ABOUT SOCIAL MARKETING

6
Social marketing is the systematic application of marketing, along with

other concepts and techniques, to achieve specific behavioral goals for

a social good.  Social marketing can be applied to promote merit goods,

or to make a society avoid demerit goods and thus to promote society's

well being as a whole. For example, this may include asking people not

to smoke in public areas, asking them to use seat belts, or prompting to

make them follow speed limits.

Although "social marketing" is sometimes seen only as using standard

commercial marketing practices to achieve non-commercial goals, this is

an over-simplification.

The primary aim of social marketing is "social good", while in

"commercial marketing" the aim is primarily "financial". This does not

mean that commercial marketers can not contribute to achievement of

social good.

Increasingly, social marketing is being described as having "two

parents"—a "social parent" = social sciences and social policy, and a

"marketing parent" = commercial and public sector marketing

approaches.

Beginning in the 1970s, it has in the last decade matured into a much

more integrative and inclusive discipline that draws on the full range of

social sciences and social policy approaches as well as marketing.

Social marketing must not be confused with social media marketing.

INTRODUCTION

1.1 GENERAL INTRODUCTION

PHYSICAL CERTIFICATES - THE TRADITIONAL WAY

The Indian capital market has seen an unprecedented boom in its

activity in the last decade. We can now boast of a very large investor

population and substantial volumes of trade. However, this surge in

activity has brought with it, numerous problems that threaten the very

survival of the Capital market in the long run. A closer inspection of the

problems would reveal that most of them arise due to the intrinsic

nature of paper based trading and settlement.

This century-old system of trading and settlement requires handling of

huge volumes ofpaper leading to increased costs and inefficiencies.

Simultaneously, they expose the investors to greater risks putting them

at a disadvantage. Some of these areas are:

 Unwarranted delay in transfer of shares. It takes 30 to 60 days for

the investors to get

the shares lodged in their name;

8
 Possibility of forgery on various documents leading to bad

deliveries, legal disputes

etc;

 Theft of shares leading to defective title in shares purchased and

subsequent

litigation;

 Prevalence of fake certificates in the market;

 Mutilation or loss of share certificates in transit;

 Increased transaction costs due to stamp duty, fake shares,

rejection by registrars, etc.

This has made the investors, both retail and institutional, wary of

entering the Indian capital market. In this scenario, it was felt that the

getting up of a depository and the introduction of scrip less trading and

settlement is imperative for the efficient functioning of the market.

The Indian capital market has witnessed numerous changes in the

recent

past. Historically stock market booms have always resulted in a number

of problems for

9
the lay investor. Sometimes, the problem may magnify them and

threatens to engulf the entire capital market. A close introspection of

these problems will reveal that most of them are due to intrinsic nature

of paper based trading and settlement. All this may have driven away

many potential investors and Foreign Institutional Investors.

Dematerialization of shares is looked upon as the remedy for the ‘paper’

based problems.

With effect from august 19, 1998 SEBI has granted certificate of

registration of

Central Depository Services (I) Ltd. (CDSL).

Yet even with demat, from the point of view of investors there

are numerous problems . Here Wallet Watch introduces you to setting

up of a demat account and introduction of scrip less trading and

settlement. There are numerous benefits of this scrip less trading and

settlement, which Wallet Watch has discussed in detail.

Providing and enabling environment to foster growth and learning for

our employees

Company’s mission:

10
To judged by their sales and earnings growth rates than on the absolute

value of their sales and earnings. Look for companies that consistently

grow faster than there peers.

Investors prefer companies that increase profit margins -- the

percentage of sales that they keep -- every year. This is accomplished

either by lowering expenses or raising prices. Look for companies that

consistently find ways to squeeze more profits out of sales than their

peers.

The financial health of a company is dependent on a combination

of profitability, short-term liquidity and long term liquidity. Companies,

which are profitable, but have poor short term or long term liquidity

measures, do not survive the troughs of the trade cycle

2.5 Major Player of the Industry

For ICICI the past half has been a trying period more so because of the

adverse environmental conditions such as the depressed equity

markets and the volatile currency markets. However, its retail thrust and

a perceptible shift in financing from manufacturing projects to corporate

finance will put it in good stead for the quarters to come. Its growing

importance in the telecom and infrastructural sectors, which have huge

potential, will be a key driver of growth for the future

service of the Mutual Fund. ICICI Capital Services Ltd. and the normal

tendency of the customer are both investing in shares and in Mutual

Funds are one and the same. So for this ICICI Capital Services Ltd.,

should create an awareness of what exactly mean by Mutual Funds and

all other services of ICICI Capital Services Ltd.

same should be taken place with no delay and this can be cross
