Organization Structure In MGSSK pvt ltd Sugar Industry
REVA UNIVERSITY MBA 2015-16 Page 2
CHAPTER 1:INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction
Any operating organization should have its own structure in order to operate
efficiently. For an organization, the organizational structure is a hierarchy of people and
its functions. The organizational structure of an organization tells you the character of an
organization and the values it believes in. Therefore, when you do business with an
organization or getting into a new job in an organization, it is always a great idea to get to
know and understand their organizational structure.
Depending on the organizational values and the nature of the business,
organizations tend to adopt one of the following structures for management purposes.
Although the organization follows a particular structure, there can be departments and
teams following some other organizational structure in exceptional cases. Sometimes,
some organizations may follow a combination of the following organizational structures
as well.
1.2 History of Sugar Industry
Sugar industry is one of the most important agro-based industries in India and is
highly responsible for creating significant impact on rural economy in particular and
country’s economy in general. Sugar industry ranks second amongst major agro-based
industries in India. As per the Government of India’s recent liberalised policy announced
on 12th December, 1986 for licensing of additional capacity for sugar industries during
7th five-year plan, there will be only one sugar mill in a circular area of 40 sq km. Also
the new sugar mill is allowed with an installation capacity of 2500 TCD ( Tonne Sugar
Cane crushed per day) as against the earlier capacity norms of 1250 TCD. Similarly, the
existing sugar mills with sugar cane capacity of about 3500 TCD can crush sugar cane to
the tune of 5000 TCD with a condition imposed that additional requirement of sugar cane
be acquired through increased productivity and not by expansion of area for growing
sugar cane.
Cane sugar is the name given to sucrose, a disaccharide produced from the
sugarcane plant and from the sugar beet. The refined sugars from the two sources are
practically indistinguishable and command the same price in competitive markets.
However, since they come from different plants, the trace constituents are different and

can be used to distinguish the two sugars. One effect of the difference is the odor in the
package head space, from which experienced sugar workers can identify the source.
In the production scheme for cane sugar, the cane cannot be stored for more than a
few hours after it is cut because microbiological action immediately begins to degrade the
sucrose. This means that the sugar mills must be located in the cane fields. The raw sugar
produced in the mills is item of international commerce. Able to be stored for years, it is
handled as raw material – shipped at the lowest rates directly in the holds of ships or in
dump trucks or railroad cars and pushed around by bulldozers. Because it is not intended
to be eaten directly, it is not handled as food.
The raw sugar is shipped to the sugar refineries, which are located in population
centers. There it is refined to a food product, packaged, and shipped a short distance to
the market. In a few places, there is a refinery near or even within a raw-sugar mill.
However, the sugar still goes through raw stage. The principle by-product of cane sugar
production is molasses. About 10 – 15% of the sugar in the cane ends up in molasses.
Molasses is produced both in the raw-sugar manufacture and also in refining. The
blackstrap or final molasses is about 35 – 40% sucrose and slightly more than 50% total
sugars. In the United States, blackstrap is used almost entirely for cattle feed. In some
areas, it is fermented and distilled to rum or industrial alcohol. The molasses used for
human consumption is of a much higher grade, and contains much more sucrose.

1.3 Industry Analysis
In India, sugar is an essential item of mass consumption and the
cheapest source of energy, supplying around 10 percent of the daily calorie intake. India i
s the second largest producer of sugar (16.3 million ton production in 2008‐09).It howeve
r, ranks 15th in export rankings (.23 million ton exports in 2008‐0) as India is the largest c
onsumer of sugar in the world. Raw as well as refined
sugarprices plunged this year on expectation that output in Brazil and India, the second‐bi
ggest producer, will increase. Raw sugar prices declined by 45 percent since the start of th
e year 2010 amid hopes that global output will rebound.
Four factors determine sugar production in India:
 Area under sugarcane production (Max. acreage of 4.43 million hectare)
 Sugarcane yield per hectare (Max. yield of 71.3 tonnes per hectare)
 The production of sugarcane that is crushed by sugar factories in relation to the tot
al sugarcane produced (Max drawl percentage = 69%)
 Recovery of sugar (Max recovery = 10.48%)
Ethanol is being promoted as an alternative to oil. It is commercially viable, clean
er fuel but its efficiency is questionable. Ethanol promotion is primarily driven by
Brazil which happens to be the largest consumer of ethanol. Incidentally, Brazil pr
oduces ethanol directly from the sugarcane unlike
many other countries which produce ethanol from molasses (a by‐product after ext
raction of sugar from sugarcane). Almost 60% of Brazilian cane crop is diverted t
o production of ethanol. Changes to emission norms under
Kyoto protocol, increased fiscal incentives from several governments, US bill man
dating ethanol use in gasoline, high oil prices are several other factors influencing
ethanol production and diverting cane from sugar to ethanol production. In Octobe
r 2007, Government of India (GOI) has mandated 5% ethanol blending. India requ
ires an estimated 550 million litres of ethanol. GOI has also permitted companies t
o produce ethanol directly from sugarcane juice.
This will provide companies flexibility to alter the produt mix between sugar and ethanol
depending on the relative demand and realisation.
The Government of India (GOI) approved the National Policy on Bio‐fuels on December
24, 2009. The bio‐fuel policy encourages use of renewable energy resources as alternate f

uels to supplement transport fuels (gasoline and diesel for vehicle) and proposes target of
20 percent bio‐fuel blending (bio‐diesel and bio‐ethanol)
by 2017. Presently, the government is unable to implement compulsory blending of 5 pe
rcent ethanol in petrol (gasoline) due to the short supply of sugar molasses in 2009/10 and
2008/09 because of overall low sugarcane crop production in India. Consequently, India i
mported about 280 million litres of ethanol in CY 2009 to meet the demand for industrial
and potable liquor production. With a bumper
sugarcane and sugar production outlook for 2010/11, the government is likely to renew its
focus and implement the mandatory 5 percent ethanol blending in petrol. Industry source
s report that the government is likely to take a decision on the purchase price of ethanol fo
r the Ethanol Blending Program (EBP).
Commercial production of biodiesel in India is very small and its utilization is mostly con
fined to the unorganized sector. The government’s ambitious plan of producing sufficient
bio‐diesel by 2011/12 to meet its mandate of 20 percent diesel blending is unrealized due
to a lack of sufficient jatropha seeds to produce bio‐diesel.Advanced bio‐fuels in India are
still at the research stage and it will take time before commercial production becomes eco
nomically viable.

CHAPTER 3:LITERATURE REVIEW
3.1 Introduction to Literature review

A review of the existing studies on sugar industries in general regarding the
available literature on sugar industry in India are to be related to production, procurement,
pricing policies and marketing aspects of sugarcane. Review of literature is concerned to
the study of previous research work in the field of chosen research problem. This is one
of the most important components in the research process, which introduce the researcher
to research gaps as well as to the research process. In order to get familiarity with the
research process and to understand the research gaps in the chosen research problems
about 100 research articles, 12 Ph. D thesis and 5 M. Phil dissertations were reviewed and
the reviewed literature is presented under the following heads, viz., sugar industry in
India and abroad, co-operative sugar sector in India, cost and operational analysis of
sugar factories, financial analysis of sugar factories, human resources in sugar factories
and in sugarcane fields, sugarcane and sugarcane cultivation.
The Sugar Enquiry Commission: Appointed by Government of India it studies the
trends in the sugar production, sugar policy, problems of sugar cane development, pricing
and distribution policy of sugar and sugarcane and licensing policy. However the report
of the sugar enquiry Commission did not touch the cost management factors in sugar
industry in general and specifically co-operative sugar industries
G.S.Kamat:
Reviewed the management aspect of the co-operative enterprises. And studied the
co-operative sugar factories in Maharashtra state in 1965.it covers the problems relating
to finance, raw materials and personnel. The conclusion of the study is that the co-
operative sugar factories could play an important role in rural development if they
managed properly.
V L Dutt:
Conducted a study on problems and prospects of sugar industry and urged state
Government to earmark the entire purchase tax for intensive cane development
Sri. L. Kumar:
Studied the cost structure of sugar industry and recommended for the policy of
partial decontrol restoration in 1980.
S. Pruthi:

(1995) studied the history of sugar industry in India. The study focused on history
of sugar, sugar making in ancient and medieval India, during British period and after
independence till 1992. The consolidated chronological write up backed by secondary
data, which was collected from the Government records and books. The study concluded
with remarkable findings that the English trader brought sugarcane at Agra and Luknow
to meet the growing sugar needs of the British Empire; the manufacturing of sugar was
intensified by the East India Company; dominance of small size units in the initial phase
of the growth of the sugar industry and the existence of major regional difference in the
size of sugar mills in India; and after the independence the growth of sugar industry was
adversely affected by a variety of factors such as control, cane price, quota, duty and
sugar politics.
M.L.K. Dagde"
(2001) has proposed a new concept of right sizing of manpower in sugar industry
and advocated that without restructuring, right sizing, down sizing or optimising Indian
sugar industry may be private or co-operative sector would not survive. Right sizing of
manpower does not mean reduction in manpower but does mean right person at right
place at right time; avoiding duplication of work force; and reduction in salary and wage
bills. The study proposed a model based on the manpower requirement stated by the
various authorities/institutions based on the crushing capacity of sugar factories.

CHAPTER 4:RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY :
The present paper is based on secondary data which is collected from selected Co-
operative sugar factories of Bidar district in Karnataka state.
Following reports are collected for study.
1. MIS Reports
2. Daily Manufacturing Reports.
3. Annual Technical Reports.
4. Cane Manufacturing.
5. Audit Reports.
6. Cost and Management accountant Journal.
7. Cost Accounting Standard which are issued by ICWAI
8. Records of Co-operative Sugar Factories
9. Manufacturing account, Cost sheet.
10. Unstructured interviews conducted with special officer, Cane Inspector, Field
Officer, Executives, workers, Farmers and Leader of farmer association.
11. It is an empirical research in which the researcher has analyzed the cost of
production. The percentage method has been used to analyze the cost elements.
The secondary data which was compiled from three selected co-operative sugar
mills for the period 2005-06 to 2014-15 has been used for analysis.
4.1 Statement Of The Problem:
The cooperative sector plays an important role in the Indian sugar industry. Co-
operative sugar factories are the processing unit established by the farmer in the 103 rural
area. The capital is collected from the farmers for their economical and social
development. It is established as per the co-operative norms and rules. These co-operative
sugar factories have created ample opportunities for employment in rural area. Today co-
operative sugar mills are facing many problems like competitive environment, cyclic
nature of the industry, high support price payable to farmers, inadequate working capital,
low yield of sugarcane outdated machinery in old co-operative sugar factory, competition
with Gur and Khandsari industry. Sugar export policy was unstable, more government
regulations, high cost of production etc. because of this problems the working of many

sugar factories is not comfortable. This is therefore, the right time to launch some by-
product industry to make the sugar industry financial viable.
The dynamic leadership given by some progressive co-operative sugar factories in
this direction has encouraged many more co-operative sugar factories to set up such by-
product industries. Because of importance of by-products of the sugar industry the
researcher selected research problem, “An Analytical study of By-products of sugar
industry with reference to Kolhapur Districts”
4.2 Objectives Of The Study:
Researcher has conducted research work on the basis of set objectives, the
specific objectives are as follows:-
1. To know the growth and development of sugarcane By-products industries and
their ancillaries.
2. To examine the financial position of the co-operative sugar factories and its
departments of By-products.
3. To stud the functional areas like production, marketing, finance and Human
Resource of by-products production in the sample units.
4. To know the financial liability of the by-products in sample sugar factories
5. To suggest product mix model to sample sugar factories.
6. To draw conclusion and suggest appropriate suggestion, if necessary.
4.3 Scope of the Study:
To evaluate the cost management practice adopted by the Co-operative sugar
factories of Bidar District in Karanataka, the following factories are taken in to
consideration.
1. Mahatma Gandhi Sahakar Sakkare Karkhane Limited, Donagapur, Bhalki.
(MGSSK) Ltd.
2. Bidar Sahakar SakkareKarkhane Limited Hallikhed (B),Bidar. (BSSK) Ltd.

Ltd.
4. Mahatma Gandhi Sahakar SakkareKarkhane Limited, Donagapur, Bhalki.
(MGSSK) Ltd
4.4 Limitation of the study:

The present study covers the sample sugar factories in Bidar District. The
selected subject has following limitation.
 The study relates the selected five co-operative sugar factories in the Bidar
District only.
 The researcher studied the functional areas like production, financial, marketing
and human resource in relation to the sugar factories and its by-products
developments.
 This study does not necessarily cover all these technical aspect of sugar factories.
 The period of the study is of only seven years i.e. from 2005-06 to 2012-13.
Therefore time factor is the limiting factor.
 The conclusions drawn in this study are based on the data made available by these
sugar factories.
 Use of statistical tools and technique has its own limitation
4.5 Research Design and Sampling:
a) Sampling Design: It consists of selection of the study area and selection of the
sample sugar factories.
 Selection of the study Area:
India has emerged as one of the largest production of sugarcane and sugar in the
world with highest number of sugar factories. In India, Karnataka is one of the major
sugars producing State in the country and in Karnataka; Bidar District in particular,
became a potential sugarcane belt area. Sugarcane occupies an important place in the
economy of the district it is the most important cash crop of the District.
The District as such as in the top on many indicators such as number of sugar
factories, crushing capacity, cane crushed, cane recovery, Sugarcane by-product
industries, etc. Bidar is the home district of the researcher, located in peninsular part of
India of North-Karnataka; it was chosen on convenient bases as the study area for the
purpose of the present investigation.
 Selection of Sample Co-operative Sugar Factories in the Study Area.
The total numbers of sugar factories in Bidar District are 10 Out of 07- sugar
factories in co-operative sector. Researcher is selected 5 (30%) co-operative sugar
factories. It is also considered that geographical location, area, size, age, crushing

capacity, nature of production of by-products etc. The use of convenience sampling
method was taken up for selection of the sugar factories.
Map No.3.1 Map shows location of Karnataka

4.6 Significance ofthe study:
In other countries sugar is a by-product, but in India sugar is the main product
produced by sugar mills. India is producing large quantity of sugar because of our own
needs, but now a day’s only sugar production is not production is not profitable for sugar
mills. Sugar industry needs to increase their capacity in by products like alcohol, ethanol
co-generation etc. This could be possible only through fuller and better utilization of the
by-products and alternative produce, so that the higher value products are manufactured
from them and sugar industry derives maximum benefit from the sugar crop. The ultimate
prosperity of the Indian sugar industry depends upon diversification intonumerous
avenues based on the by-products of the sugar industry. The following are reason for
setting up by-product industries in India.
 To improve the general economy of the sugar industries and to make them
financially viable.
 To improve the economic status of sugarcane growers and workers by way of
paying higher prices for sugarcane crop. • To create more employment
opportunities in the rural areas by setting up industries based on sugarcane by-
products.
 Judiciously utilizing sugarcane crop residues and industrial effluents to produce
value-added products and minimize pollution hazards.
Biomass has always been an important energy source for the country considering
the benefits it offers. It is renewable, widely available, carbon neutral and has the
potential to provide significant employment in the rural areas. Biomass is also capable of
providing firm energy. For efficient utilization of biomass, bagasse based cogeneration in
sugar mills and biomass power generation have been taken up under biomass and
cogeneration program me. Sugar industry has been traditionally practicing cogeneration
by using bagases as a fuel. With the advancement in the technology for generation and
utilization of steam at high temperature and pressure, sugar industry can produce
electricity and steam for their own requirement. Ethanol which is an alternatives fuel for
automobile vehicle is produced from sugarcane molasses. The bio-ethanol blending
program me reduce India’s dependence of fossil fuel import, it also ensures that the
nation moves towards energy efficiency. It also has other very important advantages of
being the best oxidant which helps burn the petrol better when blended with it thereby
reducing environmental pollution that fossil fuel are infamous for.

The Government of India realized the benefits of fuel ethanol use in India with the
fast growing sugar industry. India being the second largest sugarcane producer in the
World, it accepted that there is a huge potential of production and availability of the fuel
ethanol. It was accepted by the Government in 2006, that a mandatory 5% ethanol
blending with petrol (EBP) program me would directly benefit the sugarcane farmers by
assuring the sugar industry a stable and reasonable return for the molasses and then
passing a significant part of the same to the farmers.
4.6 Hypotheses of the study:
1. Co-operative sugar factories are suffering from the losses due to high cost of
production and low productivity in relation to by-product units.
2. Low level of efficiency is found at various By-product departments.
3. The functional areas of management like production, marketing, finance and HR
are weak in the by-products sample units
4. By-Products production mix is not up to the mark in sample units.
4.7 Need for the study
The study is very helpful and gives needed suggestion to improve in the existing
cost management philosophy .There is suitable cost management policies are needed in
co-operative industries. There is a need for effective cost management Concept
development and co-operative sugar industries yet to develop systematic and objective
oriented cost management policies and practices. The present study which attempts to
analyze the cost management policies and practices in co-operative sugar industry of
Bidar district in Karnataka state.
Areas of cost reduction
1.Physical parameters
1. Cane planning
2. Good sugar cane varietal mix
3. High sugar variety and high yield variety
4. Cultivation of sugar cane near factory building avoids transportation cost.
5. Raw material supply time should not cross 24 hours.

2.Crushing
1. Crushing should be arranged in such way that 80% sugar cane crushed in peak
period i.e. (December to March)crushing should be achieved at least its installed
capacity.
3.Down time.
Down time stoppage will occur in following reason
1) Want cane
2) Engineering problems.
3) General periodical cleaning
4) Other reasons.
The deduction of down time will enhance the productivity generally permitted
down time in Karnataka is 8%
4. Total losses the permitted norm for the total loss of sugar is 1.80%
1) Loss in Bagasse : 0.60
2) Loss in Pressumd : 0.05
3) Loss in Molasses: 1.10
4) Unknown Loss: 0.05
5) Total: 1.80 .
5. Cane cost
Increasing in the recovery % by reducing the total loss will ensure reduction of
unit cost of production. Here the Purchase tax and Cane Cess will not be avoidable. But
we can control the transport charges which could be reduced by the area of production
ofsugarcane near to factory.
6. Conversion cost.
Fuel, oil, lubricants and power can be reduced by preventive majors, basically
now days all sugar mills produce power for their consumption. Still need to use most
appropriate use of power it should be put off when machine is not in use all the
department of the factory should use LED lighting in factory premises which is required
that much power should be consumed and reaming power should be sold.

7. Repairs and maintenance:
1. Quality spare parts should be installed
2. Necessary technical up gradation of machinery should be done in time.
3. Opinion of Export should be taken about machinery life, and quality of work.
8. Administration Cost reduction.
1. Overtime should be avoided to possible extent
2. Salary and wages should be paid on scientific basis neither more nor less.
3. Free medical facilities should be provided.
4. Rent should be fixed according to Rent Control Act wherever possible.
5. Staff is the back bone of any organization enough care should be taken providing
all amenities to staff.
6. Avoid unnecessary expenses each and every paisa outgoing or incoming should be
accounted and most of the payment should be made account pay crossed cheque
only

CHAPTER 5: DATA ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION
5.Analysis

In India, sugar is an essential item of mass consumption and the cheapest
source of energy, supplying around 10 percent of the daily calorie intake. India is the seco
nd largest producer of sugar (16.3 million ton production in 2008‐09).It, however, ranks 1
5th in export rankings (.23 million ton exports in 2008‐09) as India is the largest consume
r of sugar in the world. Raw as well as refined sugar prices plunged this year on expectati
on thatoutput in Brazil and India, the second‐biggest producer, will increase. Raw sugar p
rices declined by 45 percent since the start of the year 2010 amid hopes that global output
will rebound.
Four factors determine sugar production in India:
 Area under sugarcane production (Max. acreage of 4.43 million hectare)
 Sugarcane yield per hectare (Max. yield of 71.3 tonnes per hectare)
 The production of sugarcane that is crushed by sugar factories in relation to the tot
al sugarcane produced (Max drawl percentage = 69%)
 Recovery of sugar (Max recovery = 10.48%)
Ethanol is being promoted as an alternative to oil. It is commercially viable, cleaner fu
el but its efficiency is questionable. Ethanol promotion is primarily driven by Brazil whic
h happens to be the largest consumer of ethanol. Incidentally, Brazil produces ethanol dir
ectly from the sugarcane unlike many other countries which produce ethanol from molass
es (a by‐product after extraction of sugar from sugarcane). Almost 60% of Brazilian cane
crop is diverted to production of ethanol. Changes to emission norms under Kyoto protoc
ol,increased fiscal incentives from several governments, US bill mandating ethanol use in
gasoline, high oil prices are several other factors influencing ethanol production and diver
ting cane from sugar to ethanol production. In October 2007, Government of India (GOI)
has mandated 5% ethanol blending. India requires an estimated 550 million litres of ethan
ol.GOI has also permitted companies to produce ethanol directly from sugarcane juice. Th
iswill provide companies flexibility to alter the product mix between sugar and ethanol de
pending on the relative demand and realisation.
The Government of India (GOI) approved the National Policy on Bio‐fuels on De
cember 24, 2009. The bio‐fuel policy encourages use of renewable energy resources as alt
ernate fuels to supplement transport fuels (gasoline and diesel for vehicles) and
proposes a target of 20 percent bio‐fuel blending (bio‐diesel and bio‐ethanol)by 2017.

Presently, the government is unable to implement compulsory blending of 5 perce
nt ethanol in petrol (gasoline) due to the short supply of sugar molasses in 2009/10 and20
08/09because of overall low sugarcane crop production in India. Consequently, India imp
orted about 280 million litres of ethanol in CY 2009 to meet the demand for industrial and
potable liquor production. With a bumper sugarcane and sugar production outlook for201
0/11, the government is likely to renew its focus and implement the mandatory 5 percent
ethanol blending in petrol. Industry sources report that the government is likely to takeade
cision on the purchase price of ethanol for the Ethanol Blending Program (EBP).
Commercial production of biodiesel in India is very small and its utilization is mo
stly confined to the unorganized sector. The government’s ambitious plan of producing su
fficient bio‐diesel by 2011/12 to meet its mandate of 20 percent diesel blending is unreali
zed due to a lack of sufficient jatropha seeds to produce bio‐diesel. Advanced bio‐fuels in
India are still at the research stage and it will take time before commercial production bec
omes economically viable.
5.1 Primary Data :
The primary data the researcher has been visited to all sample sugar factories as
well as through discussion and observations. The researcher interview of the officials and
management, by-product department heads, were organized discussion and observations
Primary data has also been obtained through other methods like observation and
field survey. The data about production performance, financial, marketing, and H.R. etc.
it has been related with sample sugar factories and its by-products departments.
5.2 Secondary Data:

The researcher has collected secondary data from Annual reports, books and
published literature of the sample sugar factories. For theoretical background
researcher has made use of textbooks related of the sugar industry and by-products
industries.
Other necessary data is collected from:-
 Various Annual reports from the related sugar industry.
 Reports of Mahatma Gandhi Sahakar Sakkare Karkhane Kanaji. North-
Karnataka.
 Reports of ethanol producers Association.
 Report of co-cogeneration producers.
 Books and Magazines etc.
 Published and unpublished research work.
 The Internet.
Karnataka has produced the highest ever sugar production in its history and as on 15th
April, 2014, it has produced 40.5 lakh tons of sugar. In the previous season, Karnataka
had produced 33.5 lakh tons, but it has closed its crushing operation by now. As
compared to that, 19 sugar mills continue to crush sugarcane this year.

Sweetness of sugar is not to the former or growers of sugar cane in Karnataka
expected rate at which they are producing cost are not paid by the factories in time .this
study is concern here how to minimize sugar manufacturing cost from factory point of
view .The success of any industry or sugar manufacturing organization depend on to
enhance the selling price do not decrease cost per unit manufacturing cost .but long run
increasing in selling price not hold good in competitive environment so we need to
survival in cut thought competition just control the cost than next step is reduce per unit
cost without reducing quality.
Here quality should be maintained but unit or single output cost per unit (marginal
cost per unit) should be reduced possible extent using best and latest cost management
techniques applied in production process.

CHAPTER 6: FINDINGS
6.1Findings:

Bio‐fuel Policy:
India’s bio‐fuel policy is comprehensive and gives a broad outline to all the major
areas that need attention. These guidelines have to be translated into a bio‐fuel program a
nd a series of projects to reap the potential benefits. Given the vast differences in the econ
omic performances and cross‐sectoral implications of ethanol and biodiesel, the bio‐fuel p
olicy can serve better if these two sectors are dealt with separately.
Potential for Producing Bio‐fuels:
Simple natural resource accounting shows that 20% blending of ethanol with petro
l can be achieved by 2017, only if sugar cane juice is converted to ethanol to supplement
molasses ethanol. Sweet sorghum (SS) and tropical sugar beets (TSB) are still at the initia
l stage of development and face major technological and financial constraints. About 32
million hectares of wasteland are required for biodiesel production together with yield im
provements to meet a 20% blending target with petroleum diesel. However, it is unlikely
that India can achieve the 20% blending target by 2017 given the current infant stage of
the biodiesel industry in the country.
Food Security: At the current level of productivity, a 20% blending of sugar cane based
ethanol cannot be achieved without affecting the food sector. SS and TSB will also comp
ete with the food sector for land and water. However, molasses based ethanol blending do
es not have any impact on the food sector. If confined to wastelands and using only limite
d irrigation during the establishment phase of the crops, biodiesel production will not hav
e any adverse impact on the food sector.
Technological Constraints:
Thesugarcane sector is well organized and there are no major technological or oth
er constraints, which prevent meeting the blending targets. The SS and TSB supply chains
are yet to be fully developed and they face a major bottleneck at the juice extraction seg
ment of the supply chain making juice extracting units financially unattractive. In contrast
to sugarcane, the biodiesel supply chain is in its infancy and understanding the agronomy
development of nurseries and plantations with high yielding varieties are major constrain
Impact on Water:

Sugarcane is a water intensive crop but if confined to existing sugarcane lands or
to molasses based ethanol, ethanol production will not add to the irrigation water demand.
Biodiesel crops most likely will not add to the water problems if confined to limited irriga
tion in the early tage of the crop establishment.
Environmental Impacts:
Both ethanol and biodiesel crops have limited negative environmental impacts
which can be easily mitigated using available technologies and regulatory measures.Copa
red to ethanol, biodiesel crops have a number of positive environmental effects and their
carbon benefit potential is also large. There are no foreseeable negative social impacts of
biodiesel.
Financial Feasibility ‐ Ethanol: Ethanol production is not profitable under the administr
atively determined price of Rs21.5/liter.The recent price revision may provide adequate
profits to producers.
Financial Feasibility ‐ Biodiesel: Biodiesel production is also not financially feasible un
der the current pricing mechanism. The current administratively determined price of Rs26
.5/liter needs to be revised to provide financial incentives along the supply chain.
Economic Feasibility Ethanol:
Molasses based ethanol is economically feasible at the current price of oil and inc
reases of oil prices make molasses based ethanol economically more attractive. The diver
sion of ethanol from current uses in industry and as potable alcohol is not economically vi
able. The cost of sugarcane juice based ethanol exceeds the social benefits, hence, sugar c
ane juice ethanol is not economically justifiable. Higher oil prices do not make sugarcane
juice based ethanol economically attractive. Therefore, sugarcane based ethanol will not b
e economically viable even in the future. Alternative feed stocks such as TSB and SS are
not economically feasible at current oil prices.Thereforethe ethanol sector should revise it
s national targets to an economically beneficial target ‐ up to 5% blending only using mol
asses ethanol.
Economic Feasibility Biodiesel:

Both jatropha and pongamia provide acceptable economic returns at current oil pri
ces, and an increase in the price of diesel makes biodiesel economically more attractive. E
mployment generation and CDM benefits are also significant in the case of biodiesel.
Therefore, the expansion of biodiesel production is socially desirable and the resul
ts of this report support an aggressive program for biodiesel in India.
Economy Wide Impact of Biodiesel:
The Indian general equilibrium model, with only biodiesel interventions, shows th
at biodiesel could provide India with an opportunity to enhance economic growth and the
well‐being of rural populations. The national bio‐fuel program has the potential to create
a significant number of jobs with substantial real wage increases; hence, it is a potential a
venue for poverty reduction within an inclusive growth policy framework. The negative
effect of the program, i.e. higher fiscal deficits, seems not to dampen the growth effect. I
contrast, the 20% ethanol blending does not add much value to the economy.

CHAPTER 7: RECOMMENDATIONS AND CONCLUSION

7.1 Recommendations
1. Supply of clean and good quality sugar cane should be taken in put.
2. Cost management should be culture need to concentrate on grass root level
approach not top levelapproach.
3. Need tool for Comprehensive & Sustained Cost Management Approach.
4. TQM (Total Quality Management) should be adopted for reducing cost of
manufacturing.
5. Benchmarking should be followed in process costing inter factory.
6. Avoid too distance cane from factory for reducing transport cost and cane cost all
three factories cane cost to total cost is within set limit only but comparatively
BSSK Ltd cane cost 69% it is high reason for same it is the old factory in the
district and area of operation is whole district transport cost will be more
7. Conversion cost is in set limit but can be minimized using new machinery.
8. NSSK Ltd paid more interest i.e. 15% they can avoid interest minimizing the
private debt.
9. Salary and wages in case of BSSK Ltd is more i.e. 9% of total cost comparatively
try to reduce it for possible extent avoid overtime and bonus to employee.
10. Depreciation play vital role cost of production in case of MGSSK Ltd it is 12%
more amt they should decrease to 10% and BSSK Ltd and NSSK Ltd actual
depreciation in total cost is 1% and 4% respectively at least they should maintain
10%.
11. Selling and administration expenses of MGSSK Ltd and NSSK Ltd is 4% and % 5
respectively it should be decrease to possible extent because it is more compared
to BSSK Ltd.(BSSK Ltd selling and administrative cost to total cost is i.e. 1%).
12. Reduction in down time and total loss it should not cross 1.80% as industry norms
fixed.
13. Administrative cost should be minimized possible extent
14. Increase the recovery of sugar from sugar cane using new machinery or new
technology

15. Batter utilization of By Product and Joint Product more power should be
generated and it should be sold
16. Install ABC inventory technique in material management department
Conclusion
Performance of Co-operative sugar mills is very poor when compared to
international sugar industry this is basically sugar mills do not have effective cost control
techniques it is better to adopt ABC (Activity Based Costing) techniques to apportion of
overhead and also need to install advance machinery to get high quality sugar in less time
as well as less cost most of the sugar factories are not proper utilizing the By product
and joint product like ethanol, molasses, and bagasse’s ethanol can be used with petrol so
sugar factories of Karnataka should adopt a long run plan to effective cost management
