AS PER WEBSITE

 

Vision

Videocon’s mission: a reflection of continuity and change

Videocon’s mission expression has been crafted to envelope both extant and emerging realities:

“To delight and deliver beyond expectation through ingenious strategy, intrepid entrepreneurship, improved technology, innovative products, insightful marketing and inspired thinking about the future.”

A breakdown of the statement above reveals a ‘means and end’ approach, where the end is articulated at the beginning with the means linked to it.

“To delight and deliver beyond expectation…”: the end

This segment not only underlines the importance of the ultimate goal - customer satisfaction (‘delight’) and ultimate target - the customer, but also of intermediate processes and principals, which have contributed to building a robust, dependable Videocon value chain (‘deliver’). As a result of its focus on developing loyal customers and reliable associates, Videocon is able to exceed expectations.

 “…through ingenious strategy…”: the means

In the cutthroat world of today, it is only by taking recourse to advance planning and strategy that a business can hope to survive. Although textbook strategy has its uses, reproducing it in verbatim for the real world would be foolish because of the absence of textbook conditions. Thus, there is a need for a bounded rationality, a spontaneity and improvisation that is flexible enough for scenarios both imaginable and unimaginable. Videocon’s ingenious manoeuvres are actually flexi-strategy that abstracts from shifting ground conditions and decides game-plans, or sometimes changes the rules of the game.

“…intrepid entrepreneurship…”: the means

An enterprise with the odds stacked against it makes great business sense. This is because higher the obstacles, lower the number of players likely to be active in that field - thus, fetching extraordinary returns. The only requirement is a bold and confident attitude willing to brave the odds. Videocon’s foray into oil and gas is a bold and intrepid endeavour that arises from immense faith on the surefooted competence of the company’s in-house managerial talent.

“…improved technology…”: the means

Technology is no more a premium input; it has become the bare minimum in recent years. Rapid advances have only fuelled this phenomenon. Videocon is extremely vigilant in shunting out dated technology and replacing it with the best-in-class offers of the times.

“…innovative products…”: the means

Product development, innovation and customisation are the tools Videocon uses to stay ahead of the competition. This is because a continuous stream of innovative products excites the market and enhances brand recall. A strategy that Videocon banks on a lot, especially on the domestic front.

 “…insightful marketing…”: the means

The market share battle scene has long shifted from technology and processes to the psyche of the customer. This means that those with deeper insights into the elusive mind of the buyer are likely to dominate. Videocon is reinforcing marketing strengths to read better the pulse of the market and help create products that map perfectly into customer preferences.

“…inspired thinking about the future.”: the means

The future is unpredictable, but not doing anything about it is fraught with grave risk. Videocon extrapolates future trends on the basis of current changes in technology and preferences as well as sheer gut feel. Fine-tuned business instincts are worth their weight in gold, lots of it. The company has perfected its practice almost into an art form with some calculated gambles like oil and gas proving to be absolute money-spinners.

Values

Shri Nandlal Madhavlal Dhoot, the founder of the Videocon Group, completed his education in Ahmednagar and Pune. He was a successful sugarcane and cotton cultivator. As a next logical step to vertical integration, he boldly took upon an entrepreneurial venture by importing machinery from Europe to set up the Gangapur Sakhar Karkhana (Sugar Mill) in 1955. Those were the times when the village did not even have electricity. Thus was unleashed an Industrial Revolution.


The die was cast. Over the years, Nandlalji's path-breaking attitude found expression in a myriad ways, earning him the well-deserved reputation of the pioneer of industrial activity in Marathwada India.


In early 80's Nandlalji initiated his three sons - Venugopal, Rajkumar and Pradeep into business. Through a technical tie up with Toshiba Corporation of Japan, he launched India's first world-class color Television: Videocon. Today, Videocon is household name across the nation- India's No. 1 brand of Consumer Electronics & Home Appliances, trusted by over 50 million people to improve their quality of life.
