14. External Environment Analysis
External Challenges
Failure of the government to form auto policy which expired in june 2012.
The company was in constant dialogue with GOP to redress several
taxation matters , review of the duties .
Launch of the New 11th generation toyota corolla
Suzuki’s agreement for sale of 50,000 Vehicles under ‘Apna Rozgar
Scheme’ of the Punjab Gov.
Govt decision to provide extra ordinary Tax concession to HEV( Hybrid
Eletric Vehicles) as a means to promoting fuel efficient technology failed to
provide significant merit
Local OEM’s who introduced the technology with After sales support had
no advantage to the policy
Commercial importers took full advantage of lower prices of used HEV’s.

The plant has a total land of 426,500 Sq M with covered
area of 45,000 Sq M
Comprises of Weld shop, Paint and Assembly shop
22 work stations in weld shop, 37 work stations in Paint
shop and 32 work stations in Assembly shop and 8 work
stations at final inspection
16. Toyota Production System
Guided Principles: Just-in-Time and JIDOKA.
JIT- Eliminating the need for maintaining large Inventories
(reducing financial Cost/inventory Cost)
JIDOKA-Work stops immediately whenever a problem
occurs (prevents defective items to proceed).
3M approach : Avoid Uneveness , waste ,overburden.
Tool: Yamazumi Chart ( measurement of time taken for
completing all activity)
20. As per results;
Enjoys Market share of 25% fy (2013-2014)
During FY 2012-13, Production plummeted due to impact of liberization of
Import policies by GOP. ( reduced customer on HEV)
Impact: Company posted a reduction in Net income by 21%
During revision of import Policy in FY 2013-14, meager improvement in
overall numbers. The key highlight was a better bottom line representing a
15% YoY growth in Net Income.
Net revenues showed a YoY decline of 11% in the same year.
Major setback to meet increased demand by customer due to inventory
backfill could not be materialized.
The assembly lines remained non-operational for 18 WD.
Impact: Shortfall of 1500 units of production and sales
21. Contd
a significant increase of 124% in fixed operational assets.
Impact : IMC can now enhance its production capacity.
No significant change found in company's inventory turnover
and debt collection period.
The overall assessment based on the IMC’s fundamentals
suggest that there is a significant impact of external and
economic factors like customer demand, changes in fuel
prices, fluctuation in local currency, law & order situation of
the country, government policies etc
