Deogracias, Scepter Jr. O. March 14, 2014 Background of the Case With a rich history, in 1994, Starbucks Coffee Company was formed and Howard Schultz became its President. Since then the company was the number one coffee retailer and continuously expands its business globally. It pursued international expansion with three objectives in mind: to prevent competitors from getting a head start, to build upon the growing desire for Western brands, and to take advantage of higher coffee consumption rates in different countries. And so seeing that the Asian market is in its developmental stage, it took this opportunity to be a leader in a new industry and so it concentrated its expansion efforts mainly in Asia starting with Japan and China. In 2002, Starbucks announced for the first time that it was planning to enter India. Later it postponed its entry as it had entered China recently and was facing problems in Japan. In 2003, there was news again that Starbucks was reviving its plans to enter India.

Out of the 71 million TV households in 1999, 32 million had access to Cable TV. However, along with the soaring viewership, complaints on quality also increased. Digitalisation of Cable TV took a new form when Direct-To-Home (DTH) was launched in India in 2003. The DTH service is an encrypted transmission.

Since it makes use of wireless technology, programmes are sent to the subscriber’s television direct from the satellite. This eliminates the need for cables and cable infrastructure. DTH service is particularly effective in remote areas, where cables and even normal television services are poor or nonexistent. These services provide the finest picture and sound quality. Like the quality of any modern movie theatre, DTH also provides the best quality surround sound. Although DTH services were proposed in India way back in 1996, it was not permitted until 2003.
