PREFACE
This summer training report was started with making to meet with the
clients and seek information through questionnaire and in formal
interview; finally converting that leads into potential business. In the
process I used to face a lot of queries and arguments regarding the
performance of SCOOTERS INDIA LTD. To overcome this problem
my project leader helped me to a big stand by not imparting deep
product knowledge and answers to the client’s queries but also by giving
his continuous encouragement, invaluable help and guidance.
These conclusions drawn are based on the observations and facts
collected from the respondents and from the various sources of
secondary data. As a whole, my efforts were to give a consolidated
picture for the study. I expect my work would at least act as a source
further scope to the company, with this I whole heartily hand over my
project hours to you.

FUTURE AND QUALITY
Page | 33
FUTURE AND QUALITY
Past is dead and gone, we are standing on the threshold of today,
planning for the future. In the process we added one wheel, shifting the
gear from two wheeler to three wheeler and propose to add another,
entering in to the arena of four wheeler, though for a limited segment -
the segment of zero emission. The quality has moved from product to
process to people. Only good quality people can work out quality
processes and provide quality products and services.
Environment is our greatest heritage and its protection, our highest
responsibility. Green process design as also green product design has
assumed importance. Eco-design of the products and process is the task
for tomorrow. Accordingly, product development is the obsession for
future. Engineering it through various processes not only to meet but
exceed customer's expectation is the challenge.
As the 21st century is knocking at the door, the demand from people will
increase manifolds. Keeping this in view, the company has made HRD a
Page | 34
key functional area. The real asset has shifted from plant and machinery
to brands and brains. Knowledge has become the biggest value added.
Accordingly, sufficient resources have been committed to convert the
company into a learning organization, thirsty for knowledge.
Growing into a global company is not only a goal but has become
necessity as the world has turned into a global village without
boundaries and there is no place in the global village for protection.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
INTRODUCTION
This chapter aims to understand the research methodology establishing a
framework of evaluation and revaluation of primary and secondary
research. The techniques and concepts used during primary research in
order to arrive at findings; which are also dealt with and lead to a logical
deduction towards the analysis and result.
THE RESEARCH REPORT
The report is the result of a survey which was undertaken in Lucknow
city. The objectives of the project have been fulfilled by getting response
from the customer associated to these segments through a personal
interview in the form of a questionnaire. The responses available

THE RESEARCH PROBLEM
The problem formulation is the first step to a successful research
process. The project undertakes the problem of analyzing the customer
perception about vikram load carrier and to find his demand of the
product in the potential market.
The primary motive is to know and explore the unnoticed opportunities
that exist in the market.
RESEARCH DESIGN
Exploratory Research is one in we don’t know about the problem, we
have to find about the problem and then work on solving the problem.
Whereas in case of descriptive research, we know the problem, we just
have to find the solution to the problem. Generally descriptive research
design is applied after exploratory research design. Here after doing the
secondary research, we found the general perception about the retail
baking but then in second phase we tried to figure out where the
difference lies and on what basis the banks differ from each other.

Analysis of Data through statistical Tools :
1. Simple Percentage Method
2. Arithmetic Means
3. Correlation Analysis
4. Chi-Square Test
5. Pie diagram
6. Bar diagram
SIMPLE PERCENTAGE METHIOD:-
Percentage refers to a special kind of ratio. It is used in making
comparison between two or more series of data. It is used to describe
relationships. It can also be used to compare the relative terms, the
distribution of two or more series of data.
% of respondents = No. of respondents / Total respondents * 100
Page | 84
AIRTHMETIC MEANS:-
Arithmetic mean, average, or mean is the sum of all items divided by the
numbers of items. The weighted value mean is most frequently used I
marketing research.
CHI-SQUARE TEST:-
It is a non – parametric test. It is used most frequently by marketing
researcher to test hypothesis. This is employed for testing hypothesis
when distribution of population is not known and when nominal data is
to be analyzed.
CORRELATION ANALYSIS:-
Correlation analysis is the statistical technique that is used to describe
not only the degree to which the variable is related to another, but also
the direction the influence. The coefficient of correlation measures the
mutual relationship between two variables. A simple correlation between
two variables only and it is usually represented.
Page | 85
The simple correlation indicated whether the change in one
variable influences the change in other variable. Not that the change may
likely to occur in both directions namely:-
1. The increase in one variable is accompanied by the
proportionate increase in the other variable.
2. The increase in one variable causes the proportionate
decrease in the other variable. In the first cast the variable are
said to be positively correlated, while in the second case, the
variable are said to be negatively correlated.
BAR DIAGRAMS:-
Bar diagram consist of bars running either horizontally or vertically with
an individual bar for each observation. The individual bars have separate
observations and magnitudes. They serve the purpose of showing the
rate of change in continuous data. More than two series of data may be
depicted by the use of bar diagrams. The positive and negative quantities
also are demonstrated with bar diagram.
Page | 86
PIE DIAGRAMS:-
The pie diagram presented in a circle dividing the chart in different
components according to the need of the distinctive data. The slices of
the circles are also noted with the name and their percentage share in the
total circle of 360 degree.

FINDINGS
Page | 101
FINDINGS:
The findings are based on the response from the respondent through
questionnaire.
These are as follows –
 The major reason for vikram load carrier user to prefer it was the
price of the vehicle being much lower than others, specially, than
that to Atul Auto and Mahindra.
 Most of the respondents of vikram load carrier are not satisfied
with the services offered by the company; however they prefer
local spare parts as they are cheap and easily available in the
market.
 Maximum of the respondents find vikram load carrier as a good
machine which is more economical with a good mileage, low
maintenance and spare parts are easily available in interior of the
city as well.
 About 40 % of the respondents were old user of the vehicle
surveyed and rest was the new users.
Page | 102
 Majority of the respondent find Mahindra and Mahindra and Atul
Auto as vikram’s main competitors, although Mahindra and
Mahindra vehicles has a bigger load capacity.
 Through earning of Atul Auto user are higher than that of vikram ,
yet it doesn’t affect their perception about these two as the price
and maintenance cost of the Atul Auto is in the same proportion as
that of earning .
 The major finding of the analysis is that the user would prefer
diesel engine vehicle over CNG and can even switch over the
business, this is due to cost, mileage and availability of CNG
which is not readily available.
Page | 103
CONCLUSIONS
Page | 104
CONCUSIONS:-
 Season plays the vital role in per day income of the load carrier
user.
 An increased no. of service center of vikram and better service at
cheaper rates would make it much more user friendly and easier to
retain its market leader position and improve it.
 Another problem was finance scheme which have a direct effect on
their earning.
 The brand image of vikram loaders is strong among the people in
the city but they fear any changes in the government regulatory
policy which will directly affect them.

to be increased.

  • 101. Page | 101 FINDINGS: The findings are based on the response from the respondent through questionnaire. These are as follows –  The major reason for vikram load carrier user to prefer it was the price of the vehicle being much lower than others, specially, than that to Atul Auto and Mahindra.  Most of the respondents of vikram load carrier are not satisfied with the services offered by the company; however they prefer local spare parts as they are cheap and easily available in the market.  Maximum of the respondents find vikram load carrier as a good machine which is more economical with a good mileage, low maintenance and spare parts are easily available in interior of the city as well.  About 40 % of the respondents were old user of the vehicle surveyed and rest was the new users.
  • 102. Page | 102  Majority of the respondent find Mahindra and Mahindra and Atul Auto as vikram’s main competitors, although Mahindra and Mahindra vehicles has a bigger load capacity.  Through earning of Atul Auto user are higher than that of vikram , yet it doesn’t affect their perception about these two as the price and maintenance cost of the Atul Auto is in the same proportion as that of earning .  The major finding of the analysis is that the user would prefer diesel engine vehicle over CNG and can even switch over the business, this is due to cost, mileage and availability of CNG which is not readily available.

Page | 104 CONCUSIONS:-  Season plays the vital role in per day income of the load carrier user.  An increased no. of service center of vikram and better service at cheaper rates would make it much more user friendly and easier to retain its market leader position and improve it.  Another problem was finance scheme which have a direct effect on their earning.  The brand image of vikram loaders is strong among the people in the city but they fear any changes in the government regulatory policy which will directly affect them.  Most driver find load permit of vikram load carrier less and want it to be increased.
