NEED FOR THE STUDY
In the recent years, the car scenario on the Indian roads has undergone a
radical change. Today Indian roads are flooded with colorful cars of various
sizes, stunning features, aerodynamic bodies, eye catching front and rear
lights with enormous power embedded engine and their bonnets. These
have been particularly designed to cater for the needs of different classes of
Indian society.
The competition in the market has grown to such an extent that they are
threatening the very existence of war horse like the Indicia vista and
reliable beauties like Indigo Manza, Sumo and Nano Tata Motors new
model IndicaV2.
In order to compete we need to study the Customer Satisfaction, which
will surely cause an impact on consumer purchase behaviors, companies
are always searching for easy to gain the efficiency substituting one
promotional tool for another.
SCOPE OF THE STUDY

Customer satisfaction is the buzzword of the 1990s. Unfortunately, many managers still think
of satisfying their customers as a nice thing to do rather than a critical component of success.
To maximize profits and productivity, you must recognize five facts:

1. As senior managers, you only know about the tip of the iceberg, a small fraction of all the
problems your customers encounter.

2. Service can be a major marketing tool--converting problem situations into incremental
revenue.

3. Customer problems can cost you not only an immediate lost sale, but also future purchases
by that customer and by other customers as a result of negative word-of-mouth behavior.

4. You can and must quantify the expected payback from service and/or quality improvements.

5. The market transaction (sale) often is not the key point of customer pain and lost revenue.
Often, both the product offering (product itself, how it is offered, and fulfillment) and
customer expectations are major contributors to problems, even though the problem surfaces
in the customer service area.
