ABOUT CUSTOMER SATISFACTION:
Customer satisfaction, a business term, is a measure of how products and services supplied by a
company meet or surpass customer expectation. It is seen as a key performance indicator within
business and is part of the four of a Balanced Scorecard.
In a competitive marketplace where businesses compete for customers, customer satisfaction is
seen as a key differentiator and increasingly has become a key element of business strategy.[1]
However, the importance of customer satisfaction diminishes when a firm has increased
bargaining power. For example, cell phone plan providers, such as AT&T and Verizon,
participate in an industry that is an oligopoly, where only a few suppliers of a certain product or
service exist. As such, many cell phone plan contracts have a lot of fine print with provisions that
they would never get away if there were, say, a hundred cell phone plan providers, because
customer satisfaction would be way too low, and customers would easily have the option of
leaving for a better contract offer.
There is a substantial body of empirical literature that establishes the benefits of customer
satisfaction for firms.
A. Introduction
Although companies conduct customer satisfaction research for various reasons, the overall goal
is to help them “stay as close to their customers as humanly possible.”60 Many leading edge
companies and research firms focus on obtaining useful feedback from customers and clients and
converting it into “actionable” steps to improve their performance. Some want feedback from
customers about existing or new products and services. Others want to know how to target their
resources on issues of concern to customers. Still others want to demonstrate a commitment to
listening to their customers. As a by-product, customer feedback can provide actual examples of
good and bad practices for employee training and continuous improvement efforts. The
organization’s objectives define what it wants to learn from customers and guides how the
information is collected. Experts advise that first defining measurable objectives will allow
organizations to “learn the effectiveness of your survey, and it will help you in reinvesting the
information you learned.”62 In general, the research focus is how reliably the organization
fulfills customer satisfaction and what can be done to improve. “The most active verb when you
5
speak in the vocabulary of customer satisfaction is to improve.” How frequently an organization
measures customer satisfaction depends on the nature of its service and what it wants to gain. For
instance, if customers make daily decisions about the services offered, frequent measurement is
appropriate. Many consumer product and service companies need this type of day-to-day or
weekly information.
The National Performance Review (NPR) found that “best-in-business” organizations solicit
feedback from customers before, during, and after service. The methods chosen for measuring
customer satisfaction depend on customer characteristics, time availability, costs, and the
information an organization hopes to gather. Many of the top performing companies identified
by the NPR used sophisticated market research techniques: “Feedback was obtained through
customer focus groups, customer usage and attitude surveys, supplier and partner surveys, and
detailed telephone, mail, and personal interviews. In one case, thousands of customer surveys
were mailed out each week. Another company maintained a detailed database containing all
pertinent facts about its customers’ requirements.”65 Common methods of gathering customer
satisfaction information in the commercial world include 1-800 numbers, comment cards,
telephone surveys, mail-based surveys, focus groups, group interviews, and direct contact
between customers and employees. Recently, online surveys—through pop-up windows, links,
or email invitations—have become popular with many companies. Each method or combination
of methods has advantages and disadvantages. This section describes five strategies for customer
satisfaction research an improvement .
Measuring customer satisfaction
Organizations need to retain existing customers while targeting non-customers.[2] Measuring
customer satisfaction provides an indication of how successful the organization is at providing
products and/or services to the marketplace.
Customer satisfaction is an abstract concept and the actual manifestation of the state of
satisfaction will vary from person to person and product/service to product/service. The state of
satisfaction depends on a number of both psychological and physical variables which correlate
with satisfaction behaviors such as return and recommend rate. The level of satisfaction can also
vary depending on other factors the customer, such as other products against which the customer
can compare the organization's products.

Work done by Parasuraman, Zeithaml and Berry (Leonard L)[3] between 1985 and 1988
delivered SERVQUAL which provides the basis for the measurement of customer satisfaction
with a service by using the gap between the customer's expectation of performance and their
perceived experience of performance. This provides the researcher with a satisfaction "gap"
which is semi-quantitative in nature. Cronin and Taylor extended the disconfirmation theory by
combining the "gap" described by Parasuraman, Zeithaml and Berry as two different measures
(perception and expectation) into a single measurement of performance relative to expectation.
The usual measures of customer satisfaction involve a survey [4] with a set of statements using a
Likert Technique or scale. The customer is asked to evaluate each statement in terms of their
perception and expectation of performance of the service being measured.
Methodologies
This section may contain excessive, poor or irrelevant examples. You can improve the article
by adding more descriptive text. See Wikipedia's guide to writing better articles for further
suggestions. (March 2009)
American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI) is a scientific standard of customer satisfaction.
Academic research has shown that the national ACSI score is a strong predictor of Gross
Domestic Product (GDP) growth, and an even stronger predictor of Personal Consumption
Expenditure (PCE) growth. On the microeconomic level, research has shown that ACSI data
predicts stock market performance, both for market indices and for individually traded
companies. Increasing ACSI scores has been shown to predict loyalty, word-of-mouth
recommendations, and purchase behavior. The ACSI measures customer satisfaction annually for
more than 200 companies in 43 industries and 10 economic sectors. In addition to quarterly
reports, the ACSI methodology can be applied to private sector companies and government
agencies in order to improve loyalty and purchase intent. Two companies have been licensed to
apply the methodology of the ACSI for both the private and public sector: CFI Group, Inc.
applies the methodology of the ACSI offline, and Foresee Results applies the ACSI to websites
and other online initiatives. ASCI scores have also been calculated by independent researchers,
for example, for the mobile phones sector,[5] higher education,[6] and electronic mail.[7]
The Kano model is a theory of product development and customer satisfaction developed in the
1980s by Professor Noriaki Kano that classifies customer preferences into five categories:
7
Attractive, One-Dimensional, Must-Be, Indifferent, Reverse. The Kano model offers some
insight into the product attributes which are perceived to be important to customers. Kano also
produced a methodology for mapping consumer responses to questionnaires onto his model.

INTRODUCTION
Hyundai Motor India Limited (HMIL) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Hyundai Motor
Company, South Korea and is the second largest car manufacturer and the largest passenger car
exporter from India. HMIL presently markets 34 variants of passenger cars across seven models.
The Santro in the B segment, the Getz Prime, i10 and the Premium hatchback i20 in the B+
segment, the Accent and the Verna in the C segment, the Sonata Transform in the E segment and
the Tucson in the SUV segment.
Hyundai Motor India Ltd, continuing with its tradition of being the fastest growing passenger car
manufacturer, registered total sales of 489,328 vehicles in the calendar year (CY) 2008, an
increase of 49.6 percent over CY 2009. In the domestic market it clocked a growth of 22.4

Introduction of organization
percent with 245387 units in 2010, while overseas sales grew by 92.5 percent, with exports
accounting for 243,931 units in 2009
HMIL's fully integrated state-of-the-art manufacturing plant near Chennai boasts of the most
advanced production, quality and testing capabilities in the country. In continuation of its
commitment to provide the Indian customer with global technology, HMIL commissioned its
second plant in February 2010 which produces an additional 300,000 units per annum, raising
HMIL's total production capacity to 600,000 units per annum.
HMIL has invested to expand capacity in line with its positioning as HMC's global export
hub for compact cars. Apart from the expansion of production capacity, HMIL currently has 272
strong dealer networks across India, which will be further bolstered in 2010.
In 2008, HMIL also successfully completed 10 glorious years of operations in India and to
commemorate its achievements, initiated a unique trans-continental drive from Delhi to Paris in

Vision:
To become one of the top five global
automakers. To achieve this daring vision, the
company initiated a far sweeping corporate
restructing program while bolstering its R&D
efforts to produce automobiles that meet every
higher standard of quality, safety and
environmental friendliness.
Making the best use of synergy effects with Kia
Motors, Hyundai Motor Company has set its
sights on providing the finest customer service,
up-to-date technology, flawless quality and the
best value in the industry. In addition, the
company will focus its R&D efforts on the
development of more environment-friendly
technologies, while at the same time more
aggressively implementing its "Sigma 6,"
quality improvement campaign that will earn
the greater trust of its customers and ultimately
contribute to improved business profitability.
New Technologies.
Pristine natural environment is a birthright and
is perhaps the most important legacy we can
bequeath to our children and future
generations. Our efforts to develop 'greener'
technologies are unrelenting as we seek new
ways to protect the planet from further
environmental damage. The company is
placing increasingly greater effort on the
development of environment-friendly power
plants which are powered by a variety of
alternative fuels and which emit less pollution
than conventional combustion engines.
Future car development.
Hyundai Motor Company's ambition to become
one of the top five global automakers would be
impossible to achieve without continuous
investment into the development of future-
oriented concept cars that have come to serve
as barometers of competitiveness, technology
and creativity.
two of its hugely popular i10 Kappa cars. The drive created automobile history by completing a
distance of 10,000km in just 17 days after which the i10s were showcased at the Paris Motor
Show in October. In fact it was at the Paris Motor Show that HMIL first unveiled the Hyundai
i20 and the car received a phenomenal response from the auto enthusiasts across the world.
Hyundai Motor India also accomplished the landmark of producing the fastest 20th lakh cars in
India in 2008.
Like 2009, the year 2010 had also been a significant year for Hyundai Motor India. It achieved a
significant milestone by rolling out the fastest 400,000th export car. Hyundai exported to over 95
countries globally; even as it plans to continue its thrust in existing export markets, it is gearing
up to step up its foray into new markets. 2007 also saw the launch of the i10 and yet another
path-breaking record in its young journey by rolling out the fastest 1,500,000th car.
Hyundai's new model i10 made a clean sweep of all the 'Car of the Year 2008' awards from the
leading automotive magazines and TV channels like BS Motoring, CNBC-TV18 AutoCar,
NDTV Profit Car & Bike India and Overdrive magazine. The i10 was also the choice of the
discerning automotive media of the country as they conferred the prestigious 'Indian Car of the
Year' (ICOTY) award to the i10 as well.
The Santro and the Accent also received the 'TNS Voice of the Customer - 2008' award
for the Premium Compact Car (Santro) and the Entry Mid size Car (Accent). In March 2008 it
achieved yet another milestone by rolling out the fastest 500,000th export car.
In 2007, the Hyundai Verna had also bagged some of the most prestigious awards starting with
the Overdrive magazine’s ‘Car of the Year 2007’, the ‘Best Mid-size Car of the Year’ award
from NDTV Profit Car & Bike India, the ‘Best Value for Money Car’ from CNBC Autocar and
'Performance Car of the Year' from Business Standard Motoring.
Hyundai cars have been a favorite at all awards ceremonies and has won many awards.
The Sonata Embera won the 'Executive Car of The Year 2006' award from Business Standard
Motoring magazine and NDTV Profit Car & Bike India had declared the Tucson as the 'SUV of
The Year 2006'.
Not only this, HMIL has also been awarded the benchmark ISO 14001 certification for its
sustainable environment management practices.

Quality. Brand power. These are the two priorities for Hyundai Motor Company as it prepares
for the future. No longer content to follow and learn, Hyundai is now seeking to lead the motor
industry in shaping the evolution of motor vehicles. With Hyundai's publicly stated goal of
becoming one of the top five carmakers in the world by 2010, the Hyundai brand will require
careful repositioning. Management realizes that achieving this goal will require strong
determination, resolve but, above all, stronger public confidence in the Hyundai name.
It will also carry with it a new set of responsibilities, such as greater transparency in
management and the environmental, social and economic facets of sustainable development. By
publicly announcing a new global environment management body last year, Hyundai reiterated
its commitment to leadership in the social sphere. Hyundai reinforced its place as a top-rated
carmaker by winning the 2003 Global Automotive Shareholder Value Award presented by
PriceWaterhouse Coopers and Automotive News. And for the second consecutive year,
Hyundai captured top honors in the Consumers Satisfaction Survey conducted by J.D. Power
and Associates which also rated the Hyundai Sonata first in its 2002 and 2003 Initial Quality
Survey.
By active implementation of four management policies in 2004, Hyundai will accelerate
the speed of development. First, Hyundai will step up global management by establishing local
support systems across the globe to maintain momentum as a growing global player, expand
overseas manufacturing bases and raise R&D capabilities above the industry standard.
12
Secondly, by repositioning its brand identity to be known as a maker of refined and elegant
automobiles Hyundai will enhance its brand value. And by improving its product development
system Hyundai will maximize the company is value.
Thirdly, Hyundai will maintain its sustainable management capabilities. Hyundai will devote
itself to fulfilling social responsibilities as a global carmaker by development safer and more
environmentally friendly vehicles while respecting fundamental values, striving for ethical
management and expanding contributions to social causes.
Lastly, Hyundai will attach greater importance to human resources. We will expand the
recruitment of engineers and global specialist’s multi-lingual talented individuals who are at
home anywhere in the world.
Hyundai Motor will reinforce its position of strength and confidence by continually improving
its management capabilities.
And by promoting the development of national and international co-prosperity, the company
will raise its net value.
13
SERVQUAL or RATER is a service-quality framework that has been incorporated into
customer-satisfaction surveys (e.g., the revised Norwegian Customer Satisfaction Barometer[8])
to indicate the gap between customer expectations and experience.
J.D. Power and Associates provides another measure of customer satisfaction, known for its top-
box approach and automotive industry rankings. J.D. Power and Associates' marketing research
consists primarily of consumer surveys and is publicly known for the value of its product awards.
Other research and consulting firms have customer satisfaction solutions as well. These include
A.T. Kearney's Customer Satisfaction Audit process,[9] which incorporates the Stages of
Excellence framework and which helps define a company’s status against eight critically
identified dimensions.
For Business to Business (B2B) surveys there is the InfoQuest box[1]. This has been used
internationally since 1989 on more than 110,000 surveys (Nov '09) with an average response rate
of 72.74%. The box is targeted at "the most important" customers and avoids the need for a
blanket survey.

ENGINEERING:
ENGINE:
The Hyundai Santro is powered by the advanced Hyundai Epsilon engine. Employing a patented
cylinder head design with dual inlet valves, tumble ports and pent roof combustion chamber, this
engine produces incredible power at a much lower rpm compared to any other car in its category.
With its unique engine management the computer continuously sensing what's happening inside
the engine, to constantly monitoring the engine performance, makes it amazingly responsive to
your touch and feel.
20
Developed to exacting global specifications at its fully integrated manufacturing plant near
Chennai, the new Hyundai 12V SOHC, inline 4 cylinders, 1086cc Epsilon engine fired by a
Distributor less Ignition System (DLI), delivering an amazing 63Ps of power at 5500rpm and an
impressive torque is 9.8 kgm at 3000 rpm.
The revolutionary DLI System does away with the distributor that wears away and needs
periodic replacement, thereby significantly reducing maintenance cost. The DLI system also
allows for more precise control of spark timing resulting in improved fuel efficiency, reduced
emission and increased power.
The multi-point fuel injection system along with dual intake valves meters the exact amount of
fuel that your engine needs while a Knock Sensor takes care of varying Indian fuel quality.
All these advanced features make the Santro surprisingly fuel efficient and guarantees an engine
efficiency that surpasses Euro II norms.

MAJOR CHALLENGES OF HYUNDAI MOTOR
Hyundai Motor's Chung Challenges Brother's Widow With Engineering Bid Plan
Tweet (11)

o Business Exchange
o Buzz up!
o Digg
Hyundai Motor Group, parent of South Korea’s two largest carmakers, will bid for a $2.5 billion
stake in Hyundai Engineering & Construction Co., setting up a contest between the nation’s
second-richest man and his brother’s widow.
The group, which includes Hyundai Motor Co. and Kia Motors Corp., will submit a letter of
intent today, it said in a regulatory filing in Seoul.
A successful bid would reunite Hyundai Motor with former affiliate Hyundai Engineering, the
nation’s largest builder. Hyundai Engineering’s creditors, including Korea Exchange Bank, will
accept final bids for their combined 35 percent share in the construction company by Nov. 12,
sale arrangers Bank of America Corp.’s Merrill Lynch & Co., Woori Investment & Securities
Co. and Korea Development Bank said last week.
“Buying into Hyundai Engineering is a part of Hyundai Motor’s efforts to develop a new engine
of growth,” said Yim Eun Young, a Seoul-based analyst at Dongbu Securities Co. “It’s not
unreasonable for Hyundai Motor to consider acquiring a stake if the price is reasonable.”
Hyundai Engineering’s market capitalization is about 8.32 trillion won, pricing a 35 percent
stake at about 2.91 trillion won ($2.5 billion), based on today’s closing share price.
Family Ties
57
Hyundai Motor Group will compete with Hyundai Group, which said today it may submit a
preliminary bid for the stake before Oct. 1. Hyundai Group affiliates Hyundai Merchant Marine
Co., Hyundai Elevator Co. and Hyundai Securities Co. said in August they planned to make an
offer.
Hyundai Motor and its affiliates severed ties with the former Hyundai Group in 2000 as part of a
plan to split the business into three operations, each of which was to be managed by one of
founder Chung Ju Yung’s three sons.
The carmaker is controlled by Chung Mong Koo, the son of the founder, while his brother’s
widow, Hyun Jeong Eun, controls the current Hyundai Group. The old Hyundai Group’s
shipbuilding unit, which includes shipyard Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., was also spun off.
Hyundai Motor is involved in the construction business through its unlisted Hyundai Amco Co.
unit and has no plans to merge it with Hyundai Engineering, it said today. The group also said it
would keep the current workforce at Hyundai Engineering after a takeover.
‘Future Growth’
“We decided to bid for Hyundai Engineering in order to strengthen the group’s business portfolio
for future growth,” Hyundai Motor Group said in a regulatory filing today.
While a stake in Hyundai Engineering could help protect the automaker from a sudden
slowdown in the car business, it risks losing focus if it expands into a new industry, said Park
Hwa Jin, a Seoul-based analyst at Shinyoung Securities Co.
“It’s too early to judge how Hyundai Engineering could contribute to Hyundai Motor Group
while it still has many things to accomplish in the car business, such as adding environmentally
friendly models,” Park said.
Hyundai Motor was unchanged at 161,500 won in Seoul trading today, while Hyundai
Engineering gained 4.9 percent.
Hyundai Merchant Marine, South Korea’s second-largest shipping line, jumped to its highest in
almost three years in Seoul trading. The company rose by the daily limit on speculation a battle
58
for Hyundai Engineering may also lead to a fight for control of the shipping line, said Kang
Seong Jin, an analyst at Tong Yang Securities Inc.
Largest Deal
Should Hyundai Motor Group acquire a stake in Hyundai Engineering, the deal may be its
largest since 1998 when it acquired shares in Kia Motor Corp. for 1.2 trillion won in cash and
assumed debt of 2.7 trillion won, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
The group plans to finance the acquisition internally, it said today. Hyundai Motor and Kia had
combined cash and equivalents of 9.2 trillion won as of the end of June, according to their
financial statements.
Hyundai Engineering’s creditors plan to sell their stake for as much as 20 percent more than its
market value, an official at one of the creditors said earlier this month. He declined to be
identified because the information isn’t public.
Hyundai Motor Group hired Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and HMC Investment & Securities Co.
as financial advisers while Kim & Chang was picked as a legal advisor to work on the bid, it said
today in the filing, confirming previous local media reports.

INTRODUCTION OF PROBLEM
The company wants to know more about the customers satisfaction. It‘s very important for every
marketer to know about the satisfaction motives of the customers because it helps them to design
programs to retain customers & increase goodwill of the company. It also helps them to increase
brand loyalty. So it becomes a problem for a company to know about customer satisfaction.
The respondents selected to be interviewed were not always available and willing
to co- operate. Also in some cases the respondents were found to not have the
knowledge, opinion, attitudes or facts related with the products. Moreover our
survey consisted of 182 males and only 15 females which led to gender biasness.
We have taken the sample size of 200, which cannot determine the satisfaction of
the total customers. The sample has been drawn from only from one service
centre.
60
OBJECTIVE OF STUDY
1. Evaluating post service satisfaction of Customers.
2. Developing suggestion docket.
3. Increase the customer satisfaction of the MR Hyundai by providing better services & reduce
service time.
4. Study about the problem in the servicing in order to the satisfaction level of the customers.
5. Study service level of the Hyundai provided to their customers.
6. Study about the need of improvement in existing Service system.

marketer needs to understand fully the needs of the consumer. It helps him to plan his production
and distribution to suit to the needs and convenience of customers‘ .It also helps him to plan
suitable marketing strategies. Thus it is very essential for every marketer to know his customers
satisfactions. Motive is a strong feeling, instinct, desire or emotion that makes a person to do
something. When a motive makes a person to use a product, then it becomes a customer
satisfaction. Thus customer satisfaction means the influence and considerations which makes a
customer to use a particular product. According to D.J. Duncan, ―customer satisfactions are
those influences or considerations which provide the impulse to use, induce action or determine
choice in the purchase of goods and services. Customer satisfactions are mainly two types,
manifest motives and latent motives. Manifest motives are those motives which are known to the
customer and also ready to admit them. But on the other hand latent motives are either known to
the customer. Customer satisfaction can also be calculated as follows
1. Product or patronage motives
2. Emotional and rational motives
3. Inherent and learned motives
62
Product and patronage motives
Product motives: it refers to those influences and reasons which
make the consumer to buy a certain product in preference to another. These explain
why people buy a certain product. Product are of two types:
Primary product motives: These motives induce a consumer to purchase general class of the
product. These motives relate to the basic needs of people like hunger, thirst, sleep

SCOPE OF STUDY
MR Hyundai’ working philosophy is particularly based on “Prepare employees for the future
developments with developments in their personality.” As competition is very much intense
hence the management is working hard for customer relationship to achieve future business
growth.
As it is newly opened organization hence as every other organization it is also facing
some management problems. Management is trying to overcome all these problems and
achieving systematic workings here. Each and every department is distinguished for the
employees. Every employee is having its own designation and job profile and he/she has
to work under that profile only. For each segment of the vehicles, MR Hyundai is having
its separate executives. Departments are connected through local area networks.
The main aim of management here is self development of employees. So that, they can be
empowered for the benefit of the organization and be able to take future responsibilities.
It starts with the joining of the employee in the organization. Initially, they have to work
under various departments till his/her probation period would be over. They have to start
their works from the ground level, so that they can understand the reality of the business
here. Daily reporting at the morning and the evening make them up to date with the
objectives and their future targets. The senior management knows that how they are
doing their work and in which way they have to be directed.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
2.5.1 DESIGNS, TECHNIQUE, AND DATA COLLECTION METHOD
Convenience Sampling was adopted to choose the respondents. The respondents comprised both
male and female of different age groups, from varying income group, coming from different
educational backgrounds.
EXPLORATORY RESEARCH:
As the term suggests, exploratory research is often conducted because a problem has not been
clearly defined as yet, or its real scope is as yet unclear. It allows the researcher to familiarize
him/herself with the problem or concept to be studied, and perhaps generate hypotheses
(definition of hypothesis) to be tested. It is the initial research, before more conclusive research
(definition of conclusive research) is undertaken. Exploratory research helps determine the best
research design, data collection method and selection of subjects, and sometimes it even
concludes that the problem does not exist!
Another common reason for conducting exploratory research is to test concepts before they are
put in the marketplace, always a very costly Endeavour. In concept testing, consumers are
provided either with a written concept or a prototype for a new, revised or repositioned product,
service or strategy. Exploratory research can be quite informal, relying on secondary research
such as reviewing available literature and/or data, or qualitative approaches such as informal
discussions with consumers, employees, management or competitors, and more formal
approaches through in-depth interviews, focus groups, projective methods, case studies or pilot
studies. The results of exploratory research are not usually useful for decision-making by
themselves, but they can provide significant insight into a given situation. Although the results of
qualitative research can give some indication as to the "why", "how" and "when" something
occurs, it cannot tell us "how often" or "how many". In other words, the results can neither be
generalized; they are not representative of the whole population being studied.
2.5.2 PLAN OF ANALYSIS:
The data obtained through questionnaire was processed using the statistical.
65
Additional information obtained from various business journals, magazines, newspapers,
websites etc. are also analyzed.
2.5.3 QUESTIONNAIRES:
Questionnaire is an important step in formulating a research design. Once the researcher has
specified the nature of research design, and determined the scaling procedures, he or she can
develop a questionnaire.
Any questionnaire has three specific objectives.
1. It must translate the information needed into a set of specific questions that the
respondents can and will answer.
2. It must uplift, motivate and encourage the respondent to become involved in the interview,
to cooperate, and to complete the interview. Incomplete interviews have limited
usefulness at best.
3. It should be able to minimize response errors.
It was also important as researchers to respect the samples time and energy hence the
questionnaire was designed in such a way, that its administration would not exceed 4-5 minutes.
These questionnaires were personal administered.
This survey is being conducted to find out that whether you are satisfied with the service
provided by Hyundai Motor India Limited. This survey is purely meant for academic purpose
and not for commercial use.
We would be grateful and appreciate your co-operation in filling this questionnaire.
2.5.5 METHOD DATA ANALYSIS:
We have used the software to analyze our data accurately. After the respondents had filled in the
questionnaires, the data was entered into the software and the analysis was made thereby.
2.5.6 FIELD WORK
Fieldwork plays an important role in collecting the data. I have filled up the questionnaire at MR
HYUNDAI. Some important points which I kept in mind while doing the fieldwork.-
• To make the respondents comfortable before questioning him by introducing myself as
student and ensuring the respondent that all information collected is only for academic
purpose and will be kept confidential
• Ensure that all the questionnaires are filled by the customers only.
• Not to lead a person into any preconceived notion
66
• Not to influence the respondents answers in any way/form.
• Use simple language, so that the technical language does not intimidate the respondent.
67
SAMPLE STATUS
The sample size is 200 which is chosen from the customers visiting the MR HYUNDAI for
getting their car serviced.

DATA PRESENTATION & ANALYSIS
Which car do you currently use?
Interpretation: In our survey, out of 200, 76 of the respondents use Santro followed by 62 of
the respondents use i-10 , 44 of the respondents use Accent. The rest of them were those who use
Getz, Verna, Sonata, and Tucson .
Analysis: When it comes to Hyundai, it is observed that Santro has been the most popular
passenger car followed by i-10. India being a price sensitive market, the main reason behind the
sale of Santro is the price at which they are sold. I-10 being the latest entry has started being
popular. It is then followed by the premium cars like Accent and Sonata and SUV’s like Tucson.

daily followed by 26.5% of the respondents who use 51 to 100 Kms. daily. The rest was
followed by 8.5% who use less than 20Kms. a day followed by only 6.5% who use really long,
i.e., more than 100 Kms. everyday.
Analysis: It has been observed that majority of the respondents travel almost 20 to 50 Kms.
daily. In the busy schedule today, people prefer to travel in their own vehicle rather than relying
on public transport. Only 6.5% of the respondents preferred to drive long, i.e., more than 100
Kms. everyday.
70
How often do you service your car?
Interpretation: 79% of the customers brought in their car for servicing every 4 to 6
months.9.5% serviced their car once in more than 6 months. 8% of their got their car every 2 to 4
months for servicing and only 3.5% of them serviced every 2 months.
Analysis: Majority of the cars were serviced at regular intervals as instructed by the service
manual. i.e., every 4 to 6 months. It also depended on the distance they covered over these
months. Around 3.5% of the cars came for servicing within 2 months. These mainly comprised
of the new vehicles which had come down for the first service.
71
You have availed the services from which of the following service stations?
Analysis: I have limited my survey to MR HYUNDAI only. But there were customers who had
prior serviced their cars at other service centers too. In those cases, I have considered the other
service centre. Majority of 76 respondents serviced their cars at MR HYUNDAI followed by
other service centres like local mechanics or service centre.
Interpretation: Since my survey was limited to MR HYUNDAI, the majority of the respondents
were from MR HYUNDAI.
72
How satisfied are you with the quality of the service?
Interpretation: Most of the respondents were in the category of Extremely satisfied, Quite
satisfied or Slightly satisfied category.75% of the respondents were extremely satisfied with the
quality of service followed by 16.5% respondents who were quite satisfied. 8 out of 200
respondents were slightly satisfied with the quality of service.
Analysis: This is to determine the satisfaction level based on the quality of service. Quality of
the after sales service plays a very important role in making the company a market leader.
73
Rate your satisfaction based on the understated parameters on the following scale at
MR HYUNDAI Service Centre.
Interpretation: 59% of the respondents were satisfied with the service time taken by the service
centre followed by 19.5% who were somewhat satisfied with the service time. Only1% of the
respondents was dissatisfied with the time taken by the service centre.
Analysis: Service Time plays a very important role in satisfying the customers today. In today’s
busy world, no one likes to wait for their cars to get serviced. The faster is the car serviced, the
higher is the level of satisfaction of the customers.
74
Did you ever face a similar problem getting repeated after a service?
Interpretation: 20% of the respondents felt that a similar problem was repeated after a service.
Analysis: It brings a bad reputation to the service centre if a similar problem gets repeated. Thus
the company needs to minimize this in order to increase the satisfaction level of the customers.
75

If similar problem have been facedafter the service?

If yes, whether the complaints were attended and successfully rectified?
Interpretation: 68% of the respondents felt that their complaint was immediately attended and
successfully rectified. 32% of the respondents felt that their complaints weren’t rectified even
after repeated complaints.
Analysis: It is observed that some problems weren’t rectified even after repeated complaints.
Company should seriously take this into consideration and work upon it. It is this factor that
could create a threat to the company.

up for servicing which would save their time and other resources. But it was surprising to know
that most of them were not interested for such a facility.

The research basically focuses on:
Degree of satisfaction based on overall quality of the service.
Degree of satisfaction based on Information provided by the service centre.
Degree of satisfaction based on service time.
Degree of satisfaction based on charges.
Apart from this, I also tried to find out:

was immediately attended to.
If the customers would prefer to have their car picked up for service, and if yes, would
they bear an additional amount.
If the respondents would recommend this service center to others.

RESULTS & FINDINGS
When it comes to Hyundai, it is observed that Santro has been the most popular passenger car. India being a price sensitive market, the main reason behind the sale of Santro is the price at which they are sold.
It has been observed that most of the respondents travel almost 20 to 50 Kms. daily. In the busy schedule today, people prefer to travel in their own vehicle rather than relying on public transport. Only 6.5% of the respondents preferred to drive long, i.e., more than 100 Kms. everyday.

SUGGESTIONS:
After sales service plays a very important role in building up the reputation of an Automobile
company. So this is the area in which the company should mainly focus. I hereby suggest some
measures as a feedback from some of the respondents:
Respondents felt that the service provided by MR HYUNDAI is way better than that of
the other dealers. Hence more company operated workshops are needed to be opened across the
country. It is felt that the other service centres lack genuineness. Customers preferred to come to
this workshop from outstations rather than showing it to the local service or mechanics in the
city.
Few respondents felt that the paint and body was not upto the mark. It is more prone to
rust. This is an area of concern which the company should look upon.
Several customers had to come to the workshop with repeated problems. This needs to
be minimized.
Several customers weren’t happy with the quality of wash in the service centre. This
needs to be checked.
One of the major areas of concern of the respondents was regarding the booking time.
They felt that the booking time is too long.
5Automobile industry today being one of the most competitive industry, it is only after sales
service which could make a company a market leader.
81
LIMITATION OF STUDY:
The sample size of our survey is only 200, which cannot determine the behavior of the total
population. Moreover the sample has been drawn only from one service centre in Noida where
the disposable income of an individual is medium.
The behavior of the customer is unpredictable which may result in the lacking of
accuracy in the data.
It has been observed that Santro is the maximum selling car of Hyundai Motor and most
of the respondents interviewed were Santro Customers, which led to biasness in the
analysis of the survey.
Our survey consisted of 182 males and only 18 females, which led to gender biasness.
82
CONCLUSION:
The report has highlighted the importance of providing the highest customer satisfaction and
how it affects the sales. Though in the month of December, the sales were down, by developing
competitive strategies and by delivering high class products and services, Popular Vehicles and
Services were able to keep their sales momentum. The report emphasizes the importance of
customer loyalty to develop the business.
