ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
In this project report I have made an honest and dedicated attempt to make the research
material as authentic as it could. And I earnestly hope that it provides useful and
workable information and knowledge to any person reading it.
During this small time frame of two months in which the project reached its
completion, there were a few people whom I would like to make a mention of and
without whose help the project would have never seen the light of day.
I would like to thanks my external guide Mr. Sandeep Singh (Circle Head) who gave
me a free hand as far as going about the project work concerned.
I dedicate this project to Dealers of Pune District who were extremely kind and who
at times went out of the way to help me. Without their co-operation it would have
perhaps not been possible to research a few places, which I did, within the stipulated
time frame.
EXECUTIVE SUMMERY
First and for most, I would like to thanks VIDEOCON DTH for giving me an
opportunity to undertake the project MARKET ANALYSIS FOR VIDEOCON d2h.
I was given the task for market analysis in which I had to visit dealers, distributors and
tell them about new introducing product by VIDEOCON DTH. The offered products
are IDTV, IDVD, and IHT & DTH ITSELF.
As a management trainee my work was also to note down the problems, if that dealer is
selling Videocon company product. My main work was to promote /pitch the features
& facilities provide in to the products and convince them for sale the VIDEOCON
DTH product.
The uphill task was to find out the potential dealers who have interest for selling the
VIDEOCON DTH products as well as support for increase the selling. So that
company assumes them for selling the DTH or as a future prospect for selling the DTH.
The company Videocon DTH is doing aggressive marketing research /analysis at the
launch timing so that they can get good response and business because more market
analysis give more accurate and quantitative result by which company take effective
decision for making the profitable business with satisfied customer.
The most interesting part in any summer internship, for a learner is, the application of
concepts, he has learned. Apart from being interesting things, it is also the key
phenomena around which summer internship resolves. It also gives, a taste of pressure
,the marketing manager has due to limitation of resources, especially financial in
nature .The only things which market research does not give an in-depth knowledge
about is Sales. Although selling skill is considered to be one of the prerequisite of a
marketing professional. Market Research does not give the taste of a hand core sales
job. Thus it can be very well said that, Market Research could be very good topic for
Summer Internship of a student.
In order to get the best of both, I decided to do project (Pan Pune) on Market Research
in Videocon DTH company.

a low ARPU (average revenue per user), high volume game
It established for expand the DTH market and distribution network which will provide

DTH:
DTH stand for DIRECT-TO-HOME television. DTH is defined as the reception of
satellite programmes with a personal dish in an individual home. DTH does away with
19
the need for the local cable operators can receive satellite programmes and they then
distribute them
cable operators to feed channels and later on private companies were allowed to air their
own channels and this led to the explosive growth in number of tv channels and number
of cable operators. The growth of Tv channels & cable operators created a big industry
and market opportunities.
Until few years back there were as many as 1.0 Lakh cable operators across India.
however the services provided by cable operators were poor. The strikes, increase in
tariff plan, selective broadcast and poor services were major cause of dissatisfaction
among the the customers. This has created an opportunity for DTH, which serves an
immediate threat to the high-end cable networks.
There is an immense opportunity for DTH in India an market. The opportunity in India
almost 11 times that in developed countries like the US an Europe. For every channel
there is a scope for broadcasting it in at least ten different languages. So every channel
multiplied by ten that is the kind of scope for DTH in the country.

The End to all the unnecessary interruptions. Their interactive Direct to Home Services

Box (STB).
Videocon is about to give some serious competition to the existing DTH providers in
terms of price as they are planning to give away their Set Top Boxes in less than a
thousand bucks making it the cheapest rate so far for any brand. The reason behind this
could be that Videocon is perhaps getting their STBs manufactured in the country itself
rather than importing them. Also Videocon will be competing with Dish TV, Tata sky,
Sun Direct, DD Direct, Big TV, Airtel Digital TV.
Videocon d2h will provide unique active services, multi lingual user interface, more

CONCLUSION:-
The price war has intensified in the direct-to-home (DTH) broadcasting space as the
number of players has increased. The first DTH player in the country, Dish TV (of the
Zee group), has slashed rates to an all-time low. It will now offer a `Happy Family Pack'
at Rs 1,990. At this entry point, you get a set-top box and 12 months of viewing for 125
channels spread over several genres, including 21 audio channels,
After a year, one can renew this pack and pay a monthly rental of Rs 100, around the
same that a cable TV subscriber pays, meanwhile, the Maxi package announced by Dish
TV a few months ago continues. For this, you pay an entry price of Rs 3,990 in a year to
get around 200 channels. There's no extra cost for the set-top box. After a year, the
monthly rental is Rs 300.
Other players are not behind in the race either. DTH services of Tata Sky (a JV between
the Tata group and Star TV) and Mr. Anil Ambani-promoted Big TV are being
advertised through mass SMSes, just the way real estate schemes and mutual funds are.
A recent SMS announced, "Tata Sky with 400 days of subscription at Rs 3,999. And Big
TV with six months at Rs 2,490. Installation within 48 hours."
The trend suggests that DTH is where competition is, according to a source in the
industry. There are four private players and one state-owned platform already, and at
two more are waiting to join in. Currently, Dish TV has a market share of 54%, with 3.8
million DTH subscribers, while Tata Sky has 2.2 million. Big TV, which launched its
DTH service recently, has not issued any subscriber numbers yet.
Sun TV also offers DTH but only in the south. Sun too has pan-India ambitions. The
other two planning to join the DTH race are Bharti and Videocon. According to a senior
official of Videocon, its launching DTH in October/November. Bharti, meanwhile, has
to get FIPB (Foreign Investment Promotion Board) approval before starting its DTH
service. It is believed that Bharti would start DTH around end of this year. Besides
52
These, there's Prasar Barites free-to-air DTH platform as well. In all, there are around 6
million DTH users in the country.
DTH is a satellite broadcasting system through a pizza-sized dish and a set-top box,
which eliminates the neighborhood cable wallah. Of the 120-million TV households in
India, only 70 million have cable connection. DTH is still in its infancy in India, and
there's sufficient room for growth. By the year 2015, 40% of the pay TV universe (cable
TV and DTH) are likely to be DTH users,
This was one experience where I met people from various walks of life, the
diverse ways of thinking (about the same thing), the volatile nature, their
perception of marketers, their ways of life all came forth and at the end of
the day you feel you can understand humans better but the next day you are
back to square one starting all over again.
Theres one aspect that comes into play when you go out in the streets that is
going on cold calls, going and meeting people without appointments,
without any know hows. There are only two people who do it, one is the
man looking for jobs and the others marketers, and I feel we are more
despised. It requires lots of guts but has a bearing on you mettle, it develops
your soft skills and I do feel the change.
Another important thing that I developed here was building a bond and
relationship with people.
During training I learnt about the corporate meetings, seminars, training and
what material a marketing personnel should keep with him.
53
I have learned from this project what is DTH & how DTH work & how
Videocon D2T is better from other .How much facility in Videocon D2H.

Many dealers were facing the problem of after sale service because there is no
follow up calls from Videocon.
