5. 5. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The present business scenario is totally customer oriented. Each company faces stiff competition from its competitors, each
provides the best services at competitive rates. As a result, customer has lot of choices to get the best with least cost. To face this competition, it is very
important to know customer’s behavior towards different products and services. This projectis aimed at understanding the “Marketing strategies of Airtel” and
its impact on the perception of Airtel Customers. Research has showed that it is far more costly to win a new customer than it is to maintain an existing one,
and there is no better way to retain a customer than to exceed his expectations. For this purpose, it is essential to know the level of customer satisfaction. The
focus of my research was the measurement of customer satisfaction level for the services provided by Bharti Airtel. I collected the feedback from the
Consumers to get their suggestions about the other products. Finally, the results of this research verifies the fact that keeping the customer satisfied is the best
strategy to not only retains the existing customers but also to expand the business to new horizons.

8. 8. INTRODUCTION Telecommunication is the transmission of messages over significant distances for the purpose of communication. In the modern age of
electricity, telecommunications has involved the use of electric means such as the telegraph and telephone, microwave communications and fiber optics.
Telecommunication services have been recognized world-over as an important tool for socio-economic development of a nation. It is one of the prime support
services needed for rapid growth and modernization of various sectors of the economy. The telecommunication industry is vast and offers a wide range of
career opportunities on both the hardware and software fronts. These prospects include functional jobs in mobile telephony internet protocol media systems,
wireless communications, GSM, GPRS and CDMA technology, VoIP, data networks and optical networks amongst others. Indian telecommunication sector
has undergone a major process of transformation through significant policy reforms. Driven by various policy initiatives, the Indian telecommunication sector
witnessed a complete transformation in the last decade. It has achieved a phenomenal growth during the last few years and is poised to take a big leap in the

future also. Telecommunications in India India's telecommunication network is the second largest in the world by number of telephone users (both fixed and
mobile phone) with 1179.49 million subscribers as on 31 February 2021. It has one of the lowest call tariffs in the world enabled by Some mega telecom
operators and hyper-competition among them. India has the world's second-largest Internet user-base with 747.41 million broadband internet subscribers in the
country. Today it is the fastest growing market in the world with 8.35 million monthly additions. Major sectors of the Indian telecommunication industry are
telephone, internet and television broadcast industry in the country.
9. 9. Telephone density in the country which is in an ongoing process of transforming into next generation network. The access network, which connects the
subscriber to the core, is highly diversified with different copper-pair, optic-fibre and wireless technologies. DTH, a relatively new broadcasting technology
has attained significant popularity in the Television segment. The introduction of private FM has given a fillip to the radio broadcasting in India.
Telecommunication in India has greatly been supported by the INSAT system of the country, one of the largest domestic satellite systems in the world. India
possesses a diversified communications system, which links all parts of the country by telephone, Internet, radio, television and satellite. Indian telecom
industry underwent a high pace of market liberalisation and growth since the 1990s and now has become the world's most competitive and one of the fastest
growing telecom markets. Telecommunication has supported the socioeconomic development of India and has played a significant role to narrow down the
rural-urban digital divide to some extent. It also has helped to increase the transparency of governance with the introduction of e-governance in India. The
government has pragmatically used modern telecommunication facilities to deliver mass awareness programmes for the rural folk of India. According to
London-based telecom trade body GSMA, the telecom sector accounted for 6.5% of India's GDP in 2015, or about ₹9 lakh crore (US$130 billion), and
supported direct employment for 2.2 million people in the country. As per GSMA, India is on its way to becoming the second-largest smartphone market
globally by 2025 with around 1 billion installed devices and is expected to have 920 million unique mobile subscribers by 2025 which will include 88 million
5G connections. The liberal and reformist policies of the Government of India have been instrumental along with strong consumer demand in the rapid growth
in the Indian telecom sector. The Government has enabled easy market access to telecom equipment and a fair and proactive regulatory framework, that has
ensured availability of telecom services to consumer at affordable prices. The country is divided into multiple zones, called circles (roughly along state
10. 10. boundaries). At present, there are 22 such Telecom Circles in India. Private-sector and two state-run businesses dominate the telephony segment. Most
companies were formed by a recent revolution and restructuring launched within a decade, directed by Ministry of Communications and IT, Department of
Telecommunications and Minister of Finance. The industry has witnessed exponential growth over the last few years primarily driven by affordable tariffs,
wider availability, roll-out of Mobile Number Portability (MNP), expanding 3G and 4G coverage, evolving consumption patterns of subscribers and a
conducive regulatory environment. The deregulation of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) norms have made the sector one of the fastest growing and the top
five employment opportunity generator in the country. Foreign Direct Investment policy which increased the foreign ownership cap from 49% to 100%.
Telecom tower in India is set to boom as its tenancy ration will increase exponentially due to the expansion of 3G and 4G and the onset of 5G technologies.
5G is set to be a game changer for the telecom industry and is expected to yield enormous economic opportunities over the next three to five years. India has
the potential to unlock $48.69bn through the deployment of 5G over the next four years. MAJOR CHANGES IN INDIAN TELECOM MARKET Post starting
of the commercial operation of Reliance Jio in September 2016, the telecom market saw a huge change in terms of falling tariff rates and reduction of data
charges, which changed the economics for some of the telecom players. This resulted in exit of many smaller players from the market. Players like Videocon
and Systema sold their spectrum under spectrum trading agreements to Airtel and RCOM respectively in 2016. In February 2017, Telenor India announced
that Bharti Airtel will take over all its business and assets in India and deal will be completed in 12 months timeframe. In May 2018, Department of Telecom
approved the merger of Telenor India with Bharti
11. 11. Airtel paving the way for final commercial closing of the merger between the two companies. Telenor India has been acquired by Airtel almost without any
cost. In October 2017, Bharti Airtel announced that it would acquire the consumer mobile businesses of Tata Teleservices Ltd in a debt-free cash-free deal.
Reliance Communications had to shut down its 2G and 3G services including all voice services and only offer 4G data services from 29 December 2017, as a
result of debt and a failed merger with Aircel. In February 2019, the company filed for bankruptcy as it was unable to sell assets to repay its debt. It has an
estimated debt of ₹ 57,383 crore against assets worth ₹18,000 crore. After bankruptcy of Rcom, Aircel also shut down its operations in many unprofitable
circles including, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh from January 2018. Aircel filed for bankruptcy in the
National Companies Law Tribunal (NCLT) in Mumbai due to huge competition and high levels of debt. Vodafone and Idea Cellular completed their merger on
31 August 2018, and the merged entity is renamed to Vi. The merger created the largest telecom company in India by subscribers and by revenue, and the
second largest mobile network in terms of number of subscribers in the world. Under the terms of the deal, the Vodafone Group holds a 45.1% stake in the
combined entity, the Aditya Birla Group holds 26% and the remaining shares will be held by the public. However, Vi lost a significant number of gross and
active subscribers in the month of August 2020 after the merger. On 24 October 2019, the Government of India has announced revival package for BSNL and
MTNL which includes monetising assets, raising funds, TD-LTE spectrum, voluntary retirement scheme for employees. Apart from package, the Ministry of
Communications has decided to merge MTNL with BSNL. After this, MTNL became a subsidiary of BSNL. With all this consolidation, the Indian mobile
market has turned into a four- player market, with Jio as the number-one player, with a market share of 35%, Airtel India in second position, with market share
of 29.8% and Vi, with revenue market share of 24%. The government operator BSNL (incl. MTNL) is in the distant 4th
12. 12. position, with an approximate market share of 10.4%. CURRENT MARKET SITUATION The Indian mobile market has turned into a four-player market,
with Jio as the number-one player, with revenue market share of 34.9%, Airtel India in second position, with revenue market share of 28% and Vi, with
revenue market share of 27%. The government operator BSNL/MTNL is in the distant 4th position, with an approximate market share of 11%. So, The
dominant players are Vi, Airtel, Jio, and BSNL. The increase in Reliance Jio's subscriber base is largely at the cost of Vodafone Idea Ltd, whose subscriber
market share has declined consistently in last two years while Airtel has been able to hold its market share. Airtel is India’s Largest Mobile Telecom Operator
in terms of Active Users. According to Visitor Location Register (VLR), a key metric reflecting the number of active subscribers on a mobile network, showed
that 97.47% of the users were active for Bharti Airtel, 90.61% for Vi and 78.16% for Jio.
13. 13. TELECOM REGULATORY AUTHORITY OF INDIA (TRAI) The entry of private service providers brought with it the inevitable need for independent
regulation. The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) was, thus, established with effect from 20th February 1997 by an Act of Parliament, called the
Telecom Regulatory Authority of India Act, 1997, to regulate telecom services, including fixation/revision of tariffs for telecom services which were earlier
vested in the Central Government. TRAI's mission is to create and nurture conditions for growth of telecommunications in the country in a manner and at a
pace which will enable India to play a leading role in emerging global information society. One of the main objectives of TRAI is to provide a fair and
transparent policy environment which promotes a level playing field and facilitates fair competition. In pursuance of above objective TRAI has issued from
time to time a large number of regulations, orders and directives to deal with issues coming before it and provided the required direction to the evolution of
Indian telecom market from a Government owned monopoly to a multi operator multi service open competitive market. The directions, orders and regulations
issued cover a wide range of subjects including tariff, interconnection and quality of service as well as governance of the Authority. The TRAI Act was
amended by an ordinance, effective from 24 January 2000, establishing a Telecommunications Dispute Settlement and Appellate Tribunal (TDSAT) to take
over the adjudicatory and disputes functions from TRAI. TDSAT was set up to adjudicate any dispute between a licensor and a licensee, between two or more
service providers, between a service provider and a group of consumers, and to hear and dispose of appeals against any direction, decision or order of TRAI.
TRAI Structure  TRAI shall have, in addition to its chairman, at least two full-time members and not more than two-part members, all appointed by the
Central Government.  The members should have special knowledge of, or professional experience in telecom, industry, finance, accountancy, law,
management and consumer affairs.  Only those senior or retired Govt. officers can be appointed as members who have served for at least three years as
secretary/additional secretary to the Union or State Govts.
14. 14. Powers and Functions of TRAI The Powers and Functions of TRAI are mainly:  To recommend the need for and timing of introduction of new service
providers and terms and conditions of the license to a service provider;  To ensure technical compatibility and inter-connect between different service
providers and regulate their revenue-sharing arrangements;  To ensure compliance with terms of license and revaluation of the same for non- compliance; 
To lay down and ensure a time period for providing long-distance and local distance circuits;  To facilitate competition and promote efficiency in operations
to promote the growth of telecom services;  To protect consumers’ interest, monitor quality of services, inspect equipment used in networks and make
recommendations about such equipment;  To maintain a register of interconnect agreements and keep it open for inspection and to settle disputes among the
service providers in this respect;  To give advice to the government on any matter related to the telecom industry. Levy fees and charges for services and,
ensure that universal service obligations are complied with; and  To perform any such other administration and financial function as may be entrusted to it by
the Central Government.
15. 15. Literature Review Marketing Strategies Marketing strategy represents a key element of success for organizations. Executing an effective marketing
strategy is just as important as conceptualizing and creating it. Through marketing strategy implementation firms employ scarce resources through marketing
capabilities in order to attain the set goals and targets. In order to illustrate the value of marketing strategy and the process of implementation a detailed
literature review was performed. A total of (Number of Studies Depending On the References Count, After Employee Deletion) studies on the topic of
marketing strategy have been examined. The meta-analysis uncovers two distinct but related features to marketing strategy content: marketing strategy
decisions and marketing strategy decision implementation. The literature also suggests there is a relationship of marketing strategy, and marketing mix
https://www.slideshare.net/SumitGoyal89/marketing-strategies-of-airtel-project-report 78/95
4/17/23, 12:59 PM Marketing Strategies of Airtel - Project Report
elements on organizational performance, and emphasizes a further need to perform conceptual and empirical studies. The originality and value of the review
lies in the fact that marketing strategy has been analyzed both in terms of its outcomes and as a process that does not yield satisfactory results without effective
implementation. Company marketing strategy is an important and crucial constituent for the global market. Marketing strategies can vary from country to
country, brand to brand and organization to organization. In order to achieve a satisfactory and adequate marketing strategy which has a positive outcome on
global and overall firm success, the marketing department within a company should bear in mind all the different marketing mix strategies that can influence
the comprehensive result and the cumulative firm success. When launching a product into foreign markets companies can use a conventional marketing mix or
adapt the existing marketing mix, to satisfy the country they are carrying out their business activities in. the link between standardization/adaptation and
company performance is complicated and possibly influenced by other factors (Shilke, Reiman, Thomas, 2009, Solberg, Durrieu, 2008). It should be
emphasized that the influence of standardization/adaptation decisions of international marketing strategy on company performance is named also as one of the
most topical research objects of international business (Griffith, Cavusgil, Xu, 2008). Therefore inconsistent results of empirical research works and limited
research contexts confirm that the link between standardization/adaption decisions of international marketing strategy and company performance are a topical
object of scientific research
16. 16. (Ryans, Griffith, White, 2003, Theodosiou, Leonidou, 2003). The Conceptof Marketing Strategy Marketing strategy is a significant driving force that
distinguishes the success of many organizations not only by well-developed marketing strategies outlining where, when, and how the firm will compete but
also by their ability to execute the marketing strategy decision options chosen (e.g. Day and Wensley 1988; Varadarajan 2010). The appropriate and effectively
implemented marketing strategies are required to productively guide the deployment of the limited available resources via the firm’s marketing capabilities in
pursuit of desired goals and objectives (Black and Boal 1994; Varadarajan and Clark 1994). The literature reveals two distinct but related features to marketing
strategy content: marketing strategy decisions and marketing strategy decision implementation. Hence, decision makers responsible for the marketing strategy
must select which available resources the firm should deploy, where to deploy them appropriately, and set and signal priorities in terms of achieving the
various goals and objectives of the firm (Slater 1995). These marketing strategies toward firm performance may be either formal, top-down strategies
(Varadarajan and Clark 1994) or emergent or improvisational strategies (Moorman and Miner 1998). A firm’s marketing strategy content therefore involves
explicit or implicit decisions regarding goal setting, target market selection, positional advantage to be pursued, and timing to attain firm performance (e.g.,
Day 1994; Varadarajan 2010). MARKETING MIX Marketing Mix is a strategy which a company uses to formulate a product/service offering for its
customers. Marketing mix strategy is created using the 4Ps of marketing - Product, Place, Price, Promotion and 7Ps in case of service- Physical Evidence,
People, Process. The term is attributed to Neil Bordon. The term is named because it suggest how a marketer mixes various elements (Product, Price, Place,
Promotion etc.) in order to make a relevant/just right offering to the customer. The main objective of marketing mix strategy is to make the right product at
correct price at the right place with right promotion. The marketing mix is considered to be one of the most important aspects of the marketing process. It
plays a significant role in creating value and satisfaction for the customer. In particular, the marketing mix or 4Ps (product, price, promotion, and place)
operates as the main forces when it comes to meeting the
17. 17. demands of customer and creating a long, profitable relationship with them. In fact, the traditional theoretical framework with regard to the
implementation of marketing- management process activities is based on the concept of the marketing mix (Festa, Cuomo, Metallo, & Festa, 2016). This
strategy has been one of the popular marketing topics in business. Following are the various elements in the marketing mix. There are two types of marketing
mix-Product Mix (4Ps) and Service Mix (7Ps). PRODUCT MIX When a company is offering products or goods, it comes under the purview of the product
marketing mix. It talks about the product strategies, pricing strategies, place where the products are distributed and promotional strategies. Elements of a
product mix can be explained in detail as below: 1) Product : It is the main part of the offering, the product itself. It is most important aspect of the mix.
Product is something which has some functional value and can be used by the customer to achieve something. A marketer needs to define his product very
carefully thinking about its value, its USP, features, competition etc. Kotler and Armstrong describe a product as “ . . . anything offered to a market for
attention, acquisition, use, or consumption that might satisfy a need or want.” On the contrary, a service can be defined as “. . .any activity or benefit that one
party can offer to another that is essentially intangible and does not result in ownership of anything” (Kotler & Armstrong, 2012). 2) Price : Pricing the second
most important element in our marketing mix. This is value we will get in exchange for our product. This is what the customer will pay in return for the utility
of the product. Pricing is mainly determined by the cost of the product and also how much the customer would be willing to pay. If we price it too high no one
buys, if we price it too low, company makes losses. So we have to devise the right pricing strategy to make the mix perfect. It is affected by the purchasing
power of the customer and considered to be the critical element in the buying decision. Price can be defined briefly as the amount the consumer must exchange
to receive an offering (Singh, 2012). Various factors affect the pricing strategy of
18. 18. an organization, including the cost of materials, product differentiation, competition level, market share, and the customer’s perceived value of the product
(Davenport & Harris, 2007). The product’s price in the SME sector in Al Buraimi is affected by many factors such as the total cost, the profit margin, the
product lifecycle, regulations, economic policies, and so on. 3) Place: Also called the Distribution. If we are making a product as the right price, that is not
enough, we need to make it available at the right place too. The customer mostly would not come to you until and unless our product and price is unbeatable.
The product needs to be where customer is likely to buy. If we are soft drink manufacturer and the product is not available in grocery stores, supermarkets,
restaurants etc. then the first two elements are of no use and the offering fails. 3) Promotion : Also referred to as Communication about the product. This is the
4th element in marketing mix which means the communication done about the product to the customer. Advertising on TV, print and digital media would come
under promotion. The promotion concept includes all marketing activities used to inform, persuade, and remind the target market about a firm and its products
or services, in such a way as to build a favorable image in the mind of the customer (Sidhanta & Chakrabarty, 2010). In the same context, Kotler and
Armstrong (2012) defined promotion as human activities based on a communication process that can be directed via personal selling points or indirectly via
advertising messages through the media. Thus, the 4Ps are valid for every company, whether it is a product or a service company.
19. 19. The above image shows the 4Ps of the marketing mix SERVICE MIX In case of a service brand like a restaurant, telecom service, hospitality etc, there are
additional points apart from the 4Ps. The additional Ps i.e. physical evidence, people and processes are collectively known as the service marketing mix. These
can be described as below: 5) Physical Evidence : A service is intangible but there has to be a reassurance to the customer that service happened. It can be a
receipt of a service or may be an invoice. Physical evidence should be positive meaning that customer should be assured that service completed as expected. 6)
People : These are the employees which help deliver the service e.g. delivery boy or a cab driver. They may become the face of the service hence are very
important that is why very important to chose right people. 7) Process : The steps undertaken for completion/delivery of the service. The process is very
crucial. The process should not only consist of the positive path but should also should consider the negative paths to address issues in the service delivery. e.g.
Complain management, reverse supply chain etc. All these help in understand the marketing mix for a service based business. REVIEW OF EXISTING
LITERATURE Business Standard (2012) states that plagued by increasing competition, the telecom industry is adding more and more inactive subscriber,
leading to saturation in the industry. Increasing price competition and aggressive customer acquisitions by the telecom operators could lead to saturation in the
telecom industry, with the pace of subscriber addition not likely to be as strong as before, points out a recent report on the sector by rating agency ICRA.
Myilswamy, Ratheesh Kumar (2013) find that the postpaid and prepaid customer prefer to use Airtel mobile service because of the features, Rent, Tower
coverage, Talk time, Advertisement and Corporate schemes. Finally the study suggests that by paying special attention on these factors develop the business

have different preference in making the purchase decision to the avail mobile service. The study also discovers that the female consumers are tough to satisfy
than the male consumers. Bansal & Bansal (2013) study revealed that most of the respondents were satisfied with their current service provider but still some
respondents want to shift their service provider. Call charges wasthe main reason of changing the service provider followed by poor network and poor
customer care service. Ratnesh & Kansal (2013) identified that customers’ loyalty and foster recommendation (positive word of mouth) are depending on
mainly four factors, i.e. customized value-added services, convenience, network coverage and call tariff. Customers’ satisfaction with call rates is significantly
related with family income of users and availability of customer store is significantly related with age of users. Bhargav, A. et al. (2014) investigated the gap
between customers’ expectations and perceptions in telecom sector. The primary data was collected with the help of a consistent questionnaire of service
quality. Zohaib Ahmad and Junaid Ahmad (2014) in their study titled “Consumer Purchase Behavior in Cellular Service Sector” says that the dominant factors
quality, price, promotions, and social factors reflects the latest buying behavior of people or not. The study reveals that the P. Vijay et. al., / International

32. 32. MARKETING STRATEGY ADOPTED BY BHARTI AIRTEL Airtel follows a set of pre-defined values what they call as their ‘Air Culture’. Here ‘Air’
stands for – Alive, Inclusive and Respectful respectively. Segmentation: Airtel has always believed in being customer centric. They have geographically
segmented the market in East, West, North, South & central. They have also gone a step ahead and segmented the market in each region on the basis of
demographic variables like age, Income, Social groups, etc. From the demographic data collected they run different campaigns as per the preferences of people
https://www.slideshare.net/SumitGoyal89/marketing-strategies-of-airtel-project-report 80/95
4/17/23, 12:59 PM Marketing Strategies of Airtel - Project Report
in each region. Thus trying to increase their base volume. Competitive advantage: Airtel has tried maintaining its cost leadership by reducing the operational
costs and with the help of its unique business model – where their daily operations are outsourced and core functions like finance, sales, marketing, and
management are retained. First-mover advantage: Bharti Airtel has been aggressively competing with Jio, the telecom arm of Reliance Industries Limited
(RIL). But Airtel did get the first-mover advantage as it was Airtel who was the first telecom player to have launched 4G services to the Indian crowd, and
now even in 5G. MARKETING OBJECTIVES Create product awareness Maximize market share Maximize profits whole defending market share
33. 33. DIFFERENT STRATEGIES Product Offer a basic product/ service. Offer value added services Increase in number of value added services. Price Charge
cost- plus Price to penetrate market Price to match or best competitors Distribution Build selective distribution Build Intensive distribution. Build more
intensive distribution. Advertising Build product awareness among early adopters and dealers. Build awareness and interest in the mass market Stress brand
differences and benefits. Sales Promotion Use heavy sales promotion to entice peopleto subscribe. Increase to build and maintain relationships with customers
Increase to encourage brand- switching.
34. 34. Segmentation, Targeting, Positioning in the Marketing strategy of Airtel Segmentation is beneficial because of better predictability of the target consumer
group, minimization of risk exposure, better ability to fine-tune a product/service to the requirement of target buyer and the resultant ease in designing a proper
designing marketing mix strategy. In evaluating different market segments the company looks at two factors: The overall attractiveness of the segments and
the company's objectives & resources. Airtel uses mix of segmentation strategies to segment its offerings like basic Call /SMS plans, prepaid / Post-paid plans,
VAS – Data, caller tunes etc. Apart from geographically segmenting the market in East, West, North, South & central, the market is also segmented in each
region on the basis of demographic variables like age, Income, Social groups. Different geographic regions are handled independently and different campaigns
are run according to the preferences of people in each region. Airtel has targeted the generation Z of 15-25 ages, generation X & baby Boomers by using
different campaigns over the period of time i.e. campaign like “Har Ek friend Jaruri hota hai”/ “Jo tera hai wo mera hai” to target Gen Z and recently launched
campaign of “one touch internet”/ “Fastest 4G network by Ookla Speedtest” targeting Gen X & baby boomers. Airtel has been successful in top-of-the-mind
recall amongst cellular phone users and is enjoying a leadership position in most markets. After changing its logo it has repositioned itself as Young, Energetic
& International brand. It has evolved itself as a torch bearer of the telecom industry in India.
35. 35. LOGOS USED BY AIRTEL TILL NOW Logo used by Airtel from 1994 to 2002 Logo used by Airtel until November 2010 CURRENT LOGO: In
November 2010, Airtel rebranded itself and The company unveiled a new logo with 'airtel' written in lower case. Designed by London-based brand agency,
The Brand Union, the new logo is the letter 'a' in lowercase, with 'airtel' written in lowercase under the logo.
36. 36. COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE IN MARKETING OF AIRTEL With the formation of Bharti Infratel for Indian Operations, Airtel has extended its
infrastructure in the extreme parts of the country for nationwide penetration, creating competitive edge over other players in terms of low operational cost,
better network connectivity, coverage, low call drops & better customer service. Airtel developed a sustainable advantage through its excellent network of
telecom towers. In many locations, newer entrants found it cheaper to rent Airtel’s existing infrastructure rather than setup new towers. Also spending
extensively on advertising & promotions helped it sustain in this highly competitive Industry and emerge as a Market leader in terms of “Active Users”. Word
of mouth is one of the strongest forms of promotions & Airtel has completely leveraged that. Airtel is always known for its innovation and value for money for
users. It is to be noted that Airtel is facing Huge Competition from Jio which has formed a digital ecosystem through its huge number of Apps and value added
Services. Still, Airtel has successfully managed to attain the Top Position in terms of Highest Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) all because of the Focus of
the Company on Quality instead of Quantity. AIRTEL'S MARKETING ORIENTATION. Since this is a high-involvement expensive product, the service
provider has to fully take care of the customers. a) They take personal responsibility to "get" the answer for any problem faced by the customer. b) They
anticipate customers' problems and take pro-active steps to prevent them. c) They give answers to the questions & requests, quickly & efficiently. d) They have
a positive tone & manner while interacting with customers. e) They end the interaction on a positive or a humorous note-making the last 30 seconds count.
Airtel realizes that “Attracting people is easy but converting them into loyal customers is hard” hence the company’s emphasis is on maintaining a 'Smiling
and a Friendly Atmosphere' to please and retain the customer.
37. 37. PRODUCT POLICY AND PLANNING The product or service is the heart of the marketing mix. Without a product or a service customers' needs cannot
besatisfied. The basic product promise by Airtel is mobility. Airtel's main marketing strategy is to be a first mover all the time. It has recognized the
significance of making the first move-- because in the field of Communication & Information Technology changes occur at a tremendous pace. Effective
product segmentation has to be carried on continuously because basic services can be and will be copied and in time become expected component of the
product. Airtel seeks to carry out this segmentation through provision of new information services and making new facilities available. The product policy and
planning depends on the stage of the product life cycle. At present the cellular phone market has reached the maturity stage. Since, the premium segment is
nearing saturation the company targeting the upper middle and middle-middle class. In order to do so Airtel is trying to optimize the price performance
package by offering suitable "product bundling". This involves the selection of the suitable hardware (handset) and its software (its services.) with reasonable
price in order to deliver maximum price performance to its customers. In addition, it offers free Airtime services and other concessions to make the prices and
thus the product more attractive. It has also opened a 24 hours customer service. Only price doesn't serve as an effective differentiator, value added services
become the effective differentiator. PRODUCT LIFE CYCLE The pattern of cellophane subscriber growth observed elsewhere in the world reveals that the
growth in the market is initially slow followed by a sharp acceleration, but so far that has not happened in India. As far as the Product Life Cycle is concerned.
Indians are at the beginning of the maturity stage. Introduction Growth Maturity
38. 38. AIRTEL’S PRICING STRATEGY AIRTEL has realized that the Indian market is price sensitive. Airtel follows a COMPETITIVE pricing strategy because
of the huge competition in telecom segment in India from competitors like Reliance Jio, Vodafone etc. The pricing strategies of all telecom companies are
monitored by Telecom Regulation Authority of India (TRAI) to ensure fair prices are being charged to all customers. Hence, despite regulation, the most
important aspect in the pricing strategy in the marketing mix of Airtel is based on competitive pricing strategy. Airtel provides flexibility to its customer to
choose and customize their plan according to their preference and pay tariff according to chosen pack. The aim of Airtel’s pricing strategy is customer
retention by providing them with combo offers to boost revenue. Airtel pricing strategies in broadband segment is also of very low cost and attracts huge
customer base to avail affordable plans. Airtel faces tough competition in terms of price war with other telecom companies like Reliance Jio and the customer
loyalty for telecom companies is generally low and entirely dependent on price of services, so Airtel offers its basic product like call, data, SMS and other
value-added services at a cheap rate.
39. 39. PROMOTIONAL STRATEGY The promotional and advertising strategy in the Airtel marketing strategy is as follows: Airtel is an established and well-
known brand in telecom sector. Airtel organizes strong promotional campaigns for its services utilizing all media channels from TV, print, events, social media
etc. Hence the promotion strategy in the marketing mix of Airtel is extremely comprehensive i.e. they do a 360 branding. Airtel has used all the big celebrities
to endorse their services like Shahrukh Khan, AR Rehman, Sachin Tendulkar, Vidya Balan etc. Airtel also sponsors various events like Cricket matches, Grand
Prix etc under their community development programme and brand promotion. Airtel has also got a good presence on social media like Facebook, Twitter etc.
Which it uses for its service promotion and solve queries of customers. Airtel also engages in public relations like Education campaigns, girls child awareness
campaigns etc. AD CAMPAIGNS BY BHARTI AIRTEL Airtel’s Advt. campaigns have always been very creative & innovative. They have done wonders for
Airtel. In 2002 music composer AR Rahman composed the Signature tune for Airtel. It was one of the best pieces of work done on Airtel. The tagline for the
ad being “Live Every Moment”. In 2003 Airtel came out with a campaign tagged “Express yourself”. It was named the ‘World’s Best Communications Brand
of the year 2004’ at the World Communication Awards 2004 in London. In 2010 came “Endless Goodbye” which was also nominated as the best ad in Cannes
Festival.
40. 40. In 2012 came its Game changer campaign “Har Ek Friend Zaroori Hota Hai”. This campaign bought Airtel back to the limelight. In 2015 we were
introduced to the 4G Airtel Girl. This campaign was to announce the launch of its 4G network and how they challenged it to be the fastest as compared to
other network providers. Their Tagline – “India’s First 4G Network”. In 2016 they showed how Airtel 4G is not only the Fastest 4G Network in India but
available in more parts of the country than one would think. 2018 – Airtel takes a fresh approach with a bold and direct theme – “Sab Kuch Try Karo, Fir Sahi
Chuno” In this they are communicating with the audience and asking them to decide which network is the best by trying all options themselves and not merely
on the basis of hearsay.
41. 41. DISTRIBUTION STRATEGY OF AIRTEL It has wide spread simple and effective channel structure. Company uses 2-Tier & 3- tier distribution
networksystem. Under 2-tier distribution network, company appoints UD (urban distributors) & RS (Rural Suppliers). UD distribute the items to retailers
according to the demand & transfer easy balance to retailer through FOS (Field officer Sales) SIM who work under UD’s. Under 3-tier distribution RS (rural
supers) distributes the items to RD (Rural Distributors) & transfer easy balance into RD’s SIM, who then distribute it to Retailers. Apart from all these
company also uses Airtel Relationship centres under franchised model & company officials for corporate sales. Each franchisee ordistributor canhave any
number ofdealersunder him as long as the person is approved by the Airtel authority.
42. 42. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY The research Design is the conceptual structure within which the research is conducted. It constitutes the blueprint for the
collection, measurement and analysis of Data. The success of the Research mostly depends on the methodology on which it is carried out. Theappropriate

51. 51. companies are providing cheaper rate tariff and all others plans. This is affecting Airtel Market. 2. Debt: With its acquisitions turning out to bad
investment, and credit being high and margins being low, Airtel group is under high debt. Airtel does not have as deep pockets as Jio. 3. Outsourced
Operations: Outsourcing operations helped Airtel in lowering its cost. But on the other hand, they are running the risk of being dependent on some other
companies which may affect its operations. OPPORTUNITIES  Untapped voice market: Despite of many customers in India, hundreds of millions people
are without phone. According to TRAI around 12% of total connection in India is inactive. Airtel have to make strategy for this type of customers.  Market
Development: With fierce competition in the telecom industry & shrinking margins, venturing out in new markets/developing economies will prove fruitful for
the company.  VAS: VAS (Value Added services) is going to future of the telecommunication industry & by specializing itself in this vertical Airtel can
differentiate itself in highly competitive market. With introduction of unique services, Airtel can avail higher margins. THREATS  Mobile Number
Portability : MNP gives independence to customer to change the service provider while retaining the same number within the country. With similar tariffs
across various telecom and satisfaction with the current service provider consumers are willing to change. The larger operators like Airtel, Vodafone are losing
many customers to the newer companies who attract these customers with their offer.  Intense Competition: In the Telecom market is biggest threat for
Bharti Airtel, as other companies are providing very cheap tariff as compare to Airtel, so people are switching to other companies.

Infrastructure - Good Network & Reliable WEAKNESSES - High competition - High Debt - Outsourced Operations OPPORTUNITIES - Untapped Voice
market - Introduction of 5G - Value Added Services THREATS - Mobile Number Portability - Intense Competition from Jio - Luring offers from Other
Operators
53. 53. CONCLUSION Airtel is a telecom service providing company where customer satisfaction is together goal and marketing tool. Today’s customers in the
telecom industry, where lots of offers are available, are harder to satisfy. They remain smoother, more challenging, more price conscious, less forgiving and
they are innovative by many more companies with equivalent or better offers. The experiment is not only to produce satisfied customers also to produce loyal
and delighted customer. From this research, It can be concluded that more than 70% of the Users who are currently using Airtel were satisfied with the
services of Airtel. Also, a Good no. of users who were willing to switch from their respective subscribers showed interest in Airtel. Hence, these statistics
imply a bright future for the company. Airtel has done a good job by improving its core competencies. Airtel is working hard on its Research and development.
This is one of the main reasons why it is still on the top position in terms of the Number of Active Users and Average Revenue Per User. Airtel was the first
Player to enter into 4G market, so Airtel has to take advantage. Airtel has to Focus on the rural areas and expand the business in rural areas. Any business
should have a vision, mission, objective and organizational structure to succeed. For covering all these Criteria, Company needs to build up a strategic plan
through which it can reach its main goal point. The company should maintain all major process also others factors. There are several competitors in the market
which are already working rigorously with the similar Game Plan but whichever company properly implements the plans, will be able to succeed in the long
run. This is a competitive and customer driven market. It is high time for Airtel to satisfy and retain its existing customers. With the changing technological,
economic and political scenario, the telecom sector will face many ups and downs. To attain the Top position in the Market, Bharti Airtel needs to build an
Aggressive strategy to be able to counter its Biggest Competitors Jio & Vi.
