INTRODUCTION OF INDIAN FRTILIZER INDUSTRY


The Indian fertilizer industry has been meeting a substantial portion of the growing demand of fertilizer now. As on today the demand-supply gap in the fertilizer industry is very marginal.

The industry had a very humble beginning in 1906, when the first manufacturing unit of Single Super Phosphate (SSP) was set up in Ranipet near Chennai with an annual production capacity of 6000 M.T. The Fertilizer and Chemicals Travancore ltd. (FACT) at Cochin in Kerala and the Fertilizer Corporation of India Ltd, Sindhri in Jharkhand were the first large sized fertilizer plant set up in forties and fifties with a view to establish a base for industrialization and achieving self-sufficiency in food grains. The seventies and eighties witnessed a significant addition to the fertilizer industry.

Presently there are 66 large sized fertilizer plants in the country manufacturing a wide range of nitrogenous, phosphatic and other complex fertilizer. Besides there are about 80 medium and small-scale single super phosphate plants.

As of now the country is almost self-sufficient in case of nitrogen but in case of phosphates the scarcity of domestic raw material constraints the attainment of selfsufficiency in the country.

www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

Indigenous rock phosphates supplies meet only a small percentage (5%-10%) of total requirement of P2O5. also there are no known commercially exploitable reserves of potash in the country and hence the entire requirement are met through imports.

INTRODUCTION OF IFFCO: Indian Farmers' Success Story

During mid- sixties the Co-operative sector in India was responsible for distribution of 70 percent of fertilizers consumed in the country. This Sector had adequate infrastructure to distribute fertilizers but had no production facilities of its own and hence dependent on public/private Sectors for supplies. To overcome this lacuna and to bridge the demand supply gap in the country, a new cooperative society was conceived to specifically cater to the requirements of farmers. It was a unique venture in which the farmers of the country through their own Co-operative Societies created this new institution to safeguard their interests. The number of co-operative societies associated with IFFCO has risen from 57 in 1967 to 38,155 at present.

Indian Farmers Fertilizer Co-operative Limited (IFFCO) was registered on November 3, 1967 as a Multi-unit Co-operative Society. On the enactment of the Multistate Co-operative Societies act 1984 & 2002, the Society is deemed to be registered as a Multistate Co-operative Society. The Society is primarily engaged in production and distribution of fertilizers. The bylaws of the Society provide a broad frame work for the activities of Indian Farmers Fertilizer Cooperative Limited as a Co-operative Society.

IFFCO commissioned an ammonia - urea complex at Kalol and the NPK/DAP plant at Kandla both in the state of Gujarat in 1975. Ammonia - urea complex was set up at Phulpur in the state of Uttar Pradesh in 1981. The ammonia - urea unit at Aonla was commissioned in 1988.

11

www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

In 1993, IFFCO had drawn up a major expansion programme of all the four plants under overall aegis of IFFCO VISION 2000 . The expansion projects at Aonla, Kalol, Phulpur and Kandla have been completed on schedule. Thus all the projects conceived as part of Vision 2000 have been realized without time or cost overruns. All the production units of IFFCO have established a reputation for excellence and quality. A new growth path has been chalked out to realize newer dreams and greater heights through Vision 2010 which is presently under implementation. As part of the new vision, IFFCO has acquired fertilizer unit at Paradeep in Orissa in September 2005. As a result of these expansion projects and acquisition, IFFCO's annual capacity has been increased to 3.69 million tonnes of Urea and NPK/DAP equivalent to 1.71 million tonnes of P2O5.

IFFCO has made strategic investments in several joint ventures. Godavari Fertilizers and Chemicals Ltd (GFCL) & Indian Potash Ltd (IPL) in India, Industries Chimiques du Senegal (ICS) in Senegal and Oman India Fertilizer Company (OMIFCO) in Oman are important fertilizer joint ventures. Indo Egyptian Fertilizer Co (IEFC) in Egypt is under implementation. As part of strategic diversification, IFFCO has entered

12

www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

into several key sectors. IFFCO-Tokio General Insurance Ltd (ITGI) is a foray into general insurance sector. Through ITGI, IFFCO has formulated new services of benefit to farmers. 'Sankat Haran Bima Yojana' provides free insurance cover to farmers along with each bag of IFFCO fertilizer purchased. To take the benefits of emerging concepts like agricultural commodity trading, IFFCO has taken equity in National Commodity and Derivative Exchange (NCDEX) and National Collateral Management Services Ltd (NCMSL). IFFCO Chattisgarh Power Ltd (ICPL) which is under implementation is yet another foray to move into core area of power. IFFCO is also behind several other companies with the sole intention of benefiting farmers.

The distribution of IFFCO's fertilizer is undertaken through over 37,000 cooperative societies. The entire activities of Distribution, Sales and Promotion are cocoordinated by Marketing Central Office (MKCO) at New Delhi assisted by the Marketing offices in the field. In addition, essential agro-inputs for crop production are made available to the farmers through a chain of 158 Farmers Service Centre (FSC). IFFCO has promoted several institutions and organizations to work for the welfare of farmers, strengthening cooperative movement, improves Indian agriculture. Indian Farm Forestry Development Cooperative Ltd (IFFDC), Cooperative Rural Development Trust (CORDET), IFFCO Foundation, Kisan Sewa Trust belongs to this category. An ambitious project 'ICT Initiatives for Farmers and Cooperatives' is launched to promote e-culture in rural India. IFFCO obsessively nurtures its relations with farmers and undertakes a large number of agricultural extension activities for their benefit every year.

At IFFCO, the thirst for ever improving the services to farmers and member cooperatives is insatiable, commitment to quality is insurmountable and harnessing of mother earths' bounty to drive hunger away from India in an ecologically sustainable manner is the prime mission. All that IFFCO cherishes in exchange is an everlasting smile on the face of Indian Farmer who forms the moving spirit behind this mission.

IFFCOs NPK plant is located on the water front adjacent to Kandla Port

Trust Oil Jetty. The plant was built at a cost of about Rs. 30 crores with two streams (called train A and train B) and with the licensed capacity of 127000 tonnes of P2O5. This plant was designed by the M/s Dor Oliver-Inc., to produced three grade ok NPK based on DAP, the plant was commissioned on 26th November, 1974 and its commercial production started on 1st January, 1975.

With increase in demand for complex fertilizers, the capacity of NPK has

been doubled at a cost of about Rs. 28.6 crores. Two more streams (Train C and Train D) had been added with the increased licensed capacity from 127000 MT P2O5 to 260000 MT P2O5 per annum. The new two streams are called Kandla Phase II was completed one month ahead of the projected schedule. This is a rare phenomenon not only in India but in entire South East Asian region. Kandla Phase II commissioned on 4th June, 1981 with the production record for IFFCO. The production of Kandla Phase II was started from 6th September, 1981.

IFFCO went for expansion of their unit at Kandla in 1996-97. Kandla

phase-II NPK/DAP project conceptualized the setting up of two additional streams (train E and train F) for manufacture of the same grades of NPK/DAP fertilizers with an annual production capacity of 2,10,700 MTPA thus increasing the total capacity from 3,09,000 MTPA of P2O5 to 5,19,700 MTPA of P2O5. The actual cost of the project was Rs. 205.30 crores against a budgeted cost of Rs. 212.20 crores.

20

www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

The total annual production of the Kandla unit was 127000 MTPA as on

26th November, 1974 with two streams (train A and train B), which was increased by 182000 MTPA as on 6th September, 1981 by starting two more stream (train C and train D), which was further increase to 210700 MTPA as on 1999 by introducing two more streams (train E and train F). So currently the total production capacity of the both plant at Kandla unit is 519700 MTPA. Currently all six streams (train A, B, C, D, E and F) is working in its full-fledged capacity and giving its optimum output.

BUDGET AND BUDGETARY CONTROL

INTRODUCTION

Complexities are increasing in running the modern business and management has to face a number of problems, which are to be solved with utmost care. Number of new tools and techniques are being evolved and used by management in modern times to solve such complex problems of business. Budgeting is one of such effective tools in the hands of management. Now planning has become an inevitable part of business management. They have come to realize that success in business depends to a large extent on the planning of its activities with great care and foresight. The management gets ready to face the challenges of future contingencies by peeping into the future. They are thus able to keep off the heavy financial losses and fatal errors. It is through budgeting that the management is able to guide the business in proper direction. Budgeting is both planning and controlling, two most important functions of management. It is perhaps a very important tool for achieving business objectives.

What is Budget ?

A budget is a financial and / or quantitative statement, prepared prior to a defined period of time, of the policy to be perused during that period for purpose of attaining the given objective.

An analysis of this definition will reveal the essential features of the budget, namely that:

1. 2. operated. 3. 4.

A budget can be expressed in terms of money or quantity, or both. It should be developed prior to the period during which it is to be

It is set for definite period. Before its preparation, the objective to be attained and the policy to be

pursued to achieve that objective are required to be laid down.

The Objectives Of Setting The Budgets:

A budget is blue print of desired plan of actions or operations. Plans covering the entire organization and all its functions like purchase, production, sales, financial management, research & development are expressed through budget. The budget serves as a declaration of policies and also defines the objective for executives at all levels of management. Budgets provide a means of co-ordination of the business as a whole. In the process of establishing budgets, the various factors like production capacity, sales possibilities, are procurement of material, labour, etc. are balanced and co-ordinate so that all the activities proceed according to the objective.

29

www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

The budgets inculcate team spirit and are like putting so many heads together to solve a common problem. Budgets are means of communication. Complex plans lead down by the top management are passed on to those whole are responsible for putting them into action. Budgets facilitate centralized control with delegated authority and responsibility. Group according to the responsibilities of different executive levels, they facilitate decentralization of work. Budgets are instruments of managerial control by means of which the management can measure performance in every part of the concern and take corrective actions as soon as any deviations from budgets comes into light.

Budgeting:

Institute of Cost and Management Accountants, England defines A Budget is a financial and/or quantitative statement, prepared and approved prior to a defined period of time, of the policy to be pursued during that period for the purpose of attaining objectives. It may include income, expenditure and employment of capital

Budgeting is an exercise in allocating scarce economic resources among alternative uses. The necessity of budgeting arises out of the scarcity of economic resources and the number of alternative uses in which these scarce resources can be deployed.

BUDGET AND BUDGETORY CONTROL AT IFFCO: KANDLA UNIT

METHOD OF BUDGETING AT IFFCO-KANDLA:

IFFCO-KANDLA follows Zero Based Budgeting system to prepare its budgets

What is Zero Based Budgeting????

The technique of Zero Based Budgeting starts with the premise that the budget for next period is Zero so long the demand for a function, process, project, or activity is not justified for each rupee from the first rupee up. The assumption is that without such a justification, no sending will be allowed. The burden of proof thus shifts to each manager to justify why the money should be spent to all and to indicate what would happen if the proposed activity is not carried out and no money is spent. In this way, he is required to carry cost-benefit analysis of each of the activities etc. under his control for which he is responsible. Such analysis would reveal that some activities may be eliminated or curtailed or made into productive and profitable ones. Thus Zero Based Budgeting affords a choice amongst the alternatives so that the activities would be selected in the order of their importance. However, Zero Based Budgeting is particularly suitable discretionary cost areas such as marketing, administration, production services, research, etc. and in Govt.

50

www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

departments where the decision for the extent of spending rest with the management or authorities and it is here that each rupee of the budget had to be justified.

Zero Based Budgeting at IFFCO???? IFFCO as whole follows Zero Based Budgeting system. As IFFCO-KANDLA is a manufacturing Unit and it is also cost centre so in the process of conversion of raw material into finished goods cost cannot be zero because for the manufacture of goods for sale cost have to incurred for: Purchase of raw material like: Phosphoric Acid Potash Ammonia Urea Sulphuric Acid Filler MAP Utilities (power, fuel oil, water) Bagging

Such situations are met by IFFCO by asking the managers to determine the minimum or basic requirements for running their departments; any cost above the basic requirement would be treated as added increments which would be critically reviewed and justified, they are to be eliminated resulting in cost saving to IFFCO.

51

BRIEF DISCRIPTION OF SALES BUDGET

The marketing division after receiving the intimation from the Head Office asks the zonal offices to prepare the sales estimations, the State Offices asks the Area Offices and the area offices asks the Co-operative societies to prepare the sales estimations for the next financial year. This way after completing all the procedure the sales estimates are prepared and forwarded by the Co-operative societies to the marketing division and the marketing division forwards it to the Head Office for the approval. The Head Office co-ordinates the budgets prepared by the marketing division (Sales Budget) and the budgets prepared by the Manufacturing Units (Production

Budget). If in the case the sales budget increases the production budget the Head Office imports the goods from the other countries to fill up the gap. This way the Head Office co-ordinates the production budget and sales budget. Usually the first of all budgets to be compiled is the sales budget: this particular budget will be dependent for creating the other budget proposals. These figures will have been calculated by multiplying the expected number of sales by selling price of the product. Perhaps the most important of all budgets is the sales budget. It is a statement of planned sales in terms of quantity and value, and analyzed into different grades of products. The area officer with his intimate knowledge will gather the information from the Govt. office at particular area about the previous record of rainfall, Demand and Utilization of the fertilizer and also current years projection for rainfall in that area. All information gathers are sent to higher authority of marketing officer on that basis the higher authority prepare the rough estimate for next year sales.

They also prepare separate sale budget according Grade wise production and also shown State wise sales to be achieved.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF CASH BUDGET

The budget is the link between all the individual budgets and the master budget. Cash budget forms the core of budgetary control. If adequate cash resources are available, even the best schemes are bund to fail. This budget is prepared on the basis of all the above budgets ad summaries the estimated receipts for each month from debtors, is receivable and other incomes along with opening balances shows the total receipts. It should also indicate month-wise disbursement for wages and salaries, purchases of materials and overheads charges, etc. On the basis of this budget, the financial controller is able to determine the need for additional funds and bank borrowings, if any, and also plan the allocation of working capital. If proper care is not exercised in preparing this budget, serious troubles are likely to arise at anytime during the year, particularly if long-term cash forecast is not properly made, future progress may be frustrated due to lack of funds.

AT IFFCO THE PROCEDURE OF CASH BUDGET:

All the units of IFFCO will make forecast there expenditure such as Capital Expenditure, Revenue Expenditure, Loans & Advances etc. for whole year and the same is divided into monthly requirement and send to the Head Office. Head Office will combined all the forecast of all Units (at KANDLA, PHULPUR, KALOL, ANOLA, Marketing and his own) and prepared Master Cash budget for the year. Where it shows details all the sources of income and where it will be disturbed for expenditure full detail planning is made monthly wise for whole year.

LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY

This study has been carried out only based on information obtained by interviewing personals in F & A Department IFFCO KANDLA. Information received was based on secondary data and on the primary guidance given by the employees there at IFFCO KANDLA. So any Error in source data that may change the Actual Scenario. This study has been carried out in a period of 15 days which is very less to know and understand an organization like IFFCO KANDLA. Major sources of structured information and data or Records up to last 10 Years have been used. Also to evaluate and ascertain financial position correctly of organization like IFFCO, a student like me of 22 years age is too less. I was interested to study following topics but couldnt make it, in absence of any information, as is handled by Head Office, New Delhi. o cash budget o sales budget It was advised to go through only in procedural information & Net to use any financial data pertaining to IFFCO as a whole or for IFFCO KANDLA UNIT. However at many places figures shown are as sample/Estimate figures & not the actual figures.

82

www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

FINDINGS & SUGGESTIONS FINDINGS: Sales are main source of Income. Raw Materials Cost consists of 95% of Total Cost. So Change in Raw Materials Price will strongly affect the Total Cost. For Continuity in Production there should be continuous Raw Material supply. So any deficiency in supply of Raw Materials will affect the Production. Whatever Project is undertaken at IFFCO KANDLA up to date all Projects duration and cost were achieved within the specified limit or budget figure. Continuously from last 15 Years IFFCO is providing the Dividend at the rate of 20% per Year. Punctuality in Timings and Management work is excellent at IFFCO. A well equipped System facility providing the LAN and VAN access for speedy communication. Environment control policy adopted by ISO - 14001 Certified. Best Employees welfare facility(As per the interviews of employees) (E.g. Residence for all the employees working at IFFCO) Every Employees Work is interlinked. EMD Security Retention Money and other amount an average of Rs. 4 5 Crores every Year at IFFCO Kandla. No Interest is paid to vendor and same amount is being lying in the society current Account. Strong Marketing Distribution Network. A well Future Set Plan MISSION 2010. A Strong Team of Directors from all over India. Great Support of Government of India & Fertilizer Ministry. A Strong Financial Status. A team work from Top Management to Lower Grade Staff to achieve the targets. A Chain (H.O.) between Management Plants (Kalol, Kandla, Aonla & Phulpur & Marketing office) all over India. IFFCO seems a good pay master for employees as well as suppliers.

83

www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com

A good atmosphere to work at & with IFFCO. Safety level is at highest point. A good training to employees.

SUGGESTIONS: Media Support should be taken to change the minds of farmers to use fertilizer in their farms. IFFCO one of the countrys largest producer of fertilizer in industry fertilizer is situated at Kandla -Kachchh but then also there are many villages in Kachchh only where still Concept of using Scientific fertilizer in farms is not Clear & popular. Still there are many farmers using the old concept of Cow Dunk as the only way of fertilizer in there farms. So proper suggestion and guidance should be given to change there mind set up. Work Load on employees should be equally divided. No body should be loaded with too much work and too less work equal distribution of work should be there. Employees should motivated to invest in IFFCO itself during their service & even after retirement in FDR scheme of IFFCO at H.O. If employees agree at the time of retirement to convert his PF, Gratuity etc. in to FDR & as a special care Ex-Employees should be paid higher rate of interest on his investment interest to be paid to Ex-Employees on monthly basis so the fund remain safe in the hand of IFFCO &Ex-Employees gets its return on monthly basis to pull out his remaining life happily & safely.

CONCLUSION.

I have carried out my training in a period of two months in Finance and Account Department (F&A), IFFCO KANDLA). During this period I have studied in brief and have taken overview of the activities of each section of F&A Department at IFFCO KANDLA. And after the study I conclude that practices and procedures followed here at par with the industry standard and comply with legal and regulatory requirements.

During my training I have studied and analyzed IFFCOs annual report for the financial year 2006-07 and found that IFFCO is financially very strong due to its large reserves and has good credit in market, due to its high share of equity. It has paid 20% dividend which is ever highest by any P.S.U. or co-operative society in India.

Successful realization of VISION 2010 and MISSION 2005 will definitely made the society to emerge at top position in India. Also this would solve to its objective of being a socially responsible organization and work for welfare of farmers not only in India but also in abroad.

IFFCO is also Socially Responsible Organization who dose not only look after the wellbeing of their employees and share holder only but they also look after the welfare of farmers by many promotional programmers carried out under the schemes of IFFCO Kisan Sewa Trust and by the Indian Farm Forestry Development Cooperative (IFFDC).

RECOMMENDATIONS

I undersigned, have no experience and my age 22 is too less to valuate any industry giant like IFFCO. Also the training period of two months is too less to understand and analyze the vast functions procedure and regulatory requirements that needs to be carried out in cash section of finance and account department of IFFCO KANDLA. Yet I have tried my best and declare that the below mentioned few

suggestions that can be better coated than recommendations are no way on attempt or intention to criticize organization like IFFCO & its management or employees, but only they are to serve as indicators of level of my understanding of the activities carried out in various sections of Finance and Account Department of IFFCO KANDLA.

The whole process of implementing zero based budgeting is not only a tedious job, but also a costly affair. Moreover, the insight of experience gained in several years of preparing budget is not being used. All the cost are allocated to a single factory overhead. Moreover, budget for Township is combined with Plant which doesnt give a clear picture of the expenses to be incurred in the budgeted year for the plant only. Trend of re-appropriation of budgets is not a healthy task
