    Chapter 1

    Introduction

    Handloom Cooperatives in India

    The growth of these cooperative institutions in the last two decades is indeed

    phenomenal and today the weavers cooperatives form the largest group of industrial

    cooperatives in India. Employing on the handloom more number of people than the

    mass of workers employed in the organized industries in our country.

    In India the cooperatives have come to play a significant role in the handloom

    industry. The primary societies take the role of master weavers. But the profits are

    shared by the members of the society. The coopertivisation of handlooms has been

    one of the major. Through of the government in

    The last few decades so that the handloom weaving could be brought into an

    organized form of production. To encourage more private to be brought under the

    cooperative fold. The government have been extending credit facilities to the weaver

    cooperatives societies for enlisting more members.

    These weavers cooperative societies exist in rural and semi urban areas

    where there is heavy concentration of handloom weavers. All the developmental and

    welfare schemes of the state government indented for the handloom weavers are being

    channelised through these primary weavers cooperative societies alone.

    The Handloom sector plays a very important role in the countrys economy. It

    is one of the largest economic activity providing direct employment to over 65 lakhs

    persons engaged in weaving and allied activities. Due to effective Government

    intervention through financial assistance and implementation of various

    developmental and welfare schemes, this sector has been able to withstand

    competition from the power loom and mill sectors. As a result of these measures,

    the production of handloom fabrics registered more than ten fold increase from a

    level of 500 million sq. meters in the early fifties to 7352 million sq. meters in

    1999-2000. This sector constitutes nearly 19 per cent of the total cloth produced in

    the country and also contributes substantially to the export earnings. Handloom

    forms a part of the heritage of India and exemplifies the richness and diversity of

    our country and the artistry of the weavers.

    The Office of the Development Commissioner for Handlooms has been

    implementing since its inception in the year 1976, various schemes for the

    promotion and development of the handloom sector and providing assistance to the

    handloom weavers in a variety of ways.

    Some of the major programmes formulated by this office relate to:

    a) Employment Generation Programmeb) Modernization and Up gradation of Technology

    c) Input Support

    d) Marketing Support

    e) Publicity

    f) Infrastructural Support

    g) Welfare Measures

    h) Composite Growth Oriented Package

    i) Development of Exportable Products

    j) Research & Development

    All these measures aim at meeting the objectives enshrined in the Directives

    Principles of State Policy for the growth of decentralized handloom sector. All the

    schemes are weaver oriented. Concerted efforts are being made through the schemes

    and programmed to enhance productivity, income and socio-economic status of

    weavers by upgrading their skills and providing essential inputs.44 handloom

    showrooms are selling products.

    Over the centuries handlooms have come to be associated with excellence in

    India's artistry in fabrics. Right from the ancient times, the high quality of Indianhandloom products like muslin of Chanderi, silk brocades of Varanasi, the tie and dye

    products of Rajasthan and Orissa, the Chintas of Machhlipatnam, the himroos of

    Hyderabad, the Khes of Punjab, the prints of Farrukhabad, the Phenek and Tongam

    and bottle designs of Assam and Manipur, the Maheshwari sarees of Madhya Pradesh

    and the Patola sarees of Baroda have been famous all over.

    The art and craft traditions since almost the dawn of civilization has been kept

    alive despite sweeping changes due to continuous efforts of generations of artists and

    craftsmen who weaved their dreams and visions into exquisite handloom products.

    The handloom industry now provides livelihood to over 90 million people in

    the country. It continues to be craft-oriented, even though it was circumscribed by a

    limited choice of processing and technology. During the first half of the present

    century there was very little effort to develop the handloom sector and the handloom

    weavers were pitted against modern textile mills. They struggled to survive not only

    against the unfair competition but also against the unscrupulous middlemen who did

    everything to ensure that the weavers remained in perpetual debt trap. It is a tribute to

    their ingenuity and skill that they succeeded in preserving the long tradition of

    excellence in hand-weaving, dyeing, in-printing and craftsmanship.

    Advantages

    The Deemed Exporter supplies the yarn in the quality the buyer wants it.

    This saves the weavers from investing in purchasing of yarn or for the cooperative to

    get cash credit from DCCB to purchase yarn. This is an ideal business proposition for

    PWCS that have lost CC facility with the DCCBs. The society does not require

    working capital for

    Purchasing yarn.

    The Deemed Exporter decides which items are to be produced. The

    weaverneednotworry about what the market demands. He can be contended if he

    could weave and supply the items demanded by the Deemed Exporter. There is no

    incidence of Deemed Exporters delaying payment to the weavers. They seem to be

    sending Demand Draft within a fortnights time. There is no problem of marketing

    because the Deemed Exporter procures the entire lot he placed order for. The wages

    paid are also comparatively better, although it is on a declining trend over the Years.

    Handloom forms a part of the heritage of Tamil Nadu and exemplifies the

    richness and diversity of the State. Taking into account the present status of handloom

    industry in Tamil Nadu, an attempt is made to analyze the problems and prospects of

    this traditional industry by using SWOT Analysis.

    Strengths

    Its rural base, low capital investment and employment intensive nature of

    production not only help in providing livelihood to large number of people in the rural

    non-farm sector but also strengthen its survival in the age of computerized weaving

    technology.

    It is eco-friendly in nature and inflicts no harm to health. It prevents distress

    migration of rural artisans to the cities by providing work in the village itself. It

    provides productive employment to the women, old and destitute in their households

    (in the preparatory work) and thus serves an important social purpose, at virtually no

    cost to the government.

    Problems

    The inherent weakness of handloom industry is low productivity. The sector is weak and need protection from the government by giving Rebate/concessions periodically during the festive seasons. It is relatively higher wage component of handloom products as compared to

    the

    Power loom products which affects their commercial viability. It grapples with problems like non-availability of good quality yarn, low

    technology, lack of market intelligence and poor marketing facilities.

    Another important weakness of the handloom industry is related to poorcapacity of the weavers to switch over to new products and designs according

    to consumers tastes and Preferences on the short notice in comparison with

    power loom products.

    Hand loom cooperatives are gross root level cooperatives involved in

    production and marketing of handloom cloths. Naturally this organization have to

    financial management in good level once the financial management is good in

    financial performance it also good in financial is associated in purchase of materials

    and introduction activities on marketing activities. If the weavers cooperatives are

    financially good and performance wise some they will objectives properly. Financial

    performance therefore is an indicates of the health sites of the organization. Financial

    performance can be assessed through ratios. The ratios like liquidity, solvency,

    activity and profitability are very, much useful to measure the performance of the

    weavers cooperatives. The researchers being the students of the cooperatives

    including of financial performance of weavers cooperatives in Chinnala patty. Hence

    the piece of study.

    Chapter 3

    Analysis and Discussion

    This chapter makes on attempt in analyzing the financial performance of thestudy units. The financial performance of each weavers society was analyzed through

    major ratios namely (i) liquidity ratio, (ii) solvency, (iii) activity, (iv) profitability.

    1) LIQUIDITY RATIOS

    Liquidity refers to the ability of a concern to meet its current obligations as

    and when these become due. The short-term obligations are met by realizing amounts

    from current, floating or circulating assets. The current assets either be liquid or near

    liquidity. These should be convertible into cash for paying obligation of short-term

    nature.

    a) CURRENT RATIO

    Current ratio may be defined as the relationship between current assets and

    current liabilities. This ratio, also known as working capital ratio, is a measure of

    general liquidity and is most widely used to make the analysis of a short-term

    financial position or liquidity of a firm.

    Current Assets

    Current Ratio =

    Current Liabilities

    The two basic components of this ratio are: Current assets and current

    liabilities. Current assets include cash and those assets which can be easily converted

    into cash within a short period of time generally, one year. Current liabilities are

    those obligation which are payable within a short period of generally one year.

    b) QUICK or LIQUID RATIO

    Quick Ratio, known as Liquid Ratio, is a more rigorous test of liquidity than

    Table 2

    Quick Ratio

    It is clear from the table that the Namnadu society goes in first place with 3.06

    followed by silambu (1.59). The societies namely Anna, Kamala maintained quick

    ratio at below one. It means that the quick assets are less than the current liabilities.

    The quick ratio was very high at 6.38 with Namnadu society in (2006-07) and the lowratio was witnessed in case of Anna society at 0.02 in (1999-00).

    The reason for high quick ratio incase of Namnadu was because of the

    maintenance of high current assets, wherein case of Anna society the low level was

    attributed because of low quick assets.

    2. a) Solvency Ratio

    This ratio a small variant of equity ratio and can be simply calculated as

    100 equity ratio, i.e., continuing the example taken for the equity ratio, solvency ratio

    = 100.-66.67 or say 33.33%. The ratio indicates the relationship between the total

    liabilities to outsiders to total assets of a firm and can be calculated as follows:

    Total liabilities

    Solvency ratio=

    Total assets

    Generally, lower the ratio of total liabilities to total assets, more

    satisfactory or stable is the long-term solvency position of a firm.

    Table 3

    Solvency Ratio

    It is clear from the table 7 that almost all the weavers cooperatives societies

    were in solvent position. That is they are capable of settling their liabilities with the

    help of assets.

    DEBT EQUITY RATIO

    Debt-Equity Ratio, also known as External Internal Equity Ratio is

    calculated to measure the relative claims of outsiders and the owners (i.e.,

    shareholders) against the firms assets. This ratio indicates the relationship between

    the external equities or the outsiders funds and the internal equities or the

    shareholders funds, thus:

    The relationship between debt and equity is measured. Here debt includes loan

    from outside agencies, including DCCB, creditors include suppliers of yarn, NHDC

    and Cooptex. Equity denotes the members share capital and reserve fund. It signifies

    the debt borrowed by the weavers cooperatives based on the equity. It is found that

    Sanjay society and Gandhiji maintained the ratio of 4.5 times and 2.64 times

    respectively, representing 4.5 times of debt than equity. The societies like Anna,

    Kamala Nehru and Sanjay maintained this ratio at negative level indicating lower debt

    than equity. The weavers cooperatives borrowing pattern is different from other

    Inventory Turnover Ratio

    It is understood from the table that the societies namely Gandhiji, Sanjay and

    Kamala Nehru maintained Inventory Turnover Ratio at high level with 5.84, 4.21 and

    4.4 respectively. It means cost of goods sold is less than the average inventory cost.

    Other societies maintained below 4 times. It is felt that high turn over will lead

    efficiency in production. That is it facilitates high production. Inventory Turnover

    Ratio was maintained high at 12.86 time in case of Gandhiji society in (2005-06) and

    Sanjay Gandhi society with 10.75 times in (2006-07). The low level inventory

    turnover ratio at 0.33 in Gandhiji society (2001-02). High fluctuation is witnessed in

    The ratio of debtors turnover of the sample units has been discussed in the

    table 4. It was found that the Namnadu society and Anjugam society had maintained

    the ratio at high level with 4.78 and 4.26 times respectively. The reason for such high

    turnover was because of high showroom sales, participatory in emporium to push up

    sales. The high turnover ratio indicates capably of making higher sales which

    facilitates for profitability. On the other hand the lower ratio indicates the high

    dependency on the debtors, and in number of debtors do not settle for the society.

    The high debtor turnover was found maintaining in Namnadu society with 9.7 times

    in (1998-99) and Silambu with 9.4 (1999-00) times. The lowest level was maintained

    by the Anna society at 0.03 times in (2003-04).

    c) Fixed Assets to Proprietary Fund Ratio

    The ratio establishes the relationship between fixed assets and shareholders

    funds, i.e., share capital plus reserves, surplus and retained earnings. The ratio can be

    calculated as follows:

    Proprietary fund ratio is calculated to find out the proprietary fund ratio which

    was much lower than one (in fraction). So it indicates that the members share capital

    was very low. The reason is that the weaver members are already financially very

    poor. They cannot be expected to contribute much to the share capital.
