CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION OF INDUSTRY

Part 1 (Global Perspective)

Introduction

The Automotive Industry sector is characterised by a relatively low trade/sales ratio. While the production of
most automotive producers in the world is spread over various countries in the value chain, the brands are
still considered to reflect some national identity. Internationalisation strategies may change over the lifecycle
of the product and automakers tend to pursue diametrically opposed strategies. In mature markets, it is about
managing what goes on beneath a static surface; in emerging markets’ dynamic environments,
companiesmust strategically position themselves to benefit from growth opportunities. However, without the
right strategy and execution in mature markets, it is clear that traditional OEMs cannot profit from emerging
markets-the persistence of structural issues in mature market operations eventually will rob all but the most
resilient competitors of the opportunity to compete inemerging markets.

The Automotive Industry comprises a wide range of companies and organizations involved in the design,
development, manufacturing, marketing, and selling of motor vehicles. It is one of the world's largest
economic sectors by revenue. The automotive industry does not include industries dedicated to the
maintenance of automobiles following delivery to the end-user, citation needed such as automobile repair
shops and motor fuel filling stations.

History

The automobile was first invented and perfected in Germany and France in the late 1800s, though Americans
quickly came to dominate the automotive industry in the first half of the twentieth century. Henry Ford
innovated mass-production techniques that became standard, and Ford, General Motors and Chrysler
emerged as the “Big Three” auto companies by the 1920s. Manufacturers funnelled their resources to the
military during World War II, and afterward automobile production in Europe and Japan soared to meet
growing demand. Once vital to the expansion of American urban centres, the industry had become a shared
global enterprise with the rise of Japan as the leading automaker by 1980. Although the automobile was to
have its greatest social and economic impact in the United States, it was initially perfected in Germany and
France toward the end of the nineteenth century by such men as Gottlieb Daimler, Karl Benz, Nicolaus Otto
and Emile Levassor.

Global Market Size of the Industry

The automobile industry is driven by the production and sale of self-powered vehicles, including passenger
cars, trucks, buses, and other commercial vehicles. The automobilesenable the consumers to commute long
distances for work, shopping, and entertainment. The development of roads, increasing standard of living,
increasing middle class population in developing regions, are the factors driving the automotive
industry sector. The globalautomotive industry is garnering much attention from various sectors, due to
which it can expect a smooth run with CAGR of 2.78% during the forecast period. During that time, its
value can grow from 96,804 thousand units in 2017 to 1,13,366 thousand units by 2024. Market Research
Future’s (MRFR) detailed report on the market has its focus on segments, drivers, and competitive
analysis of the entire market.

The automotive industry includes companies and organizations involved in the design, development, and
manufacture, of automobiles. The vehicles are broadly classified intopassenger car and commercial vehicles,
with passenger cars covering sport utility vehicles, sedan, coupe, hatchback cars, and commercial vehicle
includes light trucks, buses, and large transport trucks. However, the automotive industry does
not include the entities dedicated to the maintenance of automobiles, such as delivery to the end user, repair
shops, and motor fuel filling stations. Rise in new vehicle sales has boosted the automotive industry,
globally. The rising standard of living, availability of credit system, and the proliferating component
aftermarket are
expected to drive the automotive industry.

Potentiality

Overall, the global automotive industry is in better shape than it was five years ago, especially in the US,
where profits and sales have recovered following the recent economic crisis, and in China, where growth
remains strong. This progress will likely continue. By 2020, global profits for automotive OEM’s are
expected to rise by almost 50 percent. The new profits will come mainly from growth in emerging
markets and, to a lesser extent, the US, Europe, Japan and South Korea will be stagnant in terms of profit
growth.

There are four key challenges that OEMs need to address to get a piece of future profitability. The analysis
of this report projects to 2021, but these challenges will shape the industry until at least 2025.

1) Complexity and cost pressure - There will be more platform sharing and more modular systems. At the
same time, regulatory pressures will tighten, and prices in established markets are likely to be flat.
2) Diverging markets - OEMs need to adapt to changing regional and segment patterns of supply and
demand with respect to their production and supply base footprints, supply chains, and product portfolios;
and the emerging Chinese aftersales market offers new growth opportunities.
3) Digital demands - Consumers want more connectivity, are focused on active safety and ease of use, and
are increasingly using digital sources in making their purchase decisions.
4) Shifting industry landscape - Suppliers will add more value in alternative powertrain technologies and in
innovative solutions for active safety and infotainment; Europe needs to restructure and adjust its capacity to
better match demand; and competition is emerging from China.

To capture future growth and find profit from these challenges – and to mitigate their risks – OEMs cannot
simply turn to their traditional toolbox. They need to review and adjust their strategic priorities, deploy the
appropriate investments and resources, and develop new skills to execute these strategic objectives.

Turnover

Profitability remains strong in the automotive sector with an average EBIT margin of 6.0% in 2016.
Suppliers reached an average margin of 7.0%, with Italian companies taking the lead (9.0%). Car
manufacturers achieved a lower EBIT at 5.5%, with Japanese actors in pole position for the second year in a
row.The Automotive Software and Electronic Market across the world are expected to grow to $469 billion
by 2030, from the current $238 billion, forecasts a study by McKinsey & Company Also, the study forecasts
that the automotive software market will grow to $362 billion by the end of 2025. The technologies that are
driving this transformation include autonomous vehicles, connectivity, electrification, and shared mobility
(ACES), offering new opportunities for growth and disruption.

The study also claims that overall Automotive Market across the world will grow to $3,800 billion by 2030,
from current $2,755 billion, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 3%. The market volume will
be $3,027 billion by the end of 2025 is been expected in consideration of the related growth and demand in
the sector of automotive.

Total Economic Output

Currently, the development of the country’s economy is difficult to imagine without the development of the
automobile industry. According to the world association of car manufacturers “OICA” in 2017, 73.4 million
cars and 23.84 million trucks were produced in the world. Several importance to note for the importance of
Automotive Industry.

1) According to international estimates, the average annual turnover of the world automobile industry is
more than 2.75 trillion.
2) Euro, which corresponds to 3.65% of world GDP. In the automotive industry over the last ten years
(2007-2017) there was a 25% increase in production.
3) Cars are one of the world’s largest export products, surpassing oil revenues, for example, world car
exports by country in 2016 estimated at 698.2 billion dollars,USA. So, among the 2500 leading companies in
the investment in R&D, three major sectors dominate: pharmaceuticals and biotechnology, production of
process equipment, and the automotive industry. For example, only the volume of investment
in R&D corporation VW AG.
4) It has become about 13 billion euros, and two years later in 2016 about 13.2 billion US dollars. It is worth
noting that tax revenue from car manufacturers in 26 industrialized countries is more than 430 billion euros
per year.

Part 2 (Indian Perspective)

Introduction

The Automotive Industry in India at present as per the Indian Automobile Report of (June 2020), India is
recorded as the fifth largest auto market in 2019 with sales reaching to 3.81 million units. It was the Seventh
largest manufacturer of commercial vehicles in 2019.

The two wheelers segment dominate the market in terms of volume owing to a growing middle class and a
young population. Moreover, the growing interest of the companies in exploring the rural markets further
aided the growth of the sector. India is also a prominent auto exporter and has strong export growth
expectations for the near future. In addition, several initiatives by the Government of India and major
automobile players in the Indian market is expected to make India a leader in the two-wheeler and four-
wheeler market in the world by 2020.

History

The first car that plied on Indian roads was as early as 1897 and the first Indian to own a car in 1901 was
Jamshedji Tata. It was in 1942, before India’s independence that Hindustan Motors manufactured the first
automobile in India. Soon after India’s independence, the Government of India tried to boost the sector by
encouraging manufacturing of automobiles. Before that, the cars were imported directly.

The Automobile Sector formally came into being in the year 1952 when the Government appointed its first
tariff commission with the aim of indigenizing this industry. The year 1952 also marked the introduction of
passenger cars in the country. Manufacturers like Hindustan Motors, Premier Automobiles and Standard
Motors came into the limelight. Even SUV’s started being manufactured by Mahindra and Mahindra, Bajaj,
Standard Motors, etc. Cumbersome and medium commercial vehicles were made by 7 manufacturers which
included Ashok Motors, Simpsons and Co., Premier Motors and more. Two-wheeler vehicles like scooters,
motor bikes or mopeds were manufactured by Bajaj Auto, Escorts Group, Royal Enfield, Automobiles
Product of India, Ideal Jawa, etc.

Motor Liberalization phase started where there were few options with automobiles. This phase continued for
an extended period until the phase of the liberalisation. It encouraged many international players to foray
into Indian markets. Many of them collaborated with the local manufacturers to form companies to capture
markets as per the needs of local customer.

Indian Market Size of the Industry

The automotive industry in India has come a long way from the 1950s when the annual production of
vehicles was limited to 40 thousand. Early stages of production were confined to the three leading
manufacturers like Hindustan Motors, Premier Automobiles and Standard Motors. Expertise in the
automotive sector was by and large attained through trial and error in the early stages. Through the decades,
the country emerged an important part in the global automotive industry - third largest in
the Asia-Pacific in 2019.

In fiscal year 2018, the market size for auto components in the country accounted to approximately 51.2
billion U.S. dollars, up from about 43.5 billion U.S. dollars in fiscal year 2017. Industry forecasts predict the
market size for automotive components is estimated to reach a value of around 115 billion dollars by fiscal
year 2021. As per forecast for the fiscal year 2019, the Indian automotive sector was projected to
produce approximately 24.5 million and four million two wheelers and passenger vehicles respectively.

Potentiality

The industry currently manufactures 26 million vehicles, of which 4.7 million are exported. India holds a
strong position in the international heavy vehicles arena as it is the largest tractor manufacturer, second-
largest bus manufacturer and third largest heavy trucks manufacturer in the world. In April-March 2020,
overall automobile exports registered a growth of 2.95 %. Passenger Vehicles exports marginally increased
by 0.17% and Two wheelers exports registered a growth of 7.30% in April-March 2020 over the same period
last year.

Turnover

As per the Automotive Component Manufacturers Association of India (ACMA), has announced the
findings of its Industry Performance Review for the first half of fiscal 2019-20. The turnover of the
automotive component industry that contributes 2.3 percent to India’s GDP, 25 per cent to its manufacturing
GDP and provides employment to 50 lakh people, stood at Rs.1.79 lakh crore (USD 26.2 billion) for the
period April 2019 to September 2019, registering a de-growth of 10.1 per cent over the first half of
the previous year.

CHAPTER 2 : ORGANISATION PROFILE

2.1 BACKGROUND

Industry -- Automotive
Founded -- 19 January 1984
Founder -- BrijmohanLall Munjal
Headquarters -- New Delhi, India
Key people -- Pawan Munjal (Chairman, MD & CEO)
Products -- Motorcycles, Scooters

Hero MotoCorp Ltd., formerly known as Hero Honda, is an Indian motorcycle and scooter manufacturer
based in New Delhi, India. The company is the largest two-wheeler manufacturer in the world and also in
India, where it has a market share of about 46% in the two-wheeler category. The 2006 Forbes list of the 200
World's Most Respected Companies has Hero Honda Motors ranked at #108. On 31 March 2013, the market
capitalisation of the company was ₹308 billion (US$4.3 billion). Hero Honda started its operations in 1984
as a joint venture between Hero Cycles (sometimes called Hero Group, not to be confused with the Hero
Group food company of Switzerland) of India and Honda of Japan. In June 2012, Hero MotoCorp
approved a proposal to merge the investment arm of its parent Hero Investment Private Limited with the
automaker. This decision came 18 months after its split from Hero Honda.

"Hero" is the brand name used by the Munjal brothers for their flagship company, Hero Cycles Ltd. A joint
venture between the Hero Group and Honda Motor Company was established in 1984 as the Hero Honda
Motors Limited at Dharuhera, India. 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.
It maintains global industry leadership to date. The technology in the bikes of Hero MotoCorp (earlier Hero
Honda) for almost 26 years (1984–2010) has come from the Japanese counterpart Honda.

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 were developed by the British firm Wolff
Olins. The logo was revealed on 9 August 2011 in London, to coincide with the third test match between
England and India.

2.8 FUTURE GROWTH AND PROSPECTS

'Be the future of mobility', that's the new vision for Hero MotoCorp as it works on multiple strategies aimed
at sustainable growth in an age of disruptions. Some of them could see the Rs 33,651 crore company venture
into new areas of mobility, perhaps beyond motorcycles and scooters. And beyond vehicles, to services too.
To achieve its goals in the fast-changing and disruptive mobility industry, Hero MotoCorp could strike some
new partnerships. "There could be multiple partnerships going forward for various different things," says
Pawan Munjal, chairman, MD and CEO, Hero MotoCorp. Among the new partners could also be a market
rival, or two.
"Friends and enemies are getting together. This is the era of partnerships, so anything is possible," says
Munjal.

Not quite a rival, but premium motorcycle maker Harley-Davidson is reportedly in talks with Hero for a crop
of midsize motorcycles, an emerging segment in India and overseas too. Hero's peers TVS Motor Co (with
BMW Motorrad) and Bajaj Auto (KTM, Husqvarna, Triumph) have made struck different kinds of
partnerships to enter the premium motorcycle segment, while offering their partners an opportunity to
play in segments, and markets, that offer much bigger volumes and thereby help them grow well.

To help it be in tune with the fast-changing times, Hero MotoCorp has reorganised its organisational
structure to add a new unit called Emerging Mobility Business Unit. This unit is tasked to identify new
opportunities in the mobility space. In this quest, the company is working with start-ups – external and
internal.

Future Strategy

Quark 1, a concept that can be operated as a two- or three-wheeler is one example of a project by an internal
start-up. Based on an 'Advanced Modular Scalable Electric Platform', Quark 1 is one of the multiple projects
under Hero Hatch, the company's incubation centre and indicative of the fact that the OEM's future mobility
solutions may also have more than two wheels. An online marketplace for pre-owned two-wheelers that's
currently that's currently undergoing market trials is another project by an internal start-up. Ather Energy,
where Hero MotoCorp has a 31 percent stake is an example of the OEM partnering with an external start-up.
New big-ticket investment planned where Hero MotoCorp will invest "in the region of" Rs 10,000 crore on
R&D, alternate mobility solutions, network expansion, brand building across the globe, and more. Rajat
Bhargava, Head - Strategy & Performance Transformation, Global Business & Emerging Mobility, Hero
MotoCorp says, "There are also projects in the pipeline which are catering to the intersection of connected,

14
PG DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES

electric and sharing."There could be collaboration for some of these too, with the goal of being a strong
player in the mobility industry.After a decade of successfully riding solo, after parting ways with Honda, the
current decade will see Hero MotoCorp take a series of steps to 'be the future of mobility'. It will also see the
OEM, which has increased its exports business to reach around 40 markets now, to take steps to what
Munjal says as "find our rightful place in the global business".

India’s largest two-wheeler maker Hero MotoCorp has announced that it aims to sell as much as ten lakh
units in the overseas markets in the next 5-6 years. The company has also prepared a list of markets which it
has decided to enter and later to dominate. To mention its plans for the domestic front, HMC is looking
forward to invest a whooping sum of INR 1,000 crore to set up two new manufacturing facilities besides
expanding the output of three of its existing plants.

CHAPTER 3: McKinsey’s 7S FRAMEWORK MODEL

McKinsey 7s model was developed in 1980’s by McKinsey consultants Tom Peters, Robert Waterman and
Julien Philips with a help from Richard Pascale and Anthony G. Athos. Since the introduction, the model has
been widely used by academics and practitioners and remains one of the most popular strategic planning
tools. It sought to present an emphasis on human resources (Soft S), rather than the traditional mass
production tangibles of capital, infrastructure and equipment, as a key to higher organizational
performance.McKinsey 7s model is a tool that analyses firm’s organizational design by looking at 7 key
internal elements in order to identify if they are effectively aligned and allow organization to achieve its
objectives. The goal of the model was to show how 7 elements of the company which can be aligned
together to achieve effectiveness in a company.

It argues that organisational effectiveness involves more than simply putting in place the right command and
control structure to coordinate the delivery of an organisation’s strategy. Instead, the framework maps a
constellation of seven interacting factors that are key to helping people function effectively together, in
order to achieve a high-performance organisation. Objective of analysing the model Is to analyse how well
an organization is positioned to achieve its intended objective as follows:

Usage

• Improve the performance of a company


• Examine the likely effects of future changes within a company
• Align departments and processes during a merger or acquisition
• Determine how best to implement a proposed strategy
The basic premise of the model is that there are seven internal aspects of an organization that need to be
aligned if it is has to be a successful business in the economy.

Hard Elements

• Strategy - Purpose of the business and the way the organization seeks to enhance its competitive advantage.
• Structure - Division of activities; integration and coordination mechanisms.
• Systems - Formal procedures for measurement, reward and resource allocation. Soft Elements
• Shared Values
• Skills - The organization's core competencies and distinctive capabilities.

• Staff - Organization's human resources, demographic, educational and attitudinal characteristics.


16
PG DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES
Organisation study on Hero Motocrop.ltd

• Style - Typical behaviour patterns of key groups, such as managers, and other professionals.

Analysing McKinsey’s Framework 7S Elements on HERO MotoCorp Ltd.

A. STRATEGY

Strategy is simply the goals you choose and the actions you take to achieve those goals that are set by an
organization effectively.Hero MotoCorp uses these strategies for the business:

• Growth Strategy - The Corporate strategy is primarily about the choice of direction for a firm as a whole
and the management of its business or product portfolio.

• Concentrated Strategy - If the company’s current product lines have real growth potential, concentration of
those resources on those product lines makes sense as a strategy for growth. The two basic concentration
strategies are vertical and horizontal growth
.
• Vertical and Horizontal Strategy - Vertical growth can be achieved by taking over a function previously
provided by a supplier or by a distributor. The company in effect to it, grows by making its own supplies and
by distributing its own products.

17
PG DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES
Organisation study on Hero Motocrop.ltd

Here, in corporate strategy the Hero MotoCorp looks for the vertical growth wherein it has increased its
distribution and has 3000+ distributors and servicing centres which shows that the company focuses on the
vertical growth and this strategy might have benefitted the company in terms of guaranteeing & assuring
the quality of the product and service.

• Diversification Strategy - Ather Energy, the Bangalore based smart electric two-wheeler start-up, has
announced that India’s largest two-wheeler manufacturer Hero MotoCorp is taking a 26 - 30% stake in the
company where Hero MotoCorp has applied the strategy of diversification of the business to gain profit at
the same time to achieve their objectives.

• Concentric Strategy - For Hero MotoCorp buying into Ather-Energy is a strategic decision commenting on
taking a stake in Ather Energy. Pawan Munjal the Chairman, MD and CEO of Hero MotoCorp said
“Adoption of environmental-friendly fuel is a priority for Hero, as is propagating sustainable manufacturing
through green facilities. One of our strategic priorities therefore, is to engage with the external eco-system
including start-ups in adjacent areas. Hero MotoCorp intends to enhance its participation in the electric
vehicle space by pursuing its internal EV program in addition to partnering with AtherEnergy.

PORTER’s Five Forces MODEL

The tool was created by Harvard Business School professor Michael Porter, to analyse an industry's
attractiveness and likely profitability. Since its publication in 1979, it has become one of the most popular
and highly regarded business strategy tools.Porter identified five forces that make up the competitive
environment, and which can erode your profitability. These are:

1) Competitive Rivalry: This looks at the number and strength of your competitors. How many rivals do you
have? Who are they, and how does the quality of their products and services compare with yours?Anywhere
rivalry is intense, companies can attract customers with aggressive price cuts and high-impact marketing
campaigns.

2) Supplier Power: This is determined by how easy it is for your suppliers to increase their prices. How
many potential suppliers do you have? How unique is the product or service that they provide? The more
you have to choose from, the easier it will be to switch to a cheaper alternative. But the fewer suppliers there
are, and the more you need their help, the stronger their position and their ability to charge you more. That
can impact your profit.

3) Buyer Power: Here, you ask yourself how easy it is for buyers to drive your prices down. How many
buyers are there, and how big are their orders? How much would it cost them to switch from your products
and services to those of a rival? Are your buyers strong enough to dictate terms to you?When you deal with
only a few savvy customers, they have more power, but your power increases if you have many customers.

4) Threat of Substitution: This refers to the likelihood of your customers finding a different way of doing
what you do. For example, if you supply a unique software product that automates an important process,
people may substitute it by doing the process manually or by outsourcing it. A substitution that is easy and
cheap to make can weaken your position and threaten your profitability.

5) Threat of New Entry: Your position can be affected by people's ability to enter your market. So, think
about how easily this could be done. How easy is it to get a foothold in your industry or market? How much
24
PG DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES
Organisation study on Hero Motocrop.ltd

would it cost, and how tightly is your sector regulated? If you have strong and durable barriers to entry, then
you can preserve a favourable position and take fair advantage of it.

Analysing the PORTER’s Five Forces Model of Hero MotoCorp:

Competative rivalry
The competition among the firms help in identifying the lucrativeness of an industry where companies are
competing hard in order to maintain their power within the industry. The Hero MotoCorp competition is
moreover on basis of diversity, the development within the sector and the barriers related to entrance in the
market. The competitive rivalry is the analysis of the brands and the product, its strengths and weakness
along with the strategies, competitors and the share in the market.
Hero MotoCorp's top 7 competitors are
TVS
Maruti Suzuki
Yamaha Motor

Together they have raised over 180.6M between their estimated 684.2K employees.Hero MotoCorp has
8,551 employees and is ranked 6th among its top 10 competitors. The top 10 competitors average 57,731.

BARGAINING POWER OF SUPPLIERS

25
PG DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES
Organisation study on Hero Motocrop.ltd

Powerful suppliers possess more power to capture significant value for themselves by demanding high prices
while limiting the quality and the quantity of the product or services or by transferring the cost on the
participant of the industry. Many conditions imposed by the suppliers generally include the increase in price
while compromising the quality and quantity.
Bargaining Power of a supplier in the market is strong if:

• It is more concentrated than the industry it is selling to.


• It is not heavily relying on the industry for its profits.
• If the participants in the industry have to incur high cost for switching suppliers or the firms are located
adjacent to the suppliers manufacturing facilities.
• The product being offered by the suppliers are highly differentiated.
• And when there is no close substitute available for the products being supplied by
the suppliers.

BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS

The buyers having strong bargaining power can highly influence the profitability of the suppliers operating
in the market by imposing condition that are not much favourable for the suppliers in terms of price, quality
or service.Powerful buyers could flip the side of the powerful supplies by forcing the prices to move
downwards and by demanding high quality and services by creating a competition between the participants
in the industry on the basis of price and quantity. Hero MotoCorp Customer are deemed strong if they
contain negotiating leverage specifically if the industry is sensitive to price, the buyers can pressure
suppliers for further price reductions.

Customer is assumed to have strong buying power in case:

• If the number of buyers is limited or each of the buyer purchases large quantity
relative to the size of the suppliers.
• The products in the industry are standardized or are undifferentiated.
• The cost of switching is comparatively low.

THREAT OF SUBSTITUTE PRODUCTS

The Hero MotoCorp substitute products are an alternative that are available in the market at comparatively
better prices. Such products prevail due to the technological and innovative advancement. Due to which the
products being produced by the companies that are already existing in the market and is using the same
26
PG DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES
Organisation study on Hero Motocrop.ltd

technology are than replaced by the other company’s products that are comparatively better in terms of price
and quality and are being produced from sectors with significant profits. The substitute products are
dangerous as the companies are under constant threat of being replaced. High threat of substitute leads to
low profitability as it limits the industry profits by placing a price ceiling due to the fear of being substituted
by other product. Apart from this it also affects the growth potentials of the industry as a whole but reducing
the profitability margins.

THREAT OF NEW ENTRANTS

It is in the favour of the companies that exist in the market to create barriers for the new entrants to prevent
them from entering into the industry. The organizations could be the new companies or the companies that
are planning to diversify itself in the market. The barriers can be both industrial and legal. Apart from this
the size and the reputation of the companies that are already operating in the market also play an
important. Furthermore, the cost related to the entry, access to raw materials, barriers related to culture and
technical standards also play a major role and can affect the decision of the new entrants in the market.

However, there are some Limitations of Hero MotoCorp SWOT analysis:


The SWOT analysis is only a one stage of the business planning process and do not provide the organization
with an in-depth analysis or research that could lead to a firm decision. Apart from this it only covers the
issues that are definite and doesn’t priorities them. In addition to this it does not provide any solution or
alternatives decisions. As a framework, SWOT does process a value but it doesn’t provide the organization
with any specific direction on how the key aspects can be identified. It significantly relies on the capabilities
of the manager that how effectively it can prioritize and determine the most important element. Another
limitation associated with Hero MotoCorp SWOT analysis is that it provides equal weight to each factor
regardless of their impact or relevancy.
