PREFACE

Summer training is integral part of the Management course and

aims at providing a first hand experience of the industry to the

student. This practical experience helps student to view the real

business world closely, which in turn widely influences their

conceptions and perception. This project is the result of my trading at

Bharti Airtel. Ltd (Vega centre) Pune.

I was really fortunate to get an opportunity to pursue my

summer training in a reputed, well- established fast growing

organization.

This project was assigned to find out the behavior and to collect

information about the satisfaction level of the customers about the

products and service of Airtel Prepaid and to drive the efficiency of

easy recharge system. I personally met the respondents for getting the

8

Page 9: Airtel Ppt

information. It gave me a great deal of exposure and I found the

practical work totally different form the theoretical work.

Objectives of the studyThe primary objective of the study undertaken was to tress the market

share of all Telecom services in specific part of pune region. The

motive behind the study was to know which Telecom giant is leading

the market and who prime competitor is. The analysis also reveals

what factors make Airtel the brand leader as compared to other

telecom giants. The study also provides us with the factors that affect

26

Page 27: Airtel Ppt

reputation of Airtel. With the help of these analysis the organization

can take certain measures to improve its market reputation.

The second aspect of my project was to improve the

efficiency of easy recharge system. While dialing mobile numbers of

the customers many retailers tend to make mistake while doing top-up

recharge, objective was to reduce the wrong recharge claims by the

retailers to the company and bring the efficiency in the system.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGYResearch:-

Research is the genesis of an effort to do any in-depth study, ‘no

research no knowledge, no findings, no conclusion and finally no use’.

Its significance is so immense that every discipline has a compulsory

research analysis for the overall development of the student. Three

basic components of a research are therefore,

A persisting Question or Problem,

27

Page 28: Airtel Ppt

A quest to find an answer to questions through the application of

the scientific method.

A systematic and intensive study directed towards a more

complete knowledge of the subject studied.

Research is a careful investigation or inquiry which specially searches

for any new fact in any branch of knowledge

Redman and Mory defines research as a “systematized effort to gain

new knowledge”.

Research is an academic activity and as such the term should be used

in a technical sense.

According to Clifford Wody “research comprises defining and

redefining problem, formulating hypothesis or suggested solution;

collecting, organizing and evaluating data; making deduction and

reaching conclusions; and at last carefully testing the conclusion to

determine whether they fit the formulating hypothesis. In other words

research may be defined as the manipulation of things, concepts of

symbols for purpose of generalizing to extend, correct or verify

knowledge, whether that knowledge aids in construction of theory or in

the practice of art”.

Definition of Marketing Research

Marketing Research as defined by the American Marketing

Association is “providing information to management so that it can

28

Page 29: Airtel Ppt

identify and react to marketing opportunities and problems”. Thus, it is

a process by which the market is studied intensively in order to draw a

nexus between the consumers and producers. This helps the producers

to satisfy the consumer needs and also helps the consumers retain the

producer’s services and products.

According to Philip Kotler :-

“It is a systematic designed collection and analysis

and reporting of data and finding relevant and

specific Market situation to face by the company”.

Keeping in mind these above stated essentials my research has the

following phases:

Primary data collection:

Primary data is the first hand data. As in case of day to day life,

if you want to have first hand information on any happening or

event, either ask someone who knows about it or we observe it

ourselves, or we do both. Same is applicable to marketing

29

Page 30: Airtel Ppt

research. Thus, the two main methods by which primary data

may be collected are:

Observation

Communication

In case of my project on “Market share analysis of all telecom

services”, the only source of primary data collection was through

communication.

Communication is a method of designing Questionnaires with a

view to collect the requisite information. So the first step towards

the data collection was the preparation of a “Questionnaire”.

Questionnaire designing

Designing of a questionnaire is the most crucial phase in the

whole market research process, as the type of questionnaire

designed by you determines the quality of data collected and

that also determines how at best the relevant information can be

30

Page 31: Airtel Ppt

extracted from the respondent. So the questionnaire designing

should be very planned and proper.

Designing of questionnaire is not as simple a job as it appears. A

marketing researcher intending to collect primary data has to be

extremely careful in deciding what information is to be collected,

how many questions are to be formulated their sequence, what

should be the language and what should be the layout of the

questionnaire. All these aspects need considerable time and

effort of the marketing researcher. If he is able to develop a

questionnaire suitable for his field investigation, he will find that

his task of collecting the data has become much easier than

otherwise.

Classification :

The questionnaire can be classified into four categories:

Structured-non-disguised.

Structure-disguised

Non-structured-non-disguised

31

Page 32: Airtel Ppt

Non -structured –disguised

Structured questionnaire is a formal list of questions framed so a s to

get the facts. The interviewer asks the questions strictly and in

accordance with a pre arranged order. If, for example, the marketing

researcher is interested in knowing the amount of expenditure incurred

on different types of clothing i:e cotton, woolen or synthetic, by

different households classified according to the income he may frame

a set of questions seeking this factual information.

I relied on the first category of the questionnaire “Structured-non-

disguised”. In this kind of questionnaire the listing of questions is a pre

arranged order and where the object of enquiry is revealed to the

respondent.

Advantages :

This kind of questionnaire has many advantages, like:

It facilitates the collection of information in a systematic and

orderly manner as the questions have been formulated in

advance

Since the questions asked by each individual happen to be

identical and are asked in the same order, the information is

32

Page 33: Airtel Ppt

generally not vitiated on account of the varying characteristics of

the different interviewers.

A structured questionnaire calls for a straight forward and simple

approach on the part of the interviewers. As such, even less

qualified interviewers can be deployed in canvassing such a

questionnaire.

Such a questionnaire makes it far easier to edit, tabulate and

interpret the data it contains.

A structure questionnaire can be conveniently pre tested so that

suitable modifications can be made in the phraseology of

questions or in their sequence or both.

Types of questions:

The next important step in the questionnaire designing is to

decide the kind of questions to be used. Questions can be

classified in various ways. One of the most important way of

classification is as follows:

33

Page 34: Airtel Ppt

Open-ended-questions

Dichotomous-questions

Multi-choice-question

The questionnaire I designed had all the above three characteristics. I

preferred Open-ended-questions where there was no scope for any

choices being put forth to the respondent and his personal opinion on

the matter was more significant. Some of the open ended questions in

my questionnaire were the following:

1. Why do you sell Airtel Brand when other famous brands of

telecom sectors are available?

I also included Dichotomous kind of questions which had answers in

just one word i;e either YES or NO. These questions consumed least

time and a perfect one word answer helped in analysis. Some of the

dichotomous questions in my project were the following:

1. Are you satisfied with the performance of your Airtel Brand?

a. Yes b. No

Multiple choice questions also have their own significance in the

questionnaire and so their inclusion was also a must. Not all questions

can be answered in one word of two options and so multi choice

questions are preferred over. Some of such questions were:

1. What makes Bharti Airtel the brand leader in the telecom sector?

a. Good schemes b. Service (network)

34

Page 35: Airtel Ppt

c. Advertisement d. Price

d. Innovations

2. Which company offers better schemes which are beneficial?

a. Airtel b. Idea

c. Hutch d. Reliance

d. Tata

3. Which is the brand mostly used by students and other classes?

a. Airtel . b.Idea

c. Hutch d. Reliance

d. Tata

Layout :

It was also important that I gave a decent layout to the questionnaire,

so as to make it look good and well built at the first instance itself. I

had to seek corporate assistance for interviews and a neat

questionnaire was imperative. So I made a clean draft of the same with

only sufficient number of questions in each page.

35

Page 36: Airtel Ppt

Questionnaire finalization-

Finally after going through the rigorous process mentioned above I

finalized the questionnaire and forwarded the same for the consent

of my seniors. I was elated to see that not many changes were

proposed by them and my effort was appreciated by all. The whole

process took me four days and at the end of fourth day it all paid off

well. My questionnaire was ready to face the corporate respondents.

Suggestions

47

Some suggestions received from the retailers and customers

Regarding improper supply of recharge vouchers and Sim

Regarding less network in some area

Regarding claims (wrong recharge)

Regarding distributor

Regarding Customer care

Where Airtel is lagging.

1) Conjunction of Networks

2) Airtel to Airtel is good but Airtel to other mobile is not good.

3) Profit of margin should increase for retailers.

4) Lagging in advertisement and signboard.

5) Distributors should be more Co-operative.

6) Connectivity should be effective than other telecom services.

7) Activation of Sim in proper time. (no time taking )

8) Each and everything should be cleared in market of Airtel.

Recommendations

On basis of the above research we can say that

As Airtel is a known brand and is on the top for customer

preference, Airtel should work on service as well as on the

distributors in order to capture new market.

As Airtel is popular among the common people but it is found

that it has lost its popularity amongst the elite class so proper

measure should be taken to create awareness in the market

where Airtel is lagging.

It is also found by the research that elite people are not satisfied

with the performance and also have various complains regarding

the Scheme and Services and also conjunction of Network

Provided by Bharti Airtel. And for that it is always suggested to

find out the reasons behind the complaints made by the

customers and try to rectify the problem so as to regain trust.

Airtel should advertise properly, by providing sign board and

offering new schemes as well.

In order to fight the competitors Airtel has to be innovative

(which can be done by making scheme and product more

attractive).

A group of trained staff from Airtel should visit the outlets providing easy recharge system in order to educate the retailers about the easy recharge process.

A team of employees should regularly visit the outlets providing easy recharge service in order to get feedbacks from the retailers about the efficiency of easy recharge process.

Airtel should come up with different incentives schemes for the retailers in order to promote the sale of easy recharge system.
