Objectives:

1. How the market will evolve over the next 5 years, keeping the e-commerce and

technology enablement trends in mind


2. Predict how they will evolve, and thereby re-imagine Mahindras strategy to build a
Sales-Services-Spares used-car ecosystem bridging the wholesale and retail parts of
the business, leveraging physical and online infrastructures.
3. Provide an overall 5-year strategic view for the sector, through the lens of market
opportunity, products & services on the back of a technology and data backbone
4. Define the size and segments of opportunity of the After-market sector as a whole, and
the relevant, addressable market for the next 5 years, for multi brand used car sales and
service businesses
5. Through primary and secondary research, identify key industry needs that will be the
critical success factors for the Aftermarket Sector to scale

6. Examine how internet penetration and technology enablement are fundamentally


changing the way consumers will potentially interact with the Aftermarket sector
7. Identify opportunities for Mahindra to leverage this evolving landscape, and use data
both within and outside the enterprise to build a sustainable advantage.
8. Define how the Group should change its mindset when it comes to tapping the online
opportunity, as a hybrid model.
9. Assess the current product & services portfolio for the Aftermarket Sector and make 3-5
specific strategic recommendations to the Sector that should be prioritized in the short
term to build a long term competitive advantage.
10. Define the hybrid plan - between the brick&mortar and the online markets and their
evolutions, and recommend how Mahindra should go-to-market in the context of
metropolitan vs. rural, organized vs. unorganized, and so on, in a continuously evolving
market
11. Mahindra Aftermarket has 2 companies - MFCWL and MFCS, and has been aspiring to
build synergy between selling a used car and then servicing it. For example, a new car
customer usually services his or her car from the same place in which it is bought. Can
the same consumer behaviour be replicated by Mahindra Aftermarket in the Used Car
space, thereby generating a synergistic 3S model
