PREFACE

This project report is an integrated part of the PGDM course in which the

student has to perform and it aims at providing a first hand experience of

the industry to the students. This practical experience helps the students to

view the real business world closely. Which is turn widely influences their

conceptions and perceptions about the corporate world.

In order to make students competent all the students are required to take a

real time project work in the PGDM furculum. Project work also helps to

understand but practicality goes on in the corporate world and correlate

the theoretical concept better which remains undiscovered in the

classrooms.

I was really fortunate for getting an opportunity to complete my summer

internship in a reputed well established company Tata motors.

I had make my discussions with my training guide and he assigned me the

project “Market research on heavy commercial vehicle”

Which is a important work of Tata motors regarding services and it

requires a lot of extensile study and market research together the

information. It provides us great deal of exposure and I really found the

practical work totally different from theoretical.

INTRODUCTION OF TATA GROUP

The story of Tata group of business unfolds with the birth of its founder Jamshed ji

Tata in the small town of Navasari in Gujarat in 1839. He breathed his last in 1904

in Germany. His parents were Nuseerwan ji and Jeevanbai Tata. Nuseerwan ji

was the first businessman in a family of parsi Zorastrian priests. Destiny called him

to BPGDMy where he started trading. Jamshed ji joined him at the tender age of

fourteen. He took admission in Elphinstone college and while still a student he

married Hirabai Daboo. Jamshed ji graduated in 1858 and joined his father trading

firm. Those were turbulent times. The British had just managed to ruthlessly crush

the 1857 Revolt. Since the age of twenty-nine Jamshed ji continued to work in his

father’s firm. In 1868 he started a trading company on his own with a capital of

Rs.21,000/- his first step was to acquire a bankrupt oil mill and convert it into a

cotton mill which he renamed Alexander Mill. Two years later he sold it with a good

margin of profit. With this he set up a cotton mill in Nagpur in 1874. queen Victoria

had just been declared the Empress and in keeping with the times Jamshed ji

named it Empress mill. Jamshed ji was a unique personality. It was not just his

own personal success but also of those who worked for him and his group.

Jamshed ji was in close contact with revolutionary thinkers and nationalists like

Dadabhai Naoroji and Pherozeshah Mehta and strongly influenced by them. He

came to the conclusion that economic self-sufficiency should go hand with political

independence. The former should be the base of the latter.

Jamshed ji had three key ideas in mind. He wanted to set up an iron and steel

company, world class learning institution and a hydroelectric plant. Unfortunately

during his time none bore fruit but he had planted the seed, which later took roots

and spread its branches under the care of his successors. The only achievement

that he lived to see was the taj mahal hotel .it was completed in December 1903

for a princely amount of Rs.4, 21,00,000/- in this too he was inspired by nationalist

thinking. In those days the locals, that is Indians, were not allowed into the best

23

Page 24: project tata motors

European hotel . taj mahal hotel was a befitting reply to this discrimination. Tata

group is a private conglomerate with headquarters at Mumbai. The present

chairman is Ratan Tata who took over from J.R.D. Tata in 1991. A member of the

Tata family is always the chairman of the group. Its operations covers many fields

related to industry and allied activities concerned with know-how and its

application engineering, information technology, communications, materials,

automotive, chemicals energy, telecommunications, software, hotels, steel and

consumer goods. The statistics and figures of Tata group speak for themselves.

Its revenue touches $967,229 million or $ 21.9 billion in 2005/06. This is equal to

2.8% of India’s GDP. There are about 246.000 employees in the tat group as per

records of 2004. Market capitalization figure is $57.6 billion. There are ninety-six

companies operating in seven business sectors. A only twenty-eight of the ninety-

six in Tata group are publicly listed. Tata operates in more than forty countries

across six continents. It exports products and services to one hundred and forty

nations. The charitable trust of Tata of holds 65.8% of the ownership of Tata group

TISCO now called Tata steel set up in 1907 India’s first iron and steel plant in

Jamshedpur, whish is often called Tatanagar. Production actually started in 1912.

It produce steel at the lowest cost in the word. This is mainly because it is assisted

by group member concern that deals with the supply of raw material like coal and

iron. In 1910 was set up Tata Hydro-Electric power Supply Company. In 1917 the

Tata group made its debut in the field of consumer goods industry with the setting

up of Tata oil mill dealing in soaps, detergents and cooking oil. 1932 saw the

establishment of Tata airlines. Tata chemicals made its appearance I 1939. Telco

now known as Tata Motors started to manufacture locomotive and engineering

products from 1945. January 2007 is a watershed in the history of Tata group.

Tata steel made a successfyl bid for UK based corus group, which was one of the

world’s leading steel and aluminum producers. After an unprecedented nine

rounds of bidding Tata finally clinched the deal.

24

Page 25: project tata motors

Tata offered to buy 100% stake in Corus at 608p per share (all cash) totaling to a

value of $12.04 billlion. It has turned out to be the biggest acquisition by any

Indian Company. Tata Power is one of the largest private sector companies in

India and supplies power to Mumbai and parts of New Delhi. Then there are Tata

Chemicals and Tata Pigments. In the service sector there are Tata Companies

dealing with hotels, general insurance and life insurance. Tata offers management,

economic and financial consultancy services. Tata offers management, economic

McGraw Hill is a renowned name. Many renowned public sector companies and

research organizations like Indian Institute of Science, Tata Institute of

Fundamental Research, Tata Institute of Social Sciences, Tata Energy Research

Institute and Air India (Tata Airlines) owe their origins to the name of Tata. Other

educational institutes are Tata Institute of Science now Indian Institute of Science,

Bangalore. Tata Institute of Fundamental Research “Deemed University, Tata

Management Training center, Pune, Tata Institute of Social Science” deemed

University and National Centre for the Performing Arts. The name of Tata is linked

to consumer durables like tea, watches (Titan) Tata Trent (Westside) to Tata

skyand even gold and diamonds like Tanishq brand of jewellery. In Information

systems and communications the Tata name comes with Computational &

Research Laboratories, INCAT, Nelco, Nelito Systems, TCS and Tata Elxsi.

INDUSTRY PROFILE

An embryonic automotive Industry emerged in India in the 1940 following the

independence in 1953 the government of India and the private sector launched

efforts to create an automotive component manufacturing industry to supply to the

automobile industry. However the growth was relatively slow in the 1950s to 1960s

due to nationalization and the license raj which hampered the Indian private

sector. After 1970 the automotive industry started to grow but the growth was

mainly driven by tractors, commercial vehicles and scooters, cars were still a

major lixury Japanese manufacturer’s enterd the Indian market ultimately leading

to the stablishment of maruti udyog. A number of foreign firms initiated joint

venture with Indian companies.

In 1980s a number of Japanese manufacturers launched joint venture for building

motorcycles and light commercial vehicles automobile company like TATA

MOTORS, Mahindra and Mahindra, Ashok Leyland, Swaraj Mazda and Eicher are

manufacturing high performance delivering LCVs. The LCVs produced by these

companies are not only sold in India but are also exported to various foreign

markets as well.

The last few years huga amount of investment have been made in automobile

industry. With more global players getting interested in Indian automobile Industry,

these investments are supposed to increase even more in the near future. Most of

LCV manufacturers in the country are emphasizing on better research and

development activities and efforts are being given to provide efficient after sales

services to customers.

Some of the popular offerings in the field of light commercial vehicle from the

TATA MOTORS stable are 407 and 709 of which the former has made a distinct

mark in the category of Indian LCVs. However the recently Tata Ace has brought

27

Page 28: project tata motors

about dramatic change in the Indian LCV market. Low priced and attractively

designed. The Tata Ace has been hugely popular and recorded significant sales

in the first year of production itself.

Ashok Leyland is another major player with product like cargo 759 tipper to boast

of with a wheel base of 3200 mm and 5 speed synchromesh gearbox; it has got 4

cylinder diesel power engines.

Vision and Mission

The Tata Group is one of India largest business conglomerates established by

Jamshed ji Tata (Jamshed Ji) In the second half of the 19 th century. Jamshed ji’s

vision for the Group was in line with nationalist goals and Ideals then and

envisaged to make India self-reliant. After Jamshed Ji, Jehangir Ratan Ji

Dadabhoy Tata (JRD) became the Chairman of the Tata Group and played a

significant role in continuing the vision of the group. Tata assets climbed from INR

620 million in 1939 to INR 100 billion in 1990. Tata Motors had increased its sales

to INR 1 million in the Year 1991 and it had rolled out 3 million vehicles in the

same year. In 1991 Ratan Naval Tata (Ratan Tata/Ratan) took over the

Chairmanship from JRD Tata. Although he was initially criticized for his poor

performance over the years, Ratan Tata disproved his critics. He restructured Tata

Group’s business operations and made the Group compete globally. Under Ratan

Tata’s chairmanship, Tata Consultancy Services went public and Tata Motors was

listed in the New York Stock Exchange. Starting from the late 1990s, Ratan

revamped the operations of Tata Steel and made it one of the lowest-cost steel

producers in the world. However, as the Tata’s lacks an heir who can succeed

Ratan, the group is at cross-roads to decide who will be the next chairman. After

Ratan Tata’s retirement who would succeed him an carry the vision of the Group is

a dilemma.

MISSION

Our Mission in Tata is to improve the quality of life in India through leadership in

targeted sectors of national economic significance to which the Group can bring a

unique set of capabilities.

CORE BUSINESS WHEN STARTED / ESTABLISHED

Development of Tata Iron & Steel Company: (Late 1800s-1980s)

From the mid-1880s, Tata commissioned a series of surveys in India’s coal

producing areas, such as Bihar and Orissa in the northeast of the subcontinent, to

locate iron ore within easy reach of coal deposits and water, both essential

elements in steel production. He visited the United States to seek the advice of the

world’s foremost metallurgical consultant, Julian Kennedy and went to

Birmingham, Alabama to study the coking process in action. In England in 1900 he

discussed his plans with the secretary of state of India, Lord George Hamilton. In

India, the way had been opened for private enterprise with the introduction of a

more liberalized mineral concession policy in 1899. With Julian Kennedy’s

help,American specialists were brought in and began surveying in 1903. After a

series of disappointments, rich iron ore deposits were identified in the dense jungle

in Bihar at the confluence of two rivers near Sakchi three years after Jamshed ji

Tata’s death in 1904. Also involved in the surveying was Tata’s nephew, Shapur ji

Saklatvala, whose health suffered so much that he was sent to London to

recuperate.

There, he joined his uncle’s London office which had been established some years

earlier to represent the interests of the family cotton business. His energies were

soon channeled away from business matters and into politics and he became

37

Page 38: project tata motors

Communist member of Parliament for Battersea North in 1922. Four years after

Tata’s death his sons Dorab Ji and Ratan Ji began development of the Bihar site.

The Tata Iron and steel Company by seeking out Indian Investors. In the face of

warnings that India could not afford a flotation of the size the Tata brothers set out

to raise Rs 23.2 million in shares. Within eight weeks some 8,000 Indian investors

came forward and the whole share issue was taken up. The Tata’s retained 11

percent of the stock for themselves. There were enormous initial problems in

clearing the Sakchi site and once production began in ensuring that the coal was

of a uniform quality. By 1916, however, production was meeting expectations and

during World War I the Company exported 1500 miles of steel rails to

Mesopotamia. Rapid expansion to support the Allied war effort was followed by

Depression during the 1920s with escalating prices, transport and labor difficulties

and major earthquake in Japan by now TISCO’s biggest customer. The company

had to suspend its dividend for 12 out of 13 years in this period and was on the

brink of closing in 1924 when Sir Dorab Ji Tata had to pledge his personal fortune

to secure the necessary bank loans to keep the business afloat. TISCO emerged

from the 1930s however as the biggest steel plant in the British Empire.

World War II brought a resurgence in demand for Tata products and the Company

specialized in the manufacture of armored cars known as Tatanagars, which were

used extensively by the British Army in the North African desert. Following six

years of almost continuous production to serve the war effort it became imperative

in the late 1940s to begin replacement of the plant. In association with Kaiser

Engineering of the United States capacity was expanded and a Modernization and

Expansion Program (MEP) was launched in 1951 upgraded four years later to the

Two Million Ton Project (TMP) to give TISCO the capacity to produce two million

tons of crude steel. This was achieved in 1958 but further expansion was put on

hold during the 1960s while the country passed through a period of devaluation

and recession. By 1970, however TISCO employed 40,000 people at Jamshedpur

with a further 20,000 in the neighboring coal mines. Government attempts to

nationalize TISCO in 1971 and 1979 were defeated in part it was believed to retain

38

Page 39: project tata motors

an efficient private sector yardstick against which the performance of public sector

companies could be judged. An ever-increasing range of government legislation to

bring private sector businesses into line with national economic planning on the

Soviet model, however, hampered Tata’s freedom to develop in the postwar

period. In 1978 the government restricted TISCO’s dividend to 12 percent to force

it as India’s only private sector steel producer, to plough money into

modernization. Expansion was restricted by a government committed to helping

nationalized Industry.

Further difficulties were created in the late 1970s by chronic shortages of coal

power and rail transport. An estimated Rs 45 crores of salable steel was lost

during 1979-80 because of these shortages. TISCO soldiered on, However and in

the following decade began to benefir\t from a relaxation of government control as

a more pragmatic attitude to the importance of private sector industry emerged. In

1989 the Tata Group increased its stake in the steel firm to ward off any attempts

by outside shareholders to gain control of the Company. By 1990, TISCO

remained India’s largest nonpublic Company announcing a 30 percent increase in

profits against a backdrop of general depression in the Indian economy as a

whole.

RESEACH METHODOLOGY

Research methodology is a way to systematically solve the research problem. It

may be understood as science of studying how research is done scientifically.

According to chifford woody,

“Research comprises defining and redefining problems formulating hypothesis or

suggested solutions collecting, organizing and evaluating data, making dedication

and reacting conclusions and at last carefully testing the collusions to determine

whether they fit the formulating hypothesis.”

The advance learner’s dictionary of current English lays down the earning of

research as,

“A careful investigation or inquiry especially through search for new fact in any

branch of knowledge.”

METHODOLOGY

65

Page 66: project tata motors

For preparation of questionnaire the basic objective of the survey was

concentrated previous surveys under taken prospect card secondary data through

net and related books and magazines.

For the survey, convenience sampling this method involves purposive of

deliberate selection of particular units of the universe which representing universe.

SAMPLE SIZE

For our research process we have chosen a sample size of 60 persons as to

collect the Information about the need of Tata light commercial vehicles.

According to their needs we Delivered information about different segment of

tata product.

DATA COLLECTION

The task of data collection begins after a research problem has been defined

and research design/plan is chalked out. While deciding about the method of

data collection to be used for study the researcher should keep in mind two

type of data viz.

a) Primary Data

b) Secondary Data

METHODS OF DATA COLLECTION

66

Page 67: project tata motors

The researcher should keep in mind two types of data viz. primary and

secondary data. The primary data are those which are collected a fresh and

for the first time and thus happen to be original in character. The secondary

data on the other hand are those which already has been collected by

someone else and which have already been passed through statistical

process.

1) Collection of Primary Data-

There are several method of collection Primary Data Particularly in surveys

and descriptive researches important ones are:

i. Observation Method

ii. Interview Method

iii. Through Questionnaires

iv. Other Method which include

a) Using Mechanical Techniques

b) Through Projective Techniques

c) Depth Interview

d) Content analysis

Questionnaire- The main medium of collecting the data was questionnaire.

Interview-

67

Page 68: project tata motors

TATA vehicle users & employees of TATA MOTORS were interviewed for the

analysis purpose. Their responses along with the reasons are written down in

the analysis.

Collection of secondary data-

Secondary data means data that are already available i.e. they refer to data

which are already collected analyzed by someone else. Secondary data may

be either published data or unpublished data. Usually published data are

available in:-

1. various publication of automobile company

2. technical and trade journals

3. books, magazines and news papers

4. public record and statistics

Website of the organization:-

some of the literature is being collected by the website of TATA MOTORS. Mainly

the history of the company, introduction etc is taken.

Literature-

Literature like material was not available but some formal data was available which

was very helpful in the analysis.

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGTH

Tata motors has got good professional marketing team and well coordinated

structure with modern business concepts.

Tata motors has established quality in vehicle sector and had got consistent and

good customer support.

Most of the customer are well aware of the company’s name and show loyalty for

the name of “TATA”.

WEAKNESS Tata motors do not have service stations in rural areas or internal areas and also

providing good service due to lack of service stations.

The village’s people or farmer has need of product like tractor which is not launch

by tata.

OPPORTUNITY

Tata motors the largest vehicle manufacture in India. So every person knows

about the TATA and attract towards the TATA brabd name.

Tata motors providing services according heir customers.

THREAT

80

Page 81: project tata motors

Because of over crowded market “TATA Motors” had to competitor not only with

Ashok Leyland but also with other vehicle manufacture company.

SURVEY FINDING RECOMMENDATION

Question- what is the market share of deferent companies?

Answer- TATA =66%

Ashok leylend=34%

Eicher =0

Tata have a large number of HCV in the comparison to other

automobiles companies in India. TATA have a big range of of have

but according to the research tata is not in good position in the area

like kabari. that’s why Bajaj have 64% customer .

Question- Requirement of Tata HCV?

Answer- Requirement of commercial vehicle can be understand by

following

HOT- Hot Customer Is One Who Is Willing To Buy.

WARM -A Customer Who May Buy In Near Future.

COLD- He Has No Requirement.

81

Page 82: project tata motors

ANALYSIS

By surveying to the different crusher mill I want to suggest following

points-

There are more rules and regulation used by TATA motors in

comparison to other company. So customer does not feel

comfortable and finance the HCV from the other company.

Though Tata product specially dumpher are less fuel consumption

but it is not successful in place like kabrai.
