Shriram Motor Finance INTRODUCTION

PERCEPTION OF CUSTOMERS TOWARDS SHRIRAM TRANSPORT COMPANY LIMITED.

Like any other Financial products, sales of giving finance is largely dependent on how well company

plans out their marketing strategies which helps to increase visibility and build a distinct brand image.

Looking at the intense competition it is become very necessary for company to make a name for

themselves in consumers mind. So the opinion of customers play an important role in making

marketing strategies. Hence this study will provide the company to what customers perceive about

STFC. It will also help to find out the brand image of STFC in the minds of customers.

India is emerging as a global automobile giant. In recent years this industry has made

pioneering efforts in adopting modern technology and allowing the entry of foreign players. This is

well supported by the economic conditions particularly in the financial sector and in foreign direct

investment. During the last decade, conscious efforts have been made to fine-tune state policy to

enable the Indian automobile industry realizes its potential to the fullest. The freeing of the industry

from this restrictive environment has helped it to itself to global development.

Increasing competition as result of liberalization has led to continuous modernization as well

as international standards. Moreover, auto finance with aggressive marketing strategies has played a

bid role in boosting the automobile demand. Commercial vehicles, widely considered being the

economy’s barometer, have had a good start for the year.

The auto finance industry is expected to grow at 18.6% till ’09. Of that used vehicle finance is

expected to grow at 27% p.a, while new car and UV would grow at 18.9% and 13.8%.



LITERATURE REVIEW

The world is full of stimuli. A stimulus is any unit of input affecting one or more of the five senses

sight, smell, taste, touch, hearing.The process by which we select , organiseand interpret these stimuli

into a meaningful and coherent picture is called perception.

In essence, perception is how we see the world around us and how we recognize that we need

some help in making a purchase decision. People cannot perceive every stimulus in their environment.

Therefore, they use selective exposure to notice and which to ignore.

Marketers must recognize the importance of cues or signals, in customers perception of

products. Marketing managers first identify the important attributes, such as price or quality, that the

targeted customers want in a product and then design signals to communicate these attributes.

Customers also associate quality and reliability with certain brand names. Companies watch their

brand identity closely, in large part because a strong link has been established between perceived

brand value and customers loyalty.

Customer Perception Audits:

Every time you lose a customer, there’s a reason why. Do you really know what your customers think

about your business, your offerings, or your service? Are they having good or bad experiences? Are

you equipped with the insight you need to improve customer satisfaction and loyalty, and make the

changes that matter? Entrepreneurs are often too busy to really take the time to tap into what

customers are really thinking. But customers hold the key. They know what you need to do to


Shriram Motor Financedramatically increase the value you deliver to them. Why keep this data a secret? Uncovering and

understanding it will give you what you need to be the best, generate higher sales and referrals and

earn repeat business.

Customer Perception Audits by Coach Kevin captures information on the experiences your

customers are having, analyzes the data, and provides meaningful, actionable recommendations on

short-term and long-term improvements, with the goal of closing the gap between the service that is

delivered and the service that customers expect.

Opening of economy and liberalization in trade in the country brought a sea of change in

customer’s perception of buyer and seller relationship. The customer today is not only very demanding

but also likes to know the

relationship between the supplier of goods and services and its relationship with the manufacturer or

principal and its antecedents. It is on this relationship depends the guarantee and warranty terms to

which the customer is entitled. A customer expects trouble free service during the guarantee period.

Thereafter it is expected that a product will last to its full productive life with minimum

down time and the vendor will provide the required support service to ensure the customer is not put to

trouble.

For adopting Japanese management or for customer oriented management we should first have

the willingness and a determination much above the petty personal gains. It needs an attitudinal


Shriram Motor Financechange. Looking towards present socioeconomic and political conditions such change is not foreseen

in immediate future. Market forces will have to play the game with only customer in mind if India has

to make global presence. There is little time in hand as we are having challenges from all sides. Small

nations like Korea, Taiwan, Singapore etc. have already surpassed us. These nations are working on a

vision and resultant plans. It is the right time for market players to pamper the customer. As the saying

goes, the four deadly sins of corporate management-complacency, blindness, megalomania, and greed.

fit everything else is overhead!.

Remember that a customer always buys a product or service with a lot of expectations which he

has derived from the promotional inputs of the

company or other sources including word-of- mouth . So a customer would be satisfied when

Performance is equal to Expectation while would not be satisfied when Performance does not match

with Expectations. Now this expectation is what has been derived from perception. Perception is not

good or bad, right or wrong, it is just the way someone judges an experience based on their value

system of what they believe should happen. Since people are unique, each of their perceptions are

unique .On the other hand each situation

is a "point of contact" with an employee that will tell the customer a "truth" about the company's idea

of customer service. Each situation will create expections of what the next experience will probably be

like.

The present day market is flooded with a variety of Non- banking and as well as banking

financial institutions as many as if not more than companies like SHRIRAM TRANSPORT

FINANCE COMPANY, Tata Finance, Sundaram finance etc. are marketing their products.

financial institutions which gives loans at lower rate of interest, quick loans, documentation,

percentage of finance etc. which have been exerting influence on the playing decision of the

consumer.

Financial Corporation) in the country exclusively engaged in financing for heavy commercial vehicles

(HCV) perhaps it is the only company rendering better performance from a long period of time with

the presence of all these factors. The SHRIRAM TRANSPORT FINANCE COMPANY is making

sales as hotcake.
