EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Indian automotive industry consists of five segments: commercial vehicles; multi-utility vehicles &
passenger cars; two-wheelers; three-wheelers; and tractors. With 7,822,963 units sold in the domestic
market and 753,591 units exported during the first nine months of FY2012. The two-wheeler sales have
witnessed a spectacular growth trend since the mid nineties. India is the second largest producer and
manufacturer of two-wheelers in the world. Indian two-wheeler industry has got spectacular growth in the
last few years. Indian two-wheeler industry had a small beginning in the early 50s. The Automobile
Products of India (API) started manufacturing scooters in the country. Bikes are a major segment of
Indian two wheeler industry, the other two being scooters and mopeds. Indian companies are among the
largest two-wheeler manufacturers in the world. Hero Honda and Bajaj Auto are two of the Indian
companies that top the list of world companies manufacturing two-wheelers. The two-wheeler market was
opened to foreign companies in the mid 1980s. The openness of Indian market to foreign companies leads
to the arrival of new models of two-wheelers into India. Easy availability of loans from the banks,
relatively low rate of interest and the discount of prices offered by the dealers and manufacturers lead to
the increasing demand for two-wheeler vehicles in India. This lead to the strong growth of Indian
automobile industry
This research work is also based on comparative study of two-wheeler industry. The title of this study is
Marketing Strategies of Hero MotoCorp. The main objective of this research is to perform the
comparative analysis of Hero MotoCorp with other industry players. Researcher has used the both
primary and secondary data to accomplish all the research objectives. Researcher has done the
questionnaire survey to gather the primary data. The interviews were conducted with the customers of
two-wheelers. This study is descriptive in nature as it includes the questionnaire survey, which is an
attribute of descriptive study.
