WHAT WENT WRONG?
• Product Quality
– “I have been drinking tea for quite a few years now, and
once I tasted Taj Mahal tea, I decided at once to stick to
this brand due to its aroma, flavor and big granules.
However off late I am continuously finding it degrading its
quality. The granules are so small that a bigger part in
package is dust only”.
• Reduced Quantity
– Consumers feel deceived as Taj Mahal goes on increasing
prices with slowly reducing quantities.

ENHANCED DISTRIBUTION
Taj Mahal Tea Lounge:
The Taj Mahal tea can open dedicated tea
cafes on the lines of various coffee chains like
Barista, Starbucks, CCD. These tea cafes
would be selling different variants of Taj
Mahal tea and offering snacks to munch
along with tea. These cafes would come up in
states of eastern India first preferably in cities
Kolkata and Darjeeling to name a few as here
tea is preferred more than any other
beverages. The cafes would offer the
customers to purchase tea packets and tea
bags as well along with the consumption.
PRICING
• Priced much higher than its main competitors such
as Tata Tea Premium & Tata Tea Gold.
• Lower prices by Tata became one of the reasons for
losing market share of Taj Mahal Tea.
• Customer Perception : A pack sold as 250 gm pack
actually weighing 245 gm lead to dissatisfaction
among the customers.
OTHER PROMOTIONAL STRATEGIES
Office Contracts:
– Contracting with offices to have
Taj Mahal tea vending machines at
corporate offices.
• Conducted by tea expert Yangdup Lama.
• An ecstatic journey in knowing more about Tea.
• Endorsed by Saif Ali Khan.
