This company has three objectives in price wise:product, quality and leadership. This company gets success in all these objectives. The price policy of Videocon is formulated keeping in my mind he fact that majority of Videocon consumers belong to upper class and upper middle class family. Therefore, the pricing policy if formulated in such a way that it is affordable by all classes of people and it not a burden on their income. The top management of the company formulates all policies.

So, in order to inform and pursued our potential and existing customers in his cutthroat competition. Advertisement is always important weapon.

QUALITIES OF ADVERTISIENG
After setting, the objective of advertising the advertiser must have some distinctive qualities, which become helpful in fulfillment of objectives, which are as follows; Public Presentation:Advertising is a highly public mode of communication. Its public nature confers kind of legitimacy on the product and suggest a standardize offering. Because many people receive the same message, buyers know that their motives for purchasing the product will be publicly understood. Pervasiveness:Advertising is pervasive medium that permits the seller to repeat a message much time. It also allows the buyers to receive and compare the message of various competitors. Large-scale advertising by a seller says something positive about the sellers size, popularity and success. Amplified Expressiveness :Advertising provides opportunities for dramatizing the company and colour. Sometimes however, the tools at expressiveness many dilute or distract from the message.
41
Prince dudhatra
Impersonality :Advertising cannot be as compel as accompany sales representative. The audience does not feel obligated to pay attention or responded. Advertisement is able to carry on only monologue, not a dialogue, with the audience. In Videocon group of companies all these qualities are maintained in their advertisement.
