(1) CONCEPT OF RELIANCE COMMUNICATION
Thursday, August 09, 2007
Anil Ambani: Telecom person of the year 2007
His marketing strategy has made millions of Indians happy, they got the best mobile
tariffs in the world-local call costs at 15 paise/minute, and STD call at 40
paise/minute
NEW DELHI, INDIA: When the VOICE&DATA jury, comprisingprofessionals from the telecom field, met in Delhi in June to choose the TelecomPerson of the Year 2007, the five-hour selection process was steamy.
The reason was obvious: The telecom sector is growing faster than any other segmentand naturally their CEOs have a lot to crow about. The jury had to select one fromthree CEOs, who had made it to the final list through nominations from the industryand the initial scrutiny. Among the three, one of the main contenders was a youngCEO. The jury decided that he should come back next year to try and win the coveted
award. The list now had two names-both CEOs of two well-known companies. Thepivotal difference between the two: one is an entrepreneur and the other is not sopopular, as his credit is shared among a number of his big daddies.
Following a five-hour closely held, hotly debated discussion, the announced: Anil Dhirubhai Ambani, chairman of Reliance Communications. AnilAmbani joined Reliance Industries (currently promoted by his brother MukeshAmbani, following their split) in 1983 as co-chief executive officer. Forbes rankedhim number 104 among the World's Richest People in 2006. The Ambani family
faced criticism when it announced its ambitious plans to build a countrywide telecomnetwork, as its prior expertise lay in commodities-textiles and petrochemicals-business only. Apart from that telecom needs a service-oriented mindset, critics felt.What they did not remember was how the family had served its millions ofshareholders.

Policies in India are made in line with Ambani's vision, says an industry expert. Hisbusiness acumen and closeness to politicians assisted him in making it to the RajyaSabha in June 2004, as an independent member. Ambani chose to resign voluntarilyon March 25, 2006.
The same association with politicos gave him negative returns too when the MayawatiGovernment in Uttar Pradesh put a spanner on his ambitious plans to build a 1,200-acre SEZ.
Media sees his aggression when he announces financial results for the Reliance ADAgroup of companies, and when he attends the annual general meetings and facesquestions from shareholders. When he meets the press, he has answers to all theirquestions. He also remembers to call select journalists by name.
To merchant bankers he, who has already contributed immensely to thefinancial reforms of the country, is one of the financial wizards of the world. May bebecause of his expertise, he gave up in the race to grab Hutchison Essar stake, afterindirectly jacking up the valuation. His negotiations with the Qualcomm chief are alsoa folk theory now.
How did Ambani become the VOICE&DATA Telecom Person of the Year 2007?What are his personal and organizational achievements in the recent past?
His path-breaking marketing strategy that was put in by the strongest team of telecom
professionals the country has ever seen has made millions of Indians happy as theygot the best mobile tariffs in the world. The aggression resulted to adding to hisalready swollen kitty. Every hour India will be adding around 20,000 new mobilecustomers and Reliance Communications over 4,000. When mobile telephony firstbegan in India, a local call cost Rs 16 per minute; an STD Rs 50; and a call to the USRs 100 per minute. With Reliance Communications pioneering price initiative, alocal call now costs a mere 15 paise per minute, STD 40 paise, and a call to the UScosts less than Rs 2 per minute. The presence of Reliance Communications is makingthe competition in India panicky. Global telecom forces will also shortly start feeling
the heat. Ambani has also recently announced his Rs 1,200 crore buyout of YipesHoldings.

After expansion, Reliance Communications will have the single largest wirelessnetwork in the world
Launched the lowest-cost classic brand handset at Rs 777 Subscriber base grew to over 28 mn during last fiscal, registering 60% growth Total Revenue shot up to Rs 14,468 crore, an increase of 34% Net Profit rises to Rs 3,163 crore, an increase of over 600%
Revenues of the wireless business increased by 46% to Rs 10,728 crore Broadband achieved revenue growth of 123% to Rs 1,144 crore Market capitalization crossed Rs 100,000 crore Will add 23,000 more towers Telecom services will be available in over 23,000 towns and 600,000 villages Next generation DTH network will be launched before end of the year
Reliance Communications' wireless subscriber base grew to over 28 mn last fiscal,registering a 60% growth. This makes it one of the top two wireless operators in India.
"Economic growth in the future will be indexed to connectivity of millions of enterpriseand individual customers. Over the next few years, we will have over 100 millioncustomers, making us one of the top 5 telecom players in the world. In four years, we putup a total of 14,000 towers across the country. This year alone we will add 23,000 moretowers. Our wireless network is currently available in 10,000 towns. By the end of thisyear, it will be available in over 23,000 towns and 600,000 villages," Anil Ambani said atthe first annual general meeting of Reliance Communications since the re-organization ofthe Reliance Group in June 2005.
"In four years of operations, we invested around Rs 32,000 crore. This year alone we willinvest over Rs 20,000 crore. At the end of this year, we will have covered over 90% ofour population. If Version 1.0 of the Indian telecom story was all about affordability,Version 2.0 will be about reach. Our
Network expansion will give us the power to drive the market and stay ahead of thecurve," Ambani adds.
According to Ambani, the financial restructuring of Reliance Communications is thebiggest turnaround story in the history of corporate India. The inherited ownership

structure of Reliance Communications was complex. The reorganization has yielded asimple, fair, and transparent ownership structure, and given Reliance Communications100% ownership of all operational and associate companies.
Reliance Communications is now among the three most valuable pcompanies in India, and the five most valuable telecom companies in Asia. In the current
Fiscal, Reliance Communications will spend Rs 16,000 crore to further expand andstrengthen its network coverage across India and the rest of the world.
In addition to organic growth, Reliance Communications will leverage the advantagesderived from this impressive financial platform to explore and pursue any significant
Opportunities available in the telecommunications sector. "We are currently evaluating a
number of inorganic opportunities in select international markets to further expand ourfootprint," Ambani said.
Reliance Communications One India, One Tariff plan allowed millions to connect acrossIndia at just one rupee a minute. The company was the first one to break the Rs 1,000entry-barrier with the launch of the lowest-cost classic brand handset at Rs 777.
As per its expansion plan, Reliance Communications will have the single largest wirelessnetwork in the world, covering over 900 mn Indians or more than 15% of the globalpopulation. It will cover 23,000 towns or every single Indian habitation with a population
of over 1,000. Reliance Communications will cover almost 100% of all rail routes,providing seamless voice, video, radio, and Internet connectivity to 14 mn commutersevery day. It will also cover almost 100% of all national highways, and 84% of all statehighways, giving millions of users the power to talk, text, surf, play, chat or simply stayin touch across nearly the entire length of India's 2,00,000-km-long road network.
Having achieved tremendous growth, the main challenge for Reliance Communications isto improve quality of service and ARPU. Its enterprise business is also not in a positionto compete with the global majors. Stock market valuations may boost the fortunes of anentrepreneur, but Ambani needs to address the issues faced by the growing mobilecustomer base, especially in India, where bureaucracy takes pride in checking thebusinessman.

(1) INTRODUCTION OF THE TOPIC
What is SWOT Analysis?
SWOT analysis is a basic, straightforward model that provides direction and serves as abasis for the development of marketing plans. It accomplishes this by assessing an
organizations strengths (what an organization can do) and weaknesseorganization cannot do) in addition to opportunities (potential favorable conditions for anorganization) and threats (potential unfavorable conditions for an organization). SWOTanalysis is an important step in planning and its value is often underestimated despite thesimplicity in creation. The role of SWOT analysis is to take the information from theenvironmental analysis and separate it into internal issues (strengths and weaknesses) andexternal issues (opportunities and threats). Once this is completed, SWOT analysisdetermines if the information indicates something that will assist accomplishing its objectives (a strength or opportunity),
SWOT analysis is a general technique which can be applied across diverse functions andactivities, but it is particularly appropriate to the early stages of planning for a TIPD visit.Performing SWOT analysis involves generating and recording the strengths, weaknesses,opportunities, and threats relating to a given task. It is customary for the analysis to takeaccount of internal resources and capabilities (strengths and weaknesses) and factorsexternal to the organization (opportunities and threats).
SWOT analysis can provide:A framework for identifying and analyzing strengths, weaknesses, opportunities andthreats.
This checklist is for those carrying out, or participating in, SWOT analysis. It is a simple,popular technique which can be used in preparing or amending plans, in problem solvingand decision making.

Illustrative diagram of SWOT analysis If SWOT analysis does not start with defining adesired end state or objective, it runs the risk of being useless. A SWOT analysis may beincorporated into the strategic planning model. An example of a strategic planningtechnique that incorporates an objective-driven SWOT analysis is SCAN analysis.Strategic Planning, including SWOT and SCAN analysis, has been the subject of muchresearch.
Strengths: attributes of the organization those are helpful to achieving the objective.Weaknesses: attributes of the organization those are harmful to achieving the objective.Opportunities: external conditions those are helpful to achieving the objective.Threats: external conditions that is harmful to achieving the
SWOT analysis can be used for all sorts of decision-making, and the SWOT templateenables proactive thinking, rather than relying on habitual or instinctive reactions.
The SWOT analysis template is normally presented as a grid, comprising four sections,one for each of the SWOT headings: Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats.The free SWOT template below includes sample questions, whose answers are insertedinto the relevant section of the SWOT grid. The questions are examples, or discussionpoints, and obviously can be altered depending on the subject of the SWOT analysis.Note that many of the SWOT questions are also talking points for other headings - usethem as you find most helpful, and make up your own to suit the issue being analyzed. Itis important to clearly identify the subject of a SWOT analysis, because a SWOT analysis
is a perspective of one thing, be it a company, a product, a proposition, and idea, amethod, or option, etc.
Here are some examples of what a SWOT analysis can be used to assess:
a company (its position in the market, commercial viability, etc) a method of sales distribution a product or brand a business idea a strategic option, such as entering a new market or launching a new product
a opportunity to make an acquisition a potential partnership changing a supplier outsourcing a service, activity or resource an investment opportunity

II. APPROACH FOR NEW RETAIL COUNTER
(25/6/2008 to 2/7/2008)
III. TO LAUNCH NEW SCHEME THROUGH THE CANOPY (3/7/2008 to10/7/2008)
MARKETING VISITING & SURVEY 17th June was my first day of summertraining in Reliance communication in Dhanbad. I met to satyakant sir. He took myinterview and selects me for summer training. Then he chose my mentor Mr. Rajeev sir
who guides me in summer training. After that I had to do my summer training under inRajeev sir.First day I went Puja enterprises that have the Distributor shiCommunication. Then after we met the Three DSR (DistrRepresentative).Through the DSR we saw and got the all information about the marketand knew that how they work and how increase the goodwill of R. Communication.They give the regular information about current scheme & plan. We saw that there were
more than 200 hundred small & big counters under the Puja enterprises.

Time of visited all retail counters with DSR I learnt all those thing how to explain infront of retailer about the plan & schemes and main thing I learnt there how toconvince for accepting a big budget schemes. We familiarized with some kinds ofproblems those having been retailer, in his working day with customers. Afterfinishing all the counters I went again to the main office for reporting my work toRajeev sir. Along with all work we had to also seen those some counters which didnot keep recharge voucher, E-recharge and some types of reliance handset like GSK &CDMA. The main reason through which they can not keep the above given facilities isthat they were not telling their problem with us. For removing these problems, therewas only one way that they have to tell us their problem with us through which we canremove that problem. Therefore at last I asked the problem and they shared with ustheir problem. Since I was a junior therefore it was my responsibility to keep all theproblems in front of Mr. Rajeev sir.
It was my marketing visiting for the 7 days which was the great experienced work forme. In this period I learnt some kinds of idea for increasing the sale, also I gotfamiliarized with those problems which generally come in the market for sellingpurpose.
