INTRODUCTION

"Organizational study is an effort towards understanding the organization,

its policies, structure and methodology adopted. It gives us brief description of the
overall functioning of the company or organization."

An organizational study as a part of second semester MBA is really helpful to

get a real view of organization. It helps to know the working environment of a
company apart from the theoretical knowledge we are acquiring. O r g a n i z a t i o n
s t u d y d e a l s w i t h c r i t i c a l e v a l u a t i o n a n d a n a l ys i s o f a l l t h e a s p e c t s
of
particular firm. It gives a clear idea about the functions and
p r a c t i c e o f v a r i o u s department heads and operational efficiency of the
department as a whole. This particular study gives a clear idea about the
functions, practices and the delegation of authority of Green Valley
Beverages Industries Ltd, Ernakulam The organization study will help us to
reveal the how things are coordinated in real time situations. The personnel
function is

really

all about

motivation.

It is

agreed that

unless

i n d i v i d u a l s a r e m o t i v a t e d t o p e r f o r m e f f e c t i v e l y, t h e y m a y
n o t a c h i e v e t h e l e v e l o f performance that is desired to them. Managerial
people

are

always

facing

their subordinates to release their

the

problems

potential more

motivating
effectively

and thereby permit the desired goals of the organization and the needs of
employees to be achieved. The purpose of motivation is to create conditions which
people are willing to work with zeal, initiative, interest and enthusiasm so that the
goals of an organization are achieved effectively

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

The main objective of the study is to familiarise

with the organisational functions in the organisation, there are many other minor
objectives also.
They are the following:_ To understand about how an organisations system is performing.

_ To know about various departments and their functions in an organisation.

_ To study the managerial activities performed in an organisation.

_ To know how an organisation coordinates its activities.

_ To get a practical exposure as the future manager.

SCOPE OF THE STUDY

The scope of the study is to know about the
organisation, its structure, the functions performed by various departments and to
know the
overall performance of the organisation. The study will help the management students
to get a
practical exposure..

LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY

The study was limited, because the time period allotted was not sufficient to
conduct a thorough study on the functioning of the organization. The employee of the
various departments was not able to spend enough time in explaining the functions of
their department, as it affected their work schedule. Respondents were reluctant to
reveal complete details. This lack of knowledge of the respondents and the bias of
them has acted as a hindrance to the study.

INDUSTRY PROFILE

The Water shortage around the world and particularly in third world countries
has opened new avenues for bottled water Industry. If we compare the growth and
status of Indian Bottled Industry with western or Asian market, we are far behind in
terms of quantum, infrastructure, professionalism & standards implementation.
In India, the per capita bottled water consumption is still quite low less than
five liters a year as compared to the global average of 29 liters.
Though concept of bottled water in Western countries picked up in early 1900 ,
Indian Elite first tasted it only in 70s as it was difficult to gulp down the fact by an
average Indian that water was up for sale!!
Green Valley Beverage Industries Ltd, Bombay based brand with Italian
antecedents was THE MINERAL WATER and it ruled till early nineties under
monopolistic conditions and had a dream run for so many years. Mineral water meant
GREEN VALLEY BEVERAGE INDUSTRIES LTD and vice versa. Growth in
tourism ,opening up Indian economy, rapid urbanization [ 33% India is considered
urban] shortage and improper quality of drinking water saw a spurt of growth in
bottled water , all over the country in early 90s. Till that time, bottle of drinking
water

meant

LTD packed in PVC bottle.

The filtration process was turning a new leaf with reverse osmosis technology
trying to make a foothold. Around same time, Polyethylene Terephthalate, widely
known as PET, too, started gaining ground as an ideal packing medium. Its usage was
beginning to be accepted. With numerous companies taking a plunge around same
time, the experiment with process, packing and market was on

With no regulations to control neither the entry nor the quality, the market saw
phenomenal and unchecked growth for 7 years. Time and again, media hailed this
industry as a SUNRISE ONE and put the annual growth rate at phenomenal 40%.
Small entrepreneurs, big business houses, individuals, distributors, made a beeline for
this industry. And then came the disturbing part; In between there were numerous
reports of inferior quality brands, duplications of the product, recycling of bottles,
utilization of tap water. Even well-known brands had a tough time with reports of
inferior quality involving them started making rounds.

Perturbed by these reports, finally MINISTRY OF HEALTH & FAMILY

WELFARE [Department of Health] vide notification dated 10 it compulsory to
obtain ISI mark for every processor operating under Indian Territory. It was supposed
to be enforced from 29 March, 2001 and later date was relaxed till 30 these standards
were prepared long back, nobody had bothered to obtain the mark [Barring one: Blue
Lite, Delhi]
ISI has stringent procedure of screening the unit .Process, hygienic conditions,
in house lab testing, packing & documentation pertaining to these. Due to absence of
regulation nobody wanted to touch ISI with a barge pole as apart from these lengthy
procedures, a tag of heavy marking fee came along. Post Regulation, it became fate
accompli. Things were not the same
The new regulations outlined the processes, packing, hygienic conditions, in
house labs, presence of chemist and micro biologist, rigorous testing of
product, voluminous documentation and heavy marking fee. Out of unofficial reports
of presence of more than 3500 processors and packers, only handful survived Most of
them are bottled up!

While Pepsis AQUAFINA & Nestles PURE LIFE [1999-2002 ] started their
sojourn with Indian Bottled Water, entry of Kinley [ May 2000] really shook the
market with Media Blitzkreig , aggressive marketing and maximum utilization of

existing distribution channels. By the end of that year, it notched up 8-9% market
share, equivalent to what Aquafina had achieved after 15 months of operation. The
aggression continued & eroded market leaders share considerably and in just in 3
years it achieved what others collective couldnt do in a decade: Shake the leader. By
the end of the year 2002, claims were made that KINLEY HAD dented the
considerable market of leader but GREEN VALLEY BEVERAGE INDUSTRIES
LTDstill maintains that it has unassailable share of 50 % till date

VARIOUS FACTORS LEADING TO GROWTH OF BOTTLED WATER

Burgeoning population

Rapid Urbanization

Phenomenal increase in Tourism

Growing awareness about drinking water safety.

Inability of central local government to provide clean drinking and safe draining
water

Strained government resources

Consumption of bottled water in India is linked to the level of prosperity in the

different regions. The western region accounts for 40 per cent of the market and the
eastern region just 10. However, the bottling plants are concentrated in the southern
region of the 3400 + bottling water plants in India, more than 55 % are in 4 southern
states. This is a major problem because southern India, especially Tamil Nadu, is
water starved

PRODUCT PROFILE

Its a compliment being generic to the category, but its not very good when
consumers think any mineral water brand is Green Valley Beverage Industries Ltd.
Green Valley Beverage Industries Ltd, a product established in India by Ramesh
Chauhan, Chairman of Parle Aqua Minerals has become a generic brand. Green
Valley Beverage Industries Ltd was the first marketed bottled water in a totally virgin
market. The brand has become synonymous with packaged drinking water, thus
consumers accept any brand offered by the retailer when they ask for Green Valley
Beverage Industries Ltd. So far Ramesh Chauhans Green Valley Beverage Industries
Ltd enjoys the largest market share of 44% in the giant packaged drinking water
industry and is growing at the rate of 80% per annum. Annual sales of Green Valley
Beverage Industries Ltd have touched Rs.616 crores. In seventies, Green Valley
Beverage Industries Ltd was the only packaged drinking water which had national
presence and the sale was to tune of approximately one hundred thousand cases
valued at about Rs.60lacs.

The various sizes available are:

Product innovation To make sure that the product that reaches the consumer is always
high quality and also meets international standards, Green Valley Beverage Industries
Ltd has always been involved in improving its product packaging. One such recent
development is the temper proof break-away seal. Green Valley Beverage Industries
Ltd also recognizes the need to produce environment friendly products and is working
on the PET project. Recent innovation at Green Valley Beverage Industries Ltd has
been Break-Away seal: keeping in mind the consumers need should recognize a
genuine product that cannot be tempered with, Green Valley Beverage Industries Ltd
developed the Break-Away seal. The unique cap has been patented and cannot be
duplicated or tempered with. This technology development in the product ensures that
the consumer will only get a highly safe product when they consume Green Valley
Beverage Industries Ltd packaged drinking water.3. Product packaging To ensure
purity of the bottled water, the bottles that are used are blown and filled at the factory
itself, to avoid contamination. Green Valley Beverage Industries Ltd is extremely
conscious of environmental issues since PET bottles are not bio-degradable and not

easy to dispose. The company is currently working on the PET recycling project,
where they will collect bottles from various places, crush and shred them. The
shredded material will then be made into ropes, PET containers for the non-food
industry and other PET like polyester fiber, flower vase, gift items etc.

PRODUCTION PROCESS Over the last 15 year, company has set up 10 new units
besides taking on 7 franchisees. And over the3 year, the 120 bottle per minute (bpm)
capacity of the 17 units across the country will be increased to 250 bpm. Today Green
Valley Beverage Industries Lads manufacturing each indicates that it is represented
across the country except in east the east. The Mineral water plant is being set to
international standards with a high degree of automation and in-build mechanism
maintaining high standards of sanitation and hygiene. The entire plant and the piping,
which comes in contact with the process water, are made of food grade stainless steel.
A strict code of hygiene and religiously conducted quality controls tests (8 in number)
every shift further ensures quality product. Green Valley Beverage Industries Ltd is
100% free from bacteria and toxic minerals. Water is purified in plant capable of
consistently producing uniform quality of high purity water which meets Green Valley
Beverage Industries Ltd`s high standards. It undergoes exciting quality controls from
the water source stage to final packaging.

PURIFICATION PROCESS Purity and safety are two major factors taken care in
sourcing and processing of Green Valley Beverage Industries Ltd water. Underground
spring is carefully selected based on its portability and pathogen free water. Great care
goes in tapping this source. Only water below 25 meter is tapped. This is to avoid any
surface contamination to percolate and mix with under ground water source. Area
surrounding the water collection tube at the surface is protected and kept clean. The
steps of manufacturing process are given below.

The water is collected in water storage tank where it is chlorinated, giving sufficient
contact time (1 hr.) for chlorine to destroy all bacteria. Water then passes through sand
filter and carbon filter. Sand filter removes all suspended particles whereas carbon
filter removes odor and chlorine. The water is now free of all bacteria, suspended
particles and chlorine.

The water now goes to ion exchange where the water is softened (the undesirable
heavy salts are removed). This helps in digestion.

Water now passes through reverse osmosis plant, which is capable of getting rids of
even minute traces of toxic minerals, should and happen to exist. In its simplest form
the reverse osmosis plant consists of semi permeable membrane which acts as
molecular filter.

Water now comes to second water storage tank and it once again chlorinated. Just
prior to use water is passed through carbon filter to remove chlorine and then through
a series of micron filters of diminishing pores size. It is also sterilized with ultra violet
light and ozonized to attain a dissolved ozone residual concentration of 0.4 mg/lt. and
maintain this concentration for at least 4 min. This internationally accepted zonation is
on the safer side and guarantees and overkill most microorganisms.
Pet bottles in which it is filled are stretch are blow molded 100 C as such are sterile.
Bottles are rinsed with water prior to filling and immediately capped using rip off
closures to ensure tamper proofing.

water. In recent years, the bottled drinking water market has been witnessing high
decibel level of activity, with a host of new entrants. The bottled water market which
worth Rs. 1000 crore is expected to be Rs. 5000crore by 2010. This will increase a lot
of scope for bottled water market. Green Valley Beverage Industries Ltd can utilize its
distribution chain: - With GREE Valley becoming a generic name for bottled drinking
water. If company can manage the distribution chain of the product to make it
available where the consumer needs it the most, the company may well succeed in his
gamble with water. For this the company can connect it with dealers and other
distributors who will market the products for them all around the world.

Launch of premium pack: The Company also has its premium product range. This is
prepared keeping 5-star hotels and other premium customer. This pack will be sold at

water industry production cost is very low. But the distribution cost of operations and
make sure about the availability of water. Green Valley Beverage Industries
Ltddistribution network to retail outlets is the best example. They have given 20 lt.
jars to there trailers and thus reduce the distribution cost. Now there is trend in the
market to give bottle without security and a dispenser free of cost to a party using 100

large consumer base in other categories with them, like Pepsi, Britannia, Nestle and
Coca-Cola the battle is the tougher arena of brand building. All the multinationals are
