Executive Summary
This Term report focus on cigarette brands preference of consumers according to “AICOL”
People belonging to same age group, income, consumption of cigarettes, occupation &
location prefer same brand of cigarettes.
Knowing the Correct market segment of each cigarette brand is very important
Promotion Strategies
Advertising and all other kinds of promotion methods and awareness creation so that the
company will achieve its financial and commercial objectives by first knowing what add
will attract their consumer best and so on.
Placement Strategies
It’s basically creating a favorable image in the minds of the consumers about the product
and/or the company; let us say for example here, what the consumers think about wills
flake,gold flake,navy cut.
Price Strategies
At what price that the consumers can and will buy these brands. Is the current price suitable
for the current and potential customers? What price is suitable for what group? Loyal to
what brand?
I am pleased to certify that Mr.ABDUL ZAVED has satisfactorily carried out a research
work, under my supervision on the topic of “Cigarette Brand Preference of consumer
according to Age, Income, Consumption, Occupation & Living.”
CHAPTER 1
1.1 INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW
Let us define the term which we created for the understanding and easiness of the work at
hand and to facilitate the work for us and for the respondents a like and the word is:
“AICO” Consisting of these followings:
A= Age
I= Income
C= Consumption 1
O=Occupation
Contradicting to the statement “consumer preference differs from person to person” I found
that people according to AICOL use same cigarette brand. Means usually consumer from
alike set has same psychology and same kind of products usually satisfies them and
provides them value.
A Questionnaire was designed by keeping respondents in mind & their precious time that is
why it consists of only 9 questions because we already studied that the questionnaire
should not be too long and too short and we followed the teachings of our teacher. But
these 9 questions are enough to provide necessary information according to our hypothesis.
1
During my research Questionnaire filling, the respondents responded very comfortably and
easily and cooperated well with us.
I selected my respondents randomly and visited different places like: Offices, Collages,
Shopping malls, Parks, Different Pan shops & Super Markets in different locations of
guwahati city.
The problem statement of my research is “to determine the consumer usage pattern of
cigarette according to AICOL i.e Age, Income, Consumption, Occupation .
It is usually thought that people from same AICO use or prefer same kind of brands, same
kind of products. It has also been observed that people from same AICO have similar likes
and dislikes, they have same psychology. I have taken this topic as this will help me in
understanding the behavior of consumers who belongs to similar group of people. And will
also help me to prove this thinking right or wrong.
Scope of the research is to test out and confirm the known statements and study the
consumption pattern in india. I have selected six hypotheses, among which five are to
prove basically brand preference according to age, brand preference according to
income, cigarette brand preference according to consumption pattern, cigarette brand
preference according to occupation and cigarette brand preference according to
location, the last hypotheses is the consumption rate according to consumer’s
occupation. The last hypothesis is set to check the consumption rate according to
occupation. Weather occupation and consumption have any relation or not?
1.5 Conclusion:
4 hypothesis were set are as follow
1) Consumers belong to same AGE group prefer same brand of cigarettes.
1.6 Limitations:
This study was conducted only in GUWAHATI. Due to the fact that convenience sample
was used; the findings cannot be generalized and would be low in external validity. Sample
size was selected as 263, focusing on people who are from different organizations and
different areas of GUWAHATI.
I tried to make this study comprehensive but there is always a possibility of getting wrong,
inadequate answers from few of the respondents. Therefore my results may give an idea but
cannot be 100 % correct. As in researches at bigger level respondents are paid or
compensated for their time and to provide correct answers but for this small level research
it may not be the case.
CHAPTER 2
LITERATURE REVIEW
The focus of this chapter is to provide insights to the theories that have shaped the
understanding of consumer cigarette consumption, their brand preferences according to age,
income, consumption, occupation and location.
Given the focus of this research study, it is important to have a sound understanding of tobacco
industry and usage patterns on international and national level.
2.1 INTRODUCTION:
Tobacco is a plant grown for its leaves, which are smoked, chewed, or sniffed for variety of
effects. It is considered as addiction substance because it contains the chemical nicotine.
Cigarette is a small role of finely cut tobacco for smoking, enclosed in a wrapper of thin paper.
It is addiction which means physical or psychological need for a habit- forming substance, such
as a drug or Alcohol. In physical addiction, the body adapts to a substance being used and
gradually requires increased amounts to reproduce the effects originally produced by smaller
doses. Everyone knows smoking is bad for them, but millions cannot overcome the addiction.
Let us see the work done in the relevant topics world wide
Smoking may not be good for health but it is certainly good for numerous national
economies around the world, and INDIA is no exception. This article intends to highlight
the important role tobacco plays in the economics of the country, nothing more nothing less.
By ABDUL ZAVED.
MAY,2011,
Tobacco industry — growing, manufacturing, distribution and retailing — contributed 4.4 per
cent or over Rs 27.5 billion to the total GDP of INDIA including Rs 15.17 billion, including Rs
14.54 billion in excise duty and sales tax, in 1997. It is the single biggest contributor of excise
duty, six-times than that from cotton yarn. Over 5 per cent of all taxes collected in the country
comes from the tobacco industry. It employs over one million people directly or indirectly
which in terms of full-time equivalent jobs means 312,500 jobs supporting some 1.2 million
persons.
The area under tobacco cultivation increased by 30 per cent during 1990-91 to 1998-99 —
from 44,000 hectares to 57,000 hectares. The production has increased even more significantly
during the same period — by 145 per cent from 75,000 tonnes to 109,000 tonnes. The value-
added sector, the cigarette production, depicted a far more unproportionate increase of 72 per
cent — from 29.8 billion sticks to 51.5 billion sticks during the same period.
Tobacco is the only crop grown in INDIA whose yield is well above the world average and
matches the per hectare yield in the US and other developed countries — an average yield of
1,900 kilograms per hectare. Tobacco industry — growing, manufacturing, distribution and
retailing employs over one million persons directly or otherwise. This translates in the full time
equivalent of 312,500 jobs supporting approximately 1.2 million persons. Manufacturing
employs the highest number of persons — 35 per cent followed by 33 per cent by growing and
32 per cent in distribution and retail.
CHAPTER – 3
Defines sampling as, “the process by which a researcher selects a sample of participants for a
study from the population of interest”.
A total of 263 questionnaires were sent manually to respondents and a total of 263 completed
the questionnaire but responses of some of the questions are ambiguous
For the purpose of this study a quantitative methodology was followed and a questionnaire was
used as the measuring instrument.
3.3 PROCEDURE FOLLOWED TO GATHER DATA
This section describes how the researcher gathered the relevant data for this study. Although
known to the population, the researcher relied on random sampling to obtain access to the
sample. The researcher has direct contact with the population and therefore had more influence
in terms of creating a sense of urgency to complete the questionnaires.
Each respondent was given a time of 15 minutes to understand and fill the questionnaire. While
making a questionnaire I tried my best to make it as easy as possible so that there will be no
difficulty for respondents to fill the questionnaire.
3.4 STATEMENT OF THE HYPOTHESES
5) Consumers belong to same AGE group prefer same brand of cigarettes.
The statistical programme used for the analyses and presentation of data in this research is the
Statistical Package for the Social Sciences SPSS. The descriptive statistics utilized are based on
frequency tables and graphical illustrations to provide information on key demographic
variables in this study. This is followed with presentation of the inferential statistics based on
examination of each hypothesis formulated for the research. The upper level of statistical
significance for null hypothesis testing was set at 5%. All statistical test results were computed
at the 2-tailed level of significance in accordance with the non-directional hypotheses presented
.
3.5.2 STATISTICAL ANALYSES
The “statistical analyses are used to describe an account for the observed variability in the
behavioural data.” This involves the process of analysing the data that has been collected. Thus
the purpose of statistics is to summarise and answer questions about the behavioural variability
that was obtained in the research. Statistical analyses involve both descriptive and inferential
statistics.
Descriptive statistics are used to describe and summarise the behaviour of the respondents in a
study. They refer to the ways in which a large number of scores or observations are reduced to
interpretable numbers such as averages and percentages.
The descriptive statistics utilized in this study are based on frequency tables and graphical
illustrations to provide information on key demographic variables, as well as the means and
standard deviations for the responses on the Work Motivation and Satisfaction Questionnaire.
Inferential statistics are used to draw conclusions about the reliability and generalisability of
the findings.The inferential statistics are used to assist in answering questions such “How likely
is it that my findings are due to random extraneous factors rather than to the variables of central
interest in the study? How representative are the findings of the larger population from which
the sample was taken?” In order to test the research hypotheses, the inferential tests used
include the Pearson Product-Moment Correlation Coefficient, Multiple Regression Analysis
and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA).
3.6 METHODOLOGIY
The methodology we have adopted for the subject study is briefly discussed below
3.6.1 SELECTING BRAND NAMES FOR THE QUESTIONNAIRE
Pan shops, super markets, retailer stores and cigarette consumer were asked about brand
names & then it was put in to the questionnaire. So that respondents can identify his\her
brand of choice on this question and if their brand of choice is not there he\she can reply on
the option of “others”
Data was collected through a questionnaire which was distributed on different locations
and some were filled or noted down through an informal interview 2 form some of
respondents.
Our Questionnaire was based on eight different questions, out of which five were related
to personal information (gender, age, occupation, income & location); a Nominal Scale was
used to measure the personal data. The other remaining three were related to independent
variables like: Do you smoke? How long have you been smoking? Which brand do you
smoke? & how many cigarettes do you smoke per day).
