India has the largest number of two wheelers in the world with 41.6 millionvehicles. India has a mix of 30 percent automobiles and 70 percent two wheelers in thecountry. India was the second largest two wheeler manufacturer in the world starting inthe 1950’s with the birth of Automobile Products of India (API) that manufacturedscooters. API manufactured the Lambrettas but, another company, Bajaj Auto Ltd.surpassed API and remained through the turn of the century from its association withPiaggio of Italy (manufacturer of Vespa).

The license raj that existed between the1940s to1980s in India, did not allow foreign

companies to enter the market and imports were tightly controlled. This regulatory maze, before the economic liberalization, made business easier for local players to have aseller’s market. Customers in India were forced to wait 12 years to buy a scooter fromBajaj. The CEO of Bajaj commented that he did not need a marketing department, only adispatch department. By the year 1990, Bajaj had a waiting list that was twenty-six timesits annual output for scooters.

The motorcycle segment had the same long wait times with three manufacturers; RoyalEnfield, Ideal Jawa, and Escorts. Royal Enfield made a 350cc Bullet with the only four-stroke engine at that time and took the higher end of the market but, there was littlecompetition for their customers. Ideal Jawa and Escorts took the middle and lower end of 

the market respectively.

In the mid-1980s, the Indian government regulations changed and permitted foreigncompanies to enter the Indian market through minority joint ventures. The two-wheeler market changed with four Indo-Japanese joint ventures: Hero Honda, TVS Suzuki, BajajKawasaki and Kinetic Honda. The entry of these foreign companies changed the Indianmarket dynamics from the supply side to the demand side. With a larger selection of two-wheelers on the Indian market, consumers started to gain influence over the productsthey bought and raised higher customer expectations. The industry produced moremodels, styling options, prices, and different fuel efficiencies. The foreign companiesnew technologies helped make the products more reliable and with better quality. Indian

companies had to change to keep up with their global counterparts.

Company Profile

“Hero”, is the brand name used by the Munjal brothers in the year 1956 with the flagshipcompany Hero Cycles. The two-wheeler manufacturing business of bicycle componentshad originally started in the 1940’s and turned into the world’s largest bicycle

manufacturer today. Hero, is a name synonymous with two-wheelers in India today. TheMunjals roll their own steel, make free wheel bicycle critical components and havediversified into different ventures like product design. The Hero Group philosophy is:“To provide excellent transportation to the common man at easily affordable prices andto provide total satisfaction in all its spheres of activity”. The Hero group vision is to build long lasting relationships with everyone (customers, workers, dealers and vendors).The Hero Group has a passion for setting higher standards and “EngineeringSatisfaction” is the prime motivation, way of life and work culture of the Group.

In the year 1984, Mr. Brijmohan Lal Munjal, the Chairman and Managing Director of Hero Honda Motors (HHM), headed an alliance between the Munjal family and Honda

Motor Company Ltd. (HMC). HHM Mission Statement is: “We, at Hero Honda, arecontinuously striving for synergy between technology, systems, and human resources to provide products and services that meet the quality, performance, and price aspirations of our customers. While doing so, we maintain the highest standards of ethics and societalresponsibilities, constantly innovate products and processes, and develop teams that keepthe momentum going to take the company to excellence in the new millennium”. Thisalliance became one of the most successful joint ventures in India, until the year 1999when HMC had announced a 100% subsidiary, Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India(HMSI). This announcement caused the HHM stock price to decrease by 30 percent thatsame day. Munjal had to come up with some new strategic decisions as, HMSI and other foreign new entry companies were causing increased intensity of rivalry for HHM.

== Growth == The business growth of Hero Honda has been phenomenal throughout itsearly days. The Munjal family started a modest business of bicycle components. HeroGroup expanded so big that by 2002 they had sold 86 million bicycles producing 16000  bicycles a day. Today Hero Honda has an assembly line of 9 different models of motorcycles available. It holds the record for most popular bike in the world by sales for Its Splendor model. Hero Honda Motors Limited was established in joint venture withHonda Motors of Japan in 1984, to manufacture motorcycles. It is currently the largest producer of Two Wheelers in the world. It sold 3 million bikes in the year 2005-2006.Recently it has also entered in scooter manufacturing, with its model PLEASURE mainlyaimed at girls. The Hero Group has done business differently right from the start and that

is what has helped them to achieve break-through in the competitive two-wheeler market.The Group's low key, but focused, style of management has earned the company plauditsamidst investors, employees, vendors and dealers, as also worldwide recognition.

The growth of the Group through the years has been influenced by a number of factors:

19

8/7/2019 Ankit Summer Training Report on Bajaj vs Hero Honda

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/ankit-summer-training-report-on-bajaj-vs-hero-honda 20/47

[ Just-in-Time ]

The Hero Group through the Hero Cycles Division was the first to introduce the conceptof just-in-time inventory. The Group boasts of superb operational efficiencies. Everyassembly line worker operates two machines simultaneously to save time and improve

 productivity. The fact that most of the machines are either developed or fabricated in-house, has resulted in low inventory levels. In Hero Cycles Limited, the just-in-timeinventory principle has been working since the beginning of production in the unit and isfunctional even till date.. This is the Japanese style of production and in India; Hero is  probably the only company to have mastered the art of the just-in-time inventory principle.

[ Ancillarisation ]

An integral part of the Group strategy of doing business differently was providingsupport to ancillary units. There are over 300 ancillary units today, whose production is

dedicated to Hero's requirements and also a large number of other vendors, which includesome of the better known companies in the automotive segment. Employee Policy:

Another Striking feature within the Hero Group is the commitment and dedication of itsworkers. There is no organized labor union and family members of employees find readyemployment within Hero. The philosophy with regard to labor management is "Hero isgrowing, grow with Hero." When it comes to workers' benefits, the Hero Group is knownfor providing facilities, further ahead of the industry norms. Long before other companiesdid so, Hero was giving its employees a uniform allowance, as well as House RentAllowance (HRA) and Leave Travel Allowance (LTA). Extra benefits took the form of medical check-ups, not just for workers, but also for the immediate family members.

[ Dealer Network ]

The relationship of Hero Group with their dealers is unique in its closeness. The dealersare considered a part of the Hero family. A nation-wide dealer network comprising of over 5,000 outlets, and have a formidable distribution system in place. Sales agents fromHero travels to all the corners of the country, visiting dealers and send back daily postcards with information on the stock position that day, turnover, fresh purchases,anticipated demand and also competitor action in the region. The manufacturing unitshave a separate department to handle dealer complaints and problems and the firstresponse is always given in 24 hours.

[ Financial Planning ]

The Hero Group benefits from the Group Chairman's financial acumen and his grasp ontechnology, manufacturing and marketing. Group Company, Hero Cycles Limited hasone of the highest labor productivity rates in the world. In Hero Honda Motors Limited,the focus is on financial and raw material management and a low employee turnover.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/ankit-summer-training-report-on-bajaj-vs-hero-honda 21/47

[ Quality ]

Quality at Hero is attained not just by modern plants and equipment and through latesttechnology, but by enforcing a strict discipline. At the Group factories, attaining qualitystandards is an everyday practice - a strictly pursued discipline. It comes from an

amalgamation of the latest technology with deep-rooted experience derived from nearlyfour decades of hard labor. It is an attitude that masters the challenge of growth andchange - change in consumers' perceptions about products and new aspirations arisingfrom a new generation of buyers.

Constant technology up gradation ensures that the Group stays in the global mainstreamand maintains its competitive edge. With each of its foreign collaborations, the Groupgoes onto strengthen its quality measures as per the book. The Group also employs theservices of independent experts from around the world to assist in new design and production processes.

[ Diversification ]

Throughout the years of enormous growth, the Group Chairman, Mr. Lall has activelylooked at diversification. A considerable level of backward integration in itsmanufacturing activities has been ample in the Group's growth and led to theestablishment of the Hero Cycles Cold Rolling Division, Munjal and Sunbeam Castings,Munjal Auto Components and Munjal Showa Limited amongst other component-manufacturing units.

Then there were the expansion into the automotive segment with the setting up of Majestic Auto Limited, where the first indigenously designed moped, Hero Majestic,

went into commercial production in 1978. Then came Hero Motors which introducedHero Puch, in collaboration with global technology leader Steyr Daimler Puch of Austria.Hero Honda Motors was established in 1984 to manufacture 100 cc motorcycles.

The Hero Group also took a venture into other segments like exports, financial services,information technology, which includes customer response services and softwaredevelopment. Further expansion is expected in the areas of Insurance andTelecommunication.

The Hero Group's phenomenal growth is the result of constant innovations, a close watchon costs and the dynamic leadership of the Group Chairman, characterized by a culture of 

entrepreneurship, of right attitudes and building stronger relationships with investors, partners, vendors and dealers and customers
