INDUSTRY PROFILE
HISTORY AND GROWTH OF THE TEXTILE INDUSTRY IN INDIA:
The Indian textile industry has a great legacy, which is perhaps unmatched in the history
of India’s industrial development. India’s textile industry evolved and developed at a very early
stage and its manufacturing technology was amongst the best. Prior to colonization, India’s
manually operated textile machines were among the best in the world, and served as a model
for production of the first textile machines in newly industrialized Britain and Germany. Indian
textiles were sought after for their finesse, quality and design. According to Chouta-Kuan, the
Chinese observer preference was given to the Indian weaving for its and delicacy’ Prestige
trade textiles such as Patola from Patna and Ahmedabad, coast were sought after by the
Malaysian royalty and wealthy traders of the Philippines. Textiles have historically formed an
important component of India’s exports. Marco Polo’s records show that Indian textiles used
to be exported to China and South-East Asia. Textiles have also comprised a significant portion
of the Portuguese trade with India.
The attractiveness of the fast dyed, multi-colored Indian prints on cotton (chintz) in
Europe led to the formation of the London East India Company in 1600, followed by Dutch
and French counterparts. By the late 1600s there was overwhelming demand for their
governments to ban the import of these cottons from India. The legacy of the Indian textile
industry stemmed from its wealth in natural resources silk, cotton and jute. The textile industry
stemmed from its wealth in natural resources silk, cotton and jute, the technology used was
superior and the skills of the weavers gave the finished product a most beautiful and ethnic
look. The Indian textile industry with such a great pedigree could have gone only on way from
here. But same did not happen.
GARMENT PRODUCTS EXPORTED FROM INDIA
India is known as a GROUP II country which exports simple, low value products with low to
medium price range like basic woven tops (Ladies blouses, Men’s shirts, T-shirts) and a small
quantity of trousers, skirts, jackets/coats, ladies dresses. Indian apparel is made mainly with
cotton fabric having different and small production of wool and blended garments.

GROWTH AND PROSPECTS OF THE INDUSTRY:
Information revolution promises to bring the world closer to cohesion. In the emerging
face of fast moving information, technological transfer is bound to take place at a higher speed.
As the International borders blur supply Chain Management and Information
Technology take a crucial role in Apparel manufacturing. Global partners in the clothing supply
chain are exchanging information electronically, thus the need for Indian Clothing Industry to
spruce up.
Upcoming technologies for mass customization such as three dimensional non contact
body measurement and digital printing ought to be discussed thoroughly and implemented fast.
This mass customization shall be successful for meeting unpredictable demand levels, for
luxury goods, uncertain customer wants and for heterogeneous demand. It is to be noted that
mass customization is different from mass production.
The future requires generation of real value service for the customers, comprehensive
study of multifaceted and multi-layered supply chain, and global integration of supply system
in a cost and time effective manner. Inventory planning, sales forecasting, manufacturing
strategy, distribution network and transportation management are some of the areas which need
improvement. The economic scene of US and its trade partners need to be eyed carefully if
India is to survive in the faster and throat cut competition of 21st
century.
As well as the appreciation of the rupee against the dollar, India’s exports are being hit
by increasing competition from China. The effects of a weakening dollar are having less impact
however, on neighboring Pakistan, Bangladesh and Srilanka, which are emerging competitors
to the India in the international textile and garment market.
MAJOR PLAYERS IN THE INDUSTRY:
 Raymond group of Companies.
 Nitisun Fabs.
 AS Internationals.
 Gokaldas Companies.

CHALLENGES OF THE INDUSTRY:
 The industry is back loaded with technological obsolescence and sub-scale of
operations.
 Indian industry is had been plagued skilled labour problems.
 Lack of modernization.
 Cotton apparels constitute major part of India’s apparel exports, although cotton
appears to be out thing in current global markets.

2. Pilot run
3. Bulk stock
1. Size Set:
The buyers is ask for a sample piece, which is done by the company, if the sample piece
is accepted by the buyers, then the order is placed for a quantity of a garment it normally
specified a quantity of each size and colours, the sizes will be a follows, S, M, XL, XXL.
2. Pilot Run:
After the sample is accepted by the buyers, Pilot run will be done. Pilot run means
some quantity of production will be done within the total quantity.
PLANNING INCHARGE
P.A. (C FLOOR)
P.A. (B FLOOR)P.A. (A FLOOR)

For example: there will be the 20,000 order in that, the company will release only 3000
productions to know the allotment of manpower, machine, time, materials and how the output
is coming and if there is any alteration/correction has to be done in that, it will be done.

there is a planning assistant to give proper information.
3.3 PRODUCTION DEPARTMENT
Garments are shaped and formed in three ways. Materials formed to a form fabric pieces
cut to shape and assembled by bonding and pieces cut to shape and sew. The first two methods
are used to a limited degree. Sewing garment pieces together with thread formed into stitches
and seams is the most used method at this time.
Fabric goes through 3 major processes before becoming a garment they are:
1. Cutting
2. Sewing
3. Finishing
This company has maintaining 3 production Batches in a single roof that is A, B, and C each

FABRIC SECTION:
In the fabric section the fabrics are received from main go down in roll form or in a
taka form. This section has got its own standard operation procedure, according to which the
process follows. The Fabric bale is checked by a fabric checker using 4.2 systems. Checkers
has to fill the ‘Piece goods quality control inspection report according to the inspection. Each
department has an ‘Hourly production Board’ which helps in recording the production rate for
IE people.

SOP (STANDARD OPERATION PROCEDURE) OF FABRIC SECTION:
 Fabric bale check is done by fabric checker using 4.2 systems.
 Total acceptable point given is 30 point for a length of 100 meters, if it is exceeds 30
points for a length of 100 meters, and the whole taka will be rejected.
 Fabrics are separated according to the shades by using shade bands.
 Checked fabrics are stored according to width wise and shade wise and it will stack
accordingly.
 Shrinkage test is done for the received fabric on random basis.
 Pies good quality control inspection report has to be maintained.

The defects of fabric as follows:
 Hole
 Knot
 Stain
 Flooding marks
 Forge in yarn
 Pick sang
 Miss line
 Broken filament
GRADING:
Grading of a pattern is a science. This subject can be under taken after having learnt the drafting
of pattern requires knowledge of human proportions. Accuracy of the diagram is the most
essential thing in factories. Grading of pattern is adopted in factories and in wholesale of
garment manufacturers to obtain different sized patterns.
Grading of a paper patterns means, obtaining pattern for different actual calculations
involved in establishing those patterns. But the shape and curve of the pattern is maintained

proportionally. Before grading a medium sized pattern must be cut accurately. Grading of a
pattern is generally applicable in regular figures. When the measurements are proportionally
increased or decreased according smaller to larger sizes.
DIGITIZING PATTERNS:
Most of the companies using CAD & CAM system for pattern cutting they cut their
pattern for a design manually. Therefore to grade the pattern on the system of perimeter of the
pattern has to be fed into computers by digitizing the contour.
However the grade points and the grade rule number can be input at the same time.
Pattern is placed on the digitizer and the pattern profile is entered into computer by use of a
cursor. The centre of the cross hairs of the cursor is placed on points on points to be recorded.
These points are grade points and other point defines the curves or corners. When a cursor
button is pressed, signals are sent to the computers which are then translated into numerical
record of the information for the piece. The cursor has number of button which allows the
appropriate grade rule numbers to be “Typed” into the system on the relevant points as the
pattern profile is digitized.
MARKER PLANNING:
The industry was always paid great attention to marker planning, because when the
cutting room cut the fabric means it spend around half of the companies turn over. In this
section supervisor allot the work to vary operators to develop the marker planning. The entire
component patterns are should be correctly placed on the marker plan with regards to the grain
line direction indicated on the gap paid adjust the small component pattern. If it is satisfied,
paid the marker efficiency then making on the cloth with using by marker chalk.
MAIN REQUIREMENT OF MARKER PLAN:
 The nature of the fabric and result in the finished garment.
 The requirement of quality in cutting.
 The requirement of production planning.
 The design characteristics of the finished garment.
 Symmetry or asymmetry (one way or either way).
 Pattern alignment in relation to the grain of the fabric.

 Fabric requirement.
 All the detail of cutting.
 Production planning requirement.
The CAD planner sheet is given to the operator and accordingly the paper patterns are
placed on the lay as per the CAD planning sheet. When the entire marker is placed over the
brown sheet then it is given to the cutting section to placed over the fabric and cut according
to the pattern done in the brown sheet.
EMBROIDERY SECTION:
In embroidery section, embroidery is done by according to the customer order. The most
intricate embroideries can be executed by world class latest computerized machines, because
whatever the design is given by customer first it will feed into the computer, and then the
employees adjust all embroidery machines and the fabric where the machine required to do a
embroidery, after adjusting everything employee will give ok to the computer. Then the
embroidery machines start its work.

SEWING SECTION:
The objectives of sewing are the construction of seas, which combine the required
standards of appearance and performance with an appropriate level of economy in production.
Assuming that the fabric is sew able and suitable for garment, the achievements, at an
economical level of the various requirement of appearance and performance of seams, both
initially and during use, is the result of the selection of five factors during manufacturing.
 The seam and stitch type.
 The Sewing machine feeding mechanism which moves the fabric, the needle and
enables a succession of stitches to be formed.
 The needle which inserts the thread into the fabric.
 The thread which forms the stitch which either holds the fabric together neatens it or
decorates it.
A seam is a joint consisting of a sequence of stitches uniting two or more pieces of material
and is used for assembling parts in the production of sewn items.

SEWING MACHINE FEEDING MECHANISM:
To achieve the objectives of good appearance and performance in seams, correct and
even stitch length is essential, along with fabric joins which are either smooth and unobtrusive
or evenly eased or gathered, according to the requirement of fit and style. In the construction
of seams and the perforation of stitches that holds them together, these requirements are
achieved by means of a mechanism that feeds the fabric past the needle. There are various
types of feeding mechanism that can be used for different requirement of seaming.
Industrial sewing machines are classified according to their intended use and the means
of forming stitches. A stitch can be defined as “One unit of conformation resulting from one
or more strands or loops of thread inters looping, intra looping or passing through material”.
MACHINES USER FOR SEWING SECTION:
 Buttoning machine
 Kansai machine
 Pat lock machine
 Shad stitch machine
 Chine stitch machine
 Welt pocket machine
 Three needle machine
 Embroidery machine
SEAM DEFECTS:
 Incorrect or uneven width of seam which is due to mishandling of components by the
operator.
 Irregular or incorrect shape of sewing line in case of top stitches due to incorrect
handling or badly shape guide.
 Insecure back stitches are generally taking place due to skip stitching.

ASSEMBLY DEFECTS:
 During stitching, parts or panels are assembled together.
 Finishing components should be attached in correct shape and size.
 Parts components which get damaged in previous operation should repair before assembly.
 Interlining incorrectly positioned, twisted, pleated should be avoided.
 Lining too full or too light showing below the garment should be avoided.
MODES OF STITCHING DEFECTS:
 Raw edge seam
 Main label cross
 Label pip out
 Run off stitch
 Uneven width
 Loose stitch
 Uneven SPI(STITCHES PER INCH)
 Skip stitch(d/n)
 Miss alignment
 Down stitch
 Piping stitch
 Parallel stitches
 Peep out(inside panel visible)
 Size label cross
 Over back tack
 Stay stir visible open seam

MEASURE INSPECTIONS:
After the garments come out of the sewing line, random inspection should be done for
measurements. Three pieces from each size and from sewing line is checked for confirmation
to the measurement specifications. Few critical measurements are taken. If two or three pieces
are exceeding the tolerance then three more pieces of that size should be measured. If it is not
a sewing problem but problem with the patterns then the appropriate authority is informed and
necessary steps taken to rectify the problem.

smooth operation and give good result when one boiler is shut down the second can be used
as a standby

POWER:
Power play is a very important role in processing unit. If power is not there machines
cannot start. Power backup is also important because processing has timings and if timings are
not maintained we will get consistence in processing. Generator is used as a power back up
source. There is three generator is used for power back up.
TRANSPORTATION:
Transportation system should be very smooth to enable garment to move to the required
units after processing and before processing.
CHEMICALS:

 In grey it turns grey fibre to cream white.
ANTI-BACK STAINING AGENT:
Anti-back staining agent is used on fabrics which loose colour in water, its property is to
protect fabric, natural looks.

WATER SOFTENER:
This chemical is used all over in the process. It reduces water impurities and provides
soft water for processing.
ACIDIC ACID:
This chemical is used to reduce the PH of water as you know that water all over used
is not same and not from government channels whereby PH of water is reduced to 50 to 150
GPH. In process water plays very important role. If water is soft and the PH value is maintained
we can get consistence in processing of the garment.
DETERGENTS:
Detergents are using for minute marks, which can be washing easily.
DE-SIZING AGENTS:
De-sizing agents are used for removing dye starch, impurities in the fabrics, to support
de-sizing in the process. There are other chemicals which has been widely used are,
 Wetting agent
 Lubricating agent
 Anti-back stain agent.
This supporting chemicals helps the fabric to soften, give viscosity to the fiber penetration
of other chemical used is easy.
PACKING:
Packing impressing making section and gives finishing touch up and plays a vital role.

3.8 QUALITY ASSURANCE (QA) AND
TOTAL QUQLITY MANAGEMENT (TQM)
Successful quality management requirement requires an orientation towards quality
that permeates the entire organization. Many psychological and emotional as well physical
and mechanical factors contribute to the production of high-quality goods. Top executives
must establish quality management as an ongoing part of the organization and provides an
equipment, supplies and personnel and budget its existence. Continual improvement in quality
comes only with the commitment of managers and employees to consistent, high-quality
performance in all aspects of the business.
Firms that have adopted this total concept of quality often use the terms. Quality
Assurance (QA) or Total Quality Management (TQM). The term QA is used throughout this
discussion. Under a QA system, evaluation of conformance to standards involves performance
of all the company’s divisions as well as the products and services that are produced by the
firm. It is recognized that production of quality products and services that are produced by the
firm. It is recognized that production of quality products depends on the quality consciousness
of the entire organization including merchandising, marketing, finance, operations and
production. Employee involvement throughout the firm is normally a part of a QA strategy.
Employees receive training on how to identify causes of product defects and how to resolve
the problem so defects do not continue to occur. Quality control (QC), a more limited form of
quality management, is the process of assuring that product is made according to the standards.
QC activities tend to the focus directly on the production process rather than on quality as a
responsibility of the entire firm.

SWOT ANALYSIS
SWOT analysis is a framework for identifying and analyzing the internal and external factors
that can have an impact on the viability of a project, product, place or person. A SWOT analysis
is a structured planning method used to evaluate the strengths, weakness, opportunities and
threats involved in a project or in a business venture. A SWOT analysis can be carried out for
a product, place, industry or person. It involves specifying the objective of the business venture
or project and identifying the internal and external factors that are favorable and unfavorable
to achieve that objective. Some authors credit SWOT to Albert Humphrey, who led a
convection at the standard Research Institute in the 1960s and 1970s using data from fortune
500 companies. However, Humphrey himself does not claim the creation of SWOT, and the
origins remain obscure. The degree to which the internal environment of the firm matches with
the external environment is expressed by the concept of strategic fit.
