PREFACE

Master of Business Administration Programme (M.B.A) is one of the most reputed and sought after professional courses in the field of management. This course includes both theory and its applications as per contents of its curriculum. Summer Internship Project Report is an integral part of this course. As good management is much essential for any organization for its all-round growth and development, there is a growing demand of management professionals in each and every field; may it be an IT company, a manufacturing company or even a hospital. But this is also to be noticed that without practical exposure management students are not yet ready to serve a company, hence for this discipline practical training is of high importance which gives a good exposure about the actual working conditions and also for learning of the implementation of all those theories given in the literature. The training project report presented here helped me in learning the practical aspects of the working and business in the telecom sector

Executive summary

Put simply, customer acquisition refers to gaining new consumers. Acquiring new customers involves persuading consumers to purchase a company’s product and or services. Companies and organizations consider the cost of customer acquisition as an important measure in evaluating how much value customers bring to their business. This study is aimed to analyse the acquisition programme of recently launched reliance industry’s telecomm-“jio”. Reliance Jio crossed the fifty million subscriber mark in less than three months after its full fledged 4G launch. According to source jio’s liberal data packs ,unlimited voice calls and nationwide roaming has had a definite impact ,having already garnered 72 million subscriber . Jio is also far ahead of market leader airtel and Vodafone in bandwidth speed. Hence, keeping all this in mind it is very important to understand the reasons behind jio’s huge success and its marketing strategy. A solid customer acquisition strategy is a component of any successful business.

Introduction

1.1 Overview of the industry as a whole Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) is an Indian conglomerate holding company headquartered in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. Reliance owns businesses across India engaged in energy, petrochemicals, textiles, natural resources, retail, and telecommunications. Reliance is the third most profitable company in India, the second-largest publicly traded company in India by market capitalization, and the second largest company in India as measured by revenue after the government-controlled Indian Oil Corporation. The company is ranked 215th on the Fortune Global 500 list of the world's biggest corporations as of 2016. It is ranked 8th among the Top 250 Global Energy Companies by Platts as of 2016.

HISTORY:

1960–1980

The company was co-founded by Dhirubhai Ambani and his brother Champaklal Damani in 1960s as Reliance Commercial Corporation. In 1965, the partnership ended and Dhirubhai continued the polyester business of the firm. In 1966, Reliance Textiles Industries Pvt Ltd was incorporated in Maharashtra. It established a synthetic fabrics mill in the same year at Naroda in Gujarat. In 1975, the company expanded its business into textiles, with "Vimal" becoming its major brand in later years. The company held its Initial public offering (IPO) in 1977. The issue was over-subscribed by seven times. In 1979, a textiles company Sidhpur Mills was amalgamated with the company.] In 1980, the company expanded its polyester yarn business by setting up a Polyester Filament Yarn Plant in Raigad, Maharashtra with financial and technical collaboration with E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Co., U.S.

1981–2000 11

In 1985, the name of the company was changed from Reliance Textiles Industries Ltd. to Reliance Industries Ltd. During the years 1985 to 1992, the company expanded its installed capacity for producing polyester yarn by over 145,000 tonnes per annum.

The Hazira petrochemical plant was commissioned in 1991–92.

In 1995/96, the company entered the telecom industry through a joint venture with NYNEX, USA and promoted Reliance Telecom Private Limited in India. In 1998/99, RIL introduced

packaged LPG in 15 kg cylinders under the brand name Reliance Gas. The years 1998–2000 saw the construction of the integrated petrochemical complex at Jamnagar in Gujarat, the largest refinery in the world.

2001 Onwards

In 2001, Reliance Industries Ltd. and Reliance Petroleum Ltd. became India's two largest companies in terms of all major financial parameters. In 2001–02, Reliance Petroleum was merged with Reliance Industries. In 2002–03, RIL purchased a majority stake in Indian Petrochemicals Corporation Ltd. (IPCL), India's second largest petrochemicals company, from Government of India. IPCL was later merged with RIL in 2008... In 2006, Reliance entered the organised retail market in India with the launch of its retail store format under the brand name of 'Reliance Fresh'. In 2010, Reliance entered Broadband services market with acquisition of Infotel Broadband Services Limited, which was the only successful bidder for pan-India fourth-generation (4G) spectrum auction held by Government of India. In the same year, Reliance and BP announced a partnership in the oil and gas business. Reliance also formed a 50:50 joint venture with BP for sourcing and marketing of gas in India. In 2012,

12

RIL set up a joint venture with Russian Company Sibur for setting up a Butyl rubber plant in Jamnagar, Gujarat. The plant was scheduled to be operational in 2015.

1.2 ABOUT THE COMPANY

Reliance JIO : Introduction

Reliance Jio promises to shape the future of India by providing end-to-end digital solutions for businesses, institutions and households and seamlessly bridging the rural-urban divide.

Home to the world’s second largest population of 1.2 billion, India is a young nation with 63% of its population under the age of 35 years. It has a fast growing digital audience with 800 million mobile connections and over 200 million internet users. Reliance thoroughly believes in India’s potential to lead the world with its capabilities in innovation. Towards that end, Reliance envisages creation of a digital revolution in India.

Reliance Jio aims to enable this transformation by creating not just a cutting-edge voice and broadband network, but also a powerful ecosystem on which a range of rich digital services will be enabled – a unique green-field opportunity.

The three-pronged focus on broadband networks, affordable smartphones and the availability of rich content and applications has enabled Jio to create an integrated business strategy from the very beginning, and today, Jio is capable of offering a unique combination of telecom, high speed data, digital commerce, media and payment services.

A Vision That Touches All

13

Reliance’s vision for India is that broadband and digital services will no longer be a luxury item. Rather, Reliance envisions an India where these are basic necessities to be consumed in abundance by consumers and small businesses alike, as much in far-flung villages as in our largest cities. The initiatives are truly aligned with the Government of India's ‘Digital India’ vision for our nation.

Products and Services

4G Broadband

The company launched its 4G broadband services throughout India on September 2016. It was slated to release in December 2015 after some reports said that the company was waiting to receive final permits from the government. Mukesh Ambani, owner of Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) whose Reliance Jio is the telecom subsidiary, had unveiled details of Jio's fourth-generation (4G) services on 12 June 2015 at RIL's 41st annual general meeting. It offers data and voice services with peripheral services like instant messaging, live TV, movies on demand, news, streaming music, and a digital payments platform.

The company has a network of more than 250,000 km of fiber optic cables in the country, over which it will be partnering with local cable operators to get broader connectivity for its broadband services. With its multi-service operator (MSO) licence, Jio will also serve as a TV channel distributor and will offer television-on-demand on its network.

LYF Smartphone

In June 2015, Jio tied up with domestic handset maker Intex to supply 4G handsets enabled with voice over LTE (VoLTE) feature. Through this, it plans to offer 4G voice calling besides rolling out high-speed Internet services using a fiber network, in addition to the 4G wireless network. 14

However, in October 2015, Jio announced that it would be launching its own mobile handset brand named LYF.

On 25 January 2016, the company launched its LYF smartphone series starting with Water 1, through its chain of electronic retail outlets, Reliance Retail. Three more handset models have been released so far, namely Water 2, Earth 1, and Flame 1.

SWOT ANALYSIS

SWOT analysis is a framework used to evaluate a company's competitive position by identifying its strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. Specifically, SWOT analysis is a foundational assessment model that measures what an organization can and cannot do, and its potential opportunities and threats.

Elements of a SWOT Analysis When using SWOT analysis, an organization needs to be realistic about its good and bad points. The organization needs to keep the analysis specific by avoiding gray areas and analyzing in relation to real-life contexts. For example, how do the organization’s products and services compare to those of competing firms? SWOT analysis should be short and simple, and should avoid complexity and over-analysis because much of the information is subjective. Thus, companies should use it as a guide and not a prescription. 

Strengths describe what an organization excels at and separates it from the competition: a strong brand, loyal customer base, a strong balance sheet, unique technology and so on. For example, a hedge fund may have developed a 20

proprietary trading strategy that returns market-beating results. It must then decide how to use those results to attract new investors.



Weaknesses stop an organization from performing at its optimum level. They are areas where the business needs to improve to remain competitive: higher-thanindustry-average turnover, high levels of debt, an inadequate supply chain or lack of capital.



Opportunities refer to favorable external factors that an organization can use to give it a competitive advantage. For example, a car manufacturer can export its cars into a new market, increasing sales and market share, if a country cuts tariffs.



Threats refer to factors that have the potential to harm an organization. For example, a drought is a threat to a wheat-producing company, as it may destroy or reduce the crop yield. Other common threats include things like rising costs for inputs, increasing competition, tight labor supply and so on.

Advantages of SWOT Analysis

A SWOT analysis is a great way to guide business-strategy meetings. It's powerful to have everyone in the room to discuss the company's core strengths and weaknesses and then move from there to defining the opportunities and threats, and finally to brainstorming ideas. Oftentimes, the SWOT analysis you envision before the session changes throughout to reflect factors you were unaware of and would never have captured if not for the group’s input. A company can use a SWOT for overall business-strategy sessions or for a specific segment like marketing, production or sales. This way, you can see how the overall strategy developed off the SWOT analysis will filter down to the segments below before 21

committing to it. You can also work in reverse with segment-specific SWOT analysis that feeds into an overall SWOT analysis.

STRENGTHS 1. Low tariff: - Company has launched its 4G service with highly competitive or rather very low tariff. Company has strong financial capacity to withstand initial losses 2. Very wide network:-Company has created wide national network with a huge investment of around $20 billon. The company has used latest technology and hence capable to give quality service. 3. Brand Name: - Brand Value of company is very high.

WEAKNESSES 1. Late entry into telecommunication sector: - The telecom sector had grown exponencially in its initial phases which started around two decades earlier. Presently market has seen only modest growth and it has become highly competitive due to entry big players such as Vodafone, Idea etc. 2. Operation of Mobile Number Portability Still not smooth:- Nowadays mobile number has become identity of a person and hence it is difficult for anyone to change his mobile number.MNP takes many days for its implementation and it is hard to manage this transition period. MNP is crucial for Jio as a large number of customer is expected through migration from existing service providers. 3. Highly dependent upon data consumption: - As per the current trend around 60 to 70 percent of revenue comes from voice calling and hence there is a huge potential loss for making voice calling free. This loss can be offset only when consumption of data increases manifold.

OPPORTUNITIES 1. Large scale availability of smart phones: In last 2 decades the number of people using Smartphone has increased manifolds. If company is able to provide quality service at competitive rate it can quickly grab large number of customers.

22

2. Increasing rate of data consumption: In its earlier phase almost entire revenue of the mobile service provider was from voice calling. However since last two years the proportion of revenue from data users is increasing exponentially which has resulted in almost 30-40% of the total revenue. Lower data tariff may further increase data consumption and thus contribute more to the revenue of company. 3. International market:-There is huge opportunity in many developing countries

THREATS 1. Saturated market:- The initial phase of rapid increase in subscriber is now over. A new entrant like Jio needs a large customer base to cross breakeven point. 2. Highly competitive market:- After the entry of big players like Vodafone,Idea etc the market has become highly competitive. 3. Changing Government Policy: The changing government policy like cancelling of 2G licences ,imposition of tax with retrospective effect(on Vodafone), refund for call drop etc, has created uncertainty in the market causing adverse impact on the investment sentiment. 4. Rapid upgradation in Technology:- From 2G to 3G and 3G to 4G changes have occurred in very short span of time. Even next generation 5G is approaching shortly.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Research methodology is the specific procedures or techniques used to identify, select, process, and analyze information about a topic . in a research paper, the methodology section allows the reader to critically evaluate a study’s overall validity and reliability.

2.1 Statement of the problem The basic problem of this particular research to be conducted is, the customer satisfaction after using the Jio, this research is carried mainly to focus on the existing customer and there satisfaction. Service industry is a large chunk so we cannot give 100 percent assurance to the service we provide all the time. So rectify the minor problems which may happen after the purchase, these thing are being critically analysed with the help of the questionnaire.

2.2 Objectives of research problem: 

To understand the Satisfaction level of the customer using Reliance Jio



To determine the future expectation towards services provide by Reliance Jio.



To analyse demographic factors of Reliance Jio users.



To determine the performance of the services provided by Reliance Jio.

2.3 Scope of the study: This is an initiative in order to connect with people who are related to the organisation i.e. Customers. The organisation had difficulties to connect with the people related to the problems which the clients face so the research is based on the satisfaction level of the customers and there feedback being recorded for the improvement of the service and the company. 25

2.4 Significance of the study: This study is conducted to analyse the effectiveness of Customer satisfaction with reference to Cluster Sampling. A study like this can attempt to guide the future plan for organization which will lead to the growth of the company and the increase of market share

2.5 Types of Research and Research Design

In every aspect of project which is designed on the basis of some observation and research is made with adapting particular methods and techniques. while doing the research it is necessary that every information should be unbiased and not prejudiced based on truth and veracity. So, for every project a proper methodology should be used which can minimize our efforts and give us the maximum output with optimal use of the resources. Type 1: Qualitative Market Research Qualitative research helps to understand customers and their needs Qualitative research is used to help us understand how people feel about company and products. And help to find out why they feel as they do. It is concerned with collecting indepth information asking questions related to product. Samples collected for this method are smaller. Depth interviews gives good information related to research. Question asking related to product quality, services provided by the company, related to customer satisfaction and market potential.

TYPE 2: Quantitative Market Research Quantitative research helps to segmenting customers. Quantitative research is used to measure how many people feel, think or act in a similar manner about company and products. These surveys tend to include large samples. Structured questionnaires are usually used incorporating mainly closed questions - questions with set

26

responses. There are various vehicles used for collecting quantitative information but the most common are personal interviews. Research design specifies the methods and procedures for conducting a particular study. A research design is the arrangement of conditions for collection and analysis of the data in a manner that aims to combine relevance to their search purpose with economy in procedure. Research design is broadly classified into three types as:  Exploratory Research Design  Descriptive Research Design  Causal Research Design

Descriptive Research Design

Descriptive research studies are those studies which are concerned with described the characteristics of individual. In descriptive as well as in diagnostic studies, the researcher must be able to define clearly, what he wants to measure and must find adequate methods for measuring it along with a clear-cut definition of population he want to study. Since the aim is to obtain complete and accurate information in the said studies, the procedure to be used must be carefully planned. The research design must make enough provision for protection against bias and must maximize reliability, with due concern for the economical completion of the research study.

2.6 Sampling Procedure: 

Sample Size: 4



Type of research: Descriptive Research



Sampling Technique: The sampling techniques used in this project are Convenience sampling.



Sampling Area: Patna, Bihar 27

2.7 Source of data collection: 

Primary data: Primary data is collected from existing and prospective customers by: a. Questionnaire: A well-structured questionnaire was used as a tool for asking a set of standardized questions to know the effectiveness of different channels of marketing for their response. The data was collected by continuous field survey during the internship period. b. Interview: The next step involved in collecting primary information was done by discussion with people. Thus valuable information was gathered through informal friendly talks with the people.

2.8 Limitations of study

 The limitation which I faced during my study was that most of the client hadn’t entertain me.  And when I was calling dealers for meeting at that time they hadn’t showing interest.  The location was not specified clearly I had to randomly go to the different societies for my survey.

CONCEPTUAL DISCUSSION

3.1 Review of Literature Jio is the telecommunication company owned by reliance ltd. It emerges growing fastest telecom operator in india as data published in a review of literature jai Bhatia economic & political weekly October8,2016 vol ll no 41.Jio came up with a vision to generate huge revenue by providing quality service at a cheaper rate using the latest technology. Initially ,its growth is high.in the Indian market, it is the first mover advantage for jio with a biggest 4G network coverage infrastructure all across 22 telecom circles in India. None of its competitors is having such biggest infrastructure for infrastructure. As we saw in the year 2012-13, india is 150th in the world in mobile broadband presentation as well as quality and Jio has really been conceived to change this position, “ the Indian billionre said. Jai Bhatia, avail rao palepu in their paper reliance, predatory pricing or predatory behaviour (October 8,2016) says that Jio can also be understood by predatory pricing strategy to some extent in the beginning. Jio is also followed the same strategy which made their competitors think about their pricing process they all have tried to reduce and match with the pricing level of jio price. According to the data published www.paulasset.com,reliance jio is good for the Indian market because it is giving best quality on lower price .the data also explains that presently jio data traffic is higher (TRAI DATA) compared to its competitors .Jio is also threatening “ as it is expected that it will kill more than 30 business within next 5 to 10years”,according to poulasset jio will acquire and will hold a major number of market shares in the following areas.

Data Analysis and Data Interpretation

32

4.1 Data Analysis

Data analysis is a practice in which raw data is ordered and organized so that useful information can be extracted from it. The process of organizing and thinking about data is key to understanding what the data does and does not contain. There are a variety of ways in which people can approach data analysis, and it is notoriously easy to manipulate data during the analysis phase to push certain conclusions or agendas. For this reason, it is important to pay attention when data analysis is presented, and to think critically about the data and the conclusions which were drawn. Raw data can take a variety of forms, including measurements, survey responses, and observations. In its raw form, this information can be incredibly useful, but also overwhelming. Over the course of the data analysis process, the raw data is ordered in a way which will be useful. For example, survey results may be tallied, so that people can see at a glance how many people answered the survey, and how people responded to specific questions. In the course of organizing the data, trends often emerge; modeling the data with the use of mathematics and other tools can sometimes exaggerate such points of interest in the data, making them easier for the researcher to see. Charts, graphs, and textual writeups of data are all forms of data analysis. These methods are designed to refine and distill the data so that readers can glean interesting information without needing to sort through all of the data on their own.

33

4.2Data Analysis process Once the necessary data collected, the next task is to aggregate the data in a meaningful manner. A number of tables are prepared to bring out the main characteristics of the data. The researcher should have a well thought out framework for processing and analyzing data, and this should be done prior to the collection. It includes the following activities: 1. Editing The first task in data processing is the editing. Editing is the process of examining errors and omissions in the collected data and making necessary corrections in the same. 2. Coding Coding is necessary to carry out the subsequent operations of tabulating and analyzing data. If coding is not done, it will not be possible to reduce a large number of heterogeneous data into meaningful categories with the result that the analysis of data would be weak and ineffective, and without proper focus. 3. Tabulation Tabulation comprises sorting of the data into different categories and counting the number of cases that belong to each category. This is also called universal tabulation. The analysis based on just one variable is obviously meager. Where two or more variables are involved in tabulation, it is called vicariate or multivariate tabulation. 4. Analysis After the all three above steps, the most important step is analysis of the data.

Conclusions: This study undertaken by me is an attempt to understand, and appreciate the plans and processes involved in acquiring customers in case of Jio. Through Jio, I have identified various channels of acquisition, their different respective approaches. This study helped me in understanding that how subscriber data and voice usage are tracked with the help of technical tools like – “Jio Analytics” . An analysis of competitors of Jio and their various plans have been compared in this project that provided me with a deeper understanding of the differentiation strategy undertook by Jio. Jio has entered the telecom sector recently. Hence, choosing this project involved an insight into the development of a marketing plan. Customer acquisition will always be a driver for businesses, which is the main reason inbound marketing is such a rapid growth industry right now. Inbound tools are ideal for attracting qualified potential clients and converting them into sales. This project also includes a study of the telecom sector as a whole and through Jio, this project provides a brief introduction and idea about the basics of telecom industry. A good business is the one which is win-win for all parties involved, and Jio is doing it pretty well. Data is the oxygen of digital life. Jio is more than just a business
