    An opportunity to share in the success of the business

    HRM in a Global Village

    HRM functions are more complex when employees are located around the world.

    Consideration must be given to such things as foreign language training,

    relocation and orientation processes, etc.,

    HRM also involves considering the needs of employees families when they are

    sent overseas.

    HR and Corporate Ethics

    HRM must:

    Make sure employees know about corporate ethics policies

    INDUSTRY PROFILE

    The Indian Starting, Lighting & Ignition (SLI) Lead Acid Battery Industry has

    seen tremendous changes in the last 2 to 3 years in the passenger cars, utility vehicles,

    light and heavy commercial vehicle segment with some commendable and bold steps

    being taken by some of the leading manufactures trying to alter the perception of he

    battery as a commodity to the batter as a brand. Factors driving this change could include

    the sluggishness of the Indian auto industry over the last 2 to 3 years, the entry of new

    battery manufacturers into the market and the increased knowledge base among the users.

    This revolution is led by Amara Raja Batteries Ltd., a relatively new entrant to the

    automotive battery segment which has a Joint Venture (JV) with the leader in the

    automotive battery industry, i.e., Johnson Controls Inc. USA. Interestingly, the lead taken

    by this relatively unknown company of the industry has been lapped by all so as to

    capture a sizable share of the lucrative replacement Market due to the margins and the

    visibility of the brand.

    Historically, the Indian automotive battery Market was original equipment (OE)

    driven by one dominant player, i.e., Exide Industries Ltd., in the organized segment

    followed by many manufacturers from the unorganized segment especially in the light

    and heavy commercial vehicle segment. Exide at a point of time controlled nearly 100

    percent of the Indian auto OE market and was the biggest name in the Indian automotive

    battery industry.

  • 7/31/2019 Jilan Project

    16/76

    16

    All this was changed in the late 1990s with the entry of battery manufacturers like

    Amara Raja Batteries Ltd. (ARBL)(JV with Johnson Controls Inc. USA) and Tudor India

    Ltd. (the Indian arm of Exide Technologies). Both entered the market with

    technologically advanced products and ARBL became the first company to launch the

    Zero Maintenance Free Batteries for the automotive segment.

    ARBL completely repositioned the product with innovative marketing and

    distribution strategies that have taken the industry by storm and are credited with creating

    a separate category for the product. This initiative of educating the consumer was quickly

    grasped by the other manufactures and a very aggressive marketing program was

    unleashed. This move saw the otherwise dull industry flush with a lot of acion and

    enthusiasm that generated a lot of interest among the consumers and the dealer distributor

    network which is an important link in the chain. Today, the battery is being spoken of in

    the industry in the same breath as the passenger car which exhibits the visibility and

    awareness that the strategy has created.

    Industry Overview

    The total Indian storage battery market is approximately estimated at US$ 500

    Million with the automotive battery segment contributing 60 to 65 percent of the overall

    market value. In terms of volumes, the overall comprising of automotive batteries could

    be around 6.3 million units with the OE segment comprising around 1.2 to 1.3 million

    units per annum, according to an interview with the Executive Vice President of ARBL

    that was published on the website chennaibest.com

    17/76

    This being the case, the aftermarket is definitely with its sheer size and is

    lucrative due to better price and credit realization the late 1990s also saw a surge in the

    sales of the passenger car segment for around 2 years due to certain factors like the

    software boom, lowering of interest rates, etc.- which increased the overall sales of

    batteries. The automotive sector did not see any significant growth during the early part

    of the new millennium and is slowly showing signs of growth during this financial year.

    This factor also adds to the demand in the aftermarket as more number of cars were sold

    around 2 to 3 years back which is generally the life of a lead acid battery. The

    replacement automotive battery market is expected to grow at a healthy rate in the

    coming years.

    The SLI market in the Indian subcontinent is a highly fragmented industry with a

    few manufacturers in the organized segment and a lot many belonging to the tier 2/ tier 3

    categories which have a regional presence and thrive especially among the semi rural

    areas. These companies mainly cater to the replacement market of tractors/ farm

    equipment and heavy commercial vehicle segments which is a piece sensitive categories

    could be as high as 50 to 55 percent of the replacement market which is a significant

    share in volume terms. Also, this is a high growth market as the batteries and the vehicles

    generally will be abused and the rate of replacement in this category is generally high

    compared to passenger car segments.

    Role of Technology

    With the advent technologies, the consumer is getting the best of both worlds a

    superior product at an affordable price. ARBL sells its automotive battery under the

    brand name Araon which is the countrys first Zero Maintenance Free Automotive

    battery while the competitors has only maintenance free batteries that needed topping up

    of distilled water. Today, all the leading m manufacturers are also offering a similar

    product with focus shifting towards offering a technologically superior product. Amaron

    was also the first to talk about what goes into making a great product. It spoke of having

    silver inside which is used as an alloy mix that actually increases the battery life this was

    the attempt by any batter manufacturer to educate the consumers.

    Fudy Duddy Category to Creative Advertisement of the year

    The interest level shown by any car owner to a battery revolves around only when

    the car fails to start. Amaron therefore realized the need to make the consumer think

    about automotive batteries, because thinking before a purchase will definitely lead to a

    comparison among the brands available in the market.

    Amaron thus went ahead with its Chicken Led media campaign that created a

    storm in the advertising industry and made people look to this relatively new player in the

    battery industry. Over the years, the creative bent of al its campaigns starting from the

    media blitz, to below-line campaigns have been towards educating the consumer about a

    battery.

  • 7/31/2019 Jilan Project

    19/76

    19

    The lead shown by ARBL was quickly followed by the others, with Exide

    Industries sponsoring a cricket series in India for the first time with the campaign India

    moves on Exide becoming a major success.

    All this action in the automotive battery industry did not go unnoticed. In

    automotive battery manufacturer (Amaron) for the first was in the same league as mega

    ad spender like Coca Cola. Times of India, and others and won the Creative Advertiser of

    the year, which was a shot in the arm for the entire automotive battery industry.

    Distribution

    For the success of any aftermarket product, availability of the same is as

    important as the product quality and competitive pricing which go a long way in

    increasing the visibility and creating a network across markets. Here again, the leading

    automotive battery manufacturers became aggressive in extending their reach to the

    nooks and corners of the country and also moved away from the traditional distribution

    network and instead appointed dealers and distributors who were the first timers to the

    battery business like service outlets of some of the automobile majors like Maruti,

    Hyundai, Telco, Ashok Leyland, Hindustan Motors etc, roadside mechanics and lube

    shops etc., which went a long way in increasing the reach and visibility.

    There has been certain uniqueness that has been brought into the business by

    establishing exclusive outlets with some flashy names like Pitstops and Terminals

    which was never seen earlier in this industry. All this, resulted in taking the smaller /

    regional manufacturers head on and helped in building better recall and awareness among

    the end users.

  • 7/31/2019 Jilan Project

    20/76

    Warranty Support

    The consumer has always been familiar with the usual 12 month warranty on the

    automotive batteries, extended either by the automotive OE or the battery dealer down

    the road. Today, the scenario is not same as battery majors have realized the potential of

    the aftermarket and are offering pro rata warranties of up to 3 years which has been the

    normal life of any lead acid automotive battery. There are a few takeaways from his

    interesting move by the battery manufactures. One, the consumer is being made to realize

    that he / she is getting a better bargain by luring him / her to go for a replacement from

    the organized sector and two, the battery manufacturers want to retain the customer from

    the moment he / she makes the first purchase, forcing some manufacturers to offer a life

    time warranty with some caveats thrown in which can spoil the market in the long run.

    As an extension to the warranty being extended, after sale service has become an

    important differentiating factor with respect to providing excellent after sales support to

    the customer. This has resulted in the manufacturers launching new service program with

    some interesting terminology to capture the attention of the customer.

    Conclusion

    All these strategies have only resulted in the consumer becoming educated

    enough to make intelligent comparisons among products to get a better bargain which in

    turn, has led to the erosion in the market share of the unorganized sector and cheaper

    imports. This move towards branding a low interest product, will go a long way in setting

    some standards for the industry, increasing the entry barriers and making quality products

    available at affordable prices.

  • 7/31/2019 Jilan Project

    The results are there for all to see. Exide industries have more or less doubled its

    dealer network and has also increased its share with the acquisition of standard batteries

    some time and a slew of new products thus making it the number one in the replacement

    market. Amaron is the second largest selling brand in the country today with Prestolite or

    Tudor India following it really close. In the coming months, there is bound to be more

    action in the battery industry with an increase in the number of cars filling-the Indian

    highways and with the upturn in the economy.
