In India, the consumer is indeed king.

Therefore, the ability to raise or lower demand belongs to the consumer. In my opinion, the customer is king in India since more people want to purchase that thing, boosting demand, but also not wanting to purchase that product, diminishing demand.

Yes, the consumer is the king in India. As we all know the Indian market is dynamic and consumer preferences often shape industries and influence business strategies significantly. In modern marketing, the prime motive of a seller is to know about the needs of the consumer and fulfill those and earn a profit. Thus, we can say that the consumer is the king of the Indian Market.

Yes, according to me, the customer is the only who ruled over all market he/she is the real king because every producer or seller try to fulfil the demands of customer and also if we think we only satisfy the demand of whom the person who ruled over the market so same concept related to marketing.

Then, the customer is the other one who ruled over the market '.

No, the customer is not the king of the market because they are trapped by market tactics to purchase the items. We can take the example of the movie Rocket Singh, that a computer total manufacture cost is Rs. 22000, But they sell to RS 40000.

So they loot the only customer. By showing ads that we give 50%discount on that product is just their market tactics to trap customers. The big company makes huge profit by market tactics and fool the customer.

Hello friends.

In my opinion, the customer is the king because every product or service is innovated is completely based on customer needs. If a customer is not satisfied then the product or service will be shut down or out of the market. Even we do market research to know the customer requirement and promotional activities are also for grabbing the customer's attention. For eg the success of Patanjali as it grabbed the customers attention by knowing their requirement i.e., organic products and lower prices compared to other brands.

Consumer is King, but not the only King. Once there was time in ancient India when relationship between consumer and merchant or manufacturer was that of family member. Since time, trade, techniques and sociological concept and tradition changed, now manufacturer mainly looks for profit. They get survey made by professional consultants to know the mood, purchasing pattern and psychology of consumers' mind. Then go for manufacturing the goods. Till this consumer is King. But real need of consumer is totally ignored. The age of mass scale production has changed the position of Consumer from that of King to Slave. Now, goods are manufactured in bulk and in advance and then strategies are made out how to sale it ? What misleading advertisement should be prepared and who can be pout as a role model to project such advertisement. I see that in market, consumer is ignored and cheated by manufacturer in terms of quality, price and endurance of goods. Why this is ?Because on one hand there is professional association, federation or confederation of traders, merchant and on other, consumer is alone, unorganized and even government listen less from consumer and more from such organised federation of traders/manufacturers such as ASCHOM, FICCI, Chamber of Commerce etc.

Conclusion : Consumer was King pin in Economy but Today he is not only King pin in Economy.

Yes, customer is the king not only in India but across the whole world. A customer is the one who hold the hand of a businessman towards the sky limit without a customer niether company can survive nor the economy. But there are also other facts that my fellow members also discussed about the different products that are being produced by the company not only on the basis of Customer but also on the basis of other factors like in an oil and natural gas companies they not only focus on the customer but also on the factors of environment.

Most of the products are manufactured by keeping in mind the requirements of people living in India i.e. the demand of consumers. So yes we can say that comsumers are the real king in India.

In my opinion, yes customer is the real king of the market. Because for any startup one should focus on the customer need because it is a customer who will convert the business into a brand. If any businessman just focus on the money rather than the quality of products, his business will definately face downfall. We can't take the customer as a granted, because they are the one who raises the business by using their goods. There are a lot of examples like Amazon Flipkart Maruti Suzuki they all focus on the customer needs and they get success. There are some sectors like the food sector in which businessman can make fool of the customer because in this industry customer just focus on the taste rather than its quality.

Conclusion: Customer is the one who can rise the business as well as fall the business, So the customers are the real king of the market.
