INDUSRTIAL PROFILE
ABOUT AYURVEDA
Ayurveda is the oldest India indigenous medicine system, probably

with its roots in the Indus Civilization. In the Vedic period, the osadhisukta of the
Rig-Veda is the oldest documented knowledge about plants and herbal medicines.
The term Ayus means duration or span of life, Veda means unimpeachable
knowledge. The common translation of the Ayurveda is science of life. The earlier
recorded knowledge about Ayurveda is found in the Rig-Veda and the
Atharvaveda, both of the second millennium BC. the Atharvaveda lists eight
divisions of Ayurveda; internal medicine surgery of head and neck,
ophthalmology, surgery, toxicology, psychiatry, pediatrics, gerontology or science
of rejuvenation and the science of fertility.
According to philosophical concepts on which Ayurveda is based, all

bodies-material, living, conscious and unconscious- are evolved out of prakriti by
the subtle influence of the purusa, the absolute or the primal self conscious
principle and every components of the human organism is created out of the
tathvas as evolved out of the prakriti.

In Ayurvedic medicine, health is defined as soundless of Sarrira, Manas

and Asthma. Each of these must be nurtured if the individual is to have good
health. Ayurveda is basically a humoural medical system and conceives of three
essential humors. The three humors are Vata, Pita; Kapha occasionally in the
surgical tradition a fourth humour-blood was also added.
AYURVEDIC MEDICINE INDUSTRY IN INDIA
Several thousand companies in India produce Ayurvedic medicines,

but most of them are quite small, including numerous neighborhood pharmacies
that compound ingredients to make their own remedies. It is estimated that the
total value of products from the entire Ayurvedic production in India is on the
order of one billion dollars. Less than o dozen major companies have dominated
the industry for decades, joined recently by few others that have followed their
lead, so that there are today 30 companies doing a million dollars or more per year
in business to meet the growing demand for Ayurvedic medicine. The products of
these companies are included within the broad category of “Fast Moving
Consumer Goods”. Most of the larger Ayurvedic medicine suppliers provide
materials other than Ayurvedic internal medicines, particularly in the areas of
foods and toiletries where there may be some overlap with Ayurveda such as
having traditional herbal ingredients in the composition of toiletries.
Thulasi has been used for thousands of years in Ayurveda for its diverse
healing properties. It is mentioned by Charaka in the Charaka Samhita, an ancient
Ayurvedic text. Thulasi is considered to be an adaptive balancing different
processes in the body, and helpful for adapting to stress. Marked by its strong
aroma and astringent taste, it is regarded in Ayurveda as a kind of “elixir of life”
and believed to promote longevity.

ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE
Organizational structure is a basic framework within which the

managers decision making behaviors takes place. Structure basically deals with
relationships. The structure of a system is the arrangement of its subsystems and
components at a given moment of time. Organization structure can be viewed as
established pattern of relationships among the components of the organization. it
refers to the differentiation and integration of activities and authority, role and
relationships in the organization. It is the pattern in which various parts or
components are interrelated or interconnected and also shows the relationships
among various activities and position. Since various persons hold these positions,
the structure is the relationship among people in the organization. Organization
structure is set forth initially by the design of the major components or subsystem.
It is the patterning of these relationships with some degree of permanency, which
is referred to as Organization structure.
Role of organization structure
Organization structure is capable of serving many functions at the

same time but cannot serve all the functions equally well over unlimited time.
Structure created for one purpose may not serve other purpose well. Therefore, it
is important for managers to determine the outcomes desired from organization
structure; and to match the organization with changing needs.
