In recent days, consumer India is at the point where there is a multiplicative effect of
income growth, aspiration to consume and a changed consumption, friendly ideology
social discourse across the income board, especially in rural India. Hence, the buying
behaviour of rural consumers has become a hot topic for discussion because rural India, in
recent days, is enthusiastically consuming every thing from shampoo to motor cycles and
this “rural predilection” is being considered as one of the significant topics of market
analysis. Besides, we know well that purchase decisions in Indian homes have become a
collective process with women and teenage children playing a major role on product and
brand choices. Decision making has become a joint process in the family, women is the
initiator andor product evaluator, man the financier and child, an influencer.
Hence the market analysts are adopting both the “product window” approach and
“consumer or people window” approach for getting an insight into the structure and
drivers of consumer demand, particularly in rural India. The first approach deals with the
perspective of “how much of what is being bought” and the latter deals with “how many of
what kind of people are buying”. The thrust is on not just what is being bought but also
who is buying and the analysis has to be made considering both “product segments” and
“consumer segments”.
