INTRODUCTION ABOUT THE ORGANISATION & INDUSTRY

INTRODUCTION TO INTERNSHIP

Internship is one of the important part of academic path of VTU MBA which is designed for the students to
acquire field experience along with an opportunity to share their insights and to explore relationship between
their field work and academic preparation. It also prepares students in developing and carrying major
research projects. Internship provide practical knowledge about what they are going to do after completion
of the MBA degree. With this intension I started my Internship at DABUR INDIA LIMITED which belongs
to the Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG). My topic of study is Organizational study OF DABUR
INDIA LIMITED. I would like to extend my gratitude to DABUR INDIA LIMITED and each and every
person in the organization who allowed me to intern with them and also special thanks to my Internal Guide
of the Institution for helping me in gathering the data.

1.1 INTRODUCTION TO ORGANISATION STUDY

Organisation study refers to the study of organisation as a whole and getting adequate knowledge with
various departments in the organisation. An organisation is a social arrangement which pursues collective
goals, which controls its own performance, and which has a boundary separating it from its environment.
Organizational study involves careful study about how people inside the organization interact with one
another and how they can be made better to communicate their concerns. Various methods are used in
organizational studies and these include multiple regression, time series to name a few. Basically, it involves
the study of individual as well as group interaction inside an organization. There are many factors that come
into play when people interact with each other not just as individuals but as a team as well..

1.2 INTRODUCTION TO INDUSTRY – FMCG

Fast-Moving Consumer Goods are products that sell quickly at relatively low cost. These goods are also
called Consumer Packed Goods.

Fast Moving Consumer Goods is India’s fourth largest sector with household and personal care accounting
for 50 percent of FMCG sales in India. Growing awareness, easier access and changing lifestyles have been
the key growth drivers for the sector.The urban segment (accounts for a revenue share of around 55 percent)
is the largest contributor to the overall revenue generated by the FMCG sector in India. However, in the last
few years, the FMCG market has grown at a faster pace in rural India compared to urban India. Semi-urban

and rural segments are growing at a rapid pace and FMCG products account for 50 percent of the total rural
spending. Consumer goods are products purchased for consumption by the average consumer. They are
divided into three different categories: durable, nondurable goods, and services. Durable goods have a shelf
life of three years or more while nondurable goods have a shelf life of less than one year. Fast-moving
consumer goods are the largest segment of consumer goods. They fall into the nondurable category, as they
are consumed immediately and have a short shelf life.

FMCGs have a short shelf life because of high consumer demand or because they are perishable. These
goods are purchased frequently, are consumed rapidly, are priced low, and are sold in large quantities. They
also have a high turnover when they're on the shelf at the store.

Fast-moving consumer goods have such a high turnover rate, the market is not only very large, it is also very
competitive. Some of the world's largest companies compete for market share in this industry including
Tyson Foods, Coca-Cola, Unilever, Procter & Gamble, Nestlé, PepsiCo, and Companies like these need to
focus their efforts on marketing fast-moving consumer goods to entice and attract consumers to buy their
products.

That's why packaging is a very important factor in the production process. The logistics and distribution
systems often require secondary and tertiary packaging to maximize efficiency. The unit pack or primary
package is critical for product protection and shelf life, and also provides information and sales incentives to
consumers.

FCMGs are sold in large quantities, so they are considered a reliable source of revenue. This high volume of
sales also offsets the low profit margin on individual sales as well.

FMCG sector is in transition and today’s business environment is in constant state of change. The Indian
FMCG market offers a level playing ground for both domestic as well as international players. A revival in
rural demand boost the top line growth of FMCG companies. A shift towards e-commerce and adoption of
digital technologies will continue to fuel the growth of FMCG market. A huge untapped opportunities an
low penetration highlights the scope of growth in this sector.

industry, and helps determine an industry’s weaknesses and strengths. The Model is named after Michael E.
Porter.

The porter’s five forces tool a simple but powerful tool for understanding here power lies in a business
situation. This is useful, because it helps you understand the strength of your current competitive position
and the strength of a position you are considering moving into.

Conventionally, the tool is used to identify whether new products, services or businesses have the potential
to be profitable. However, it can be very illuminating hen to understand the balance of power in other
situations.

• THREAT OF NEW ENTRIES(LOW) - As Dabur is ruling the market since many years with a
strong customer centric approach. Our market is as such open without any barriers there are more
chances of new products and companies getting entered in the market.
• COMPETITIVE RIVALRY(HIGH) – It play a major role in due to other brands like nestle,
mother dairy, who have established themselves with a strong brand power in the market which are
also the local players gives a tough competition to Dabur in a proper competitive way.
• POWER OF BARGAINING SUPPLIES(LOW)– The bargaining of suppliers is very low who
belongs to the rural side who are weaker in adapting the product bargaining power and different
strategies used.
• BARGAINING POWER OF CUSTOMERS(HIGH) – As in open market customers has their
own desire and own willingness to purchase a product of a particular product and brand. Dabur also
have there on competitors ruling customers mind due to their key importance.
• THREAT OF SUBSTITUTION(MEDIUM)– Availability of other products as substitutes causes a
threat to the existing products there in the market.

Strengths

• A large number of variants: The fruit juice is available in two variants namely the Real and the
Real Activ Juice. Both the drinks are there in 16 flavors like Mango, Mosambi, Guava, Plum &
Litchi, Pomegranate, Tomato, Cranberry, Peach, Blackcurrant, Apricot, Orange, Pineapple, Apple
and mixed fruits.
• Real Fruit: The unique selling proposition of the juice is that there are no additives and that it is
made from real fruit which is then mixed with an equal quantity of water. In Real Activ, there are no
added sugars or flavors and no preservatives or additives of any sort.
• Endorsements and certifications: Dabur Real Juices are endorsed by PFNDAI — Protein Foods &
Nutrition Development Association of India.for the nutritional content them. The juice is also the
Reader’s Digest Trusted Brand Gold Award 2009 in the food & beverages category.
• A composition of the juices: The juices have no artificial flavors and are completely rich in vitamins
and antioxidants. The Real Active which has no added sugars is also rich in fiber and can be
consumed even by diabetic patients.

• Dabur India is the fourth largest company in FMCG segment with a revenue of US$ 910 Millions
• Dabur has its own heritage, it is more than 100 years old , established in the year 1884
• It has presence in around 60 countries across the world
• It is the world’s largest ayurvedic medicine provider

Weaknesses

• Image: Dabur has always been associated with pharmaceutical and medical industry and thus they
found it difficult to take up the image of a company that sells fruit juice in comparison to their
competitors like Tropicana or Coca-Cola who had established the presence in the juices market.
• Indian habits: Quite unlike the Western world where fruit juice is consumed during breakfast the
Indian habits are different. Here fruit juice is something that is offered to guests or which is
consumed occasionally. This reduced the frequency of purchase.
• Expensive: In comparison to aerated drinks like Pepsi or Coca-Cola, Real Fruit Juice is expensive
and thus may not be preferred by all customers. Yet another issue here is that such drinks are not
perceived as value for money options.
• Acquired Taste: Dabur Real Juices do not have the fresh taste of juice and is alleged to have a
medicinal flavor to it. Customers may need to get used to the taste of the juice to start liking the
flavor making it an acquired taste.
• Dabur doesn’t have direct company outlets
• Lack of awareness of products by customers

Dept of MBA, Don Bosco Institue of Technology.


23
Organisation Study, Dabur India Limited

Opportunities

• High market potential for packaged drinks in India: The market size of the packaged drinks
market is roughly around 100 crores INR and it is expected to grow at around 18 percent per
annum. This is a huge opportunity for an Indian company like Dabur.
• Favourable environment in India: With the government supporting “Make in India” domestic
companies have a lot to gain in terms of government support. Moreover, there are a lot of
concessions granted to the food processing sector.
• Dabur is the world’s largest ayurvedic medicine and its export quantities are constantly
in demand in foreign market

Threats

• Low barriers to entry: There are low or no barriers to entry in the fruit drinks sector and
competition comes in all shapes and forms. Even small to medium-sized businesses set up local
production units that make fruit juices.
• Competition: Some of the major competitors of Dabur Real are Minute Maid, Onjus, Coca-Cola,
Pepsi, Mirinda, Slice, Maaza, Frooti, and Tropicana.
• The allopathy players are of major threat as they invest heavily on advertising and distribution of
their products through medical representatives etc

The ideal ratio for any concern is 2:1. The current ratio of the concern for the previous 5 years has been increasing
from 2016-2020. In 2020 the current ratio is very high compared to previous four years.A very high current ratio of a
company is also not required because it indicates inactivity of funds which is not a sign of competent financial ratio.

Interpretation

The ideal Working Capital turnover ratio is anything like 2 and above. Initailly the ratio was very high
compared to other years here. Later it went down and maintained a good position .Generally a high working
capital turnover is better. The working capital turnover ratio should be carefully interpreted because a very
high ratio may also be a insufficient quantity of working capital in the business.
