Human beings have a tendency to behave artificially when they know that they are being observed. 3. Subjectivity is the main limitation of MR. It is very difficult to verify the research results. 4. The MR projects generally take longer time. The time by which the research results are presented market situation also undergoes a change. 5. The lack of appropriate training to researcher leads to misinterpretation of questions to be asked for data collection.

It now enjoys the distinction of being the largest Indian F.M.C.G. company and is poised to become a true Indian multinational. The phenomenal . Dr. S.K. Burman lays the foundation of what is today known as Dabur India Limited. Starting from a small shop in Calcutta, he began a direct mailing system to send his medicines to even the smallest of villages in Bengal. The brand name Dabur is derived from the words Da for Daktar or doctor and bur from Burman. progress has been many milestones.

CHANGE IN MARKETING MIX OF DABUR 1. PRODUCTS The company has decided to enter businesses of soups and tomato puree under the Hommade brand and fruit drinks under Coolers. the all companies are trying to cover the market by launching the new product therefore Dabur is also trying to cover the marker with the launch of `Coolers', a fruit-based beverage in a ready-todrink format, Dabur Foods Limited on Thursday introduced its new brand in seven years. After major success of its
`Real' brand of fruit juices, through `Coolers' the company hopes to corner a chunk of beverages market that protects from excessive effects of heat during summer. The company invested Rs. 12 crores for the development of the new brand, which will be available in three variants Aam Panna, Pomegranate and Watermelon while Jamun drink will be launched shortly. `Coolers' brand of products will be 25-30 per cent cheaper than the `Real' juices. The new offering will be initially available in top 30 towns and 50,000 outlets. In the second phase, the distribution network would be expanded to 50 towns and one lakh outlets. The company enjoys 55 per cent market share in the Rs. 120-crore fruit juice market.
Dabur is planning to expand: Aiming to tap the fast growing home cleaning products market in the country, homegrown FMCG major Dabur is planning to expand its range of kitchen and home cleaners and freshners.
Dabur launches Hajmola Pudina: As I have mentioned in the previous page that Dabur launched the Hajmola Pudina In a bid to push the growth of its Hajmola brand, homegrown FMCG company Dabur India has extended the digestive range with the launch of a new variant - Hajmola Pudina. Further, the company also plans to undertake a host of
consumer connects initiatives - by way of tie-ups with Highway Dhabas - to increase frequency of consumption by promoting post-meal consumption. 2. PRICE Price is one of the most effective marketing tools to promote a business because price conveys image, affects demand, and can help target a market segment. ... Every marketing strategy will have its own related pricing strategy. After running as a family business for over 100 years, when in late 1990s, the management of the Dabur was handed over to a team of professional managers, the new management faced a gigantic task of improving performance in several critical areas. In particular, working capital and cost management required urgent attention as the company's performance in these areas had been far from satisfactory. The then prevailing current ratio of 3:2 and quick ratio of 2:4 were considered too high and indicative of heavy unnecessary investments in working capital that would have a negative effect on company's profitability.
Efforts to improve the working capital efficiency were met with stiff resistance from various quarters, but finally yielded results. The case study discusses the measures taken to improve the
working capital and cost management performance, and how with concerted efforts the management turned around a highly inefficient working capital management into one of the most efficient in the FMCG sector of the Indian industry. In fact, the company seemed to have taken the matter to the other extreme of negative working capital, with the current ratio declining to 0:8 and the quick ratio to just 0.4 in 200405. 3. PLACE Shopkeepers selling Dabur India's consumer products would now learn marketing through roleplays staged by professional actors at their shops. As part of a recent initiative titled Astra, advanced sales training for retail ascendance, FMCG major has recruited 75 sales and HR managers across the country who would educate over 2,000 distribution channel partners of the firm about the complexities of sales and distribution through the audio-visual medium. Dabur is targeting sales growth of above 15 per cent after implementing Astra, which was unveiled in May, and expects nearly 40 per cent growth in sales through modern trade and institutions, like hotels. The company also will keep a tab on its performance on a monthly and quarterly basis. Dabur has a distribution reach of 25 lakh retail outlets across the country. About 75 per cent of the company's sales come form rural areas, hence, it has created the
Astra training consultancy module in five vernacular languages, Bengali, Tamil, telungu, Malayalam and Kannada. The company also expects rise in consumer spending in the rural areas and plans to spread the initiative in the rural market. and distribution models. Under Astra, Dabur has categorised its sales and distribution channels into finer segments, such as key grocers, mass grocers, chemist, wholesale, small outlet and modern trade. The programme will address specific needs and expectations of each channel in the areas such as, trade activation programmes, trade promotion programmes, brand/SKU focus, merchandising and managing channel conflict. Astra is a step ahead of Dare, driving achievement of retail excellence, introduced by the company in 2006. Dare was aimed at leveraging Dabur's brands performance in modern retail. Astra will encompass all the distribution channels including modern retail. 4. PROMOTION DABUR is focusing on the customer service

8%
92%
INTERPRETATION It was observed that 8% of the retailers dont keep honey at al while 92% of the retailers do keep honey.
PRODUCT PROFILE
In its generic form, honey is a wonder product. If in western homes it is a term of endearment, in India, honey is traditionally seen as a health syrup. No company in the organized sector had seen business opportunity in honey, till the Dabur India Limited decided to source honey in large volumes from apiculturalists (bee -hive farmers) and market it, the company introduced branded honey in glass jars to the Indian market about a decade ago. The only big ogranisation selling honey at that time was khadi gram udyog that too unbranded produce from villages to the urban markets. Dabur found that the demand is low. Honey's usage was restricted to the world of therapy; used as a cough palliative, a skin conditioner or alternately as a base ingredient for other ayurvedic formulations. Dabur made a start of mass marketing its honey. By flowing honey through its distribution stream, all that the company had
achieved was placing the product within the urban consumer's reach. By the late 1980's, small regional brands had started getting stronger, although they were confined to small pockets by their lack of a wide distribution mechanism. This posed a danger. Other brands- Natural way (Golden Meadows), Allied's and Mehson's among them had started gaining recognition in the branded honey market. And some more were on their way in, some with fancy packaging to target the upmarket buyer. The small marketers were selling on price, which meant trouble for Dabur. 2004, Dabur Honey took to national level advertising for the first time, placing the brand on the purity platform. Growth came, at about 20 per cent, that was not satisfactory. In the year 2005, Dabur gave the brand's ad account to enterprise. At that time Dabur's ad spend for honey was a piffling Rs. 10-15 lakhs a year. It changed the traditional perception of Indian consumer about honey as a medicine to tasty, nutricious food on the breakfast table.

cnclusion
Taking into consideration the Dabur Honey which has market share of 66% (in value) and 44% (in volume). Its
annual sales are approximate 40 crores per annum. The total market of honey is 100 crores. The dabur honey was relaunched in 1994 as food items. There has been 12% in increase in sales from the last year, which is a positive sign. The company is now a days offering it as a food. It is being widely distributed and lot of money being spent on advertising and sales promotion. Reminder Advertising is important to remind the target market about the existence of the product.
RESEARCH OBJECTIVES
RESEARCH DESIGN
A research design is simply a plan or framework for a study that is used in collecting and analyzing the data. This framework is to ensure that relevant information is collected and that too depending upon the objectives of the study. The research design can be classified into three categories-Exploratory, Descriptive and Casual. Exploratory research seeks to discover new relationships, emphasis on discovery of ideas. This research is used when very little is known about the problem being examined. The purpose of this type of research is to extract new insight into problem. The research design used for the project at hand is of exploratory in nature. Descriptive research attempts to determine the frequency with which something occurs or the relationship between two phenomenons. A casual research design is often adopted in order to discover and determine the cause and effect relationship.
SOURCES OF INFORMATION
It is necessary to prepare a list of the information, which is needed to attain the objectives. 1. PRIMARY DATA It consists of the original information or new data gathered specifically for the purpose. Questioning and observing are the two basic methods of collecting primary information.
2. SECONDRY DATA It consists of information that already exists somewhere having been collected for another purpose.
QUESTIONNAIRE DESIGN
While proceeding to design questionnaire, two key assumptions to be followed are: 1. The researcher assumes that the respondent is able and willing to communicate the desired data either verbally to an interviewer or in writing on a questionnaire form. 2. The researcher must assume that the information he/she obtains from the interview and the questionnaire is essentially about the respondent's verbal or written behavior. While constructing a questionnaire, the researcher should keep in mind two things: (I) (II) The objectives of the research project. The respondent's point of view.
STRUCTURED, DISGUISED TECHNIQUES The structured -disguised questionnaire emerged as an attempt to secure the advantages of disguise in revealing subconscious, hidden motives and attitude along with the advantage in coding and tabulation common to structured approaches. The questions seeking the information were used. The main aim was to analyze the market of honey which was done by making questionnaires for the retailers, kids and ladies (mothers) who could give the maximum information. The type of questions used were closed-ended, open ended , multiple choice and dichotomous questions. A pilot survey was made to test the feasibility of the questionnaires.

THREATS
More and more branded honey is available in the market with five or six flavours. Competitive brands are giving more margin because of which retailers are least interested in selling the product. Complaints like granulation of honey (i.e. small sugar crystals) is affecting the sales. Foreign branded honey is now available in the market and is liked by the consumers. In areas like South Delhi, customers dont consider price to purchase market. the honey and the foreign honey is capturing the
OPPORTUNITIES
New flavours of honey can be introduced. New packaging like sachet and plastic packaging can be launched. In Ghaziabad, markets for expensive / Foreign honey has been developed as yet, so there are only few brands including local brands among which only Dabur is doing well.
CONCLUSION
This survey has revealed that the Ayurvedic industry is a very complex industry with a manufacturing process, which is sensitive and requires expert supervision. Dabur Honey also enjoy good brand loyalty. Fluctuating demand of Ayurvedic medicines is a problem with which companies have to contend. As in the case of Asavarishtas which enjoy good demand during season changes and warm months low demand in the other seasons , the demand is not met well by companies which fail to accurately predict this pattern and hence end up producing insufficient quantities when the demand is high and end up with excess inventory as the demand wanes. The companies fail to review their targets accurately to coincide with the decreasing levels of demand. Dabur Honey is under constant threat from it competitors and loosing its market share. Due to an inadequate budget for advertising, the company has been unable to promote and create a consumer base of its own. The Dabur Honey brand is a major player in the market. Though due to inefficient distribution and sales network its true potential is yet to be realized.
More detailed information about honey can be given on the companys Internet site. New packaging like Sachet or plastic packaging can be introduced. Plastic packaging for 1 kg. Honey was demanded by the consumers. Sales promotion gifts like ball, Badminton Racket, Pocket chess, small toys, cars etc can be given for kids. The main competitors are Mehsons, Natural way, Himani which are not the corporate brands as Dabur. The Brand like Mehsons can be purchased to kick it out from the market. Foreign brands like Capilano, Lagneese, Fragata are now available in the market and doing well in posh markets like South Delhi and sector 18, Noida where people dont consider the price to purchase the honey. Dabur can merge with the foreign brand and can do marketing for it. An awareness programme can be done in the schools like Mothers pride where gifts and posters can be given to the kids. Sales cam also be promoted by distributing small sachets and gifts to the children on the places like Appu Ghar through the Joker.
So, late last year, it decided to narrow down its target audience from housewives to kids while continuing its strategy to position honey as a food product. The aim: to grow the market by promoting large scale/frequent consumption. The result from the second stage of repositioning, says Duggal, are currently being evaluated. "The real results will emerge now but the immediate challenge is to maintain the current growth rate," says Duggal. Besides the TV advertising campaign-honey khaake dekho jiDabur has supported the new positioning plank with various below the line activities targeting kids. These include giving away fun freebies such as comics and animal faced masks with 200 gm, 500gm and 1kg Dabur Honey. Besides, the company has undertaken a plantation awareness programme in more than 200 schools in Delhi. As part of the project, Dabur contacted more than 55,000 children of class II and III and provided booklets and poster to them. Dabur Honey claims to be the leader in the branded Honey market with a more than 50 per cent market share. The estimated size of the market is around Rs. 100 crore with a large unorganized sector. The brand expects to achieve a turnover of Rs. 45 crore in the current financial year. The brand spends about Rs. 4 crore on advertising.
12 per cent, Hajmola by 13 per cent and Ulgel, an antacid in ethnic flavour increased by 20 per cent. It's key pharmaceutical brand new Livfit recorded a growth of more than 100 per cent, the release added. During the quarter, the company made an additional investment of $ 3 million in Dabur Oncology Plc, the subsidiary set up in the UK to manufacture and market oncology formulations for European and US market.
