This document summarizes a report on Indian Oil Corporation's XTRAPOWER Fleet Card loyalty program. The program aims to build loyalty among existing and new customers. Key features of the XTRAPOWER card include rewards points earned on fuel purchases, cash loading, online PIN access, fuel redemption, insurance benefits for owners and drivers, and prepaid/credit payment options. The report finds that while customers appreciate the program, more promotion and awareness is needed. It recommends expanding retail coverage, adding an SMS balance check, and improving parking at outlets to further increase customer loyalty and satisfaction.
Across the marketing ecosystem, data fuels every interaction. How do you tie it all together? In this presentation, I reviewed the value exchange between people and business and how to better enable personalization and analytics through the use of Data Onboarding and Big Data environments to not only improve brand experience but the bottom line as well.
The 2017 Exit Exam for Dual Degree students of the Master in Management at IE Business School consisted of a strategic company analysis of KiranaNow, an Amazon online subsidiary launched as a hyperlocal platform for B2C grocery delivery in India. My group developed a written report as well as the following presentation, which provides an analysis of the Indian online grocery market and recommends a future strategy for KiranaNow. The vast potential of the Indian market, which is set to grow extensively and is yet to experience the grand transition to online retail, urged Amazon to venture into the online grocery market and gain a first-mover advantage. The use of technical, strategical and industrial analyses, including PESTEL, SWOT and Porter Five Forces will provide the basis to suggest three potential strategies for KiranaNow’s success in the future. Of which the best alternative is to cease business with Kirana stores and venture through AmazonNow smartphone application into partnerships with continuously hyperlocal, yet more established food retailers. The strategy recommendation includes a revised business model featuring financial, operational and marketing forecasts as well as implementation strategies. During the time, the government blockade of foreign direct investment limited Amazon from launching an inventory-led B2C model, yet forecasts strongly implied that this ban would be lifted. As soon as this takes effect, we propose Amazon to venture mission towards such model, similar to Amazon Fresh in the United States, in which Amazon gains full control of operations and profit.

Pune Metro plan & 4 FSI proposal - Presentation on Issues & Impacts (Sept 201...Prashant Inamdar
We are not against Metro as a mode of mass transport. Why Pune Metro project has become a matter of great concern is because despite serious issues, DMRC’s Pune Metro DPR was blindly approved by Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) without any independent study, transparency and public consultations. Subsequently PMC has also approved a proposal to grant 4 FSI in the Metro influence zone of 500 mtr on either side of Metro corridor. It is necessary that Citizens should have information about the Metro and 4 FSI plans so that they can form own opinion regarding whether they would want these plans to be implemented.
This presentation giving basic information about the Metro & 4 FSI plans and related issues & impacts has been prepared in a citizen friendly language & format for public information and awareness. (Updated in September 2014).

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

1. A Report on Marketing of Indian Oil’s Loyalty
Program- XTRAPOWER FLEET CARD
Santanu Roy
Student, Department of Management, University of North Bengal
Introduction:
ustomers are the ever strong asset of every organization. In the present era most of
the organizations are customer centric. The products or services are provided
according to the customer preference.
As per as the present scenario there exists intense competition between the several
organizations, so it becomes very necessary to maintain a strong customer relationship to
survive and grow in the market. The new customers as well as the existing customers form
the demand and supply base of any organization. It becomes very necessary to retain loyal
customers. And also the cost of creating a new customer base is more than retaining
existing loyal customers.
Loyal customers are important because they provide the consistency of business. If
any organization is able to create the “feel good factor” for the existing loyal customers then
automatically the customer base will be improved and new customers will be knocking for
deal.
With increasing oil prices and huge competition the oil companies are implementing
different strategies to strengthen the customer base and improve the business policy. Indian
Oil Corporation is also developing new ideas for succeeding in the competition. To retain the
existing loyal customers, many new initiatives have been adopted by I.O.C.L. One such big
idea is XTRA POWER FLEET CARD LOYALTY PROGRAM.
During this project we have been assigned to IOCL Retail Outlets as well as Private
Outlets which are having XTRA POWER facility, to market the XTRA POWER LOYALTY CARD
to the existing IOCL customers as well as new potential customers and at the same time to
obtain customers’ feedbacks and suggestions about the Loyalty Program. We have also
visited many other places like Truck Terminuses, Road side dhabas, Weigh Bridges, Check
posts etc. for marketing the Loyalty Card.
OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT
The major objectives of the project are:
To study the loyalty relation between the customers and the organization.
To study the benefits provided by IOCL to their loyal customers.
To collect customer feedback and suggestions about the XTRA POWER Loyalty
Program.
To study the comparative analysis between the loyalty card benefits of other oil
companies.
C
2. To check our theoretical knowledge with comparison to the practical market
situation.
IOCL MAJOR OBJECTIVS
To serve the national interests in oil and related sectors in accordance and consistent
with Government policies.
To ensure maintenance of continuous and smooth supplies of petroleum products
by the way of crude oil refining, transportation and marketing activities.
To provide appropriate assistance to consumers to conserve and use petroleum
products efficiently.
To create a strong research & development base in refinery processes, product
formulations, pipeline transportation and alternative fuels.
To further enhance marketing infrastructure.
LOYALTY PROGRAM
Loyalty programs are structured marketing efforts that reward, and therefore encourage
loyal buying behaviour – the behaviour which is potentially beneficial for the organizations.
Earning customer loyalty goes beyond gaining customer satisfaction. Loyal
customers evangelize the brand by sharing their satisfactory experience with their
surroundings.
The organizations, in terms of Loyalty Program, may offer benefits in a number of
different ways. Many loyalty programs offer a sustained discount for a period of time (e.g.
10% for 1 year) or a onetime discount with certain criteria (e.g. 10% on a single purchase of
Rs. 10000). Many offers reward points which may be redeemed for products which may or
may not be directly related to business.
Loyalty cards are the most common form of loyalty programs found throughout the
world today. Some of the first loyalty programs instituted by airlines were in the 1970s in
the form of frequent flyer miles. In those loyalty programs, one accrues points by flying on
the airline and then redeems the points into tickets, upgrades, or even third-party benefits.
Loyalty programs have gained popularity immensely from the time when the
organizations became customer centric. Now a days Organizations’ thinking is that the
customers’ “feel good factor” is the most valuable wealth for any organization and for this
reason the customers are gaining special treatments in the form of loyalty programs.
An Integral part
The immense competition is making the loyalty programs an integral program of business of
day to day functioning of petro-retailing. Right now many such loyalty programs are run by
the petro-retailers like XTRAPOWER (IOCL), EXTRAREWARDS (IOCL), SMART FLEET (BPCL),
PETRO CARD (BPCL), and DRIVE TRACK (HPCL). However, these programs are mainly
focused at the bulk consumers. But the small consumers are being also provided these types
of facilities.
3. XTRA POWER FLEET CARD LOYALTY PROGRAM
IOCL’s XTRAPOWER Fleet Card program is a most sound step towards building the loyalty
among the existing customers and creating a new pool of customers.
XTRAPOWER Fleet Card program is a complete smart card-based fleet management
solution for fleet operators and corporate for cashless purchase of fuel and lubricants from
designated retail outlets through flexible pre-paid and credit facilities.
The fleet card also offers an exciting rewards program and unique benefits like
personal accident insurance cover and vehicle tracking facilities.
In just under two years of its launch, it has emerged as the largest fleet card in the
country with the widest retail outlet coverage.
Any business entity owning or operating a vehicle fleet can become a member of the
XTRAPOWER fleet card program at a nominal annual charge. Each fleet owner is issued a
Fleet Control Card and vehicle-specific Fleet Cards for every vehicle enrolled under the
program.
For enhanced security, the fleet card transactions are authorised through a unique
Personal Identification Number (PIN).
Moreover, the card can help track each vehicle's movement across remote corners
of the country, leading to an improvement in vehicle utilisation and route compliance.
XTRAPOWER is also backed by IndianOil's vast infrastructure network and web-based
support services.

FINDINGS
Most of the existing customers were very supporting and interesting. They have a
very strong will for IOCL.
Most of the customers who showed interest were ready to go for XTRAPOWER Fleet
Card or to continue the service actively.
Initially a large number of potential customers were frightened of giving the copies
of their vehicles’ R.C. Book. It was for the probable chance of misuse of the
documents. But later most of them were convinced.
Making of new XTRAPOWER Fleet Cards were not so difficult. The customers were
being well understood by us and were ready to make new cards.
A widely visible range of potential customers were not well aware about IndianOil’s
XTRAPOWER Fleet Card Loyalty Program. It is due to lack of effective promotion in
this region.
Most of the existing Fleet Card Users suggested IOCL for implementing the SMS
Balance Enquiry Service.
Some of the customers facing technical difficulties while using the cards. But the
Outlet staffs are managing this type of problems as much as possible.
IOCL has a huge number of Private Retail Outlets compared to the Company Owned
Retail Outlets, so it is somehow lowering the customer base.
IOCL is losing some portion of the potential customers for providing fewer parking
spaces to the fleet operators by the Private Retail Outlets.
Some of the fleet owners/operators suggested for updating the website of
XTRAPOWER on a regular basis.
The customers suggested for implementing XTRAPOWER Control System in the retail
outlets as much as possible. This will result in increased customer pool and customer
satisfaction.
5. CONCLUSION
XTRAPOWER is a sound step of IOCL towards building loyalty among the existing customers.
Loyalty program works effectively when the customer is emotionally attached with the
brand.
The best way to keep customers
loyal is to provide quality product or service that provides good value for money. Branding
alone will not be completely able to make the customers loyal. But backing up a quality
product or service with branding and loyalty programs will develop quicker.
Offers and loyalty schemes can
increase loyalty, but they are no substitute for (and will not work without) a quality product,
good customer service, and friendly customer relationships.
IOCL should have to promote
XTRAPOWER Fleet Card Loyalty Program in such a strategic way, so that the Program
reaches to the every corner of the country. For this to happen IOCL should give more effort
in the promotional and marketing activities of XTRAPOWER. All these will result in
tremendous success of the Loyalty Program.
Also the customers should be
involved in the program by constant communication to understand the extreme details and
benefits of the program.
RECOMMENDATIONS
A huge number of customers are not aware regarding the XTRAPOWER Fleet Card
Loyalty Program and its features. More promotional and marketing practices are
necessary.
There remains a huge unexplored market for implementing the Loyalty Program. So
continuous Market Study and Analysis is required.
There remains a great requirement of Balance Check Facility through SMS. So IOCL
should introduce the service as soon as possible.
Customers prefer to fill oil from Company Owned Retail Outlets compared to the
Private Retail Outlets. So if it is possible to establish more Company Retail Outlets,
then IOCL should go on.
The long vehicle staffs require proper Parking Places in the Retail Outlets. IOCL
should try to provide flexible parking places to the vehicle staffs for the purpose of
increasing customer loyalty and satisfaction.
XTRAPOWER Fleet Card Swiping Kits should be installed in maximum number of
Retail Outlets and the swiping machines should be properly maintained.
