About the company

Reliance Communications Limited founded by the late Shri. Dhirubhai H Ambani (1932-
2002) is the flagship company of the Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group. It is India's
foremost truly integrated telecommunications service provider. With a customer base of
over 36 million including close to one million individual overseas retail customers,
Reliance Communications ranks among the top ten Asian Telecom companies. Its
corporate clientele includes 600 Indian, 250 multinational corporations and over 200
global carriers and owns and operates the world's largest next generation, IP enabled
connectivity infrastructure, comprising over 150,000 kilometers of fiber optic cable
systems in India, USA, Europe, Middle East and the Asia Pacific region.

Reliance Communications (formerly Reliance Communications Ventures) is one of

India's largest providers of integrated communications services. The company has more
than 20 million customers and serves individual consumers, enterprises, and carriers,
providing wireless, wireline, long distance, voice, data, and internet communications
services through a number of operating subsidiaries. The company sells communications
and digital entertainment products and services through its chain of Reliance Web World
retail outlets. The company's Reliance Infocomm subsidiary provides wireless
communications services throughout India. Reliance Communications is part of the
Reliance - Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group.

The current network expansion undertaken by Reliance is the largest wireless network
expansion undertaken by any operator across the world.

It was with this belief in mind that Reliance Communications (formerly Reliance
Infocomm) started laying 60,000 route kilometres of a pan-India fibre optic backbone.
This backbone was commissioned on 28 December 2002, the auspicious occasion of
Dhirubhai’s 70th birthday, though sadly after his unexpected demise on 6 July 2002.

Reliance Communications has a reliable, high-capacity, integrated (both wireless and

wire line) and convergent (voice, data and video) digital network. It is capable of
delivering a range of services spanning the entire infocomm (information and
communication) value chain, including infrastructure and services — for enterprises as
well as individuals, applications, and consulting.

Today, Reliance Communications is revolutionizing the way India communicates and

networks, truly bringing about a new way of life.
 We will leverage our strengths to execute complex global-scale projects to facilitate
leading-edge information and communication services affordable to all individual
consumers and businesses in India.

We will offer unparalleled value to create customer delight and enhance business
productivity.

We will also generate value for our capabilities beyond Indian borders and enable
millions of India's knowledge workers to deliver their services globally.

5. Mid-course Correction:

Providing extra benefit to the customer in mid course in order to retain them

Resegmentation: this strategy is implemented when the intial plans of the product alters due to
the market situation such as demand and the cost due to which the intial strategy fails to work
which can be reconstructed by the strategy of resegmentation which occurs in mid course

Change in the geographical area: the geographical areas are segmented based on the target
customers and these areas are switched inbetween due to the poor response of the customers or
saturation of the market in the specific area this requires change in the strategy in the mid course
in order to target the consumers belonging to the different segment.

6. LIMITATIONS
The limitations are as follows-

• The study is made within the geographical boundaries of Hyderabad and

Secunderabad only.
• Market fluctuations are not taken into consideration.
• There are various competitors available in the market.
• Some customers are brand loyal; they don’t want to change their existing internet
connection.

If we were given more training we could have got more connections
and we were not completely given the technical terms, all what we were provided is simple
language and the time to complete the work is not sufficient to do so.
