India is the largest sugar consumer and 1nd largest producer of sugar in the world. Indian
ugar !ompany has total turnover of $s. (66 billion per annum and contribution almost $s. 11.(
7illion to !entral Tax &uty every year.
The sugar company is second after the textile industry in India. Indian ugar !ompanyhas always focused for ocio'8conomic &evelopment. Indian ugar Industry generates power
for its own re9uirement and get surplus power for export. The sugar companies have been
established in large sugarcane growing states like :ttar Pradesh, %aharashtra, /arnataka,

Histor( o+ the Indian Su,ar Co'pan($
ugar is made from sugarcane, and was discovered thousands of years ago in The The planning for industrial development began and government targets of sugar
production and consumption.
The ugar industry covers around ).(@ of total rural population and provides
employment to ( lakh rural people. About +.( crore farmers are engaged in sugarcane cultivation
in India. ugar mills have been instrumental in initiating a number of entrepreneurial activities in
rural India.
Indian sugar industry can be a global leader provided it comes out of the vicious of
shortage and surplus of sugarcane, lower sugarcane yield, lower sugarcane recovery, ever
increasing production cost. It needs 9uality management at all levels of activity to enhance
productivity and production.

Current Position o+ the Indian Su,ar Co'pan($
Indian sugar production for the 16*1'* ugar season was *.= million tones which washigher by 6@ over the previous year. The production in %aharastra and /arnataka recorded
significant increase of over (6@. 2hile :ttar Pradesh recorded an increase of 1)@. 5ther sugar
producing states including Tamilnadu and Andhra Pradesh recorded a decline in production by
almost 16@. The overall increase in production has been primarily on account of favorable
climate conditions and lower diversion of cane in :ttar Pradesh for alternate sweeteners in the
1nd half of the crushing cycle.
India is the largest sugar consuming country in the world. The initial estimates of lower
production in India for 16*1'* and physical sugar imported by it resulted in rising global sugar
prices.
The sugar prices internationally, after showing a steep decline from the peak in Ban 16*6.
tarted going up from Buly 16*6 onwards on account of lower estimates of global sugar
production.
5n account of the above factors, sugar prices further moved up globally in 5ctober and

7agasse is the byproduct left behind after crushing of sugar cane. It is used as a fuel in
the sugar boilers. 8xcess 7agasse finds use as a raw material in paper manufacture.
%o)asses$
%olasses is a byproduct of sugar refining chiefly used for alcohol production the entire
molasses output is routed to the distillery unit and acetic acid plant.
Press %ud
Press mud is the byproduct generated by cane juice filtration during sugar manufacture
currently press mud is used as fertili-er in sugarcane cultivation. &istillery effluents are mixed
with press mud that comes from sugar factory to make bio'fertili-ers a substitute for chemical
fertili-er.
Cull exploitation of these potentials would besides would besides significantlycontributing to the energy of the country and there by immensely benefiting sugar cane formers.

The international scenario of sugar is highly favorable for another + to ( years. This is an
account of the following reasons.
The 2.T.5 has banned the dumping of & grade sugar to the world %arket.
The perroleum industries are in need of ethanol for blending with the petrol hence the
sugar factories are diverting to ethanol manufacturing gradually.
5n amount of the above reason the availability of the sugar in the international market
has been reduced substantially.

international level is soaring up.
This trend is giving to be contined for another + to ( years. As short term expectation.

There is a scope for improvement of 9uality and brand image as there is a huge
competition in the market.
CONC&USION$
It was an exciting experience to work at P/ 0imited. Crom this project I explored to
the organi-ation operations.
P/ 0imited is a reputed organi-ation which has developed its good will in the market
to compete with other factories. It has to adapt modern technology in its production
process and can do more export of sugar and molasses to the market.
P/ 0imited is functioning well for the social as well as economical up' liftman of the
rural population.
To survive in the market the company needs to adapt an aggressive marketing policy as
of competitors.
0ast but not least I would like to conclude P/ 0imited as a good organi-ation to work
as well as good interactions with the people. All the labors, shift workmen3s and other
members of the factory have given straight and proper information with the warm
motivations.
