Indian oil out lets and Bazzar Traders on servo lubricants at IOCL
1. Strengths: The Government protection in the past has resulted in IOC becoming a gaint in this sector. The large infrastructure created, has given it a advantage that can help it to face the opening up of the sector. Flagship Company: It has been decided that ONGC, IOCL and GAIL would be the flagship companies of the government and government would continue to hold minimum of 51% equity in these companies. This keeping in view the importance of maintaining continuous and uninterrupted supplies of petroleum products to strategic sectors like defense forces and to the in accessible and far-flung areas. Joint Ventures: In keeping with its core strength of petroleum, the company has made a number of joing ventures to gain competitive strength in wake of liberalization. This has resulted in synergy of IOCL and the Joint venture Company by increasing sharing of knowledge and venturing into new markets to gain competence in global economy.

2. Weakness:
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com
Page 17
Indian oil out lets and Bazzar Traders on servo lubricants at IOCL The bottlenecks involved with the government functioning have to be faced by IOC too. The requirements of aggressive and quick decisions making required in the wake of competition from foreign as well as national companies will be felt strongly as slow government processes can have short term as well as long term consequences. The area given to sales officers in retail marketing is very big as compared to other majors. •
Has only 40 Mt capacity
•
However the prior refining yield of around 70% due to old and smaller refineries remains a cause of concern.
•
Government control in the functioning.
3. Opportunities: The Indian Oil sector is at the threshold of decontrol the government in gradually slackening controls over the give products (MS, HSD, ATF, SKO & LPG) that contributes 70% of the volumes. International profits: Post deregulation, Indian refining margins would trap global refining margins. These margins, however would be relatively insulted because of tariff barriers and transportation costs. Marketing margins would continue to remain under administrator pricing till F.Y.2003. In F.Y. 2004, IOC has seen another quantum jump in earnings with decontrol of marketing / distribution network. Large capital resource: IOCL is expected to be one of the largest beneficiaries of deregulation process especially after the redemption of oil bonds, which will create considerable cash glows for the company.
Less Government control: While retention pricing for refineries has been abolished w.e.f. Apr. 98, controls on 5 products (MS, HSD, LPG, SKO, ATF) which account for Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

Demand in 2024-25, 370 Mt.
4. Threats: •
The opening up this sector w.e.f. April 2001 has brought the entry of the multinational and private national companies Like Reliance, MRPL, Essar, and Shell in this huge market. The huge resources, experience at the disposal of the multinationals, the attack of smaller companies at the niche markets will aim at taking the share of the leader IOC. The threat is also from the increasing .market of LNG / CNG as substitute.
•
Competition from the regular competitors
•
Deregulation will cause competitions from loyal players.
•
Competition from foreign players
•
CNG / LNG to become the fuel of the future.
•
Increase in Price hike in International Market
•
Shell has entered petrol marketing, has done an investment of Rs. 20 Bn

ABOUT THE PROJECT
THEOROTICAL BACK GROUND FOR THE PROJECT Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com
Page 20
Indian oil out lets and Bazzar Traders on servo lubricants at IOCL In this project I wanted know what are the tools used to improve the sales Belgaum. It is a managerial process of developing and maintaining a viable fit between the organizations, objectives, skills and resources and its changing market opportunities. The aim of strategic planning in my project is to shape and reshape the companies businesses and products so that they yield target profits and growth by increasing sales. Today every company has its own marketing plan, without this no company will survive in this competitive market. This marketing plan can be understood by studying various situations that are mentioned below
Market Situation. Companies Situation. Competitors Situation. Macro Environment.
MARKET SITUATION The market situation of Belgaum is unstable and competitive as it is a large lubricant market with many brands. Most of the area of these places are occupied by brand leaders. As there is a continuous entry of new brands of lubricant the market it becomes very difficult for the customers to buy the lubricant. As it is a competitive market large number of dealers are authorized of brand leaders, therefore large area is occupied by these brands. Since there is a large demand for these brand leaders in these places and also customers prefer its quality product. Especially the market situation in Belgaum is unstable and the sales are also faster, due to huge sales promotional activities by others brand has made its name in Belgaum.

Even though its prices are high customers prefer to buy these and also the dealers don’t get much margins, bonus facilities from these companies yet they sell these brands faster then other brands.,
COMPANIES SITUATION The company has brand in the market with maximum loyal customers that has the larger market share compare to competitors only the demand and supply should match which will help to maintain and increase the sales COMPETITORS SITUATION
In the total dominated market of Belgaum a large number of companies are existing. Each competitor is using various strategies to make its brand image to acquire market share. Actually what is a BRAND? A brand is a name. Term, sign, symbol or design or a combination of them intended to identify the goods or a service of one sellers or group of sellers and to differentiate them from those of competitors. A powerful brand name is said to have high brand equity ie, a brand is a asset in so far as it can be sold or bought for the price. Many lubricant companies are basing their growth on acquiring and building rich brand portfolios.
The popular brand in Belgaum is because of its service, demand, easily available. This company has made use of marketing strategies continuously because of which their brand is popular.

SUGGESTION S

Indian oil out lets and Bazzar Traders on servo lubricants at IOCL
SUGGESTIONS 1) Since supply seems to be the one of problems stocks registers should be the provided to the dealers so that they can maintain records of all inventory and sales thus it becomes easier to monitor the supply. 2) Dealer ego massaging since dealer loyalties seem to be low is imperative that they be given free gifts and prize be offered for reaching the targets, also gifts be every year to the dealers to distribute to the costumers. 3) Dealers should given training on the art of pushing products to the costumers. 4) Servo lubricants has good band name in market with good number of dealers but with reference this project it was found that servo lubricant contribute 50% of sales to their total sales . 5)
Comparing to dealers of bazzar traders Indian retail outlets (petrol bunks of iocl) less contribution towards servo lubricants company should inspect and find out the reason in decline of servo at Indian retail outlets.

CONCLUSIO N

Indian oil out lets and Bazzar Traders on servo lubricants at IOCL
CONCLUSION The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step and this step has been taken by Indian Oil Corporation Limited by being the only company to hold the flagship of the country. Indian Oil Corporation is one of the fortunes 500 Companies of the World and ranks 170th in the list. Growing demand, a turbulent supply market lack of spare production capacity and continual turmoil in several oil-producing countries pushed up crude oil prices to record levels beyond the US $ 50 per barrel mark. In order to be the brand leader the company should maintain good relationship with channel partners. They should motivate and train the sales persons to increase the sales.
