1>General Take Of Godrej on Competition in industry :Godrej group‘s response to competition has been mixed –from being highly proactive to being lethargic to change. As a result it is now a laggard in several fields where it was the leader a decade and a half back.
A glaring example of this is in the refrigerator industry. It was the clear leader in this field before the
Korean giants LG and Samsung moved in.
2>Present Scenario OF Godrej : Currently it has been pushed to the third spot, although it is still the
No.1 in terms of brand recognition and image. This clearly shows the inability of the Godrej management to capitalize on the excellent brand image.
3>Strategy To Handle Competition :
Godrej Consumer Products Ltd (GCPL) has adopted a two pronged strategy for rapid growth –
 Diversifying risks , and
 Tapping new markets.
This strategy has helped the company achieve higher than industry

    Therefore at a specific point the product performance exceeds the market need. As far as customers agree that the money they spend for a product is an overall good investment it works out. But if the feeling rises that part of the product is not worth to pay for, they look for alternatives. At that point a disruptive innovation, as described before, has the possibility to get a foothold in the market by offering a product which is cheaper and serves the basic needs of the customer. A current example is the shift from normal fixed line phones to internet services like Skype. More and more customers are not satisfied with the rising prices of telecommunication services argued through a wider range of services. A lot of these services like video calls offered through telephone companies are not important for their customers. Therefore they look for alternatives that offer a smaller range of services for less the price of a fixed line service. In this case Skype is a disruptive innovation that is in a niche market since ten years but gets its foothold in the main telecommunication market through the fact that competitors overshoot their customer needs (Anthony 2007). Many examples are known where established market leader lost their leading position to unknown small competitors through a disruptive innovation. Christensen especially focuses on the disc drive industry in the United States. In his studies he unveiled why many established companies fail to invest in disruptive…

    When markets are expanding, we often assume we don’t have to think imaginatively about our businesses. Instead, we seek to outdo rivals simply by improving on what we’re already doing. The consequence: We increase the efficiency of making our products, rather than boosting the value those products deliver to customers. Myth 2: There is no competitive substitute for our industry’s major product. Believing that our products have no rivals makes our companies vulnerable to dramatic innovations from outside our industries—often by smaller, newer companies that are focusing on customer needs rather than the products themselves.…
