Maruti Suzuki uses Corporate branding.It is the practice of using a company's name as a
product brand name. It is an attempt to use corporate brand equity to create product brand
recognition. It is a type of family branding or umbrella brand.

Corporate branding can result in significant economies of scope since one advertising campaign can


be used for several products. It also facilitates new product acceptance because potential buyers are
already familiar with the name. However, this strategy may hinder the creation of distinct brand
images or identities for different products: an overarching corporate brand reduces the ability
to position a brand with an individual identity, and may conceal different products' unique
characteristics.

Maruti Suzuki uses the “House Blend”  brand architecture. This is an architecture based on
the development of sub-brands(alto,ritz,gypsy etc) with the added credibility of the the
existing parent brand(Maruti Suzuki)

BRAND PORTFOLIO:- The brand portfolio includes all the brands and sub-brands
attached to product-market offerings, including co-brands with other brands. A basic brand
architecture parameter is the composition of the brand portfolio. Each brand requires brand
building resources. Treating brands as Silos owned by individuals or organizational units can
lead to misallocation of resources. It is the logical, strategic and relational structure for all
of the brands in the organization’s brand portfolio
