1.1- CONSUMER BUYING BEHAVIOUR-
Consumer buying behavior refers to the selection, purchase and consumption of goods and
services for the satisfaction of their wants. There are different processes involved in the
consumer behavior. Many factors, specificities and characteristics influence the individual in
what he is and the consumer in his decision making process, shopping habits, purchasing
behavior, the brands he buys or the retailers he goes. A purchase decision is the result of each
and every one of these factors. Initially the consumer tries to find what commodities he would
like to consume, then he selects only those commodities that promise greater utility. After
selecting the commodities, the consumer makes an estimate of the available money which he can
spend. Lastly, the consumer analyzes the prevailing prices of commodities and takes the decision
about the commodities he should consume. Meanwhile, there are various other factors
influencing the purchases of consumer such as social, cultural, economic, personal and
psychological.

CHAPTER- 2
REVIEW OF LITERATURE

18
2.1- A REVIEW OF LITERATURE IS…..
A literature review is a text of a scholarly paper, which includes the current
knowledge including substantive findings, as well as theoretical and methodological
contributions to a particular topic. Literature reviews are secondary sources, and do not report
new or original experimental work.
The purposes of the review are:
 to define and limit the problem you are working on
 to place your study in an historical perspective
 to avoid unnecessary duplication
 to evaluate promising research methods
 to relate your findings to previous knowledge and suggest further research
A good literature review, therefore, is critical of what has been written, identifies areas of
controversy, raises questions and identifies areas which need further research.

2.2- REVIEWS-
1. R. Patel Niraj (2009)–the object of the study was to understand “how personal factors of
consumer influence buying behavior with reference to Air Conditioner in Surat city.” The
findings of the study was that majority of the customers came to know about the brand

Challenges in Air-conditioning Industry in India”. The objective of the study was to
know the marketing position of the Air conditioning Company in India and to analyses
the factors influencing the purchase of Air conditioners in India. The data were collected
from various Air conditioning companies in India. The SWOTanalysis was used for
statistical analysis. It was concluded that Air conditioningindustry has a huge growth
potential taking cognizance of higher push oninfrastructure development in India. There
are many players in the market to fulfill thedemand but the required techno-managerial
talent pool has become a scarecommodity. Also, the research focus of this industry is
lesser as compared to other industry.
3. Rajarajan & Priyanga (2013) have studied the consumer behavior towards selected
household appliances such as refrigerator, induction cooker, mixer grinder, and air
cooler. The relationship between consumer behavior and home appliance products can
thus be seen as an individual‟s purchases and use of products and services where these
choices constitute part of consumer‟s life style expression and its reflection
