Dhirubhai Ambani had a dream – to put the power of information and

communications in the hands of the common man, at an affordable cost. At

Reliance Communication, we are committed to making that dream come true.

With Reliance India Mobile – the first step – we are offering subscribers a

unique combination of affordability and quality. To begin with, we are inviting

subscribers to make local and STD calls over a next generation wireless

network, at a price that is more attractive than current landline rates. What’s

more, in addition to superior voice connectivity, our service also includes high

speed Internet access and advanced data applications.

Reliance India Mobile is Now Reliance Mobile much more than just another

mobile phone service. It’s an opportunity subscribers just cannot ignore!

Abundant limit for a limited spend If you think that having a mobile phone

means high airtime charges and rising bills… think again! Reliance Mobile

provides subscribers with abundant talk time at very attractive rates –

becoming mobile is now easier than ever before!

‘Death of Distance’ Worried about your STD bill? Get Reliance Mobile and

make long distance calls to any Reliance phone in the country at flat, never-

Pan India Presence We plan to be present in over 600 cities / towns initially.

Our pan-India network will be the most widespread mobile network in the

country! And we will expand to the entire landmass of India by 2004.

22

Superior Voice Quality and Data Capabilities over our next Gen network We

bring to you CDMA 1X – a next generation technology with superior voice

quality (less call drops, reduced background noise, minimal interference with

other electronic devices) and high speed data capabilities. CDMA is popular

with over 135 million subscribers worldwide, with the number increasing

exponentially.

Late Dhirubhai Ambani built Reliance from scratch to be in the reckoning for

a place in the Global Fortune 500 list. This achievement is even more

significant due to the fact, that the entire growth was achieved in an organic

manner and in a span of just 25 years.

Dhirubhai was not just firmly rooted in traditional Indian values, but was also a

quintessentially modern man - the man of the new millennium. This was

clearly reflected in his passion for mega-sized projects, the most advanced

technology and the highest level of productivity.

The corporate philosophy he followed was short simple and succinct - "Think

big. Think differently. Think fast. Think ahead. Aim for the best". He inspired

the Reliance team to do better than the best - not only in India but also in the

world.Dhirubhai Ambani, Founder Chairman of the Reliance Group, had an

acute sense that education alone empowers people. He was a great

communicator. He communicated to inspire, to guide, to educate and to

motivate. He employed telephone as a powerful tool to achieve these goals.

He used telephone to defeat distance, to compress time and to remain

abreast of events. He was acutely aware of the power of information and

communications.

He would often say: "make the tools of communication available to people at

an affordable cost, they will overcome the handicaps of illiteracy and lack of

mobility". He wanted a telephone call to be cheaper than a post card. This, he

believed, would transform every home, empower every Indian, remove the

roadblocks to opportunity and demolish the barriers that divide our society.

Dhirubhai Ambani was of the conviction that communication would energies

enterprises, galvanize governance, make livelihood an enjoyment, learning an

23

experience, and living an excitement. Reliance communication is a fascinating

outcome of this powerful conviction. It is a major initiative to translate his

inspiring dream into reality.

Reliance Communication is the outcome of the late visionary Dhirubhai

Ambani's (1932-2002) dream to herald a digital revolution in India by bringing

affordable means of information and communication to the doorsteps of

India's vast population.

"Make the tools of communication available to people at an affordable cost,

they will overcome the handicaps of illiteracy and lack of mobility", Dhirubhai

Ambani charted out the mission for Reliance Communication in late 1999. He

saw in the potential of information and communication technology a once-in-a-

lifetime opportunity for India to leapfrog over its historical legacy of

backwardness and underdevelopment.

Working at breakneck speed, from late 1999 to 2002 Reliance

Communication built the backbone for a digital India - 60,000 kilometres of

fibre optic backbone, crisscrossing the entire country. The Reliance

Communication pan-India network was commissioned on December 28,

2002, the 70th - birth anniversary of Dhirubhai. This day also marked his first

birth anniversary after his demise July - 6, 2002.

Reliance Communication network is a pan India, high capacity, integrated

(wireless and wire line) and convergent (voice, data and video) digital

network, designed to offer services that span the entire Communication value

chain - infrastructure, services for enterprises and individuals, applications

and consulting. The network is designed to deliver services that will foster a

new way of life for a New India.

INTERNET ACCESSIBILITY

Broadband is a technology that essentially enables high-speed Internet

access. It is a far faster way of connecting to the Internet than the

conventional dial-up method. However, not all broadband connections are the

33

same. It all boils down to those important questions. Is the connection really

fast enough?

When you log in at Reliance World, you are connected to the Internet through

Reliance’s next generation, high-speed, countrywide fibre optic network.

That’s why you will notice the difference as soon as you log in.

Research methodology

Research Design:“A research design is the arrangement of conditions for collection

and analysis of data in a manner that aims to combine relevance

to the research purpose with economy in procedure”

From that customer preference were collected and were enable to

cover almost all the leading brands. This was the research design

for the project.

Types of DataThe task of data collection begins after a research problem has

been defined and research design is chalked out. While deciding

about the method of data collection to be used for the study, the

researcher should keep in mind the two types of data: primary and

secondary. The researcher should decide the sort of data he/she

would be using for the study.

Primary Data

Primary data are those which are collected a fresh and for the first

time and thus happen to be original.

Secondary Data

Secondary data are those which have already been collected by

someone else and which have been already been passed through

the statistical process.

44

Sources of Data:Sources of data are the various sources from where the data is

collected to analyse. There are various sources of data. They are

as follows:

1) Interviews.

2) Internet.

3) Past records.

4) Project which are prepared earlier.

Sources of primary data and secondary data differ as the primary

data is original collected by researcher and secondary data is

collected for various other source.

Sources of data for project:

Primary data: through interviews and questionnaire.

Secondary data: from books and internet.

RESEARCH DESIGN:-

A research design is simply the frame work or plan for a

study that is used as guide in collecting & analyzing the data. It is

the blue print that is followed in completing a study.

TYPES OF RESEARCH:-

1 Exploratory Research

2. Descriptive Research

Exploratory Research:-The major emphasis of exploratory research is on the

discovery of ideas. Marketing researchers devote a significant

portion of their work on exploratory studies when very little is

known about the problem being examined. The idea is to clarify

concepts and subsequently, make more extensive research on

them. The primary advantages of exploratory research studies are

low cost and less time requirement.

Descriptive research:- Descriptive research aims at fact finding & more often is based

on surveys .It’s purpose to describe the present state of affairs of

the topic of study. It is more focused than an exploratory study. It

provides basic information for formulating more sophisticated

study.

48

Sources of Data Collection:-SECONDARY DATA:-

Any data which have been gathered earlier for some

other purpose are secondary data in the hands of the marketing

researcher.

I collected secondary data which was provided by the company.

I collect the data from the net, company broachers and research

books.

PRIMARY DATA:-

Collection of first hand information on any happening or event, we

either ask someone who knows about it or we observe it

ourselves, or we do both. Primary data is collected by two method

1. Observation

2. Communication

METHOD OF DATA COLLECTION

1. QUESTIONNAIRE

2. SCHEDULE

3. INTERVIEW

QUESTIONNAIRE:-

A questionnaire consists of a number of questions printed or

typed in a definite order on a form or set of forms.

49

For collecting Primary Data I have prepared a structured

questionnaire for the respondent after meeting them I filled the

questionnaire and got the data. I prepared my questionnaire with

having all the objective of the study in my mind. My questionnaire

has both open and closed ended question but majority of question

are closed ended.

SAMPLING FUNDAMENTAL

Sampling is the selection of some part of an aggregate or

totality on the basis of which a judgment or inference about the

aggregate or totality is made. It is the process of obtaining

information about an entire population by examining only a part of

it.

UNIVERSE/POPULATION: - My universe of project is Udaipur.

SAMPLE SIZE: - In this case my sample size was 100 people.

SAMPLE UNIT: - Salaried and businessman, Farmer.

RESEARCH PLANIn planning and designing a specific research project it is

necessary to anticipate all the steps that are needed to be

undertaken if the project is to be successful in collecting reliable

and valid information.

The process consists of the following seven steps :

1. Specifying the research objectives: In this step, it is

essential to obtain answers to the questions, “What is the

purpose of the study?” and “What are the objectives of the

research? It is essential to correctly identify and answer the

question for the results to be accurate.

2. Preparing a list of needed information: After a satisfactory

statement of the study’s purpose and objectives have been

established, it is necessary to prepare a list of the information

needed to attain the objectives. The contents of such a list will

be decided by the objectives if the research and the situation

leading to the research request.

3. Designing the data collection project: Necessary to

determine whether such information is already present. Field

data should not be collected unless appropriate secondary

source of information has been reviewed. In the event,

secondary data is not available; the appropriate data has to be

collected from the field.

53

4. Selecting a sample type: As it is difficult to collect data from

a large number of dealers of different companies. Researcher

collects data from a representative sample of these. Sample is

either, probabilistic or non-probabilistic.

5. Determining the sample size: It must be carefully decided as

to how a large sample is to be selected. It is essential to

consider the problem at hand, the budget and the desired

accuracy needed in the data before the question of sample

size can be answered.

6. Organizing and carrying out the field work: Fieldwork

includes collecting, selecting, controlling and evaluating the

data and the feed back. The methods employed are of

importance as they consume a substantial portion of the data

and are a potential source of error through lack of validity and

reliability. The methods are dictated largely by the method of

data collection, sampling requirement and information to be

gathered

7. Analyzing the collected data and reporting the findings:

After all the interviews and for observations have been made,

the completed data collection forms must be processed in a

way that yields the information the project was designed to

obtain. It involves, firstly, the editing of the forms and then the

responses are tabulated.

54

The reporting of research findings represents the end product of

research project. The type of report prepared will vary greatly

depending on the nature of the type of audience to view it.

67

CONCLUSION

68

CONCLUSION

In the present scenario where Communication mediums have brought a

paradigm shift in the growth rate of all socio economic aspects, One can

never leave MOBILE business’ contribution towards the same in presence

of other mediums of communication such as television. In the journey from

its advent to the present it has seen miles ……to be recognized as

MOBILITY Business now.

Reliance communication is the No. 1 Telecom Service Provider in Udaipur

Circle as far as CDMA business is concerned.

However, Airtel being No 1 service provider considering the GSM Market

as a whole.

People prefer prepaid connection over postpaid connection, almost in

every segment / category class liking / takes for prepaid connection in

comparison to postpaid connection. Despite the fact of comparatively

lower tariff, less services related issue & no hassle of recharging in

postpaid people prefer prepaid connection.

People prefer prepaid over postpaid basically to administrator their

expenses & to avoid monthly bill.

As per subscriber / service user “Network” is the first & foremost criteria for

the selection of particular operators service (Network consists of coverage

plus connectivity.

In this era of global competition & highest value for money proposition, call

tariff comes just next to “Network “ .

69

Customer service is the other major area of concern for any service

provider to accrue & retain customers. Reliance is the trend setter

organization in terms of providing customer resolution or customer service.

Reliance has started providing face to face customer resolution to its

subscriber through in all most each & every city across India which

competition does through call centers.

Value added services are rapidly gaining importance & it is going to one of

the key deciding factor in the time to come.

Even lower handsets cost & lower entry cost plays a pivotal role in the

decision for service provider.
