Task 2
Porter Generic strategies
This group uses a combination of cost leadership, distinctiveness, and focus tactics to
overcome competitive pressures. Achieve cost, differentiation, focus, customer base, and
revenue growth goals by concentrating on the utmost suitable and targeted development
strategies grounded on three major strategic streams (
Lu et al
., 2013). The Tata Group
employs aggressive growth strategies to meet its growth goals, including market penetration,
product development, market development, and diversification.
Cost leadership
Cost leadership strategies use cost cutting methods to gain competitive advantage. Cost
leadership is a crucial overall goal for the Tata Group across many consumer segments. The
In most nations, the middle class are the majority of the global consumer market, so Tata
Group can increase its market share by targeting the middle class. Middle-class consumers
are frequently very price sensitive, so cost leadership is the best strategy to satisfy their needs
(
Moon et al.,
2015).
Differentiation
Using differentiation as a competitive advantage is a common strategy. A supplementary
generic approach based on product differentiation can help the Tata Group expand its client
base. In order to differentiate itself from its competitors, Tata Group advertises its products
using a common differentiation strategy. Since the brand is established, flavorful, and has a
strong presence, the company uses uniqueness as a strategy to lessen competition (
Shah,
2014). To differentiate itself from its competitors, the Tata Group invested heavily in
marketing, advertising, and celebrity endorsements.
Focus strategy
Concentration is a third common strategy used in competition. This forces businesses to
concentrate on particular expanding niche markets. When businesses use focus strategies,
they use niche marketing to obtain a competitive edge and target particular market segments.
The Tata Group implements a strategy that prioritises delivering goods and services at the
lowest possible cost. Serving the demands of the most economical and narrow market
segments is part of a low-cost focus approach. The taste, size, and design of the products that
best meet the demands and requirements of the client are taken into consideration when
implementing a best value focus strategy (
Shah, 2018).

When an organization has the chance to increase its market share in its current sector, it will
employ market penetration strategies. This takes into account the present climate and a sales-
oriented approach. Increased sales touch points, direct customer targeting, improved dealer
networks, higher customer lifetime values, higher customer cart shares of total spending, can
all help achieve market penetration.
Market Development
Ratan Tata uses market development techniques to expand the markets and distribution
channels for its present products (
Srivastava et al.,
2021). This entails expanding into new
local and international areas as well as collaborating with related businesses to promote our
current products.
Product Development
Tata Ratan creates new goods for existing markets or enhances existing items with additional
features during the product development process. One of the most notable instances of a
business adopting a product development strategy is Microsoft's regular release of new
versions of Windows Office. The product's target market and target customer are largely
unchanged, but the company keeps releasing updated versions of the product to appeal to
existing markets.
Diversification
Tata Ratan might use a diversification strategy if the product and the market are both
uncharted territory for the business. When a business discovers potential in related or
unrelated areas, it employs diversification tactics. Because the company was new to both the
product and consumer markets, it was necessary to develop a sales and revenue model that
was entirely different from the one utilised for the corporate productivity business.
BCG matrix
The BCG Growth Share Matrix's four primary quadrants are Stars (High Market Growth,
High Market Share), Cash Cows (Low Market Growth, Low Market Share), and Emerging
Markets (Low Market Growth, Low Market Share). Question Mark (Rapid Market Growth,
Low Market Share), Dog (High Market Share), and Dog are the four main quadrants of the
BCG Growth Share Matrix. Selling Dogs and deciding whether to keep or sell Question
Marks is the best course of action (
Subramanian, 2022).
Question Marks
Products in the question-mark quadrant come from markets that are expanding quickly but
hold modest market shares. The most difficult product to manage, In order for Question Mark
4 | P a g e
to increase its market share, substantial funding and resources are needed. Investments in
question marks are typically financed with cash flows from the cash cow quadrant.
Dogs
The markets for the products in the dog quadrant are slow-growing and have lower product
market shares. Products in the dog quadrant can frequently support themselves and produce a
profit, but never those in the star quadrant(
Tripathi and Kumar, 2020). Companies typically
place their products in the dog quadrant unless they are used to complement another product
or to compete with it.
Stars
Products in the star's quadrant are available in rapidly expanding markets where market share
counts. Products in the Star Quadrant are industry leaders and require significant investments
to maintain market share, spur growth, and preserve competitive advantage.
Cash Cows
The marketplaces for the products in the cash cow quadrant are small and have large product
market shares. Products in the cash cow quadrant are regarded as market leaders. The product
has already received significant investment; further investment is not necessary to preserve its
position.
GE/McKinsey matrix
Protect position: This entails making investments to maintain the market leadership
and quick expansion of the Tata Group.
Build carefully: To become more competitive, Tata Group buys limited-strength
specialities. We will pursue a market exit strategy if there is no opportunity for
sustained growth or a competitive advantage.
Invest to build: The Tata Group makes investments to develop its strengths and
strengthen its position in the market. Vulnerable areas should be managed.
Manage for income: Invest in growing industries with favourable profit and return
prospects and minimal risk. The most lucrative goods must be improved to preserve
profits(
Verma and Srivastava, 2011).
Harvest or Expand: Look for Tata Group's ability to expand with minimal investment.
If not, the Tata Group will need to reduce costs in order to recover investment.
Divest: Going forward, this demands no new investments or expense savings. In order
to release the company's monetary value, we intend to sell our company.

Preserve position and refocus: It is essential to think about the prospect of reorienting
the company in order to channel the Tata Group's current strength toward new
markets.
