GEOGRAPHIC SEGMENTATION
The reason for doing geographical segmentation is that the region where people live has a big impact on their lifestyles and thus we divided the population into rural and urban population.
In rural areas people follow a more balanced lifestyle than urban people and also rely on natural methods to remain healthy therefore in comparison to the urban areas there is limited scope of growth in the rural areas.

PSYCHOGRAPHIC SEGMENTATION
Division of market on the basis of lifestyle and demographics of the population .
The prevalence of corporate culture in urban india has created irregularities among the indian population which can be seen from the following reasons:
Due to a growing economy and more hectic lifestyles, urban consumers increasingly skip meals and eat out in sometimes unhygienic fast food outlets.
Increasing stress led to constipation, diarrhoea and acidity, especially among young working adults. As a result, demand for digestive remedies is buoyant. In addition to this, lack of intake of nutrients in the form of fruits or dietary supplements further pushed growth

CHANGING DEMOGRAPHICS OF INDIAN POPULATION
The Indian population is younger, more urban, with greater disposable income and high purchasing power parity (PPP). Urban consumers are typically busier and more affluent, thus more willing to pay for convenience.
The main impact of urbanisation has created a growing demand for convenient products.
INCREASE IN FREEZER SPACE OF STORES
CURRENT SEGMENTATION STRATEGY OF YAKULT The current segmentation and
targeting market of Yakult is housewives as they can connect with the benefits of Yakult and use it for their family.
Their brand ambassador Kajol who is a married women also conveys their target the Indian woman who is worried about her family’s health.
With the increase in storage capacities for products like yakult it has broadened the urban market as a segment as they have tie ups with retail stores and confectioners thus making it more easier for consumers to get access to their products.
BENEFIT SEGMENTATION
In this type of segmentation the benfits of a product like Yakult which is that it is a natural product with a good taste which is very good for the digestive system ,readily available at stores nearby are highlighted and the market that readily connects with such attributes are Indian women who want their family to remain naturally fit and other people who due to their lifestyle are finding it difficult to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
MARKET TARGETING
After completeing segmentation on the basis of geographical, demographical , psycographic and benefit the target market will be divided into three types:
The urban indian woman who knows her family i.e. children , husband and elder members are not having a balanced lifestyle and she is not able to do much about it because of some constraints . Thus with a product like yakult which is good in taste , natural .easily accessible ,relatively cheap and keeps the digestive system fit she can easily rest her worries.
The second segment that we would be targeting are the bachelors who are living away from their families and are either working for multinationals or pursuing education. Since they hardly maintain a balanced diet and are a regular ly dining outside they do not carry healthy digestive systems and considering their hectic schedule they hardly can do anything for it.. This would also include the atomic families that are living in the metros along with tier 1 cities.
The data supporting this targeting is the Indian antacid market has reached 220 crore market sales by 2010-11 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.1 percent. Also of this revenue 72% of the share is urban.
The main benefit of Yakult is that it enhances the functioning of digestive system and is completely natural thus as a product it will looking at the antacid market (i.e digene, hajmola, eno, gelusil) as its target market.
‘Probiotic’ is another new health mantra that is increasingly being chanted by the urban health-conscious Indian. These products claim to provide beneficial bacteria which aid the optimal functioning of the digestive system. Though small, this segment will most likely emerge as a sub-category if the efforts to educate consumers and increase awareness succeed.
