INTRODUCTION
ry
(FY1995-2004)
4
After facing its worst recession during the early 1990s, the industry
bounced back with a 25% increase in volume sales in FY1995.
However, the momentum could not be sustained and sales growth
dipped to 20% in FY1996 and further down to 12% in FY1997. The
economic slowdown in FY1998 took a heavy toll of two-wheeler sales,
with the year-on-year sales (volume) growth rate declining to 3% that
year. However, sales picked up thereafter mainly on the strength of an
increase in the disposable income of middle-income salaried people
(following the implementation of the Fifth Pay Commission's
recommendations), higher access to relatively inexpensive financing,
and increasing availability of fuel efficient two-wheeler models.
Nevertheless, this phenomenon proved short-lived and the two-wheeler
sales declined marginally in FY2001. This was followed by a revival in
sales growth for the industry in FY2002. Although, the overall two-
wheeler sales increased in FY2002, the scooter and moped segments
faced de-growth. FY2003 also witnessed a healthy growth in overall
two-wheeler sales led by higher growth in motorcycles even as the sales
of scooters and mopeds continued to decline. Healthy growth in two-
wheeler sales during FY2004 was led by growth in motorcycles even as
the scooters segment posted healthy growth while the mopeds continued
to decline. Figure 1 presents the variations across various product sub-
segments of the two-wheeler industry between FY1995 and FY2004.

of scooters and mopeds stood lower at 16% and 5%, respectively.
Figure 2
Trends in Segmental Share in Industry Sales
(FY1996-9MFY2005)
Over the past 10-15 years the demographic profile of the typical two-
wheeler customer has changed. The customer is likely to be salaried and
in the first job. With a younger audience, the attributes that are sought of
a two-wheeler have also changed. Following the opening up of the
10
economy and the increasing exposure levels of this new target audience,
power and styling are now as important as comfort and utility.
11
efficiency, greater acceleration and more environment-friendliness.
Given the declining difference in prices of scooters and motorcycles in
the past few years, the preference has shifted towards motorcycles.
Besides a change in demographic profile, technology and reduction in
the price difference between motorcycles and scooters, another factor
that has weighed in favour of motorcycles is the high re-sale value they
offer. Thus, the customer is willing to pay an up-front premium while
purchasing a motorcycle in exchange for lower maintenance and a
relatively higher resale value.

Figure 3
Shares of Two-Wheeler Manufacturers in Industry
Sales (FY2000-9MFY2005)
Although the three players have dominated the market for a relative long
period of time, their individual market shares have undergone a major
change. Bajaj Auto was the undisputed market leader till FY2000,
accounting for 32% of the two-wheeler industry volumes in the country
that year. Bajaj Auto dominance arose from its complete hold over the
scooter market. However, as the demand started shifting towards
motorcycles, the company witnessed a gradual erosion of its market
share. HHML, which had concentrated on the motorcycle segment, was
the main beneficiary, and almost doubled its market share from 20% in
FY2000 to 40% in 9MFY2005 to emerge as the market leader. TVS, on
the other hand, witnessed an overall decline in market share from 22% in
FY2000 to 18% in 9MFY2005. The share of TVS in industry sales
13
fluctuated on a year on year basis till FY2003 as it changed its product
mix but has declined since then.

.BAJAJ Auto limited
Bajaj Auto is a major Indian automobile manufacturer. It is India's
largest and the world's 4th largest two- and three-wheeler maker. It is
based in Pune, Maharashtra, with plants in Akurdi and Chakan
(Pune),Waluj (near Aurangabad) and Pantnagar in Uttaranchal. Bajaj
Auto makes and exports motorscooters, motorcycles and the auto
rickshaw.
The Forbes Global 2000 list for the year 2005 ranked Bajaj Auto at
1946.
Over the last decade, the company has successfully changed its image
from a scooter manufacturer to a two wheeler manufacturer. Its product
range encompasses scooterettes, scooters and motorcycles. Its real
growth in numbers has come in the last four years after successful
introduction of a few models in the motorcycle segment.
The company is headed by Rahul Bajaj who is worth more than US$1.5
billion.
Bajaj Auto came into existence on November 29, 1945 as M/s Bachraj
Trading Corporation Private Limited. It started off by selling imported
two- and three-wheelers in India. In 1959, it obtained license from the
Government of India to manufacture two- and three-wheelers and it
went public in 1960. In 1970, it rolled out its 100,000th vehicle. In 1977,
15
it managed to produce and sell 100,000 vehicles in a single financial
year. In 1985, it started producing at Waluj in Aurangabad. In 1986, it
managed to produce and sell 500,000 vehicles in a single financial year.
In 1995, it rolled out its ten millionth vehicle and produced and sold 1
million vehicles in a year.
BAJAJ PULSAR
Before the introduction of the Pulsar, the Indian motorcycle market trend
was towards fuel efficient, small capacity motorcycles (that formed the
80-125 cc class). Bigger motorcycles with higher capacity virtually did
not exist (except for Enfield Bullet). The launch and success of Hero
Honda CBZ in 1999 showed that there was demand for performance
bikes. Bajaj took the cue from there on and launched the Pulsar twins in
India on November 24, 2001. Since the introduction and success of Bajaj
Pulsar, the Indian youth began expecting high power and other features
from affordable motorcycles.

DTSi
DTSi stands for Digital Twin Spark Ignition, a Bajaj Auto trademark.
Bajaj Auto holds an Indian patent for the DTSi technology. The Alfa
Romeo Twin-Spark engines, the BMW F650 Funduro which was sold in
India from 1995 to 1997 also had a twin-spark plug technology, and the
Rotax motorcycle engines,more recently Honda's iDSI Vehicle engines
use a similar arrangement of two spark-plugs. However very few small
capacity engines did eventually implement such a scheme in their
production prototypes.

Objective of Study
The objective of this research is to determine the customer as well as
retailers preferences regarding different brands of motorcycles which
result in their market share. It involves the study of consumers’ buying
behaviour and attitudes towards a variety of attributes and factors, which
help them in decision-making.
The brand we chose to focus on was BAJAJ AUTO Ltd.’s PULSAR
brand of bikes. We studied the company profile, its market structure, the
brand awareness, growth rates and popularity among consumers so as to
forecast the future sales and understand the growth trends.
We designed a questionnaire to survey various dealers and consumers to
understand the demand and supply situation of the bike market.
Secondary data from the internet has also been used for effective
analysis.

Methodology

Market share and Growth rates
Two- wheeler sales in the country have sky rocketed in the recent years,
and the annual sales of motorcycles in India expected to cross the 10
million mark by 2010. The low penetration of two-wheelers in the
country 31 two-wheelers per 1000 citizens (2004) leaves immense scope
for the growth of the market. Overall the industry sales of two-wheelers
have grown by 15% from 6.57 million in 2004/2005 to 7.57 million in
2005/2006. The buoyant Indian economy with a growth rate of around
8% per annum is further expected to fuel the growth of two wheelers in
the country.
The share of motorcycles have increased over the years, while that of other two-
wheelers like geared scooters, scooterettes and mopeds have shown a negative
growth or remained stagnant. The two-wheelers have penetrated 7% of rural house
hold and 24% of urban markets, thus it leaves an immense scope for the market to
grow.
Bajaj Auto one of the leading producers of automobiles in the country has been
able to sell close to 2.3 million vehicles in 2005/2006, the sales of the company
grew by almost 31%. The company registered a 32% growth in the sales of
motorcycles much above the industry average of 19%. Bajaj Auto has emerged as
a market leader in the entry level or price segment motorcycle with the Bajaj CT
100 accounting for nearly 40% of the market share. It also commands a 62%
market share in the premium segment of motorcycles with products like the Bajaj
Pulsar DTSI. TVS Motors which has lots of firsts to its credit in the two-wheeler
sector in the country was able to sell 1.34 million units during the same period thus
registering an overall growth of 15% from the previous year. In the motorcycle
segment the company's growth in sales was in sync with the industry average.
f this figures have daunted you the best is yet to come, the country leader
in two-wheelers hero honda have crossed the three million mark during
the year 2005/2006 which is a good few lakhs more than its nearest
competitor Bajaj Auto. The company accounted for nearly 40% of then
20
two-wheeler market. In the motorcycle segment the company has been
able to attain a market share of about 50%. The segment in which hero
honda has emerged as a clear winner is the Deluxe segment, which is the
largest segment in the motorcycles category, with its flagship family of
motorcycles splendor selling over 1.2 million units which is just a shade
less than all the two wheelers sold by TVS during the same year.

period. The figures are provided by the Society of automobile
Manufactures Association (SIAM).
