Introduction
Automotive industry, globally, as well in India, is one of the key sectors of the economy.
Therefore the industry is recognized as one of the drivers of economic growth as it contributes
significantly to the overall GDP of the nation. It has been identified as a sector with a high
potential to increase exports and employment.
With a high cost of developing production facilities, limited accessibility to new technology, andincreasing competition, the barriers to enter the Indian Automotive sector are high.
The key to success in the industry is to improve labor productivity, labor flexibility, and capital
efficiency. Having quality manpower, infrastructure improvements, and raw material availability
also play a major role.
Access to latest and most efficient technology and techniques will bring competitive advantage tothe major players
Utilizing manufacturing plants to optimum level and understanding implications from the
government policies are the essentials in the Automotive Industry of India.

Five Force Model
Michael Porter identifies five forces that influence an industry. These forces are
Degree of Rivalry
Despite the high concentration ratio seen in the automotive sector, rivalry in the Indian auto sector is intense
due to the entry of foreign companies in the market. The industry rivalry is extremely high with any being
product being matched in a few months by the competitors.
Threat of Substitutes
The threat of substitutes to the automotive industry is fairly mild. Numerous other forms of transportation are
available, but none offer the utility, convenience, independence and value offered by automobiles.
Barriers to entry
The barriers to enter automotive industry are substantial. For a new company, the startup capital required to
establish manufacturing capacity to achieve minimum efficient scale is prohibitive.
Suppliers power
In the relationship between the industry and its suppliers, the power axis is tipped in industrys favor. The
industry is comprised of powerful buyers who are generally able to dictate their terms to the suppliers.
Buyers Power
In the relationship between the automotive industry and its ultimate consumers, the power axis is tipped in the
consumers favor due to the fairly standardized nature and the low switching costs associated with selecting
from among competing brands.

Market Structure and Implications
The automobile industry in India, follows a strictly oligopoly-type structure with the characteristics.
An industry dominated by a small number of large firms
Firms sell either identical or differentiated products in terms of service quality and offerings
The industry has significant barriers to entry
Few number of firms contributing to majority of the market share

Market Structure and Implications
PRICE MECHANISM IS OLIGOPOLY MARKET
Point A represents the price in an oligopoly market. Above this price, an individual firm is afraid of
increasing prices. The perception is that the competition will not follow a firms price increase. If
they do not follow they will get the firms customers and sales. Therefore a price increase would
create an elastic demand curve above price P. If demand is elastic and prices rise, then total revenuefalls.
A price decrease has a similar effect. The reasoning is that if the competitor does not follow the
price cut, firms will entice customers away from the competitor. Therefore the competition must
follow price cuts or lose customers and sales. As a result a price decrease would create an inelastic
demand curve below price P. If demand is inelastic and prices decrease, then total revenue also
falls.

Market Structure and Implications
KINKED DEMAND CURVE
The following figure shows the kinked demand and marginal revenue curve. The profit maximizing level
of output occurs when marginal revenue = marginal costs, and the profit maximizing price is the
maximum price consumers will pay for that level of output. The kinked shaped marginal revenue curve
implies that there exists a range over which changes in marginal costs will not impact the profit-
maximizing level of output. Therefore, firms may have no incentive to change price provided that
marginal costs remains in a given range. Because of the effect a firms price changes have on the
behavior of competitors, firms in a oligopoly do not want to change their prices.

How does such advertising help consumers and promote efficiency
Advertising can create brand loyalty and decrease the price elasticity of demand.
Advertising can also provide information about where products can be found, thereby increasing
competition.
As a consequence, advertising can result in either an increase or a decrease in the price of the
product compared to what it would be if there were no advertising in the industry. Advertising
increases costs. However, advertising can also increase revenues. So advertising may cause profits
to either increase or decrease relative to what they would be if there were no advertising in the
industry.

The power of Advertising
Advertising has the power to persuade, the power to influence the mind and shape destiny.
It has the power to change markets and improve profit margins.
Advertising has short-term power (conveying new information, building awareness, enhancing
credibility, etc.) and long-term power (conveying brand image, attaching emotional values to the
brand, building positive reputation, etc.).
The companies that master the creative guidance and the testing systems to consistently develop
and deploy great advertising will own the future and the fortunes that go with it.
Great advertising is a cloak of invincibility.

per cent for the FMCG sector as analyzed by the ASSOCHAM Eco Pulse (AEP) Study.

Effects : Pricing and Incentives
[14]
Pricing plays important role in capturing market share - specifically with Indian consumers
Competitive Pricing within a car segment and between segments.
It has resulted in new segments being created Ertiga ( supposedly a comptetitor to Innova)
Promotional incentives increase the value of the product to the consumer.
Positive short-term effects of promotions
Promotional growth need strong backing from quality product

Effects : New Products and Innovation
[15]
Revenue from new products take considerable time and also depends on several factors, including thedegree of product innovation.
New-product introductions may have a persistent effect on revenues, as opposed to price promotions
Price promotions produce only temporary benefits.
Effect of new product could be temporary due to limited innovation
Effect of new product could be long term when it transforms competitive capabilities.
Long-term profit benefits can be jeopardized by several factors development and production costs are considerable(new-car platforms cost over one billion
dollars (Wall Street Journal 2002c). New-product launch consumes considerable marketing resources, especially for a major
innovation.

Effects : New Products and Innovation
[16]
Finally, we recognize that dynamic feedback loops may exist among marketing
variables, among performance variables and between marketing andperformance variables.
Marketing actions such as new- product introductions and promotionalincentives are often related over time
Successful new-product introductions can increase a brands price premium andmake promotions redundant
In contrast, a prolonged absence of successful new-product introduction mayforce a company to use promotional incentives in order to move product.
