Sick industries: The reasons and remedies for it (A case study in Bangladesh)Masum Hussain
Small industrial units are the seedbed on industrial development in underdeveloped economy for its less capital involvement and more employment generation capability. But this sector cannot contribute expectedly for infection to sickness that ultimately prevents the entrepreneurial bases of economy. Sickness can be occurred in the inception period, in operation and /or in macro environment. Without the growth and development of entrepreneurship the development of country would always be unattained. It is a study through which we try to analyze the forces behind the spirit of entrepreneurship development. The study tried to explore the ambitions, compulsions, facilitations and expectations which lead them to industry, the idea generation process and motivators in that process of entrepreneurships and also the primary obstacles in entrepreneurships in Industrial estates. In this context an extensive survey is made and data have been collected from some entrepreneurs in five BSCIC industrial estate of Sylhet division in Bangladesh. From that study it is revealed that the leading ambition is making profits, compulsions are dissatisfaction in present job and unemployment and facilitating factors are technical skill and experience. The main source of idea is the entrepreneur himself and he is also the motivator in that process. Obstacle in emergence of entrepreneurship in industrial estates is revealed as the procedural hazards. Therefore it is suggested that proper counselling in presence of family members and minimizing the procedural hazards in facilitating supports should be emphasized in entrepreneurial development program. The problem of industries becoming sick, both in public and private sectors, has turned to be alarming in Bangladesh in recent years. Although the causes for closure or divestment might be many but in most of the cases continued loss played a major role. Thus the problem of industries becoming sick deserves to be treated more seriously at Government policy level as it is related to the national economy and development.

Myanmar, the Next Manufacturing Hub (focused on Special Economic Zones)Solidiance
Trade and investment liberalization, access to a large domestic and regional market, as well as abundant low cost labor make Myanmar attractive from a manufacturing perspective, but can Myanmar be the next China?
Solidiance further explores this topic in their latest white paper about Myanmar as the Next Manufacturing Hub. As the government is moving forward to increase share of industrials in the overall economy and boost exports to narrow the trade deficit as part of its 5 year plan.
However, infrastructure remains a key challenge and the government is now depending on the development of industrial and special economic zones (SEZ).
An environmental scanning report on ambuja cements
1. An Environmental
Scanning Report On
Cement Industry
Presented to- Professor Gurpartap Singh
Presented by- Tania Goel
Roll No- 1331878
2. Cement industry- Overview
• Today, the Indian cement industry is very large, second
only to China in terms of installed capacity, and has
grown at a very fast pace in recent years. The rate of
growth over the past 20 years has been phenomenal,
Since 1992 India's cement production has more than
quadrupled from around 50Mt/yr to 220Mt/yr in 2011.
• Although the Indian cement industry has some
multinational cement giants, like Holcim and Lafarge,
which have interests such as ACC, Ambuja Cement and
Lafarge Birla Cement, the Indian cement industry is
broadly home-grown.
3. Major Players
• The major domestic cement companies in India include Ultratech
Cement, Ambuja Cement, JK Cements, ACC Cement, Century
Cements, India Cements, Sanghi Cements, Dalmia Cements,
Saurashtra Cements and Madras Cements.
• With booming cement demand in India and abroad, many foreign
cement players are also establishing and expanding their presence in
India. The world’s top cement companies are present in India, namely
France's Lafarge, Holcim from Switzerland.
• Holcim, one of the largest global cement industry players, has
established its presence in India by buying a major stake in two
established brands of ACC and Ambuja Cements. Collectively, these
companies have the largest market share in India, close to 50% of the
total market size.
4. Policy and Promotion
Some of the policy measures adopted by the
Indian government to support and aid the growth
of the Indian cement industry include the
following:
• No custom duty on non-coking coal: In Budget
2012-13, the government has exempted non-
coking coal, one of the main raw materials for
cement production, from basic customs duty
(earlier at 5%). This will have a positive impact of
1-1.5% on the cement industry’s operating.
5. Market share of major participants
• Cement and Lafarge Birla Cement, the Indian cement industry is
broadly home-grown. Ultratech Cement, the country's largest firm
in terms of cement capacity, holds around 22% of the domestic
market, with ACC (50%-owned by Holcim) and Ambuja (50%-owned
by Holcim) having 15% and 13% shares respectively.
• Many of the remaining dozen top players are Indian and are (in
order of diminishing market share); Jaiprakash Associates (10%),
The India Cements Ltd (7%), Shree Cements (6%), Century Textiles
and Industries (5%), Madras Cements (5%), Lafarge (5%), Birla
Cement (4%) and Binani Cement (4%).
• Between them the top 12 cement firms have around 70% of the
domestic market. Around 100 smaller players produce and grind
cement on a wide range of scales but are often confined to small
areas
6. About Ambuja Cement Ltd.
• The Company’s first plant was set up at Ambuja Nagar
in the State of Gujarat. The commercial production of
its first plant with an installed capacity of 0.70mn
tonnes was started in the year 1986. In the last two
decades the Company has grown from a single plant
single location Company to a multi location entity with
an installed capacity of 13.3mn tonnes.
• Ambuja Cements Limited was earlier known as Gujarat
Ambuja Cements Limited (GACL). The company was set
up in 1986. In this short span Ambuja Cements has
achieved massive growth and presently, the total
cement capacity of the company is 16 million tonnes.
8. ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENTAL
FACTORS
• Its financial statements i.e balance sheet and profit and
loss, profits are increasing every year and its share price is
also high as compared to other cement industries and its
assets are also increased. It means that its financial
position is very strong as compared to others.
• From here we can analysis that its profits are increasing
year by year and it means that they are providing more to
GPI,with this our NPI will also be increase and overall
position of country will be better.
• From here we can analysis that if industry position is
strong then our country’s position will also be strong.
• It means it is beneficial for the people and country.
9. SOCIAL ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS
• This particular company is totally different from. On this case they really helped by
doing lot of social work like they putt off various health centers for the poor
people and provide Monetary help also to some reason.
• They also helped by providing education facilities to poor people like books etc.

• Ambuja cements industry is having good quality
machines to make their products and also they are
using latest technology machines. And their
technology is very effective that is implemented and
they also implanted modern technology like Inventory
Control system etc
13. ENVIRONMENTAL SCANNING REPORT
OF AMBUJA CEMENTS
• Environmental scanning is often defined as the
acquirement and usage of information from the
organization’s external environment. In the present day, the
external environment could not be completely ignored
because of the volatility of the environment and scanning
identifies an organization’s potential threats and
opportunities. The external environment of an organization
includes all the external factors which could influence the
decision making process. The external environment varies
for differing organizations and is usually dependent on the
organization size and industry.
• As above I have already explain each and every
environmental factor and it shows us how external
environmental factors effect Ambuja Cement industry.
15. Political Factors affecting Cement
Industry
• The price of cement is primarily controlled by the coal rates, power tariffs, railway tariffs,
freight, royalty and cess on limestone. Interestingly, government controls all of these prices.
• Government is also one of the biggest consumers of the cement in the country.
• Govt. of India plans to increase its investment in infrastructure to US $ 1 trillion in the
TwelfthFive Year Plan (2012-17) will lead to increase in the demand of cement.
• Infrastructure projects such as the dedicated freight corridors, upgraded new airports and
ports are expected to enhance the scale of economic activity, leading to a substantial
increase in cement demand furthermore.
• Most state governments, in order to attract investments in their respective states, offer Fiscal
incentives in the form of sales tax exemptions/deferrals. States like Haryana offer a freeze on
power tariff for 5 years, while Gujarat offers exemption from electric duty.
• Strict law & order conditions and political will of the leader of any state enhance
theconfidence of people living in the states as well as corporate to invest in that particular
state.
• The total Government levies and taxes , which include Royalty on Limestone, Royalty on
Coal,Electricity Duty, VAT/Sales Tax etc.,on cement constitute about 60% or more of the ex-
factoryprice of cement.
16. Economic Factors affecting Cement
Industry
• Currently, the industry is on the boom, with a lot of government infrastructure and housing
projects under construction. In spite of seeing a fall during 2008-09, the export segment of
the industry is expected to grow again on account of various infrastructure projects that are
being taken up all over the world and numerous outstanding cement plants coming up in
near future in the country.
• Over time more sophisticated and refined methodologies in connection with longer time
series were employed to study productivity change. The contribution of total factor
productivity to output growth was of primary interest to explain the continuously low
economic development.
• During that time, labor productivity as well as capital availability and use increased
considerably, while the overall growth rate of the economy stagnated at low levels.
• Concerned about the efficiency of resource use researchers started investigating
productivity growth and input factor substitutions for aggregate manufacturing as well as
various industries
17. Social Factors affecting Cement
Industry
• Usually, the cement industry in India consists of both the organized
sector and the unorganized sector.
• Organized sector comprises of the well-known cement
manufacturing companies while the main players of the
unorganized sector are the regional and local cement-producing
units in various states across the state.
• Indian consumers prefer buying branded cement like ULTRATECH,
JAYPEE CEMENT, LAFARGE CEMENT etc.
• It has been seen in the past, as well, that mini cement plants with
low brand value and image are not able to survive against the
cement giants.
• With a population of more than 100 billion people, it is expected
that cement industry will create another 25 lakhs jobs in the next
4-5 years.
18. Technological Factors affecting Cement
Industry
• From mining to production the entire process depends on technology.
• The Government of India plans to study and possibly acquire new technologies
from the cement industry of Japan.
• The government is discussing technology transfer in the field of energy
conservation and environment protection to help improve efficiency of the Indian
cement industry.
• At present 93% of the total capacity in the industry is based on modern and
environment-friendly dry process technology.
• There is tremendous scope for waste heat recovery in cement plants and thereby
reduction in emission level.
• One project for co-generation of power utilizing waste heat in an Indian cement
plant is being implemented with Japanese assistance under Green Aid Plan.
• The induction of advanced technology has helped the industry immensely to
conserve energy and fuel and to save materials substantially.
• Also, some cement plants have set up dedicated jetties for promoting bulk
transportation and export.
19. International Factors affecting Cement
Industry
• With the rapid growth rate of the Indian economy after the 1990s, the infrastructural
developments within the country has been tremendous.
• The increase in the construction activities has led to the increase in the demand for updated
quality building materials and other allied products.
• Cement being one of the major elements in the construction work, there is a growth in the
cement industry in India. The consumption of cement has increased in India by nearly 7.5%.
• With the globalization of Indian cement industry many foreign cement manufacturers are
engaging themselves in agreements and deals with their India counter parts to have a
share of the growth.
• Large cement players in India will use the acquisition route to enhance capacity and market
share. It is clear that smaller plants will not survive in the long term. The top five players
will hold 70-80 % of capacities and market in the next decade.
• There is an expectation that more global players would come into India as they would like
to get a foothold in the market as the demand will propel in the emerging economies.
• Acquisition appears a good route primarily because a Greenfield cement plant takes 3-4
years to build and another 3-4 years to break even at an operating level of even 70-75 %.
E.g.:- The acquisition of the Larsen & Toubro cement (ULTRATECH CEMENT LIMITED)
business by Grasim Industries Limited in 2003-04 is a case in point.
