INTRODUCTION TO PROJECT
Diesel electric locomotives were introduced on Indian Railways in 1950's to exploit their versatility, better
hauling capabilities, low maintenance requirements and overall cost advantage as compared to steam
locomotives. Diesel Locomotive Works (DLW) was established in 1961 in collaboration with M/s ALCO, USA
in the ancient City of Varanasi to undertake indigenous manufacture of diesel electric locomotives for meeting
increasing transportation needs of Indian Railways.
Over the years, DLW's production has progressively increased and it produced 267 locomotives, in the
year 2011-12 as against 4 locomotives in the first year of its production in 1963-64.
ALCO locomotives are now almost fully indigenous. Through in house development efforts, the original
imported design has been made 7% more fuel-efficient and has also been successfully uprated to deliver about
30% more power, increasing it from 2600 HP to 3300 HP.
DLW is an ISO 9001:2008, ISO 14001:2004 and OHSAS 18001:2007 Certified Organization covering
Quality, Environment, Health& Safety Management Systems.

Marketing Division of DLW provides a single window service to our non-Railway customers. It deals with:
■ Sale of locomotives and spares to Non Railway Customers
■ Supply / Sale of DG sets and spares to Railways and Non Railway Customers
■ Single window services to customers
■ Export of locomotive through intermediaries like RITES and IRCON
■ Availing of credit under MODVAT ( MODIFIED VALUE ADDED TAX) scheme.
• MODVAT refers to an excise duty scheme introduced in 1986 for allowing relief to final manufacturers
on the excise duty borne by their suppliers for goods manufactured by them. It has now been replaced by
the CENVAT scheme. It applies to certain specific items and is meant to limit the cascading effect of
duty incidence on a number of goods where the MODVAT credit can be claimed on the purchase of raw
materials on which excise has been paid. This MODVAT credit can be used to set off the excise duty
payable on subsequent manufacture of goods.
• Settlement of warranty claims and addressing complaints
■ Analysis of failure reports of NRC and Export locomotives and initiation of corrective and preventive
actions
■ Payment of excise duty and CST /VAT on sale of excisable goods and settlement of disputed cases

1. PRE-SHIPMENT DOCUMENTATION:

goods to the transporters. In the case of Advance payment following documents come under Pre shipment
documents:-

along with the 30% of total Invoice value (in the case of advance payment) then after packing of goods, Packing
Slip is sent from the Packing Department, with that Slip ,Packing list is prepared in Commercial section.
After checking Packing List thoroughly, Invoice is prepared and then both Packing List as well as Invoice is
sent to buyer to get the remaining 70% of the payment. When they make total payment goods are sent to them.
In this procedure, first of all goods are handled over to the transporter. Then transporter gives whole goods to
Clearing Agent.
2. SHIPMENT DOCUMENTATION:
After taking over the whole goods by Clearing Agent, Shipment Procedure is started. If Consignment is going
to be exported by Sea, goods are sent from the company to Mumbai. If goods are to be shipped by Air then
goods are transported to Delhi Airport. Shipping Instruction (3 Copies) is sent to Clearing Agent which contains
the information about consignment. For e.g. Dimension of Cartons i.e. No. and Size of Cases, Detail of items,
Name of Transporter etc.
When goods are loaded on to the Ship/Aero plane Challan is provided by the owner of Ship/Plane. Challan,
Bill of Clearing agent (in the case of FoB), Invoice and ARE (Application for Removable of Excisable goods)
are sent to Buyer.
Terms of Delivery means in delivering the goods to the Buyer which cost will be included whether it will
include only cost of production or it will also include transportation costs. Mainly there are three terms of
Delivery:
• FOB (Free on Board):- It is also called as Freight on to-pay Basis that means freight charges will be
paid by Buyer.
• C.I.F. (Cost including Insurance & Freight):- It is also called as Freight on Pre-Paid Basis that
means Freight charges will be paid by Exporter and Goods will be insured.

MODES OF PAYMENT
There is a no. of different payment methods that can be used when importer deals with exporter. Mostly
three of them are used. Which are as follows?
DOCUMENTS AGAINST PAYMENT
LETTER OF CREDIT
DOCUMENTS AGAINST PAYMENT
The exporter makes the shipment and sends the shipping documents to the exporter’s bank for collection. The
bank then sends the shipping documents along with a collection letter to the importer’s bank, which then sends
57
58. `
a collection notice to the importer. The importer makes payment upon receiving the notice, and only after
payment the importer receive the original shipping documents with which they take the physical possession of
the goods.
The major advantage of the use of DP is the low cost as compared to use a Letter of Credit. But this is offset by
the risk that the importers sometimes reject the documents for some reasons (or when they are not in
order).Since the cargo has already been loaded (to generate the documents) exporters have little recourse against
the importer in case of non-payment. So a document against payment (DP) arrangement involves a high level of
trust between the exporters and importers.
LETTER OF CREDIT
A Letter of credit is very common and familiar document in setting payment between buyer and seller. It is a
signed instrument embodying an undertaking by the bank of the buyer to pay the seller a certain sum of money
on presentation of documents evidencing shipment of specified goods and subject to compliance with stipulated
terms and conditions. The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) has a published a set of universal
recognized guidelines governing the issue of a Letter of Credit in Uniform Custom and Practice of
Documentary Credit (UCPDC).
Following parties are involved in issuing a letter of credit:-
1. APPLICANT: - The firm asking for a Letter of Credit is applicant. Usually the applicant is importer
who is going to import goods but it is not in position to pay for the goods currently.
2. BENEFICIARY: - The firm named in a letter of credit as the firm to whom the bank is insuring
payment if the importer does not pay. Usually, the beneficiary of a letter of credit is the exporter.
3. ISSUING BANK: - It is that bank which provides the letter of credit to the importer. It has the
contractual obligation to pay the beneficiary (exporter) on the presentation of necessary documents by
them when importer is unable to pay.
4. ADVISING BANK: - In a Letter of Credit transaction, the bank that determines whether the issuing
bank is a legitimate bank and the terms of the Letter of Credit offered by the issuing bank on behalf of
the importer are appropriate. Generally, the advising bank is the exporter’s regular bank. But in some
cases the exporter’s bank will delegate this role to another bank which is more experienced.
58
59. `
LETTER OF CREDIT
(PAYMENT PROCEDURE)
The Letter of Credit (L/C) payment procedure is usually as follows:-
• The Importer applies to open the L/C to exporter through A bank that can open the L/C in their
country.
• The opening Bank will inform the exporter that L/C has been established.
• Exporter checks all the terms and conditions listed in the L/C. If all the terms and conditions are
acceptable the will arrange the shipment within the time specified in the Letter of Credit.
• After the goods are loaded onto the ship without any damage, the captain of the ship will issue
clean Bill of Lading to the exporter. With clean Bill of Lading only they can claim the ownership
of goods.
• Clean Bill of Lading and other relevant documents will be submitted to their bank to gather the
irrevocable Letter of Credit. It is an often used payment method. This is a formal payment
method that offers a lot of protection to the parties. In simple words, a Letter of Credit is a letter
written by the importer’s bank to the exporter. It verifies that the payment will be guaranteed
when bank is presented with concrete documents (Bill of Lading, Freight documents etc.).
Mostly Letters Of Credit are irrevocable once the importer has sent them.
• A Letter of Credit usually includes applicant (the importer), beneficiary (I/E agent), opening
bank, negotiating bank, specification and quantity of the goods, amount of money, loading port
and destination port, shipment date, the validity date of the L/C, terms and conditions agreed by

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
62
63. `
The project on Dlw Export procedure to Non-Railway Customer is based on Two Researches.
1). Exploratory research design &
2). Conclusive research design.
The approach of research was survey and instrument used was questionnaire for quantifying whether the
organization employees are very well aware and satisfied with the facilities provided by the DLW.
Before going through the questionnaire first one should understand the meaning of the terms used in the
project for better understanding of the project report. These are exploratory research and conclusive research,
sampling plan and reliability of the questionnaire.
WHAT IS EXPLORATORY RESEARCH?
Investigation into a problem or situation which provides insights to the researcher. The research is meant to
provide details where a small amount of information exists. It may use a variety of methods such as trial studies,
interviews, group discussions, experiments, or other tactics for the purpose of gaining information.
WHAT IS CONCLUSIVE RESEARCH?
conclusive research is meant to provide information that is useful in reaching conclusions or decision-making.
It tends to be quantitative in nature, that is to say in the form of numbers that can be quantified and
summarized. It relies on both secondary data, particularly existing databases that are reanalyzed to shed light
63
64. `
on a different problem than the original one for which they were constituted, and primary research , or data
specifically gathered for the current study.
WHAT IS SAMPLE?
Sample is defined as subgroup of elements of the population selected for participation in the study. Sample
characteristics, called Statistics, are then used to make inferences about the population parameters
SAMPLING PLAN;
There is no sampling plan as such as the study involved in understanding the various processes and analyzing
them. The study involved in the detail analysis of secondary data gather from various sources and there for no
sample size and plan has been considered.
Type of the Data
Sources of data: Data has been collected through literature survey and expert opinion. The part of data is
collected from various primary sources and secondary sources.
• Primary Data Sources – Information gathered through interview and discussing with departmental
Members.
• Secondary Data Sources – Past Data
• Type of Research – Exploratory & Conclusive Analysis
• Type of Sampling plan – No Sampling plan
- There is no sampling plan as such as the study involved in understanding the various processes and
analyzing them. The study involved in the detail analysis of secondary data gather from various sources
and there for no sample size and plan has been considered.

After completing my project I familiarize with DLW, and I get that diesel locomotive works is a famous
technological temple, which came in existence, in 1964 by Late Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri. DLW export to the
following countries like Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Angola, Tanzania, Vietnam,Sengal Mozambique,
Malaysia, Sudan, Myanmar etc.
There are many facilities for the employees as hospital, health club, sports club, school and college, sewing
center, technical training center etc. In short we can say that all the facility which the ordinary employee needed
is provided by welfare department and the entire employee are very well aware with welfare programmes. They
take advantage with programme in any form. Very few improvement but important improvement, which
mentioned above, is needed in welfare programmes, which make the employees more satisfied.
70
71. `
FINDINGS :
The above study helps to identify the positive and negatives of DLW, Varanasi. This is the major key
area the employees got benefited directly through direct & indirect way..
Although company is doing good at their business, as we can analysed from the above interpretation that
• Locomotive turn out is constantly increasing.
• Company is able to achieve its target
• And if we compare the the actual turnover in year 2003-2004 i.e. 558 with 2010-2011 i.e.
2024.38 which is more than double.
It shows that company is in its growth stage.
But on the other hand, during this study I found few negative points which I personally will that company
should rectify for the effective production system.
• The major problem that I found was Ineffective utilization of resources Company’s input are more
than requirement, employees were wasting spare parts of mass production , and no one was their to take
care of it, which may cause loss to company in near future.
• Excess wastage of raw material during transfer from one place to another.
• Absence of proper supply of required equipments, due to which company facing high lead time and turn
up time.
• They don’t have product inception process, during transportation or warehousing. Which me cause
question to their quality.
• There was no proper schedule for employees, they were not sincere during work hours.
• Employees were not cooperative and absence of proper coordination of work.
So, the company takes this study to rectify the problems in few above given areas areas due to which
production process get effected, So that company can play more better in upcoming future.
71
73. `
As I work n my project report. I feel that DLW is very prosperous and the facilities provided to their
employees here are very much satisfactory. But some suggestions.
Which in want to give are as follows?
1) The standard of hospital should he tried to improve.
2) Medical store facility should he provided in the campus of the hospital with large stock of medicine.
4) If lunch provided in DLW canteen it will also motives employees.
5) The crèche should also be provided by DLW welfare Department.
6) Welfare department should motivate the employees in such a manner that employee’s female member
most participate in women welfare programme.
7) The number of member of sports club and health club is very low so it can increase by the efforts of
welfare officers of DLW.
8) Always there should be good communication between welfare.
9) Department and employees.
10) All employees should be motivated to part in cultural programmes.
73
75. `
There is the possibility of ambiguous replies from the respondents which can give untrue or misleading
result.
Few people did not have the time to fill up or answer the Questionnaire.
The responses are quite objective in nature.
There was low rate of return of the dully filled in questionnaire due to the biasness of the respondents.
Few people were not responding as expected from them and they were considering survey a useless
activity.
