The rapid pace of change and intense competitive pressure in today's marketplace
demand that brands continuously innovate themselves to maintain their relevance and market
position.
TATA MOTORS has launched a new vehicle i-e “WINGER CARGO”. This
vehicle belongs to the small commercial vehicle category. The special feature of the vehicle is
the loading area and the closed container body. Tata winger cargo vehicle’s idea has been
generated from Mercedes-benz sprinter with huge cargo space and easy navigation within
city limits with no legal restrictions giving driver more choice, flexibility and efficiency to the
trucking companies and to the customers .
When there is a new launch it is quiet essential to make people aware of the new
launched vehicle, find out their reactions and views. In order to survive in the cut throat
competition the competitors and their strategies must be identified .
BRANDING
A brand is the identity of a specific product, service, or business. Branding is the
process of creating distinctive and durable perceptions in the minds of consumers. The
benefits of branding are:-
1. Memorability- It is easier to remember the branded company than the what is its name.
2. Loyalty- When people have a positive experience with a memorable brand, they're more
likely to buy that product or service again than competing brands.
3. Familiarity- Psychologists have shown that familiarity induces liking, and this makes even
non-customers more likely to recommend a brand they know.
1
4. Premium image, premium price- Branding can lift what you sell out of the realm of a
commodity, with customers
willing to pay more for the well-branded product or service.
5. Extensions- With a well-established brand, you can spread the respect you've earned to a
related new product, service or location more easily
6. Greater company equity- Making your company into a brand usually means that you can
get more money for the company when you decide to sell it.
7. Lower marketing expenses- Although you must invest money to create a brand, once it's
created you get a bigger bang for every marketing buck using it.
8. For consumers, less risk- People tend to choose the brand-name supplier over the no-name
one when afraid of the consequences of a mess-up.
POSITIONING
• It means the process by which marketers try to create an image or identity in the
minds of their target market for its product, brand, or organization.
• It is the aggregate perception the market has of a particular company, product or
service in relation to their perceptions of the competitors in the same category.
• It will happen whether or not a company's management is proactive, reactive or
passive about the on-going process of evolving a position. But a company can
positively influence the perceptions through enlightened strategic actions.
• It is the third and the final step of STP(Segmentation, Targeting and Positioning).
• After segmenting a market and then targeting a consumer, you would proceed to
position a product within that market.
• Products or services are 'mapped' together on a 'positioning map'. This allows them to
be compared and contrasted in relation to each other.
• This is the main strength of this tool. Marketers decide upon a competitive position
which enables them to distinguish their own products from the offerings of their
competition (hence the term positioning strategy).
• According to Solomon, position strategy is an essential part in the marketing efforts
because companies have to use the elements in the marketing mix to influence the
customers understanding of the position
• The goal of positioning strategies relates to the management of consumers'
perceptions. However, positioning focuses on the creation of brand associations -
consumers' perceptions of the attributes that differentiate the brand from competitive
offers

COMPETITORS
12
The company was established in 1948 as Ashok Motors, with an aim to assemble
Austin cars. Manufacturing of commercial vehicles was started in 1955 with equity
contribution from Leyland Motors. Today the Company is the flagship of the Hinduja Group,
a British-based and Indian originated transnational conglomerate.
Acquisition of Czech Republic-based Avia. Ashok Leyland (ALL) recently acquired
the truck unit of Czech Republic-based Avia for US$35m. Avia manufactures 6-9 tonne
LCVs and has a capacity of 20,000 units per annum. The acquisition has given ALL direct
access to an entire range of Avia trucks, Avia’s press shop with dies and tools, welding lines,
state-of-the-art paint shop and R&D facilities. ALL has also entered into technology
agreements with Hino Motors of Japan and ZF of Germany to complement its in-house R&D
efforts and developing complementary components and aggregates.
Force Motors

as long-haul trucks, tippers, tractor trailers and multi-axle vehicles in the 16-32 ton range at
its Pithampur plant, with an initial capacity of 24,000 units per annum and at an investment of
Rs7bn. The JV plans to sell nearly half of its production in the domestic market, while the rest
is to be exported to the Middle East, Turkey, Russia, Asia and Africa. Further, the two
companies have formed another JV to manufacture buses in India from end-2007.
Hyundai Motors
The Hyundai Motor Company, a division of the Hyundai Kia Automotive Group, is
South Korea’s largest and the world’s fifth largest automaker in terms of units sold per year.
Headquartered in Seoul, Hyundai operates the world’s largest integrated automobile
manufacturing facility in Ulsan, which is capable of producing 1.6 million units annually. The
Hyundai logo, a slanted, stylized 'H', is said to be symbolic of two people (the company and
customer) shaking hands. Hyundai means "modernity" in Korean.
“Ever since 2000 - when Tata Motors made a hefty Rs 500 crore (Rs 5 billion) loss in
its worst financial performance - the company has been looking at ways to overcome cyclical
ups and downs.”
The company chalked out a two-pronged strategy. The first was the classical route of
trying to balance sales in different markets. Through an overseas push, Tata Motors felt this
could be done. If there was a downturn in one market, an upturn in another could help it tide
13
over fluctuating market situations. The acquisition of Daewoo's commercial vehicles business
in March 2004 was a step in that direction.
The second part of the strategy was to add to its portfolio, products that would largely
be immune to industry fluctuations. One way out: make vehicles that were smaller. Buyers of
small and light commercial vehicles are largely individuals. The 207 DI (small commercial
vehicle two-tonner) launched in August 2002, which had a Tata Mobile chassis and the
successful Tata 407's engine, was one such instance.
The Ace was another part in this product strategy. However, industry analysts say that
developing the one-tonne Ace was a tougher task in many ways than the 207 DI.
The challenges were both internal and external. One was to have the entire
management team on the same wavelength on various operational and developmental issues.
Right costing was another challenge. The vehicle had to be built to a pre-determined
price band, that too at a certain quality standard. If potential buyers were individuals who
would otherwise opt for a three-wheeler, they had to be given a vehicle that would look and
perform better. In this quest, the vehicle cabin incorporated car-like features to stand out in a
crowd of rudimentary three wheelers.
Partly to keep costs under control, the company also banked on outsourcing. Today, a
significant 82 per cent of the Tata Ace is outsourced. Even some of the design elements were
focused on costs. It also paid attention to safety features. For instance, the rearview mirror
was mounted on the windscreen glass instead of the roof of the vehicle.
The logic: the windscreen of a vehicle has the lowest vibration, so the rearview for the
driver will be perfect. It is trying to add value for customers in other ways too. The company
recently introduced a range of Ace accessories like a vehicle protection system, music
systems and even Ganesha idols.
Customer gains
The company also did a market segmentation analysis to understand potential customers
better. There were primarily two sets of customers: entry-cost sensitive customers and others
who valued return-on-investment.
The company decided to focus on the ROI-sensitive customer who would be willing to pay a
slightly higher price, but would require lower operating costs.
Tata Motors also had to address a key concern of commercial vehicle buyers - lead (time
taken to travel a distance) and load (weight it could take). Hence, the Ace was built to achieve
top speeds of 64 kmph compared to 50-56 kmph in the case of three-wheelers.
From the customer’s point of view, it could mean more trips on any given day. In terms of
load bearing capacity, the cargo bed of the Ace was bigger at 2,200X1,500 mm, compared to
an average of 1,950X1,450 mm of other three-wheelers.
There were other benefits, too. In running costs, the company claims that Ace requires an oil
change only after every 9,000 kilometers of driving, compared to 2,500-5,000 kilometers in
the case of three-wheelers. Savings: Rs 1,000-Rs 1,500.
14
“Reach for the stars”
Before the launch of Ace, Tata Motors had to pay attention to one important aspect that they
are not going into the market with the mindset of selling a medium and heavy commercial
vehicle. For instance, medium and heavy commercial vehicles typically cover hundreds of
kilometers at a stretch - even the 207 DI travels an average distance of more than 200
kilometers a day.
Not so for the Ace. The operators of the vehicle travel for a shorter distance as it is primarily
used for last mile transport between the outskirts of a city to the centre (60-100 kilometers).
One fallout: it would be too much to expect owners to drive a longer distance to get to an
after-sales outlet.
So, while focusing on maximum reach it tried to benchmark itself broadly with motorcycles.
Typically, motorcycle manufacturers have a sales or service outlet every 10-20 kilometers.
That scale of reach was not required for selling the Ace.
Nevertheless, Tata Motors had to augment distribution. To increase the number of service
outlets, the company trained automobile garages and branded them Tata-certified service
points.
At present, the company claims to have a sale or authorized service station at every 50-70
kilometers in the states where the Ace is sold.
Now, Tata Motors was ready for the acid test in choosing its entry and market strategy. One
choice was to follow a tried and successful route taken by the 207 DI during launch. The 207
DI made its foray in a smaller market such as the north-east.
At that time, this region was out of market leader, Mahindra & Mahindra’s radar and through
this deliberates strategy, Tata Motors managed to create a market for pick-ups in that region.
But this time, Tata Motors took the battle straight to the enemy camp. With an aggressive
pricing strategy, it launched the Ace in Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and
Maharashtra - 70 per cent of three- wheeler sales happen in these five states.
At a value price point of Rs 220,000, the Ace was targeted to attract buyers who would
otherwise buy three-wheelers at price points from Rs 120,000-Rs 190,000.
Clearly, if the price and product were in place, positioning could not afford to be behind. But
the advertising was careful that it did not hype-up the looks of the Ace.
GLOBAL STRATEGIES
The Tata Motors is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of commercial vehicles
apart from being India’s largest passenger automobile and commercial vehicle. The OICA
ranked it as the world’s 20th largest automaker, based on figures for 2006.
Tata motors from being present as an exporter in 70 countries, the company today
focuses on 15 -20 key countries where it will have a significant presence in terms of volumes
and market share. Apart from this the company has expanded its production and assembly
15
operations to several other countries including South Korea, Thailand, South Africa and
Argentina and is planning to set up plants in Turkey Indonesia and Eastern Europe.
In internationalization the company’s first step was to align the international business
to the two business units — the Passenger Car Business Unit (PCBU) and the Commercial
Vehicle Business Unit (CVBU), to bring greater focus and increased synergy between the
domestic and international operations. Tata motors feel that the international business needs
to be looked at from a perspective that goes beyond volumes and presence in many countries.
According to Dr V. Sumantran, executive director, PCBU, the company has now embarked
on a road where exports are made an integral part of business and they do not think of sales
outside the country as a separate activity but integrated within the mission of each of its
businesses. According to Mr. Ravi Kant, executive director, CVBU in a cyclical business
such as one of their, it is important that they hedge against cyclicality and international
business offers an opportunity as different countries go through peaks and troughs in demand
at different points in times and hence capacity utilization is more effective and risks of
downturns can be mitigated.
Tata motors as part of their business strategy to make an entry in new and yet
uncharted markets entered the market of China and the CIS countries. Besides the assembly
plants that Tata Motors has in Bangladesh and Malaysia, the company’s recent order for 500
buses from Senegal will involve providing technical and commercial assistance to the
Senegalese government for setting up a bus body building plant. Tata Motors has been short-
listed for South Africa’s "Taxi Project" in which the government will provide an entirely new
transport system in that country. A joint venture project for bus body building in Ukraine and
serious due diligence into the opportunities available in the Chinese market are other areas
where Tata Motors is looking to create new opportunities. In addition, inorganic growth
through acquisitions also quickens the process of internationalization of the company. In
2004, it acquired the Daewoo Commercial Vehicle Company of South Korea.
To expand the product portfolio Tata Motors recently introduced the 25MT GVW
Tata Novus from Daewoo’s (South Korea) (TDCV) platform. Tata plans to leverage
on the strong presence of TDCV in the heavy-tonnage range and introduce products in
India at an appropriate time. This was mainly to cater to the international market and
also to cater to the domestic market where a major improvement in the Road
infrastructure was done through the National Highway Development Project
The synergies were significant – a presence in the 250 to 400 HP ranges of trucks is what the
Korean company brings to the table. This complements the existing product range of Tata
Motors which delivers vehicles up to 210 HP.
In March 2005, it acquired a 21% stake in Hispano Carrocera SA, giving it controlling rights
in the company. Tata Motors has also formed a 51:49 joint venture with Marcopolo S.A., a
Brazil-based global leader in bus body building. This joint venture is to manufacture and
assemble fully-built buses and coaches targeted at developing mass rapid transportation
16
systems. The joint venture will absorb technology and expertise in chassis and aggregates
from Tata Motors, and Marcopolo will provide know-how in processes and systems for
bodybuilding and bus body design. On March 26, 2008 Tata Motors agreed to purchase
Jaguar Cars and Land Rover from Ford Motor in a deal worth $2.3bn (£1.15bn). Tata Motors
has also acquired from Ford the rights to three other brand names: Daimler, Lanchester and
Rover. The possible reasons behind the acquisition are:
These are the marquee brands and the legacy of both the Land Rover and Jaguar are
well recognized badges in the up market SUV (sports utility vehicle) and luxury car
segments respectively fuels the Tata motors global aspirations. This buy out
establishes its global footprints as a company with premium brands. Also the company
now can compete with giants like BMW, Mercedes and Audi.
This acquisition also gives Tata motors to access to a readymade product pipelines
and technology. Developing a car from the scratch could otherwise take the company
anywhere between two and five years.
The technology that propels the top-end cars is changing according to auto experts and
the hybrid technology will take over the luxury cars in a decade. Post the takeover the
Tata’s won’t be left over with obsolete technology as the ford’s existing technology
will fill the need gap for Tata’s in the interim.
Innovation, knowledge, commitment and pride are the Tata Motors greatest asset.

History
In 1953, the government of India and the Indian private sector initiated manufacturing
processes to help develop the automobile industry, which had emerged by the 1940s in a
nascent form. Between 1970 to the economic liberalization of 1991, the automobile industry
continued to grow at aslow pace due to the many government restrictions. A number of
Indian manufactures appeared between 1970-1980. A number of foreign firms initiated joint
ventures with Indian companies.

PHARMACEUTICALS
Major pharmaceutical distribution agencies in Bhubaneswar are smaller distribution
agencies so they conduct their logistics operation through local transporters and
courier companies.
Some of the bigger pharmaceuticals distributors like capital enterprises and primal
healthcare had shown some interest in knowing about winger cargo and would contact
if required.
NEWSPAPER INDUSTRY
All the major newspaper companies in Bhubaneswar conduct their local distribution
of newspapers through local vendors.
As the companies does not conduct any distribution work so they were not interested
in winger cargo.
BAKERY
In bakery segment majority of the players are small scale industries they conduct their
local distribution through 3 wheelers and by personal sales.
Some of the bigger players like Mongines conduct their local distribution through
local vendors and they would contact if situation demands.
HOTEL INDUSTRY
In Bhubaneswar all the top hotels we visited does not provide outdoor catering
services so all the hotels we visited were not interested in winger cargo.
CATERING SERVICES
All top rated catering services in Bhubaneswar conduct their local operations through
small commercial vehicles like TATA ACE and 3 wheelers.
Their major dislikes was higher price of the winger cargo.
48
RECOMMENDATIONS
Complete information regarding winger cargo must be provided to the sales executive
and they must be trained basing upon extra benefits that a winger cargo can offer.
While meeting the customers, the sales executive must know the type of business
operation conducted by the customer and type of commercial vehicle used by the
customer for logistics support.
Sales executive must know what are the requirements of the targeted customer for a
commercial vehicle
Sales executive must know detailed specification regarding nearest rival of winger
cargo present in the Bhubaneswar market and should be able to explain the target
customer on demand.
A heavy sales promotion activity IS required because the company has manufactured
a new product which people are unaware of.
Personal meetings and frequent follow ups is required to increase their revenues.
Special arrangements can be made for a meet for the Heads / Owners of member
companies by Invitation at a centralized venue over high tea or dinner depending on
the strength.
49
CONCLUSION
TATA MOTORS is India’s largest automobile industry. Although it has a good brand
value still it faces stiff competiton. Huge advertisement, brand awareness programs, sales
promotional programs, advanced technology-featured product in a comparably less price and
an effective after sales service can enable to attract a considerable number of customers by
the company.
The customers are now made aware of the existence of the vehicle in Bhubaneswar
market. The step is to upgrade the customers by frequently letting them know about the
benefits and the unique features of the vehicle over the existing once.
Any organization can gain a successful position in the market only when it wins the
support of its prospective customers and acquires their loyalty. To achieve this company’s
vision should be customer focused and the strategies should solely focus towards maximizing
of customers benefit and satisfaction.
If the recommendations suggested earlier are incorporated, then WINGER CARGO could
benchmark itself against its competitors in Bhubaneswar as well as Orissa market.
