Study of Statement.
The Bajaj Group is amongst the top 10 business houses in India. Its footprint stretches over a
wide range of industries, spanning automobiles (two-wheelers and three-wheelers), home
appliances, lighting, iron and steel, insurance, travel and finance.
The group's flagship company, Bajaj Auto, is ranked as the world's fourth largest two- and
three- wheeler manufacturer and the Bajaj brand is well-known across several countries in
Latin America, Africa, Middle East, South and South East Asia.
Founded in 1926, at the height of India's movement for independence from the British, the
group has an illustrious history. The integrity, dedication, resourcefulness and determination
to succeed which are characteristic of the group today, are often traced back to its birth
during those days of relentless devotion to a common cause. Jamnalal Bajaj, founder of the
group, was a close confidant and disciple of Mahatma Gandhi. In fact, Gandhi ji had adopted
him as his son. This close relationship and his deep involvement in the independence
movement did not leave Jamnalal Bajaj with much time to spend on his newly launched
business venture.
His son, Kamalnayan Bajaj, then 27, took over the reins of business in 1942. He too was
close to Gandhiji and it was only after Independence in 1947, that he was able to give his full
attention to the business. Kamalnayan Bajaj not only consolidated the group, but also
diversified into various manufacturing activities.

CHAPTER 3
LITERATURE & REVIEW
The Literature and Consumer Views of Satisfaction While the literature contains significant
differences in the definition of satisfaction, all the definitions share some common elements.
When examined as a whole, three general components can be identified.
1) consumer satisfaction is a response (emotional or cognitive).
2) The response pertains to a particular focus (expectations, product, experience, etc.).
3) the response occurs at a particular time (after consumption, after choice, based on
accumulated experience, etc.).Consumer responses followed a general pattern similar to
the literature. Satisfaction was comprised of three basic components, a response pertaining
to a particular focus determined at a particular time BY Joan L. Giese, Assistant Professor,
Department of Marketing ,Washington State University.
The lack of a consensus definition for satisfaction creates three serious problems for
consumer satisfaction research: selecting an appropriate definition for a given study;
operationalizing the definition; and interpreting and comparing empirical results. These
three problems affect the basic structure and outcomes of marketing research and
theory testing.
