Abstract: Social media marketing (SMM) has brought significant change in the marketing of the product and strengthens the marketing communication process. The present investigation is taken up to study the impact of SMM on consumer value consciousness (CVC) and purchase of durable products (PDP) and mediating role of CVC in the relationship of social media marketing and the PDPs. The empirical research was carried out with a structured questionnaire of 617 samples collected and analysed with the help of structure equation modelling and mediation model is tested. The results show that SMM has a significant association with PDPs and CVC and CVC mediate the relationship between SMM and PDPs.
