    was based on customers point of view. %or the study, both primary dataand secondary data

    were re;uired. #he primary data was collected based on a survey research, using a structured

    ;uestionnaire with both open ended and closed3ended ;uestions.

    #he sampling procedure used was random sampling for the 1stobjective i.e. to understand

    consumer needs on motorbikes : scooters. %or the nd objective i.e. to understand the

    awareness levels of #$S I went to the prospects and met the respondents to fill the

    ;uestionnaire. #he mode of survey was of personal interview, where the respondents filled up

    the ;uestionnaires. #he secondary data was collected from business newspapers, maga"ines,

    'ompany brochures, journals and the Internet. #he major conclusion from this study was that

    #$S has to improve itself to gain the 1 stposition in the market as it is doing well to maintain

    its (rdposition in the market.

    In terms of competition #$S has neck3to3neck competition with 7ero 7onda and +ajaj. #$S

    has a lot of work to do if it has to take lead and remain the leading manufacturer in India.

    CONCLUSION

    #he facts and figures shown in the analysis is correct and the survey has

    been done in a good faith and responsibility

    #he data I gathered from the survey helped me to understand the preference

    of bikes by the riders and the ;ualities they would like in their bikes. #he

    data gave an idea that the promotion of #$S bikes is not up to the mark.

    According to the riders of #$S bikes the best things about #$S bikes is the

    mileage.

    I had done promotional activity for the new product of #$S i.e. 9ive from

    where my learned the various techni;ues used for promotion. I came across

    many people and described about the feature of 9ive which was very

    learning. It was a great e=perience when I had to interact with customers inshowroom with different ;ueries, needs and demand.

    %inally I would like to thanks #$S and showroom manager and showroom

    owner for giving us this great opportunity to learn and increase our

    managerial skills.
