    INTRODUCTION

    Indian automobile industry is very fascinating. India has a very good history in

    the field of automobile especially in car segment. Before Indian independence,

    usually cars were imported from developed countries. It was a status symbol to

    have a car at that time. Only rich and royal families would afford to have one.

    Cars from reputed companies like ford, gm etc., made their presence felt on

    Indian roads.

    The first motorcar appeared in India in 1898. At that time, Bombay had the first

    taxicabs. In 1903, an American company began to operate a public taxi service

    with a fleet of 50 cars. In for manufacturing cars namely,

    - Hindustan Motors Limited, Calcutta

    - Premier Automobiles Limited, Bombay

    However, after the independence, self-reliance became the mantra. Depending

    on Foreign technology banned and import, substitution became the order of the

    day. In 1952, the tariff commission spelled out the future for auto industry.

    Companies like Ford and Gm that had assembly operation in India packed their

    Babbages home.

    The Indian passenger car industry was staid, low growth oriented market withvery few players until early 1980s. It sheltered existence due to various control

    and restrictions. The consequent lack of domestic competition meant that there

    were few changes made to the designs of the existing cars. For over two

    decades, the Indian customer had to choose from the Ambassador, the Fiat, the

    Standard or Dolphin. There was very little incentive to innovate or even

    plagiarize. Customer service and customer orientation was given a back seat.Least importance has been given to marketing strategies

    hatchback Ritz, A-Star, Swift, Wagon-R, Estillo and sedans DZire, SX4, in the

    'C' segment Maruti Eeco and Sports Utility vehicle Grand Vitara.

    It was the first company in India to mass-produce and sell more than a million

    cars. It is largely credited for having brought in an automobile revolution to

    India. It is the market leader in India, and on 17 September 2007, Maruti Udyog

    Limited was renamed as Maruti Suzuki India Limited. The company's

    headquarters are located in New Delhi. In February 2012, the company sold its

    10th million vehicle in India.

    Maruti Udyog Limited (MUL) was established in February 1981, though the

    actual production commenced in 1983 with the Maruti 800, based on the Suzuki

    Alto kei car which at the time was the only modern car available in India, its

    only competitors- the Hindustan Ambassador and Premier Padmini were both

    around 25 years out of date at that point. Through 2004, Maruti Suzuki has

    produced over 5 Million vehicles. Maruti Suzukis are sold in India and variousseveral other countries, depending upon export orders. Models similar to Maruti

    Suzukis (but not manufactured by Maruti Udyog) are sold by Suzuki Motor

    Corporation and manufactured in Pakistan and other South Asian countries.

    The mid 1981 incorporated as Maruti Udyog Limited saw a revolution in

    passenger car market when the government decided to issue licenses to allautomobile manufactures to produce allied vehicles as well.

    This move saw the entry of Maruti Udyog Limited, which launched Maruti 800.

    This model was considered a modern car with contemporary market leader and

    has retained a document presence in Indian market since then. The launch of

    Marutis models- primarily the 800-tripled the car sales from 63,500 in 1984 -

    1985 to 1,78,500 in 1989-1990. Car sales stood at 3,45,355 in 1995-1996.

    Marutis spectacular success however, did not mean that its competitors failed

    to respond to the challenge. Late 1980s and early 1990s at last saw the

    emergence of the marketing orientation. Passenger car manufactures tried to

    position themselves in various segments. Introduction of new models was done,

    mostly with foreign collaboration. For the first time, international car

    manufacturers began to evince keen interest in Indian car market. Early birds

    among them were Daimler-Benz and Daewoo. Other aspirants were GM, Ford,

    and Peugeot.

    Car Market Scenario

    When Maruti began operations in 1983, there were only two other car

    companies in India and the total size of the Indian passenger car market was a

    merely 40,000 units per year. From the start, Maruti caught the imagination of

    Indian car customers and launched four new models, including a hatchback, a

    mini multipurpose van, an entry sedan and a SUV, over the next decade. Each

    of these models was an instant draw with the Indian consumers.

    INTRODUCTION TO HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT

    Human Resource Management (HRM) can be viewed as a comparatively new

    approach to Personnel Management, which considers people as the key

    resource. It subscribes to the notion that it is important to communicate with

    employees, to involve them in what is going on and to foster their commitment

    and identification with the organisation. In addition a strategic approach to the

    acquisition, motivation of people is heavily emphasised.

    HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT

    Every business unit needs human resource (manpower) for the conduct of

    different business activities. In fact, no organization can exist or operate

    efficiently without the support of human resource.

    Organisations and individuals should develop and progress simultaneously for

    their survival and attainment of mutual goals. Modern management has to

    develop the organisation through human resource development. Employee

    training and development is an important sub-system of human resource

    development. Employee training and development is a specialised function and

    is one of the fundamental operative functions of human resources management.

    INTRODUCTION TO TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT

    William James of Harvard University estimated that employees could retain

    their jobs by working a mere 20-30 percent of their potential .His research led

    him to believe that if these same employees were properly motivated they

    could work at 80-90 percent of their capabilities .Behavioral science concepts

    like motivation and enhanced productivity could well be used for such

    improvements through the effective and efficient use of training and learning

    resources.

    TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENTis a subsystem of an organization. It

    ensures that randomness is reduced and learning or behavioral change takes

    place in structured format.

    Organisations and individuals should develop and progress simultaneously for

    their survival and attainment of mutual goals. Modern management has to

    develop the organisation through human resource development. Employee

    training and development is an important sub-system of human resource

    development. Employee training and development is a specialised function andis one of the fundamental operative functions of human resources management.

    Due to daily changing business environment, manufacturing process,

    technological advancement and rapid growth in the demand of the products and

    services etc, the workforce of any organization has to be very well equipped

    with the skills, ability, and talent required to cope up with the market

    competition.

    Now a days many organizations are conducting training programmed to

    improve the productivity of employees.

    MEANING OF TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT

    After an employee is selected ,placed and introduced ,he or she must be provide

    with training facilities .training is the act of increasing the knowledge and skill

    of an employee for doing a particular job .Training improves ,changes moulds

    the employees knowledge ,skill ,behaviour ,aptitude, and attitude towards the

    requirements of the job and organization.

    TRAINING

    The traditional approach and modern approach for Training and Development

    The traditional approach

    Most of the organizations before never used to believe in training. They were

    holding the traditional view that managers are born and not made .There were

    also some views that training is a very costly affair and not worth . But now thescenario seems to be changing.

    The modern approach

    The modern approach of training and development is that Indian Organizations

    have realized the importance of corporate training. Training is now considered

    as more of retention tool than a cost. The training system in Indian Industry has

    been changed to create a smarter workforce and yield the best results.

    Training is a short term educational process and utilising a systematic and

    organised procedure by which employees learn technical knowledge and skills

    for a definite purpose.

    Training is a long term investment in human resource using the equation

    Performance = ability + motivation

    Training can have an impact on both these factors .It can heighten the skills and

    abilities of the employees and their motivation by increasing their sense of

    commitment and encouraging them to develop and use new skills .It is a

    powerful tool that can have a major impact on both employee productivity and

    morale, if properly used.

    Dale S. Beach defines training as the organised procedure by which people

    learn knowledge and attain skills for a definite purpose."

    It is a learning process that involves the acquisition of knowledge, sharpening ofskills, concepts, rules, or changing of attitudes and behaviours to enhance

    the performance of employees.

    Training is activity leading to skilled behaviour.

    Its not what you want in life,but it knows how to reach it.

    Its not where you want to go, but it knows how to get there.

    Its not how high you want to rise, but it knows how to take off.

    It may not be quite the outcome you were aiming for, but it will be

    an outcome.

    Its not what you dream of doing, but its having the knowledge to do it

    It's not a set of goals, but its more like a vision

    Its not the goal you set, but its what you need to achieve it

    Trainingis about knowing where you stand (no matter how good or bad

    the current situation looks) at present, and where you will be after some

    point of time.

    Why there is a need for TRAINIG AND DEVOLOPMENT in any

    Organization:-

    Organization viability and the transformation process

    The primary concern of an Organization is its viability and hence its efficiency

    .There is a continuous environmental pressure for efficiency ,and if anOrganization does not response to this pressure ,it may find itself rapidly losing

    whatever share of market it has .Employee ,training therefore imparts specific

    skills and knowledge to employees in order that they contribute to the

    Organizations efficiency ,and be able to cope with the pressures of the

    changing environment .

    Technological advancesThere has been tremendous development in industrial technology.

    Mechanization and automation of the plant is necessary for the organizations

    survival; hence, it has to train its employees for more skilled positions. New

    skills are required to operate new machinery, or familiarity with new processes

    and production techniques has to be introduced.

    Organizational ComplexityWith increasing mechanization, automation and development in

    technology,many organizations have emerged as complex organizations that

    produce a wide range of products or offer a wide range of services. This had

    led to complex problems of coordination and integration of activities.

    Eventually the need for training and retraining is felt at the all levels in

    such organizations, from shop floor to top executives

    Human Relations

    The growing complexity of organizations has led to various human problems,

    like alienation, inter-personal and inter-group problems. Hence, training

    in human relations is becoming extremely important for tackling these

    problems. Due to its great relevance in the current automated, mechanized and

    extremely competitive business environment, where skills are becoming

    obsolete faster than ever, we have chosen to study in detail the training and

    development needs of employees.
