PREFACE

THE WOODS ARE LONELY, DARK AND DEEP

BUT I HAVE PROMISES TO KEEP,

AND MILES TO GO BEFORE I SLEEP

Progress is a continuous process. It is relative and absolute. We cannot stop at a

certain destination and declare that target has been achieved and we need not to go

further.

The research reports are designed to give the manager the future of the corporate

happenings and work culture. These real life situations are entirely different from the

stimulated exercise enacted in an artificial environment inside this programmers and

designed, so that the manager to tomorrow do not feel ill case when the time comes

to shoulder responsibilities.

I was privileged enough to Join KAJARIA WORLD. as a summer trainee.

The experience that I have gathered during this period has certainly provided me

with an orientation which, I believe, will help me to shoulder any assignment

successfully in near future. During this period, I have visited many prominent builders

of Meerut city like Aksardham, Supertech, RajKamal Residency etc. collected all the

pertinent

information though primary and secondary data, which were available at the

concerned office and outside of the company. On the basis of my research, I have

tried my best to arrange the work in a systematic and chronological way. However to

cove Detailed information of the organization in such a short period was not

possible. Despite the inherent shortcomings of the study, a genuine attempt was

made on my part see that the study was carried out in the right respective.

INTRODUCTION

Practical training constitutes an integral part of the Management studies. Training

gives an opportunity to the students to expose themselves to the industrial

environment, which is quite different from the classroom teachings. The practical

knowledge is an important suffix to the theoretical knowledge.

One cannot rely upon theoretical knowledge. It has to be coupled with practical to be

fruitful. Classrooms lectures make the fundamental concept of technologies clear but

not their application in actual practice. A positive & correct result of the classroom

learning needs realities of the practical situation. The training also enables the

Management students to see themselves the working conditions under which they

have to work in the future. It thus enables the students to undergone those experiences,

which will help them later when they join any organization.

It is in this sense that practical training in company has a significant role to play in the

subject of Management for developing managerial & administrative skills in the future

managers & to enhance their analytical skills.

I underwent eight weeks of training at KAJARIA WORLD.

I consider myself lucky to get my Project training in such a big company. It really

helped me to get a practical insight into the actual working environment and provide

me an opportunity to make my Ceramic industry related concepts more clear.

Global Tiles Industry

The major regions in the world that produce and export ceramic tiles in bulk are Asia,

Latin America and European Union (EU), in 2009, they had jointly produced more

than 87% of the global output. World production of ceramic tiles was 7565 million

sq.mt. in 2009 China was the largest producer with a total production of 2200 million

sq.mt. Spain and Italy were the 2nd and 3rd largest producers with production of 635

million sq.mt. and 589 million sq.mt. respectively. India ranks at 5th position with

production of 270 million sq.mt., which is around 2.5% of global production.

INDIAN CERAMICS INDUSTRY

Ceramic Tiles

Indias ceramic tile industry emerged in the 1950s. Tiles form the most significant part

of the Indian ceramics industry and consist of floor tiles (46 per cent), vitrified and

porcelain tiles (12 per cent) and wall tiles (42 per cent). The floor tiles segment is

growing faster as compared to wall tiles. Vitrified and porcelain tiles are recent

entrants into the ceramic tile industry and have increased the size of the market

considerably. It is expected that this segment will capture the bulk of the

market gradually, replacing the conventional floor and wall tiles segment. These

tiles are light and have the added advantage of being offered in designer looks as

compared to mosaic tiles, which are heavier and more expensive to transport. Both

organized and unorganized sectors play a key role in the m anufacturing of ceramic

tiles in India. The per capita consumption of ceramic tiles in India is very less as

compared to the other countries in the world. It is as low as 0.25 sq.mtr per annum.

This low per capita consumption shows the likely demand that is going to arise in the

future in India as more and more development takes place. Ceramic Tiles are


16/104

furnishing material apart from being utility or hygiene products. Despite an overall

slowdown of the economy this sector continues to grow at a healthy rate of 12 percent

per annum. Growth of the unorganized sector in India accounted for 44 percent of the

total Production and the revenue earnings from the organized sector accounted to over

Rs150 crore. India ranks 5th in terms of production in the world and the market

share of India have risen from 1.7 percent to 2.7 percent in terms of ceramic tile

production.

History of Tiles


26/104

26

HISTORYOF TILES

tile art had survived in Turkey and the Middle East and the Delft tiles art survived in

Holland.

A form of tile making had also evolved among the natives of North and South

America at some point. The first decorative tiles to appear in Colonial North America

were imported from Northern Europe, mainly England the Brits having hijacked the

technology from the Dutch. The tiles were too expensive for utilitarian purposes in

the Colonies and were found almost exclusively in the homes of the wealthy.

Through the centuries, tile decoration was improved upon, as were methods of tile

manufacture. For example, during the Islamic period, all methods of tile decoration

were brought to perfection in Persia. Throughout the known world, in various

countries and cities, Ceramic tile production and decoration reached great heights. The

tile mosaics of Spain and Portugal, the floor tiles of Renaissance Italy, the faiences of

Antwerp, the development of tile iconography in the Netherlands, and the Ceramic

tiles of Germany are all prominent landmarks in the history of Ceramic tile.

In the early days, the tiles were hand-made, each tile was hand-formed and hand-

painted, thus each was a work of art in its own right. Ceramic tile was used almost

everywhere on walls, floors, ceilings, fireplaces, in murals, and as an exterior cladding

on buildings.

Today Ceramic tile throughout the world is not hand-made or hand-painted for the


27/104

27

most part. Automated manufacturing techniques are used and the human hand does

not enter into the picture until it is time to install the tile. They are used in an almost

infinite number of ways and you dont have to consider yourself wealthy to own them.

In commercial buildings, where both beauty and durability are considerations,

ceramic tiles will be found, particularly in lobby areas and restrooms.

In fact most modern houses throughout use Ceramic tiles for their bathrooms and

kitchens and in every vital area of the premise. Ceramic tiles are also the choice of

industry, where walls and floors must resist chemicals. And the Space Shuttle never

leaves Earth without its protective jacket of high-tech, heat resistant tiles.

FINDINGS

FINDINGS

To find out the market potential I used the interview & questionnaire method. The

important findings from the Noida are given below:-


80/104

80

There is lot of potential for the designer tiles as there are more developerscoming out with more luxury projects.

Designer tiles are costlier than other tiles. There are some of the brands available in the market like Le Studio,

Schalbona & Stiler but they have entered after Kajaria World also their

awareness is low as compared to kajaria World.

Most of the developers are aware of Kajaria World. The prices of the Kajaria World tiles are higher as compared to other

competitors in the area.

The sales promotional technique of Kajaria World is good but still there needto be more emphasis on personal contact with developers of Area manager.

Some of the real estate developers are going for tiles imported through theirtrusted importers this is the threat to Kajaria World.

Schablona ,Stiler & Le studio are the strongest competitor of Kajaria in thatregion also their product ranges are updated time to time.

There is also use of designer tiles in office space like high end IT/ITEScompanies offices.


81/104

81

Limitations

Limitations

The scope of the study restricted to only few areas of Noida Respondents might not have given accurate data


82/104

82

Busy nature of the respondents leading to Non response. Sample size of respondents was small in comparison with the population of

Noida.

Respondents biasness towards the certain priorities and features. Lack of time is the basis limitation in the project. Some respondent gave biased or incomplete information regarding the

research.

Some respondent did not answer all the question or do not have time toanswer.

This study does not gives a sales forecast of the market.


83/104

83

SUGGESTIONS

SUGGESTIONS

After analyzing the respondents views I found that the company has a very

good image in market. They have positioned the product well in the mind of the

customers. Developers buy their the tiles according to their need, style, performance


84/104

84

& brand. But some customers are not satisfied due to different reasons for that I

have some suggestions for the company.

The company should participate in different real estate related exhibitionsorganized in country.

Awareness of company should be raised from new innovative means like Facebook, Twitter, Banner ads on internet should be followed.

T.V & News Paper ads should be there showing its luxury appeal, so as to

increase the awareness of Kajaria World in certain class of society about it.

Sales people should have to visit time to time to builders place & also to theirarchitects too with the company's design and catalogs.

They can provide information through more sophisticated means like PPTPresentations, audio, video presentations.

The distribution channels should be improved & concept of only companysself Operating showrooms should be followed because it increases the

exclusive appeal.

The company should open its showrooms in the different parts of the country

where there is demand for premium housing & office space. It should focus on The 7 Stars of India* i.e Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Pune,


85/104

Banglore, Chennai, Hyderabad.

Quality of tiles should be improved, also the delivery time period for it shouldalso need to be taken care of.

SWOT ANALYSIS

SWOT ANALYSIS

SWOT analysis is the short form of Strength, Weakness, Opportunity and threats

analysis. In this analysis we discuss about the product under these four points.

Strength, Weakness, Opportunity and threats for the designer tiles are as follows-


87/104

87

STRENGTHS

It is a new concept in ceramic industries in India, thereby increasing the chance of

success.

The name of Kajaria is itself a big support to increase the brand awareness of

Kajaria World.

Innovativeness in design and quality products is quite better, particularly in bigger

size.

Availability of international brands increases appreciation & reputation for the

company.

The company is having a wide presence in Indian cities, thereby making


88/104

88

available products in time.

Distributing through own showrooms add to exclusivity, which is most important

in luxury products.

WEAKNESES

The designer tiles are very costly, as they are imported from different countries

so import cost & excise duty is levied on them making them costlier.

There is no use of broken tiles.

Customers in Tier 2 & 3 cities are not aware about it.

It is out of reach of middle class customer which are more in majority.

Kajaria has to depend on different other companies for making the tiles

available so more time is involved in delivering goods


89/104

89

OPPORTUNITIES

The designer tiles are having very good opportunity because of its look and itsincreasing use in luxury housing projects also by many high end users who

earlier have to depend on importers. It can be said that in coming future there

will be only and only designer tiles.

Kajaria because of its position & reputation can make available these tiles tothe use of the common man especially middle class at affordable rates who are

now seen & respected as a huge market.

As the developers move into Tier 1 & Tier 2 cities of India there will be anincrease in demand for luxury housing there by creating a huge market

opportunity for the company.

Now a days IT/ITES companies are entering in to other cities therebyincreasing the demand for premium office space.

THREATS

In spite of very good opportunity, the Indian ceramic market has a threat of Chinese

tiles. The Chinese tile are not only less in price but also have better designs.

The other threat emerging from government policy is excise & other import


90/104

90

duties which kajaria had to pay for importing tiles thereby increasing the cost

of the product.

The designer tiles are mainly design based, ones the design are removed

from offerings then it becomes tough to procure them.

Threat from local importers like PPC is also there

There is also a threat to the company from other organized players like

Schablona, Le Studio & Stiler.

Schablona from SOMANY , Le Studio from NITCO & Stiler from Orient

has also ventured in designer tile market so kajaria should also take some

steps to maintain its leadership position.
