INTRODUCTION

The sugar industry occupies a major portion in the

organized industries of India Sugar is essential product in India. Considerable quantity of sugar is produced since old days. India produces white sugar, Khandasari, and Jiggery. There are about 493 sugar industries working throughout the country. Among them 152 are in private sector, 271 in co-operative sector and remaining 70 are in public sector. In KARNATAKA state there are about 40 sugar industries which are established. Out of 40, 20 are in private sector, 18 are in co-operative sector and remaining 2 are in public sector.

INDUSTRY PROFILE
A sweet white or brownish yellow crystalline substance, of a sandy or

granular consistency, obtained by crystalizing the evaporated juice of certain plants, as the sugarcane sorghum, beet, root, sugar maple etc;

It is thought that it cane sugar was first used by man in Polynesia from where it spread to India. In 510 BC the emperor Darius of what then Persia invaded India where he found the reed which gives honey without bees. The secret of cane sugar, as with many other of mans discoveries, was kept a closely guarded secret whilst the finished product was exported for a rich profit.
AD that led to a breaking of the secret. When they invaded Persia in 642 AD they found sugar cane being grown and learn how sugar was made. As their expansion continued they established sugar production in other lands that they conquered including North Africa and Spain.

It was the major expansion of the Arab peoples in the seventh century

INDIAN SUGAR INDUSTRY

India is the only country in the world that produces plantation white

sugar. All other countries are producing either raw sugar or refined sugar or both. Thus the processing capacities are quite different and so also is the quality of sugar.
Sugar production commenced in 1920's but it got industry status in

late 20's/early 30's when India had 29 sugar mills producing just 100,000 tons of sugar. The industry facing competition from imported sugar sought tariff protection. Sugar production picked up under the Sugar Industry Protection Act passed in 1932 and country became self sufficient in 1935. Also cane-pricing act was enforced to provide good cane price to farmer. This was followed by land reforms putting ceiling on land holdings to protect small farmers, formation of cane grower co-operatives and setting up of sugar mills jointly with farmers called as co-operative mills on ownership and sharing basis. Today this sector produces 60% of country's production.

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY The objectives of the study are: To study the overall organizations process and the issues faced by Marketing department. To understand the satisfaction level of employees in the production department LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
All possible efforts have been made to arrive at the final stage of

Internship report and the study is limited to production department

 In DSCL the major production is sugar. The company has to produce type

of sugar. They are,

Crystallized sugar

In the form of dry, crystallized sugar crystals (the colour being due to the presence of impurities) obtained form the evaporation of clarified sugar cane juices imported for processing into refined sugar, this product is not sold to customers because it does not meet Canadian standards for health and hygiene.

The chief by products of sugar manufacturing are,

Bagasse Molasses Press mud

BAGASSE
is used as a fuel in the sugar boilers. Excess Bagasse finds use as a raw material in paper manufacture.

Bagasse is the byproduct left behind after crushing of sugar cane. It

MOLASSES Molasses is a byproduct of sugar refining chiefly used for alcohol

production the entire molasses output is routed to the distillery unit and acetic acid plant.
PRESS MUD Press mud is the byproduct generated by cane juice filtration during

sugar manufacture currently press mud is used as a fertilizer in sugarcane cultivation. Distillery effluents are mixed with press mud that comes from sugar factory to make bio fertilizers a substitute for chemical fertilizer.Full exploitation of these potentials would besides significantly contributing to the energy of the country and there by immensely benefiting sugar cane formers.

SWOT ANALYSIS

Strengths: 1. It is located in a place where good infrastructure is available. The company concentrated towards the quality of the product. Adoption of new technology by the company. Good sources of raw materials. High production efficiency. In house power generation. Strong financial position. 2. Excellent relationships with farmers, employees and dealers.

3.Company giving subsides to the farmers.

4.Extensive network for sugarcane collection. 5.Good product quality. Weakness

1. The company needs improvement and should concentrate on timely customer services.
2. Delay in payment 3. Low labour turnover. 4. The company has to focus on sales and marketing.

5. The promotion procedure in the organization is too rigid

 OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS

Opportunities 1. During the ensuring year 2008-09 depends on the time actions and

encouraging policies which are going to be taken on adopted by the central government. 2. The sugar industries are free to export the sugar without the prior approval of the central government. 3. The central government measure of compulsory blending of 10% ethanol in the petrol is a big boom to the sugar factories. This is to create a bright future for the sugar industries in future. Threats 1. The Production of sugar depends on rainy season. 2. Stiff competition from other sugar industries. 3. Government intervention. 4. Open market system for distillery products 5. Over production by all companies, sometimes the quality is limited.

AREA OF THE PROBLEM

STUDY OF OVERSTOCK AT DSCL

The problem identified in DSCL was Overstock of sugar in the production department in coordination with logistics department. This situation gave me a way to understand the issues pertaining to inventory turnovers.
CAUSES FOR OVERSTOCK Seasonal cultivation. Lorry strikes. Local competition from jaggery High price of sugar compared to imported sugar.

Heavy competition from foreign companies.

Due to globalization and liberalization. Heavy exercise duty on production. Heavy custom duty on Export

 SUGGESTIONS Avoid seasonal cultivation. Face the local competition of Jaggery.

In order to avoid heavy cost of production the company can adopt

latest technology
To maintain a strong channels of distribution. To adopt just in time policy.

CONCLUSION

Finally to conclude, I would like to present the following factors as part of my learning experience at d s c l. Company has excellent infrastructure with various buildings, new plants, transportation system & various other facilities. Corporate culture amongst the employees is excellent irrespective of their cadre and their designation. Excellent learning center, which is having good collection of books, journals and reports. Excellent environment to work with committed employees. Finally, a very good experience, which led me to compare `theoretical Learning in the classroom to the working of an organization.
