EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Big bazaar is a major shopping complex for todays customers. It is a place where
customers find variety of products at a reasonable price. Big bazaar has a good
reputation of itself in the market. It has positioned itself in the market as a discountedstore. It holds a huge customer base. The majority of customers belong to middle class
family. The youth generation also likes shopping and moving around big bazaar.
Volume sales always take place in big bazaar. Impulse buying behavior of customers
comes in to play most of the times in big bazaar.
Big bazaar is a hypermarket as it provides various kinds of goods like apparels,
grocery, stationary, food items, electronic items, leather items, watches, jewellery,
crockery, decorative items, sport items, chocolates and many more. It competes with
all the specialty stores of different products which provide goods at a discounted rate
all through the year. It holds a large customer base and it seemed from the study that
the customers are quite satisfied with big bazaar. As of now there are 34 big bazaars
in different cities of India, it seems that there is a vast growth of big bazaar lying as
customers demand is increasing for big bazaars.
Big bazaar is a hypermarket store where varieties of products are being sold on
different product category. It has emerged as a hub of shopping specially for middle
class people.
Different types of products starting from a baby food to pizzas all are available under
one roof. In Noida it is the middle class people who mostly do marketing from big
bazaar. Even most of the people do their monthly shopping from big bazaar. People
not only visit big bazaar to do shopping .. Grocery, apparels and food items are the
products which are demanded most by the customers of Noida in big bazaar. The
major drawback of big bazaar is that it lacks in providing enough parking space for its
customers. This may discourage the customers to come to big bazaar and shop as they
face difficulty in parking their vehicles. Even though some customers say that they
dont feel problem in parking their vehicle, it is because of the parking space available
to them by the mall.

As customers tastes and preferences are changing, the market scenario is also

LITERATURE REVIEW
Unique customer perception (UCP) (YEAR 2005)
BY SOUMEN CHATTERJEE (Lecturer Management Studies NSHM Academy
Durgapur West Bengal)
Objective- To find Unique Customer Perception is key to success instead of Unique
Selling Point.
Research Methodology- For the purpose of the study methodology has been divided
in following steps
Selection of the brand: Antihypertensive brand was selected as this segment is
fastest growing segment all over the world including India. Brand-N was
selected for this study.
Identifying the USP: After selecting brand, the USP was identified i.e. as
promoted by the company from various sources like print ads, sample catch
cover and detailing folder.
UCP concept: Instead of the USP, the focus should be on the UCP of the
product.
Identifying the UCP: As the important part of the research was to find out the
customer perception of the brand, it was accomplished by using questionnaire
approach of research methodology.
Formulating the UCP: A ranking technique was used to find the most
important customer perceptions for the brand. On the basis of these
perceptions the UCP was formulated.
Test the effectiveness of the UCP: A fresh survey was conducted to validate
the formulated UCP. Inferences and conclusions were drawn based on this
survey.
Conclusion- Unique Customer Perception is the key to success. It is ultimately that
customer look for satisfaction based on the picture of perception derived from various
sources. If these perceptions of customer can be analyzed then promotion would be
easier for customer centric marketing. This has lead to the concept - Customer
Perception is the Rule and not Customer Satisfaction.

Graph 1 Annual income group of the respondent
Interpretation:
The above diagram shows the distribution of income level of customers coming in to
big bazaar. Among the 250 respondents 24% of customers are of higher income level
above Rs. 40000 and above . Least number of customers visiting Big bazaar are the
lower income level people between Rs. 50000 and Rs. 100000 that constitute only
3.2%. The middle income level of people coming to big bazaar constitutes of 14% ,
19% and 23% .
Big bazaar is the hub of shopping for middle level income group people because of its
reasonable price on its each product category. The higher level income group people
dont prefer to do shopping in big bazaar as it doesnt deal with branded products. The
higher level income group people are very status conscious and their psychology is
such type that they dont prefer much to visit big bazaar as it is a discounted store.
The lower income group people come in to big bazaar as they get goods at a
discounted price.

T-Test
Hypothesis
H0-Two means do not differ significantly
H1- Two means differ significantly
Interpretation
According to the independent sample t-test the two means differ significantly in terms
of quality of security and convenience in terms of availability of trolley because both
of the above mentioned quality parameters have a P-value less than .05, it means that
males and females perceive these qualities differently while all the other parameters
have a P-value greater than .05, thus male and female perceive these qualities in the
similar way.

Due to time constraint and other imperative work load during the period it
could not be made possible to explore more area of concern pertaining tostudy..
Due to fast pace of life, some customers were not able to do justification to the

CHAPTER V
CONCLUSION & RECOMMENDATIONS
Conclusion
From the study we are able to conclude that the customers mainly visiting Big Bazaar
lie in the age group of 28 to 34 years. Big Bazaar customers fall in the income group
of Rs. 400000 and above. Customers are not much satisfied with the electronics
section of Big Bazaar while other sections like home dcor and clothing have been
rated as satisfied. The customer perception of quality of services offered at Big
Bazaar, Noida doesnt get affected with gender. Both males and females perceive
different parameters under study in a similar way. People have rated high on extra
benefits offered to them by Big Bazaar in terms of quantity discounts and special
schemes. Customers with different income groups do not give much importance to
prices of the products rather they are more concerned with the quality of the services
offered in terms of convenience, customer support, billing services, security, etc. Thus
the customers gave a neutral rating to satisfaction level with Big Bazaar Noida.
Recommendations
Big bazaar should improve its electronics and toys section by keeping more
variety of branded and good quality products.
Since the rating by the customers to their experience in terms of Big Bazaar
helpline service is neutral, thus the store can improvise on their dealings with
customers and attending their post purchase grievances regarding the product. Big Bazaar, Noida as a retail store can also improvise on the ambience of the
store. This would make the purchasing or shopping more comfortable for the
existing customers and it can attract the other potential customers. Now days,
customers not only see the price of the product but also other facilities
provided by the store which includes a good ambience.
