The proposed work introduces experiential marketing and sensory marketing as a new paradigm in the field
of marketing; attention to the five senses (sight, smell, hearing, taste, touch) and the effect of these senses on
consumer behavior are studied. So that it can be ascertained if the stimulation of senses affects the
consumers’ purchase and influences the consumers to make thoughtful buying decisions, would like to study
the environmental constraints and the basic framework in which consumers buy different commodities and if
they follow the sensory stimulation provided through the modern marketers, would also like to study the
most influential mode of stimulation senses which attracts consumers and acts as catalyst to their appeal. The
study is based at Delhi/NCR.

Research Gap
The Literature review suggested that limited study has been done on the impact of sensory
stimulation on consumers buying in Indian organised retail sector.
The Literature review suggested that few substantial researches had been done on the
comparison of traditional methods of advertising and sensory branding in India.
There is a need to find out the most effective sensory stimulation so that it can be targeted
for the benefits of marketers.
