Type of sampling used during research:
1. Online sampling: An online survey was conducted in India to

collect primary data. A web-based survey was suitable for this
study because it could reach a wide audience anytime and
anywhere. It was 'the most efficient method of data collection
considering their time and constraints', because it had minimal
financial impact and could collect store responses more
accurately. Also, participants did not reveal their identity while
completing the questionnaires. The anonymity of respondents
improves the reliability of data collected.
2. Snowball Sampling: Snowball sampling is non-probability
sampling technique that is used by researchers to identify
potential subjects in studies where subjects are hard to locate.
Researchers use this sampling method if the sample for the study
is very rare or is limited to a very small subgroup of the
population. This type of sampling technique works like chain
referral. After observing the initial subject, the researcher asks for
assistance from the subject to help identify the people with a
same trait of interest.
3. Use of Google forms was done in order to collect the primary

data through structured questionnaire.
Data collected by researcher:
1. Primary Source: Primary Information was collected through
questionnaire survey of 1500 respondents selected through
snowball sampling method from Pune city.
2. Secondary Source: Information was collected through articles in
newspapers, journals, analysis in TV business channels like
CNBC and NDTV profit and through internet.
3. Use of SPSS software: Data Analysis has been done with the
help of statistical tools such as regression test and chi square test.
Hypothesis 1: Customers are loyal to Patanjali brand.
H0: Customers are not loyal to Patanjali brand.
H1: Customers are loyal to Patanjali brand.

purchased the Patanjali products, 1091 are willing to buy again.
Hence Loyalty percentage = 1091/1165 = 93.64%

From the table no. 2, Pearson Chi-Square statistic, X2 = 1150.566, and p < 0.00;
i.e., a very small probability of the observed data under the null hypothesis of no
relationship. The null hypothesis is rejected, since p < 0.05 (in fact p < 0.001).

72.16.
From the table no. 5, Pearson Chi-Square statistic, X2 = 1500.00, and p <
0.00; ie, a very small probability of the observed data under the null
