English term

loss leader

GBK English to Urdu Marketing Marketing
Definition from TapRun.com:
A good sold at a price below the current market cost. This pricing is often used to lure shoppers into a store so that they are more likely to buy the vendor's other products.
Example sentences:
Some retailers place loss leaders at the back of their stores so consumers will have to walk by other, more expensive products to get to them. (Investopedia)
Though loss leader pricing is a good strategy towards building traffic to a store you would need to ensure you are actually generating an incremental profit, rather than a substantial loss. (Small Business Trends)
Gaming consoles are strategically priced as loss leaders to encourage the purchase of video games, a complementary good to the console. When customers purchase the higher margin games that frequently follow the console, a gaming company can start to recoup some of the losses they bore initially. (smile.io)

کم از اصل لاگت مال

Although literal translation (laughable) variants are reproduced below (with references), their use along with transliteration is hardly advisable:
1. Transliteration: لاس لیڈر
2. نقصان رہنما https://meaningin.com/english-to-urdu/loss-leader-meaning-in...
3. نقصان کا رہنما http://english2hindidictionary.com/ur/loss leader-meaning-in...

However, few variants might be possible:-
1. مال فروختنی بہ نقصان
2. برامید فائدہ قربانی مال
کوئی تجارتی چیز عموما کسی پرچون کی دکان میں جس کی قیمت اُس کی لاگت سے کم رکھی گئی ہو تاکہ دکان کے کاروبار میں اضافہ ہو
Example sentences:
Unfortunately introduced term is not in use currently as a complete term. Source used to provide definition also introduces translation as a sentence and not as a usable term. However, an example sentence without any reference source is given below: کم از لاگت مال کو گاہکوں کو ترغیب دینے کے لیے اپنی اصلی لاگت سے کم پر بیچا جاتا ہے، اس امید پر کہ اس خریداری کے بعد متوقع خریداریاں نقصان کا ازالہ کر دیں گی۔ (Personal Experience)
