COMPANY PROFILE

NAME: Hero MotoCorp Limited

REGISTERED ADDRESS: The Grand Plaza,


Plot no.- 2, Nelson Mandela Road,
Vasant Kunj- Phase- ii,
New Delhi- 110 070, India

HISTORY:
The company was initially incorporated as Hero Honda as a joint venture between Hero Cycles
of India and Honda of Japan. This company was established as Hero Honda Motor Limited in
1984 at Dehradun, India. "Hero" is the brand name used by the Munjal brothers for their
flagship company, Hero Cycles Ltd. Munjal family and Honda group both owned 26% stake
in the Company.
During the 1980s, the company introduced motorcycles that were popular in India for their fuel
economy and low cost. A popular advertising campaign based on the slogan 'Fill it – Shut it –
Forget it' that emphasised the motorcycle's fuel efficiency helped the company grow at a
double-digit pace since inception. In 2001, the company became the second largest two-
wheeler manufacturing company in India and globally.
In June 2012, Hero MotoCorp approved a proposal to merge the investment arm of its parent
Hero Investment Pvt. Ltd. with the automaker. This decision came 18 months after its split
from Hero Honda.

The history of this company has two major phases. They are:
1. TERMINATION OF HONDA JOINT VENTURE AND THE RENAMING:
Under the joint venture Hero Group could not export to international markets and the
termination would mean that Hero Group could now export. From the beginning, the Hero
Group relied on their Japanese partner Honda for the technology in their bikes. So, by
December 2010, the board of directors of the Hero Honda Group had decided to terminate
the joint venture between Hero Group of India and Honda of Japan in a phased manner.
The Japanese automaker exited the joint venture through a series of off-market transactions
by giving the Munjal family. Honda, wanting to focus only on its independent fully owned
two-wheeler subsidiary- Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India (HMSI), exited Hero Honda.
The rising differences between the two partners gradually emerged as an irritant.
Differences had been brewing for a few years before the split over a variety of issues,
ranging from Honda's reluctance to fully and freely share technology with Hero as well as
Indian partner's uneasiness over high royalty pay-outs to the Japanese company. Another
major irritant for Honda was the refusal of Hero Honda to merge the company's spare parts
business with Honda's new fully owned subsidiary, HMSI.
2. FORMATION OF NEW COMPANY:
The name of the company was changed from Hero Honda Motors Limited to Hero
MotoCorp Limited on 29 July 2011. The new brand identity and logo of Hero MotoCorp.
The logo was revealed on 9 August 2011 in London.
On 21 April 2014, Hero MotoCorp announced its plan on a ₹254 crore joint venture with
Bangladesh's Nitol-Niloy Group in the next five years to set up a manufacturing plant in
Bangladesh. The plant started production in 2017 under the name "HMCL Niloy
Bangladesh Limited". Hero MotoCorp owns the 55% of the manufacturing company and
rest 45% is owned by Niloy Motors (A subsidiary of Nitol-Niloy Group).

PRODUCTION MANAGEMENT

INTRODUCTION:

Production management means planning, organising, directing and controlling of production


activities. Production management deals with converting raw materials into finished goods or
products. It brings together the 6M's i.e., men, money, machines, materials, methods and
markets to satisfy the wants of the people.
Talking about Hero, Hero MotoCorp's manufacturing facilities are based on the core principle
of sustainable development, as the company remains committed to maintaining the highest
ecological standards.

SCOPE OF PRODUCTION MANAGEMENT:

Talking about Hero, they are one of the leading producers in the market of two wheelers. Also,
they are the "world no.1 two-wheeler company” in terms of unit sales in a calendar year and
the company continues to maintain this position to date.
Hero MotoCorp currently has an annual combined production capacity of around 9 million
units of two-wheelers and annual sales of 5.8 million units and is also expanding in
international markets by associating with ace golfer Tiger Woods.

MANUFACTURING FACILITIES:

Hero MotoCorp has eight globally benchmarked manufacturing facilities, including six in India
and one each in Colombia and Bangladesh.
In India, the facilities are located at Dharuhera and Gurugram in the northern Indian state of
Haryana; at Chittoor in Andhra Pradesh; at Haridwar in the hill state of Uttarakhand; at
Neemrana in the northern state of Rajasthan, and at Halol in the coastal state of Gujarat in
western India.
The Company’s manufacturing facilities at Neemrana and Halol have been aptly called the
‘Garden Factories’, for their various measures, which have redefined green manufacturing. The
new manufacturing facility of Hero MotoCorp is coming up at Chittoor, in the southern Indian
state of Andhra Pradesh.
The facility in Colombia is located at Villa Rica in Cauca province and at Jessore in
Bangladesh, situated in the southwestern region of the country.
PLANT LAYOUT:

At Hero MotoCorp they believe in sound and sustainable environmental practices. Since
inception they have cared for the environment by launching four stroke motorcycles in the era
when two stroke two wheelers were popular. Hero MotoCorp has introduced Green initiatives
in the organisation in Product Development, Manufacturing, Supply Chain and all the
functions. They have also taken several initiatives to reduce Carbon, Water & Waste footprint.
Hero MotoCorp has five manufacturing facilities based at Dharuhera, Gurugram, Neemrana,
Haridwar, and Halol. These plants together have a production capacity of over 76 lakh (7.6
million) 2-wheelers per year. Hero MotoCorp has a sales and service network with over 6,000
dealerships and service points across India. It has a customer loyalty program since 2000, called
the Hero Honda Passport Program which is now known as Hero GoodLife Program.

MAKING OF THE PRODUCT:

"Gradually we will develop our own full-scale R&D facility to make products for global market
on our own. The multiple technology and engineering would leapfrog to the next level even as
we internally enhance our R&D to make products for trans-continental markets," says Mr.
Munjal.
Hero MotoCorp is also looking beyond the conventional. The company is "seriously working
on commercialising' the concept hybrid scooter "Leap", which it showcased at the Auto Expo
in Delhi in January.
Following is the basic process done by Hero:
• Hero-MotoCorp manufactures only Fuel Tanks,
• Do the Paint job,
• Prepare the Chassis
• Assembly of engine
• Engine & other parts are collected in basket Parts are installed on the chassis in the
assembly line
RAW MATERIALS AND ITS PROCUREMENT:

Hero MotoCorp reported a surprise drop in first-quarter net profit a higher raw material costs
hurt the margins of India's largest two-wheeler maker. Hero, the erstwhile partner of Japan's
Honda motor, said profit in the quarter ended in June stood at 9.09 billion rupees [$132
million]. Net sales rose more than 10% to 88.10 billion rupees. The company sold about 2.11
million motorcycles and scooters during the period, compared with 1.85 million units a year
earlier.
Analysts had expected Hero to post a profit of 10.10 billion rupees, according to Bloomberg
poll. The industry has been adversely affected by the volatility in commodity price4s, Pawan
Munjal, Hero chairman and managing director, said in a statement.
Earlier this month, the company said it was raising the prices of its scooters and motorcycles
to partly offset the input cost.
Hero's weak results came even as the Indian two-wheeler market is witnessing a healthy growth
thanks to a pick-up rule demand. According to brokerage Motilal Oswal, the domestic two-
wheeler industry is expected to grow at an average rate of 10% until fiscal year 2022. Hero
MotoCorp receives half its sales volume from rural India.
"Despite these challenges, the industry will maintain the growth momentum during the rest of
the fiscal, with consumption expected to remain high on the back of the normal monsoon and
the upcoming festive season." Munjal said.

INVENTORY MANAGEMENT:

For the inventory control, the Hero MotoCorp company still uses the ERP systems integrate
with vendor management in order to maximize use of inventory in order to produce the
maximum profit from the small amount of inventory investment.
The company's excellent long-term relationship has been responsible for trouble-free
production and sustained expansion for capacity, increasing localization, efficient outsourcing,
cost and inventory control. In terms of efficiency, the company is able to access 70% of the
materials by value at zero-inventory. All this is done by integrating the ERP software.
Functional Strategies/ Objectives of inventory management at Hero MotoCorp:
• Evolve and implement a scientific inventory control system to achieve optimization of
inventory levels.
• Standardize and improve equipment design.
• Create and sustain computer culture.
• Bring more common items under centralized procurement system to get better control.
• Preservation of materials to avoid damages/ deterioration during storage.
• Improvement in purchase procedure for reduction in procurement lead time.
WASTE MANAGEMENT:

Since inception, Hero have cared for the environment by launching four stroke motorcycles in
the era when two stroke two wheelers were popular. In the endeavour we have always been
blessed and guided by our chairman Emeritus Dr. Brij Mohan Lal that "We must give back to
the society from whom we generate our wealth."
As leaders in the automotive industry, they fully realized their responsibility to the fast-
changing industrial environment and understand our role in sustainable development of the
Nation. Hero MotoCorp has introduced green in the organization in product development,
manufacturing supply chain and all the functions. At Hero they have taken several initiatives
to reduce carbon, water and waste footprint.

MARKETING MANAGEMNET

INTRODUCTION:

The principal task of marketing management is to fulfil the aspirations of the consumers. It
is thus imperative to understand what the consumers want; how they make the various
choice decisions; or what are their sources of information and influence process etc. In the
process, an organisation can identify new opportunities in the market; evaluate and monitor
marketing actions; and in general, evolve better marketing programme to serve the interests
of the consumer. Thus, marketing research acts as the link between the consumer and the
marketer.
Hero, which has annual sales of 5.8 million units, is already one of the top marketing
spenders in India with influential brand ambassadors. However, Hero is also expanding in
international markets by associating with ace Golfer Tiger Woods. It is thus evident over
the years that Hero invests heavily in its marketing and branding, by engaging in
partnerships with high-profile celebrities and spending on other marketing channels as well.

4 P’s OF MARKETING:

The four Ps of marketing are the key factors that are involved in the marketing of a good
or service. Often referred to as the marketing mix, the four Ps are constrained by internal
and external factors in the overall business environment, and they interact significantly with
one another. Following are the 4 P’s:

1.) PRODUCT:
The key focus of Hero MotoCorp has been on introducing robust and
steady products with the use of high technology and vivid and visionary imagination.
The foresight to realize the aspirations of the customers and to anticipate the megatrends
is a remarkable experience.
Although Hero Honda group has been associated with many scooters and motorcycles
like the Karizma, Splendor Pro, Hunk, Glamour, Passion Pro and Glamour F1, the
company under its name Hero MotoCorp launched its first bike called Hero Impulse in
November 2011. The next year saw some very new products that had better mileage
and drive ability along with improved power.
2.) PROMOTION:
Hero MotoCorp brand has a new and trendy identity that is vibrant. The colours black
and red in the logo gives out a strong message of solidity, passion, energy and
confidence. Tag Line – “Hum Mein Hai Hero” is apt and befitting showing that every
person has a hero inside him. All the advertisements related to Hero MotoCorp have
catchy tunes displaying a strong message.
These ads are shown at regular intervals on television, radio, newspapers, magazines
and even billboards. Hero MotoCorp has always been associated with sports for most
of its promotional activities. Previously the company was related to the Indian Open
Golf Tournament and Hockey. Hero MotoCorp under its own brand name sponsored
the tournament FIH Road to London in the year 2012.

3.) PLACE:
In order to maintain its hold in the two-wheeler category the company has set up a very
efficient distribution network. They have set up a network for sales and services with a
minimum of 6000 dealerships at most of the service points in all the parts of the country.
It also has dealer-appointed retail outlets at all important and strategic places.
Hero MotoCorp has the intrinsic ability to reach the far and wide nook and corners of
any place. Earlier Hero MotoCorp set up a chain of service workshops and made
provisions so that its spare parts could be easily available from the dealers and stockiest.
The bikes are available through all the dealers who in return are responsible for
workshops, proper infrastructure and trained employees.

4.) PRODUCT:
Hero MotoCorp follows the policy of competitive pricing as in today’s market
conditions it is very difficult to follow the strategy involving skimming pricing. The
company has decided to implement the value-added pricing policies under which the
customers are provided with the value for their money.
Hero MotoCorp is proud to announce that they are one of the very few companies who
believe in passing the benefit of any cost advantage to its customers. Although the
company has emphasized on qualitative products but still it has kept the prices
reasonable and affordable. Hero MotoCorp has two wheelers of varying price ranges to
suit the needs of different sections of society.
UNDERSTANDING MARKET AND COMPETITION:

The motorcycle segment is very fast-growing, accounting for about three quarters or the two-
wheeler market in India. this naturally induces competition with big players trying to capture a
larger customer basis. The current increase in demand has only escalated this further.
The major competitors of Hero are:
• Maruti Suzuki
• Bajaj Auto
• Honda
• TVS
• Yamaha
• Royal Enfield
• Ather Energy
Bajaj Auto is the top competitor of Hero. Bajaj Auto is a public company that was founded in
Pune, Maharashtra in 1945. Bajaj has 678 fewer employees vs. Hero MotoCorp.
TVS is also seen as one of the Hero MotoCorp's toughest rivals. TVS was founded in Chennai,
Tamil Nadu in 1978. Compared to Hero, TVS generates SI.6B less in revenues.
Ather energy is an upcoming threat to Hero. Ather energy was founded in 2013 and is
headquartered in Bengaluru, Karnataka. Ather energy competes in the application software
field. The company generates S3.7B less in revenues vs. Hero MotoCorp.
Hero is undoubtedly the market leader and of course calls for consistent growth and
performance in order to defend its cove dent position.

SWOT ANALYSIS

STRENGTHS:

1. Brand Recognition:
Brand and brand trust plays a huge part when purchase decisions are made by consumers. Hero
MotoCorp is a strong brand which is synonymous with reliability and fuel efficient two
wheelers.

2. Extensive Domestic Network:

Hero MotoCorp has many dealerships and service points across India. The large number of
service points has allowed it to roll out its Express Service scheme, where it strives to service
a customer's vehicle within 60 minutes.

3. Strong Global Presence:

Ever since the termination of the joint venture between Hero Group of India and Honda of
Japan, Hero MotoCorp began to establish its global footprint.

4. Large Product Portfolio:

Not only does Hero MotoCorp provide a large variety of two wheelers, it is moving rapidly
alongside current market trends as well. For example, the XPulse series is catered towards the
international consumer and the Xtreme series is targeted at the growing premium motorcycle
segment.

WEANKNESS:

1.) Poor Gender Diversification:

As of late 2018, Hero MotoCorp had only 256 female employees out of 8266. Although the
figure has tripled from a mere 1% in 2014, much more still can be done to address the gender
inequality and diversification.

2.) Global Exports:

Despite having a gargantuan market share domestically, Hero MotoCorp is still largely focused
on India. In 2017, only 12% of the units sold by all two-wheeler manufacturers in India
contributed to exports. This is greatly eclipsed by China, which had exported more than 46%
of units sold, more than 4 times the amount. As more competitors are looking to jump on the
two-wheeler market in India, it would be unwise for the company to solely focus on its home
ground.
3.) Declining Service Quality:

In a study conducted by the International Journal of Innovative Research in Science,


Engineering and Technology in 2015, the overall service quality for Hero MotoCorp fell below
expectations of end consumers. According to the study based using SERVQUAL model of
service quality, Bajaj Auto, one of its closest competitors, was deemed to have

OPPORTUNITIES:
1.) Joint Ventures and Acquisitions:
Despite the terminated joint venture with Honda Japan, it is crucial to note that for many years,
technology in its two wheelers came from Honda. By acquiring start-ups or going into joint
ventures will allow the conglomerate to obtain more valuable technology and tap into other
market segments.

2.) Electric Two Wheelers:


The electric bike and scooter market is booming globally and it would be an opportunity for
Hero MotoCorp to leverage on. The e-bike market is expected to reach about 24.3 billion U.S.
dollars by 2025.

THRETS:

1.) Strong Competition

Hero MotoCorp faces strong competition domestically despite its strong foothold in India. The
two-wheeler market in India is very competitive and is dominated by three other major players,
TVS Motors, Honda, and Bajaj Auto. In 2012, Honda launched made-in-China two wheelers
which are priced lower than equivalent cost-efficient models. Honda has been expanding
aggressively since the joint venture was terminated in 2010. Similarly, TVS Motors has
collaborated with BMW to establish its presence in the premium motorcycle market in direct
competition with Hero's Xtreme series.

2.) Betterment of Public Transport

The government of India is striving to improve on its public transport infrastructure. Projects
such as the National Highways Development Project (NHDP) under the ambitious Bharatmala
Pariyojana will add on more than 80,000 km of highways in India. In early 2019, India's Union
Minister Nitin Gadkari announced that India's public transport will be based on the London
model with an MoU with Transport for London (TFL) being signed in the previous year.
Government initiatives will definitely reduce the demand for automobiles if public transport
becomes more reliable.
FUTURE OF THE COMPANY

Dr. Pawan Munjal, chairman and CEO, Hero MotoCorp revealed that Hero has a huge focus
on electric mobility for the future. He added that Hero MotoCorp is set to be a global leader in
the EV segment and that the Indian two-wheeler brand will use its technology centres in India
and Germany and its partnerships with the likes of Gogoro and Ather Energy to "springboard
into 2030". He also emphasised that the company will focus on sustainability internally and
externally.
Hero MotoCorp is set to reduce dependency on fossil fuels and consider alternatives such as
hydrogen, wind and solar power. About 10 percent of the company will focus on innovation
and it aims to reach 100 percent product recyclability along with carbon-neutral dealerships by
2030.
Hero MotoCorp plans to launch its electric vehicles in 20 global markets and expects 15 percent
of total volumes to come from global sales by 2025. Additionally, the company is expecting a
minimum of 30 percent of its sales to come from digital channels through 2030.
Hero MotoCorp also teased its upcoming electric scooter that's expected to be revealed soon.
This scooter is expected to be based on a fixed charging system, similar to most other electric
two-wheelers on sale in India. However, Hero MotoCorp is working on a project in partnership
with Gogoro that will be based on a battery swapping system. Despite being opposite
approaches, Hero is expecting both systems to work parallelly, allowing them to "play in both
the spaces".
CONCLUSION

From manufacturing cycle to two wheelers, a characteristic advance was witnessed by the Hero
Group They have been consistently making progress towards cooperative energy between
innovation frameworks and technology to give items and administrations which meet the
quality, execution, and value goals of the clients.
Like each example of overcoming adversity, Hero's adventure contains a component of soul
and venture; of accomplishment through coarseness and assurance, combined with vision and
fastidious arranging.
From this study we can conclude that hero MotoCorp is a well-organized company providing
tremendous facilities to its customers. Hero MotoCorp is one of the leading automobiles in
India it provides low-cost vehicles and they targeted middle class families. In motorcycle &
scooter segment, hero MotoCorp ltd has faced severe competition from its peer resulting in a
loss of market share.
