence based on the
research design. The following research methodology was used for
obtaining, classifying, analyzing and interpreting the various
information. The complete project worked under a systematic plan to
bring out the results in the present form. Most of the data and
information collected are from primary sources colleted by the survey
method using the questionnaire.
The data so collected was organized, analysed and interpreted using
the SPSS (Statistical Program for Social Studies) software. Various
statistical tools used to analyse the data are discussed in the
succeeding pages:
1. Frequencies of various variables.
2. Cross tabulations for establishing relationships among the
various variables.
3. Regression analysis to test whether or not two variables are
interrelated and if yes what is the nature of relationship
between them.
4. Testing of hypothesis using the chi-square test.

Conclusion
67
68. The various questions in the questionnaire have been analyzed one by one as
shown above. After thorough analysis of the data, it has been seen that amongst
the sample size of 400 individuals surveyed, 221 were Male (55.3%)
and 179 were Female (44.7%). In other words fairly equal number of male
and female individuals was surveyed so as to get a good review about the
perceptions regarding casual wear. In all 47.8% were students (191 no.) and
45.8% were professionals (183 no.), 50.5% were graduates (202 no.) and a mere
30.5% were post graduates (122 no.). Amongst the whole sample size, majority
of the individuals (40.3%) belonged to the family income of the bracket of Rs.2
lac to Rs.5 lac. It was also found that mostly individuals wear casuals
everyday i.e. 57% and a large number of people gather information
before purchasing. 59.8% of the sample size shop branded casuals
and a very large number (73.3%) say that they wear casuals
because they feel comfortable in casuals as compared to formals.
The questionnaire also had a question wherein the individual had to rank brands,
store, price, types of casual offered, etc. It was found that mostly people ranked
brand as number 1 followed by store, price range, range offered and types of
casual offered. The respective percentages were 12.5%, 14.5%, 16.8%, 16.8%
and 21.3%. This clearly shows that people are more inclined towards
the brand they purchase rather that the range offered by that
particular brand. Further it was noticed that individuals from the
sample size gather information mostly by means of advertisements
and movies which helps them to be more aware of the latest trends
and the on going fashion trend.
It is also seen that purchasing decision of an individual is affected by the advice
of the people in close proximity. The sample results show that advice from family
and friends play a major role in the purchasing decision of an individual. The
68
69. results show that 40.3% of the sample size consider advice of family members as
one of the key aspects before purchasing casuals and the advice from friends is
equally taken into consideration.
The survey also shows that brands like GAP, DKNY, UCB and
Tommy Hillfiger are not very famous amongst the sample size. This
is mainly because these brands are very costly and a large number
of competitors have entered the market bringing in more and more
value for money products. This has for sure resulted in the decline in sales
of the brands which were the best in the past. Nowadays the store, mall or the
retail outlet also plays a major role in the purchasing decision of the customer.
The location, sales promotion techniques, traffic flows, relations, ambience, etc
are the key factors related to the store. It was seen that 71.8% (287 no.) of
the sample size consider store as a major factor in deciding the
purchase of casuals.

Interpretation
Our analysis shows that men as per the general beliefs do shop less
for clothes however women are basically impulsive buyers, more
than 73 out of 179 (more than 40%) said that they are impulsive
buyers which means they purchase whenever they find time and of
course money. This definitely poses as an opportunity for the
marketers.

Interpretation
Our analysis shows that the income group 3 spends the most on
casual wear and has no as such preferences for the plastic money.
One of the reasons for this may be the fact that this class consists of
the newly formed knowledge workers who love to show off their
power of money on one hand and also want to play safe by keeping
the plastic money.
