beginning revolution in the automobile industry. The Indian car market had stagnated
volume of 30,000 or 40,000 cars a year for the decade ending 1983.In 1993, this figure
reached a 196,456. Marti reached a production of one
million in March 1994, becoming the first Indian Company to cross the milestone, and
crossed the two million in 1997For the year ended 1997-98, Marti posted a turnover of
US$ 2.1 billion and a profit before tax of US$ 244 billion .During the year, Marti

industry for over two decades. The company was born in Feb 1981 through an Act of
Parliament. However, the actual production began in 1983. The company entered into
partnership with Suzuki Motor Corporation of Japan to manufacture cars. The main
intention of introducing Marti Udyog Limited was to help the people for personal mode of

We expect that A-star will enable our company to reach a different level in our exports.
Last year, Marti Suzuki exported 53,000 cars to over 40 countries. This was the highest
ever annual export in our history. However, with the A-star, we are targeting
to make a
quantum jump, and scale up our exports to around 200,000 cars in 2010-11.

launched its strategic model A-star a Euro V compliant model in A-segment to explore new
markets in domestic as well as overseas and primarily to boost its exports in the coming years.
A-star is the fifth world strategic model of its parent company Suzuki, as a part of its global
market strategy for small cars segment and to leverage the low cost manufacturing capabilities
of the company. This car has been designed to keeping in mind aspirations of the urban
environment conscious customers. Company has used latest technologies to make it as most fuel

100,000 in Europe and other parts of the world. Company had already entered into an export
contract for this new model, with Nissan a European auto giant. Company sources believe that

Suzuki wants to celebrate their silver jubilee by exploring new growth opportunities with this
launch and plans to maintain its leadership position which it has for the last 25 years in the
domestic market of Indian Automobile Industry.
16
CURRENT SCENARIO
The global passenger car industry has been facing the problem of excess capacity for quite
some time now. For the year 2002, the global capacity in the automotive industry was 75
million units a year, against production of only 56 million units (excess capacity estimated at
25%). Efforts to shore up capacity utilization have prompted severe price competition, thus
affecting margins and forcing fundamental changes in the industry. The
pressure on sales and margins is driving players to emerging markets in pursuit of better
growth opportunities and/or access to low-cost manufacturing bases.
The concept of selling in the passenger car industry is changing from original sales towards
lifecycle value generation, encompassing financing, repairs & maintenance, cleaning,
provision of accessories, and so on.
Vehicle manufacturers are moving into completely new materials and technologiespartly
guided by environmental legislationin striving to come up with radically different products.
Some of these new technologies involve parts that can be bolted on to an existing vehicle
with relatively few implications for the rest of the vehicle. Others are much more
fundamental, and are likely to have a profound impact throughout the supply chain. The
examples include battery, electric or hybrid power trains, and alternatives to the all-steel
body. Carmakers are increasingly outsourcing component production, and focusing on
product design, brand management and consumer care, in contrast to the traditional emphasis
on manufacturing and engineering.
17
The increasing need to attain global scales underscores the importance of platform sharing
among carmakers. All original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are trying to reduce the
number of vehicle platforms, but raise the number of models produced from each platform.
This means producing a number of seemingly distinct models from a common platform.
Current scenario in Passenger Car Category
The dominant basis of competition in the Indian passenger car industry has changed from
price to price-value, especially in the passenger car segment. While the Indian market
remains price sensitive, the stranglehold of Economy models has been slackening, giving way
to higher-priced products that better meet customer needs. Additionally, a dominant trend in
the Indian passenger car segment is the increasing fragmentation of the market into subsegments, reflecting the increasing sophistication of the Indian consumer. With the launch of
new models from FY2000 onwards, the market for MUVs has been redefined in India,
especially at the upper-end. Currently, the higher-end MUVs, commonly known as Sports
Utility Vehicles (SUVs), occupy a niche in the urban market, having successfully shaken off
the tag of commercial vehicles attached to all MUVs till recently. Domestic car
manufacturers are now venturing into areas such as car financing, leasing and fleet
management, and used-car reconditioning/sales, to complement their mainstay-business of
selling new cars.
Threat from substitutes: Low to mediumWith consumer preferences changing, inter product substitution is taking place (Mini cars are
being replaced by compact or mid sized cars).Setting up integrated manufacturing facilities
may require higher capital investments than establishing assembly facilities for semi knocked
down kits or complete knocked down kits. In recent years, even though the ratio of sales to
capacity (an important indicator of the ability to reach break-even volumes) of the domestic
18
car manufacturers have improved, it is still low for quite a few car manufacturers in India.
India is also likely to increasingly serve as the sourcing base for global automotive
companies, and automotive exports are likely to gain increasing importance over the medium
term. However, the growth rates are likely to vary across segments. Although the Mini
segment is expected to sustain volumes, it is likely to continue losing market share; growth in
the medium term is expected to be led largely by the Compact and Mid-range segments.
Additionally, in terms of engine capacity, the Indian passenger car market is moving towards
cars of higher capacity. This apart, competition is likely to intensify in the SUV segment in
India following the launch of new models at competitive prices.

Performance
As a result of various regulations, the cumulative growth in the PV segment during April 2007March 2008 was 12.17 % in the domestic market. The growth in Passenger Cars was 11.79 %,
Utility Vehicles was 10.57 %, and Multi Purpose Vehicles was 21.39% during this period. The
growth in the Commercial Vehicles segment was marginal at 4.07 %. While growth in Medium
& Heavy Commercial Vehicles declined by 1.66 %, Light Commercial Vehicles recorded a
growth of 12.29%. Three Wheelers sales fell by 9.71% with sales of Goods Carriers declining
significantly by 20.49% and Passenger Carriers declined by 2.13% during FY2008 compared to
last year. Automobile Exports registered a growth of 22.30% during the current financial year.
The growth was led by two-wheelers segment, which grew at 32.31 percent. Commercial
Vehicles and Passenger Vehicles exports grew by 19.10 % and 9.37% respectively. Exports of
Three Wheelers segment declined by 1.85%.
Future Outlook
Automotive industry is moving upward rapidly in the country and in Asian regions, principally
due to a saturation of the automotive industry in the western world. Indian automobile industry
is playing a major role in Asian Automobiles markets along with the Association of South-East
Asian Nations (ASEAN) and China. Various financial institutions and rating agencies analyzed
the growth rate of Indias economy and have forecast a growth in the economy in future at the
rate of 8%. Although the industry bears the brunt of recession, the sales figures of December 08
are true indicators of global slow down. Indias growing middle class, strong economy (although
25
recession has hit the economy, but on an optimistic and positive note, it will soon come over and
bounce back), and trained workforce indicate a bright future

MARUTI PLANS FOR A BIG DIESEL FORAYThe new car manufacturing company, called Marti Suzuki Automobiles India Limited, will be a
joint venture between Marti Udyog and Suzuki Motor Corporation holding a 70 per cent and 30
per cent stake respectively. The Rs1,524.2 crore plant will have a capacity to roll out 1 lakh cars
per year with a capacity to scale up to 2.5 lakh units per annum. The new car manufacturing
plant will begin commercial production by the end of 2006.
Marti would set up a diesel engine plant at Gurgaon in line with its plan to become a major
player in diesel vehicles in a couple of years. This has been done in the wake of major
competition from Tata Indica and meets the growing demand of diesel cars in India. While the
annual growth in the diesel segment was 13 per cent in the last three years, it was 19-20% per
cent in the first quarter (April-June) of the current fiscal. Marti has currently an insignificant
presence in diesel vehicle. It will manufacture new generation CRDI (common rail direct
injection) engines in collaboration with Fiat-GM Opel and engines will be of 1200 cc. The plant
with a capacity to produce one lakh diesel engines would be operational in 2006. At present,
Peugeot of France, supplies diesel engines for Maruti's Zen and mid-sized Esteem models. This
26
will further reduce the imported component in Marti vehicles, making them more competitive in
the Indian market.
KEY SUCCESS FACTORS(1)The Quality Advantage
Marti Suzuki owners experience fewer problems with their vehicles than any other car
manufacturer in India (J.D. Power IQS Study 2004). The Alto was chosen No.1 in the
premium compact car segment and the Esteem in the entry level mid - size car segment
across 9 parameters.
(2)A Buying Experience Like No Other
Marti Suzuki has a sales network of 307 state-of -the-art showrooms across 189 cities, with a
workforce of over 6000 trained sales personnel to guide MUL customers in finding the right
car.
(3)Quality Service Across 1036 Cities
In the J.D. Power CSI Study 2004, Marti Suzuki scored the highest across all 7 parameters:
least problems experienced with vehicle serviced, highest service quality, best in-service
experience, best service delivery, best service advisor experience, most user-friendly service
and best service initiation experience.
92% of Marti Suzuki owners feel that work gets done right the first time during service. The
J.D. Power CSI study 2004 also reveals that 97% of Marti Suzuki owners would probably
recommend the same make of vehicle, while 90% owners would probably repurchase the
same make of vehicle.
(4)One Stop Shop
At Marti Suzuki, customers will find all car related needs met under one roof. Whether it is
easy finance, insurance, fleet management services, exchange- Marti Suzuki is set to provide
a single-window solution for all car related needs.

Hyundai Motor India Limited (HMIL) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Hyundai Motor
Company, South Korea and is the second largest and the fastest growing car manufacturer in
India . HMIL presently markets over 25 variants of passenger cars in six segments. The Santro
in the B segment, and Getz in the B+ segment.
HYUNDAI SANTRO
We are mainly going to concentrate on the various marketing and positioning strategies of
Hyundai Santro as against that of Marti Zen and Alto and Hyundai Getz as against Marti Swift.
POSITIONING OF SANTRO
The old positioning of the Santro was that of a family car, this positioning strategy was
changed in around 2002 and Santro was repositioned as to that of a smart car for young
people. The target age group for the car had now shifted from 30-35 years to 25-30 years. The
repositioning followed the face-lifts the car has been getting from time to time in the form of
engine up gradation, new power steering, automatic transmission, etc, to keep the excitement
around
it
alive
in
the
highly
competitive
small
car
market.
The
repositioning also comes ahead of the possible launch of a new design Santro, and the super Bsegment car Getz, sometime in 2003.
29
With the launch of Marti Swift recently a price war was expected to kick in .Immediately after
Marti raised prices on its debutante Hyundai Motor India hit backwith a Rs 16,000-
19,000 markdown on three new variants of Santro Xing. The company has introduced the XK
and XL variants at a lower tag of Rs 3,26,999 and Rs .3,45,999 respectively. The new price
variants are likely to give Marutis existing B-segment models, Zen and WagonR a run for their
money. Hyundai has also launched a new non-AC variant of the Santro at Rs 2.79 lakh, a tad
higher than what the existing non -Ac Santro costs.
TATA MOTORS-
Established in 1945, Tata Motors is India's largest and only fully integrated automobile
company. Tata Motors began manufacturing commercial vehicles in 1954 with a 15-year
collaboration agreement with Daimler Benz of Germany. Tata Motors Limited is India's
largest automobile company, with consolidated revenues of Rs. 92,519 crores (USD 20
billion) in 2009-10.
POSITIONING OF INDICA
Tata has positioned Indica as `more car per car'. The new car offers more space, more
style, more power and more options. Emphasizing the delivery of world class quality.
They have tried to redefine the small car market as it has been understood in India.True
30
to its "More car per car" positioning, the Indica CNG offers all the core benefits of the
Indica combined with the advantage of CNG. One of the most popular advertisements on
television currently, is the one where the guy portrayed as the loveable liar, gets socked
everytime he lies ; but not when he speaks about the Indica thus implying- must be
true. Elaborating on the campaign, the new ad was launched with the intention of giving
the Indica V2 brand a touch of youthfulness.
After the price war being triggered off by Hyundai being the first company to introduce what
came to be known as, pricing based on customer's value perceptions , all others followed
suit.Telco's Indica came in the range of Rs 2.56 lakh to Rs 3.88 lakh with 4 models. The pricepoints in the car market were replaced by price-bands. The width of a price-band was a
function of the size of the segment being targeted besides the intensity of competition. The
thumb rule being 'the higher the intensity, the wider the price-band.'
Whenever a brand has grown old or its sales start dipping Marti makes some facelifts in the
models. Other changes have been made from time to time based on market responses or
consumer feedbacks or the competitor moves. Here are the certain changes observed in
different models of Marti.
Omni has been given a major facelift in terms of interiors and exteriors two months back. A
new variant called Omni Cargo, which has been positioned as a vehicle for
31
transporting cargo and meant for small traders. It has received a very good response from
market. A variant with LPG is receiving a very good response from customers who look
for low cost of running.
Versa prices have been slashed and right now the lowest variant starts at 3.3 lacs. They
decreased the engine power from 1600cc to 1300cc and modified it again considering
consumers perception. This was a result of intensive survey done all across the nation
regarding the consumer perception of Versa.
Esteem has gone through three facelifts. A new look last year has helped boost up the waning
sales of Esteem.
Baleno was launched in 1999 at 7.2 lacs. In 2002 they slashed prices to 6.4 lacs. In 2003 they
launched a lower variant as Baleno LXi at 5.46 lacs. This was to reduce the price and attract
customers.
Wagon-R was perceived as dull boxy car when it was launched. This made it a big failure on
launch. Then further modifications in engine to increase performance and a facelift in the form
of sporty looking grills on the roof. Now its of the most successful models in Marti stable.
Zen has been modified four times till date. They had come up with a limited period variant
called Zen Classic. That was limited period offer to boost short term sales.
Marti 800 has so far been face lifted two times. Once it came with MPFi technology and other
time it came up with changes in front grill, head light, rear lights and with round curves all
around.
32
The company's 24,000 employees are guided by the vision to be "best in the manner in
which we operate, best in the products we deliver, and best in our value system and ethics."
Established in 1945, Tata Motors' presence indeed cuts across the length and breadth of
India. Over 5.9 million Tata vehicles ply on Indian roads, since the first rolled out in 1954.
The company's manufacturing base in India is spread across Jamshedpur (Jharkhand), Pune
(Maharashtra), Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh), Pantnagar (Uttarakhand) and Dharwad
(Karnataka). Following a strategic alliance with Fiat in 2005, it has set up an industrial joint
venture with Fiat Group Automobiles at Ranjangaon (Maharashtra) to produce both Fiat and
Tata cars and Fiat powertrains. The company is establishing a new plant at Sanand
(Gujarat). The company's dealership, sales, services and spare parts network comprises over
3500 touch points; Tata Motors also distributes and markets Fiat branded cars in India.Tata
Motors, the first company from India's engineering sector to be listed in the New York
Stock Exchange (September 2004), has also emerged as an international automobile
company. Through subsidiaries and associate companies, Tata Motors has operations in the
UK, South Korea, Thailand and Spain. Among them is Jaguar Land Rover, a business
comprising the two iconic British brands that was acquired in 2008. In 2004, it acquired the
Daewoo Commercial Vehicles Company, South Korea's second largest truck maker. The
rechristened Tata Daewoo Commercial Vehicles Company has launched several new
products in the Korean market, while also exporting these products to several international
markets. Today two-thirds of heavy commercial vehicle exports out of South Korea are
from Tata Daewoo. In 2005, Tata Motors acquired a 21% stake in Hispano Carrocera, a
reputed Spanish bus and coach manufacturer, and subsequently the remaining stake in 2009.
Hispano's presence is being expanded in other markets. In 2006, Tata Motors formed a joint
venture with the Brazil-based Marcopolo, a global leader in body-building for buses and
coaches to manufacture fully-built buses and coaches for India and select international
34
markets. In 2006, Tata Motors entered into joint venture with Thonburi Automotive
Assembly Plant Company of Thailand to manufacture and market the company's pickup
vehicles in Thailand. The new plant of Tata Motors (Thailand) has begun production of the
Xe non pickup truck, with the Xenon having been launched in Thailand in 2008. Tata
Motors is committed to improving the quality of life of communities by working on four
thrust areas employability, education, health and environment. The activities touch the
lives of more than a million citizens. The company's support on education and
employability is focused on youth and women. They range from schools to technical
education institutes to actual facilitation of income generation. In health, our intervention is
in both preventive and curative health care. The goal of environment protection is achieved
through tree plantation, conserving water and creating new water bodies and, last but not
the least, by introducing appropriate technologies in our vehicles and operations for
constantly enhancing environment care. With the foundation of its rich heritage, Tata
Motors today is etching a refulgent future.

slowdown, the sales of Marti Suzuki increased from Rs 17,860 Crore to Rs 20358 Crore. [3] This
was mainly due to the strong presence of the company in the small car segment, which was not
affected by the downturn. But due to the increase in the material cost on account of increased

VARIOUS STEPS IN SELECTING CANDIDATES
1-RESUME /CVS REVIEWUnder recruitment process, after receipt of resume /CVs from the candidates they are
scrutinized .scrutiny of resume is the first step of selection process in Marti Udyog India.
Reviews of Resume are done to verify whether the candidates fulfil all the qualifications
essential for the job. The applicants may put forth their conditions regarding salary, duration,
promotion, incentives etc.Those candidates whose conditions are not acceptable to the
organization are not called for preliminary interview and a regret letter is issued to them citing
reasons.
2-SCREENING INTERVIEWA preliminary interview is generally planned by large organizations to cut the cost of selection
by allowing only eligible candidates to go through the further stages in the selection.Persoonel
Department may elicit responses from the applicants on important items determining the
suitability of an applicants for a job such as age ,education ,experience, pay grade, aptitude
tests ,location ,etc.
3-APPLICATION FORMApplication Form is one of the most common methods used to collect information on the
various aspects of the applicants academic. social, demographic, work related background and
references. The brief history of employees backgrounds usually contains following things:
Marital Status
Educational Data
Employment Data
54
4-SELECTION TESTSThe selection tests or the employment tests that attempts to assess intelligence ,abilities
,potential ,personality trait ,performance simulation tests including work sampling and the tests
administered at assessment centres and various tests like polygraph test , graphology and
integrity tests are carried out.
Some of the commonly used employment tests are:
a)
Psychometric tests
b)
Intelligence tests
c)
Interest tests
d)
Achievement tests
e)
Simulation tests
PSYCOMETRIC TESTSPsychometric tests are structured, pencil and paper (or sometimes computer-based) exercises,
often presented in the form of multiple-choice questions. They are designed to assess your
reasoning abilities or how you respond to different situations. The tests that employers use
should have been carefully researched and trailed, to ensure that they provide valid assessments
of the people who are likely to take them.
Why do recruiters use psychometric tests?
Employers use a variety of methods to select the right people, and the greater the variety of
situations in which a selector can see you perform, and the greater the number of skills that are
being tested, the more accurate and objective the assessment should be. Tests are simply one
way of testing the competencies relevant to a specific job, and should ideally be designed with
that type of work in mind.
55
From an employer's point of view, tests are also a reasonably cost-efficient way of assessing a
large number of applicants; this probably explains why many organizations use them to preselect candidates for (comparatively expensive) interviews.
What types of tests are used?
There are two main types of psychometric tests:
56
Personality questionnaires explore the way you tend to react to, or deal with, different
situations. They are 'self-report' questionnaires (meaning that a profile is drawn up from your
responses to a number of questions or statements) and focus on a variety of personality factors,
such as how you relate to other people, your ability to deal with your own and others' emotions,
your motivations and determination and your general outlook. Unlike aptitude tests there is no
right or wrong answers, and questionnaires are usually completed in your own time. From your
responses the selector gains information about your style of behaviour - how and why you do
things in your own way. You may receive some feedback on the profile which your answers
produce, and occasionally it might form the basis for discussion at a subsequent interview. The
selectors will not be looking for a rigid 'typical' personality profile, although certain
characteristics may be more or less appropriate for particular jobs or organizations.
Questionnaires exploring your interests or values are much less commonly used in selection.
These are designed to clarify what fields of work interest you or what factors make work
worthwhile for you. You are more likely to come across them in a careers guidance setting, or
in an appraisal/development context once in work.
INTELLIGENCE TESTSThese are mental ability tests .They measure the incumbents learning ability and ability to
understand instructions, make judgement. These tests measure several abilities such as memory,
vocabulary, verbal ability, numerical ability, perception etc. E.g. Stand ford Binet, Binet
Simon Test, Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale are e.g. of standard intelligence tests.
INTEREST TESTThe objective of this test is to examine the interest in a special work. On the basis of such test it
becomes easy to appoint the candidate on the job of his interest .As a result, applicant gets
maximum job satisfaction & he plays significant role in the success of the organization.
57
ACHIEVEMENT TESTSThese tests are held to measure the capacity the efficiency level of applicants. Like a typing test
shows the proficiency, short hand test measures the ability to take dictation .These test are
known as Work Sampling Tests. But this test is not applicable to all levels of the organization.
SIMULATION TESTSThis test is an exercise which duplicates many of the activities & problem, an employees faces
while at work. These are used when company used to hire managers at various levels in an
orgaanisation.
58
GRAPHOLOGY TESTSThis test involves using a trained evaluator to examine the lines ,loops stokes, curves ,and
flourishes handwriting to assess the persons personality and emotional make-up. This method
is dependent on the training and expertise of the person doing the analysis.
POLYGRAPH TESTSThis is also called Lie Detector Tests .This records physical changes in the body as the tests
subjects answers a series of questions. It records the fluctuations in respiration .blood pressure
on a moving roll of graph paper. This proves that the responses recorded by the polygraph
occur only because a lie has been told? But these tests are neither reliable nor valid also.
INTEGRITY TESTSThese are designed to measure employees honestly to predict those who are more likely to steal
from an employer or otherwise act in a manner unacceptable to the organization. The applicants
who take these tests are expected to answer several yes or no type questions.
TESTS AS A SELECTION TOOLTests are useful selection devices in which cover qualifications and talents are detected. Tests
also provide unbiased information that can be put to scientific and statically analysis.
5- PRELIMINARY INTERVIEW
Preliminary Interview is brief, first round interviews that aim to eliminate the applicants who
59
In unstructured interview, the interviewer does not plan the course of interview; instead the
candidate is usually allowed to set the course of the interview.
6-CORE AND DEPARTMENTAL INTERVIEWThis is the most essential step in the Selection Process. When applicant used to clear all tests
relating to employment he or she is called for core and departmental interviews or final
interview. This interview is held out to check out the candidates performance level, presence of
mind, his field of interest, etc. In this step the interviewer matches the information obtained
about the candidates through various means to job requirements .Interview gives recruiter an
opportunity-
PANEL INTERVIEW
PATTERNED INTERVIEW
STRUCTURED OR SITUATIONAL INTERVIEW

CONCLUSION
The Indian Autimobile industry is world class in customer satisfaction, quality, and people
satisfaction. But to sustain its growth and performance, it needs to continue its focus on
processes and people. The industry now needs to focus on employee retention and becoming
more efficient.
Currently attrition rate in this industry is very high with most of them looking for better
careers within the same industry. Better recruitment strategies and tactics could help in
tapping the potential candidates.
While retention is to do with motivation levels in a company, by doing so, the company can
face the challenge of making its hiring decisions wiser in the longer run and by
concentrating on the employability of a candidate rather than the current employment
requirements. For any company recruitment and selection process is an important factor
because a good and ser comparative study of skilled employees can increase the higher rate
of industry.
81
In this research I,had acknowledged ,after comparative study of both the companies of Marti
and Tata Motors that
its workforce.
Identifying and preparing potential job applicants who will appropriate.
Candidates.
At last, the conclusion aimed that Marti Suzuki recruitment policy is most better than Tata
Motors because of some of the following reasons:1).Choose or hire right people, for right job.

externally the employees are transfer from one post to another and they are trustworthy .
3).Recruitment policy is done through online processing where the employees and the h.r
manager can interact face to face ,and the company can somehow judge from his /her
personality also.
4). Marti perform written test for there employees to know about there skills,knowledge in
that field.So that he can know about the employees background.
5).Marti employees are most satisfied than Tata Motors employees because they provide
many facilities to there staff .like compensation ,rewards etc,where as Tata Motors employees
are not satisfied with there organization they usually dont provide any facilities.
82
SUGGESTION
In order to fix the problem of attrition, the company can opt for the following options or
suggestion:
1
By hiring outstation candidates (from small towns) and providing them with shared
accommodation.
social gathering or celebrating festivals together with the family members included.
4
By giving health insurance facility to make him feel that the company really cares for
its employees health.

necessary data to complete the project may not gather in proper manner. The
limitations which we observe were as follows:
85
With respect to actual population the sample size was too small. This might be effect
the final result.
The time limit for the research was one week in every section that was small time to
collect adequate information from both the company employees.
