Abstract:
Pharmaceutical industry is a fastest growing industry in India. It is valued at above US 40 billion dollars. India exports large amount of drugs to difference parts of the world. Nowadays people are conscious of what they buy. Even if doctors prescribe a medicine, consumers resort to internet to get more information on the medicine before they consume it. Consumers have different perceptions on various kinds of drugs. Understanding the consumer attitude towards drugs will help the marketers to formulate marketing strategies better. The present study examines as to what the consumers look out when they reach to purchase a drug from the pharmacy. This paper scrutinizes and gives insights on consumer behavior and their attitudes towards buying different types of pharmaceuticals (like over-the counter drugs, herbals, ayurvedic, analgesics etc). The paper highlights the importance of factors like price, trust and brand in making importance purchase decisions. Further it was also observed that most of the people prefer buying over-the-counter drugs, which might end up being misused by the consumers. However, it was also found that consumers try to be well-aware of the medicine before buying or consuming it. Along with it, price sensitivity is something which majorly dominates the buying behavior of the consumers.

Abstract:
Purpose This study aims to empirically indicate that environment-friendly products may be used as a consumption strategy for improving the environmental well-being of a sizable consumer base and show that there are great possibilities and opportunities available for companies to come up with the right marketing mix for consumers in the rural market. There is a great dearth of empirical research on consumer behavior facets on environment-friendly products for rural market in India. Design/methodology/approach Conclusive cross-sectional descriptive research design has been used to study the environmentally concerned consumer behavior (ECCB) for environment-friendly products with the help of a survey instrument relevant for empirical research. This paper adds to the existing literature by developing one model in the Indian context for the rural market. The research study used exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis with structural equation modeling approach to analyze the collected data from consumers. Findings The major finding of the study is that consumers living in rural areas are aware about the environmental movement, but marketers have probably not fully explored the potential for environment-friendly products. The study strongly argues that organizations should leverage on the rural market opportunity in India. It confirms the need to tailor marketing mix for rural markets for determining behavioral dimensions of consumer decision-making. Research limitations/implications This empirical research paper is developed and applied in the Indian context, with special reference to the rural market of the country. Results may change when applied to different rural locations in the same country and/or different countries depending on their demographic variables, psychosocial factors and socioeconomic conditions. The findings of this study need to be viewed within the context of certain limitations of location, social and economic issues. The study provides the initial base for further research on the theme, as there are no such studies available on environment-friendly products. Practical implications This research study is highly useful for the business firms deciding on marketing mix variables for environment-friendly products in rural market scenario in India, and it provides inputs for formulating major policy decisions in marketing. The study provides insights for managers, policymakers and organizations operating in rural markets and working on different facets of environmental protection issues in different forms. Social implications It has been investigated across global markets that human activities have altered the natural ecosystem, so to make natural resources available for the future generation, there is a greater need to achieve more sustainable forms of development. The study provides insights from the rural Indian market for better adoption of environment-friendly products and will motivate marketers to explore the rural market horizon. Originality/value The study has been conducted with consumers who are residents of one small town in India. So far, no study has been conducted, and it is first such attempt to analyze the rural Indian market for environment-friendly products and consumer behavior ever since such products were launched in the country. This study provides an early glimpse into the workings of marketing practitioners who work on consumer strategy formulation and rural marketing decision-making for environment-friendly products.

Abstract:
Business anthropology has emerged recently as a professional sub-field that joins together several streams of literature related to multiple dimensions of the business enterprise. A consumer is the one who pays something to consume goods and services produced. As such, consumers play a vital role in the economic system of a nation. The aims and objectives to be considered are as follows; to identifying cultural and socio-economic determinants which affect the buying behavior of rural and tribal consumers in the backward and tribal villages of India, to explore the awareness regarding legal provisions of the consumer rights among the rural and tribal consumers in backward and tribal villages of India and to investigate the incidents of violation and exploitation of the consumer rights of the rural and tribal consumers in backward and tribal villages of India. The paramount fact is that, we have the huge scarcity of the research work related to the consumer behavior, in the terms of business anthropological perspectives, especially on the tribal consumer behavior. One of the prime objectives of these kinds of studies is to investigate the impact of demonetization on the rural and tribal production, trade and markets. Apart from these there are no studies on the impact of demonetization on the tribes of India. Above mentioned facts have proved that that there is a big gap in the field of rural and tribal consumer behavior study, especially in the terms of business anthropology. Therefore, there is urgent need to conduct such type of study. The comprehensive analysis of the primary data which will collect from tribal and rural areas; will form a basis for recommendation and policy measures with consideration of the cultural, socio-economical and local particularities. The finding of the study would highlight various dimensions of problems encountered by rural and tribal consumers in terms of violation of their rights and exploitation through chain of disbursement of goods and services.

Abstract:
The market’s level of competition has risen as a result of the advent of the overseas white goods industry. With rising earnings, dual-income families, changing lifestyles, credit availability, greater consumer knowledge, and the introduction of new models by Indian and multinational companies, India’s consumer durable sector is riding the crest of the country’s economic boom. As the Durable market is growing rapidly, an understanding of the consumer behavior regarding the characteristic of consumers in influencing their buying behavior is crucial. Consumer requirements of Air-condition, Washing machine and Refrigerator are at present not limited to its basic function but also on other values like – efficiency, ease of use and comfort. The consumer durables industry is marked by the growth of multinational corporations (MNCs), exchange offers, discounts, and fierce competition. MNCs have a 65 percent market share in the consumer durables industry. The expanding Indian middle class is a major focus for multinational corporations. They compete on the basis of a firm grasp on the local market, well-known brands, and a large distribution network, whereas Indian companies compete on the basis of a firm grasp on the local market, well-known brands, and a large distribution network. Consumer durables penetration, on the other hand, is still low in India. At this juncture, this study has been undertaken for to find out the impact and reality of white goods market in India.

Abstract:
In todays tech-driven world, digital wallets such as Paytm, GPay, MobiKwik, and so on, are gaining immense popularity among consumers. With economies becoming digital as more and more consumers opt for computerized alternatives to the traditional leather wallet, the industry has become a profitable base for potential investors. In India, specifically, the growth of digital wallets has been propelled by the demonetization policy, which significantly reduced the volume of currency in circulation, implemented by the government in 2016. One of the major consequences of an increase in the popularity of digital wallets has been a shift in the behaviors and spending habits of consumers, particularly in India, where the transition to a cashless economy has been considerably rapid. The goal of this study is to assess the apparent impact of the transition to digital economies on consumer behavior, and the various factors associated with this shift. This assessment was made by surveying users of digital wallets, between the ages 18 and 65, to seek their responses on how shifting to digital wallets has impacted them, their spending habits, etc. The responses were closely analyzed and interpreted to come to a conclusion.

Abstract:
The Indian economy has grown over the last 10 years with new jobs created in the ITES sector, Biomedical, Automotive engineering, Apparel manufacturing and Civil engineering. The growth is strongly led by Information Technology Enabled Services (ITES); this is supported by the education sector with increase in the number of students enrolling for higher education and large numbers of students graduating every year thus creating a large pool of technical and managerial manpower. The working class people segment has grown since the economic growth and it has benefited middle class and upper middle class people. Due to the increase in the number of working people and substantial raise in income, spending power has increased over the years, and particularly the young Indians in the age of 15 – 25 like to shop more. The Government of India has laid down strict rules to protect the environment and avoiding child labor but there is no legality followed by companies in providing an ethical environment in means of working time and salary. The increase in food, energy and real estate costs makes people’s lives more difficult at this time. Are we going to follow the western countries and repeat the same mistake leading to a standstill? As resources are getting to near exhaustion, now is the time to think and ask ourselves question of what we are doing and justify ensuring that we buy only for our needs. This study focuses on the consumer behavior of young Indians in the age of 15 – 25 to understand and know their perception towards spending and to show a new path for the society and the industry for a sustainable environment.

Abstract:
Group norms influence individual's behaviour as a member of the group. However, a conflict can arise and individuals must choose between conforming to the group norms or to their own preferences. This research investigated how group norms influence consumer behaviour when individual and group consumption preferences differ and was conducted in religious context. The results of this dissertation reveal that religion is not a homogeneous construct and, therefore, must be considered as more than a demographic variable for consumer behaviour. This research also broadens our understanding of how groups can influence individual behaviour in the presence of conflicting consumption preferences.

The third chapter examines the determinants that influence the consumer behavior of the potential customer’s usage of online buying of products and services in terms of e-tourism services and to show their interrelationship in the perspective of Taiwan. The outcome of the second chapter will prove to be beneficial for the online buying industry as a whole so as to have a better understanding of the determinants affecting the consumer behavior in India and Taiwan. This in turn will help them to find out more precise solutions for making the process of online buying more popular, user friendly, much convenient and close to the terms of the user’s expectations in both the countries. Results of the third chapter will help the online buying industry specifically for e-tourism to understand the determinants affecting consumer behavior while buying products and services in Taiwan’s perspective. This study will help the e-tourism industry to make changes in their currently used technology in order to make it suitable and fit for the use of the end consumer as per their needs and requirements.

Abstract:
This study examines the attitudinal and behavioural dimensions of Indian consumers, in the Chatsworth area, to brand loyalty. A survey was undertaken in the designated area and data for the investigation was obtained from a sample of 237 households, drawn by means of the stratified random sampling technique. The data was qualitatively and quantitatively analysed using numerous descriptive and inferential statistical techniques. The findings indicate that Indian consumers are more brand loyal to food than to non-food products. This result reflects that the type of merchandise involved and the relative strength of brands have an important influence on brand loyalty. Furthermore, Indians are rational buyers, who evaluate the cost and benefits of products, and increasingly consider the purchases of house brands as opposed to branded products. The determinants of brand loyalty for products in general. was found to be quality, whilst the main product evalutation criteria for food items is freshness, followed by nutritional value. The majority of consumers do not base their judgement of quality on price. Finally, non-brand loyal buyers assign higher ratings to product attributes on most of the specific products studied, than brand loyal consumers.

Abstract:
This study focused on the consumption patterns of Indians in Kwazulu-Natal. As a group Indians' consumption patterns differ sufficiently to have strong implications for marketers targeting this sector of the market. Marketers need to take cognisance of their consumption patterns to implement effective marketing strategies. The consumption behaviour of Indians was compared to and contrasted with the other race groups - Whites and Blacks - in terms of their main expenditure items by type of outlet to determine significant differences. The basic unit of study was the household - multiple and single. Demographic and cultural factors were examined closely since the researcher made the assumption that these factors would highlight differences in consumption patterns between and within communities. Several findings which could have a bearing on marketing of products in this segment have emerged from this study: • There are more income earners among the Indian households when compared to Whites and Blacks. • The majority of the respondents belong to the baby-boomer subculture, a group that has tremendous buying and spending power. • This study reinforces the view that there is a clear link between improved education, occupation and higher income as well as LSM groupings. • Another significant trend for marketers to note is that the increasing number of Indian females entering the workforce is changing the traditional roles within the household. They are becoming more active in the decision-making process. • The increasing forces of westernisation and improving education have contributed to the Indian consumer becoming more sophisticated in terms of their consumption habits. • The household unit itself is caught in a process of transition. The traditional large joint family system is giving way to the small nuclear family. All these developments have implications for marketers. Indian consumers' main expenditure was on food, followed by housing and electricity. They spent relatively more than the other race groups on purchases from informal outlets in the retail sector.

Abstract:
This study is focused on identifying cultural typologies of the Indian population group. These typologies or dimensions are analysed from a consumer behaviour perspective with strong implications for marketers who need to take cognisance of these typologies when developing new product offerings and devising marketing campaigns targeted at this population group. The consumption behaviour of Indians are compared and contrasted with the other predominant race groups in South Africa (namely Whites, Blacks and Coloureds), in terms of expenditure and buying power. Further, an analysis of Indian culture typologies provides marketers with insight into cultural issues that have a bearing on the development of marketing strategies. The findings that have emerged from this study are important for various reasons. Over 75% of the total Indian population live in KwaZulu-Natal (Census 1996). Further, compared to other race groups, the Indian population has a high rate of urbanisation with 96.8% of the population living in metropolitan areas (ibid.). Education levels supercedes those of the Black and Coloured population groups with 30.4% of Indians having completed matric and l0.4% having furthered their education (South Africa in Transition: StatsSA). In keeping with this trend, in comparison with the other race groups, Indians have a high penetration of English spoken as a first language (93.2%). While 21% of the Indian population are characterised as middle to upper income earners, occupying LSM's 6 to 10, Indian households in the Durban Metropolitan area have more earners (33.2%) per household in comparison to the Black and White population groups (Stats South Africa). In addition, an increasing number of Indian women are entering the workforce and are becoming more active in decision-making. Findings related to Indian culture have unearthed that while Indian culture has imbibed a global culture as far as dress, entertainment and lifestyle are concerned, traditional beliefs and values, including that of religion, are steadfastly held onto. However, this dissertation also finds that the Indian population group is highly materialistic and great attention is focussed on the accumulation of possessions. Further, materialism within the Indian population, is seen as a reflection of status.

Marketers have realized the importance of assessing consumers’ willingness to pay (WTP) before introducing green products across different target audience. The purpose of this paper is to examine the relative influence of consumers’ pro-environmental behaviours (PEBs) and environmental locus of control (ELOC) on their WTP for green products. The study sample consisted of 256 Indian consumers which were recruited with the help of convenience sampling. A structured questionnaire was administered with scales that were well established and that have been used in previous research. Data were analysed with the help of CFA and structural equation modelling to test the relationship of ELOC and PEB anon WTP. Second, clustering respondents according to their PEB and ELOC has been done to find its differential effect on WTP with the help of multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA). Findings of the study highlight that WTP for green products is significantly predicted by two variables which are in following order: PEB and ELOC. Results of cluster analysis and MANOVA revealed that WTP differ significantly with the level of intensity of ELOC and PEB among Indian consumers. It advances the body of knowledge centred on the interplay of the PEB and ELOC to WTP for green products. Additional work is clearly required to consider the wide range of potentially relevant variables like brand image, prices, advertisements and product quality that ensures the generalizability of findings. The hypothesis framed, tested and inferences made can form a basis of extremely valued toolkit for those green marketers who take caution when planning their marketing and communications strategies to stimulate the WTP by conveying a reason and motivation to act environmentally. In this study, an understanding of WTP for green products is developed. The much required knowledge gap in terms of interplay of ELOC and PEB on WTP has been filled with the help of the present study. It has been identified that those consumer groups who displays higher PEB and ELOC forms the primary target audience for green product marketer.

Abstract:
The early years of the British Industrial Revolution were dominated by mechanical innovations in cotton spinning. They emerged at a time when raw cotton prices were unprecedentedly high and the supply of all-cotton fabrics from India, the world’s principal producer of cotton textiles, had contracted dramatically. Most «cotton» textiles manufactured in Britain in the mid-18th century were combinations of expensive cotton yarn and cheap linen yarn. Faced with rising material costs, manufacturers economised by increasing the proportion of cheaper linen yarn. The most fashionable cotton products were, however, made entirely from cotton, or required a fixed proportion of cotton yarn. As the cost of cotton rose, their rapidly rising sales provided the principal inducement to improve quality and cut costs by inventing machines for spinning cotton yarn.

Abstract:
When developing a first-generation product, an iterative approach often yields the shortest time-to-market. In order to optimize its performance, however, a fundamental understanding of the theory governing its operation becomes necessary. This paper details the optimization of the Tata Swach, a consumer water purifier produced for India. The primary objective of the work was to increase flow rate while considering other factors such as cost, manufacturability, and efficacy. A mathematical model of the flow characteristics through the filter was developed. Based on this model, a design tool was created to allow designers to predict flow behavior without prototyping, significantly reducing the necessity of iteration. Sensitivity analysis was used to identify simple ways to increase flow rate as well as potential weak points in the design. Finally, it was demonstrated that maximum flow rate can be increased by 50% by increasing the diameter of a flow-restricting feature while simultaneously increasing the length of the active purification zone. This can be accomplished without significantly affecting cost, manufacturability, and efficacy.

Abstract:
India’s energy challenge is the result of its expanding economy and industrialization, as well as its growing population and rising standards of living. To meet this challenge, India has to keep pace through innovation and adoption of new and improved energy technologies that meet consumers’ needs and demands. The goal of this research is to look at new energy technologies that could be adopted for India’s industrial sector as captive power generation units. A bottom-up “toolbox” energy model is developed to analyze the technology choice based on levelized energy cost, capacity factor and environmental emissions. Sensitivity of the governing factors affecting the decision process is analyzed. The model is run under different socio-economic scenarios in India to ascertain the technology choice and behavior of technology choices. The model results indicate that advanced conventional technologies operating on natural gas (NGCC-“H” and NGCC-“G”) seem to be the most optimal choice during low economic growth cycles, while Fuel Cell technology is best suited to times of high economic growth. Based on research findings, strategic technology management perspectives have been recommended for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and energy consultants, who would want to strategically place these technologies in the market to meet the customer needs.
