EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The main purpose of the project was to determine the maket share of coca cola in Modern Trade of Lucknow. Company sale do not reveal how well the company is performing relative to competitors. To access the relative performance, market share analysis is done. The companys overall market share is its sales expressed as a percentage of total market sales. Indian soft drink market today constitute two bif giant players coca-cola and pepsico. Thanx to the liberalization policy adopted by the government which has led to the availability of these global brands in the Indian market, these companys have brought with them the concept of non- alchoholic carbonated flavored and sweetened beverages. Soft drinks are generally packed in 200ml, 500ml, 1000ml, 1500ml, 2000ml and come in variety of flavors comes in glass as well as plastic bottles. Since so many changes have occurred due to ever changing government policies and customers demand. To cope up with this industry has also gone for many changes,its very much ephasisizing on advertisemnts to increase sales and be in competition. With introduction of fruit pulp based soft drinks , packaged in card board carton known as tetra pack has been introduced in the market. Coca cola recently used tetra pack of maaza, which is highly in demand and cokes new flavor vanilla coke which doesnt able to gain the attention of people in lucknow. After 1994 the eminent re-entry of coca cola, Indian soft drink industry in heading for two gaints war to capture the market. It has introduced various sharp and efficient tools like tor packages, gifts, prices and other avenues to enhance social status and satisfying personal egos also. AS we know that there is cut throught competition between coke and pepsi, coca coal should give suppress the sale od pepsi by giving proper schemes and discounts to

retailers at right time at right place in right ways which ultimately increases the sale of the company.

On the basis of data analysis the increase in price of coca cola product didnt affect too much and the ratio of maaza is more than pepsi.

India: Our History in India

Coca-Cola India has made significant investments to build and continually improve its business in India, including new production facilities, wastewater treatment plants, distribution systems and marketing equipment. During the past decade, The Coca-Cola System has invested more than US $1 billion in India, making Coca-Cola one of the countrys top international investors and in 2003, Coca-Cola India pledged to invest a further $100 million in its operations.

The Coca-Cola System in India includes 24 Company-owned bottling operations and another 25 franchisee-owned bottling operations that directly employ 5,500 local people and create jobs for another 150,000.

Virtually all the goods and services required to produce and market Coca-Cola products locally including our Kinley water brand launched in 2000, Shock, an energy drink launched in 2001, and Sunfill, our first powdered concentrate, also launched in 2001 are made in India, ensuring that the benefits of such enterprises remain in the local communities in which they operate.

For as long as weve been in India, The Coca-Cola Company and our independent bottlers have been engaged at the international, national and community levels to support programs that protect the environment, conserve water, promote education, and provide healthcare. Sharing Universal Joy through Coca-Cola

The history of Coca-Cola is a story of special moments - times with family and friends and special occasions when Coke was naturally there. Every person who drinks a Coca-Cola enjoys a moment of refreshment - and shares an experience that millions of others have savoured. And all of those individual experiences combined have created a worldwide phenomenon - a truly global brand that plays its own small part on the world stage.

Coca-Cola, the corporation nourishing the global community with the worlds largest selling soft drink concentrates since 1886, returned to India in 1993 after a 16 year hiatus, giving a new thumbs up to the Indian soft drink market. In the same year, the Company took over ownership of the nations top soft-drink brand and bottling network. Its no wonder our brands have assumed an iconic status in the minds of the worlds

consumers. A Healthy Growth to The Indian Economy Ever since, Coca-Cola India has made significant investments to build and continually consolidate its business in the country, including new production facilities, waste water treatment plants, distribution systems, and marketing channels. Coca-Cola India is among the countrys top international investors, having invested more than US$ 1 billion in India in the first decade, and further pledged another US$100 million in 2003 for its operations. A Pure Commitment to The Indian Economy The Company has shaken up the Indian carbonated drinks market greatly, giving consumers the pleasure of world-class drinks to fill up their hydration, refreshment, and

nutrition needs. It has also been instrumental in giving an exponential growth to the countrys job listings.

Freestyle In 2009 the company introduced a new touch screen vending machine mixes from among Coca-Colas existing as well as new flavors producing more than 100 custom flavors. Testing began in Southern California, Georgia and Utah in July 2009 with 60 locations around the country planned by the end of the summer. History The Coca-Cola Company was originally established as the J. S. Pemberton Medicine Company, a co-partnership between Dr. John Stith Pemberton and Ed Holland .[5] The company was formed to sell three main products: Pemberton's French Wine Cola (later known as Coca-Cola), Pemberton's Indian Queen Hair Dye, and Pemberton's Globe Flower Cough Syrup.[5]

In 1884, the company became a stock company and the name was changed to Pemberton Chemical Company.[5] The new president was D. D. Doe while Ed Holland became the new Vice-President.[5] Pemberton stayed on as the superintendent.[5] The company's factory was located at No. 107, Marietta St.[5] Three years later, the company was again changed to Pemberton Medicine Company, another co-partnership, this time between Pemberton, A. O. Murphy, E. H. Bloodworth, and J. C. Mayfield.[5]

Finally in October 1888, the company received a charter with an authorized capital of $50,000.[5] The charter became official on January 15, 1889. By this time, the company had expanded their offerings to include Pemberton's Orange and Lemon Elixir. Revenue

The Coca-Cola Company North America offices in Sugar Land, Texas, United StatesAccording to the 2005 Annual Report,[6] the company sells beverage products in more than 200 [7] countries. The report further states that of the more than 50 billion beverage servings of all types consumed worldwide every day, beverages bearing the

trademarks owned by or licensed to Coca-Cola account for approximately 1.5 billion. Of these, beverages bearing the trademark "Coca-Cola" or "Coke" accounted for approximately 78% of the Company's total gallon sales.

Also according to the 2007 Annual Report, Coca-Cola had gallon sales distributed as follows:

37% in the United States 43% in Mexico, Brazil, Japan and the People's Republic of China 20% spread throughout the rest of the world. Bottlers Main article: List of assets owned by The Coca-Cola Company In general, The Coca-Cola Company (TCCC) and/or subsidiaries only produces (or produce) syrup concentrate which is then sold to various bottlers throughout the world who hold a Coca-Cola franchise. Coca-Cola bottlers, who hold territorially exclusive contracts with the company, produce finished product in cans and bottles from the concentrate in combination with filtered water and sweeteners. The bottlers then sell, distribute and merchandise the resulting Coca-Cola product to retail stores, vending machines, restaurants and food service distributors.

One notable exception to this general relationship between TCCC and bottlers is fountain syrups in the United States, where TCCC bypasses bottlers and is responsible for the manufacture and sale of fountain syrups directly to authorized fountain wholesalers and some fountain retailers.

In 2005, The Coca-Cola Company had equity positions in 51 unconsolidated bottling, canning and distribution operations which produced approximately 58% of volume. Significant investees include:

By: South Asia Correspondents, India Published: May 05, 2009 India - Taking the direct advertising wars and spoof brawls of the cola giants a step further, Coca Cola is deploying ambush marketing tactics during the Indian Premier League's second season. Consider this. Both PepsiCo's Youngistaan' brand ambassadors - Virender Sehwag, captain of Delhi Daredevils, and Ishant Sharma, member of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) - have been formally present at various promotional activities for arch-rival CocaCola India, simply because Coca-Cola is the associate sponsor and the official pouring partner for both Delhi Daredevils and Kolkata Knight Riders. Sehwag, for instance, attended a special send-off ceremony for Delhi Daredevils organised by Coca-Cola India. At the event, Sehwag, along with Coke brand ambassador Gautam Gambhir, unveiled a limited edition bottle of Coca-Cola for IPL.

MARKETING STRATEGIES

Though we heavily rely on historical performance, the figures reported in this report are not historical but are forecasts and projections for the coming fiscal year. The forecasts are updated quarterly. This particular report was updated in the last quarter. In order to maintain comparability over time and across companies and countries, we use an index system. In the case of a firms assets, we treat the total assets as equaling 100, irrespective of the value of the local currency. All other assets are then calculated as a percent from total assets. In this way, the structure of the firms assets can be easily interpreted and compared with international benchmarks. For liabilities, total liabilities and equity are indexed to equal to 100. For the income statement, total revenue is indexed to equal 100, and all other figures are calculated as a percent of these figures. Ratios are projected using raw financial statistics and, as ratios, are therefore comparable. The source(s) for the various raw statistics include public filings, corporate releases, and various other data sources. Given a companys financial structure, the resulting figures are benchmarked across leading competitors. In choosing the leading competitors, Icon Group chooses only those firms with sound financial situations or those not undergoing radical restructuring, or where random volatility, mergers, or bankruptcy affects financial performance. Since the calculation of competitors benchmarks proceeds in a similar fashion, but are aggregated across all competitors, one can directly conduct a financial gap analysis. Here, Icon Group graphically reports, for each part of the financial statement, the larger gaps that the firm has vis--vis the leading competitors. A gap need not be a bad sign. Rather, it is simply a substantial difference that might merit further attention or signal a firms relative strength or weakness for the coming fiscal year. Again, all figures are projections, so due caution is required

Mumbai: Coca-Cola Co. plans to invest $250 million (Rs1,040 crore) and enter into newer categories to boost operations in the Indian market. We will be spending around $250 million in the next three years for setting up of infrastructure and strengthening sales and distribution activities, said Venkatesh Kini, vice-president, marketing, Coca-Cola India. Venkatesh Kini, vice-president, marketing, CocaCola India; Atul Singh, president and CEO, CocaCola India and Prasoon Joshi, executive chairman and regional creative director, South and South-East Asia, McCann-Erickson, at a press conference in New Delhi on Friday

India has been one of the most difficult markets for Coca-Cola, where it managed to achieve a breakeven just last year. The cola major had re-entered India in 1993 after a gap of 16 years and, in the past four quarters, has started growing sales with the latest quarter sales up 12%. Now the company is betting big on India and plans to introduce brands from its parent companys portfolio and expanding its newer segments. We are anticipating the future needs and exploring a wide range of products such as flavoured water and teas. The company is also evaluating getting into categories such as energy drinks, sports drink and juices, said Kini. Coca-Cola recently acquired US vitamin water maker Energy Brands Inc. (aka Glaceau) for $4.1 billion to boost its lagging position in the race to dominate the fast growing market for non-carbonated drinks. With an aim to boost the relatively slower growth of carbonated drinks (at 6% annually) in India, the cola major also announced the launch of Indianized drinks, such as aam panna, and the roll-out of its juice brand Minute Maid (present only in South India) across India. With these launches, the company will compete with its archrival PepsiCo India Holdings Pvt. Ltd in the non-carbonated drinks space. Earlier this year, Pepsico India announced its plans to launch traditional drinks such as nimbu-paani, aam-panna and several milk-based drinks over the next three years, besides adding new variants to its existing juice line-up under the Tropicana brand. According to Datamonitor, a UK-based consumer research company, the carbonated soft drinks segment, which accounts for the bulk of the revenue of both companies, grew at a compound annual growth rate of only around 1% between 1999 and 2006. An analysis by the agency revealed that the soft drinks industry in India, which includes carbonated soft drinks, juices, water and other drinks, grew 6% from $3.15 billion in 2004 to $3.34 billion in 2006. Of this, the carbonated segment grew from $1.31 billion to $1.32 billion. Emerging markets, such as China and India, are expected to perform well and stimulate Cokes sales and profit growth, according to a recent report by A.G. Edwards & Sons, Inc., a US based brokerage firm. However, continued weakness in carbonated soft drinks (greater than 80% of Cokes volume) is a risk to Coca-Colas valuation, said the report. Coca-Cola India also said that the parent company would seek Indias help for global services in area such as engineering, finance, marketing, and technical research and development. India is already one of the sourcing hub for talent and back-office operations and we plan to take it further, said Kini. Also on the companys agenda is setting up a retail university in India, primarily for the unorganized retailers such as local shopkeepers and paanwallahs.

COCA COLA INDIA MARKETING VP MOVES TO ATLANTA Coca cola has said that venkatesh kini, vice president for marketing in india, has relocated to his global headquarters in atlanta, US, as vice president for juice marketing, according to an indian report.

MARKET SHARE ANALYSIS


Company sales do not reveal how the company is performing relative to competitors. For this purpose management needs to track its market share. Logo up the companys market share goes up so company is gaining on competitors. There are four different measures for market share : 1over all market share : the companys over all market share is its scale expressed as a percentage of total market sale. Two decision are necessary to use this measure.

To use unit sales I hav eused in the project Defining the total market In this project all the brands of coca-cola are included in total sales & the brands like milk badam, lassi & juices etc. are not included. 2Served market share : the companys served market share is its sales expressed as percentage of total sales to its served market. Its served market is all the buyers who would be able and willing to buy its poducts.

GAP ANANLYSIS
In business and economics, gap analysis is a tool that helps a company to compare its actual performance with its potential performance. At its core are two questions: "Where are we?" and "Where do we want to be?". If a company or organization is not making the best use of its current resources or is forgoing investment in capital or technology, then it may be producing or performing at a level below its potential. This concept is similar to the base case of being below one's production possibilities frontier. The goal of gap analysis is to identify the gap between the optimized allocation and integration of the inputs, and the current level of allocation. This helps provide the company with insight into areas which could be improved. The gap analysis process involves determining, documenting and approving the variance between business requirements and current capabilities. Gap analysis naturally flows from benchmarking and other assessments. Once the general expectation of performance in the industry is understood, it is possible to compare that expectation with the company's current level of performance. This comparison becomes the gap analysis. Such analysis can be performed at the strategic or operational level of an organization. Gap analysis is a formal study of what a business is doing currently and where it wants to go in the future. It can be conducted, in different perspectives, as follows: Organization (e.g., human resources) Business direction Business processes Information technology Gap analysis provides a foundation for measuring investment of time, money and human resources required to achieve a particular outcome (e.g. to turn the salary payment process from paper-based to paperless with the use of a system). Note that 'GAP analysis' has also been used as a means for classification of how well a product or solution meets a targeted need or set of requirements. In this case, 'GAP' can be used as a ranking of 'Good', 'Average' or 'Poor'. This terminology does appear in the PRINCE2 project management publication from the OGC.

Definition Technique for determining the steps to be taken in moving from a current state to a desired future-state. It begins with (1) listing of characteristic factors (such as attributes, competencies, performance levels) of the present situation ("what is"), (2) cross-lists factors required to achieve the future objectives ("what should be"), and then (3) highlights the 'gaps' that exist and need to be 'filled.' Also called need-gap analysis, needs analysis, and needs assessment Gap analysis and new products The need for new products or additions to existing lines may have emerged from portfolio analyses, in particular from the use of the Boston Consulting Group Growth-share matrix, or the need will have emerged from the regular process of following trends in the requirements of consumers. At some point a gap will have emerged between what the existing products offer the consumer and what the consumer demands. That gap has to be filled if the organization is to survive and grow. To identify a gap in the market, the technique of gap analysis can be used. Thus an examination of what profits are forecasted for the organization as a whole compared with where the organization (in particular its shareholders) 'wants' those profits to be represents what is called the 'planning gap': this shows what is needed of new activities in general and of new products in particular. Product Gap The product gap, which could also be described as the segment or positioning gap, represents that part of the market from which the individual organization is excluded because of product or service characteristics. This may have come about because the market has been segmented and the organization does not have offerings in some segments, or it may be because the positioning of its offering effectively excludes it from certain groups of potential consumers, because there are competitive offerings much better placed in relation to these groups. This segmentation may well be the result of deliberate policy. Segmentation and positioning are very powerful marketing techniques; but the trade-off, to be set against the improved focus, is that some parts of the market may effectively be

put beyond reach. On the other hand, it may frequently be by default; the organization has not thought about its positioning, and has simply let its offerings drift to where they now are. The product gap is probably the main element of the planning gap in which the organization can have a productive input; hence the emphasis on the importance of correct positioning.

Market gap analysis In the type of analysis described above, gaps in the product range are looked for. Another perspective (essentially taking the `product gap' to its logical conclusion) is to look for gaps in the 'market' (in a variation on `product positioning', and using the multidimensional `mapping'), which the company could profitably address, regardless of where the current products stand. Many marketers would, question the worth of the theoretical gap analysis described earlier. Instead, they would immediately start proactively to pursue a search for a competitive advantage.

LUCKNOW AS A MARKET
A market comprising o both semi-urban and semi-rural type of consumers. Having its dimensions stretching from lucknow itself of various small homelets situated as for 90 to 120 kilometers.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Most business that fails to do so because they have not obtained analysed or acted upon market information regarding their product or service, information that is readily available. Whether the product is confectionery bar or an engineering product, the market plan need to cover area such as the product specification and its relation to the consumer needs and requirement, branding pricing distribution method, advertising support market definition and segmentation forecast, sales levels etc. each of these decision require information from the market to increase the chance of getting it right.

DEFINING MARKET RESEARCH

In 1987, the American management association adopted a new definition of Market research. Market research is the function, which link the customer and public to the marketer through information that is used to identify and define marketing opportunity and problem, refine and revalue marketing actions, monitor marketing performance . Marketing research is the systematic design, collection, analysis and reporting of data and findings relevant to a specific marketing situation facing the company. And improve understanding of marketing as a process. Its no longer enough to satisfy customers, you must delight them.

Effective marketing research involves the following 5 steps :-

1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Define the problem and research objective. Develop the research plan. Collect the information. Analyze the information. Present the findings.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

The purpose of methodology is to describe the research procedure. This includes overall research design, the sampling procedure, field work and the data collection method and analysis procedure. Type of research Method of Research Sampling Method Sample Unit Sample Size : : : : : Exploratory Research Design Data Collection Method Random Sampling Hyper 3

METHOD OF DATA COLLECTION 1. Primary data collection : The survey report and the questionnaires are filled up by the data from primary sources. 2. Secondary data collection : Some of the data is also collected from the company websites. RESEARCH DESIGN INFORMATION : INFORMATION NEEDS FROM AN EDS Descriptive research design was used to collect the information needed regarding the following for both coca-cola and pepsi.

Total number of outlets. Name, Address, phone number, types of outlets. Availability of filled stock. Presence of sales generating assests(SGAs) own your assests (OYAs) & Ice Boxes. Purity & proper functioning of visi- cooler. Signage and display present. Service frequency. Mode of payment. Behavior of company Sales person. Complain handling.

Fieldwork was done onto maximum accuracy from my side but some discrepancy might have crept in keeping in mind the limitations of the fieldwork. The data collected according to the structured EDS format and maximum possible effort was made to reduce subjectivity.

COMPILATION OF EDS Data was collected from primary source because the objective of the project was to find out market share first hand, or relying on any form of secondary data was not the idea. Primary data thus gave current position of market share of coke.

ANALYSIS OF EDS DATA The EDS data was compiled at each distributor area level( in case of an agency) and each route level( in case of a direct route). For each of these areas, summaries were generated in prescribed format. The analysis of these summaries laid the foundation for all the further work of the project.

COMMITMENT TO QUALITY:

The coca-cola quality system is a world wide initiative involving every aspect of our business. Everyone who works for or with coca-cola is empowered and expected to maintain the highest standard Of quality in product, processes and relationships. We are never content to let our standard become static. The coca cola quality system mandates indepth self assessment through our operations, by all our business units this enables us to raise a standard even higher. In our ingredients evaluation laboratories, for example we perform precise analysis of fruit juices and other ingredients send to us by our suppliers to ensure and to improve product quality. Our processes too undergo constant scrutiny to safe guard water we use in our product and the packaging that carries them to our customers. We inform and educate our business partners about our standards so that

they meet the highest quality requirements. Under the coca cola quality systems quantity is our highest business onjective and our highest enduring obligations.

SAMPLING PLAN The study was conducted in Lucknow. For the purpose of study, a sample size of 3 hyper stores was taken Big Bazaar ( Sahara Ganj ), Big Bazaar ( Riverside Mall ) and Spencers ( Fun Republic ).

METHODS ADOPTED FOR DATA ANALYSIS The data analysis is done through the following : Tables Pie chart Flowchart

SWOT ANALYSIS
STRENGTHS Good company image. Well trained and experienced workers and executives are avalaible. Strong distribution network. Brand Thumps up alone covers the big market. Adopted two types of distribution channels (direct route & indirect route).

WEAKNESSES Less personal contacts with retailers. Service is not good. A company official does not visit outlets regularly. Less advertisement channels. Limited schemes. Repairing of S.G.As ( Sales generating assets) Not proper condition with retailers.

OPPORTUNITIES High growth rate for fruit drink market. Therefore there is a need only of marinating this share in future.

THREATS High growth of competitors product. Better facility provided by the competitors to their distribution this might lead to swittch over to slice distribution towards competitors.

CONCLUSION
My rigorous summer training on the project titled market share of coca cola in lucknow city, gave me a good scope to study the working market. That was how I was able to apply my theory in project. On the basis of brand survey concluded in Lucknow city coca cola emerged as a winner among cola war. This survey was conducted on the basis of availability of different flavors and packs of a specific brand. Coca cola exceeded its arch rival pepsico by a good percentage. The major driving force for coca cola was its cordial customers relationships. IT carries out a total product sales It carries out a total product sales pyramid which shows the dependence criteria of the various segment made in it. Each segment has its own pros and cons. The inclination towards the specific segment has to be understood clearly because it indicates a sale of particular flavor which is more appealing than the other ones. Example: thumpsup which is proving as a range among young generation also observe the change between the fate dealer, subdealers, monopoly counters and its marketing strategy. Fate dealer survey the consumers in wrong direction. Connecting link influences the choice of the wire a lot and has to be kept in mind. It is advisable to maintain a brand loyalty in the company as it is in the other countries so it should maintain the direct contact with the retailers and influences them by monetary benefits.

FINDINGS
There is a tough competition between two major soft drinks companies in the market namely the coca cola Company and pepsi. Coke provides better promotional schemes and services as compared to pepsi. In the segments of pet bottles, coke offers two bottles (2lts) at a price of Rs.89 only. Campaigning schemes of coca cola are better of coca cola. Glow signs, paintings and signage of coke are more than compare to pepsi. Coca-Cola provides the entire flavor in the market but pepsi does not provide all the flavors. Delivery van of coca cola is in better condition as compared to pepsi. Personal relations with the retailers influence the frequency of supply, thus coke is better. Coke offers 11 products in its product line. There is more demand of coke and thumps up because of better promotional schemes, services and profit margin (difference of Rs.8) Coke also produces a hot beverage: Georgia tea/coffee. Coca-cola sales people are good in interaction and dealing with customers.

SUGGESTIONS
Suggestions are the most vital section of project report. Success of undertaking of project lies in the unbranded implemental suggestions. Sometime these suggestions play an important role in planning of an organization. Some of these important suggestions are as follows:

For market share of different flavor 1.From advertising and brand loyalty concept point of view company should make more and more monopoly counters in prime locations. This will give a good impression to the customers and it will also help in making consumers brand loyal. 2.Company shpould emphasis more on availability of various flavors to meet out the demand of customers through proper supply chain. 3.Company itself should develop of good report with retailers who have large scale and should be continuously motivated by using mopnetory motivations. For effective distribution network 1.Proper supply of goods, services to retailer is very essential. 2.Strategy of coca cola of appointing sub dealer in different localiytu does not seem to be fruitful, as we found that direct expanation of small retailers in term of scheme and price of careates. 3.Concrete on outputs area were required huge quantity of goods. 4.Proper arrangements of vehicles taxi in supply product. 5.To appoint sub-dealer and monopoly counter for effective supply product. 6.Daily visit of executive is to make a good distribution network and satisfaction to retailers and dealers. 7.Daily visit of vehicles.

For availability of brands

1.The major brand of company ib thumps up, coca cola and fanta these are available in suficient quantity. 2.Incase of 500ml pet bottles , its demand is more but the delivery of it is not proper for the reason customer is re divert to the purchase of pepsi. 3.This is the duty of company executive abd personnel to convey proper information & schemes to retailers about the brand and should see the availability of product On the basis of advertisements. 1.Advertisement should be present in an emotional way with good brand ambassador so that it will help to sell more and more. 2.Each brand has distinguish punch line for instant communication to customer.

LIMITATIONS
When such a project is conducted, it has limitations, which are listed below: 1.Time factor acted a big constant. The universe is too large to be covered within given time period. 2.There is lack of co ordination among the various agencies of the companies. Some respondants were not willing to answer. 3.The survey has been conducted in few areas of lucknow due to limited time. It is very difficult to make people understand the significance of conducting survey. 4.Some dealers did not want to tell us the actual sale of soft drinks from the counter. 5.Due to shortage of monetory resources the project report does not reach to its perfection. 6.Lack of knowledge of area has also affected the research. 7.Lack of sales executive interest to answer the question is also an important limitation. 8.Lack of customers interest to answer the question is also an important limitations. 9.The entry and exit of new and old outlets can also effect the market share. 10.Data collected during the summer session, which is the boom period, so these data cant be generalised for the complete year.
