Dash for the kids, and the higher priced Regalia and Nebula to the premium segment customer.

million watches per annum. The rural segment is the diverse market in the present scenario. The
key success story of Titan is capturing the rural market on a large scale. The range costs is

sold mainly in small-town in India.

Introduction
When we talk about the wristwatch brand, remember the only Indian wristwatch market were
so shabby, one more ordinary than other and when the craze for imported watch was not
implemented. That was before the time of titan, a name which brought the revolution in the
Indian wristwatch market.
Titan wristwatch brand is the part of titan industry, which was launched in 1987 by TATA group.
TATA group had indentified the watch category as a potential consumer market for the TATAs to
enter.
Xerxes Desai, a TATA veteran and the MD of TATA Press was elected to that business.
By offering quality products and classic design with advanced technology to the consumers,
Titan made a success story. Outstanding services, wide variety of models and effective marketing
helped Titan to capture the market in its born stage.

The reason behind the success of Titan watches was their research on the Indian consumer
psychological mind. The company today has a model for every price segment and every market,
urban and rural, regional and international.
Titan brought quartz technology first in the Indian market and acquired first place by displacing
HMT into second place, who offers mechanically driven wristwatch.

It also brought a sense of style and design, which is only available in the West or in Japan at that
point of time.

Technological forces
Impact of Technology
Changing in technology always play a great role in the target market. Titan
decided to manufacture only QUERTZ (Analog and digital) and not
mechanical and they would start plant to manufacture watches in wide
variety in design and prices.
Titan changes the technology in that ways which help in enhance the quality
and the features to increase buyers value. Titan gets advantages in the
target market through innovative technology.
As there is too much competition, if Titan not accept the changes in technology then they cant
sustain in the market. In premium segment, competitor will capture whole market by improve
technology. And in the mid-price segment, other companies will give a tough competition to
titan.

Technological changes
The new marketing innovation can bring a drastically changes in the marketing activities of the
company. The new innovations which can differentiate the company from the competitor are

purpose of their business. It uses its resources in the best possible way. They also takes some
reasonably steps to improve the quality of life of the people of the areas in which they operates.

In India 70% of the sales in wristwatches come from the lower segment. So, Titan capture the
market by pricing the Sonata at Rs. 350 onwards. It consist of Tata guarantee. Titan prices its
world watches which are compared equal to an international competitor like Calvin Klein. Here a
ICBM-School of Business Excellence

Page 15

TITAN INDUSTRIES-WATCHES
customer pays about 4 times a value of the world watch hence penetrating the market with low
prices to international players to gain market share.
In the Indian watch industry there is no one offering pure gold watches, watches in pair,
Jewellery watches. This concept though exists with foreign competition has just come to India.
TITAN offers these products with the Indian touch in its designs, the products, and the looks.
Hence it is able to skim the market with certain products in these ranges.

III. SWOT Analysis


A. Strength:
1. Style: Titan first introduced the style concept in India and projected the watch as a
fashion accessory. Now a days style is a very much evident factor among the youth. And
there is a craze for stylish wristwatch. So, Titan makes the peoples life more glorious by
making stylish wristwatch.
2. Models: As Titan offers the best and the biggest range to customer to choose the watch
of their choice with an affordable price.
It offers about 14 different names with about 1000plus different varieties with a watch for
literally everyone.
3. Exclusive products: Today Titan holds the pride for say that its products both within the
country and internationally running in battle position. Its EDGE the slimmest watch in
the world position.
Other than these there have few more strength like4. Contribution of owned brands and retail. The profit is accounted by being in the
retail space which is booming.
5. Watches are available with popular functions like dates, multifunction and
chronographic.
6. Guarantee/warranty
ICBM-School of Business Excellence

TITAN INDUSTRIES-WATCHES
C. Weaknesses
1. Pricing: the average price of Titan in mid-price segment is very high than the other
competitor. Average price for Titan is Rs.1100 while the price for HMT is Rs.550. In the
mid-price segment the company is not performing up to the mark due to the lack of
choice of consumers.
2. Market share: As the average price of Titan wristwatch is far more than the other
competitor, Titan has less market share. The market is more demonstrate by middle class
people and for them Titan is quite costly. Among 75% market share in mid-segment.
Titan market share is between 18-20% which is far lower than HMT and Maxima.
3. Globalized: As the company is Indian based which leads it to the strength, where as it is
the weakness also because the company not sufficiently globalized.

D. Opportunities
1. Seasonality: At the time of festival, like Diwali Titan promotes Nebula, Bandhan
because there is demand for the products.
- Gold watches and pairs are the like as a wedding occasion.
-The fast track brand is promoted in month of June-August when schools and
colleges re-open.
2. Gifting concept: Titan started as a brand which was associated with gifting and relation.
The fight concept sells well for people have come to associate Titan with lovecare and
makes emotion run high.
3. Exchanging offer: The Titan stores offer exchange offer of any old watch, of any make,
in any condition functional or otherwise and receive a flat discount of 25% on their
purchase of a brand new, stylish and technologically advanced watch from Titan.

D. Threats

ICBM-School of Business Excellence

Page 17

TITAN INDUSTRIES-WATCHES
1. Competitor: As we know that lots of Foreign brands are entering in our country with
their branded watches. As the removal of quantitative restrictions on import watches leads to
threat to titan.
2. Premium segment: As in premium segment Titan is getting threats from reputed
international brand such as Espirit, Swatch and Citizen.
3. Mobile: Now a days people can get the time and the other feature in mobile phone. So,
the need of wristwatch is in decreasing trend. People can talk and see the time in a cell phone and
some people think that there is no need of wristwatch.

IV. Marketing Objectives:


Titan industries in watch holds 70% in Domestic level and 60% in Share in organized sector
market.
Companies the marketing objectives is to increase in market share by 5% .
Before implementing the of marketing strategies we must have to focus on certain things ,which
include the BCG Matrix representation.

which was Rs 7,25.11. In all the income the Titan industry had contributed Rs.3,03.45 crore.

BCG matrix helps us to understand the watches playing a important role for Titan industries.
Here we are considering the different watches as in different segment according to its
performance as well as the market share.

? (INFINITY):
As the Titan launched a 4 feet tall watch Replica created by acclaimed sculptor Artist Mr.Arun

TITAN INDUSTRIES-WATCHES
Earlier they had launched Heritage collection about a year back based on beautiful monument of
India including The Taj-Mahal, Lakshmi Vials Place, Jharokha, Konark ,Ajanta. As it is the new
collection it requires more investment for Tiatn-wwf as the market growth is also high there.
It include the watches namely REGALIA, EDGE and NEBULA.

Cash Cow:
It basically include the watches Fast Track, Exacta, pectra for the titan. As in this segment these
watches are playing important role so it require certain amount of money which will help it out
to sustain into the market as well help in liquidity.

Marketing Mix:

PRICE
PRODUCT
PROMOTION
PLACE

Price:
As achieve our marketing our marketing objectives, we can do some change in the pricing .
The main consideration will be in changing price are followings.
A. Survival:
In case of some of the watches titan prices them according to the features .The Exacta is a simple
steel watch priced at Rs.600-1,100. As the company also deals with Spectra, Raga through
pricing policy.
B. Market share:
ICBM-School of Business Excellence

Page 21

TITAN INDUSTRIES-WATCHES
As we know that 70% of sales in watches come from the lower segment, therefore by pricing
Sonata at 350 onwards with guarantee.
Titan prices its world watches which compared equal to an international players like Calvin
Klien where a customer pays 4 times as value of the world watch, therefore market with low
prices to international players to gain market share.
C. Market Skimming: In Indian watch industry there is no one offering pure gold watches,
watches in pair, jewellery watches. Here Titan offers there product with the Indian touch in its
design, the product, the love.

Product:
Quality and leadership are the two main terms for the Titan. As to achieve the marketing
objectives this aspects should also be considered.
A. Product line: To increase the sales, the difference in the prices of the watches are justified by
the features.
B. Product pyramid: Portfolio of Titans product is of 3 distinct price-range that can be defined
in general, as Popular, Mid, and Premium. At the popular segment, the emphasis is on in volumes
but not in margins. At the premium segment, the emphasis is on profits and image but not in
volumes. Obviously, company giving more emphasis at the top of the pyramid as profits at the
top of the pyramid is very high. This pyramid guided the strategy of Titan.
C. Product strategy: Titan was first focused only on the premium segment of the watch market.
As per the product strategy they took, Titan moved in to the mass market for watches. To widen
base, Titan created new segments and increasingly focusing on segments individually. In the past
few years Titan has took a lot of initiatives to focused on specific segments.
D. Product Quality: Quality and leadership are synonymous to Titan. It seek to achieve both
through
their
value
for
products

TITAN INDUSTRIES-WATCHES
Promotional pricing:
A. Marketing pricing: As by opening new shops such as the world of Titan buy
directly from the dealer and hence the element of middleman is not there.
Here the retailer in this category buys watches for 17-18% lesser than MRP and hence they are
able to get the 17% profit margin on sales.
It is managing to successfully convince to the customer of the perceived value of WORLD
WATCH using hoarding all around the city, increasing buyer image, trust worthiness,
innovation, differentiation, value for the product.
Price discount and allowances: Every year Titan comes with a price discount sale on the MRP
of the watches. The allowances varies from one segment to another.
B. Creative advertising: Titan introduces a contest on cartoon network in india.com
which invites children to use creativity and design watch.
The prize winning design was launched as a new watch in summer 2002 collection .
Type of advertising: Titan believes in making its ads clean, well made, touch on emotional
chord. As the company is using celebrities or superstars that is Amir Khan for the Titan watches.
As here we can say that a female actress would be more effective for the promotional purpose. It
can be Katrina Kaif, as now she is one of the popular actress in Bollywood.
C. Promotion on occasion: Titan is one of the company which formally believes in the
policy of promotion the product based on the occasions.

Place:
Keeping in mind about the young trendy and fashionable consumers, Titan distribute its product
and set up world of titan in different region. The consumers life style in India, especially in
urban area(because the turnover in urban area is 210 million, while the turnover in rural area is
90 million) plays a significant role in the success of Titan.

A.Time Zone: Titan Industries brings together the countrys leading watch brands under one
roof, providing the customer with variety in brands, looks and price ranges and also efficient
after-sales service. These 1142 Time Zones located across 89 towns which offer its customer the
complete watch shopping experience.
B.Value Mart: These outlets sell surplus stocks of Titan watches at reduced prices. By doing
these it offering fabulous value for money with the same warranty as a regular full-priced watch
enjoy. However these shops would not be placed in the main locations and not working as a
normal shops. This is to make the customer go to the shop rather than the shop calling the
customer and hence the locations are not very suitable for shopping.
C.Sonata Stores: Sonata stores is also an Authorized Service Centre for Sonata & Titan brands.
Sonata store meet the large scale demand for the watch and also to attract customers in more.
These shops had full stocks of the watch in demand whereas the others could afford to maintain
only limited stock.
