I Ray Anuradha(Exam No.542008), hereby declare that the report for Summer Internship Project
titled "A Study on Performance Appraisal System at ONGC Ltd” is a result of My own work and
My indebtedness to other work publications, references, if any, have been duly acknowledged.
Place: Kadi
I have conducted A study on Performance Appraisal System at ONGC ltd. I have chosen this topic
because the performance appraisal is an essential part of human resource department‘s contribution to an
organization. An effective appraisal may not only eliminate behavior and work quality problem, it can
motivate an employee to contribute more.
So, Study and research on this topic it is very exciting and interesting for us.

contents of the report. These annexure includes the Questionnaire on the basis of which the primary data
was collected and research study was conducted.
INTRODUCTION
India is one of the fastest growing major economies in the world and the third largest consumer of
petroleum products, after US and China.1 Although there is an increased focus on gas and renewable,
demand for oil has always been on the rise, and is estimated to grow at least until 2040.2 As per the
report published by India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF)3, India’s energy demand is expected to
double to 1,516 million tonnes of oil equivalent (Mtoe) by 2035 from 723.9 in 2016. Moreover, India’s
share in global primary energy consumption is projected to increase by two-folds by 2035.
India’s total oil imports rose 4.24 percent year on-year to US$ 86.45 billion in 2016-17. India’s oil
consumption grew 8.3 percent year-on-year to 212.7 million tonnes in 2016, as against the global growth
of 1.5 percent, thereby making it the third-largest oil consuming nation in the world. India is the fourth-
largest Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) importer after Japan, South Korea and China, and accounts for 5.8
percent of the total global trade.
In 2016-17, India consumed 193.745 MMT of petroleum products, while the consumption stood at
184.674 MMT during 2015-16. In 2017-18, up to September, the figure stood at 96.82 MMT. India has
always been an import dependent nation in the Oil and Natural Gas (“O&NG”) sector. India’s domestic
crude oil production of 36.95 million tonnes in 2015-16 barely met 20 percent of its oil needs. Natural
gas output at 32.249 billion cubic meters meets less than half of its needs. As a result of significant
dependence on import, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has set a target to reduce dependence on crude
imports by 10% by 2022.
In India, the O&NG industry has huge potential and contributes over 15% to the India’s GDP. The
landscape in the O&NG sector promises to be dynamic with scope for growth of business entities. This
industry has always attracted foreign direct investments, and according to data released by the
Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP), the petroleum and natural gas sector attracted
FDI worth US$ 6.86 billion Among April 2000 and September 2017. With 3.14 million sq. km of
potential reserves lying unexplored until 2016, India’s potential in the oil and gas sector is immense and
there exists vast headroom for new discoveries

potential reserves lying unexplored until 2016, India’s potential in the oil and gas sector is immense and
there exists vast headroom for new discoveries by the massive domestic market. Separately, the
Government of India of India’s push towards a gas based economy is estimated to present new
investments and opportunities in this area. India’s focus on a gas based economy is in line with the
global commitment made at the Paris meeting on climate change, which aims to reduce India’s carbon
It is expected that India’s petrochemical market will grow at a compound annual growth rate of 10%
over the next five years and reach the $100 billion mark by 2022. The industry can potentially enhance
India’s growth through the development of niche products and promotion of exports
1: Upstream Sector: Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC), Oil India Limited and Crain Energy.
ONGC is the largest upstream company in E&P segment accounting for approximately 61.5 percent of
India’s total oil output. During the Financial year 2016, 1,118,000 meters of wells were explored and
developed in India, and during the same period, 506 wells were drilled in India.
2: Midstream Sector: Indian Oil Corporation, Gas Authority of India Limited, etc. Indian Oil
Corporation operates a 11,214 km network of crude, gas and product pipelines, with a capacity of 1.6
million barrels per day (mbpd) of oil and 10 million metric standard cubic meters per day (mmscmd) of
gas. This is around 30 per cent of the India’s total pipeline network.
3. Downstream Sector: Indian Oil Corporation, Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited, Hindustan
petroleum, etc. Indian Oil Corporation is the largest company, controlling 10 out of 22 Indian refineries,
with a combined capacity of 1.31 mbpd.
India is expected to be one of the largest contributors to non-OECD petroleum consumption growth
globally. Oil imports rose sharply to US$ 87.37 billion in 2017-18 from US$ 70.72 billion in 2016-17.
India retained its spot as the third largest consumer of oil in the world in 2017 with consumption of 4.69
mbpd of oil in 2017, compared to 4.56 mbpd in 2016.
India was the fourth-largest Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) importer in 2017 after Japan, South Korea and
China. LNG imports increased to 26.11 bcm in 2017-18 from 24.48 bcm in 2016-17.
Gas pipeline infrastructure in the country stood at 16,226 km at the beginning of February 2019.
Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) is an Indian multinational Oil and Gas company. Its registered
office is now at Deendayal Urja Bhavan, Vasant Kunj, New Delhi 110070 India. It is a Public Sector
Undertaking (PSU) of the Government of India, under the administrative control of the Ministry of
Petroleum and Natural Gas. It is India's largest oil and gas exploration and production company. It
produces around 70% of India's crude oil (equivalent to around 30% of the country's total demand) and
around 62% of its natural gas.
ONGC was founded on 14 August 1956 by Government of India, which currently holds a 68.94% equity
stake. It is involved in exploring for and exploiting hydrocarbons in 26 sedimentary basins of India, and
owns and operates over 11,000 kilometers of pipelines in the country. Its international subsidiary ONGC
Vides currently has projects in 17 countries.
ONGC has discovered 6 of the 7 commercially producing Indian Basins, in the last 50 years, adding
over 7.1 billion tonnes of In-place Oil & Gas volume of hydrocarbons in Indian basins. Against a global
decline of production from matured fields, ONGC has maintained production from its Brownfield like
Mumbai High, with the help of aggressive investments in various IOR (Improved Oil Recovery) and
EOR (Enhanced Oil Recovery) schemes. ONGC has many matured fields with a current recovery factor
of 25–33%. Its Reserve Replacement Ratio for Among 2005 and 2013, has been more than one During
FY 2012–13, ONGC had to share the highest ever under-recovery of INR 8993.78 billion (an increase of
INR 567.89 million over the previous financial year) towards the under-recoveries of Oil Marketing
Companies (IOC, BPCL and HPCL).On 1 November 2017, the Union Cabinet approved ONGC for
acquiring majority 51.11% stake in HPCL (Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited). On Jan 30th
2018, Oil & Natural Gas Corporation acquired the entire 51.11% stake of Hindustan Petroleum
Corporation.
In a government survey for fiscal year 2016-17, it was ranked as the largest profit making PSU in
India. It is ranked 11th among the Top 250 Global Energy Companies by Platts
Over 60 years of its existence ONGC has crossed many a milestone to realize the energy dreams of
India. The journey of ONGC, over these years, has been a tale of conviction, courage and commitment.
ONGCs’ superlative efforts have resulted in converting earlier frontier areas into new hydrocarbon
provinces. From a modest beginning, ONGC has a grown to be one of the largest EandP companies in
the world in terms of reserves and production business i.e., Acquisition, Processing and Interpretation
(API) of Seismic data, drilling, work-over and well stimulation operations, engineering and construction,
production, processing, refining, transportation, marketing, applied RandD and training, etc.
ONGC Growth
ONGC was set up under the visionary leadership of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru. Pandit Nehru reposed faith
in Shri Keshav Dev Malviya who laid the foundation of ONGC in the form of Oil and Gas division,
under Geological Survey of India, in 1955. A few months later, it was converted into an Oil and Natural
Gas Directorate. The Directorate was converted into Commission and christened Oil & Natural Gas
Commission on 14th August 1956.
"Not only had India..Set up her own machinery for oil exploration and exploitation... an efficient oil
commission had been built where a large number of bright young men and women had been trained and
they were doing good work" said Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, India's first Prime Minister to Lord
Mountbatten, on ONGC in 1959.
In 1994, Oil and Natural Gas Commission was converted in to a Corporation, and in 1997 it was
recognized as one of the Navratnas by the Government of India. Subsequently, it has been conferred
with Maharatna status in the year 2010.
In its 60 years of illustrious journey, ONGC has crossed many a milestone to realize the energy
aspirations of India. The journey of ONGC, over these years, has been a tale of conviction, courage and
commitment. ONGCs’ superlative efforts have resulted in converting earlier frontier areas into new
hydrocarbon provinces. From a modest beginning, ONGC has grown to be one of the largest E&P
companies in the world in terms of reserves and production.

Performance Appraisal is the systematic evaluation of the performance of employees and to understand
the abilities of a person for further growth and development. Performance appraisal is generally done in
systematic ways which are as follows:
1. The supervisors measure the pay of employees and compare it with targets and plans.
2. The supervisor analyses the factors behind work performances of employees.
3. The employers are in position to guide the employees for a better performance.

management Archive Appraisal data
Each method of performance appraisal has its strengths and weaknesses may be suitable for one
organization and non-suitable for another one. As such, there is no single appraisal method accepted and
used by all organizations to measure their employees’ performance.
All the methods of appraisal devised so far have been classified differently by different authors. While
DeCenzo and Robbins have classified appraisal methods into three categories: absolute methods,
relative methods and objective methods; Aswathappa has classified these into two categories past-
oriented and future-oriented.
Michael R Carrell et. All have classified all appraisal methods into as many as six categories: rating
scales, comparative methods, critical incidents, MBO and combination methods. Rock and Levis” have
classified the methods into two broad categories: narrow interpretation and broad interpretation. Beatty
and Schneier have categorized various methods of appraisal into four groups: comparative methods,
absolute methods, goal setting, and direct indices.
A more widely used classification of appraisal methods into two categories, viz., traditional methods and
modem methods, is given by Strauss and Sayles”. While traditional methods lay emphasis on the rating
of the individual’s personality traits, such as initiative, dependability, drive creativity, integrity,
intelligence, leadership potential, etc.; the modem methods, on the other hand, place more emphasis on
the evaluation of work results, i.e., job achievements than the personal traits! Modem methods tend to be
more objective and worthwhile.
1. Ranking Method:
It is the oldest and simplest formal systematic method of performance appraisal in which employee is
compared with all others for the purpose of placing order of worth. The employees are ranked from the
highest to the lowest or from the best to the worst.
In doing this the employee who is the highest on the characteristic being measured and also the one who
is lowest, are indicated. Then, the next highest and the next lowest Among next highest and lowest until
all the employees to be rated have been ranked. Thus, if there are ten employees to be appraised, there
will be ten ranks from 1 to 10.
2. Paired Comparison:
In this method, each employee is compared with other employees on one- on one basis, usually based on
one trait only. The rater is provided with a bunch of slips each coining pair of names, the rater puts a tick
mark against the employee whom he insiders the better of the two. The number of times this employee is
compared as better with determines his or her final ranking.
Such type of grading is done is Semester pattern of examinations and in the selection of a candidate in
the public service sector. One of the major drawbacks of this method is that the rater may rate most of
the employees on the higher side of their performance.
It is also highly simple to understand and easy to apply in appraising the performance of employees in
organizations. It suffer from the drawback that improve similarly, no single grade would rise in a
ratings.
Behaviorally Anchored Rating Scales is a relatively new technique which combines the graphic rating
scale and critical incidents method. It consists of predetermined critical areas of job performance or sets
of behavioral statements describing important job performance qualities as good or bad
MBO is a method of mutual goal-setting, measuring progress towards the goals, taking action to assure
goal attainment, feedback, and participation. It is a result oriented philosophy enabling an employee to
measure progress toward a goal which the employee often has helped set. In the goal-setting phase of
MBO, a superior and subordinate discuss job performance problems and a goal is agreed upon. Along
with mutual goal-setting, a major component of MBO is the performance review session Among the
superior and subordinate, which takes place regularly to evaluate progress towards specified goals
7. Self-Appraisal Method:
Self appraisal is an important part of the Performance appraisal process where the employee themselves
gives the feedback or their views and points regarding his performance. Usually this is done with the
help of a self appraisal form where the employee rates themselves on various parameters, tells about
their training needs, if any, talks about their accomplishments, strengths, weaknesses, problems faced etc
360 Degree Appraisal is a type of employee performance appraisal in which subordinates, colleagues,
co-workers, and managers all anonymously rate the employee. This information is incorporated into that
person’s performance review.
180 Degree Appraisal method is similar to the one of 360 Degree. The different is that an evaluated
person is assessed only by the first-line supervisor and himself.
1. First Impression (primacy effect): Raters form an overall impression about the rate on the basis
of some particular characteristics of the rate identified by them. The identified qualities and
features may not provide adequate base for appraisal.
2. Halo Effect: The individual’s performance is completely appraised on the basis of a perceived
positive quality, feature or trait. In other words this is the tendency to rate a man uniformly high
or low in other traits if he is extra-ordinarily high or low in one particular trait. If a worker has
few absences, his supervisor might give him a high rating in all other areas of work.
3. Horn Effect: The individual’s performance is completely appraised on the basis of a negative
quality or feature perceived. This results in an overall lower rating than may be warranted. “He is
not formally dressed up in the office. He may be casual at work too!”.
4. Excessive Stiffness or Lenience: Depending upon the raters own standards, values and physical
and mental makeup at the time of appraisal, rates may be rated very strictly or leniently. Some of
the managers are likely to take the line of least resistance and rate people high, whereas others,
by nature, believe in the tyranny of exact assessment, considering more particularly the
drawbacks of the individual and thus making the assessment excessively severe. The leniency
error can render a system ineffective. If everyone is to be rated high, the system has not done
anything to differentiate among the employees.
5. Central Tendency: Appraisers rate all employees as average performers. That is, it is an attitude
to rate people as neither high nor low and follow the middle path. For example, a professor, with
a view to play it safe, might give a class grade near the equal to B, regardless of the differences
in individual performances.
6. Personal Biases: The way a supervisor feels about each of the individuals working under him -
whether he likes or dislikes them - as a tremendous effect on the rating of their performances.
Personal Bias can stem from various sources as a result of information obtained from colleagues,
considerations of faith and thinking, social and family background and so on.
7. Spillover Effect: The present performance is evaluated much on the basis of past performance.
“The person who was a good performer in distant past is assured to be okay at present also”.
8. Recency Effect: Rating is influenced by the most recent behavior ignoring the commonly
demonstrated behaviors during the entire appraisal period.
Therefore while appraising performances, all the above biases should be avoid.

E-PAR PROCESS
Earlier, in ONGC Ltd., Mehsana physical format were being used for performance appraisal. The
experience of filling performance appraisal in physical format revealed that there was inordinate delay in
recording the appraisal; it was very difficult to trace PAR movement. This also resulted in low priority
accorded to record performance appraisal. The non-availability of PAR had directed impact on many
HR processes like Promotions, Placement, Training, Awards etc.
E-PAR system was implemented in ONGC Ltd., since 2008. The basic purpose of implementing E-
PAR system was to-
Timely completion
SALIENT FEATURES
Uniform application across the company and standardize performance criterion, minimize
subjectivity

Access to Appraise and Reporting Officer thrice a year for E1- E5 Level and once a year for E6-
E9 and class II, III, IV.
II. Mid-term review: The system facilitates Mid-term Review done during job rotation,
transfer and change of assignments.
III. Final Appraisal Report: The final assessment would be done at the end of assessment
year. Weight-age for Performance and Potential varies with level of executives.
Stage – I (Initial Report – INR) In this stage the PAR chain is obtained by the PAR officers
from Head of different departments for the executives working in that department. The PAR
officer generates PAR in the system in the month of March for next assessment year and
place reporting chain for each executive as received from concerned departments. The PAR
is available to individual in ‘WEBICE’ on 1st April, i.e. on the first day of assessment year
for writing KPIs. The executives write KPIs in consultation with the Reporting Officer. The
Reporting Officer has to accept these KPIs, which are targets for the year. The executives
may take a print out of these KPIs. Stage
Stage - II (Mid Term Review – MTR) The PAR is available to executives again in the month
of October for Mid Term Review. During this process an executive may change the KPIs set
in the initial reporting or can change weightages given against the KPIs. The KPIs/
weightages set during the MTR are final targets and based on these targets executive is
assessed at the end of the year.
Stage – III (Final Assessment Report – PAR) In the initial evaluation, individual writes self-
appraisal based on KPIs/ targets fixed in INR/MTR. The assessment is done by Reporting/
Reviewing/ Moderating/ Accepting authorities as per PAR chain.
For Class- II, III and IV level employees will have only one stage FAR – Final
Appraisal Review. This means there is no KPI setting for these categories and as such
the PAR window for them will open only during FAR. During FAR, the E0
level/Class II employees are required to fill their self-appraisal. Class – III and IV
will not have to fill anything online. Their PAR processing will start from controlling
officer (Appraiser).
For E1 to E6 executives, the process has three stages Initial KPI setting, Mid Term
Review and Final Appraisal. E1-E6 process where process starts at the beginning of
the assessment year with setting of KPI.
For E7 and above also have only one stage FAR – Final Appraisal Review.
Final scores are conveyed to the employees including the marks given at Reporting/
Reviewing/ Accepting level.

Nancy Wairimu Mwema, and Dr. Hazel Gachoka Gachunga(2014) studied that the effects of
performance appraisal on employee productivity The main objective of this study was to establish
the effects of performance appraisal on employee productivity in the World Health Organization
focusing on Kenya Country Office, Garissa sub office, Somalia and Sudan offices based in Kenya.
Descriptive design was adopted in this study. Regression analysis was done to establish the effects of
performance appraisal on employee productivity. From the findings, the study concluded that
organizations should appraise their employees often through utilized targets, accomplishments,
organization goals, time management and efficiency for performance measure purposes as it would lead
to increased in employee’s productivity.
Sharmistha Bhattacharjee and Santoshi Sengupta (2011) studied that employees are the most
valuable and dynamic assets of an organization. For achieving the strategic objective of sustained and
Muhammad Faseeh ullah khan studied that Role of Performance Appraisal System on Employees
Motivation (2013): In many organizations, reward decisions depend on subjective performance
evaluations. However, evaluating an employee's performance is often difficult. In this paper, we develop
a model in which the employee is uncertain about his own performance and about the manager's ability
to assess him. The manager gives an employee a performance appraisal with a view of affecting the
employee's self perception, and the employee's perception of the manager's ability to assess
performance. We examine how performance appraisals affect the employee's future performance. The
predictions of our model are consistent with various empirical findings. These comprise (i) the
observation that managers tend to give positive appraisals, (ii) the finding that on average positive
appraisals motivate more than negative appraisals, and (iii) the observation that the effects of appraisals
depend on the employee's perception of the manager's ability to assess performance accurately.
An Assessment Of 360 Degree Performance Appraisal System (2018): The 360 Degree performance
appraisal is most commonly used to evaluate performance level of the employees. This method is very
reliable because the evaluation is done by different members working in an organization. This analysis
helps to find a solution to the problem that arises. An appraisal can be made by top management people,
superior, subordinate, peers, and customers. It is a full circle system of obtaining information from
internal as well as external sources of an organization. This feedback will focus on developmental
efforts of an individual and group. The satisfaction level of employees and retention level of employees
who undergo this feedback assessment process is the determinant factor of outcome.
A Study of Performance Appraisal System at IBM, Bangalore (2017): In this study, the operative
function in the human resource department is analyzed with respect to performance evaluation system of
the company. Performance appraisal system is considered as a significant tool in all organizations for
achieving goals effectively and efficiently. The study recommends the need to ensure fairness so that it
does not demotivate an employee or have a negative impact on goal accomplishment. The findings
revealed that the company has a very well designed Performance appraisal system, which involves
feedback as well as a reward system and the employees, are satisfied with the existing Performance
appraisal system. But, more efforts are to be made to make the approach more effective to ensure
increased productivity and high morale among the employees, which would lead to further growth of the
company in all respects.

ANALYTICAL TOOLS
The term analysis refers to the computation of certain measures along with searching for pattern of

CONCLUSION
The oil and gas sector is among the eight core industries in India and plays a major role in
influencing decision making for all the other important sections of the economy.
As of April 1 2019, the oil refining capacity of India stood at 249.4 million tonnes, making it the
second largest refiner in Asia.
ONGC is one of the largest Asia-based oil and gas exploration and production companies and
produces around 77% of India's crude oil(equivalent to around 30% of the country's total
demand) and around 81% of its natural gas.
It is concluded from the survey that employees are aware about the performance management
system and many people are satisfied with the current system and don’t want to change the
current system. Creating a trust amongst employee about performance review techniques and
maintaining good relationship with employees for improving their performance and
accomplishing goals and objectives of the organization should be taken care of.
