18. Pricing Strategy
The assignment is made on TATA motor company, originated from india,
supposed to take the role of marketing analyst on the TATA,s decision of
launching a low cost car name Nano.
There are three most common pricing strategies used by managers, each of
these strategy satisfies certain objectives, below are explain each of the
strategy and objectives it is able to achieve.
1.Pricing is called skimming pricing when it is charged above the industry
regular prices and it is kept on higher side, objective of such pricing is to
recover early cash from the market or serve a certain niche in the market,
moreover such pricing is also used to provide prestigious image of the
brand.18
19. •At par pricing is charged when price is kept at same as of industry trend and such prices
are charges for “ me too” kind of products. Such pricing is dangerous in way that
customer's do see any perceived difference of the brand from other.
2.When prices are kept lower than the industry trend, such pricing is called
penetration pricing and such pricing is used either for market development or
penetrating in the market by encouraging people to use the product.
For eg-In case of TATA NANO, management used penetration pricing, since their objective
was market development by encouraging those people to use cars, who were previously
unable to buy cars because of high prices. They kept the prices of cars at a very lower
side, around 1,00,000 rupees, and by charging such price they penetrate the market , to
reach the consumer which were unable to afford the car thus creating their kind of
customers, they increased the number of prospect customers and make low income
people came into car users club.
19
20. Pros of this Strategy
Make the adoption process more faster,
when organization charges low prices on
their products .
Another benefit is that in low price
category organization would not have to
face more competition in initial stage.
In case of NANO, if some want to enter
into such segment they would not able to
meet that price range easily and this way
competitors will kept away.
Cons of this Strategy
•Increase in price due to political or
economic reason leads to dissatisfaction
among customers.
•The low price affects the perception
about the product quality about the
company and brand.
•Continuous low price associates the
image of the product and people start
avoiding the product and considers it as
a cheap quality.
