PREFACE
The light-emitting diode (LED) is one of today's most energy-efficient and rapidly-developing
lighting technologies. Quality LED light bulbs last longer, are more durable, and offer comparable or
better light quality than other types of lighting. LUMEX LED’s is one such LED manufacturing
company which not only provide low priced quality LED lights but also provide with 5years
manufacturer’s warranty which is higher than any branded company can provide.
This report entitled “CUSTOMER PERCEPTION ON BRANDED AND NON-BRANDED LED’S IN ODISHA”
tries to identify the need of LED lights in today’s scenario since there is a high need of saving the
energy for future generations. LED lights save almost about 50% of energy and give brightest light.
In this project an attempt is made to understand the customer need and preferences about the
branded LED and non- branded LED and to identify their level of awareness regarding the utility of
LED lights.
In the first section of the project there is a company overview .
In the second section of the report the research methodology and its techniques has been listed
down
In the third section the research result and the analysis and interpretation is done.
There may be some scope for improvement but serious efforts have been put into to get the best
results.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
India’s LED lighting market is currently at a nascent stage. Though the LED market is already
growing at a robust pace over the last 2-3 years, the country offers huge growth potential,
especially over the next 5-10 years. Increasing adoption of LED lighting is being witnessed across
commercial and residential sectors, government projects, upcoming smart building projects, etc.
According to a recently published report by TechSci Research “India LED Lighting Market Forecast &
Opportunities, 2020”, the country’s LED lighting market is projected to register a growth of over
32% during 2015-20.

INTRODUCTION
A LED light is a light-emitting diode (LED) item which is assembled into a light (or light) for use in
lighting purposes. LED lights have a lifespan and electrical effectiveness which are a few times
longer than incandescent lights, and essentially more productive than most fluorescent lights, with
some chips ready to radiate more than 300 lumens for each watt (as guaranteed by Cree and some
other LED makers). The LED light market is anticipated to develop by more than twelve-fold
throughout the following decade, from $2 billion in the start of 2014 to $25 billion in 2023, a
compound yearly development rate (CAGR) of 25%.As of 2016, LEDs utilize just around 10% of the
energy an incandescent light requires.
Like incandescent lights and unlike most fluorescent lights (e.g. tubes and minimal fluorescent lights
or CFLs), LEDs come to full shine without requirement for a warm-up time; the life of fluorescent
lighting is likewise diminished by frequent exchanging on and off. The underlying expense of LED is
normally higher. Degradation of LED color and packaging materials decreases light yield to some
degree after some time.
A LED light bundling may demonstrate the lumen yield, power utilization in watts, shading
temperature in kelvins or depiction (e.g. "warm white"), working temperature range, and now and
then the equal wattage of a radiant light of comparative brilliant yield.
Most LEDs don't emit light in all directions, and their directional attributes influence the
configuration of lights, omni -directional lights which transmit light over a 360° point are turning
out to be more regular.
LED chips need controlled direct present (DC) electrical force; a fitting circuit is required to change
over alternating current from the supply to the managed low voltage direct current utilized by the
LEDs. LEDs are affected by high temperature, so LED lights commonly have warmth heat dissipation
components, for example, heat sinks and cooling fins.

MARKETING ANDDISTRIDUTION CHANNEL
It is often questioned why does any company afford to provide low prices even if it is of superior
quality ?
The answer to this question is the mode of distribution it follows for which it incurs low cost in
transit.
There arevarious levels of distribution:
 Zerolevel
 One level
 Two level
 Three level
ZERO LEVEL ONE LEVEL TWO LEVEL THREE LEVEL FOUR LEVEL
20
LUMEX LED’s DISTRIBUTION CHANNEL
LUMEX led follows non trade method of distribution where it engages to deliver the product
directly from the manufacturer to the end users.
There are no other intermediary in between the manufacturer and the consumers , therefore there
are no conflicts between the channel members. LUMEX LED’s follows zero level marketing channel
which is otherwise known as direct marketing and this is the reason for which it affords to charge
less price for the products it delivers since there are no provision to charge commission by the
intermediaries .
ZERO LEVEL CHANNEL
21
LUMEX LED’S SALES PROCESS
LUMEX LED’s follows a conventional method of selling.The sales process of LUMEX LED’s are
mentioned below:
 Product knowledge
 Lead generation
 Need assessment
 Following the lead
 Closing the sales
 Post sale services
 PRODUCTKNOWLEDGE
Product knowledge is an essential sales skill. Understanding your products' features allows you to
present their benefits accurately and persuasively. Customers respond to enthusiastic sales staff
who are passionate about their products and eager to share the benefits with them.
The sales force of LUMEX LED’s have immense knowledge about the insights of the products and
this makes it successful to sell the products in heterogeneous markets.
 LEAD GENERATION
Process of collecting names and contactinformation about qualified prospects which will be
contacted by the salespeople for generating orders. It usually involves direct response advertising
and telemarketing.
LUMEX LED’S generates leads from the list of architects and other potential business projects and
contact them through tele -calling and telemarketing .
22
 NEED ASSESSMENT
A needs assessment is a systematic process for determining and addressing needs, or "gaps"
between current conditions and desired conditions or "wants". The need assessment is the most
important step in sales process but it is the most neglected one.
LUMEX LED’s put forth most of its effort in understanding and assessing the need of the target
customers and tries to fulfill them . It monitors the needs on a regular basis and come up with their
requirements.
 FOLLOWING THELEADS
Following the leads is another process in selling where after identifying the potential leads they are
followed or convinced to purchase or to create a deal with the company. This is a process of
maintaining relationship between the leads and the sales person and building a trust between them
so that they get motivated to purchase the products the company is offering.
LUMEX LED’s build relationships with most of its clients in a very delicate way.
 CLOSING THE SALES

LITERATURE REVIEW

LITERATURE REVIEW
Lighting accounts for roughly one-fifth of all global electricity consumption, yet the major share of
this energy is emitted not as light but as radiated heat from inefficient bulbs. Compact fluorescent
Lights (CFLs) were the initial substitute for incandescent bulbs, but certain characteristics of CFLs,
light emitting diodes (LEDs) will be used dramatically in the next few years because of its low
energy consumption and long life. This paper presents a survey of literature on the light (LEDs) as
energy efficient light bulbs due to their high efficiency. The literature shows an increasing interest
in this subject for the last decade, where the enhancement of LED lighting systems using various
controllers has been widely investigated. Several technical issues related to thermal properties and
LED array configurations have been highlighted. Moreover, some of the developments in LED driver
technology have been summarized.
According to the 2011 European Commission green paper up to 50% of total electricity
consumption in office buildings is used for lighting and the comparable figure for residential
buildings is 10-12%. Overall, lighting represents a significant proportion of electricity usage and the
worldwide drive to conserve energy and reduce CO2 emissions is driving the adoption of low energy
lighting technologies. In 2010 the global lighting industry was estimated to have revenues of $90B
growing to $130B by 2020. In Europe alone the industry is estimated to have revenues of $25B and
employ over 150,000 people (European Commission). The emerging markets such as India
represent considerable opportunities for growth as they transition to electricity based lighting
solutions.
The traditional incandescent lamp has been in production for over one hundred years and, although
many value the quality of its light, its very low efficiency is becoming increasingly expensive for
users. Consequently many countries have introduced phased legislation to ban incandescent lights
and replace them with higher efficiency technologies such as fluorescent, LED (Light Emitting Diode)
and OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode). LED lighting technology is attractive because of its high
efficiency, long lifetime and the range of applications: backlighting for displays, automotive
and general lighting. In recent years there has been considerable investment in lighting
technologies with a total estimated $800M of venture capital invested in 2008-2010. This does not
count the considerable investments by established players such as Cree, Osramand Philips.The
remainder of this note will concentrate on the application of LEDs to general lighting applications
Incandescent light bulbs are now banned in the EU, while energy-saving lamps remain a bone of
contention. In 2016, it will be lights out for halogen bulbs over 10 watts as well. LEDs (light-emitting
diodes) therefore have the best chance of becoming the light source of the future. Experts reckon
that LED retrofit lamps for use in standard bulb fittings will overtake traditional energy-saving bulbs
for the first time from 2015. By 2020 it is predicted that LEDs will have captured between 88 and 90
percent of the lighting market. The tiny diodes offer a whole host of advantages as the most
environmentally friendly source of light – they contain no harmful substances, consume less energy
and, with a lifetime of between 15,000 and 30,000 hours, last longer than conventional light
sources. They also work at full brightness as soon as you flick the switc

BRANDED COMPANIES.
 EXTENDED POST SALE SERVICES.
 EYE FRIENDLY AND HEAT RESISTANCE
PROPERTY UNLIKE OTHER BRANDS.
WEAKNESS
 NON BRANDED LED
 PRICES ARE ALMOST COMAREABLE
WITH THE MARKET LEADRER SYSKA

MARKET IF IT PROMOTES THROUGH
ADVERTISEMENTS AND NEWSPAPER
MEDIA.
THREAT
 MANY BRANDED CMPANIES LIKE
SYSKA, PHILIPS PRODUCTS ARE
AVAILABLE I LOWER PRICE THAN
LUMEX.
 THE UJALA SCHEME BY GOVERNMENT
IS A MAJOR THREAT TO NON-BRANDED
LED's LIKE LUMEX LED'S.
61
LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
 The research was restricted to odisha market only.
 Most of the respondants generally prefer branded lights when it comes to LED.
 LUMEX LED is not known to many of the respondents so their choices and preferences
vary differently.
 LUMEX led's generally go for non trade method of selling and only focuses on the
contractors and builders while neglect to dealers and households.
62
SUGGESTIONS TO THE COMPANY
 It should have followed the penetration pricing policy
 It should have included properdistribution strategy and include the channel members.
 Proper competitors analysis is much needed.
 It should have proper integration of marketing mix.

CONCLUSION
It’s amazing to think that just a few years ago, many people thought of LEDs as nothing
more than the tiny red lights in our laser pointers but my, how the times have changed!
With more and more people realizing the energy-efficiency benefits of LED lighting, it seems
that everything from headlights to TVs to even clothing and wallpaper are now being lit up
by the versatile lighting technology. Unlike incandescents, LEDs are super-compact, don’t
emit heat and use just a fraction of the energy – plus their flexible, plastic design allows
them to be used in a wonderful variety of innovative ways that other types of lighting just
can’t touch. We’ve seen so many weird and wonderful uses for LED lighting lately that we
decided to put together a roundup of our favorite examples for your viewing pleasure

  • 4. 4 PREFACE The light-emitting diode (LED) is one of today's most energy-efficient and rapidly-developing lighting technologies. Quality LED light bulbs last longer, are more durable, and offer comparable or better light quality than other types of lighting. LUMEX LED’s is one such LED manufacturing company which not only provide low priced quality LED lights but also provide with 5years manufacturer’s warranty which is higher than any branded company can provide. This report entitled “CUSTOMER PERCEPTION ON BRANDED AND NON-BRANDED LED’S IN ODISHA” tries to identify the need of LED lights in today’s scenario since there is a high need of saving the energy for future generations. LED lights save almost about 50% of energy and give brightest light. In this project an attempt is made to understand the customer need and preferences about the branded LED and non- branded LED and to identify their level of awareness regarding the utility of LED lights. In the first section of the project there is a company overview . In the second section of the report the research methodology and its techniques has been listed down In the third section the research result and the analysis and interpretation is done. There may be some scope for improvement but serious efforts have been put into to get the best results.
  • 5. 5 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY India’s LED lighting market is currently at a nascent stage. Though the LED market is already growing at a robust pace over the last 2-3 years, the country offers huge growth potential, especially over the next 5-10 years.

  • 7. 7 INTRODUCTION A LED light is a light-emitting diode (LED) item which is assembled into a light (or light) for use in lighting purposes. LED lights have a lifespan and electrical effectiveness which are a few times longer than incandescent lights, and essentially more productive than most fluorescent lights, with some chips ready to radiate more than 300 lumens for each watt (as guaranteed by Cree and some other LED makers). The LED light market is anticipated to develop by more than twelve-fold throughout the following decade, from $2 billion in the start of 2014 to $25 billion in 2023, a compound yearly development rate (CAGR) of 25%.As of 2016, LEDs utilize just around 10% of the energy an incandescent light requires. Like incandescent lights and unlike most fluorescent lights (e.g. tubes and minimal fluorescent lights or CFLs), LEDs come to full shine without requirement for a warm-up time; the life of fluorescent lighting is likewise diminished by frequent exchanging on and off. The underlying expense of LED is normally higher. Degradation of LED color and packaging materials decreases light yield to some degree after some time. A LED light bundling may demonstrate the lumen yield, power utilization in watts, shading temperature in kelvins or depiction (e.g. "warm white"), working temperature range, and now and then the equal wattage of a radiant light of comparative brilliant yield. Most LEDs don't emit light in all directions, and their directional attributes influence the configuration of lights, omni -directional lights which transmit light over a 360° point are turning out to be more regular. LED chips need controlled direct present (DC) electrical force; a fitting circuit is required to change over alternating current from the supply to the managed low voltage direct current utilized by the LEDs. LEDs are affected by high temperature, so LED lights commonly have warmth heat dissipation components, for example, heat sinks and cooling fins.

Marketers use customer complaint to assess their performance and use after sales services to show customer commit
  • 24. 24 LITERATURE REVIEW Lighting accounts for roughly one-fifth of all global electricity consumption, yet the major share of this energy is emitted not as light but as radiated heat from inefficient bulbs. Compact fluorescent Lights (CFLs) were the initial substitute for incandescent bulbs, but certain characteristics of CFLs, light emitting diodes (LEDs) will be used dramatically in the next few years because of its low energy consumption and long life. This paper presents a survey of literature on the light (LEDs) as energy efficient light bulbs due to their high efficiency. The literature shows an increasing interest in this subject for the last decade, where the enhancement of LED lighting systems using various controllers has been widely investigated. Several technical issues related to thermal properties and LED array configurations have been highlighted. Moreover, some of the developments in LED driver technology have been summarized. According to the 2011 European Commission green paper up to 50% of total electricity consumption in office buildings is used for lighting and the comparable figure for residential buildings is 10-12%. Overall, lighting represents a significant proportion of electricity usage and the worldwide drive to conserve energy and reduce CO2 emissions is driving the adoption of low energy lighting technologies. In 2010 the global lighting industry was estimated to have revenues of $90B growing to $130B by 2020. In Europe alone the industry is estimated to have revenues of $25B and employ over 150,000 people (European Commission). The emerging markets such as India represent considerable opportunities for growth as they transition to electricity based lighting solutions. The traditional incandescent lamp has been in production for over one hundred years and, although many value the quality of its light, its very low efficiency is becoming increasingly expensive for users. Consequently many countries have introduced phased legislation to ban incandescent lights and replace them with higher efficiency technologies such as fluorescent, LED (Light Emitting Diode) and OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode). LED lighting technology is attractive because of its high efficiency, long lifetime and the range of applications: backlighting for displays, automotive and general lighting. In recent years there has been considerable investment in lighting technologies with a total estimated $800M of venture capital invested in 2008-2010. This does not count the considerable investments by established players such as Cree, Osramand Philips.The remainder of this note will concentrate on the application of LEDs to general lighting applications Incandescent light bulbs are now banned in the EU, while energy-saving lamps remain a bone of contention. In 2016, it will be lights out for halogen bulbs over 10 watts as well. LEDs (light-emitting diodes) therefore have the best chance of becoming the light source of the future. Experts reckon that LED retrofit lamps for use in standard bulb fittings will overtake traditional energy-saving bulbs for the first time from 2015. By 2020 it is predicted that LEDs will have captured between 88 and 90 percent of the lighting market. The tiny diodes offer a whole host of advantages as the most environmentally friendly source of light – they contain no harmful substances, consume less energy and, with a lifetime of between 15,000 and 30,000 hours, last longer than conventional light sources. They also work at full brightness as soon as you flick the switc

  • 63. 63 CONCLUSION It’s amazing to think that just a few years ago, many people thought of LEDs as nothing more than the tiny red lights in our laser pointers but my, how the times have changed! With more and more people realizing the energy-efficiency benefits of LED lighting, it seems that everything from headlights to TVs to even clothing and wallpaper are now being lit up by the versatile lighting technology.
