* Large and Diverse Market

The Indian rural market is large and diverse. Therefore, the density of shops to market the products is less when compared to the total population.

* Agriculture is the major source of Income

The main source of income of the rural people is agriculture. If crops fail, then their income gets affected automatically and this reduces their purchasing power.

* Traditional Outlook

People in rural areas are traditional in their thinking; they are superstitious in their beliefs. This trend too is changing because of increasing literacy levels among the rural youth.

* Diverse Socioeconomic Background

Rural consumers are spread across different states in distant parts of India. Thus, their social norms and economic status differs widely from each other.

* Change in Standard of Living

Rural population has in general a low literacy rate, low per capita income and thus low savings. Many of the rural people's standards of living are below the poverty line and they are also socially backward. There is, however, a change for the better on these fronts as a result of reduced tax

    The rural areas however present problems that are a contradictory paradox of its natural resource endowment. As noted by Chinsman (1998), rural communities are seriously marginalized in terms of most basic elements of development. In addition, the inhabitants tend to live at the margin of existence and opportunities. Most rural communities lack potable water, electricity, health care, educational and recreational facilities and motorable roads. They experience high population growth rates; high infant and maternal mortality, low life expectancy and a peasant population that lacks modern equipment that can guarantee sustainable exploitation of the natural resources on which they live.…

    Rural market is getting an importance because of the saturation of the urban market. As due to the competition in the urban market, the market is more or so saturated as most of the capacity of the purchasers have been targeted by the marketers. So the marketers are looking for extending their product categories to an unexplored market i.e. the rural market. This has also led to the CSR activities being done by the corporate to help the poor people attain some wealth to spend on their product categories. Here we can think of HLL (now, HUL) initiatives in the rural India. One of such project is the Project Shakti, which is not only helping their company attain some revenue but also helping the poor women of the village to attain some money which is surely going to increase their purchasing power. Also this will increase their brand loyalty as well as recognition in that area. Similarly we can think of the ITC E-Chaupal, which is helping the poor farmers get all the information about the weather as well as the market price of the food grains they are producing.In other view these activities are also helping the companies increase their brand value. So as it is given above the significance of the rural market has increased due to the saturation of the urban market as well as in such conditions the company which will lead the way will be benefited as shown by the success of HUL and ITC initiatives.…
