HISTORY:-

Aditya Birla Group traces its origin back from the tinyvillage of Pilani in the Rajasthan desert, where Late Shri

seth Shiv Narayan Birla started cotton-trading

operations in 1957. Then one visionary- Late Shri G.D

Birla set up Indias first integrated aluminium

manufacturing unit at Renukoot, in 1962, backed by

captive power plant at Renusagar in 1967.

INTRODUCTION:-

An industry leader in aluminium and copper, Hindalco

Industries Limited, the metals flagship company of the

Aditya Birla Group is the world's largest aluminium

rolling company and one of the biggest producers of

primary aluminium in Asia. Its copper smelter is the

worlds largest custom smelter at a single location.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

Profile of Aluminium Industry In India

The aluminium industries in India are highlyconcentrated, with just five plants accounting for the

entire production capacity of 7, 02,000 tonnes per

annum.

The per capita consumption of aluminium in India is

only 0.5kg. as against 25kg in USA, 19kg in JAPAN and

10kg in EUROPE. Even the worlds average per capital

consumption is about 10 times of that in India. The

reason of low consumption in the country could be that

consumption pattern of aluminium in India is vastly

different from that of developed countries.

The demand of aluminium is expected to grow about

9% per annum from present consumption levels. This

sector is going through a consolidation phase andexisting producers are in process of enhancing their

production capacity so that demand supply gap

expected in future is bridged. However, in India is a net

exported of alumina and aluminium metal at present.

environment.2. CRM :- Helps in making a customer loyal. Here

Hindalco has a unique CRM where there is a

website where the customer and the concerned

selling person sits together online and if the

knowing the managerial performance and the

ability of the concerned sales executive.

market scenario.

Observation :-

Industrial marketing is done with proper strategy.

A person needs to have proper market

knowledge and the present situation as it will him

in building strong relationship with the customer

competitors as comparison to his product.

A marketing manager needs to make regular

visits to his client list i.e, the concerned


16/17

industries as they may have various issues and it

will be very much beneficial for both of them i.e,

for the Buyer as well as Seller for the futureprofessional relationship.

Learnings and Findings:-

It has been seen that regular visit to the customer

is necessary as it helps in finding the hidden needs

of the customer.

Regular visits also helps a person in knowing the

customer profile in a better manner.

Feedback is very much necessary as from it we will

know that Whether the customer is satisfied with

the Product or not.

If not then what are corrective measures which

should be undertaken by the company to improve

its product.

Price Negotiation should be done with propermarket knowledge and strategy. So a marketing

manager must have current market information.

Regular visit to the customer is also necessary for

maintaining the balance between Demand and

Supply.


17/17

If any misunderstanding is present there in

between Buyer and Seller then in that case that

can be solved by the mutual understanding by

sitting together.
