Asia.
The bajaj company had introduced pulsar bike with 150cc in 2001. After words the
bajaj company keeps on altering the model of the pulsar. Till 2003 they were
modifying pulsar 150cc only than they released pulsar180cc in
2003.simultaneously they introduced 200cc and 220cc in 2005and 2007.
The main objectives of this project are to under stand which strategy bajaj has
used to position pulsar in the market and to study how bajaj pulsar effects the other
two wheelers the methodology of the project is exploratory method and sample
200, geographical area is Hubli.
Introduction
There was a time when the bike companies ignores in the market, they took no any
interest to produced or sell products in the market in India. It was the initial stage
of bike companies in India. As per as the time had passed, the strategy and
marketing style of bike companies had been changed.
The research titled positioning strategy for pulsar and its effect. It helps to
understand which strategy Bajaj Company is using to position the pulsar in the
market. This research is carried out as per the steps of market research process. To
meet the objectives primary research is undertaken.
The Bajaj Group is amongst the top 10 business houses in India. Its footprint
stretches over a wide range of industries, spanning automobiles (two-wheelers and
three-wheelers), home appliances, lighting, iron and steel, insurance, travel and
finance.
The group's flagship company, Bajaj Auto, is ranked as the world's fourth largest
two- and three- wheeler manufacturer and the Bajaj brand is well-known across
several countries in Latin America, Africa, Middle East, South and South East
Asia.
The present Chairman of the group, Rahul Bajaj, took charge of the business in
1965. Under his leadership, the turnover of the Bajaj Auto the flagship company
has gone up from Rs.72 million to Rs.46.16 billion (USD 936 million), its product
portfolio has expanded from one to and the brand has found a global market. He is
one of India's most distinguished business leaders and internationally respected for
his business acumen and entrepreneurial spirit.
Design of the study
The design of the study determines the steps to be followed to conduct the study
and the important topics, which are to be covered in the study.
This research is carried out as per the steps of market research process. To meet the
objectives primary research is undertaken.
A detailed design of the study is considered to be necessary in order to compare the

actual theory with that observed in picture.
The basic study on attempt has been made to separate the various respondents on
basis of their age, income, education, profession and external factors.
Statement of the problem
A survey study to positioning strategy for pulsar and its effect in Hubli City
It is to know the opinion of the consumer about the Bajaj pulsar bike.
Objectives
There are following objectives of the project:-
1. To under stand which strategy Bajaj has used to position pulsar in the market
2. To study how Bajaj pulsar effects the other two wheelers
3. To study why the customer use particular brand
4. To study which factors has influenced the customer to buy Bajaj pulsar
5. To know the who are the competitors for Bajaj pulsar

Need for the Study
In those days, the bike market is the one of the best opportunity for the segment
bike sector in the India. It is wider and less competitive market for the bike. As the
income level of the consumers increasing, the demand of car is increasing
continuously. The various need of the study is given as follows:-
To determine the raising demand of Bajaj Pulsar bikes in Hubli city?
To analyze the features which are expecting by the customer in a bike?

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
SAMPLE DESIGN
SAMPLE UNIT: - All working people are included both the genders i.e. males and
females irrespective of their education level.
SAMPLE SIZE: - 200
SAMPLE REGION: - Hubli city
SAMPLING PROCEDURE: - Random Sampling

DATA COLLECTION METHOD
PRIMARY DATA
Primary data was collected through a self administrated questionnaire. This

questionnaire aims to gather information related to various Branded bikes
SECONDARY DATA
Secondary data was collected through magazines, research papers, internet etc.
Data collection
Questionnaire design
As the questionnaire is self administrated one, the survey is kept simple and user
friendly. Words used in questionnaire are readily understandable to all respondent.
Also technical jargons are avoided to ensure that there is no confusion for
respondents.
Definition of the Problem
The study of opportunity for bike companies in the market is a sum total of
different analytical survey of different bike companies in the Hubli area. In one
sense, we can say that it is determination of how much market captured by
different bike companies
Changing lifestyles
Rising per capital income, increased literacy and fast urbanization have caused fast
growth and change in demand patterns. The rising aspiration levels, increase in
spending power has led to a change in the consumption pattern.
Hypothesis
I am also a citizen of rural area. I use my experiences and perceptions as

hypothesis towards to made this project.
Geographical area of study
This geographical area is concerned to the where I conducted serve to analyze

which is the best bike brand in the Hubli citys.
I conducted serve in the serve in Hubli City areas like Gokul road, CBT, Aruna
colony, Navanagar, Maruti Nagar, Sirur park circle, Desh pandye nagar etc.
Limitations
While surveying I encounter with some problems like some people were not
willing to respond and few of them who responded were in hurry hence the active
participation was lacking.
Due to which we faced difficulties in collecting information regarding our

questionnaire.
Another problem which we face was that people were hesitating to give
information about their opinion. Except it, the sample size we have taken for
survey was small and its a difficult task to draw accurate conclusion or reach to an
exact result on the basis of limited sample size. Moreover, our investment was
limited and time was also less to go in depth.
Threats to us are that- as people were hesitating to give their opinion and details so
there is chance of error regarding opinion.

Competitors of engine and Transmission

This must be easiest section to decide, since three of the competitors Hero
Hondas Hunk, CBZ X-Treme and Hondas unicorn share the same engine.
Unicorns 149.2cc was the least power producer yet it scores full points for its
refinement. Unicorns engine develops 13.3bhp at 8000rpm and 12.75Nm of
6500rpm. Hero Honda offers the same engine with little more power (0.8bhp) for
both the Hunk and the CBZ X-treme. Pulsar 150cc engine is one of the best
engines made by the bajaj. The twin spark 149cc engine produces 14bhp at
8500rpm. Suzuki GS 150R is an air-cooled 4 stroke, SOHC with a displacement
of 150cc with max power of 13.8 bhp @ 8500 rpm and max torque of 13.8Nm @
6000 rpm. The transmission is 6 speeds with front disc brake and rear swing arm
type coil spring which is oil and gas dumped. The fuel tank capacity is 15.5 liters
with a ground clearance of 160mm weighing and 149 kgs (curb mass) The Suzuki
GS 150R comes with the features like digital speedometer with dual modes , rear
suspension with separate reservoir Tank, sporty headlight , LED tail Lamp and
integrated Rear turn Signal and new engine design with SJCS (Suzuki Jet cooling
system) I took a TD of the Suzuki GS 150R the pros that i noted was:-The engine
was refined thereby giving a smooth ride the pick up was good Gear shifting was
smooth Front disc brake had a good grip Stylish Sporty Design 6 Gears On road
mileage of 45-50 kmpl Engine Balancer technology to reduce the vibration caused
by the engine. TVS apache rtr is powered by a 160cc engine which produces
15.2bhp at 8500 rpm and 13.1Nm at 6000 rpm. Clearly, Apache RTR is the best
among the traits in terms of performance. Apache RTR has higher power to
weight ratio 111.7bhp/ton. Apache can push the red line even up to 12000rpm. The
extra 10cc plays a main role for the RTR and it is the only bike in the segment
capable of breaching the 110kmph mark with appreciable control. All the bikes in
the 150cc segment breathes through CV carburetor, in India, Fuel Injection (FI) is
yet to make a wave. All the bikes Pulsar, Unicorn, CBZ Xtreme, apache RTR and
Hunk features 5-speed (1-down 4-up pattern) gearbox. Their way of functioning
and design varies. Apache RTR, Hero Honda Hunk and CBZ Xtreme targets young
customers and hence gear shifting is through toe levers. In Unicorn and Pulsar
150cc it is through heel and toe levers.
Hubli market is one of the best opportunities for the bike sector. In some sense we
can say that Hubli city market is future of bikes. The life style of Hubli city
consumers is changing.
The Indian market and the marketing strategy have become the latest marketing
buzz word for most of the bike majors. They added the strategies of different bike
companies for capturing Hubli city market like Bajaj, Hero Honda, TVS, Honda,
Yamaha, Suzuki,
Factors such as strong distribution network and market awareness are few
prerequisites for making an impression in the bikes market.
The characteristics of the market in terms of low and spread out population and
limited purchasing power make it a difficult market to capture.
The Bottom of the pyramid marketing strategies and the 4 A's model of
Availability, Affordability, Acceptability and Awareness provide us with a means of
developing appropriate strategies to tackle the market, it is a study of different car
companies used by Hubli city consumers. It will provide information about
consumers preferences towards a good car company which is too unique and
different from those above researches.
What is the marketing strategy?
It differs. We have started selling high-end products like the Pulsar in Indonesia
where the Japanese control over 90 per cent of the market. The Nigerian market is
completely Chinese, dominated by very cheap and poor quality products. Seventy
per cent of motor cycles are used as taxis in Nigeria where people want a strong
motor cycle with a long seat. So, we launched the Boxer S - a new avataar of the
Boxer we used to sell in India. We launched the product in July 2006 and it now
sells 5,000 a month. The selling point in Nigeria is the Bajaj brand which offers
high quality, high reliability and high fuel efficiency. In Indonesia, the Bajaj brand
reflects high performance and high price.
What is the branding strategy?
We sell under the Bajaj brand. The only exception is Kawasaki with whom we
enjoy a long-standing relationship - in some markets like the Philippines;
Kawasaki sells our products under our brand. They also sell our motor cycles in
some Latin American markets as Kawasaki. Where they think they can charge a
higher price, they put their brand on the product.
What happened to the Pakistan export plans?
The Pakistan government is not keen to get motor cycles from India.
Once you export a million vehicles, how does your global position change?
We are the fourth largest two-wheeler maker after Honda, Yamaha and Suzuki in
the global market of 40 million units. The global market is growing at 3-4 per cent
a year, compared to our growth of 15-20 per cent (exports are growing even faster).
At this rate, our global market share should double in three years. We are very
close to Suzuki now. I think a few Chinese players may enter in the top-five
bracket.
Do you run exports out of India?
Three years ago, our entire team was in India. But this didn't work since many
markets are in different time zones. So, we set up an office in Mexico to serve
south and Central America; the Indonesia office looks after Indonesia and the
Philippines; the Dubai office takes care of Africa and the Middle East; and we've
put our teams in a few significant countries like Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Egypt and
Nigeria.
How do you tackle fakes?
Our products and brands are registered, so by law, no one can copy them. But if
there's a copy, we take legal action. We saw copies of the Pulsar in Sri Lanka, for
instance, and went to the court and got an order against the Sri Lankan importer
who was importing the products from a Chinese player. Sri Lanka is the only place
where we sought legal recourse - we saw a few copies of the Pulsar in Iran. We'll
take legal recourse if we see its growing.
Will you buy foreign brands to grow overseas?
The combined market share of Honda, Yamaha and Suzuki is nearly 90 per cent in
most of the places we want to be, so there is no one left to target. Also, what do we
get by acquisition? We don't need any one's product. We might look at a company
which has a good distribution network. We are now creating the network.
Key features of bajaj pulsar bikes
Engine Oil Cooler to control the temperature and maintain the high speed and rpm.
Digital Odometer, Digital Speedo Meter, Digital Fuel Gauge and two Digital Trip
Meters contribute to enhanced riding comfort. Tubeless tyres for better road grip
and stability. First bike in India with large 33 mm front fork for better shock
absorbing ability. Constant velocity (CV) carburetor for high level of
performance.zSplit seat for better riding and sitting comfort.
Pulsar bike have one unique feature
The all new Pulsar DTSi is packed with the path breaking next generation
technology of digital biking. Its various digital systems like capacitor discharge
ignition (CDI) system, Digital console and Digital Twin Spark ignition (DTSi)
provides efficient fuel combustion and better performance under all conditions.
The latest DTSi engine of Bajaj Pulsar DTSi, with twin spark plugs and 8 bit
microprocessor chip, generates the pulsating 18 ps of power to excite the bikers
and its advanced Exhaust TEC technology ensures the great performance at lower
rpm. The muscular aerodynamic shape of Pulsar DTSi and its 1350 mm of wheel
base with 17" large alloy wheels give this bajaj bike a robust presence on the road.
For the first time in India, Pulsar DTSi is equipped with an Oil cooler, tube less
tyres and new digital console that makes the Pulsar most sporty and stylish two
wheelers on Indian roads.
CHAPTER.3
Opinion of study
After a good deal of consumer survey and marketing research, I have collected a
good collection of data. The analyses of those datas are given as follows:-
In the initial years, the Hubli city consumers preferred 150cc segment bike etc. but
from the last period of five years, the preference of Hubli city consumers towards
bikes has been changed.
An extremely large number of bikes of different companies are selling in Hubli

city market. The Hubli city consumers preference towards the different bike
companies are given below
