SCOPE OF STUDY

In my opinion this study is very useful to the organization, because this study tells the whole documentation and procedure of exports. And also tells about fluctuations and competition, that company is facing from the outer market. And if the organization realizes these all the things then they perform better than present and by this there is also the development of the organization. On the other hand this study is very useful to me also. This is the first chance when I saw the work of exports which is done by finance by the help of marketing department and all the things which are done by the finance department. This is the first and very useful experience of my life which teach me many things about the market and I say this is also my first move to the Corporate life which make my future best.

Mass Manufacturing Line Design and Set - Up : Samtels Corporate Project Group ( SPG ) has developed the capability of putting large mass manufacturing lines . SPGs threads go back to the monochrome lines when they setup 3 lines, in eighties, for total capacity of 5 M monochrome CRTs for TV and monitor applications . All the 3 lines were designed in-house and commissioned successfully. Because of these lines Samtel remained largest manufacturer of monochrome CRTs in India.

SPG also put Electron Gun Plant for monochrome guns with in-house capability of design. SPG was responsible for putting two mega projects e.g. Samtel color Ltd. Line 1 with Mitsubishi and Samcore Kota with Corning USA.

SPG than taken up the task of upgrading the capacity of Samtel Color Line 1 from initial 0.5 M to present 1.5 Million . All this was done with in-house design capability. The process engineering supported this activity with their knowledge of various manufacturing processes. There was no support from Mitsubishi for this activity. SPGs next feather in cap is Samtel Colors Line 2 (capacity of 1.5 M upgraded to 2.4 M) and Line-3 (Capacity of 1.8 M upgraded to 2.4 M). This line was designed with in-house capability and project was delivered within time delivering the tough quality requirement. The line is currently producing to its capacity.

Page | 36 IMS , LUCKNOW UNIVERSITY , LUCKNOW

This activity was done for the first time in the country. Also this remains to be only successful venture in India considering the competition.

SPG has also delivered the Color Funnel project of Samcor Kota. SPGs next venture is Line-4 at Plant 2 of Samtel Color Ltd and Line-5 at Samtel Color Ltd-Kota.. Samtel has initiated the project for futuristic technologies like Plasma Display panel ( PDP ) . Field Emission Displays ( FED ) and OLED are being launched as other projects having future potential. Samtel has successfully completed the Lab scale prototype development of the PDP.

Samtel has setup a center at Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur for R&D in Display Technologies and invested a sum of Rs. 15 crore for the same. Presently, around 150 Engineers are working continuously for the Research and Development for development of picture tubes, Electron Guns, Deflection Yokes and Process engineering and equipment development.

PRODUCTION PROCESS

A color picture tube typically consists of following components i.e. Panel , Funnel , Electron Gun, Deflection Yoke , Flat Grill and Shadow mask assembly including Frame, Bi-metals etc., Internal Magnetic Shield. Over and above these, for prototyping and mass production the tube, an Ultra violet Exposure system which includes higher order axially unsymmetrical Aspheric lenses called the Light House System. is essential..

Panel and Funnel are generally Glass components forming the bulk in a CPT. They provide the surface for phosphors and evacuated space to hold Electron Gun and shadow mask and IMS assembly. Design, development and fabrication of these Glass components call for huge capital investment in new molds with appropriate contours and in materials with appropriate compositions for minimizing stresses under vacuum , to take mechanical and thermal stresses under manufacturing process and to minimize X-ray and Electromagnetic radiations.

Electron Gun consists of three in-line cathodes, electro-optic lenses for electron beam acceleration and focusing . Electro-optical grids are designed to achieve predecided spot performance at the Image plane ( i.e. Panel inside surface ) and to achieve best beam convergence. While designing grid shapes and spacing, manufacturing ease and friendliness are also to be considered. Besides,

Page | 38 IMS , LUCKNOW UNIVERSITY , LUCKNOW

Deflection Yoke design and Shadow mask design also demand certain trade offs in the Electron Gun design .

Deflection Yoke deflects the three Electron Beams from center to corners in Horizontal as well as Vertical directions. Horizontal and Vertical deflection frequencies depend upon Telecasting system ( i.e. PAL/NTSC ) and for minimum flicker. Deflection Yoke is designed for minimum power requirement from the chassis, optimum convergence of three beams at all the points on the Image surface, minimum beam spot distortions as beam is moved from center to corners.

Shadow Mask assembly is used as a Color Selection grid in a Color Picture Tube. Aperture sizes and aperture to aperture distances in Horizontal direction are designed in such a way that so that only corresponding electron beams land on particular Phosphor stripe. Shadow Mask Aperture distribution and its profile is designed to achieve uniform Beam spacing throughout the viewable screen area. Besides this, a frame for holding curved shadow mask and a suspension system for precisely holding the whole assembly inside the Panel as well as for holding Internal Magnetic Shield are required.. Thermalexpansion of shadow mask under normal operating condition and discoloration caused in the image due to beam mislanding are also to be taken into account while designing shadow mask aperture distribution ,curvature and its

Page | 39 IMS , LUCKNOW UNIVERSITY , LUCKNOW

spacing from the inside surface of the panel.. Vertical spacing of aperture is decided based on Telecast system to have minimum Moire interference with the scanning lines. Internal Magnetic Shield in a Color Picture Tube is used to protect Electron Beams from the influence of Earth's magnetic field.Internal Magnetic Shield height and window opening towards Electron Gun side is decided based upon Yoke Pull Back, Neck Shadow and magnetic interference with Yoke magnetic field. Besides the above components, to make an array of Green, Blue and Phosphor stripes on inside surface of the panel, Photosensitive slurries are exposed, developed and re-exposed using High intensity Ultra-violet light sources. Effect of Deflection Yoke and Electron Gun combination in a tube is simulated as closely as possible with the UV rays. This is achieved by the X , Y and Z settings of the Light Houses and by designing appropriate optical surfaces in between the UV light source and the Panel. Objective of these optical surfaces is to make incident angles of UV rays on different Shadow Mask apertures exactly equal to those of the Electron beams incidenting on the same apertures in the final Tube assembly. Besides ,design and development of profile equation for such higher order axially symmetrical/asymmetrical aspheric surfaces, accurate fabrication on optical glass calls for sophisticated CNC controlled machining and polishing processes.

MAJOR CHALLENGES FOR THE ORGANIZATION


In the modern world of technology and competition. Every organization is trying to reach at the first position in both the domestic and foreign market. But now days where on one hand companies execute new plans for increasing their sales, so on the hand they execute plans to save extra expenditure which is charged by the government of the particular country on the exports of products or goods. So, the challenges which are faced by the company in current scenario are as follows : To save the export duty as much as possible which is charged on the export of the product. To increase the sales of products in the foreign market i.e. exports. To show the required exports done as per the EPCG Clauses.

INTRODUCTION OF EXPORTS

The term "export" is derived from the conceptual meaning as to ship the goods and services out of the port of a country. The seller of such goods and services is referred to as an "exporter" who is based in the country of export whereas the overseas based buyer is referred to as an "importer". In International Trade, "exports" refers to selling goods and services produced in home country to other markets.

any good or commodity, transported from one country to another country in a legitimate fashion, typically for use in trade. Export goods or services are provided to foreign consumers by domestic producers.

The definition of "export" is when you trade something out of the country. In economics, an export is any good or commodity, transported from one country to another country in a legitimate fashion, typically for use in trade.

In national accounts "exports" consist of transactions in goods and services (sales, barter, gifts or grants) from residents to non-residents. The exact definition of exports includes and excludes specific "borderline" cases.

INTRODUCTION OF PROBLEM

In today's competitive scenario, companies faces lots of competition to survive in the market. So, Samtel Color Ltd. also faces the problem in the current competitive and frequently changing scenario. As the needs and demands of the customers are changing day-by-day with the changing technology and comforts.

Major problems faced by the company are as follows:

To increase the sales in the foreign market. To save the duty charged by the customs on the exports of goods. To fulfill the demands of the customer's on time. To send all the documents which are needed in exports to the customer's at the same time when shipment of goods are done.

LITERATURE REVIEW
Definition:
The definition of "export" is when you trade something out of the country. In economics, an export is any good or commodity, transported from one country to another country in a legitimate fashion, typically for use in trade.

In national accounts "exports" consist of transactions in goods and services (sales, barter, gifts or grants) from residents to non-residents.The exact definition of exports includes and excludes specific "borderline" cases. A general delimitation of exports in national accounts is given below:

An export of a good occurs when there is a change of ownership from a resident to a non-resident; this does not necessarily imply that the good in question physically crosses the frontier. However, in specific cases national accounts impute changes of ownership even though in legal terms no change of ownerhip takes place (e.g. cross border financial leasing, cross border deliveries between affiliates of the same enterprise, goods crossing the border for significant processing to order or repair). Also smuggled goods must be included in the export measurement.

Export of services consist of all services rendered by residents to non-residents. In national accounts any direct purchases by non-residents in the economic territory of a country are recorded as exports of services; therefore all expenditure by foreign tourists in the economic territory of a country is considered as part of the

Page | 45 IMS , LUCKNOW UNIVERSITY , LUCKNOW

exports of services of that country. Also international flows of illegal services must be included.

National accountants often need to make adjustments to the basic trade data in order to comply with national accounts concepts; the concepts for basic trade statistics often differ in terms of definition and coverage from the requirements in the national accounts:

Data on international trade in goods are mostly obtained through declarations to custom services. If a country applies the general trade system, all goods entering or leaving the country are recorded. If the special trade system (e.g. extra-EU trade statistics) is applied goods which are received into customs warehouses are not recorded in external trade statistics unless they subsequently go into free circulation in the country of receipt.

A special case is the intra-EU trade statistics. Since goods move freely between the member states of the EU without customs controls, statistics on trade in goods between the member states must be obtained through surveys. To reduce the statistical burden on the respondents small scale traders are excluded from the reporting obligation.

Statistical recording of trade in services is based on declarations by banks to their central banks or by surveys of the main operators. In a globalized

Page | 46 IMS , LUCKNOW UNIVERSITY , LUCKNOW

economy where services can be rendered via electronic means (e.g. internet) the related international flows of services are difficult to identify.

Basic statistics on international trade normally do not record smuggled goods or international flows of illegal services. A small fraction of the smuggled goods and illegal services may nevertheless be included in official trade statistics through dummy shipments or dummy declarations that serve to conceal the illegal nature of the activities.

History
The theory of international trade and commercial policy is one of the oldest branches of economic thought. Exporting is a major component of international trade, and the macroeconomic risks and benefits of exporting are regularly discussed and disputed by economists and others. Two views concerning international trade present different perspectives. The first recognizes the benefits of international trade. The second concerns itself with the possibly that certain domestic industries (or laborers, or culture) could be harmed by foreign competition.

Exports and free trade


The theory of comparative advantage materialized during the first quarter of the 19th century in the writings of 'classical economists'. While David Ricardo is most credited with the development of the theory (in Chapter 7 of his Principles of Political Economy, 1817),James Mills and Robert Torrens produced similar ideas. The theory states that all parties maximize benefit in an environment of unrestricted trade, even if absolute advantages in production exist between the parties.In contrast to Mercantilism, the first systematic body of thought devoted to international trade, emerged during the 17th and 18th centuries in Europe. While most views surfacing from this school of thought differed, a commonly argued key objective of trade was to promote a "favorable" balance of trade, referring to a time when the value of domestic goods

Page | 48 IMS , LUCKNOW UNIVERSITY , LUCKNOW

exported exceeds the value of foreign goods imported. The "favorable" balance in turn created a balance of trade surplus.

Mercantilists advocated that government policy directly arrange the flow of commerce to conform to their beliefs. They sought a highly interventionist agenda, using taxes on trade to manipulate the balance of trade or commodity composition of trade in favor of the home country.

BARRIERS FOR EXPORTS


Trade barriers are generally defined as government laws, regulations, policy, or practices that either protect domestic products from foreign competition or artificially stimulate exports of particular domestic products. While restrictive business practices sometimes have a similar effect, they are not usually regarded as trade barriers. The most common foreign trade barriers are government-imposed measures and policies that restrict, prevent, or impede the international exchange of goods and services.

Strategic

International agreements limit trade in, and the transfer of, certain types of goods and information e.g. goods associated with weapons of mass destruction, arms and torture. Examples include Nuclear Suppliers Group - limiting trade in nuclear weapons and associated goods (currently only 45 countries participate).

Tariffs

A tariff is a tax placed on a specific good or set of goods exported from or imported to a country, creating an economic barrier to trade.

Usually the tactic is used when a country's domestic output of the good is falling and imports from foreign competitors are rising, particularly if there exist strategic reasons for retaining a domestic production capability.

Some failing industries receive a protection with an effect similar to a subsidies in that

Page | 50 IMS , LUCKNOW UNIVERSITY , LUCKNOW

by placing the tariff on the industry, the industry is less enticed to produce goods in a quicker, cheaper, and more productive fashion. The third reason for a tariff involves addressing the issue of dumping. Dumping involves a country producing highly excessive amounts of goods and dumping the goods on another foreign country, producing the effect of prices that are "too low

Subsidies

To subsidize an industry or company refers to, in this instance, a governmental providing supplemental financial support to manipulate the price below market value. Subsidies are generally used for failing industries that need a boost in domestic spending. Subsidizing encourages greater demand for a good or service because of the slashed price.

The effect of subsidies deters other countries that are able to produce a specific product or service at a faster, cheaper, and more productive rate. With the lowered price, these efficient producers cannot compete. The life of a subsidy is generally short-lived, but sometimes can be implemented on a more permanent basis.

Advantages of exporting
Ownership advantages are the firm's specific assets, international experience, and the ability to develop either low-cost or differentiated products within the contacts of its value chain. The locational advantages of a particular market are a combination of market potential and investment risk. Internationalization advantages are the benefits of retaining a core competence within the company and threading it though the value chain rather than obtain to license, outsource, or sell it. In relation to the Eclectic paradigm, companies that have low levels of ownership advantages either do not enter foreign markets. If the company and its products are equipped with ownership advantage and internalization advantage, they enter through low-risk modes such as exporting.Exporting requires significantly lower level of investment than other modes of international expansion, such as FDI. As you might expect, the lower risk of export typically results in a lower rate of return on sales than possible though other modes of international business. Exporting allows managers to exercise operation control but does not provide them the option to exercise as much marketing control. An exporter usually resides far from the end consumer and often enlists various intermediaries to manage marketing activities.

Page | 52 IMS , LUCKNOW UNIVERSITY , LUCKNOW

Disadvantages of exporting

For Small-and-Medium Enterprises (SME) with less than 250 employees, selling goods and services to foreign markets seems to be more difficult than serving the domestic market. The lack of knowledge for trade regulations, cultural differences, different languages and foreign-exchange situations as well as the strain of resources and staff interact like a block for exporting. Indeed there are some SME's which are exporting, but nearly two-third of them sells in only to one foreign market.[17] The following assumption shows the main disadvantages:

Financial management effort: To minimize the risk of exchange-rate fluctuation and transactions processes of export activity the financial management needs more capacity to cope the major effort

Customer demand: International customers demand more services from their vendor like installation and startup of equipment, maintenance or more delivery services.

transparency. The vendor is in duty to follow the real-time demand and to submit all transaction details.

Management mistakes: The management might tap in some of the organizational pitfalls, like poor selection of oversea agents or distributors or chaotic global organization.

In exports process, companies get some incentives from the government of the countries for promoting the exports and for saving the duties which are charged at the time of exports and imports.

Exports incentive is EPCG i.e. Exports Promotion Capital Goods.

Page | 55 IMS , LUCKNOW UNIVERSITY , LUCKNOW

INTRODUCTION OF EPCG
The scheme allows import of capital goods for pre-production, production and post production (including CKD/SKD thereof as well as computer software systems) at 5% Customs duty subject to an export obligation equivalent to 8 times of duty saved on capital goods imported under EPCG scheme to be fulfilled over a period of 8 years reckoned from the date of issuance of license. Capital goods would be allowed at 0% duty for exports of agricultural products and their value added variants. However, in respect of EPCG licenses with a duty saved of Rs.100 crore or more, the same export obligation shall be required to be fulfilled over a period of 12 years. In case CVD is paid in cash on imports under EPCG, the incidence of CVD would not be taken for computation of net duty saved provided the same is not Cenvated . The capital goods shall include spares (including refurbished/ reconditioned spares) , tools, jigs, fixtures, dies and moulds. EPCG licence may also be issued for import of components of such capital goods required for assembly or manufacturer of capital goods by the licence holder. Second hand capital goods without any restriction on age may also be imported under the EPCG scheme. Spares (including refurbished/ reconditioned spares), tools, refractory, catalyst

Page | 56 IMS , LUCKNOW UNIVERSITY , LUCKNOW

and consumable for the existing and new plant and machinery may also be imported under the EPCG scheme . However, import of motor cars, sports utility vehicles/ all purpose vehicles shall be allowed only to hotels, travel agents, tour operators or tour transport operators whose total foreign exchange earning in current and preceding three licensing years is Rs 1.5 crores. However, the parts of motor cars, sports utility vehicles/ all purpose vehicles such as chassis etc cannot be imported under the EPCG Scheme.

EPCG for Projects


An EPCG license can also be issued for import of capital goods for supply to projects notified by the Central Board of Excise and Customs under S.No 441 of Customs Exemption Notification No 21/2002 dated 01.03.2002 wherein the basic customs duty on imports is 10% with a CVD of 16%. The export obligation for such EPCG licenses would be eight times the duty saved. The duty saved would be the difference between the effective duty under the aforesaid Customs Notification and the concessional duty under the EPCG Scheme.

Eligibility
The scheme covers manufacturer exporters with or without supporting

manufacturer(s) / vendor(s), merchant exporters tied to supporting manufacturer(s) and service providers.

Page | 57 IMS , LUCKNOW UNIVERSITY , LUCKNOW

Conditions for import of Capital Goods


Import of capital goods shall be subject to Actual User condition till the export obligation is completed.

Replacement

of

Capital

Goods

The Capital Goods imported under the scheme and found defective or otherwise unfit for use may be re-exported and Capital Goods in replacement thereof be imported under the scheme. In such cases, while allowing re-export, the Customs shall recredit the duty benefit availed which can be debited again at the time of import of such replaced Capital Goods.

Extension

In

Export

Obligation

If the EPCG license holder has not utilized the full or utilized in excess, the CIF value of the license for import/ indigenous procurement of capital goods allowed therein, his export obligation shall stand reduced/ enhanced on prorate basis with reference to the actual utilization of the license. In such cases where the CIF value actually utilized is more than the CIF value covered by the license, the license holder shall furnish additional fee to cover the excess CIF value of imports affected subsequently.

Page | 58 IMS , LUCKNOW UNIVERSITY , LUCKNOW

Indigenous Sourcing Of Capital Goods


a. The EPCG license holder intending to source capital goods

indigenously, shall make a request to the licensing authority for invalidation of the EPCG license for direct import. The EPCG license holder shall also give the name and address of the person from whom he intends to source the capital goods. b. On receipt of such request, either at the time of issuance of license or

subsequently, the licensing authority shall make the license invalid for direct import and issue an invalidation letter, in duplicate, to the EPCG license holder. The licensing authority shall simultaneously grant permission to the EPCG license holder to procure the capital goods indigenously in lieu of direct import. c. The indigenous manufacturer intending to supply capital goods to the

EPCG license holder, may apply to the licensing authority in the form given in Appendix-10B along with the documents prescribed therein for import of components required for the manufacture of such capital goods. The indigenous manufacturer may alternatively apply for Advance License for deemed export in terms of paragraph 6.9 of the Policy for import of such inputs as required for the manufacture of capital goods for supply to the EPCG license holder .

STATEMENTS OF HYPOTHESIS

Hypothesis may be defined as a proposition or a set of proposition set forth as an explanation for the occurrence of some specified group of phenomena either asserted merely as a provisional conjecture to guide some investigation or accepted as highly probable in the light of established facts.

Statements of hypothesis for this report are as follows:

Using the right type of export procedure helps in increasing the sales of goods in foreign market.

Increase in sales does not have any relation with the export procedure of the company.

RESEARCH DESIGN

The formidable problem that follows the tasks of defining the research problem is the preparation of the design of the research project, popularly known as the research design. Decisions regarding what, when, how much, by what means concerning an inquiry or a research study constitute a research design.

A research design is the arrangement of the arrangement of conditions for collection and analysis of data in a manner that aims to combine relevance to the research purpose with economy in procedures.

In fact, the research design is the conceptual structure within which research is conducted; it constitutes the blueprint for the collection, measurement and analysis of data. As such the design includes an outline of what the researcher will do from writing the hypothesis and its operational implications to the final analysis of data.

RESULTS
1. Comparison between domestic market sales and foreign market sales shows that exports slope has been lowered down while the domestic demand is increasing. 2. Exports processes also have an effect on sales of the company products in the foreign market. 3. Each company and every country has its own rules and clauses of doing business so if the customer feels that clauses of the seller are feasible so the customer will go for that product. 4. Now a days, company have to give the insurance certificate to the buyer company just to make sure that if any damages are caused while shipment so that price can be regained. 5. Company has to give a set of documents at the time of shipment for the custom department. 6. Finance department has to send the a set of documents to negotiating bank and one set for the foreign bank as per the documents asked in L/C. 7. In L/C, there is a date before which the finance department of the seller company has to send the documents to the bank.

Suggestions
After going through all the process of exports, there are parts on which there is an immediate need of giving an attention, and according to whole procedure following are some suggestions which can be applied to improve the exports chain of sales: 1. Documents should be prepared carefully according to the L/C (Letter of credit) so any discrepancy can be avoided. 2. Documents should be send SGS Office just after inspection of products which are to be exported by the inspecting officer, so the notified document can come to the company back and then the documents can be send to the bank. 3. Every country ask for the different kind of certificates which should be given to the buyer company with the documents of exports. 4. Company should keep to customer choice, need and demand at the top of their job as when the customer will be satisfied so then only exports of goods will increase. 5. All the process should be scheduled properly and there should be good coordination between marketing, finance and stores-production department

Summary & Conclusion


In the whole exports process, we have seen that all the departments of an organization are inter-related. Finance department prepares the whole documents for the exports to be made by the company. Documents for exports are prepared on the basis letter of credit (L/C) issued by the bank. Firstly marketing department brings the Performa invoice after the mutual agreement with the customers to know their actual requirement of product in the written form. A foreign bank open an L/C for the buyer bank in which all the details of order are mentioned. Then that L/C is sent to the seller company. Finance department prepares the invoice and packing list as the initial step of documentation according to the Performa invoice and the Letter of credit (L/C). If there is any amendment in the details mentioned in P.I. (Performa invoice) and details mentioned in Letter of credit, so it should be immediately reported to the customer for avoiding any discrepancy. Prices of products mentioned in invoice should be noted in SAP software of that particular company whose codes are given by marketing department, so these prices can get noted in books of accounts of the company.
