1.2 INDUSTRY PROFILE: The diesel generator set market in India is a well organized and highly competitive market. The diesel generator set market in India can be broadly classified as small diesel generators (15-75 kVA), medium diesel generators (75.1 375 kVA) and large diesel generators (375.1 2000 kVA).The market witnessed steady growth rates in the last decade on account of chronic power shortages and rapid growth across several segments such as industries, infrastructure, telecommunication and information technology (IT) and IT enabled services. The total market is now estimated to grow steadily at a CAGR of about 10.1 percent in revenue terms between 2009-2015. 1.2.1ResearchOverview This Frost & Sullivan research service titled Indian Diesel Generator Set Market provides a comprehensive overview of the current market environment for diesel generator sets in India as well as highlights and explains the impact of market developments on future growth. The study offers insights on industry challenges, market drivers, and market restraints and determines their impact on the future market demand for diesel generator sets. In this research, Frost & Sullivan's expert analysts thoroughly examine the following market segments: 15 75 kVA, 75.1 375 kVA, 375.1 750 kVA, and 750.1 2,000 kVA. 1.2.2MarketOverview Opportunities unfold as the Indian Diesel Generator Market Bounces back to a high growth trajectory. The Indian diesel generator set market is a well organized and highly competitive space. The market can be broadly divided into three segments namely the small diesel generators, medium diesel generators, and large diesel generators. Chronic power shortages and prolific growth in industries, infrastructure, telecommunication, information technology and Information technology enabled services triggered market growth. The total generator set market is now estimated to grow steadily. High growth in the industrial sector and peak power deficit at about 15 percent is expected to boost diesel generator set sales in India. With the successful auction of 3G spectrum in May 2010, major telecom firms such as Bharti, Reliance, and Aircel have made huge investment in acquiring frequencies across major urban regions such as Mumbai and Delhi, notes the analyst of this research service. New telecom towers are expected to be added to accommodate the needs of 3G service deployment, creating a fresh wave of demand for diesel generator sets in
3

the range of 15 30 kVA. The telecom sector was the key growth driver for the small diesel generator set market in the recent past. The 15 75 kVA diesel generator set market witnessed a slight slowdown in the last years on account of saturation in certain telecom circles which necessitated several tower infrastructure firms to place their tower addition plans on hold. However, with the advent of 3G services in 2010, the small diesel generator market is expected revive and project high growth rates. Although market prospects look upbeat, there are some challenges clouding the landscape. Import of low cost diesel generators and price competition from the unorganized diesel generator suppliers are some of the key restraints that are expected to curtail growth. Low-cost imports from China have impacted the pricing trends of domestic manufacturers, causing erosion of profit margins, especially in the 15 75 kVA range. The threat is likely to continue as several new entrants in this market are expected to import diesel generators. With the hike in the global price of crude oil, diesel prices are expected to rise significantly, thereby causing huge losses to end users and necessitate shutdown of diesel based generation. This will negatively impact the demand for new diesel generators in the future. The emission norms in India are being continuously updated to match those in the European Union, says the analyst. As the new norms are likely to be established in 2013, and major suppliers of the diesel generator sets in India will have to upgrade the design of the engines to conform to the new emission standards. This will entail substantial investments and several technology transfer agreements with global engine suppliers. Going forward, the degree of competition in 15-75 kVA and 75.1-375 kVA is expected to increase significantly with several new participants, both domestic and international suppliers, venturing into these market segments. For participants in this space, product positioning and service strategies that offer additional value added services will help enhance business prospects. 1.2.3Market Sectors Expert Frost & Sullivan analysts thoroughly examine the following market sectors in this research:

2.3 AUTHORITY AND RESPONSIBILITY 2.3.1 Authority: Authority is seen as the legitimate right of a person to exercise influence or the legitimate right to make decisions, to carry out actions, and to direct others. For example, managers expect to have the authority to assign work, hire employees. As part of Garuda Power, it has a formal authority system that depicts the authority relationships between people and their work. Different types of authority are found in this structure: line, staff, and functional authority. Line authority is represented by the chain of command; an individual positioned above another in the hierarchy has the right to make decisions, issue directives, and expect compliance from lower-level employees. Staff authority is advisory authority; it takes the form of counsel, advice, and recommendation. People with staff authority derive their power from their expert knowledge and the legitimacy established in their relationships with line managers. Functional authority allows managers to direct specific processes, practices, or policies affecting people in other departments; functional authority cuts across the hierarchical structure. For example, the human resources department may create policies and procedures related to promoting and hiring employees throughout the entire organization. 2.3.2 Delegation: In order for managers to achieve goals in an efficient manner, part of their work may be assigned to others. When work is delegated, tasks and authority are transferred from one position to another within the organization. The key to effective delegation of tasks is the transference of decision-making authority and responsibility from one level of the organization to the level to which the tasks have been delegated. In order to effectively delegate work, some guidelines should be followed:
11

Determine what each worker can most effectively accomplish; decide whether the worker should just identify a problem or also propose a solution; consider whether the person can handle the challenge of the task; be clear in the objectives of the task; Authority should be delegated in terms of expected results. Generally, the more specific the goal, the easier it is to determine how much authority someone needs. Delegation is an excellent professional development tool so long as it expands a worker's expertise and growth. Delegation can also compensate for a manager's weakness. A successful team is developed by building on the strengths of its members. 2.3.3 Responsibility: Responsibility is the obligation to accomplish the goals related to the position and the organization. Managers, at no matter what level of the organization, typically have the same basic responsibilities when it comes to managing the work force: Direct employees toward objectives, oversee the work effort of employees, deal with immediate problems, and report on the progress of work to their superiors. Managers' primary responsibilities are to examine tasks, problems, or opportunities in relationship to the company's short-and long-range goals. They must be quick to identify areas of potential problems, continually search for solutions, and be alert to new opportunities and ways to take advantage of the best ones. How effectively goals and objectives are accomplished depends on how well the company goals are broken down into jobs and assignments and how well these are identified and communicated throughout the organization.
The HOD delegates a part of his responsibilities to the managers,

who are responsible for the execution of orders and also performance of the same.
The Senior Executives and Junior Executives function under

Manager according to the particular job description. These junior executives have to carry out smaller tasks assigned to them by their superior and report the same to the senior executives.

3.2 SALES DEPARTMENT Sales are under the control of the general manager, to whom the sales manager reports. The sales manager is, of course, in direct charge of all activities of the sales department. It is not unusual for one of the chief executives of a company to be in general charge of sale 3.2.1 Personnel of sales department The personnel of the sales department in Garuda Power consist of a general sales manager, an assistant sales manager, branch sales manager, and sales correspondents. The various titles are explanatory of the positions. An efficient sales manager should possess, among other characteristics : the art of personal , contacts, the ability to make quick and easy adjustments to other personalities ; executive ability, especially in handling men and in office management ; a reasonable amount of selling experience; a knowledge of human nature and ability to size up men; and the ability to organize, instruct and direct others in various sales activities. It is seldom that a sales manager possesses all these qualities in a marked degree, but a reasonable combination of them is often found.

26

3.2.2 Functions of sales management The chief functions of sales management are:

Determining sales quotas, providing bonuses and prizes, conducting sales contests and special sales campaigns. Preparing, or directing the preparation of, sales manuals, or salesmen's handbooks, giving detailed information about the company, the products, and the sales principles and methods involved in selling. Cooperating with the Service department in the matter of service and reporting their reaction on dealers and consumers. Conducting, or arranging for, special market surveys and analyses of territories with a view to discovering new markets for the goods or new methods of developing old markets.

3.2.3 The sales promotion department Sales taken over and carried on in greater detail by a separate division of sales, called the sales-promotion department. Supervision is in the hands of an executive or department head usually designated as the salespromotion manager. Sometimes he reports to the sales manager, probably more often to the advertising manager, and frequently he is coordinate with them, reporting directly to the president, general manager or vice-president in charge of sales. There is such a strong tendency in this direction that we discuss here in some detail sales promotion as a separate activity, despite the fact that to do so involves some repetition. 3.2.4 Functions of sales promotion The functions of sales promotion considered as a separate department of a business are:

Prospecting territories by investigating and preparing reports upon selected cities, counties, states, or regions, giving the physical layout, transportation facilities, financial resources, population and general market possibilities. Prospecting individual buyers or logical customers by investigating and classifying them according to needs, occupations, fitness, financial standing, purchasing power, buying habits and locations. Making specific market surveys and analyses, securing detailed and authoritative information regarding the quantities of products
27

sold in given area, the satisfaction given and sales problems involved, selling methods, and the probable capacity of that market to absorb more products. Statistical reports, charts and graphs of these surveys are prepared and used as a basis for organizing or reorganizing sales forces, adjusting territories, fixing sales quotas, and finding and developing new markets for the products.

3.3HUMAN RESOURCE DEPARTMENT 3.3.1Talent acquisition It is a process of getting the right person for the right job at the right time, which is done through the following steps: a)Man power planning Man power planning or personal planning in an organization is evaluating the current man power in the organization and then determining the number of employees further required for the different positions, and then plans as to how the organization should go about acquiring the required number of employees for the various positions. At Garuda Power the manpower planning is done based on the future plans and prospective growth of the organization. b)Recruitment It is the process of discovering and selecting the sources of manpower, and then attracting them to the organization. Recruitment can be done in house or outsourced. The organization classifies its employees as off rolls and on rolls. The process of attracting people to apply is called recruitment.
28

The need for recruitment arises out of the following situation. 1. Vacancies due to transfer, promotion, termination, permanent disability, or death. growth or job reclassification. Recruitment methods of Garuda Power Employment Agencies The organization mainly recruit from private employment agencies. The Garuda power private limited recruit from ABC Consultants which provides a list of suitable candidates whenever they need. The organization mainly take help from private employment agencies when they need a bunch of candidates. In final selection process the representatives also sit on the interview panel .But final decision are taken by the representatives of Garuda Power. News paper advertisements The organization mainly recruits from news paper advertisements. In news paper advertisements the organization specify their requirements about the candidate. The date and time and place of walk in interview are also be specified in the ads. The interested candidates come in the organization with their cv at date specified date and time. Then the candidates face group interview. Then if all the interview board members think that the candidate is suitable for the organization then the candidate is being selected .The candidates certificates , mark sheets ,address proof are being verified. Casual applications Garuda Power receives self solicited applications seeking suitable opportunities. Garuda power maintain a file of such applications and whenever a position opens they may call from the applicants. But this happens in rare case. Mainly Garuda Power rely on ABC Consultants.

2. Creation of vacancies due to expansion, diversification,

It is the process of selecting the right person for the right job. At Garuda Power, the process followed is as follows. Selection Process Receiving of Application Forms Screening the Applications Calling the short listed candidates for interviews Functional interview with the manager Short listed candidates go through an HR interview Candidates who pass through the HR round are selected for the respective post d)Placement Once the candidate is selected he/she is placed for the respective position and the offer letter is sent to him/her through mail. 3.3.2 Induction , Orientation and training Once the employee is placed for the respective post and he/she has receive the offer letter the joining date has to be confirmed based on which the induction is planned. Induction As per the date scheduled, employees called for the induction. On Rolls: For the On Rolls, induction happens in office. If the employees executive or senior executive induction would consists of welcoming the new employee on board, then the HR manager would give the employee a presentation on the company, background and history, a brief insight into the various departments of the company, the work culture and the policies at the work place after which the feedback would be taken for the HR induction. After the completion of the HR induction the employee would be inducted on the various departments in detain by the respective people
30

from the various departments. This will also contain an in depth insight into the department with which the employee would be working. The induction would be scheduled across a period of one week in the department for which the employee would be working across 3-5 days based on requirement. The employee is then asked to fill a feedback form. This brings the employee to the end of the induction program. After the induction is completed he/she takes on the duty and starts working as a full fledged employee of Garuda Power. During the course of induction the joining formalities are completed which includes, Giving the joining kit consisting of the joining forms, employee hand book CD, a scribbling pad and a pencil. Filling of the joining forms by the employee which includes the following forms. 1. Employee application form 2. Joining report 3. Application for medical claim, ID card, Nomination and declaration form, 4. Bank account opening form. Orientation Once the induction is completed orientation happens which is nothing but on the job training. Training Objective of training The basic objective of training is to establish a match between employee and his job. This training is designed to improve knowledge, skill and attitude and thus, equip the individual to be more effective in his present job or prepare him for a future assignment. Training can not entirely substitute experience, but it has certain definite advantage over it. Training unlike experience can shorten the training the time required to reach maximum efficiency. Cost of training is much less than the cost of gaining experience, particularly if one is dealing with expensive equipment.

31

The results of experience can sometimes be accidental, particularly when experience depends solely on trial and error. The element of predictability is far less when compared to the outcome of a well convinced and conducted training program. Training thus provides certain advantages which are not available by learning through experience. As far as identifying training needs by the company Garuda Power Private Limited considers the following factors. 1. Level and rapidity of technological and administrative changes. 2. Level of individual and group performance. 3. Changing organizational structure. Selected candidates of the Garuda Power Pvt Limited are compulsorily trained by Cummins in Pune for one month. In the service period also the employee can be asked to go to Pune and get training. As because Garuda power is a service based company the employees are required to be thoroughly upgraded about the new technological changes the Cummins made.

3.3.3 Performance appraisal Performance appraisal is the method of judging the relative ability of an individual employee in performing his task. The appraisal can help identify a better worker from a poor one. Performance appraisal is one of the most important roles of a manager or a supervisor to motivate, encourage, build, train, reinforce and modify behavior of his subordinates. Objective of performance appraisal from management point of view 1. To determine salary increments. 2. To identify training and development efforts. 3.To facilitate organizational planning in the areas of planning placement according to suitability, promotion, transfer, demotion or termination etc. 4.

32

5. To maintain discipline and help in creating a desirable culture and tradition in the organization. Objective of performance appraisal from employees point of view

strengths and thus enable him to improve his performance.


2. Provide inputs to system of rewards (comprising salary increments,

appreciation, additional responsibility, promotion etc.)and salary administration. Methods of performance appraisal in Garuda Power Score card This method of appraising performance is easy to construct, understand and use. In score card method quantity of work, quality of work, job knowledge, dependability, attitude of an employee are being measured. In this method the element of subjectivity is very high. Though numbers are involved they may generate an illusion of accuracy. This method facilitate supervisor to evaluate employees as well as employees to improve their performance in better way. Garuda Power gives promotion to their employees on basis of this score card. This performance is reviewed once in a year. Review process has the following ratings. DESCRIPTION Exceeds expectation- has exceeded more than the required objectives and target sets. Above expectation- has exceeded some of the required objectives and target sets. Meets expectation- has met the required objectives and target sets. Does not meet expectation- has met some of the required objectives and target sets. Below expectation- has not met many of the required objectives and target sets. 3.3.4 Promotion
33

RATING 5 4 3 2 1

Promotion is the upward reassignment of an individual in an organizations hierarchy, accompanied by increased responsibilities, enhanced status and with increased income. One of the major reasons leading to promotion is the growth of business. Reason for promotion 1. One of the major reasons leading to promotion is a growth of business. Under these circumstances, it becomes necessary for an organization to create new jobs and promote some of the existing employees to position of greater responsibility. 2. A promotion also constitutes recognition of a job well done. The effective performance of a job is a reflection of the employees commitment to work, and the promotion becomes a reward for his service to the organization. It serves to enhance job satisfaction, loyalty to the organization and to create a sense of belonging of an employee. 3. Most employees are not interested in working in a dead end job. Not getting an opportunity to move upward in the hierarchy can prove to be a major demotivating force to employees, leading to a decision to dissociate from the organization. Under these circumstances, promotion becomes a strategic move to retain an employee, particularly if he/she is a good performer. Analysis for promotion

3.4 PARTS DEPARTMENT It is a department which looks after need and supply of parts(spare). It keeps an account of list of requirements for example diesel generators, engine parts, spare parts and other supporting equipments. The spare parts department is a key segment and profit centre of the dealership operation. There are certain prime reasons which attributes to such identification: The dealership has 100% equity in paid for spare parts. Investment in parts inventory represents about one third of the dealership's working capital. 25 to 30% of the dealership's gross profit comes from parts and accessories sales. Spare parts segment plays a very important part in the customer's acceptance of the dealership as a place to buy not only spare parts but the product itself.

37

Periodic review and evaluation (weekly, monthly, quarterly, year end) of spare parts department can provide significant information for the management in strengthening the spare parts department's performance. The following action suggested may be helpful in this regard, as they can provide the management with factual decision supporting information. Observe the counter salesman in action. Sample check inventory records. Review sales and profit levels vs. objectives. Review monthly turnover rate. Review ordering procedure. Review expenses. Review parts catalogue and price lists. Review annual physical inventory results. It may be worthwhile mentioning here about part inventory procedures and evaluation of spare parts manager if the total operation is being managed by him.

After all parts & accessories are counted, the quality, location and description should be compared and recorded on each inventory control sheet. 3.4.1 Serving the Service Department The service department is the parts department's best single customer. It is important that dealership management establishes a policy, which supports close coordination between these two important profit-centre departments. This coordination should include the opportunity for the parts manager to review requests for parts with the mechanic or service manager. This will help ensure greater understanding and permit suggesting additional parts to be included in the repair job. This practice will help increase sales and profits for both departments. This policy should clearly establish that close observance of the following guidelines is basic to serving the shop: 1. Provide fast service to the mechanic or the service manager. Avoid keeping them waiting. Time lost in waiting for parts costs the dealership in terms of loss of the customer and reduced shop productivity.
38

2. Anticipate the mechanics' major needs for routine jobs. Whenever practical, encourage mechanics to prepare repair orders "in advance" so that they can be reviewed and the parts are identified and available for immediate pick-up when needed. 3. Work closely with the service manager in arranging for and capitalizing on parts and service promotions. 3.4.2 Serving the Sales Department The parts manager in the dealership will have numerous opportunities to provide support to the sales department. For this reason, it is important that management policy fosters close co-operation between the parts manager and sales personnel. Areas where such cooperation will payoff, include:

Providing prospects with literature on products they are interested in. Talking with prospects about parts availability. Supplying parts and accessories for sale on new and used products. Selling items when sales personnel are not available. Advising sales personnel on equipment for which parts are hard to get so that they can consider this in appraising trade-ins.

39

3.4.3Housekeeping A well-kept and orderly parts department can attract a strong customer interest. Management policy should direct the parts manager to maintain the appearance of the department through daily clean-up of the parts on display and sales area. Further, the housekeeping policy should encourage suggestions from the parts manager for improvements in department appearance, fixtures, displays, and in storage of heavy, odd shaped and flexible items. Regular inspection of the Parts Department by dealership management will help ensure continued good housekeeping. 3.4.4Control Obsolescence Parts that become obsolete represent dealership rupees that are not working. Obsolescence is bound to creep into spare parts inventory to some extent. Dealership management can improve the parts turnover rate and minimize obsolescence by adopting policies like: Careful ordering. Regular use of the monthly stock ordering program Getting an advance deposit from customers against special order of
40

parts. By considering the parts not sold at retail for the last two years as 100% obsolete and having a dialogue with principal to accept the non-moving parts. Special sales effort to liquidate the surplus parts by offering special discount at counter or to trade. 3.4.5 Engines Cummins power generation equipments Cummins power generators Cummins diesel units Cummins natural gas units Cummins industrial diesel units Diesel engine spare parts
