Q.5 Case Study
Mr. and Mrs. Basu went to Woodlands Apparel to buy a pullover. Mr. Basu
did not read the price tag on the piece selected by him. At the counter, while
making the payment he asked for the price. Rs. 950 was the answer.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Basu, who was still shopping came back and joined her
husband. She was glad that he had selected a nice black pullover for himself.
She pointed out that there was 25% discount on that item. The counter
person nodded in agreement.
Mr. Basu was thrilled to hear that. ?It means the price of this pullover is
just Rs. 712.
That?s fantastic ?, said Mr. Basu.
He decided to buy one more pullover in green colour.
In no time, he returned with the second pullover and asked them to be
packed. When he received the cash memo for payment, he was astonished to
find that he had to pay Rs. 1900 and not just Rs. 1424.
Mr. Basu could hardly reconcile himself to the fact that the counter person
had quoted the discounted price which was Rs. 950. The original price
printed on the price tag was Rs. 1266.
Case Questions:
1.)Identify the three sources of Mr. Basu?s information.
2.)What should Mr. Basu have done to avoid misunderstanding?

Q.5 Case Study
The management of a textile mill in Ahmedabad was surprised that
though it insisted on a high level of education among its supervisors
and junior officers (many of them were ?foreign returned?) production
was falling and there were many labour problems, while a rival mill
which had employed local men as its supervisors and officers was
doing very well. An expert in management was consulted and he
reported that the chef cause of poor production and labour problems
was that the Gujarati speaking workers were in awe of the English
speaking officers and were very reluctant to approach them with their
problems or difficulties. Also instructions given in English and broken
Gujarati were not understood and there was almost a complete absence
of ?feedback?
Questions :
1) According to you which type of the communication will be
efficient in this case ?
2) What you feel, how could this Gujarati labours can be
communicated so as to remove the gaps ?
3) Where English and where Gujarati language can be used in the
best way for the internal communication ?
4) What can be other ways to resolve the problems ?
