CHAPTER IV

THE GROWTH OF ENGINEERING INDUSTRIES IN GUJARAT: A

PROFILE OF ENGINEERING CORPORATE SECTOR IN

BHARUCH DISTRICT

4.0 Introduction

Gujarat on the west coast of India is an important State having a

geographical area of 1, 96,024 sq.kms and a population of 62700003 (Gujarat;‟s

population 2013). In the post-reform period, Gujarat in particular has witnessed

high growth in engineering along with the other industries. The demographic

trends in Gujarat, especially a slowing population growth rate and a rising share of

the population of working age, contribute to the rising per capita income.

Gujarat is continuing improvements in the state‟s investment climate. It is

one of the most attractive states for domestic private investors, setting-up Special

Economic Zones (SEZs), availability of large skilled managerial and technical

manpower, exporting almost 20 percent of India‟s total exports. And last, but not

the least, being a coastal state, with almost 1600 Kms of coastline, the State of

Gujarat can become a major platform for labor-intensive manufacturing exports in

the country, similar to what the coastal Chinese provinces have achieved during

the last two decades. To put it briefly following an export-led growth strategy,

Gujarat can get set for takeoff into a period of sustained high growth.

132

4.1 Augmentation of Engineering Industries in Gujarat

The industrial sector plays an important role in economic development.

The Government of Gujarat has accorded high priority to industrial development,

with the objective of achieving balanced growth and generating large scale

employment for youth – both in urban and rural areas – and, thereby, improving

the living standard of the people. Gujarat has witnessed impressive industrial

development since its formation as a state in 1960. The Share of the

manufacturing sector has increased to 37.2% in the Gross State Domestic Product

(GSDP) during 2002-03 at constant (1993-94) prices, as against 20% in 1980-81.

The industrial sector at present comprises of over 2000 medium and large units

and over 292000 small scale units. Gujarat accounts for 20.4% of fixed capital

investment, 15.3% of value of industrial production and 11.4% of value added in

the industrial sector of the country. Gujarat has achieved the distinction of being

the second largest industrially developed state in the country.

133

Fig 4.1:- Industrial Centres in Gujarat

Over the years, Gujarat has diversified its industrial base. The state has

become an important producer of various products in the country such as Soda

Ash (96%), Salt (68%), Polyester Filament Yarn (55%) and Refined Petroleum

products (50%), Phosphate Fertilizers (45%), Textile Fabrics (34%), Sponge Iron

(31%), Caustic Soda (28%), Cement (9%) and Sugar (8%). The state has also

achieved industrial dispersal. In 1960s only four cities namely Ahmedabad,

Vadodara, Surat and Rajkot and some isolated locations such as Mithapur and

Atul were the industrial centers. Today, almost all the districts have registered

industrial development.

The main reason for the fast development is due to a judicious exploitation

of natural resources such as minerals, gas, marine, agriculture and animal wealth.

134

The discovery of oil and gas in Gujarat has played an important role in setting up

of petroleum refineries, fertilizer plants and petrochemical complexes. The state

government has also established a good institutional network. Important amongst

them is the Gujarat Industrial Development Corporation (GIDC), which has

developed industrial estates providing developed plots and ready sheds for setting

up industries throughout the state. Institutions were also set up to provide term

finance assistance for purchase of raw materials, plant and equipment and

marketing of products. Later the District Industries Centers (DICs) were set up in

all the districts to provide assistance in setting up industrial units and for support

services. The state also developed the infrastructure required by the industries,

such as power, roads, ports, water supply and technical education institutions. The

state government has also introduced incentive schemes, from time to time, to

promote industries.

4.2 The Growth

Initially, the development of the textile industry led to the development /

promotion of units manufacturing textile parts, castings & spares, and came to be

known as textile stores. These developments, therefore, were restricted within the

small and medium scale industries, known as SMEs. With the growing

investments in other sectors like pharmaceuticals, chemicals and dairy, the

engineering sector continued to witness growth in Gujarat. Since August 1991 up

to April 2005, Engineering Industry including Metallurgical Products, Industrial

Machinery, Transport Equipments and Electrical Equipments and Electronics

accounts for an investment of Rs. 772 billion which is 20.70% of total investment

135

of the state. Similarly 869 projects of the Engineering Industry involving an

investment of Rs. 184 billion have been commissioned / concluded, accounting

for about 17.15% share in investment of the total projects commissioned. Also

371 projects envisaging an investment of Rs. 212 billion are under

implementation in the Engineering and Allied Industry. The Small Scale and

Factory Sector industry in Engineering and allied field has also shown an

impressive contribution with more than 33000 functioning SSI Units which is

about 20% of the total functioning small scale units and 5320 Factory Sector

Units in this sector.

4.3 Gujarat’s engineering goods and its share in National Production

Table 4.1 depicts Gujarat‟s share in the national production of engineering

goods.

The industrial clusters in Gujarat are very highly developed. Gujarat‟s

engineering industry has many achievements to its credit, viz.,

Largest producer of sponge iron in the country with 35% share.

Largest exporter of clocks in the world

All requirements of brass parts in the country are met by Gujarat.

Largest manufacturer of glass shells for TV tubes‟ production.

Important manufacturer of power generation plants, switch gears and

transformers

Important production center for Textile & Chemical machinery, Pollution

control equipment, printing machinery, air & gas compressors and

bearings, oil engines & electric motors, submersible valves.

136

Largest ship breaking yard, largest producer of SAW and ERW pipes.

2 Fabrication of metal products 10.4 %

3 Machinery and Equipment 10.4 %

4 Metallurgical industry 10 %

5 Electricals 7.3 %

6 Automotive including transport equipment 3.7 %

Engineering is the backbone of all the sectors of industry and therefore is

rightly reckoned as the Mother Industry, as it supplies plant and equipment to all

the industries. Gujarat over the years, has witnessed an impressive development in

the engineering sector, especially in the manufacture of foundry products,

electrical equipments machine tools and precision engineering products. The

Industrial machinery is another important segment, which has also recorded a

sizeable growth especially in the sectors like chemical machinery, textile

machinery, dairy machinery, paper machinery, material handling equipments,

plastic procession machinery, packaging machinery, Pharmaceutical machinery

and so on. Another important sector that has emerged in Gujarat is ship-breaking

yard at Alang, near Bhavnagar. Alang can boast of being the largest ship-breaking

yard in Asia.

137

Being a maritime state, the potential for shipbuilding and ship-repairing

also exist in Gujarat. With the large investment in pipeline, the engineering

industry has immense potential in industrial machinery, construction and

fabrication work. Bright potential also exists for setting up engineering ancillaries.

With the development of chemical and petrochemical sector in the state, the

pollution control equipment also offers investment opportunities.

Gujarat in fact has witnessed a remarkable growth in the engineering

sector, especially in the areas of foundry products, industrial machinery, electrical

equipment and precision engineering products. It also manufactures various

products like industrial valves, diesel engines, submersible pumps, forged

components, rolled products, ball and roller bearings. The areas which offer high

growth potential include auto ancillaries, investment castings, sintered products

and lightweight precision machine tools. There is, therefore a vast potential in

these sectors and Gujarat is better placed to cater to the needs and business

viabilities of such projects.

The major international engineering firms have shown interest in out-

sourcing production requirements from India due to its huge, inexpensive pool of

technical manpower. Also, there is a wide scope for setting up projects in areas

with high growth potential - auto ancillaries; investment, castings, sintered

products and light weight precision machine tools. Transnational companies

should explore the option of setting up manufacturing units in Gujarat, as it is

ideally situated and labour problems are virtually non-existent. Gujarat offers

138

excellent base for heavy engineering industry, automobile industry including

ancillaries, precision, electronically computer operated machine tools, farm and

farm equipment industry etc. Again, the developed ports in the State offer an

added advantage in the form of easy access to other ports of the world - an

important factor for transportation of capital goods and heavy machinery.

4.4 Factors responsible for the growth of Engineering Industry in

Bharuch District

The credit for right kind of evaluation and subsequent execution of

infrastructure projects benchmarked with the best in the world including roads,

rail and ports goes not only to the successive bureaucrats but also to the people of

this land who crystallized economic development with –Pragmatic planning, Even

distribution of funds, Apt fiscal policies, Resurgence of technology-oriented

agricultural growth etc.

4.4.1 The Status of Economy

Gujarat accounts for 16 per cent of the country‟s total investment and 10 per

cent of expenditure. This is primarily due to the entrepreneurial spirit of its

people. The state‟s Gross Domestic Product (GSDP) grew at an average rate of

12.4 per cent per annum in the period 1994-2002. Its GSDP was estimated at US$

22 billion in 2003-2004 as against US$19 billion in 2003 –04 as against US$ 19

(Better to be in rupees) billion in 2002-03, which is a growth of 15.4 per cent

during the year.

139

A strong manufacturing sector is the bedrock of economic activity in

Gujarat. In the last two decades, the state witnessed an accelerated pace of

industrialization. The contribution of the manufacturing sector in the state

economy has doubled in the past decade because of its strategic location, excellent

infrastructure support, extensive natural resource base and a proactive

government.

Figure – 4.2: Sectoral Contribution to GDP

As of October 2004, the state has received the acknowledgments of 6,850

industrial entrepreneurs‟ memorandum for an estimated investment of US$ 59.24

million. According to the Annual Survey of Industries (2002-2003), Gujarat ranks

second in respect of state-wise percentage share in Net Value Added by

140

manufacturing in the factory sector in the country. Some of the features are listed

below:

Gujarat is India‟s most industrialized state. It accounts for 20 per cent of

India‟ manufacturing output, 21 per cent of its exports and 30 per cent of its

stock market capitalization.

Gujarat ranks third in number of factories in the country

It is a leading state in terms of per capital gross output and per capita value

added in industries.

Projects worth US$ 7.3 billion are under implementation.

Gujarat is endowed with a rich and diverse mineral base. The principal

minerals found in the state are limestone, lignite and low-grade bauxite.

It is the second largest producer of lignite in the country producing 6.7

million tons.

It is the second largest producer of oil and natural gas producing 6.13 million

tones and 3.42 million cubic meters respectively..

The state produced 19.16 million tons of limestone and is one of the largest

producers of soda ash.

The recent success in natural gas explorations in the state has made an

immense impact on the industry. Riding on the wave of the recent gas

discoveries, India‟s first LNG terminal has been commissioned at Dahej port

and a gas pipeline grid is under construction. Both these initiatives would

provide inexpensive and clean fuel to industry in Gujarat giving it a

distinctive advantage.

141

4.4.2 Infrastructure

Gujarat was the first state in the country to enact the Gujarat Infrastructure

Development Act. The Gujarat infrastructure Development board set up in

1995.The provision made in this act facilitates the flow of funds from the private

sector into the infrastructure sector and ensures coordination among various

agencies. Gujarat was one of the first states to set up the industrial parks in India

and is now in the process of upgrading the infrastructure support for these parks.

The state is now focused on setting up industry specific parks which can offer

specialized services.

4.4.2.1 Social Infrastructure

The state leads in labour productivity in the country and the highest

proportion of the state‟s populace is engaged in running the owned businesses.

The state‟s literacy rate stands at 69.1 per cent, which is higher than the national

average of 65.38 per cent. Gujarat is home to India‟s leading business school, the

Indian Institute of Management and other important institutions such as National

Institute of Design (NID), National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT),

Entrepreneurship Development Institute of India (EDI) and Ahmedabad

Management Association (AMA) among others. The state also has 25

engineering colleges, 26 management institutions and 300 technical institutes. The

State Government plans to establish a shipbuilding university, a first of its kind in

the country in the district of Kutch. Further, the industrial development in the state

provides vast potential for setting up of new educational institutes in the areas of

marine engineering, port management, gems and jewelry design, fishery and fish

142

processing, urban planning, disaster management and biotechnology. The state

has high life expectancy levels, low birth and death rates and a low infant

mortality rate. 72.3 per cent of Gujarat‟s population is below the age of 45. The

state has 1,637 government hospitals and 1,070 primary health centers.

4.4.2.2 Access Infrastructure

Gujarat has 1,600 km indented coastline with 11 intermediate, 1 major and

29 minor ports, which handle over 80 per cent of the port traffic in the country.

Gujarat was the first state to announce a separate Port Policy, which integrates the

development of ports with industrial development, power generation and

infrastructure development. It was also the first state to privatize the construction

of ports in the country.

Gujarat‟s ports handle 20 per cent of the total cargo of the country. Other

ports in the state, the Gujarat Pipavav Port at Pipavav (Saurashtra) and the

recently commissioned Gujarat Adani Port at Mundra (Kutch) were the country‟s

first Greenfield ports to be developed on a Build-Own-Operate-Transfer (BOOT)

basis. Mundra is a state-of-the-art-port that facilitates berthing of large vessels

while Dahej in Gujarat is the country‟s only chemical handling port. It is

estimated that by 2015, Gujarat‟s port will handle 39 per cent of the country‟s

total cargo. Gujarat also has a road network spanning across 74,000 km. It is also

well connected by rail with 5, 310 km of rail lines. Though Gujarat is self-

sufficient in its needs for domestic and commercial water consumption, it has

initiated plans for the maximum development and utilization of water resources in

143

the state. The Sardar Sarovar project is one of the largest hydel and irrigation

projects of the country.

4.4.2.3 Industrial Infrastructure

The Gujarat Industrial Development Corporation (GIDC) has set up 168

industrial estates and another 106 are being developed in different parts of the

state. The state government has Special Economic Zones at Kandla and Surat and

a software technology part at Gandhinagar. GIDC plans to set up an apparel park

in Surat. Additionally, GIDC has developed an industrial part at Dahej, which

includes a petrochemical complex and facilities like a private airstrip, effluent

collection and disposal, liquid chemical port and railway lines. To encourage

investment in the state, Gujarat also gives autonomy and funds to industrial

estates to implement maintenance and modernization measures. It is also

encouraging organizations to set up units in these zones by giving them tax

holidays and subsidies like exemption from stamp duty and registration fees.

Leading Industrial Sectors

The Central Statistical Organization (CSO) undertakes an annual survey of

industries (ASI) of industrial units covered under the Factories Act 1948.

Information is collected every year to know the performance of the industrial

sector. As per ASI results, the value of output in the industrial sector in Gujarat

was Rs. 7160 crore in 1980-81, Rs. 25793 crore in 1990-91 and Rs.118551 crore

in 1999-2000. It further improved to Rs.147638 crore in 2001-02 (Table 2).

144

4.5 Power

Power is the key to industry and Gujarat has a good record of consistent

power supply for commercial use. The state has planned several initiatives to

build adequate capacity in generation, transmission and distribution of power

supply. These include rationalizing the power tariff structure, encouraging power

generation from non-conventional sources, focusing on energy conservation and

improving the quality of services to consumers. As the largest producer of natural

gas in India, Gujarat intends to set up an extensive state-wide gas grid to augment

its exiting power capacity. The grid will use gas supplied by the recently

commissioned LNG terminals at Dahej. In fact by 2020, 20 percent of the

country‟s energy needs will be met by natural gas and Gujarat would play a

crucial role in fulfilling these requirements.

Figure – 4.3: The share of important sectors in industry (District-wise)

The SSI sector has developed in different industries. The trend is similar to

the overall industrial scenario in the state. The textiles and textile machinery have

played a major role. The Chemicals, followed by plastic processing, are also

placed high. The Engineering, paper and mineral based industries have also

146

developed in the SSI sector. The important industrial sectors within SSI are as

under:

Figure – 4.4: The important industrial sectors within SSI

4.6.1 Medium and Large Industries

All industrial units other than the small scale are classified as Medium and

Large Industry (MLI). An entrepreneur desirous of setting up a MLI project needs

an approval from Government of India (GOI) under the Industries (Development

and Regulations) Act. In July 1991, GOI liberalized the licensing procedure and

exempted almost all the industries from taking industrial license, except few

which are of strategic importance. As per the present licensing procedure, only

two industries are reserved for the public sector and four industries, which are of

strategic importance, need an industrial license to start the project. The remaining

industries are required to file Industrial Entrepreneur Memorandum (IEM) with

GOI, after observing certain requirements with respect to location and

147

environment. Thus, the procedure for starting a MLI are simple - filing of IEM,

obtaining Letter of Intent (LOI) for licensed industries (which are very few) and

obtaining License of Production (LOP) for starting 100% Export Oriented Unit

(EOU).In order to assess the level of industrial development of a state, the number

of IEMs filed with the Secretariat of Industrial Approvals (SIA) of GOI is

considered an important parameter. The number of IEMs filed for Gujarat since

the liberalization process began in 1991 is given below.

Sector-wise analysis of the projects implemented and projects under

implementation indicates that the chemicals and petrochemical sector is dominant

in investment in MLI. The other important sectors are engineering, mineral based

industry, food processing, infrastructure projects and others. Engineering Sectors

in Gujarat state plays an important role in enhancing the revenue to the state as

well to the country by way of its contribution to their exchequer. This can be

viewed its percentage of compared to the other states in India.

Therefore the main focus of this study will be on the Electronic

Information Resources and the services available in these sectors. The population

for the study is selected from the total number of the institutions and corporate

sectors. Almost all the areas – Cities are covered so as to collect the data from

across the Bharuch district of Gujarat State by maintaining the uniformity. In

addition to the engineering sectors, the SEZs – Specialized Economic Zones are

also covered for the profile study as these are the latest developments in the

Industrial growth.

148

4.7 Business opportunities

Several factors contribute to making a state an attractive investment

destination. Major factors impacting evolution of industry in Gujarat are:

Proactive policies: The policy the State Government adopts towards a

sector directly affects the investment. For instance, the investment in

infrastructure can be related to the government policy seeking private

investment. This has given the state a head start in the sector.

Availability of natural resources: Certain industries like petrochemicals

have a high dependence on availability of natural resources. The recent

discoveries of gas reserves have provided a fillip to the industries in the

state.

Capability: The Engineering, gems and jewelry industry in Gujarat rallies

on the skilled manpower available in the state. The state is a leader in

terms of labour productivity. This has been a major factor enabling the

success of Gujarat in sectors like petrochemicals, textiles etc.

4.8 Economic and Industrial Scenario in Gujarat

4.8.1 Economic Cycles:

Rolling down the years since ancient trade, the changes were not only

Industrial but social and intellectual. 1500-1600s had great Merchant Traders and

money lenders who possessed high status in the world of business. By 1700s,

Surat flourished and it had pre-eminent position as chief trading center of India.

In present Business scenario, Gujarat is the home for Dynamic

Industrialists and Business Entrepreneurs. It is emerging as „EVA‟ (Economic

Value Added) State with sustainable Industrial Growth. The Industrial Policy acts

as a catalyst to face the challenges to manage the inevitable volatility of Industrial

Cycles. The remarkable resilience of the Economy of Gujarat as the fastest

growing state in the country, the fundamentals of its Economy is strong and

150

vibrant. The pro business approach of the Government has felicitated Gujarat‟s

relentless drive towards Industrialization by making the state an ideal Business

and Investor friendly destination, both for domestic and foreign.

4.8.2 Industries in Gujarat

Gujarat‟s Industrial Policy 2009 is geared for catalyzing Robust,

Sustainable and Inclusive Growth. The only state to emerge as „Investor friendly‟,

Gujarat has achieved the distinction of being the top most industrially developed

state in India in respect of investment in industrial sector and second among states

in respect of value of production and value addition in industrial sector in India.

Growth in the Industrial sector is as high as 12.5%. Overall, it contributes

to 16% of the Industrial production in the country. Gujarat also proves the

Investment-worthiness by mobilizing the highest share (22%) of investments in

2007-2008. Gujarat is a contributing State which accounts only for 5% of the

country‟s population and 6% of its geographical area. By exercising financial

discipline and rationalizing the tax structure, Gujarat is a revenue plus state.

4.8.3 Some highlighted fields:

A „Petro-capital‟ State of India, Gujarat offers 30% of Petrochemicals, 50%

Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals business.

Gujarat tops Agri Growth table at 9.6% with Agriculture Infrastructure

achieving maximum growth between 200-2008.

151

Gems and Jewellery Business in Gujarat is the fastest growing sectors in the

country. Supported by Policy Initiatives by the Government, in addition to

cutting and polishing of Diamonds, processing and jewellery design has also

gained prominence.

It is the largest producer (35%) and exporter (60%) of cotton and is the third

largest denim producer in the world. It offers India‟s 12% textile exports.

Known as the „Manchester of the East‟ and „Denim City.‟ Gujarat‟s six percent

of total Industrial Production comes from textile industry.

4.8.4 Large Units

Industrial Units with Investment exceeding over 10 Crores in Plant and

Machinery are classified as Large Scale Units. Approved by Government of India,

other remaining Industries are required to file under IEM (Industrial Entrepreneur

Memorandum) – and SEZ (export oriented or setting up a Project) require

permission from Development Commissioner, SEZ. Gujarat has major 1200 large

scale Industries and growing, thereby witnessing Industrial development since its

formation as a State in 1960.

4.8.5 Micro, Small and Medium Scale Units

The micro, Small and Medium Scale Units classify with Investments

ranging from various Investments in Plant and Machinery and Equipment. Gujarat

witness impressive development in SME sector. In 1961, the State had upto over

2000s of Industrial Units with a sharp rise as years roll down, leading to a

whooping 4 Lac SMEs catering to deal business expansions and robust leap

152

towards development. SMEs have the potential to provide support to the larger

units, provide employment and provide cost effectiveness. The Industrial Policy

provide special thrust on cluster development for SMEs.

4.8.7 Industrial Clusters

Industrial Clusters in Gujarat owe its impressive growing identity with the

rise of small and medium enterprises. Over a hundred Industrial Clusters are

identified with different types of Industrial activities and are being developed at

various locations. Cost competitiveness is enhanced as these Industrial Units are

supportive to common facilities, creating brands and developing market centers

and entrust skill enhancement.

4.9 Exports and Economic Zones

High on Exports with impressive performance, Gujarat‟s Export share in

India is highest contributing to an average over 14% share in India. Gems and

Jewellery deem for a rise to 25% and over. The Government is encouraging SEZ

153

(Special Economic Zones) considered as growth engines that can boost

manufacturing, augments exports and generate employment. These include multi

product SEZs and sector specific SEZs covering textiles, pharma, engineering,

chemicals, ceramics, gems and jewellery and IT/ITES sectors.

Gujarat has the distinction of being the first state to enact the Special

Economic Zone (SEZ) Act, 2004. Special Economic Zones (SEZs) are growth

engines that can boost manufacturing, augment exports and generate employment.

154

The Government has introduced the scheme of SEZs in order to provide a hassle

free operational regime and encompassing state of the art infrastructure and

support services.

Special Economic Zone (SEZ) is a specifically delineated duty free enclave

and shall be deemed to be foreign territory for the purpose of trade and operations

and duty and tariffs. SEZ units may be set up for manufacture of goods and for

rendering of services – public, private or joint sector or by the State Government.

SEZs, cover industrial and labour aspects, including flexible labour laws and exit

options. The Gujarat SEZ Act, 2004 has made key provisions with respect to the

appointment and termination of labour for units established in SEZs.

The concept of „Fixed Term Employment‟ introduced by the SEZ Act has

helped in accounting for the least manpower days lost due to labour strife, among

comparable industrial states.

Robust, Sustainable and Inclusive Growth. The Industry in Gujarat has evoked

new models of development. Enhancing IRs (Investment Regions) and SIRs

(Special Investment Regions) while traversing through Product Clusters,

Industrial Estates, Industrial Parks and SEZ, these phases have met with success

and co-exist as Gujarat plunges to expansion with Business growth. Increasing

Industrial activity in Gujarat has led to vast Investment Regions and immense

prosperity for the people of Gujarat.

Gujarat one of the most preferred Investment Destinations of the nation,

providing opportunities in almost all the sectors. Development is a mass

movement in Gujarat. Gujarat is a Power surplus state and with good

infrastructure, quick rederessal of business issues, pro-active and co-operative

Governance, Gujarat is a preferred Investment destination for almost every

business venture for which, there is transparency and openness.

4.13 Investment Regions (IRs)

Government of India announced the establishing the Dedicated Freight

Corridor between Delhi and Mumbai, covering an overall length of 1483km and

passing thru the States of U.P, NCR of Delhi, Haryana, Rajasthan, Gujarat and

Maharashtra, with end terminals at Dadri in the National Capital Region of Delhi

and Jawaharlal Nehru Port near Mumbai.

An Investment Region (IRs) are specifically delineated Industrial Region

with a minimum area of over 200 square kilometers (20,000 hectares), while an

Industrial Area (IAs) would be developed with a minimum area of over 100

square kilometers (10,000 hectares). (In Gujarat, as per the Ordinance Act, An

Investment Region will be developed in an area of more than 100 sq. kms and an

Industrial area will be developed in an area of more than 50 sq. kms.)

24 such nodes - 9 IRs and 15 IAs spanning across Six States have been

identified after wide consultations with the stakeholders i.e the State Governments

and the concerned Central Ministries. Six Investment Regions and six Industrial

Areas would be taken up for implementation in the 1 Phase during 2008-2012 and

rest of the development would be phased out in the next 4 years.

4.14 The nodes identified for Phase-1 for Gujarat are:

Bharuch-Dahej Investment Region: As Petroleum, Chemical and Petro-

Chemical Investment Region (PCPIR)

Vadodara-Ankleshwar Industrial Area: As General Manufacturing

159

4.15 Special Investment Regions (SIRs)

In January 2009, the State Government promulgated a legal framework -

The Gujarat Special Investment Regional Ordinance, 2009. State Government has

passed the SIR ordinance particularly to create large size Investment Regions and

Industrial Areas in the State of Gujarat; and to specially enable their development

as global hubs of economic activity supported by world class infrastructure,

premium civic amenities, centers of excellence and pro-active policy framework;

and to set up an organizational structure with that purpose.

This strategy of the State Government is complimented with the strategy of

the Government of India. Government of India has proposed a project of

Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC) between Delhi and Mumbai. The area of 150

kms on both sides of the DFC will be developed as the Industrial Corridor. 38% of

the length of the DFC is falling in Gujarat. As part of this Delhi-Mumbai

Industrial Corridor (DMIC), six mega industrial nodes (four industrial areas and

two investment regions) have been proposed for the State of Gujarat. Almost one

third of the proposed investments of about 90 billion US dollars in DMIC is

expected to take place in Gujarat alone. As part of the DMIC project, identified

industrial nodes have to be developed as Global Manufacturing and Commercial

Hubs. All kinds of infrastructure both within and outside the nodes also have to be

developed with global standards; Government of Gujarat has not only given its

full commitment for the DMIC project but has been actively working with the

Government of India on the same.

160

The DMIC (Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor) is strategically planned

Project of the Government covering 1483 kms, of which, 546 kms long route

covers Eighteen (18) Regions of Gujarat. Gujarat Government has incredible

development plans under this Project.

Six mega Investment Regions/Industrial nodes (four industrial areas and

two investment regions) in the DMIC Area Focus:

Dholera Ahmedabad Investment Region

Vadodara Ankleshwar Industrial Area

Palanpur Mehsana Industrial Area

Bharuch Dahej Investment Region as PCPIR

Surat Hazira Industrial Area and

Valsad Umergam Industrial Area

World class infrastructure facilities would be managed in these regions

with Industrial Policy framed for „Global Manufacturing and Trading Hub.‟

Investments with more than one Lac Crores and immense opportunities for man

power and service sector.

Moreover, Gujarat Government has implemented „Single Window

Clearance Act‟ with first of its initiative in the country. This reduces „Red

Tapism‟ and help in delayed permission procedures. Project proposals can be

made online. All necessary permissions can be obtained under single window,

making easier procedures.

4.16 Vibrant Gujarat 2015

The preparation of 7th Vibrant Gujarat Summit, which is planned during

11th to 13th January 2015 at Mahatma Mandir, Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India have

began well ahead by the Government of Gujarat after the Vibrant Gujarat 2013

Summit resounding success. Last summit has given an example of a visionary

approach of the Government of Gujarat towards inclusive and sustainable

development. The sixth edition of the summit provided enormous prospects to the

State to display its strengths, progressive stand, initiatives taken to improve

governance, investor friendly climate and art & culture of Gujarat.

Six summits held so far have been a resounding success that immensely

contributed to transformation of Gujarat into a "Global Business Hub". The brand

"Vibrant Gujarat" began as an "investors' summit" has now evolved into an ideal

platform for knowledge sharing, social and business transformation. The Summit

gradually evolved into a round-the-year investment promotion exercise with

events scheduled well in advance of the main Summit planned in 2015.

The prime focus of Government of Gujarat is Inclusive development and

the key areas for development identified included: Innovation, Sustainability,

Youth & Skill Development, Knowledge Sharing and Networking. Also, this

Summit is an ideal convergence for other states and other countries to showcase

their strengths, highlight business opportunities, facilitate knowledge

dissemination etc. It also provides an attractive opportunity to its participants to

understand the potential of Gujarat in various sectors. Besides, it provides

163

platform to interact with policy makers, industry leaders, and renowned

academicians from all over the world.

4.17 Special Economic Zones in Gujarat

SEZs in Gujarat approved by BOA as on 15/05/2013

Special Economic Zones (SEZs) are growth engines that can boost

manufacturing, augment exports and generate employment. The Government has

introduced the scheme of SEZs in order to provide a hassle free operational

regime and encompassing state of the art infrastructure and support services.

Special Economic Zone (SEZ) is a specifically delineated duty free enclave and

shall be deemed to be foreign territory for the purpose of trade and operations and

duty and tariffs. The goods and services going into Special Economic Zone area

from DTA shall be treated as exports and goods coming from Special Economic

Zone area into DTA shall be treated imports. SEZ units may be set up for

manufacture of goods and for rendering of services.

Special Economic Zones (SEZs) Scheme

4.17.1 Special Economic Zones – Government of Gujarat

• Gujarat Special Economic Zone Act 2004.

• Industrial Disputes (Gujarat Amendment) Act 2004.

• Gujarat Special Economic Zone Rules 2005.

• Gujarat Special Economic Zone Regulations 2007.

• General development Control regulations for SEZ 2007.

• Guideline for Preparing Master Plan of SEZ Area.

• Gujarat Special Economic Zone (Amendment) Act 2007.

• GRs related to SEZ and etc.

4.18 Gujarat Government to offer lignite for SMEs via NSIC

The state government is considering allocating lignite directly to the small

and medium industries through the National Small Industries Corporation (NSIC)

from Rajpardi mines in south Gujarat.

According to top government officials, the state government has given in-

principle approval to the plan, which will ensure cheap fuel for the small

industries. The government has appointed NSIC, a government of India enterprise

as nodal agency to distribute lignite among the small units.

4.19 Semiconductor wafer plants worth $10 billion to be set up in Delhi

and Gujarat

India has approved the setting up of semiconductor wafer plants by the

consortia, including IBM, Israel‟s TowerJazz and STMicroelectronics, costing a

total of INR 63,410crore. The groups had proposed building plants in India in

September, which the government had approved. One of the consortia is made up

of Jaiprakash Associates and TowerJazz and IBM. According to a government

statement, it plans to set up a plant near New Delhi at a cost of INR 34,399crore.

The second comprises HSMC Technologies India, Malaysia‟s Silterra and

STMicroelectronics. The group has proposed investment of INR 29,013 crore for

165

a plant in Gujarat. The final agreements for the two plants are expected to be

signed by August this year.

With a view to attract chipmakers to set up plants in India, the government

is offering concessions including 25 percent subsidy on capital spending, tax

breaks, and interest-free loans of about INR 5124 crore to each plant.

India, today consumes close to $7 billion of semiconductor products every

year. By 2020, when the total Electronic System Design and Manufacturing

(ESDM) market is expected to reach $ 400 billion, this consumption is expected

to rise to $55 billion. With the location of a fab in India, the country could

potentially achieve a degree of self-sufficiency in electronics, and partially reduce

the very high supply chain risks that India is exposed to, without an alternate

source for procurement.

4.20 Auto Expo 2014: Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India to invest INR

1,100 crore to set up new plant in Gujarat

Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI) will invest about INR 1,100

crore to set up its fourth facility in Ahmedabad for manufacturing scooters.The

company, which has three facilities in Haryana, Rajasthan and Karnataka, expects

the new plant to be operational by second half of 2015-16. HMSI President and

CEO Keita Muramatsu informed that Honda is going to establish a fourth facility

to produce scooters in India. He further added that the plant will be set up in

Ahmedabad and will have a capacity of 1.2 million units.

166

The new facility will have two assembly lines for scooters and would

create employment for 3,000 people.The company's current capacity is 4.6 million

units. HMSI, which manufactures motorcycles like CB Unicorn and CB Shine in

India, today unveiled a new scooter Activa 125 and CBR 650F (bike). Activa 125

is expected to be available in India in the first quarter of FY'15, while CBR 650F

will be available from 2015-16.

Gujarat Government has implemented „Single Window Clearance Act‟

with first of its initiative in the country. This reduces „Red Tapism‟ and help in

delayed permission procedures. Project proposals can be made online. All

necessary permissions can be obtained under single window, making easier

procedures.

The 2011 Summit alone generated MOUS worth Rs 20.83 trillion (one

trillion is equal to 100,000 crore). However, according to the Reserve Bank of

India, Gujarat was fifth among the states in cumulative foreign direct investment

(FDI) inflows between April 2000 and November 2012. Maharashtra, Delhi-

National Capital Region, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu were ahead.

Gujarat has an installed power capacity of 20,000 megawatt and consumes

12,400 MW. It has no power cuts. There is an uninterrupted power, which is

something, very few states in the country.

167

Table 4.4 Investments done in the earlier Vibrant Gujarat

The state's industrial parks are expanding. The Dahej GIDC estate is

getting ready for its third and fourth phases. In Sanand, Hitachi Hirel Power has

started operations and construction is in full swing by Colgate Palmolive. There is

a plan to make Dholera, 140 km from Ahmedabad and near the Gulf of Cambay, a

special investment region with several industrial parks and knowledge centres. It

would have world-class infrastructure including an international airport. But there

is nothing tangible yet, with the Dholera draft town plan yet to be finalised.

4.21 Future investment

Investment works US$ 23.4 billion were planned for Gujarat. This

infrastructure investment alone amounted to US$ 17.5 billion and a majority of

this was for developing the ports infrastructure. A number of multinationals are

also investing in gas grid and building LNG terminals in the state. The minerals

giant Hindalco intends to invest US$ 44 million for increasing its copper smelting

capacity to 500,000 tons per year.

72.45‟ to 73.15‟ East Longitude.

Bharuch District comes under Seismic Zone- III. Bharuch District is

bounded by Baroda and Anand District on the North, Narmada District on the

East; Surat District is on the South and on its west lays the Gulf of Cambay. The

Eastern strip of the district is a hilly and forest area.

4.23.2 Topography

182

The district enjoys moderate climate with greater humidity on its coastal

side. The average rainfall in the district is 750 mm to 800 mm.

Main rivers in Bharuch District are Narmada, Dhadhar and Kaveri.The rivers

flow throughout the year. Some of the important factors are:

Some of the major tourist destinations in the district are Bhrigu Rishi

Temple, The Golden Bridge, Kabirvad and Shuklatirth.

The Government of India has planned to develop a Dedicated Freight

Corridor (DFC) linking Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai.The proposed

DFC passes through six states in India, of which, Gujarat accounts for 38%

(564 km.) of total DFC length (1483 km.)

The influenced area of 150 km on either sides of DFC is being developed as

“Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor” (DMIC). Bharuch- Dahej industrial area

lies within 50 km of the Dedicated Freight Corridor in southern Gujarat.

The State government identified 82 links in the DMIC (which includes

Bharuch also) Influenced area to upgrade them into four lane carriageway

offering connectivity between ports, industrial estates, hinterlands, markets

and points of agricultural produce.

The Dahej Port operated by Gujarat Maritime Board (GMB), has made

significant contribution to facilitate industrial growth in the district. The

anchorage is at a distance of 5 km from the old port and 6 km from a

proposed container terminal site in Jageshwar, Bharuch.

M/s. ABG Shipyard is developing Ship Building Yard at Jageshwar site.

The first LNG terminal of the country is developed at Dahej by M/s. Petro

net LNG Ltd.

Spread over 5,000 hectares of land and with excellent access to entire North

West Indian hinterland, Dahej is strategically located at a distance of around

400 km north of Mumbai.

The port has cargo handling capacity of around 22 MMTPA. More than INR

7,000 million (USD 171 million) has been invested in its development.

The presence of existing industrial estates such as Bharuch, Ankleshwar and

Panoli has enhanced the location attractiveness of the region.

Commodities handled by the port for import include fertilizers, rock

phosphate naphtha, ammonia, coal & coke, propylene, ethylene, copper

concentrate, methanol, profane and coconut oil, while the commodities for

export include phosphoric acid and soya beans

4.23.3 Availability of Minerals

sand is being produced in the district. There are several mineral based industries

in Bharuch district. The crushing units are developed in Jhagadia & Valia talukas.

The Bricks manufacturing units are in Ankleshwar, Bharuch, Amod & Jambusar

Talukas. The Government of Gujarat has envisaged specific policy initiatives to

attract investment in mineral exploration and mineral based industries. The policy

184

incorporates steps to increase mineral production and encourage exports of value

added minerals. It pays special attention to rare occurring mineral such “Agate”

which is available only in Bharuch district in India.

Year Established : 1962 ; No. Of Employees – 150

Established in 1960 by setting up a plant in Lonavala in collaboration with

Steyr Diamler Puch, Austria, ABC Bearings which was previosly known as

Antifriction. Currently it is having three plants two in Gujarat and one in

Maharashtra. The plant manufactures ball thrust, taper and cylindrical roller

bearings. The Lonavala plant was plagued by frequent labour troubles, thereby

increasing the work load on the Bharuch plant. Expansions undertaken by the

company have boosted its bottom line. In 1990-91, it expanded the capacity of its

plant at Lonavala from 1.7 mln to 3 mln bearings. The expansion was part-

financed by term loans and internal accruals. During 1997-98, the company has

entered into a long term licensing and technical assistance agreement for Ball and

Tapered Roller Bearing with NSK Ltd, Japan to upgrade its manufacture process

and Improve quality of the product. The plants continue to enjoy the ISO 9001

and QS 9000 certification. The company offered equity shares on rights basis to

the existing shareholders at par in the ratio 1:1, which was fully subscribed and

paid-up capital after the issue increased to Rs. 1155.00 lacs. As the company

incurs heavy losses in the Ball Bearing Division the Management has decided to

exit from this business and concentrate more on its core business of

manufacturing and marketing of Roller Bearings. The company has absorbed

Technology assistance from Japan and their experts visited the plant to guide the

engineering staff and implementation of various technological improvements in

the field of Manufacturing, Quality Assurance and Management etc.

4.29 Summing Up

To sum up this, the technological aspect and their use in libraries of

engineering corporate sectors has been observed across the study. In the process

the following to aspects have been found to be relevant taking into the

consideration the present status and future need.

Implementation of Latest Technologies in Libraries in Corporate Sectors.

The industries that are covered for the present study almost have their own

libraries , they are either attached to the R & D or H R Depts., They use the latest

I CT technologies as and when they are needed and they are changed from time

to time. For example Birla Copper library provides access to E-journal. CD -

ROMs, E-databases, E- books, E-libraries, Virtual libraries, On- line libraries. Etc,

The latest advancements like Social Media such as Face book, Twitter, I P

messengers for transferring the bigger files from office to office within the

company are used. The technologies like RFID, Bar code systems are also in use

in some of the libraries (school, libraries attached to the companies). The On-line

library at BCKM is having On-line Library where in the relevant full text articles,

- E- books, E-Journals are being used through this, and the users are given the

Passwords to access these resources. The users at other location also can access

these resources as the library is connected to corporate office. The users are

regularly interacting with the library staff for their requirements through E-mail

247

facility given to them. The executives are using the latest technologies for

exemple I-PADs, Note pads for their technical and managerial information needs.

The best part of Birla Copper Library is the important articles, E-books, are being

served at their desk tops by E- library, Email so that they can instantly access and

use them.

Use of Different Technologies In Future

The present scenario is to use the available resources through the well

known formats like PDF, HTML, WORD DOCs. A time may come when the

present existing collection might not be retrieved for use because of the changes

of the technologies in future. Hence there is a need for making provision of the

expected changes in the technologies in the future in consultation with the

concerned technology experts for example, I T. The providers of existing

technologies may stop their services at any point of time. Therefore there is

always a scope for the alternative technologies so as to overcome the lacunas of

the present technologies. One such example is the PDF formats are used in saving

the docs in almost all documentation activity. There is a dire need of making

awareness of the users the next possible available technology. One such example

is Open office.org, Open sources where users can get their information and even

full text articles in other formats other than those of the so called PDF FORMAT (

ACROBAT READER)
