OVERVIEW
Maruti Suzuki India Limited is a publicly listed automaker in India. It is a leading

four-wheeler automobile manufacturer in South Asia. Suzuki Motor Corporation of Japan
holds a majority stake in the company. 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
was renamed Maruti Suzuki India Limited. The company headquarter is in Gurgaon,
Haryana (near Delhi).
Profile
Maruti Suzuki is one of India's leading automobile manufacturers and the market
leader in the car segment, both in terms of volume of vehicles sold and revenue earned. Until
recently, 18.28% of the company was owned by the Indian government, and 54.2% by
Suzuki of Japan. The Indian government held an initial public offering of 25% of the
company in June 2003. As of May 10, 2007, Govt. of India sold its complete share to Indian
financial institutions. With this, Govt. of India no longer has stake in Maruti Udyog.
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Ambassador and Premier Padmini were both around 25 years out of date at that point.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 has produced over 5 Million vehicles. Marutis are sold in India and
various several other countries, depending upon export orders. Cars similar to Marutis (but
not manufactured by Maruti Udyog) are sold by Suzuki and manufactured in Pakistan and
other South Asian countries.
The company annually exports more than 50,000 cars and has an extremely large
domestic market in India selling over 730,000 cars annually. Maruti 800, till 2004, was the
India's largest selling compact car ever since it was launched in 1983. More than a million
units of this car have been sold worldwide so far. Currently, Maruti Alto tops the sales charts
and Maruti Swift is the largest selling in A2 segment.
More than half the cars sold in India are Maruti cars. The company is a subsidiary of
Suzuki Motor Corporation, Japan, which owns 54.2 per cent of Maruti. The rest is owned by
the public and financial institutions. It is listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange and National
Stock Exchange in India.

Maruti Suzuki was born as a government company, with Suzuki as a minor partner to
make a people's car for middle class India. Over the years, the product range has widened,
ownership has changed hands and the customer has evolved. What remains unchanged, then
and now, is Maruti’s mission to motorise India.
Partner for the Joint venture
Pressure started mounting on Indira and Sanjay Gandhi to share the details of the
progress on the Maruti Project. Since country's resources were made available by mother to
her son's pet project. A delegation of Indian technocrats was assigned to hunt a collaborator
for the project. Initial rounds of discussion were held with the giants of the automobile
industry in Japan including Toyota, Nissan and Honda. Suzuki Motor Corporation was at
that time a small player in the four wheeler automobile sector and had major share in the two
wheeler segment. Suzuki's bid was considered negligible.
Industrial relations
For most of its history, Maruti Udyog had relatively few problems with its labour
force. Its emphasis of a Japanese work culture and the modern manufacturing process, first
instituted in Japan in the 1970s, was accepted by the workforce of the company without any
difficulty.
Authorized service stations
Maruti is one of the companies in India which has unparalleled service network. To
ensure the vehicles sold by them are serviced properly, Maruti has 2628 listed Authorized
service stations and 30 Express Service Stations on 30 highways across India.
Service is a major revenue generator of the company. Most of the service stations are
managed on franchise basis, where Maruti trains the local staff. Other automobile companies
have not been able to match this benchmark set by Maruti. The Express Service stations help
many stranded vehicles on the highways by sending across their repair man to the vehicle.
Maruti insurance
Launched in 2002 Maruti provides vehicle insurance to its customers with the help of the
National Insurance Company, Bajaj Allianz, New India Assurance and Royal Sundaram. The
service was set up the company with the inception of two subsidiaries Maruti Insurance
Distributors Services Pvt. Ltd and Maruti Insurance Brokers Pvt. Limited
This service started as a benefit or value addition to customers and was able to ramp
up easily. By December 2005 they were able to sell more than two million insurance policies
since its inception.

Maruti Finance
To promote its bottom line growth, Maruti launched Maruti Finance in January 2002.
Prior to the start of this service Maruti had started two joint ventures Citicorp Maruti and
Maruti Countrywide with Citi Group and GE Countrywide respectively to assist its client in
securing loan.[15] Maruti tied up with ABN Amro Bank, HDFC Bank, ICICI Limited, Kotak
Mahindra, Standard Chartered Bank, and Sundaram to start this venture including its
strategic partners in car finance. Again the company entered into a strategic partnership with
SBI in March 2003[16] Since March 2003, Maruti has sold over 12,000 vehicles through SBI-
Maruti Finance. SBI-Maruti Finance is currently available in 166 cities across India
Maruti Driving School
As part of its corporate social responsibility Maruti Udyog launched the Maruti
Driving School in Delhi. Later the services were extended to other cities of India as well.
These schools are modelled on international standards, where learners go through classroom
and practical sessions. Many international practices like road behaviour and attitudes are also
taught in these schools. Before driving actual vehicles participants are trained on simulators.
Exports
Maruti Suzuki has helped India emerge as the fourth largest exporter of automobiles
in Asia. Shown here is Maruti Gypsy in Malta.
Maruti Exports Limited is the subsidiary of Maruti Udyog Limited with its major
focus on exports and it does not operate in the domestic Indian market. The first commercial
consignment of 480 cars were sent to Hungary. By sending a consignment of 571 cars to the
same country Maruti crossed the benchmark of 300,000 cars. Since its inception export was
one of the aspects government was keen to encourage. Every political party expected Maruti
to earn foreign currency.

PRICE:
Maruti is expected to take Hyundai heads on with the pricing of their upcoming
Maruti Suzuki Swift car. After launching cars for the masses since so many years, India’s
largest automobile manufacturer is now targeting the premium segment with their latest
model from the Suzuki’s stable. The analysts predict the pricing of this premiumhatchback to
start from Rs. 4 lakh.This price range would practically rip apart Hyundai’s offering in Getz,
which is priced at a much higher tag of Rs. 4.5 lakh. Both the companies are known for their
value based offerings and Maruti with their extensive service network and brand reputation
for making reliable cars should get the customer’s nod over their competition.The official
pricing however is still not out. However, the company is said to be studying the prospects of
launching the base model at the 4-lakh price tag. There is another advantage in doing so
considering in the capital city of Delhi NCR road tax on the sub 4 lakh priced cars is
comparatively lower at 2%. Cars at a price higher than 4 lakh have to pay a 4% road
tax.Delhi NCR is one of the major targeted markets and it might get the benefit of this
policy. And if they indeed do take the chance of pricing Suzuki Swift at a considerable lower
price than Hyundai Getz, they would quite likely force the competition to rethink their
strategy.
PROMOTION:
When Maruti Udyog launched the Swift in May last year, the automotive industry
was agog with expectation that the car had the makings of a real winner. Three versions were
launched with the base variant carrying a retail tag of Rs 3.85 lakh, ex-showroom, New
Delhi, and this aggressive pricing only reinforced this feeling. A year later, the company
says the Swift is now the most-sold car in the first year of any car in the history of the Indian
automobile industry, having totted up sales of 61,200 units.

This is higher than what Maruti had initially planned to sell. The car recorded an
estimated 4,000 bookings at the time of its launch, and the initial output of 200 units a day
on a two-shift basis, wasn’t enough to cope with demand.
In October, the company increased capacity for the Swift which helped cut down on
the waiting time from an estimated three months.
PLACE :
The car manufacturing company, called Maruti Suzuki Automobiles India Limited, is
a joint venture between Maruti Udyog and Suzuki
Motor Corporation holding a 70 per cent and 30 per cent stake respectively. The
Rs1,524.2 crore plant has a capacity to roll out 1 lakh cars per year with a capacity to scale
up to 2.5 lakh units per annum. The car manufacturing plant will begin commercial
production by the end of 2006.The engine and the transmission plant has owned by Suzuki
Powertrain India Limited in which Suzuki Motor Corporation would hold 51 per cent stake
and Maruti Udyog holding the balance. The ultimate total plant capacity is three lakh diesel
engines. However, the initial production is 1 lakh diesel engines, 20,000 petrol engines and
1.4 lakh transmission assemblies.

in over 150 variants.
 The turnover last year was USD 3.37 Bn employing more than 6700 employees.

 Where the company has 3 plants in Gurgaon facility, 4th plant was added with
the capacity of 100000 Cars
 Hundred thousand at Manesar in 2006-07.
The market share of Maruthi Suzuki had decreased gradually from the year 2001-
2008 due to its rigid competitors HYUNDAI and TATA motors etc.
BRAND HIERARCHY OF THE COMPANY:
The Product Line:

The Indian passenger car market was divided into various segments and sub-
segments on the basis of price, size (i.e. length of the model and its weight) and other factors
(including engine capacity). MUL had a presence in all the segments and sub-segments.
COMPETITORS :
Major Competitors:

M&M PAL HYUNDAI
FORD MISTSUBUSHI TOYOTA
HIND MOTORS GM TATA MOTORS
Since 1985, Maruti Udyog Limited (MUL) has been the market leader in the
passenger car industry in India. Its flagship product - M800 had the distinction of being the
largest selling car model in India since its launch in December 1983.Positioned as people's
car, M800 ruled the Indian passenger car market and remained unchallenged ever since it
occupied the top slot, five months after its introduction In March 2003, MUL sold 20,687

units of M800, the highest ever sales by any single model in a month. It was also the highest
sales since M800 debuted, surpassing its previous monthly high of 18,735 units in August
1999
For the first few months of 2004, M800 performed well, selling 15,301 units in
January, 13,518 units in February and 15,540 in March. But gradually Alto, another MUL
product, began eating into M800's share. Alto reported In April, its sales increased to 9,350
units and in May 2004, Alto took over M800's position as the largest selling car with sale of
10,373 units, slightly over M800's sales of 10,016 units.
Analysts felt that Alto had taken the top spot because of its price reduction in
September 2003 by Rs. 23,000 followed by the launch of the non-AC Alto for Rs. 0.23 mn in
the first week of April 2004. On reducing the gap between its bread and butter model M800
and its compact car Alto, MUL said it had "long term" plans for M800.
Commenting on Alto's pricing strategy, Jagdish AKhattar (Khattar), managing

director of MUL, said, "The new price positioning of the Alto would cannibalize existing A1
segment product the M800 which is also considered an old model. But, the cannibalization
will remain within the Maruti family and the bigger numbers will help Maruti depreciate
Alto faster. Net M800 sales may be less but we would be pushing more Alto and the more
we sell the Alto the faster it will depreciate."
Though industry analysts said this move would boost MUL's profits, they also
expressed their views that MUL's long-term plan might be to discontinue M800 and replace
the entry segment with Alto. However, Khattar clarified that MUL's pricing strategy was not
meant to replace M800 with Alto. He said, "Now, we have two cars in entry-level. Maruti
800 is still a dream of Indians, how can I replace it?"
Current and Future Market Strategies:
Design small cars suitable for the Indian conditions as a strategy to beat the stiff
competition with development capabilities and internal resources to finance its expansion,
thereby cushioning itself Company’s plan to stay away from the ultra low-cost segment.

Maruti Suzuki is looking to make India an exclusive base to manufacture small cars
The Pricing Strategy :
Due to the fierce competition in the Indian passenger car industry, price emerged as
an important factor affecting the purchasing decisions of customers. Since it had been in the
industry for more than two decades, and as a market leader, MUL adopted aggressive pricing
strategies.
The company had products at various price points (Refer Exhibit IV for a
comprehensive list of MUL's products, their variants and prices). In the early 2000s, when
the passenger car industry was witnessing stagnation, MUL slashed the prices of its various
models, to revive the industry.
KEY STRATEGIC INITIATIVES BY MARUTI
Turnaround Strategies Maruti Followed :
Maruti was the undisputed leader in the automobile utility-car segment sector,
controlling about 84% of the market till 1998. With increasing competition from local
players like Telco, Hindustan Motors, Mahindra & Mahindra and foreign players like
Daewoo, PAL, Toyota, Ford, Mitsubishi, GM, the whole auto industry structure in India has
changed in the last seven years and resulted in the declining profits and market share for
Maruti. At the same time the Indian government permitted foreign car producers to invest in
the automobile sector and hold majority stakes.
OFFERING ONE STOP SHOP TO CUSTOMERS:
Maruti has successfully developed different revenue streams without making huge
investments in the form of MDS, N2N, Maruti Insurance and Maruti Finance. These help
them in making the customer experience hassle free and helps building customer satisfaction.
Maruti Finance: In a market where more than 80% of cars are financed, Maruti has
strategically entered into this and has successfully created a revenue stream for Maruti. This
has been found to be a major driver in converting a Maruti car sale in certain cases. Finance
is one of the major decision drivers in car purchase. Maruti has tied up with 8 finance
companies to form a consortium. This consortium comprises Citicorp Maruti, Maruti
Countrywide, ICICI Bank, HDFC Bank, Kotak Mahindra, Sundaram Finance, Bank of
Punjab and IndusInd Bank Ltd.( erstwhile-Ashok Leyland Finance).
Maruti Insurance :
Insurance being a major concern of car owners. Maruti has brought all car insurance
needs under one roof. Maruti has tied up with National Insurance Company, Bajaj Allianz,
New India Assurance and Royal Sundaram to bring this service for its customers. From

identifying the most suitable car coverage to virtually hassle-free claim assistance it's your
dealer who takes care of everything. Maruti Insurance is a hassle-free way for customers to
have their cars repaired and claims processed at any Maruti dealer workshop in India.
TRUE VALUE :
Another significant development is MUL's entry into the used car market in 2001,
allowing customers to bring their vehicle to a 'Maruti True Value' outlet and exchange it for
a new car, by paying the difference. They are offered loyalty discounts in return.This helps
them retain the customer. With Maruti True Value customer has a trusted name to entrust in
a highly unorganized market and where cheating is rampant and the biggest concern in
biggest driver of sale is trust.
REPOSITIONING OF MARUTI PRODUCTS :
Whenever a brand has grown old or its sales start dipping Maruti 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 Maruti.
CUSTOMER CENTRIC APPROACH:
Maruti’s customer centricity is very much exemplified by the five times consecutive
wins at J D Power CSI Awards. Focus on customer satisfaction is what Maruti lives with.
Maruti has successfully shed off the public- sector laid back attitude image and has
inculcated the customer-friendly approach in its organization culture. The customer centric
attitude is imbibed in its employees. Maruti dealers and employees are answerable to even a
single customer complain. There are instances of cancellation of dealerships based on
customer feedback.
KEY SUCCESS FACTORS :
The Quality Advantage :
Maruti 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.
A Buying Experience Like No Other:

Maruti 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.
Quality Service Across 1036 Cities :
In the J.D. Power CSI Study 2004, Maruti 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.
One Stop Shop :
At Maruti Suzuki, customers will find all car related needs met under one roof.
Whether it is easy finance, insurance, fleet management services, exchange- Maruti Suzuki is
set to provide a single-window solution for all car related needs.
The Low Cost Maintenance Advantage :
The acquisition cost is unfortunately not the only cost customers face when buying a
car. Although a car may be affordable to buy, it may not necessarily be affordable to
maintain, as some of its regularly used spare parts may be priced quite steeply. Not so in the
case of a Maruti Suzuki. It is in the economy segment that the affordability of spares is most
competitive, and it is here where Maruti Suzuki shines.
Lowest Cost of Ownership :
The highest satisfaction ratings with regard to cost of ownership among all models
are all Maruti Suzuki vehicles: Zen, Wagon R, Esteem, Maruti 800, Alto and Omni.
Technological Advantage :
It has introduced the superior 16 * 4 Hypertech engines across the entire Maruti
Suzuki range. This new technology harnesses the power of a brainy 16-bit computer to a
fuel-efficient 4-valve engine to create optimum engine delivery. This means every Maruti
Suzuki owner gets the ideal combination of power and performance from his car.

RATIO ANALYSIS
Meaning of Ratio Analysis:
Ratio Analysis can be defined as the study and interpretation of relationships between
various financial variables, by investors or lenders. It is a quantitative investment technique
used for comparing a company's financial performance to the market in general. A change in
these ratios helps to bring about a change in the way a company works. It helps to identify
areas where the management needs to change.
Steps in Ratio Analysis:

The firs task of the financial analyst is to select the information relevant to the
decision under consideration from the statements and calculates appropriate ratios.
The second step is to compare the calculated ratio with the ratios of the same firm
relating to past or with the industry ratios. This step facilitates in assessing success or failure
of the firm.
The third step involves interpretation, drawing of inferences and report-writing.
Conclusions are drawn after comparison in the shape of report or recommended course of
action.
Importance:
Ratios are useful for the following reasons:
• The ratios can be used by financial managers for future financial planning. Ratios
calculated for a number of years work as a guide for the future.
• Ratios are useful in co-ordination which is very needed in business. The efficiency
and weakness of an enterprise if communicated properly will establish a better co-
ordination among areas of appreciation and control.
