CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
Customer Satisfaction
According to Philip Kotler, satisfaction is a persons feelings of pressure or disappointment resulting from products perceived performance (outcome)in relation to his or her expectations. Customer satisfaction is the level of apersons felt state resulting from comparing a products perceivedperformance (outcome) in relation to the persons expectations.
This satisfaction level is a function of difference between perceived
performance and expectations. If the products performance, exceed expectationthe customer highly satisfied or delighted. If the performance matches theexpectations the customer is satisfied. If the products performance fall shorts of expectations the customer is dissatisfied.
Whether the buyer is satisfied after purchase depends on the offersperformance in relation to the buyers expectations.
Saitisfaction is a persons feeling of pleasure or disappointment resulting fromcomparing a products perceivesd performance (or outcomes) in relation to hisor her expectations.
As this definition makes clear saitisfection is a function perceived performanceand expectations. If the performance falls short of expectation the customer issatisfied . if the performance matches the expectations , the customer is highlysatisfied or delighted.
1 Many companies are aiming for high satisfaction because customers who are just satisfied still find it easy to switch when a better offer comes along. Highsatisfaction or delight creates an emotional affinity with brand.
2 Variety of factors that affect customer satisfaction includes product quality,product availability and after sales support such as warranties and services.Customer satisfaction is seen as a proof of delivering a quality product or service.It is believed that customer satisfaction brings sales growth, and market share. Acompany can always increase customer satisfaction by lowering its price or increasing its services but this may result in lower profits. Thus the purpose of marketing is to generate customer value profitability.

3 India is on the threshold of a new millennium. India chose for global economy,exposingher to winds of change in the market place, which has expanded vastlyand become fiercely competitive. In the changed environment, decision makersview the marketing concept as the key to success. Marketing in practice has tomanage products, pricing, promotion and distribution.
4 A successful product can be developed by exploding these opportunities.While delivering the value of the consumer we make use of marketing support.This support is based on the knowledge of consumers and distribution. Marketingsupport both at the introduction of products and maturing is considered
5 Marketing, as suggested by the American Marketing Association is "anorganizational function and a set of processes for creating, communicating anddelivering value to customers and for managing customer relationships in waysthat benefit the organization and its stakeholders".
6 The two major factors of marketing are the recruitment of new customers(acquisition) and the retention and expansion of relationships with existingcustomers (base management). Marketing methods are informed by many of thesocial, particularly psychology, sociology, and economics. Anthropology is also asmall, but growing, influence. Market research underpins these activities.Through advertising, it is also related to many of the creative arts.
7 For a marketing plan to be successful, the mix of the four "Ps" 1 i.e.product, price, place, promotion must reflect the wants and desires of theconsumers in the target market. Trying to convince a market segment tobuy something they don't want is extremely expensive and seldom
successful. Marketers depend on marketing research, both formal andinformal, to determine what consumers want and what they are willing topay for. Marketers hope that this process will give them a sustainablecompetitive advantage. Marketing management is the practical applicationof this process. The offer is also an important addition to the 4P's theory.

LIMITATION OF THE STUDY
Carrying the survey was a general learning experience for us but wealso faced some problems, which are listed here :
1- The method of data collection through questionnaires is relativelymore time consuming and slowest of all, specially when the sample is largeand recalls upon respondent are necessary.
2- Generally the respondents were busy in their work and were notinterested in responding rightly.
3- Most respondents were not maintaining proper knowledge of various services provided by the company, so they were unableto provide exact information
4- Some of the respondents were using the service first time of their company and they were not able to properly differentiateamong their product.
5- The method of data collection is an expansive method speciallywhen large and widely spread geographical location is taken.
6- The result would be based on the answer obtained from fiftyrespondents only because of time constraint.

Today the companies are intent on building stronger bonds with their customers and more stress is being laid on retaining the customers rather than acquiring the new ones. The charges for the services offered being moreor less the same; the competition lies in providing better services to thesubscribers.
