This book is designed to serve as a text book for management students who want to learn research in Indian context. The book not only deals extensively with theories and text on Research Methodology but also with many case studies and working examples. We have also integrated the SPSS software into the text, which can help students have a brief idea about SPSS and its working.

So, is an attempt to clarify the concept with theoretical as well as practical and day to day working information about research.
