foam products industry faces financial problems. Two other
rubber products units are also facing the problem of finance.
Out of the eight units facing the shortage of capital two
units are tread rubber units. Three rubber band units are also
facing shortage of capital. One unit each from rubber foot
wear. tyres and tube and other rubber products sector also faces
shortage of capital. none of the surveyed foam products units
faces any shortage of capital. Out of the two units complained

with labour. This is 38.89 per cent of the total units surveyed.
One of the major reasons for the abovementioned factor is the
comparatively smaller number of labourers in the majority of
the rubberbased industrial units. Among the 21 units facing
the problem of labour 10 attributed unionisation as their major

7.2.4 Power
This is 64.81 per cent of the total units surveyed. Among the
35 units facing the problem of power 16 units are of the opinion
that scarcity of power is the major problem affecting them.
This accounted for 45.72 per cent of the units facing power
problems. Another eleven units complained irregular supply
of electricity as the major problem affecting them. This is
particularly importmntas some of the rubber-based units have
to work continuously and any breakdown in between affects the

low demand for their products. Out of the ten units facing
competition from other units in marketing their products,
four are tread rubber units, three are rubber band units, two
are rubber footwear units and one is a tyre and tube manufactur
ing unit. Tread rubber units are of the opinion that the domi
nation and competition from large units creates a lot of pro
blems in marketing their goods. One tread rubber unit and foot
wear unit considered low quality of their products as a major
bottleneck in marketing their products. Among the seven units
which face the problem of transportation two are rubber band
units and one unit each is from tread rubber. rubber footwear,
tyres and tube, foam products and other rubber products sector.
An important characteristic of the rubber band unit is that
rubber band is mainly sold outside the state either through
selling agents. or through middlemen or directly. The units
which have established their marketing are only a few and as
a result majority of the units are dependent on the intermedi
aries. The extent of control exerted by the intermediaries is
evident from the fact that many of the smaller units have to
resort to price cuts to sell the products and consequently the
sale price in monetary terms is stagnating (George Tharian.
1986). Analysis shows that one rubber band unit and other
rubber products sector unit face other problems related to
marketing.

based industry in the state. Five units each from tread rubber
and rubber band, three rubber footwear units, one unit each
from tyres and tube and foam products and two other rubber
products sector units felt the need for more favourable state
policy towards the rubber manufacturing industry in the state.
They are of the opinion that the existing tax structure is not
in tune with the changing conditions. High tax rates on vari
ous types of rubber-based units adversely affect the growth of
many units. The high incidence of excise duty on tread rubber,
carbon black etc., which are used in retreading and repairing
of tyres, is detrimental to the growth of the tread rubber indu
stry (Laxminarayan, 1986). If the duty is exempted in such
items many sick and limping units can be revived and new entre
preneurs will come forward to set up more such units.
The industry suffers enormously under the heavy customs
duty on various synthetic rubbers and compounding ingredients
imported into the country. The total duty structure varies bet
ween 114 per cent and 319 per cent in most of the cases. All
these increase the cost of the finished products at the end
putting a burden upon the average consumer. Another important
