High competition: There are several strong players in telecommunication sector which

biggest players and increasing competition is one of the main threat for this company as it can
decrease its sales. Penetration of competing players are increasing by which company requires to
decrease its prices (SWOT Analysis of Vodafone, 2018).
Low profit margin: It is stated that differentiation strategy of this company helped it to
the great extent initially. But from last 3-4 years competition is rapidly increasing because of
changing needs and demands of society. It is directly affecting its earned margin against the
generated revenues which is dropping for all telecom brand.
Increasing number of mobile portability: People in this modern era are using internet
to the great extent and for being in the competition, several telecom companies are making an
effective use of schemes and try to attract customers towards their products as well as influence
