Q1-10 Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions.

The decade started slowly for the FMCG industry with just 6 percent growth between 2001 and 2005. The stock market wrote off the industry as a defensive play. Working for FMCG companies was no longer aspirational for IIM graduates. All of this has changed. Growth has accelerated to 17 percent and the industry has doubled in the last five years to reach Rs 1.3 lakh crore, The FMCG sector has been 2005 and 2010, many players outpaced the market, as the table on the right shows.

Significant changes in the Indian economic and industrial landscape have led to this change of fortune-reduced levels of taxation, easier import of materials and technology, reduced barriers to entry of foreign players, growing organizational maturity of Indian players, growth of media and, of course, the growing affluence and appetite for consumption of the Indian consumer.

Relatively few companies dominated the industry 10 years ago – Hindustan Unilever, Nestle, Britannia, Nirma. The Goldman Sachs BRIC report was a milestone event – it pulled India onto the front pages of global financial publications and onto the central agenda of global corporates. Today almost every global FMCG company makes significant investments in India. And they compete with aggressive Indian companies which have grown in size and organizational capabilities. The last decade has seen the emergence of several significant players in the Indian market – Dabur, Marico. Emami, CavinKare, L’ Oreal, Reckitt Benckiser, Pepsi, Coca-Cola, Parle.

Growth strategies are more complex. Companies have grown through acquisition widening their presence in D & E markets outside India, widening their portfolio. A typical Indian FMCG major has about 20-30 percent of its business from outside India, makes an acquisition once a year or once in two years, has a broad portfolio covering personal care, health care, foods and beverages and maybe home care. MNCs focus on their global categories – but increasingly adapt their offerings to compete more effectively.

Retail infrastructure has improved hugely with modern trade making fresh investments after pressing the ‘Stop’ button in 2008/09. We are also seeing the emergence of specialty retailers in categories such as cosmetics and meat products. This is enabling growth of products such as chilled and frozen food and prestige cosmetics and perfumes.
