Chapter 1Introduction
1.1Purpose of the Study
Videocon is a company hard to pass by as it was one of the few Indian Companies
to be listed in Fortune 500 besides being initial Indian MNC. With its wide range
of electrical product range. I choose Videocon D2H which providing satellite
television direct to TV without any set top box also and I undertook this study to
make comparison between Videocon D2H and its competitors products.
1.2Research objectives of the Study
To do Comparative study of Videocon D2h with its competitors products.
To do study on aspects like product line, technology, distribution, marketing,
innovation, competition and growth of DTH industry.
To draw the various conclusions and recommendations on the basis ofthe study conducted.
1.3Research Methodology of the study
Every project work is based on certain methodology, which is a way to
systematically solve the problem or attain its objectives. It is a very important
guideline and lead to completion of any project work through observation, data
collection and data analysis.
According to Clifford Woody
Research Methodology comprises of defining & redefining problems,
collecting, organizing &evaluating data, making deductions &researching to
conclusions.
7/22/2019 Videocon by Etanshu (1Main

Research methodology is considered as the nerve of the project. Without a proper
well-organized research plan, it is impossible to complete the project and reach to
any conclusion. The project was based on the survey plan. The main objective of
survey was to collect appropriate data, which work as a base for drawing
conclusion and getting result.
Therefore, research methodology is the way to systematically solve the research
problem. Research methodology not only talks of the methods but also logic
behind the methods used in the context of a research study and it explains why a
particular method has been used in the preference of the other methods.
Accordingly, the methodology used in the project is as follows: -
Research Design
Methods of data collection
Limitations of the study
1.3.1 Research Design
Research design is important primarily because of the increased complexity in the
market as well as marketing approaches available to the researchers. In fact, it is
the key to the evolution of successful marketing strategies and programmers. It is
an important tool to study buyers behavior, consumption pattern, brand loyalty,
and focus market changes. A research design specifies the methods and procedures
for conducting a particular study.
According to Kerlinger, Research Design is a plan, conceptual structure, and
strategy of investigation conceived as to obtain answers to research questions and
to control variance.
Types of Research design
Descriptive Research
The type of research adopted for study is descriptive. Descriptive studies areundertaken in many circumstances when the researches is interested to know the
7/22/2019 Videocon by Etanshu (1Main
8/75
3 | P a g e
characteristic of certain group such as age, sex, education level, occupation or
income. A descriptive study may be necessary in cases when a researcher is
interested in knowing the proportion of people in a given population who have in
particular manner, making projections of a certain thing, or determining the
relationship between two or more variables. The objective of such study is to
answer the who, what, when, where and how of the subject under investigation.
There is a general feeling that descriptive studies are factual and very simple. This
is not necessarily true. Descriptive study can be complex, demanding a high degree
of scientific skill on part of the researcher.
Descriptive studies are well structured. An exploratory study needs to be flexible in
its approach, but a descriptive study in contrast tends to be rigid and its approachcannot be changed every now and then. It is therefore necessary, the researcher
give sufficient thought to framing research. Questions and deciding the types of
data to be collected and the procedure to be used in this purpose. Descriptive
studies can be divided into two broad categories: Cross Sectional and
Longitudinal Sectional . A cross sectional study is concerned with a sample of
elements from a given population. Thus, it may deal with household, dealers, retail
stores, or other entities. Data on a number of characteristics from sample elements
are collected and analyzed. Cross sectional studies are of two types: Field study
and Survey. Although the distinction between them is not clear- cut, there are some
practical differences, which need different techniques and skills. Field studies are
ex-post-factor scientific inquiries that aim at finding the relations and interrelations
among variables in a real setting. Such studies are done in live situations like
communities, schools, factories, and organizations.
Another type of cross sectional study is survey result, which has been taken by me.
A major strength of survey research is its wide scope. Detail information can be
obtained from a sample of large population .Besides; it is economical as more
information can be collected per unit of cost. In addition, it is obvious that a
sample survey needs less time than a census inquiry. Descriptive research includes
survey and fact finding enquiries of different kinds of the major purpose.
Descriptive research is description of the state of affairs, as it exists at present. The
main characteristic of this method is that the researcher has no control over the
variables; he can only report what has happened or what is happening. The
7/22/2019 Videocon by Etanshu (1Main

methods of research utilized in descriptive research are survey methods of all kinds
including comparative and co relational methods. The reason for using such needs
to be flexible in its approach, but a descriptive study in contrast tends to be rigid
and its approach cannot be changed every now and then.
Exploratory Research
In the case of exploratory research, the focus is on the discovery of ideas. In a
business where sales have been declining for the past few months, the management
may conduct a quick study to find out what could be the possible explanations
the sales might have declined on account of a number of factors, such as the
deterioration in the quality product, increased competition, inadequate orineffective advertising, lack of efficient and trained salesmen or use of the wrong
channels of distribution. In such a case an exploratory may be conducted to find
the most likely cause.
An exploratory study is generally based on the secondary data that are readily
available. It does not have a formal and rigid design as the researcher may have to
change his focus or direction, depending on the availability of new ideas and
relationships among variables. An exploratory study is in the nature of a
preliminary investigation wherein the researcher himself is not sufficiently
knowledgeable and is, therefore, unable to frame detailed research questions.
Therefore, the objective of this is to generate new ideas.
Casual Research
To understand which variables are the cause (independent variables) and
which variables are the effect (dependent variables) of a phenomenon
To determine the nature of the relationship between the causal variables
and the effect to be predicted
METHOD: Experiments
Causal designs differ from descriptive designs in their greater probability ofestablishing causality. The reason for this is that causal designs are similarto experiments done in a lab, where we know what goes in, what changesare made, and what results from the changes. Causal designs are alsoknown as experimental designs. It analyzes the causeeffect relationship
between the variables.

1.3.2 Method of Data Collection
Instrument for the data collection is secondary data. In today's world correct
information is the key to success.Secondary data is collected by others but utilized
or used by the researcher. Secondary data is data that has already been collected
and collated by somebody for some reason other than the current study. It can be
used to get a new perspective on the current study, to supplement or compare the
work or to use parts of it, as another study may prove costly and time consuming.
Advantages
1. It is economical. It saves efforts and expenses.
2. It is time saving.
3. It helps to make primary data collection more specific since with the help
of secondary data, we are able to make out what are the gaps and
deficiencies and what additional information needs to be collected.
4. It helps to improve the understanding of the problem.
5. It provides a basis for comparison for the data that is collected by the
researcher.
Evaluation of secondary data
Evaluation means the following four requirements must be satisfied:-
1. Availability-It has to be seen that the kind of data you want is available or
not. If it is not available then you have to go for primary data.
2. Relevance-It should be meeting the requirements of the problem. For thiswe have two criterion:-
7/22/2019 Videocon by Etanshu (1Main
11/75
6 | P a g e
a. Units of measurement should be the same.
b. Concepts used must be same and currency of data should not be
outdated.
3. Accuracy- In order to find how accurate the data is, the following points
must be considered: -
a. Specification and methodology used
b. Margin of error should be examined
c. The dependability of the source must be seen.
4. Sufficiency-Adequate data should be available.
Precautions in the use of secondary data
The investigator should consider the following points before using the secondary
data:
a) Are the data reliable?
b) Are the data suitable for the purpose of investigation?
c) Are the data adequate?
d) Are the data collected by proper method?
e) From which source were the data collected?
f) Who has collected the data?
g) Are the data biased?
Thus, the secondary data should not be used at its face value. It is risky to use
such statistics collected by others unless they have been properly scrutinized
and found reliable,suitableand adequate.
Thus in my opinion, this was the best method, that could have been used
which provided such an in-depth and detailed information.
Statistical tools used
The main statistical tools used for the collection and analyses of data in this project
are:
Pie Charts
7/22/2019 Videocon by Etanshu (1Main

Tables
Pie chart
This is very useful diagram to represent data, which are divided into a number of
categories. This diagram consists of a circle of divided into a number of sectors,
which are proportional to the values they represent. The total value is represented
by the full create. The diagram bar chart can make comparison among the various
components or between a part and a whole of data.
Bar chart
This is another way of representing data graphically. As the name implies, it
consist of a number of whispered bar, which originate from a common base lineand are equal widths. The lengths of the bards are proportional to the value they
represent.
1.1.1 Limitations of the study
Although the project has been worked out at its best yet there are some limitations,
which cannot be overlooked. Had these limitations been overcome, the findings
would be accurate.
Some of the limitations are:
1) Time constraint:
Time was really a limiting factoring the project. Its really difficult to work out
such a large project between two months time.
2) Data constraint:
All the data that has been collected for this project, has been taken from secondary
sources like websites, magazines, newspapers and book.
However, every effort is made to ensure that these do not in any way adverselyaffect the results of the study and inject an element of objecting.

2.9 ABOUT DTH
DTH stand for direct-to-home television. DTH is defined as the reception of
satellite programmes with a personal dish in an individual home. DTH does away
with the need for the local cable operators can receive satellite programmes and
they then distribute them.
2.9.1 Overview of DTH Industry
The history of Indian television dates back to the launch of doordarshan, Indias
national TV network in 1959. The transmission was in black & white. The 9th
Asian games which were held in 1982 in the countrys capital New Delhi heralded
the mark of color TV broadcasting in India. In 1991, Indian economy was
liberalized from the License Raj and major initiatives like inviting foreign direct
investments, deregulation of domestic business emerged. This lead to the influx of
foreign channels like Star TV and creation of domestic satellite channels like Sun
TV and Zee TV. This virtually destroyed the monopoly held by doordarshan. In
1992, the cable TV industry started which lead to revolution.
7/22/2019 Videocon by Etanshu (1Main

Every city in the India had a complex web of co-axial cables running through the
streets with a new breed of entrepreneurs called as cablewallahs or Local Cable
Operators (LCO) taking in charge of distribution. The film industry was shocked
by this sudden growth and there were even organized protests for calling off the
Cable TV industry. There were simply too many cable operators in the country and
the channels had a difficult time in getting its returns as the existing system was a
non-addressable and the operators could simply give a reduced number of
subscribers to a mass profit. This lead to the emergency of a new breed of firms
called as Multi System Operators (MSO) who had heavy financial muscles to make
capital investments. The MSO industry became highly monopolistic which
warrants government participation to ensure competition.Later on, the United Front Government had issued a ban on use of ku band
transmission. After a change of government, the ban got lifted finally in 2001 and
TRAI issued the guidelines for operating DTH. Countrys first private DTH
license was awarded to Dish TV in 2003 which started operations in 2004. Prasar
Bharati also started its product DD-Direct+.
DTH Digital TV system receives signals directly from satellite through the dish,
decodes it with the Set-Top Box and then sends stunningly clear picture and sound
to TV which is the business under taken by some companies by observing the rate
of growth and scope for business & opportunity in the Indian market which has
120 million viewers of TV.
With the Indian economy growing at a GDP growth rate of 7.4%, there is a sense
of growth prevailing everywhere. The average Indians disposable income and
purchasing has risen to never before levels. The Indian entertainment and media
industry is not far behind. It is currently estimated at a worth of Rs.450 billion with
a CAGR of 18% over the next 5 years. Terms which were alien to Indians like
capital DTH, digital cables, IPTV are suddenly finding presence in the countrys
journals.
In 2007, TRAI proposed a new initiative by name Head end-In-The-Sky (HITS)
Model as an alternative to the existing cable d istribution. Instead of the MSOs
providing the bundle, there will be a single HITS operator who will prepare the
bundle of channels and beam it to the Headed in the satellite. The LCOs can
receive this digitalized bundle and deliver to the individual homes. With HITS,
7/22/2019 Videocon by Etanshu (1Main

country wide implementation of CAS becomes instantaneous and cost-effective.
This benefits both the broadcasters and the customers by ensuring Addressability,
Better quality of service and increased number of channels. Another emerging
trend is the IPTV which is yet to be regulated and one can expect lot of action in
this sector.
According to a report on Direct to home (DTH) service, it predicts that India would
overtake Japan as Asias largest DTH by 2010 and be the Asias leading cable
market by 2010 and the most profitable pay-TV market by 20015.

Picture depicting how DTH works
A DTH network consists of a broadcasting centre, satellites, encoders,
multiplexers, modulators and DTH receivers.
A DTH service provider has to lease Ku-band transponders from the satellite. The
encoder converts the audio, video and data signals into the digital format and the
multiplexer mixes these signals. At the user end, there will be a small dish antenna
and set-top boxes to decode and view numerous channels. On the user's end,
receiving dishes can be as small as 45 cm in diameter.
DTH is an encrypted transmission that travels to the consumer directly through a
satellite. DTH transmission is received directly by the consumer at his end through
the small dish antenna. A set-top box, unlike the regular cable connection, decodes
the encrypted transmission.

3.1.2 Technology of Production and Distribution of DTH
Cost Structure
The costs incurred by the DTH players is mainly on its technology, satellite dish,
set top box accessory cards, Ku band transponders in the satellites, customer
premise equipment(CPE). The launch of satellites is another huge cost which the
DTH plays shares the transponders. And it costs them much than anything.
Another cost incurred is on operating cost.
Economies of Scale
Economies of scale may be utilized by any size firm expanding its scale of
operation. The common ones are purchasing (bulk buying of materials throughlong-term contracts), managerial (increasing the specialization of managers),
financial (obtaining lower-interest charges when borrowing from banks and having
access to a greater range of financial instruments), and marketing (spreading the
cost of advertising over a greater range of output in media markets).
Cost Advantages:-
1] Direct customer relationship.
2] Better storage
3] Extensive use of resources.
4] Availability of labor at cheap rates
Economies of Scope
An economic theory stating that the average total cost of production decreases as a
result of increasing the number of different goods produced.
Often, as the number of products promoted is increased and the DTH players used,
more people can be reached with each rupee spent. These efficiencies do not last,
however; at some point, additional advertising expenditure on new products will
start to be less effective (an example of diseconomies of scope). If a sales force is
selling several products they can often do so more efficiently than if they are
selling only one product. The cost of their travel time is distributed over a greater
revenue base, so cost efficiency improves.
There can also be synergies between products such that offering a complete range
of products gives the consumer a more desirable product offering than a single
7/22/2019 Videocon by Etanshu (1Main
37/75
32 | P a g e
product would. Economies of scope can also operate through distribution
efficiencies. It can be more efficient to ship a range of products to any given
location than to ship a single type of product to that location.
Value added
Many players are using this DTH as the basis and giving many value added
services to the customers. Some of the players are giving best valued services to
the customers like Airtel gives live-news, home shopping, live gaming, broad
band, horoscope, radio, and etc. Tata sky is giving recording for more than 4
hours, and came with a differential strategy of Tata sky+ with other facilities. Big
TV is giving live with Big movies, Dish TV is giving live TV on the wheels, andmany other value additions.
Logistics
Logistics is still a nascent and fragmented industry in India. It is estimated that
while outsourced logistics accounts for 54% of total logistics spending in India,
organized players have only 10% of the pie.
DTH industry follows a good logistics which is as similar to the logistics which are
used by automobile industry, for the effective management of the DTH industry.
Labour
Labours are included in every activity of the business, most of the people working
are not daily labours, and they are employed and paid monthly in the form of
salary. DTH requires skilled labor like management executives, administrators,
software engineers, sales executives and attorneys.
3.1.3 Marketing
Market segmentation, marketing strategies, marketing practices and marketing
concepts specific to the industry, Indian TV channel broadcast 15.7-mn
advertisement every year, which totals to 362-mn seconds of TV advertisement
every year. India currently has over 400 channels.
TV viewer ship has declined by 5% since 2001. TV broadcasters are expected to
go hike in advertisement rate this year by 16-18%. Market segmentation in DTH
7/22/2019 Videocon by Etanshu (1Main
38/75
33 | P a g e
industry mainly concentrates on women who dont like missing their daily soap
and news more ever women are able to learn English speaking which is a very
special feature of DTH. DTH also concentrates on children also by providing them
games, dictionary, some discovery videos specially inbuilt, maths, science and
social knowledge. It also focuses on old people as it has updated videos of various
holy and religious places.
DTH uses different marketing strategies for promotion and sales of its product. It
gives advertisements with their brand ambassadors which attract customers, door
to door selling, on the phone selling, discount and offer sales, packages, etc
Marketing practices is a continuous process as the competition keeps increasing
among the players in the industry. Each player is investing lots of money inpromoting their brands. Many players are making advertisement with movie actor
and actress as brand ambassadors for their products because DTH is mainly
considered with entertainment.
Some of the companies like Tata sky is having Super Star Amir khan as brand
ambassador and Airtel is having many film stars like kareena kapoor,
A.R.Rahaman, saif ali khan, etc. Dish TV is also having Super Star Sharuk khan as
the brand ambassador.
Sun direct also uses southern actress for their brand promotion. Marketing
practices are the decisions taken by the manufacturing company to increase sales,
expand themselves into many areas etc. Successful marketing practices bring sale
up, while unsuccessful marketing practices have no impact on sale or negatively
impact sale. Marketing concepts specific to the industry is primarily targeted at a
niche segment who buy the TV sets from the electronic retail chains.

3.1.4 Innovation
Types of innovation, concepts of innovation relevant to the industry, source of
innovation, rate of innovation and economies of scale.
The concept of innovation in DTH industry is INCREMENTAL innovation;
everything that is done is due to constant research of many marketing and analysts
to bring many innovations to the existing products in the DTH industry.
Incremental innovation is the apt innovation which is suitable and all the DTH
players are concentrating up on.
This innovation makes the business to grow continuously and brings advantages to
the customers using the products and the service.
There are many sources of innovation for this industry as mentioned in the above,the technology and the people are the main sources for the innovation. Customers
opinions and their needs can be served by providing a service which is matching to
their needs and requirements. In this days every company setups its own R&D in
its own company with very intelligent people for meeting the expectation of the
customer.
Digital TV, the DTH service from Airtel, has announced Indias first skin
integration innovation on its EPG screen in partnership with Yahoo. Yahoo takes
forward its latest brand campaign YOU in this first of its kind partnership where
an online portal will use DTH as a medium to promote itself.
The Electronic Programming Guide screen on Airtel digital TV is now
completely integrated with Yahoo Indias homepage. Customers will find a
message Fill your home page with all the things that make YOU when they log
onto to the EPG screen. A prompting Red Button will take them to a dedicated
landing page that elaborates the offerings on Yahoo Indias new home page. The
YOU campaign enables users to customize the home page as per their liking and
empowers them with the choice to integrate social applications such as Facebook
with their Yahoo homepage. This whole idea was conceived by Network Play,
right from design elements to execution and thanks to Mindshare for buying into
the idea and flawlessly helping people execute it. Tata Teleservices Limited has
announced a technological breakthrougha first-of-its-kind innovation in India
with the launch of TATA Photon TV, a new application that allows Tata Photon
7/22/2019 Videocon by Etanshu (1Main
40/75
35 | P a g e
Plus subscribers to watch live television channels on their laptops while on the
move, and on their personal computers at home and in the office. The Photon TV
service is exclusively available to Photon Plus users.
With its growing popularity, Photon Plus has caught the admiration of millions of
users across the country, with its high-speed data access capabilities and the ease
of mobility.
TATA Photon TV is a personal computer- and laptop-based video-streaming
application, which allows Tata Photon Plus users to view live TV feed from
various sports, news, entertainment and regional channels, and to watch recordedTV shows from the library movies, music and videos on demand.
Internet Browsing charges will be charged as per your Photon+ tariff plan and it
would be applicable while viewing Photon TV. These charges would be over and
above the subscription charges for the Photon TV. (Approximate data usage is 1-
2MB per Min).
Rate of innovation in this sector is growing at a faster rate in the recent years
where as it is not very impressive before this period. The reason for this is the fair
competition between the all players in this DTH industry. It led to the development
of new products in this sector which also led to the diversification of products as
there is abolition of entry of foreign industries into Indian industries initially. It
also made the industries in this sector to establish their own R&D departments for
successful product innovations like Airtel Live, Videocon d2h.
The brand loyalty for each and every company is very high, so there is no need of
lot of costs to be poured in marketing and promotion of the service and product.
Every function that is performed by the players is a well planned and executed
properly.
So in all the areas those players are using the expertise people in the industry and
performing operations in DTH industry very economically.

3.1.5 Strategies and competition in the Industry
Competitors, Strategies used in the industry, Porters generic strategies model,
porters five forces model and analysis using it, element of industry structure,
porters value chain model analysis, swot analysis, concept of generic value chain,
concept of growth share market matrix, company position .
Competitors
Every company has its own goal, every company wants to achieve and full fill its
goals, many companies like the big players in the industry wants to grab most of
the market share. Some of the companies want to achieve 10million customer base
by 2010 they are Dish TV, Tata sky, Sun direct, BIG TV etc.The industrys objective is to achieve 60million customers buy 2012 i.e., nearly
50% of the present existing customers.
Strategies used in the industry
Technology transfer is one of strategy used in the industry and it is existence for a
long time. In recent decades, concerted effort has been made to exploit the existing
technology to a larger extent by transfer of technology, to generate greater
economic impetus. It provides opportunity to generate larger returns on the
investments made in R&D. Its importance lies in its ability to stimulate and
strengthen the innovation process.
Porters generic strategies model
Generic strategies were used initially in the early 1980s, and seem to be even more
popular today. They outline the three main strategic options open to organization
that wish to achieve a sustainable competitive advantage.
7/22/2019 Videocon by Etanshu (1Main
42/75
37 | P a g e
The generic strategies are: 1. Cost leadership, 2. Differentiation, and 3. Focus
1. Cost leadership
In the case of media products, means they should be offered at a price lower than
their competitors but with as good benefits, or, the unique benefits the media
products offer can over-offset the premium.
2. Differentiation
Differentiation in DTH refers to when a organization provides unique benefits to
the users through product innovation. This is to increase the probability of the
media users to choose the product. A media organization with a target user loyalty
can concentrate more on how to fully meet the target users needs rather than on
product cost saving.
3. Focus
Focus strategy is also known as a 'niche' strategy. The clutter of ads has now
spilled out on the number of channel availability due to which people are spoilt for
choice. Thus Niche channels are the only way to maintain viewer loyalty. TATA
Photon plus is more niche oriented.

Porters five force model
The five forces which one must consider to analyze any industry are the rivalry
between the firms within the industry being analyzed, the bargaining power of
buyers, the bargaining power of suppliers, the threat of substitute products or
services, and the threat of new entrants (also known asbarriers to entry). They are
also shown in the diagram below. Initially propounded by Harvard Business
School Professor Michael Porter, the Five Forces framework has been accepted as
a strategic framework which one can apply to analyze any industry.
Threat of substi tutes
DTH gives stiff competition from the terrestrial, cable & IPTV. As per the industry
estimates, there are 130 million TV homes of which 71 million are served by cable
and around 6 million served by DTH with the remaining taken by terrestrial
transmission. As IPTV is a new entrant there is not much data on its subscriber
base.
Bargaining power of suppliers
DTH industry relies on three major suppliers. Customer premise equipment (CPE)
http://www.franteractive.com/strategy/Porter-Barriers-to-Entry.htmlhttp://www.franteractive.com/strategy/Porter-Barriers-to-Entry.html7/22/2019 Videocon by Etanshu (1Main
45/75
40 | P a g e
Comparing of the satellite Dish, Set Top Box with the necessary Access Card, the
Ku band transponders are obtaining satellites and content. With India set to
overtake Japan as Asias largest DTH by next year, the bargaining power of India
DTH operators with CPE suppliers have been steadily increasing.
Bargaining power of buyers
With enough operations to choose both from the point of alternate mediums like
cable, IPTV and terrestrial broadcast and from the point of increasing DTH
operators, the consumer is at his will to decide. Customers will continue to have a
high bargaining power until DTH platforms try to differentiate them as superior
players with better content and clarity.
Rivalr y among existing firms
With 3 operational players and 4 players in the queue, inter firm rivalry is quite
high.
The competition from state owned DD-Direct to private players in negligible from
the content point of view as the number of channels offered by DD-Direct is very
limited. However, DD-Direct does not change any monthly subscription charges.
Between Dish TV is Tata Sky there is an intense rivalry exhibited by price war and
discount schemes offered to new connections. Being the first mover, dish TV had
price advantage in both the STB offers superiors DVD quality Video to its
advanced STB.
While Dish TV is planning to spend Rs. 850crs over the next 3 years, the rival
TataSky is willing to spend Rr.2000crs over the medium term. The companies
have also set ambitious targets with Dish TV aiming to reach 5 million subscribers
in the next 18 to 20 months while Tata sky aiming to reach 8million subscribers in
the next 18 to 20 months while Tata sky aiming for 8 million subscribers by 2012.
Threat of new entr ants
With already 7 players space in the DTH space, threat of new entrants is low.
There is already enough competition which will discourage new firms to enter this
business. While getting a licensee is relatively easy, the barriers to entry are high
7/22/2019 Videocon by Etanshu (1Main
46/75
41 | P a g e
when it comes to pricing of CPE and getting the required transponder. There is a
definite, first mover advantage.
Analysis of the Industry using Porters value chain model
Porters value chain analysis is considered with the value analysis of the several
functions of the DTH industry, it makes to understand the importance of this model
to develop and add on value to the present features of the industry and its
functioning.
Value analysis says that an effective logistics should be undertaken to
commencement of the business in cost effective way. The most the cost effective,
the more value is added to the process. It is nothing but proper or optimal use ofthe resources present and using the technology. This value addition is not only in
the logistics, it should be carried in all areas of the management, production,
distribution and etc. Thus DTH industry can increase its value addition to the
customers and the features and of industry.
Concept of growth share matrix (BCG model)
The BCGGROWTH SHARE MATRIX is a portfolio planning model developed
by Bruce Henderson of the Boston Consulting Group in the early 1970's. It is
based on the observation that a company's business units can be classified into four
categories based on combinations of market growth and market share relative to
the largest competitor, hence the name growth share.
Under the BCG GROWTH-SHARE MATRIX, as an industry matures and itsgrowth rate declines, a business unit will become either a cash cow or a dog,
7/22/2019 Videocon by Etanshu (1Main
47/75
42 | P a g e
determined solely by whether it had become the market leader during the period of
high growth. While originally developed as a model for resource allocation among
the various business units in a corporation, the growth-share matrix also can be
used for resource allocation among products within a single business unit.
In the DTH industry when the market share is obtained then it is automatically
treated as the market leader, and also it needs maximum market share to extent,
when the market is not in incremental state then the growth rate of the industry will
retain. Again this industry follows all the variables in the all areas till the both will
come into normal level.
3.1.7 Growth of the Industry
Rate of Growth
The DTH service market in India has emerged as one of the most lucrative markets
which have successfully resisted the impacts of the current economic slowdown.
The slowdown has certainly proved a boon for the Indian DTH industry as people
have now started to cut on their entertainment expenditure and instead of viewing
movies at theatres, they are preferring to stay at home with their television sets.
With the Indian economy growing at a GDP growth rate of 7.4%, there is a sense
of growth prevailing everywhere. The average Indians disposable income and
purchasing has risen to never before levels. The industry is anticipated to add
nearly 5 Lakh subscribers per month during 2009 and the numbers are forecasted
to surge further at a CAGR of around 30% through 2012, "Indian DTH Market
Forecast to 2012". 20% annual growth is being witnessed in the DTH sector in
India with over 8.5 million households having digital pay-TV.
A report attributes that the anticipated growth to the efforts of DTH industry
players who are all trying to lure viewers by cutting down prices as well as offering
perks even though it translates into loss of Rs 1,600-2,000 on each new subscriber
acquired by them. They have started to offer a number of value-added services
such as 'movie on demand', live recording of TV content, matrimonial match-
making, etc.
7/22/2019 Videocon by Etanshu (1Main
48/75
43 | P a g e
Pattern of Growth
The big game is all about shaping up grandiose plans to master the winning rules to
garner as much portion of the Indian DTH pie as possible by a handful of players.
Since the DTH space denotes big value, akin to the space occupied by television
and telephony, inter-firm rivalries have thrown up price wars, discount schemes,
procurement of transponders, ambitious targets for improving the subscription
base, popular bouquet of channels, set top boxes with superior quality of videos,
improving content, etc as a desperate means to entice the Indian viewer.
The pattern of growth is very difficult to determine because a business cycle takes
place in long term. But this industry is having very short period for making or
observing a business cycle.The analysis that can be made is though the economic cycles is not continues and it
was in boom then when the industry started and now just the economy is in
recovering stage from the recession. Interesting factor is that all the industries are
hit seriously buy the rescission but DTH industry has reported growth continuously
but only it has slowdown the rate of its growth. Now the industry is growing at
20% for every annum.
Growth Determinants
Demand constraints and SCAR are the factors which effects the growth of the
industry. Growth determinant and high TV sales increase the chance for more
sales of set top box which will affect the growth. When the facilities of the
products increase it acts as a growth determinant.
The entertainment channels and the news channels players increase the growth to
opt the DTH. Some of the DTH players are bringing innovative plans like live
shopping, broad band, and etc will act as growth determinants.

DD Direct+
Doordarshan is the public television broadcaster of India and a division of Prasar
Bharati, a public service broadcaster nominated by the Government of India. It is
one of the largest broadcasting organizations in the world in terms of the
infrastructure of studios and transmitters. Recently, it has also started Digital
Terrestrial Transmitters. On September 15 2009, Doordarshan celebrated its 50th
anniversary.
Doordarshan had a modest beginning with the experimental telecast starting
in Delhi on 15 September 1959 with a small transmitter and a makeshift studio.
The regular daily transmission started in 1965 as a part of All India Radio.
The television service was extended to Bombay (now Mumbai) and Amritsar in
1972. Till 1975, seven Indian cities had television service and Doordarshan
remained the only television channel in India. Television services were separated
from radio in 1976. Each office of All India Radio and Doordarshan were placed
under the management of two separate Director Generals in New Delhi.
Finally Doordarshan as a National Broadcaster came into existence.
National telecasts were introduced in 1982. In the same year, color TV was
introduced in the Indian market with the live telecast of the Independence Day
speech by then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi on 15 August 1982, followed by the
1982 Asian Games being held in Delhi. Now more than 90 percent of the Indian
population can receive Doordarshan (DD National) programmes through a network
of nearly 1400 terrestrial transmitters and about 46 Doordarshan studios produce
TV programs today.
DD Direct+ is a free Direct to Home (DTH) service that provides satellite
television and audio programming to households and businesses in the Indian
subcontinent. Owned by parent company Doordarshan, DD Direct Plus was

launched on December 16, 2004. Now chairman of DD direct+ is Shri Arun
Bhatnagar and CEO is B S Lalli under the ministry of information and
broadcasting.
Dish TV
Dish TV is the first private DTH satellite television provider in India,
using MPEG-2 digital compression technology, transmitting using NSS Satellite at
95.0. Dish TV's managing director and Head of Business is Jawahar Goel who is
also the promoter of Essel Group and is also the President of Indian Broadcasting
Foundation and Mr. Subhash Chandra is the Chairman of Dish TV. Dish TV is a
division of Zee Network Enterprise (Essel Group Venture). EGV has national and
global presence with business interests in media programming, broadcasting &
distribution, speciality packaging and entertainment. Zee Network incorporated
dishtv to modernize TV viewing. By digitalizing Indian entertainment, this
enterprise brought best television viewing technology to the living room. It not
only transmits high quality programmes through satellite; but also gives a complete
control of selecting channels and paying
DTH service was launched back in 2004 by launching of Dish TV by Essel
Group's Enterprises. Dish TV is on the same satellite where DD Direct+ is. Dish
TV started its service in Pakistan with the collaboration of Budget Communication.
Dish TV was only DTH operator in India to carry the two Turner channels, Turner
Classic Movies and Boomerang. Both the channels were removed from the
platform due to unknown reasons in March 2009. Dish TV uses NSS-6 to
broadcast its programmes. NSS-6 was launched on 17 December, 2002 by
European-based satellite provider, New Skies. Dish TV hopped on to NSS-6 from
an INSAT satellite in July 2004. The change in the satellite was to increase the
channel offering as NSS 6 offered more transponder capacity.

is provided with playback control keys and is being sold with special offers for
existing subscribers. Tata Sky was selected as a SUPER BRAND for the year
2009-2010 by an independent and voluntary council of experts known as Super
brands Council. It is the only Indian DTH to have won this distinction.
Sun Direct
Sun Direct is a DTH satellite television provider in India, using MPEG-4 digital
compression technology, transmitting using INSAT 4B at 93.5E. It is the
country's first MPEG 4 technology DTH service provider. Sun Direct is a DTH
service in India headquartered in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. Sun Direct TV was
registered in February 16, 2005. However, the failed launch of INSAT 4C resulted
in a lack of transponders, delaying the launch. The service was finally launched on
December 2007 after availability of transponders from INSAT 4CR. Because of
the lowest pricing of any DTH in India Sun Direct spread rapidly all over the
country. On December Sun Direct was launched in Mumbai and announced its pan
India launch. By 2009 it became leading DTH provider with 3 million subscribers.
This makes it 4th largest DTH service provider of India. In April 2009 Sun Direct
officially launched its High-Definition service in India.
Sun Direct uses the latest MPEG-4 based technology to increase broadcast
capacity.
Sun Direct provide next-generation services in fast-growing and emerging markets
quickly and efficiently. Sun Direct selected Oracle based on its convergent multi-
service capabilities and proven real-time scalability allowing it to consolidate
billing operations, enables powerful new service offerings and improves visibility
into customer information across services.

Big Tv
Reliance BIG TV is a DTH satellite television provider in India based in Navi
Mumbai, using MPEG-4 digital compression technology, transmitting using
MEASAT-3 91.5east. It is the 5th DTH service launched in India. Reliance BIG
TV limited is a part of Reliance Communications Ltd., a subsidiary of Reliance
Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group founded by the Late Dhirubhai Ambani, the Indian
business tycoon and owned by his son Anil Ambani. BIG TV started operations
from 19 August 2008 with the slogan "TV ho Tho BIG Ho" ("If you have a TV,
make it BIG"). It currently offers close to 200 channelsand many interactive ones,
32 cinema halls (i.e. Pay Per View Cinema Channels) as well as many Radio
channels. The company plans to increase the number of channels in the near future
to 400 and begin High Definition (HD) broadcast. It is the first Pan-India DTH
provider that uses MPEG-4 for broadcasting. There are also plans to introduce
services like i-Stock, i-News and other such interactive services in the future.
Reliance BIG TV was launched on August 19, 2008 with the sole aim of providing
the consumer with quality and enriched home entertainment service at value-driven
pricing. Reliance BIG TV's launch in August was probably the biggest roll-out in
home entertainment ever and deployed the most advanced MPEG4 technology that
enabled them to deliver best quality digital audio-video to the consumer. It also got
prepared for the future when Hi-Definition TV will be launched in India because
only MPEG4 technology can support HD TV and not MPEG2 which is used by the
earlier entrants in the DTH industry.
Reliance BIG TV's retailer network is spread across 100,000 outlets in 6,500 towns
in India. This was literally unheard of in the DTH industry. They had effectively
out-stripped the competition here. When it came to pricing packaging, their
introductory offer stood at Rs. 1,490/- with 3 to 6 months of free subscription.
They also introduced 32 Pay-Per-View Movie Channels, the highest by any DTH
player.
