1. ECONOMIC SCENARIO OF INDIA

Overview Social democratic policies governed India's economy from 1947 to 1991. The economy was characterized by extensive regulation,

protectionism, public ownership, pervasive corruption and slow growth. Since 1991, continuing economic liberalization has moved the country towards a market-based economy. A revival of economic reforms and better economic policy in first decade of the 21st century accelerated India's economic growth rate. In recent years, Indian cities have continued to liberalize business regulations. By 2008, India had established itself as the world's second-fastest growing major economy. However, as a result of the financial crisis of 20072010, coupled with a poor monsoon, India's gross domestic product (GDP) growth rate significantly slowed to 6.7% in 200809, but subsequently recovered to 7.4% in 200910, while the fiscal deficit rose from 5.9% to a high 6.5% during the same period. Indias current account deficit surged to 4.1% of GDP during Q2 FY11 against 3.2% the previous quarter. The unemployment rate for 20092010, according to the state Labour Bureau, was 9.4% nationwide, rising to 10.1% in rural areas, where two-thirds of the 1.2 billion populations live. India's large service industry accounts for 57.2% of the country's GDP while the industrial and agricultural sectors contribute 28.6% and 14.6% respectively. Agriculture is the predominant occupation in India, accounting

for about 52% of employment. The service sector makes up a further 34%, and industrial sector around 14%. However, statistics from a 2009-10 government survey, which used a smaller sample size than earlier surveys, suggested that the share of agriculture in employment had dropped to 45.5%. Major industries include telecommunications, textiles, chemicals, food processing, steel, transportation equipment, cement, mining, petroleum, machinery, information technology-enabled services and pharmaceuticals. The labour force totals 500 million workers. Major agricultural products include rice, wheat, oilseed, cotton, jute, tea, sugarcane, potatoes, cattle, sheep, goats, poultry and fish. In 2009-2010, India's top five trading partners are United Arab Emirates, China, United States, Saudi Arabia and Germany. Previously a closed economy, India's trade and business sector has grown fast. India currently accounts for 1.5% of world trade as of 2007 according to the World Trade Statistics of the WTO in 2006, which valued India's total merchandise trade (counting exports and imports) at $294 billion and India's services trade at $143 billion. Thus, India's global economic engagement in 2006 covering both merchandise and services trade was of the order of $437 billion, up by a record 72% from a level of $253 billion in 2004. India's total trade in goods and services has reached a share of 43% of GDP in 200506, up from 16% in 199091. India's total merchandise trade (counting exports and imports) stands at $ 606.7 billion and is currently the 11th largest in the world. The overall growth of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) at factor cost at constant prices, as per Advance Estimates, was 8.6 per cent in 201011 representing an increase from the revised growth of 8.0 per cent during
Seshadripuram Institute of Management Studies

ORGANIZATION STUDY

2009-10, according to the Advance Estimate (AE) of Central Statistics Office (CSO). Overall growth in the Index of Industrial Production (IIP) was 3.6 per cent during February 2011. During April-February 2010-11, IIP growth was 7.8 per cent. The six core industries (comprising crude oil, petroleum refinery products, coal, electricity, cement and finished carbon steel) grew by 6.8 per cent in February 2011 as compared to the growth of 4.2 per cent in February 2010. During April-February 2010-11, these sectors grew by 5.7 per cent as compared to 5.4 per cent during April-February 2009-10. In addition, exports, in US dollar terms increased by 49.7 per cent and imports increased by 21.2 per cent, during February 2011. Indian economy is now attracting the attention of the people from all over the world. The financial condition of the country has shown significant development in the last few months and has become much stable these days. The Indian economic outlook 2011 also indicates that the financial condition of the country has become more stable in the recent years, yet inflation has been a significant problem. As per the reports, policy makers of the country have given a significant boost to the financial state of the country. They have brought development in the countrys financial state in exchange of the risks related to macro stability which resulted in the inflation. Inflation Rate in India According to the financial experts, the economic condition of the country has become stable and the GDP has also improved in the last few quarters. However, the high inflation rate has overshadowed the growth of the economy and that is the reason why many are considering that the economic condition of India is still unstable. As per the reports of Indian
Seshadripuram Institute of Management Studies 8

ORGANIZATION STUDY

inflation rate 2011, the non-food inflation has come down to 7 percent this year. It was around 11 percent previously. Reports indicate that inflation rate has become a major cause of concern these days among the common men of the country. It has also raised the eyebrows of investors, too. Rising Rate of Unemployment in India Financial experts have implemented different measures for bringing stability in the inflationary condition of the country. They have also designed programs for boosting the overall economy of the country. As per the reports, the Indian unemployment rate 2011 has also remained a cause of concern among the people. The latest reports indicate that the unemployment rate of the country is at 9.4 percent this year which is quite high. According to the reports, forty million people are still unemployed in the country and more employment opportunities are required for balancing the condition. Indias GDP growth Rate Reports state that several industries have been developed in the country in the past few years and many have been included in the five years development plan for stabilizing the condition. With more financial stabilization plans introduced in the recent years, the overall economy of the country has received a boost. The Indian GDP growth at present is 9.1 percent which is also quite appreciating. Even though the gross domestic product has made a significant growth in the past months, the country needs to maintain a strict growth for emerging as an advanced economy. Recent performance: Real GDP growth slowed to 8.2% y/y in Q4-10, bringing overall growth in 2010 to 8.6%. On a seasonally adjusted basis however, real GDP

fell 2.1% an annualized rate from 15.5% in Q3.Despite a greater contribution from net trade, a decline in government spending and a sharp slowdown in investment took the momentum out of the Indian economy. Across sectors, the slowdown was widespread, with only agriculture and finance showing a pick-up in growth. Industrial activity stood at a near standstill in Q4, rising 0.2% q/q, as spending on capital goods and intermediate goods fell. Consumption spending rose slightly but remains well below potential, expanding 0.4% q/q. Fiscal policy: Plagued by various scandals, the government presented a budget for FY2011/2012 that is weak on reforms and consolidation. At the same time, the government has maintained or increased a number of populist measures, such as price subsidies on sensitive items as well as the rural workers guaranteed employment program. The forecasted improvements over the next 2 years rely on optimistic growth assumptions and improvements in tax collection, as well as the capacity to contain spending within the allocated budget. On the positive side, the budget reinforces the governments commitment to infrastructure and education development and highlights some progress in key changes in the tax systems (direct and consumer taxes), both of which are impediments to unlocki ng Indias growth potential. As a share of GDP, the Central government deficit is expected to reach 4.6% of GDP in FY2011/2012 (excluding off-budget food, fuel and fertilizer price subsidies and the deficits of state governments), from 5.1% in FY2010/2011. Monetary policy: After a lull in Q4, inflationary pressures picked up again early in 2011, pushing the Reserve Bank of India (RBI, the central bank) to return to a

tightening stance, raising interest rates by 25 basis points for the repo and reverse repo early in 2011. The move was prompted not only by resilient inflation pressures, with inflation remaining stubbornly high at 8.2% for both the CPI and WPI in January, but also strong demand for credit, which accelerated to 22.5% y/y in December from 18.2% in November. While the increase in prices is partly driven by food shortages, the ramping up of M2 growth and non-food inflation since are also of concerns. As such, additional tightening is expected early in the year. External sector: Despite strong export growth and remittances inflows, the current account balance continued to expand as a share of GDP in Q3, rising to 4.3%. In Q4 however, the trade surplus shrank to US$21.3 billion in Q4, after averaging over US$30 billion in the first 3 quarters of the year, driven by resurging exports, up 28.4% y/y, and a sharp slowdown in imports, up 1.8% y/y, a sign of the slowing economy. With rising oil prices and the capital account vulnerable to outflows, the balance of payment and rupee are expected to weaken in 2011. However, the level of foreign exchange reserves remains stable at US$274 billion, up from US$254 billion in May 2010, and sufficient to cover 7 months of current account debit. Outlook: The lagged impact of monetary tightening and the pullout of fiscal stimulus will slow real GDP growth to 8.2% in 2011 from 8.6% last year. While infrastructure spending will accelerate, tighter credit conditions will result in a slowdown of private sector activity. Of concern for the mediumlong term business environment are the current corruption scandals, such as those of the Commonwealth Games and the 2G licenses, that have engulfed

Indian economic and policy highlights Domestic car sales in India declined 16% (y-o-y) in Jul11 the sharpest decline since Nov08 in the midst of the global financial crisis. The decline is attributed to higher interest rates and fuel prices. However, the industry body expects a revival from this month, driven by a flurry of new car launches and resumption of full production at Maruti Suzuki. Indias industrial output grew by 8.8% (y-o-y) in June11 primarily on account of a huge 37.7% (y-o-y) growth in capital goods production (which is known for its lumpiness). However, excluding this sector, the industrial growth has weakened to 4.0% (y-o-y) in June11 partly reflecting the impact of sustained monetary tightening on consumer goods growth that has slowed to 1.6% (y-o-y) this month. Indias gross direct tax collections were up by 26.63% (y-o-y), during April-July, 2011 to Rs 1,325.42 bln on account of healthy collections from both corporate and personal income taxes. Indias exports have registered a growth of 81.8% (y-o-y) during Jul11 to USD 29.3 bln, on account of good performance by sectors like petrochemical products, gems & jewelers and electronics. The FDI into India rose over four times in June11 to reach USD 5.65 bln versus USD 1.38 bln a year ago. The FDI into India is expected to cross USD 35 bln in FY12 as against USD 19.4 bln in the previous year on account of major deals between the Reliance group and British Petroleum.

2. INDUSTRY PROFILE
A. INTRODUCTION When we feel thirst we feel like drinking water and we drink it. Based on this concept some developments were taken in beverages industries i.e., Coffee, Tea, Soft drinks, etc., all come under beverage industry. Now, we will look towards the meaning of the soft drink, growth of soft drink and major players of soft drink. Meaning of soft Drink: Soft drink (also referred to as soda, pop, soda pop, coke or fizzy drink)' is a non-alcoholic beverage typically containing water and a flavoring agent. Soft drink can be mainly divided into two groups namely: 1. Carbonated: Carbonated drinks are those, which contain Carbon Di Oxide. Examples: Cola, Mirinda, 7 -Up, Sprite, Thumps up etc. 2. Non-carbonated: Non Carbonated drinks are those, which don't contain Carbon di-Oxide. Examples: Mango drinks (Slice, Maaza etc) The soft drink is known by various names in different countries with different meaning such as in US it is called as soda, cola, and coke. In Florida, mid west California is known as Soda. In Atlanta it is known as coke. In UK, it's called as fizzy drink, pop B. HISTORY:
Seshadripuram Institute of Management Studies 13

ORGANIZATION STUDY

Soft drinks trace their history back to the mineral waters found in natural springs. Ancient societies believed that bathing in natural springs and/or drinking mineral waters could cure many diseases. The earliest soft drinks were sherbets developed by Arabic chemists and originally served in the medieval Near East. "Alkaline Substances", "A kind of Saltwort" from which soda is obtained, probably from Arabic suwwad, the name of a variety of saltwort exported from North Africa to Sicily in the Middle Ages, related to sawed "black," the color of the plant. These were juiced soft drinks made of crushed fruit, herbs, or flower. From around 1265, a popular drink known as Dandelion & Burdock appeared in England, made from fermented dandelion (Taraxacum officinal) and burdock (Actium lappa) roots, and is naturally carbonated. The drink (similar to sarsaparilla) is still available today, but is made with flavorings and carbonated water, since the safrole in the original recipe was found to be carcinogenic. The first marketed soft drinks (non-carbonated) in the Western world appeared in the 17th century. They were made from water and lemon juice sweetened with honey. In 1676, the Compagnie des Limonadiers of Paris was granted a monopoly for the sale of lemonade soft drinks. Vendors carried tanks of lemonade on their backs and dispensed cups of the soft drink to thirsty Parisians. C. MAJOR PLAYER & MARKET SHARE Market segment of soft drink on the basis of types of product: Market share of Carbonated & Non Carbonated Soft drinks: Type Carbonated Non carbonated Market Share 55.2% 44.8% Example Pepsi, Coca- Cola, Thumps Up Orange, Cloudy Lime Clear Lir

3. COMPANYANALYSIS
ORIGIN OF PEPSICO The business began to grow, and on 16th June, 1903, "PEPSICOLA", was officially registered with the U.S. patent office. That year, Caleb sold 7,968 gallons of syrups, using the line "Exhilarating, Invigorating, Aids Deletion". He also began awarding franchise to bottle to Pepsi to independent investors, whose number grew from just two in 1905 in the cities of Charlotte and Durham, North Carolina, then 15 the following year, and 40 by 1910, there were Pepsi-cola Building a strong franchise system was one of Caleb's greatest achievements. Local Pepsi-cola bottles, entrepreneurial in spirit and dedicated to the products success, provided a study foundation. They were the cornerstones of the Pepsi-Cola enterprise. By 1907, the new company was selling more than 100,000 gallons of syrups per year.

Growth was phenomenal, and in 1909 Caleb established a head quarter that the town of New Bern pictured it on a postcard. Famous racing car driver Barney Old-field endorsed Pepsi in newspapers ads as "A Bully

Drink refreshing, invigorating, a fine bracer a race" The previous year, Pepsi had been one of the first companies in the United States to switch from Horse-Drawn transport to motor vehicles, and Caleb's business expertise captured widespread attention. He was even mentioned as a possible candidate for governor in 1913 editorial in the Greensboro Patriot praised him for his "keen and energetic business sense". Pepsi cola's first bottling line resulted from some less than sophisticated engineering in the back room of Caleb's pharmacy. After five owners and 15 unprofitable years, Pepsi-Cola was once again a thriving national band.

Pepsi-Colas first bottling line resulted from some less-than-sophisticated engineering in the back room of Calebs pharmacy.

GROWTH OF PEPSICO: Times were tough and five cents was a lot to pay for a soft drink. So Guth decided to make Pepsi-Cola an even more attractive value for hardpressed consumers. In Baltimore, Pepsi began selling a 12-ounce bottle of cola for just a nickel twice as much refreshment as soft drinks, for the same price. Consumers responded immediately, and Guth expanded the idea throughout the Pepsi-Cola system. Very shortly, Pepsi-Cola was once again a healthy company, growing more strongly than ever. During the 1930's

international expansion began in earnest. The trademark was registered in Latin America and the Soviet Union, and franchises were awarded in Canada.

PepsiCo's commitment to living by this vision every day is visible in its contribution to the country, consumers and farmers. About the Pepsi-Cola Company: The summer of 1898, as usual, was hot and humid in New Bern, North Carolina. So a young pharmacist named Caleb Bradham began experimenting with combinations of spices, juices, and syrups trying to create a refreshing new drink to serve his customers. He succeeded beyond all expectations because he invented the beverage known around the world as Pepsi-Cola. Pepsi-Cola was so popular that Caleb Bradham could hardly take time away from his soda fountain customers to pose for this picture.

CALEB BRADHAM Caleb Braham knew that to keep people returning to his pharmacy, he would have to turn it into a gathering place. He did so by concocting his own special beverage, soft drink. His creation, a unique mixture of kola nut

extract, vanilla and rare oils, became so popular his customers named it "Brad's Drink." Caleb decided to rename it "Pepsi-Cola," and advertised his new soft drink. In 1902, he launched the Pepsi-Cola Company in the back room of his pharmacy, and applied to the U.S. Patent Office for a trademark. At first, he mixed the syrup himself and sold it exclusively through soda fountains. But soon Caleb recognized that a greater opportunity existed to bottle Pepsi so that people could drink it anywhere. The business began to grow, and on June 16, 1903, "Pepsi-Cola" was officially steered with the U.S. Patent Office. That year, Caleb sold 7,968 gallons of syrup, using the theme line "Exhilarating, Invigorating, Aids Digestion." He also began awarding franchises to bottle Pepsi to independent investors, whose number grew from just two in 1905, in the cities of Charlotte and Durham, North Carolina, to 15 the following year, and 40 by 1907. By the end of 1910, there were Pepsi-Cola franchises in 24 states. Pepsi-Co la's first bottling line resulted from some less-than-sophisticated engineering in the back room of Caleb's pharmacy. Building a strong franchise system was one of Caleb's greatest achievements. Local Pepsi-Cola bottlers, entrepreneurial in spirit and dedicated to the product's success, provided a sturdy foundation. They were the cornerstone of the Pepsi-Cola enterprise. Growth was phenomenal, and in 1909 Caleb erected a headquarters so spectacular that the town of New Bern- pictured it on a postcard. Famous racing car driver Barney Oldfield endorsed Pepsi in newspaper ads as "A bully drink refreshing, invigorating, and a fine bracer before a race.

Greensboro Patriot praised him for his energetic business sense. Pepsi-Cola enjoyed 17 unbroken years of success. Caleb now promoted Pepsi sales with the slogan, "Drink Pepsi-Cola. It will satisfy you." Then came World War I, and the cost of doing business increased drastically. Sugar prices see sawed between record highs and disastrous lows, and so did the price of producing Pepsi-Cola. Caleb was forced into a series of business gambles just to survive, until finally, after three exhaustion; luck ran out and he was bankrupted. By 1921, only two plants It wasn't until a successful candy manufacturer, Charles G. Guth, appeared on the scene that the future of Pepsi-Cola was assured. Guth was president of Loft Incorporated, a large chain of candy stores and soda fountains along the eastern seaboard. He saw Pepsi-Cola as an opportunity to discontinue an unsatisfactory business relationship with the Coca-Cola Company, and at the same time to add an attractive drawing card to Loft's soda fountains. He was right. After five owners and 15 unprofitable years, PepsiCola was once again a thriving national brand.

And the coca-cola Company is to of the largest and oldest archrivals in the carbonated soft drinks industry. The war between the soda giants, also known as the "cola wars", initiated in the 1960s when Coca-Cola dominance was being increasingly challenged by Pepsi-Cola. The competitive environment between the rivals was intense and well publicized, forcing the Pepsi Company to continuously establish and implement strategic changes as a means to create a competitive advantage. Furthermore both Pepsi and coke offered a limited number of products that "looked the same, tasted the same, and bubble into foam the same "thus, questioning whether further substantial growth in sales was possible. Rather than succumbing to the impending maturation of its domestic market, the Pepsi company as a leader, fostered by the competitive intensity, launched new strategies, such as product modifications, new forms - of pricing and promotion, and fundamental changes in its distribution system, that have led to rapid and continued expansion of the company's domestic sales. By forecasting and responding to changes in the

In the United States, 48 million Pepsi-Cola aluminum cans are recycled each day] In Canada, over 50% of soft drink containers are recycled', and this continues I rise. Over the years Pepsi-Cola has made the plastic PET bottles more easily recyclable in the United States, Canada Europe and elsewhere. PepsiCol] eliminated base cups in most markets, switched to polypropylene caps instead (aluminum metal caps, and paper contamination. In U.S. and Canadian bottling plants, packages damaged during filling collected and recycled glass, plastic and aluminum. Many plants also recycle] used packaging from incoming materials corrugated packages, straps front pallets, etc. This has reduced plant waste by 50%-75% avoiding disposal costs and land filling. Pepsi-Cola established one of the first programs in the country to collect and recycle the plastic ring connectors from six packs. Since then the company has established similar programs with its supplier, Hircine, at over 10,000 schools across the country. Many of the Pepsi-Cola bottling partners have established programs to recycle ring connectors collected after filling vending machines with cans. And if some consumers do litter, North American ring connectors are photo degradable and have a "breakaway" pull tab so they can be easily separated, minimizing any impact on wildlife.

SWOT Analysis of Pepsi Company


PepsiCo Strengths Branding - One of PepsiCo's top brands is of course Pepsi, one of the
Seshadripuram Institute of Management Studies 36

ORGANIZATION STUDY

most recognized brands of the world, ranked according to Interbred. As of 2008 it ranked 26th amongst top 100 global brands. Pepsi generates more than $15,000 million of annual sales. Pepsi is joined in broad. recognition by such PepsiCo brands as Diet Pepsi, Gatorade Mountain Dew, Thirst Quencher, Lay's Potato Chips, Lipton Teas (PepsiCo/Unilever Partnership), Tropicana Beverages, Fritos Corn, Tostitos Tortilla Chips, Doritos Tortilla Chips, Aquafma Bottled Water, Cheetos Cheese Flavored Snacks, Quaker Foods and Snacks, Ruffles Potato Chips, Mirinda, Tostitos Tortilla The strength of these brands is evident in PepsiCo's presence in over 200 countries. The company has the largest market share in the US beverage at 39%, and snack food market at 25%. Such brand dominance insures loyalty and repetitive sales which contributes to over $15 million in annual sales for the company. Diversification - PepsiCo's diversification is obvious in that the fact that each of its top 18 brands ge:p.erates annual sales of over $1,000 million. PepsiCo's arsenal also includes ready-to-drink teas, juice drinks, bottled water, as well as breakfast cereals, cakes and cake mixes. This broad product base plus a multi-channel distribution system serve to help insulate PepsiCo from shifting business climates. Distribution - The Company delivers its products directly from manufacturing plants and warehouses to customer warehouses and retail stores. This is part of a three pronged approach which also includes employees making direct store deliveries of snacks and beverages and the use of third party distribution services. Weaknesses Overdependence on Wal-Mart- Sales to Wal-Mart represent approximately 12% of PepsiCo's total net revenue. Wal-Mart is
Seshadripuram Institute of Management Studies 37

ORGANIZATION STUDY

PepsiCo's largest customer in USA. As a result PepsiCo's fortunes are influenced by the business strategy of Wal-Mart specifically its emphasis on private-label sales which produce a higher profit margin than national brands. Wal-Mart's low price themes put pressure on PepsiCo to hold down prices. Overdependence on US Markets - Despite its international presence, 52% of its revenues originate in the US. This concentration does leave PepsiCo somewhat vulnerable to the impact of changing economic conditions, and labor strikes. Large US customers could exploit PepsiCo's lack of bargaining power and negatively impact its revenues. Low Productivity - In 2008 PepsiCo had approximately 198,000 employees. Its revenue per employee was $219,439, which was lower that its competitors. This may indicate comparatively low productivity on the part of PepsiCo employees. Image Damage Due to Product Recall- Recently (2008) salmonella contamination forced PepsiCo to pull Aunt Jemima pancake and waffle mix from retail shelves. This followed incidents of exploding Diet Pepsi cans in 2007. Such occurrences damage company image and reduce consumer confidence in PepsiCo products. Opportunities Broadening of Product Base - PepsiCo is seeking to address one of its potential weaknesses; dependency on US markets by acquiring Russia's leading Juice Company, Lebedyansky, and V Water in the United Kingdom. It continues to broaden its product base by introducing True North Nut Snacks and increasing its Lipton Tea venture with Unilever. These recent initiatives will enable PepsiCo to adjust to the changing lifestyles of its consumers. International Expansion - PepsiCo is in the midst of making a $1, 000 million investment in China, and a $500 million investment in India.
Seshadripuram Institute of Management Studies 38

ORGANIZATION STUDY

Both initiatives are part of its expansion into international markets and a lessening of its dependence on US sales. In addition the company plans on major capital initiatives in Brazil and Mexico. Growing Savory Snack and Bottled Water market in US - PepsiCo is positioned well to capitalize on the growing bottle water market which is projected to be worth over $24 million by 2012. Products such as Aquafina, and Propel are well established products and in a position to ride the upward PepsiCo products such as, Doritos tortilla chips, Cheetos cheese flavored snacks, Tostitos tortilla chips, Fritos corn chips, Ruffles potato chips, Sun Chips multigrain snacks, Rold Gold pretzels, Santitas are also benefiting from a growing savory snack market which is projected to grow as much as 27% by 2013, representing an increase of$28 million. Threats Decline in Carbonated Drink Sales - Soft drink sales are projected to decline by as much as 2.7% by 2012, down $ 63,459 million in value. PepsiCo is in the process of diversification, but is likely to feel the impact of the projected decline. Potential Negative Impact of Government Regulations - It is anticipated that government initiatives related to environmental, health and safety may have the potential to negatively impact PepsiCo. For example, manufacturing, marketing, and distribution of food products may be altered as a result of state, federal or local dictates. Preliminary studies on acryl amide seem to suggest that it may cause cancer in laboratory animals when consumed in significant amounts. If the company has to comply with a related regulation and add warning labels or place warnings in certain locations where its products are sold, a negative impact may result for PepsiCo. Intense Competition - The Coca-Cola Company is PepsiCo's primary
Seshadripuram Institute of Management Studies 39

ORGANIZATION STUDY

competitors. But others include Nestle, Grouped DANONE and Kraft Foods. Intense competition may influence pricing, advertising, sales promotion initiatives undertaken by PepsiCo. Recently Coca-Cola passed PepsiCo in Juice sales. Potential Disruption Due to Labor Unrest - Based upon recent history, PepsiCo may be vulnerable to strikes and other labor disputes. In 2008 a strike in India shut down production for nearly an entire month. This disrupted both manufacturing and distribution. PepsiCo is a world leader in convenient snacks, foods and beverages with revenues of more than $43 billion and over 198,000 employees. Take a journey through our past and see the key milestones that define PepsiCo.

Soft drink manufacturers adhere to strict water quality standards for allowable dissolved solids, alkalinity, chlorides, sulfates, iron, and aluminum. Not only is it in the interest of public health, but clean water also facilitates the production process and maintains consistency in flavor, color, and body. Microbiological and other testing occur regularly. The National Soft Drink Association and other agencies set standards for regulating the quality of sugar and other ingredients. If soft drinks are produced with lowquality sugar, particles in the beverage will spoil it, creating floc. To prevent such spoilage, sugar must be carefully handled in dry, sanitized environments. It is crucial for soft drink manufacturers to inspect raw materials before they are mixed with other ingredients, because preservatives may not kill all bacteria. All tanks, pumps, and containers are thoroughly sterilized and continuously monitored. Cans, made of aluminum alloy or tin-coated low-carbon steel, are lacquered internally to seal the metal and prevent corrosion from contact with the beverage. Soft drink manufacturers also recommend specific storage conditions to retailers to insure that the beverages do not spoil. The shelf life of soft drinks is generally at least one year.

Quality Assurance: Perhaps the most important in a bottling plant are those concerned with the maintenance of the standards of purity and uniformity set for the beverages produced. Those activities can be grouped together under the heading of quality assurance. To get the top most quality of the product, all the ingredients such as water, CO2, concentrate; are strictly inspected and analyzed by our quality assurance department. Apart from raw material, online sampling finished products are also tested.

Major Players and Market Shares: The two global majors Pepsi and Coca-cola, Which had winded up its India operations during the introduction of the FERA regime, reentered India 16 years later in 1993, dominate the soft drink market in India. Cocacola acquired a major chunk of the soft drink market buying out local brands thumps up, Limca and gold spot from Parle beverages. Coca cola has also acquired Cadbury Schweppes soft drinks brands crush, Canada dry and sport Cola in early 1999.Pepsi although started a couple of years before Coca-Cola in 1991,has a lower market share today. It has bought over Mumbai based duke's rang of soft drink brands both the cola manufacturers come up with their own market share figures and claim to have increased their share.

Segmentation: The soft drink market can be segmented on the basis of place of consumption or on the basis of type or products. The segmentation on the basis of place of consumption divides the market into Parts. On-premise -80% of the consumption of the soft drinks is on premise i.e. restaurants, sweet marts, railway station, cinema theaters etc. At home-the rest of 20%of the market comprises of the soft drinks purchased for consumption at home. The market can also be segmented 0 the basis of types of products into cola products and non-cola products. Cola products account for nearly 62-65% of the total soft drinks

market. The brands that fall in this category are Pepsi, coca-cola, thumps up, diet coke, diet Pepsi etc. Non-cola segment, which constitutes 36%, can be divided into four categories based on the types of flavors available, namely: Orange, Cloudy Lime, Clear Lime, and Mango. Orange flavor based soft drinks constitute around 17% of the market. The segment is largely dominated by national brands like Fanta of coca-cola and Mirinda orange of Pepsi Co, which collectively form 15% of the market, rest of the market is in hands of smaller brands like crush, Gold Spot etc. Cloudy Lime flavors constitutes of 14% of the market and is largely dominated by Limca of coca-cola and Mirinda Lemon of Pepsi Co, Limca is the market leader with around 0-75% of the market followed by Mirinda Lemon. Clear lime: this segment of the market witnessed good growth initially with all the players launching their brands in the segment. Mango: this flavor segment constitutes 2% of the total soft drinks market and it directly it completes with mango based fruit drinks like Frooti. The leading brands in these segments are: Maaza of coca-cola, and slice of Pepsi.

PROCESS INVOLVED IN MANUFACTURING OF PRODUCT: Raw Materials: Carbonated water constitutes up to 94% of a soft drink. Carbon dioxide adds that special sparkle and bites to the beverage and also acts as a mild preservative. Carbon dioxide is a uniquely suitable gas for soft drinks because it is inert, non-toxic, and relatively inexpensive and easy to liquefy. The second main ingredient is sugar, which makes up 7-12% of a soft drink. Used in either dry or liquid form, sugar adds sweetness and body to the beverage, enhancing the "mouth feel," an important component for
Seshadripuram Institute of Management Studies 46

ORGANIZATION STUDY

consumer enjoyment of a soft drink. Sugar also balances flavors and acids. Sugar-free soft drinks stemmed from a sugar scarcity during World War II. Soft drink manufacturers turned to high-intensity sweeteners, mainly saccharin, which was phased out in the 1970s when it was declared a potential carcinogen. Other sugar substitutes were introduced more successfully, notably aspartame, or Nutria-Sweet, which was widely used throughout the 1980s and 1990s for diet soft drinks. Because some high-intensity sweeteners do not Provide the desired mouth-feel and aftertaste of sugar; they often are combined with sugar and other sweeteners and flavors to improve the beverage. The overall flavor of a soft drink depends on an intricate balance of sweetness, tartness, and acidity (pH). Acids add sharpness to the background taste and enhance the thirst-quenching experience by stimulating saliva flow. The most common acid in soft drinks is citric

acid, which has a lemony flavor. Acids also reduce pH levels, mildly preserving the beverage. Very small quantities of other additives enhance taste, mouth-feel, aroma, and appearance of the beverage. There is an endless range of flavorings; they may be natural, natural identical (chemically synthesized imitations), or artificial (chemically unrelated to natural flavors). Emulsions are added to soft drinks primarily to enhance "eye appeal" by serving as clouding agents. Emulsions are mixtures of liquids that are generally incompatible. They consist of water-based elements, such as gums, pectin's, and preservatives; and oil-based liquids, such as flavors, colors, and weighing agents. Saponins enhance the foamy head of certain soft drinks, like cream soda and ginger beer. To impede the growth of microorganisms and prevent deterioration, preservatives are added to soft drinks.

oxidants, such as BHA and ascorbic acid, maintain color and flavor. Beginning in the 1980s, soft drink manufacturers opted for natural additives increasing health concerns of the public. Impurities in the water are removed through a process of coagulation, filtration, and chlorination. Coagulation involves mixing folk into the water to absorb suspended particles. The water is then poured through a sand filter to remove fine particles of Roc. To sterilize the water, small amounts of chlorine are added to the water and filtered out.

The Manufacturing Process: Most soft drinks are made at local bottling and canning

Brand name grant licenses to bottlers to mix the soft drinks in strict accordance to their secret formulas and their required manufacturing procedures. Clarifying the water: The quality of water is crucial to the success of a soft drink. Impurities, such as suspended particles, organic matter, and bacteria, may degrade taste and color. They are generally removed through the traditional process of a series of coagulation, filtration, and chlorination. Coagulation involves mixing a gelatinous precipitate, or floc (ferric sulphate or aluminum sulphate), into the water. The floc absorbs suspended particles, making them larger and more easily trapped by filters. During the clarification process, alkalinity must be adjusted with an addition of lime to reach the desired pH level.

Filtering, sterilizing, and dechlorinating the water:


Seshadripuram Institute of Management Studies 49

ORGANIZATION STUDY

The clarified water is poured through a sand filter to remove fine particles of folk. The water passes through a layer of sand and courser beds of gravel to capture the particles. Sterilization is necessary to destroy bacteria and organic compounds that might spoil the water's taste or color. The water is pumped into a storage tank and is dosed with a small amount of tree chlorine. The chlorinated water remains in the storage tank for about two hours until the reaction is complete. 4 Next, an activated carbon filter dechlorinates the water and removes residua\ organic matter, much like the sand filter. A vacuum pump de-aerates the water before it passes into a dosing station. Mixing the ingredients: The dissolved sugar and flavor concentrates are pumped into the dosing station in a predetermined sequence according to their compatibility. The ingredients are conveyed into batch tanks where they are carefully mixed; too much agitation can cause unwanted aeration. The syrup may be sterilized while in the tanks, using ultraviolet radiation or flash pasteurization, which involves quickly heating and cooling the mixture. Fruit based syrups generally must be pasteurized. The water and syrup are carefully combined by sophisticated machines, called proportioners, which regulate the flow rates and ratios of the liquids. The vessels are pressurized with carbon dioxide to prevent aeration of the mixture. Carbonating the beverage: Carbonation is generally added to the finished product, though it may be mixed into the water at an earlier stage. The temperature of the liquid must be carefully controlled since carbon dioxide solubility increases as the liquid temperature decreases. Many carbonators are equipped with their own cooling systems. The amount of carbon dioxide pressure used depends
Seshadripuram Institute of Management Studies 50

ORGANIZATION STUDY

on the type of soft drink. For instance, fruit drinks require far less carbonation than mixer drinks, such as tonics, which are meant to be diluted with other liquids. The beverage is slightly over-pressured with carbon dioxide to facilitate the movement into storage tanks and ultimately to the filler machine. Filling and packaging: The finished product is transferred into bottles or cans at extremely high flow rates. The containers are immediately sealed with pressure-resistant closures, either tinplate or steel crowns with corrugated edges, twist off, or pull tabs. Because soft drinks are generally cooled during the manufacturing process, they must be brought to room temperature before labeling to prevent condensation from ruining the labels. This is usually achieved by spraying the containers with warm water and drying them. Labels are then affixed to bottles to provide information about the brand, ingredients, shelf life, and safe use of the product. Most labels are made of paper though some are made of a plastic film. Cans are generally preprinted with product information before the filling stage. Finally, containers are packed into cartons or trays which are then shipped in larger pallets or crates to distributors. Manufacturing Process of Carbonated Drink: Water and Water Treatment: Pure water is taste less, color less and odor less. Water as it occurs in nature, whatever the source, always contains impurities in solution are in suspension. The determination of these impurities makes water analysis necessary and the control of these impurities makes water conditioning essential. The various sources of water can be classified as rain water, surface water and ground water. Irrespective of the source of the water, the water

has to be tested and treated before taking in to the production. Testing and Treatment Procedure Adopted At MIS. Nectar Beverges Pvt. Ltd. Dharwad: The source of water at Nectar Beverages Pvt. Ltd. is ground water. The water is tested for various parameters like, hardness, alkalinity, suspended impurities, and micro organisms. Treatment Procedure: There are two types of water treatment adopted at nectar beverages Pvt. Ltd, Chemical batch treatment: This water is used for beverage purpose. Ion exchange: This water is used for boiler feed water, cooling tower, D.G. sets, condenser, heat exchanger and bottle washer. 1. Chemical Batch Treatment Process: Here the raw water is collected in storage tanks and dosages for chemical treatment are given according to the characteristics of the raw water. The source of raw water is bore wells. At present N .B.P.L. is holding three water treatment storage tanks, out of which two tanks are of3,00,000 liters capacity and one is 4,00,000 liters capacity. Raw water is collected from bore wells in the storage treatment tanks and analyzed the characteristics of raw water such has P-alkalinity, Malkalinity, temporary hardness and calcium hardness, afterwards chemical dosages are fixed. After addition of chemicals, the water is stirred by mechanical agitator, and three hours contact period is given before taking the water for production. Treated water passed through the sand filter to remove any floe carryover, then an activated carbon filter which removes chlorine and off taste/ odor causing impurities. Finally it goes through 5 micron pore size polishing filters to remove any carbon that may have been carried out over from the carbon purifier, and then through ultra-violet. Chlorine

concentration is maintained at 6-8 PPM level before carbon filter and 2 hours contact time prior to dechlorination. Details of Chemicals Used: Lime: Added to remove alkaline compounds from water to an acceptable level and to reduce temporary hardness. Bleaching Powder: Added for chlorination to oxidize

microorganisms. Ferrous Sulphate: Added for coagulation and flocculation i.e., to remove the suspended solids and also insoluble materials created by chlorination and alkalinity reduction is removed. The sludge is drained and the treatment tanks cleaned with water after every treatment and fresh raw water is taken for fresh treatment. Sweetening Agent and Syrup Preparation: Sweetening agents are those subsistence's, which when blended with flavor, acid etc. will provide satisfactory sweet taste in the finished beverages. They also furnished body, which helps to carry or transits the flavor. They also give energy or food value to the beverage. Syrup Preparation: The preparation of the syrup is certainly one of the most important operations in the beverage plant, both from the stand point of sanitation and control of concentration. The object in syrup making is to prepare satisfactorily bended and finished syrup from which uniform beverages of high quality can be produced. Normally required quantity of sugar of high quality is added to treated water and heated to 85 C, in a high grade stainless steel double jack vessel. Activated carbon is added to this to remove impurities. Impurities along with activated carbon added to the sugar are separated form the sugar solution by filtering the sugar syrup. Filter paper and Hyflo Supercel are

used as filter aid. The temperature of the clear syrup thus obtained is brought down to 20 C and stored is called "Simple" syrup. When the syrup is completely prepared by the addition and blending of all flavoring ingredients it is called as "Ready"/ "Finished" / Flavored The syrup is ready for use in production process, CO2 and Carbonation: The.C02 used for beverage purpose are 99.9% pure, free from moisture, air, oil, grease and other impurities.

The amount of CO2 dissolved in solution is called as volumes. The number of volumes of gas in the finished beverage has a definite relationship to the taste of the beverage. Correct carbonation means a sparkling, stimulating, thirst quenching beverage that completely refreshes and satisfies the consumer. Since there is definite relationship between taste and carbonation, it is extremely important to determine and maintain the carbonation which has proved most acceptable through experience in consumer section. The technique adopted at MIS. N.B.P.L for carbonating the beverage is as under: The ready syrup, which is prepared and stored in ready syrup tank, is taken to the bottling line. It is passed trough a machine called 'premix' where the syrup is automatically diluted with treated water to the required level. Once it is diluted it is sent to the carbonator for carbonation. For carbonating the beverage a mechanical device known as "CARBONATOR" is used. CO2 gas enters the carbonator through a valve at the top of the body of the carbonator. The dome as well as the body of the carbonator is filled with gas. Syrup is sprayed in to the carbonator from the top, which flows down through the baffle plates provided inside the carbonator. As the water flows down it gets mixed with the CO2 gas nrp.se, nr inside the carbonator.

Concentrates: Flavoring materials used in making carbonated beverages are primarily are alcoholic extracts, emulsions, alcoholic solutions or fruit juices. Concentrates or non-alcoholic beverage bases are supplied by N.B.P.L's principle company from channo (Punjab) having international standards. On addition of concentrate to the simple syrup we get respective finished syrup ready for further process beverages. Bottle Washing and Bottle Inspection: One of the most important aspects of the bottling operation is the cleaning of the reusable bottles when it returns to the bottling plant. In order to be reused the bottle must be sterile, of acceptable appearance, rinsed free of any detergent of sterilizing agent, and of good mechanical strength. The object of bottle washing is to produce both a clean bottle and stelile one. The fact that bottle looks dean does not indicate it is sterile, and on the other hand, a dirty looking bottle may be a sterile one. The present day bottle washer is designed to both clean and sanitize bottles before sending them to the filling line.

Plant Sanitation: The most scrupulous sanitation practices are essential in soft drink plant. The highest standard of cleanliness for premises, personnel and equipment is obviously necessary due to the type of operation involved that of manufacturing a food product. Sanitation is necessary to insure the keeping qualities, proper appearance and full flavor of any soft drink. When the equipment becomes contaminated, yeast, bacteria or mold microorganisms begin to appear in the finished beverage. Increased numbers of these microorganisms will cause the development of undesirable tastes and odors and ultimate spoilage of the product: Nothing will kill the demand for a beverage any quicker than off

tastes and odors or product spoilage. Hence sanitation, good plant house keeping and good manufacturing practice are strictly implemented at N.B.P.L.

Quality Assurance: Perhaps the most important activities in bottling plant are those concerned with the maintenance of the standards of purity and uniformity set for the beverages produced. These activities can be grouped together under the heading

of quality Assurance. To get the too most quality of finished product, all the ingredients such as water sugar, CO2, concentrate are strictly inspected and analyzed by N.B.P L Quality.

Effluent Treatment Plant: The effluent water charged by N.B.P.L is properly treated and neutralized to maintain a value of C.O.D., B.O.D., pH and T.D.S in water as per the guidelines prescribed by the Water Pollution Board of Karnataka. For this N.B.P.L has full fledged effluent treatment plant.

Terms and concepts used in the study: Several ratios calculated from the accounting data, can be grouped into various classes accounting to financial activity or functions to be evaluated. We classify ratios into the following four important categories. 1. Liquidity ratio 2. Leverage ratio 3. Activity ratio 4. Profitability ratio

1. Liquidity ratio: Liquidity refers to the ability of a firm to meet its obligations in the short run, usually one year. Liquidity ratios are generally based on the relationship between current assets (the sources for meeting short ten obligations) and current liabilities. The important liquidity ratios are: Current Ratio Acid Test ratio or Quick Ratio Cash Ratio Net Working Capital Ratio 2. Leverage ratio: Financial leverage refers to the use of debt finance, while debt capital is a cheaper source of finance. It is a riskier source. Leverage ratios help in assessing the risk arising from the rise of debt capital. The important ratios are: Proprietary ratio Fixed assets to net worth ratio .3. Activity/efficiency/turnover ratio: Activity ratios are employed to evaluate the efficiency with which the firm manages and utilizes its assets. These ratios are also called turnover

SUGGESTIONS
The company should provide more coolers to the retailers to maximize sale. They should provide the retailers good service during the off season also. Pepsi Company should give more schemes to retailers and promote them to keep more stocks to increase sale. Company should introduce an Executive who will look after circulation of coolers and maintain it. The most important parameter scheme given by Pepsi is really good but it is not reaching to every retailers.

CONCLUSION
Thus according to this Internship project I conclude that most of the retailers stock both the products of Pepsi & Coke because of consumer demand for the Products and also for the service provided by the company. Retailers prefer Pepsi brand more because sales person maintain a very good relationship with the retailer & also because of its good quality. The most important parameter is the scheme given by the Pepsi is really good.
