HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT

Chandubhai and his brothers Bhikhubhai and Kanubhai migrated from a small
Village Dhun Dhoraji, Kalavad Taluka, Jamnagar district of Gujarat. Their
father Popatbhai Virani was a farmer, who sold ancestral agriculture land and
gave ₹20,000 (US$280) to them to venture into business

The Viranis invested in farm equipment, but could not succeed and lost money.
Kakubhai and his brothers started a wafer business from a canteen of a cinema
hall in Rajkot in 1974. Until 1989, the wafers were produced at the Viranis’
house and distributed in and around Rajkot city.

By their retail success, they were inspired to set a semi-automatic plant instead
of preparing wafers by the traditional frying method. The product gradually
reached every part of Gujarat, and the Viranis wanted to take over the whole of
western India, so the biggest automatic plant of Gujarat came into the picture.

In the initial stage, Balaji Wafers set up their plant at Aji Vasad (Industrial
Zone, Rajkot) with a new concept of making potato chips. The main benefit
they got is the readymade infrastructure availability due to which their cost was
reduced to a large extent. They operated there for around 22 years.
Balaji Wafers then set up their new fully automatic plant near Metoda G.I.D.C.
which is in the area of the village Vajdi, outside the town of Rajkot.

Balaji Wafers had a growth in the chips sector in the 2007-2016 decade,
outwitting the marks of major players like Lays’, Kurkure, Parle, and Bingo.
The company aims at a similar market grab in the frozen foods and fries sector
dominated by McCain Foods, by launching a new line of products under the
Iscon-Balaji Foods brand.

PRESENT MANAGING BODYAND
PROMOTERS :

I never dreamed we would be this successful: ChandubhaiVirani

Chandubhai Virani

Chandubhai virani is Founder and Managing Director, Balaji Wafers

Balaji, in Hinduism, represents the vigraha Hanumanji (or Bajrangbali). One


might wonder why Co-Founder and Managing Director Chandubhai Virani
picked the name for one of India’s most successful snack companies, Balaji
Wafers.

For the answer, you’d have to go back to the 1970s, when Chandubhai moved
from a small village in rural Gujarat to Rajkot, the state’s fourth-largest city.

Once he’d settled in Rajkot, Chandubhai set to entrepreneurship quickly


alongside his two brothers and co-founders Bhikhubhai and Kanubhai, using the
INR20,000 their father gave them, after drought had forced him to sell their
land.

The Balaji Wafers Pvt. Ltd. Is one and only on company, which produces
many types of food items and they are also famous for their purity and
registered purpose. The company is unique in comparison of their companies
that are producing food items.

The companies food products like potato wafers, Banana wafers and
other salty products are prepared in its fully automatic plant with bacteria-free
and stringent hygienic standards. The use of computer system ensures uniform
quality and obviates the necessity for touch of human hands.
The production environment makes it possible to make the products less
lily and more nutritive.

The main benefit they got is the readymade infrastructure availability due to
which their cost was reduced to a large extent. They operated there for around
22 years.

Balaji Wafers then set up their new fully automatic plant near Metoda G.I.D.C.

• Economic time recognized balaji group as sultan of wafers

• International magazine i. e. Asia Pacific food online published a special


article with ‘chip off the old block’

• Balaji group of is also a member of snacks food association.

Till 1989, wafers used to be made at Virani’s house and distributed in and
around Rajkot city. By the overwhelming retail success they inspired to set a
semi automatic plant. Instead of preparing wafers by the traditional frying
method this semi automatic plant boosted the quality, taste and more sales also.
The fame of taste reached to the whole Gujarat hence it was time to take over
the whole Gujarat so the biggest automatic plant of Gujarat came into the
picture.

ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE

Organization structure is a basic frame work of companymanagement. It is the


pattern in which various parts of the company areinterconnected.

In BALAJI WAFERS PVT LTD. There is a line type of organization in which


responsibility flow upward and authorities flowdownward and upward.

The following is the organizational structure of BALAJI WAFERS PRIVATE


LIMITED.
LOCATION CHART
Some of the factors which affect the industrial location are as follows:

1. Availability of raw materials


2. Availability of labour
3. Availability of capital
4. Availability of power
5. Availability of market
6. Infrastructure

Sometimes, industries are located in or near cities. Cities provide markets and
also provide services like banking, insurance, transport, labour, consultants, etc.
Many industries tend to come together to make use of the advantages of an
urban centre. Such centre is then called as agglomeration economy.

In the pre-independence period, most of the manufacturing units were located in


places which were near the ports, e.g. Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, etc. As a
result, these belts developed as industrial urban centres surrounded by huge
agricultural rural hinterland.

Site selection is an important activity which decides the fateof the business. A
good location may, reduce the cost of production anddistribution to a
considerable extent. The reduction of cost of productionand distribution helps in
elevating either the competitive strength or theprofit margin of the business.

Therefore, the location for the factory should be selectedvery carefully. While
selecting a site, it is necessary to consider technical,commercial, and financial
and then the location is selected which may provide maximum advantages.

So, looking to all these factors BALAJI WAFERS PVT.LTD.(S) Ltd. Has
established the plant in an industrial estate-BALAJI WAFERS PVT. LTD. Had
chosen this locationtaking into consideration following factors:-

1. Supply of Raw Material


2. Nearness of Market.
3. Transportation Facilities.
4. Labour Supply.
5. Availability of Power & Natural resources.
6. Government Facilities.
7. Personal Factors.
8. Social Factors.

FACTORS AFFECTING LOCATION OF
UNIT :
The factors influencing the location of industry can be divided into two broad
categories i.e.

(1) Geographical factors


(2) Non-geographical factors.

I. Geographical Factors:

Following are the important geographical factors influencing the location of


industries.

(1) Raw Materials:

The significance of raw materials in manufacturing industry is so fundamental


that it needs no emphasising. Indeed, the location of industrial enterprises is
sometimes determined simply by location of the raw materials. Modem industry
is so complex that a wide range of raw materials is necessary for its growth.

It is true in the case of raw materials which lose weight in the process of
manufacture or which cannot bear high transport cost or cannot be transported
over long distances because of their perishable nature. This has been recognised
since 1909 when Alfred Weber published his theory of location of industry.

(2) Power:

Regular supply of power is a pre-requisite for the localisation of industries.


Coal, mineral oil and hydro-electricity are the three important conventional
sources of power. Most of the industries tend to concentrate at the source of
power.

Thus, more than all other factors affecting the location of large and heavy
industries, quite often they are established at a point which has the best
economic advantage in obtaining power and raw materials.
(3) Labour :

In our country, modem industry still requires a large number of workers in spite
of increasing mechanisation. There is no problem in securing unskilled labour
by locating such industries in large urban centres. Although, the location of any
industrial unit is determined after a careful balancing of all relevant factors, yet
the light consumer goods and agro-based industries generally require a plentiful
of labour supply.

(4) Transport:

Transport by land or water is necessary for the assembly of raw materials and
for the marketing of the finished products. The development of railways in
India, connecting the port towns with hinterland determined the location of
many industries around Kolkata, Mumbai and Chennai. As industrial
development also furthers the improvement of transport facilities, it is difficult
to estimate how much a particular industry owes to original transport facilities
available in a particular area.

(5) Market :

The entire process of manufacturing is useless until the finished goods reach the
market. Nearness to market is essential for quick disposal of manufactured
goods. It helps in reducing the transport cost and enables the consumer to get
things at cheaper rates.

It is becoming more and more true that industries are seeking locations as near
as possible to their markets; it has been remarked that market attractions are
now so great that a market location is being increasingly regarded as the normal
one, and that a location elsewhere needs very strong justification.

(6) Water :

Water is another important require-ment for industries. Many industries are


established near rivers, canals and lakes, because of this reason. Iron and steel
industry, textile industries and chemical industries require large quantities of
water, for their proper functioning.

Significance of water in industry is evident from Table 27.3. Also it requires


36,400 litres of water to produce one kwh of thermal electricity.Further, it is
worth noting that water used in industries gets polluted and is therefore not
available for any other purpose.

II. Non-Geographical Factors:

Now-a-days alternative raw materials are also being used because of modern
scientific and technological developments. Availability of electric power supply
over wider areas and the increasing mobility of labour have reduced the
influence of geographical factors on the location of industries.
(1) Capital:

Modem industries are capital-intensive and require huge investments.


Capitalists are available in urban centres. Big cities like Mumbai, Kolkata,
Delhi, and Chennai are big industrial centres, because the big capitalists live in
these cities.

(2) Government Policies:

Government activity in planning the future distribution of industries, for


reducing regional disparities, elimination of pollution of air and water and for
avoiding their heavy clustering in big cities, has become no less an important
locational factor.
There is an increasing trend to set up all types of industries in an area, where
they derive common advantage of water and power and supply to each other the
products they turn out. The latest example in our country is the establishment of
a large number of industrial estates all over India even in the small-scale
industrial sector.

(3) Industrial Inertia:

Industries tend to develop at the place of their original establishment, though


the original cause may have disappeared. This phenomenon is referred to as
inertia, sometimes as geographical inertia and sometimes industrial inertia. The
lock industry at Aligarh is such an example.

(4) Efficient Organization :

Efficient and enterprising organisation and management is essential for running


modem industry successfully. Bad management sometimes squanders away the
capital and puts the industry in financial trouble leading to industrial ruin.
Bad management does not handle the labour force efficiently and tactfully,
resulting in labour unrest. It is detrimental to the interest of the industry. Strikes
and lock-outs lead to the closure of industries. Hence, there is an imperative
need of effective management and organisation to run the industries.

(5) Banking Facilities:

Establishment of industries involves daily exchange of crores of rupees which is


possible through banking facilities only. So the areas with better banking
facilities are better suited to the establishment of industries.

(6) Insurance:

There is a constant fear of damage to machine and man in industries for which
insurance facilities are badly needed.
The major factors are affecting Balaji Wafers Pvt. Ltd. Are as follow:

• Availabilities of Raw materials


• Cheap Labour
• Quick Transportation
• Electricity Supply
• Nearness to Market
• Suitable Climate

Availabilities of Raw materials :-

Balaji Wafers one of the topmost potato wafers producing in Gujarat. They are
producing more than thirteen items for these they require raw materials in big
quantity. Raw materials are used by Balaji Wafers Pvt. Ltd. As follow :
Potato, Banana, Magdal, Chanadal, Besan powder, Black paper, Edible Oil etc.
The company gets all these raw materials easily.

Cheap Labour :-

Labour are the main element of production. If the labours are efficient then
production would be of better quality and quantity most of the industries are
getting local. As this place is totally industrial estate and this is the main reason
the company getting the best skilled labours. The company is having 75 to 100
percent of female workers.

Quick Transportation :-

As the area is covered by other industries which are situated on highways that is
far from city and because of that there is no problem of transportation. The
company is also having its own transportation named Kataria Transportation,
which is owned by them and helpful in delivering the products.

Electricity Supply :-

Due to the area is having so many types of industries the government is ready to
provides 24 hour electric power. It will be highly beneficial for company that it
can carry their activities without any types of hurdles.

Nearness to Markets :-

The vital part for industry is its market. So therefore unit must be at that point
from where company can easily supply good to sale agents or distributors or
retailers. In this case Balaji Wafers has an advantages because it has its market
only in Gujarat state.
Suitable Climate :-

As Rajkot is situated in middle of Gujarat, the main city of Saurashtra, which is


having best climate around the whole year also favourable to the products which
are produced by the company.
Due to these above quoted advantages of the company is able to produce the
product at a reasonable cost. This is one of the reason for the great demand of
product.
Contribution of the unit (In industry and
economy) :
Contribution of Industry to National Economy

The share of manufacturing sector in the GDP (Gross Domestic Product) has
been stagnant at 17% over the last two decades. The total contribution of
industry to the GDP is 27% out of which 10% comes from mining, quarrying,
electricity and gas.

The growth of the manufacturing sector had been 7% in the last decade. Since
2003, the growth rate has been 9 to 10% per annum. The desired growth rate
over the next decade is 12%.

The National Manufacturing Competitiveness Council (NMCC) has been set


with the objectives of improving productivity through proper policy
interventions by the government and renewed efforts by the industry.

PRODUCTION PROCESS
The operations function essentially is a transformation process that accepts the
inputs, and gives the outputs after adding value to the inputs. The
transformation process is expected to generate an output. The transformation
process is expected to generate an output described by market and this it should
do in the most efficient way. Production process has to adopt itself to number of
changing factors like capacity, lead-time, flexible trade-offs between material,
labour and capital, trade-offs between volume and variety, etc. we cannot have
the best process, it could only be the most acceptable process, given the
different trade-offs.

In BALAJI WAFERS PVT. LTD., production process is awell – planned


process. In contains all that important stages, which is required to make a
product well, accepted in the market. The well – planned production process of
BALAJIWAFERS PVT. LTD. Is as follows:-

• The first of production process begins on receiving the order from the
dealer.

• Potatoes are placed on electric channel and washed properly.

• After washing, they are brought for pilling purpose to the peeling
machine.

• Once they are washed and finely peeled they are passed through a belt
where labours remove off the spoiled potatoes.

• After washing and peeling, they sent for cutting. There are different
shapes in cutting machine; these shapes are arranged according to the
need.

• After washing, they are again sent for washing and after that for frying
purpose.

• Once frying gets over again inspection is done to remove the broken
pieces of wafers.

• Once this process endsChips are placed in Spicer drum and necessary
spices are added to it. And than at last they are packed and dispatched.
INSTALLED AND
UTILIZATIONCAPACITY

A Fully automatic plant worth Rs. 80 lacs of wood tap aria ltd.. Indore and one
packing machine of Woodmal Company of US valued Rs. 60 lacs has been
installed with production capacity of 4500kgs per hour.

Average manufacturing per day is 1800 kgs. The manufacturing of wafers and
namkeens is little high in the winter and in monsoon season i.e. in the month of
august due to festivals production goes to maximum possible level. This
industry covers about 90% of the market share in the wafers and about 70% in
the namkeens.

As this is a fully automatic plant, all the process like cutting of potatoes,
wasginhg, peeling, steaming and frying are done automatically. This machine
being Automatic consumes electricity and sometimes they use diesel for
running boiler.

Repairs and maintenance is very essential part of the production management.


As entire scenario of the production is depended on the machines and plants one
has to make sure that They are well maintained.
HUMAN RESOURCES REQUIREMENTS
AND TURN OVER RATIO :
Arequirement is a capability or condition that must be present to satisfy a
specification or a need. Human resource requirements concern the specific
capabilities or attributes needed by the people who perform the work of the
project.

For example, on a custom software development project, having at least one


person with the ability to develop software is a human resource requirement.
The ability to develop software is the skill that’s required to complete the work
of the project.

It might also be a human resource requirement to have someone on the project


team with a specific certification. Consider a construction project where certain
work activities must be performed by a certified electrician. The human
resources requirements of a legal project might involve someone with both a
degree and a license. Another requirement might concern their availability.

Who Creates the Human Resource Requirements List?

The project manager creates the human resource requirements list. He or she
will also seek input from the project team members.

What Are the Inputs?

Inputs to the creating the human resource requirements document include the
activity list, the wbs dictionary, the human resource management plan,
enterprise environmental factors and organizational process assets.

How Is It Used?

Before you can determine how the resource requirements will be met, you must
determine what they are. That’s the purpose of this human resource
requirements document. It captures the WBS identifier, the activity name and
the responsibility. Next, there’s a place for documenting the skills, degree or
certification needed to complete the activity. It also includes a place to
document the start date, end date and over all duration of the work.
If We look at the world management it can be divided into “MANAGE-MEN-
T’. If the word ‘tactfully’ substituted for ‘T’ then the word management would
read “MANAGE-MEN –TACTFULLY”. Thus the word itself suggest the most
important aspect of management, namely, of managing men and human beings
in a particular manner ,namely , tactfully,.

Although in one sense every one in an organization is concerned with the


personnel function, in case of larger organization a special dept. is segregated to
help the line management to secure the optimum use of personnel dept.
performing an advisory or a staff function. The personnel department helps
management in securing, using, and development.

NO. OF EMPLOYEES:

However, the big the organization may be but its employees are its real strength.
Employees are one of the important resources of any organisation. The no. of
employees matters a lot in the performance of the organisation. The number of
employees should be proportionate to the size of the organisation. Any increase
or decrease in the number of employees would cause a problem in the
fu8ctioning of the organisation. IN BALAJI WAFERS PVT. LTD. The number

Turn over ratio :

The amount of money taken by a business in a particular period.

In the context of human resources, turnover is the act of replacing an employee


with a new employee. Partings between organizations and employees may
consist of termination, retirement, death, interagency transfers, and resignations.

An organization’s turnover is measured as a percentage rate, which is referred


to as its turnover rate. Turnover rate is the percentage of employees in a
workforce that leave during a certain period of time. Organizations and
industries as a whole measure their turnover rate during a fiscal or calendar
year.
HOW TO CALCULATE THE TURN OVER RATIO OF COMPANY :

The formula for calculating your turnover rate over a given period of time only
requires three pieces of information: the number of employees on the first day;
the number of employees on the last day; and the total number of employee
separations that occurred during that time frame.

The two headcount totals are used to determine the average number of
employees. From there, simply divide the total number of employee separations
by the average number of employees during that period of time. It sounds
complicated, but the process is relatively straightforward. Make it even easier
on yourself and use our free calculator to seamlessly calculate your turnover
rate.

Time keeping system:
What is time keeping :

If you are meeting your daily goals for performance and productivity and
bringing about a consistent increase in the regular production, it means that your
workforce is performing their respective jobs to their utmost potential and is
making an optimum use of their work hours.

Timekeeping is the process of tracking and reporting work and leave time.
Everyone is responsible for accurate timekeeping:

Employees report leave and approve their time on their timecards


Supervisors review and approve their employees’ timecards
Timekeepers sign off on their units’ timecards

Time is a crucial factor that influences and determines the success or failure of a
business.

Efficient time management is an essential responsibility on a manager’s part to


ensure that the day’ goals for work and performance are achieved within the
specified work hour bracket.

For this, the organizations need to have a seamless, accurate and efficient
timekeeping system.

An Organisation must decide its working hours and shifts very carefully
because it has a direct effect on the performance of the employees. The working
hours should not be more which would be very stressful for employees. There
should be free time after appropriate intervals which would release the stress of
the employees.

Same things apply in the decision for fixing of shifts. Shifts should be decided
in such a way that the organisation should be able to rotate it’s employees to use
this efficiency fully.

The performance, success, and growth of your business organization primarily


depend on how your employees make use of their working hours on a regular
basis.
In BALAJI WAFERS PVT. LTD. The is perfect balance between working
hours and shifts.

agencies (including campus placement offices and executive search firms),

MARKET SEGMENTATION :

homogenous in full significant aspects.
-Philip Kotlar
Market segmentation is method for achieving for achievingMaximummarket
response from limited marketing resources byRecognizing differences in the
response characteristics of various parts ofThemarket. In a sense, market
segmentation is the strategy of ‘divideAnd conquer’ i.e. dividing market in
order to conquer them.

and potential customers, into sub-groups of consumers (known as segments)

Promotion activities

A business person has to keep on thinking almost all the time. He has to think
not only about the profit and loss of his business but also about expanding the
business. Businesses have to keep on growing in order to stay in competition for
a long time. The growth is only possible when a business is getting more return
for its efforts than the amounts it is spending. When a business in running
condition it is easy to do analysis on what’s working for it and what’s not
working. With this data you can create new promotions.
The promotion of an employee from one job position to another job position
that has a higher salary range, a higher level job title, and, often, more and
higher-level job responsibilities in an organization, is called a promotion.
Sometimes a promotion results in an employee taking on responsibility for
managing or overseeing the work of other employees. Decision-making
authority tends to rise with promotion as well.

Why Are Promotions Important?

The most important purpose that a promotion serves is that it sets a business
apart from its competitors. No business will ever need to run any promotions if
there wasn’t any competition. You have to stay ahead of your competitors in
order for customers to keep doing business with you. If there is a company that
sells similar products or services to yours, you can only make customers buy
from you if you have a special promotion going on. Of course, it is also equally
important to spread the word about promotion to the people by using several
advertising and marketing methods.

Businesses often have to bundle their products together in order to run a


promotion. What they usually do is that they include a less popular item with a
very popular item. This not only helps them sell their popular item more but
also allows them to cross sell an item that customers have not given much
attention to. If the bundled product is liked by customers, the business will then
have 2 popular products. The sales will increase as a result and with a
successful promotion like this the business will get more return on its
investment.

Promotion is generally meant the assignment of a position of Higher


responsibility to an individual. Promotion can be used as a Recruitment source
for higher positions. This would encourage the existing Employee, providing
them with motivation and the same time opening a Source of recruitment at the
lower end of the hierarchy foroutsiders.

In BALAJI WAFERS PVT. LTD. The employees are given Promotionon the
basis of performance and skills.

• Promotion of the employees is based on their performance And


skills. At these time company refers the entire portfolio of the Employee,
during his stay with the company and accordingly decides Promotion and
transfers.
