 CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
Indian sub-continent is the second largest manufacturer of garments after China being global
leader in garment production. India is known for its high-quality garments for men and most
of the garment manufactures are in the small and medium scale industry. Indian men’s clothing
industry has been growing steadily over the past few years, this has been possible owing to the
Indian male becoming more fashion conscious and hence there is more consumption which has
increased global demand of men’s garments by the rest of the world.

India’s textile sector is one of the oldest industries in Indian economy dating back several
centuries. India’s overall textile exports during FY 2017-2018 stood at US$ 39.2 billion in FY
18 and is expected to increase to US$ 82.00 billion by 2024 from US$ 300 billion in FY 19.

The Indian textile industry is extremely varied, with the hand-spun and hand-woven textiles
sectors at one end of the spectrum, while the capital- intensive sophisticated mills sector at the
other end of the spectrum. The decentralised power looms and knitting sector from the largest
component of the textiles sector. The close linkage of the textile industry to agriculture (from
raw materials such as cotton) and the ancient culture and traditions of the country in terms of
textiles make the Indian textiles sector unique in comparison to the industries of other countries.

MARKET SIZE

The Indian textiles industry, currently estimated at around US $ 108 billion, is expected to
reach US $ 223 billion by 2021. Indian textiles have contributed 2.3% to the GDP of India. It
employs more than 45 million people directly and 60 million people indirectly. The sector
contributed 12% to export earnings.

FUTURE OF INDIAN TEXTILE INDUSTRY

The future for the Indian textile industry looks promising, buoyed by both strong domestic
consumption as well as export demand. With consumerism and disposable income on the rise,
the retail sector has experienced a rapid growth in the past decade with the entry of several
international players like Marks & Spencer, Guess.

TIRUPUR GARMENT INDUSTRY

Tirupur Export Association (TEA), India’s leading readymade cluster, has reported a 9.3%
growth in its exports at Rs.32000 crore in fiscal 2020 compared to Rs.30000 crore, taking the

11
total businesses during the fiscal to Rs.60000 crore. The annual average export growth of 7%
was recorded in the last fiscal, while analysing the export trend in the last six months, the
average export growth was about 35.15% over corresponding period in 2018-2019, which is a
positive sign.

For the past two years, the industry is struggling due to various reasons, including covid
lockdown, demonetisation, implementing of GST and overall volatile global economy.
However, it regained its pace in the fiscal 2021 as most of the major issues have settled now
and the member companies of this region are back to growth.

Factors like changing design pattern across the globe, changing lifestyle both in India and
abroad, availability of cotton, skilled workforce, fashion-oriented world, more per capita
spending on garments and China’s non-aggressive push are among a host of things that will
benefit India in general and Tirupur exporters in particular.

OBJECTIVES OF THE TRAINING

• To learn about the functions of various departments.

• To develop and improve business skills.
• To build strength, teamwork spirit and self-confidence.
• To experience the business environment.

The various departments are

i. MERCHANDISING DEPARTMENT
ii. SAMPLING DEPARTMENT
iii. HUMAN RESOURCE DEPARTMENT
iv. PURCHASE DEPARTMENT
v. PRODUCTION DEPARTMENT
vi. QUALITY CONTROL DEPARTMENT
vii. FINANCE DEPARTMENT

i) MECHANDISING DEPARTMENT

Merchandising department works as a mediator in between factory and buyers. This department
is considered as the heart and soul of the company. They coordinate with buyers for orders,
send garment samples for buyer approval and receive comments on samples and other
approvals. Merchandiser prepares the bill of materials, prepares garment costing sheet and
follows up of production activities. Basic information such as type of fabric, colour, print,
embroidery, weight in grams, etc are collected from the buyer. And he oversea the order right
from the time the order has been received till calculating account profitability and shipment.
This department coordinates with buyer, various departments within the organisation, suppliers
and job workers logistics outside the company. The merchandiser workout on the quantity of
raw materials required for production. The amount of requirement of the product and cost and
price is fixed. After the shipment he carry out the payment follows up. Hence the merchandiser
has overall control over the order.

FUNCTIONS

• Production scheduling

• Approval of designs and patterns

• Follow up of pre-production activities

• Development of new garment styles and samples

19
• Coordinating with the inspection agencies

• Reporting the progress of orders to the buyers as well as top management

ii) SAMPLING DEPARTMENT

Sampling of garments is given great emphasis. It determines the approval of future orders from
buyers and fetches business for a garment manufacturing or export company. Sampling is one
of key elements of the pre-production processes in a garment industry. Before a manufacturer
produces bulk orders, a prior sampling of styles is done to get approvals and jumpstart
the fabrication of garments. The various samples will be provided to the buyer before each and
every process of production. If there occur any changes the product is then redesigned
according to the buyer’s requirement. Sampling is not just for buyers, but the manufacturers
can also derive estimates of yarn consumption for development of fabric, dyeing, printing, and
stitching cost for a particular style or pattern given by the buyer. Companies can have a separate
sampling department or a merchandiser, who works closely with the sampling section to source
raw materials, and processes for developing a quality product for an affordable price.

Sampling includes details like a product/style code or a reference number, color specifications,
kind of fabric, composition, description, quantity, and details of embroidery, buttons, zippers,
or any other sort of accessories used. Hence it can be said that samples of garments work as a
bridge between buyers and the producers.

There are many people who are involved directly and indirectly in the process of sampling.
Designers, buyers, individuals engaged in sourcing and purchasing, production team, quality
control personnel, and the costing department at different levels work closely on the sampling
of garments.

There are various types of samples that are developed by manufacturers depending on the
requirement of their respective buyers. The following is a list of different kinds of samples used
in the garment export industry:

Promotional samples or salesmen samples are developed to procure orders from retailers.
These are good quality samples, which use actual accessories and fabrics. The buyer has to pay
for these kinds of samples.

20
Fit samples are designed to check the measurements, fit, and the style. Details of construction
of the garment and standards needed to be maintained by the manufacturer are maintained in
these samples. Certain times these samples are tried on models to check the fitting and the fall
of the garment.

Size samples are sent to the buyers once the fitting is approved in small, medium, large and
other sizes as per the requirement. Mass cutting of fabrics begins only once a final approval of
all the sizes is received.

Pre-production samples are the samples, which are made in the production department once
all the above sampling approvals are received. They are made with the actual fabrics,
trimmings, and accessories that will be used in the future placed order. After a full and final
approval is received from the buyer, the actual production can proceed.

Chart No.3.1

Production Process

24
KNITTING

Knitting plays a key role in the manufacturing process. Knitting is the operation of
producing knitted fabric according to the design by the knitting machine. In the knitting
process, multiple loops of yarn are created, called stitches and formed in a line or tube.

The knitting operation creates multiple active stitches at one time in the knitting machine.
These stitches were done by the needle of the machine. The fabric consisting many consecutive
rows of intermeshing of loops. As the progress of one loop, the same time another is creating.
The knitting machines are from Mayer & Cie. which produce a variety of flawless knits
including single jersey, double jersey, auto stripped, fabrics, lycra, jersey, and electronic
jacquards. The knitted cloth may be tubular i.e, round or open width. Interlock is a type of
fabric in which the thickness of the cloth will be greater.

The machines are fully automated. The quality is based on machine maintenance.

Figure No. 3.1

Knitting

DYEING

The process of applying color to fiber stock, yarn or fabric is called dyeing. There may or may
not be thorough penetration of the colorant into the fibers or yarns. Dyeing can be done at any
stage of manufacturing of textile fabric, yarn, fabric or a finished textile product including
garments and apparels. The property of colour fastness depends mainly on two factors,

1. Selection of proper dye according to the textile material.

2. Selection of the method for dyeing the fabric.

25
 Figure No. 3.2
Dyeing

WASHING

Normally we use the word ‘washing’ to mean cleaning. But in the case of garments, washing
is not limited to this function. For garments, washing is not only required for cleaning but also
required for improving fabric quality, increase the softness of fabric, reduce shrinkage,
removing dirt, and for creating colour effects. In other sense, washing is a technique used to
remove impurities dirt, dust, oil, etc. from the surface of garments, softness feeling of cloths,
outlook fashion of the apparel, and increasing colourfastness.

TYPES OF WASHING:

• NORMAL WASHING- Normal washing is the simplest type of washing with lowest
washing cost. By this system starch materials present in the new garment is removed
together with dirt, hence after wash the garments feel soft during use. During normal wash
on garments, washing effect could be varied by altering washing temperature, washing
time, quantity of detergent used etc.
• PIGMENT WASHING- Pigment washing process is similar to normal washing process.
Apparels are made from pigment dyed or pigment printed fabric. Then the apparels are
subjected to pigment washing. By this washing, fading effect is produced in the garments.
• BLEACH WASH- There is a similarity between bleach and pigment washing. In both the
cases, partial colour fading effect is produced. In case of bleach washing, the fabrics of the
apparels are normally dyed with direct or reactive dye.
• STONE WASHING- It is done on the garments made from heavy fabrics like denim and
jeans. It is a very popular wash. Due to this type of washing, different types of irregular

26
 colour fading effect is produced. Moreover, shrinkage also occurs in the apparels resulting
correct size of the garments.
• ACID WASH- Apparels made from denim and heavy jeans fabric are normally considered
for acid wash. Fading effect is produced in irregular pattern by the use of pumic stone.
Garments like trouser and jackets are frequently washed by acid washing technique.

COMPACTING

Compacting process is used for controlling shrinkage of fabric, GSM control and make
compaction the fabric in length wise direction to provide over feed to the fabric while
processing in presence of steam and able to control the shrinkage. Compacting can be done
with both open width fabric and tubular fabric. Residual shrinkage of the fabrics can be brought
down to 3% to a maximum of 0.
Compactors are of two types:

1. Open width compactors

2. Tube compactors

Figure No. 3.3

Compacting

PATTERN MAKING AND CUTTING

Pattern Making is a blueprint for the garment, on the basis of which the fabric is cut. It is the
technical drawing or drafting of a garment. Standard size charts, dress forms or figure are
measured, these measurements are then converted into 2D patterns and then garments are made
from them.

27
 Figure No. 3.4
Cutting Patterns

Cutting is one of the most important stage in the garment manufacturing process. The fabric is
first cut using the first pattern to make any garment. To make complete the garment, the fabric
is cut into several pats, then these cut parts are sent to the sewing department for stitching,
where the whole garment is made by adding these parts.

Figure No. 3.5

Cutting machine

PRINTING

Printing is a process of decorating textile fabrics by application of pigments, dyes, or other

related materials in the form of patterns. Textile printing is related to dyeing but in dyeing the

28
whole fabric is uniformly coloured with one colour, whereas in printing one or more colours
are applied to it in certain parts only and in sharply defined patterns.

TYPES OF PRINTING:

• CHEST PRINTING – This type of printing is done either after cutting or after finished
the full garment. Techniques used for this type are
1. Pigment printing
2. Discharge printing

It can be done manually and automatically. When it is done manually only four colours are
available whereas automatically the colour ranges up to 10 colours.

• ALLOVER PRINTING – All over printing is done only by manual method.

• POLYSTER PRINTING – Polyester printing is only done by digital method.

Figure No. 3.6

Printing machine

EMBROIDERY

Embroidery is the process of embellishing the surface of textiles with decorative stitching using
colourful threads often made of cotton or silk. It gives elaborate shadings to fabric variety of
pigment, discharge, embossed, flock and foil prints.

29
 Figure No. 3.7
Embroidery

SEWING

Sewing is an important department in the garments manufacturing industry. All the parts of a
garment are joined here by making stitches with the help of a needle and thread.

SEWING MACHINES:

The most common types of sewing machines used are

• SINGLE NEEDLE MACHINE - Single machine is the most commonly used

sewing machine in the apparel industry, especially in woven garments.

• OVERLOCK MACHINE

• FLATLOCK MACHINE
Figure No.3.8
Sewing machines

30
vi) QUALITY CONTROL DEPARTMENT

CHECKING

For the textile and apparel industry product quality is calculated in terms of quality and standard
of fibers, yarns, colour, designs of the final finished garment. Quality control in terms of
garments manufacturer, pre-sale and post sales service, delivery, pricing, etc. are essential for
garment manufacturing, trade or export.

Certain quality related problems are often seen in garment manufacturing like sewing, colour,
sizing or garment defects which can never be overlooked.

SOME OF THE DEFECTS:

• SEWING DEFECTS – Wrong stitching techniques, non-matching threads and missing

stitches, improper creasing of the garment, erroneous thread tension and raw edges are
some of the sewing defects which can affect the garment quality adversely.
• COLOUR DEFECTS – Variation of colour between the sample and final garment,
wrong colour combination and miss matching dyes should always be avoided.
• SIZING DEFECTS – Wrong gradation of sizes, difference in various parts of a
garment like sleeves of XL size of L size garment can deteriorate the garment beyond
repair.
• OIL STAIN DEFECTS – Oil stain can be removed by oil stain remover. The stain is
due to the leakage from machine.

Figure No. 3.9

Checking process

31
IRONING AND PACKAGING

Ironing is the most important finishing process in the readymade garment sector which is done
by subjecting a cloth to heat and pressure with or without steam to remove unwanted creases
and to impart a flat appearance to the garments. Pressing or ironing is also done to introduce
creases in the apparel.

Objectives of ironing are

1. Removal of unwanted creases and crinkles,

2. Shaping,
3. To apply creases where necessary,
4. Under pressing,
5. Final pressing.

Figure No. 3.10

Ironing

After doing the iron and final check, the garments go for the packaging section. In this section,
the garments will be sorted on the basis of design and size and and then packed in some poly
bags and finally in the big cartons with the labels and price tags. Then the whole production is
ready for the delivery to its buyers

CONCLUSION

The industrial training in OM SARAVANA APPARELS was a good opportunity for me to

learn about the various aspects of the departments practically. The day to day function of
various departments were carried perfectly and efficiently.

During the training period the staff of various departments inside the organisation helped me
to know the duties performed by them and as well as do’s and don’ts of all functions in the
organisation. The training also helped me in improving my planning skills, coordination with
team members and time management. Overall, this internship period was very useful for me.

The company is known for its quality products and will maintain and succeed in all of its future
operations.
