By conducting the organizational study it was found that all the departments were
actively working towards the achievement of the goals and objectives of the company.
The management is also efficient in the work, so the company is achieving great
progress year by year.
The research study was conducted on the topic “A study on sugar pricing in
TKCSFL Athani For the purpose of Project work a sample of 30 tenderee or
respondents was covered. Also while administering Questionnaire care was taken to
ensure that the sample was the representative of the population.
The objective of the study was to know the factors influencing sugar pricing,
whether customers are satisfied with selling/tendering process etc.
By carrying out the study it was found that, the factors like grade of sugar, dust
freeness, transportation cost, Govt. policies and Sugar Release mechanism have
influence on pricing of sugar and also it was found that most of the customers are
satisfied with the selling or tendering process of TKCSFL Athani.
This project gave me an insight as to how the industry works and how important
this sector is to the economy. This project gave me a thorough experience of the sugar
industry.

1.3INDUSTRY PROFILE
INTRODUCTION TO SUGAR INDUSTRY The Indian sugar industry is a key driver of rural development, supporting India's
economic growth. The industry is inherently inclusive supporting over 50 million farmers
and their families, along with workers and entrepreneurs of almost 500 mills, apart from
a host of wholesalers and distributors spread across the country.
The industry is at a cross roads today, where it can leverage opportunities created by
global shifts in sugar trade as well as the emergence of sugarcane as a source of
renewable energy, through ethanol and cogeneration. While some of these
opportunities have been well researched in the past, there was a need to assess the
potential for India and to develop a comprehensive and actionable roadmap that could
enable the Indian industry to take its rightful place as a food and energy producer for
one of the world's leading economies.
India is second largest producer of sugarcane next to Brazil. As per last year
data, about 4 million hectares of land is under sugarcane with an average yield of 70
tones per hectare. India is largest producer of sugar including traditional sugar
sweetener, Khandasari and Gur equivalent to 26 million tones raw value followed by
Brazil in the second place at 18.5 million tones. Even in respect of white crystal sugar,
India has ranked No position 7 out of last 10 years.
Traditional Khandasari and Gur are consumed mostly by the rural population in
the early 1930’s nearly 2/3rd of sugarcane production was utilized for production of
alternate sweetener, Gur & Khandasari. With better standard of living and high income,
the sweetener demand has shifted to white sugar. About 1/3rd of sugarcane production
is utilized by the Gur & Khandasari sectors. Being in the small scale sector, these two
sectors are completely free from controls and taxes, which are applicable to the sugar
sector.
1.3 a PROFILE OF THE SUGAR INDUSTRY
The advent of modern sugar industry began in 1930 with grant of tariff protection to the
Indian sugar industry. The number of sugar mills increased from 30 in the year 1930-31
to 135 in the year 1935 and the production during the same period increased from 1.20
lakh tones to 9.34 lakh tones under dynamic leadership of the private sector.
The era of planning for industrial development began in 1950-51 and government laid
down targets of sugar production and consumption licensed and installed capacity,
sugarcane production during each of the five year plan periods. The targets and
achievements various plan periods are given bellow.

The small size new units licensed by the government were supported with a
scheme of announced on 25th November 1975 known as Sam path committee incentive.
It provides percentage of free sale quota to both new sugar factories and expansion in
existing units. This is to a mushrooming growth of relatively small sized sugar units in
the country.
Under the policy of licensing, government initially permitted small sized new units
of 1250 TCD capacity only and later on increased the minimum economic size of plant
to 2500 TCD similarly the capacity expansion initially allowed up to 3500 TCD only were
subsequently raised to ITCD and finally those expansion limits were withdrawn in 1990.
As a result the industry has grown horizontally with an all India per unit average
capacity of 500 TCD. As against this, these has been consolidation and move towards
larger per unit capacity all over the world, be evident from the following table.
Total sugar industries in India are 506 out of which 67 are public sector companies, 157
are private sector companies and 282 are co-operative societies. Total sugar industries
in Karnataka are 40 out of which two are public sector companies, 18 are private sector
companies, 19 are co-operative societies and one is joint venture.
Government enacted the Sugar Development Fund Act & Rules, which provides
for levy of per quintal of sugar known as Sugar Development Fund (SDF). The SDF is
utilized for granting term loans to sugar mills modernization and grants for research
projects in the sugar besides creation of buffer stocks as and when required to ensuring
price stability. Government de-licensed sugar sector in August 1998. It is now open to
entrepreneurs to set up mills without license but at distance of 15 kms away from the
existing factory. Sugar units free to expand their capacity and also put up higher
capacity new units.

1.3.d Business Environment of the Industry
The present policy of decontrol 10% of production by each unit is supplied for public
distribution system I as levy sugar at Govt. notified prices admittedly bellow 20% of the
actual cost of production. The levy sugar is I to the public irrespective of their economic
status. The balance 90% is sold in the free market against monthly/ issued by the
Government. This policy has been continuing since 1967-68 except for brief periods of
de-control during the years of surplus production and accumulated sugar stocks.
Government announces the Statutory Minimum price (SMP) for sugarcane every year
based on recommendations of the Commission for Agricultural Cost & Prices (CACP)
ORGANISATION PROFILE
The Krishna Co-Operative Sugar Factory Limited, Athani (Krishna Sahakari Sakkare
Karkhane Niyamit, Athani.) is a co-operative society registered under Karnataka co-
operative societies Act in 1969. The industrial license number of the factory is L.I.667
(1988) dated 02/11/1988. The Krishna Co-Operative Sugar Factory Limited, Athani is a
co-operative unit. It is situated near Sankonatti village, at a distance of about 6 Km from
Athani town. The factory at present has an attractive campus with magnificent buildings
over it.
Agriculture continues to be an extremely important sector in our country.
Cooperative system, as one of its main pillars providing vital support services, is crucial
for the transformation of agriculture. It is how inspired the founder Late Sri. A B
Jakanur, an agriculturist and a co-operator, to establish this factory during 2000-01 with
the financial support from cane growers of this area and the State Government, with an
initial crushing capacity 2500 TCD and as a stand-alone sugar industry. This factory had
faced a lot of problems all these years in coming out as a viable unit. Though this
factory had emerged in this area with a meager beginning, it had not only provided a
source of income for forming community but also created a sustainable employment
opportunity in this rural area.
After a lot of dispute on location of plant, near Sankonatti village, the construction
work started in year 1990 and completed in the year 2000. The factory was inaugurated
by Co-Operative minister of Karnataka State Sri H Vishwanath on 24/03/2002. The
regular production was started from 24/03/2002, and the first season lasts from
24/03/2002 to 09/04/2002.
The factory started on 24/03/2002 with initial Crushing capacity of 2500 TCD with
total expenditure of Rs.46.95 Crore. The area of operation covered 22 villages from
Athani Taluka,
At present total sugar cane supplied to this sugar industry is from 15,000 acres
with average yield per acre of 25 MT.
The entire plant and Machinery has been supplied by M/s Triveni Engineering
and Industries Limited New Delhi, Rs. 28.17 Crore long-term loan was borrowed from
the Co-operative Banks. The factory had created a financial set backs due to the lack of
professionalism both in technical and financial managements and not adopted the range
of different bi-product activities and had suffered due to a weak governance on
efficiency, effectiveness, adaptability and internal and external accountability in the
management. However this cooperative and rural based industry must succeed if the
poor farmers and the rural unemployed youths have to be prosperous.

RELEASE MECHANISM OF SUGAR: -
The sale of sugar is controlled by the Chief Director of sugar, New Delhi through
release mechanism.
Sugar industry is basically a seasonal industry. Hence the sugar will be
produced during the season and the sugar thus produced will have to be marketed
throughout the year by the sugar mills.
The Directorate of sugar will release monthly sugar sale quota for the sugar
factories in India and the sugar thus released for the specific month will have to be sold
and dispatched before the end of the month.
In case any factory not able to sell the entire quantity of the sugar released for
the particular month, the remaining quantity will be treated as lapsed. So every factory
tries to sell their sugar quote of the month within the validity period.
SALES PROCEDURE : -
Procedure adopted for sale of sugar and power
Sugar: -
Domestic Sale of Sugar: -
The sugar is sold in the domestic market through tender system. Sugar tenders will be
called periodically from the various sugar traders. The traders are intimated well in
advance about the grade and quality being offered in tender over telephone. The sugar
tender is some times conducted at Karnataka Sugar Institute, Belgaum and also at
factory site. The officer of KSI will be present at the time of tenders. The rates will be
collected over telephone from the various parties along with grade and quantity of sugar
required by them. The parties who have offered higher price will be allotted the sugar
and they will be instructed to take the sugar delivery within the stipulated period. The
sugar will be sold against 100% payment. The rate of domestic price of sugar in the
state and the rate of neighboring sugar factories will be compared while selling the
sugar in tenders.
Export of Sugar: -
When the international price of sugar is remunerative compared to domestic
price of sugar, the company exports some of the stock of sugar. The sugar export is
mainly undertaken through the mercantile exports or through EXIM Corporation New
Delhi. The price for export sugar is negotiated taking into account, the prevailing
international sugar price and the price being offered by various sugar factories for
export of sugar. Once the rates are finalized, the company will enter into agreement with
the party. Then the party will obtain a release orders from chief Director of sugar, New
Delhi and necessary excise bond from the concerned authority. After completing all the
necessary formalities, sugar will be delivered to the party for export against full payment

Laboratory
The factory is having well equipped lab, and the main activity of the lab is to
check the content of sugar cane & fixing the correct shape & size of sugar. The lab
prepares hourly reports which advice on the addition of the other chemicals in
production
PRODUCTION PROCESS
The main Raw material in the production of sugar is.
Sugar cane.
The raw materials has to go through following stages before it become finished product. The process in each stage is as under:
STAGE:1 SUGAR CANE SUPPLY.
The harvested and transported sugar can received is weighted on the weigh Bridge. It is unloaded and kept on the feeder tables. It is fed to the cane carrier as per the requirement.
Note: 4500 tons received, 1000 tons stocked and 3500 tons crushing per day.
STAGE:-2 MILLING OF CANE/ EXTRACTION OF JUICE.
This cane is passed through leveler and fibrizor by making the fine making the
fine chips. It is crushed through series of mills. Imbibitions hot water is added prior to
the last mill to extract more possible sugar. The Biogases from the last will is carried
through Biogases conveyor and required quantity of Biogases is fed to the boilers and
excess quality is sent for storage.
STAGE:-3 CLARIFICATION AND EVAPORATIONS.
The juice from all the mills is pumped to juice weighting scale. It is heated to
about 70-77’o c in the juice heaters. It is taken to continuous juice sulphitor in which
milk of lime and sulphur di-oxide gas are adjusted to maintain ph 7.0. It is again heated
Deputy chemist
Chief chemist
in juice heaters to about 100 to 105’oc and sent to continuous clarifier. Clear juice is
taken to multiple effect evaporators to concentrate up to 60oc Bricks.
The settled mud from the bottom of the clarifier is taken to mud mixer to mix with
beguile and taken to continuous vacum filer. The filtrate is transferred to raw juice
receiving tank for treatment. The adhered mud on the screens is scraped and sent out
as filter cake, which will be used for composting the manure.
STAGE:-4 SUGAR MANUFACTURE AND CRYSTALLIZATION PURING
The concentrated syrup from evaporator is taken to syrup sulpthitor to adjust Ph
4.8 to 5.2. This is stored in the supply tanks and fed to “A” masscult boiling by taking B-
seed as a footing. It is concentrated to 92o Bricks and dropped to the crystallizer. This
masscult is purged in the centrifugal machines. The adhered crystals are scraped to
hopper and treated with hot air and cold air blower. It is sent to grader the size for
gradation. This graded sugar is stored in SILOS. Weighed and bagged sugar bags are
transferred to respective godowns for stacking.
STAGE 5:- FURTHER PROCESS
While purging A- massecuite the A-light molasses received is sent to supply
tanks and fed to ‘B’- masscult boiling with b-grain as footing. This is purged in the
centrifugals. This sugar is used as B- seed and excess is melted and fed to ‘A’-
masscult’s. White purging low purity B- Heavy molasses obtained is used for boiling C-
massecuite with C- grain as footing.
This C- massecuite is taken for purging in Centrifugal machines. The final
molasses is separated, weighed and sent to storage tanks. C.F.Magma is sent to melt
supply tanks and fed to ‘A’ massecuite boiling. C-light molasses obtained is tired in
supply tanks and used for C- massecuite boiling and C- graining also 0.

Sugar Production Process
SUGAR:
The factory initially started crushing at the rate of 2500 Tonnes crushing per day (TCD).
It is needless to emphasis here that this factory has its own credibility and enjoys its
own sanctity in the sugar industry.
The TKCSFL Athani produces the sugar which can be classified as shown in the table below. The sugar is divided in to three types based on the crystal size; they are large, medium, and small. The production of these is dependent on the crushing capacity of the factory. To produce large sized crystals it takes more time, which in turn affects the crushing. As the size increases the impurity increases and colour of the crystals decreases.
TABLE NO 2.5:-
Type of sugar Produced in TKCSFL Athani
TYPE OF SUGAR SIZE (IN MICRONS) %AGE PRODUCTION IN 2006
LARGE (L30) 1400 NILL
MEDIUM (M30) 1120 10-15%
SMALL (S30) 600 85-90%
DISTILLATION:
The unit uses molasses, which is waste in the production of sugar, as raw material for
distillation.
This molasses has about 40% to 45% of sugar in it. The yeast strain used in
fermentation process is Sacchromyces Uvarum.
BIOGASSES :
The fibrous material of sugar cane which after extraction of juice comes out from
mill house is called Biogases and is used as fuel for Boilers. In TKCSFL they use the
Biogases for high pressure boilers to generate steam. Thus generated steam is used to
produce electric power by using Extraction Turbo Generation set. Thus produced power
is used to run the factory and excess power is exported through KEB Grid.
Co-Generation:
The factory started producing Power by using Biogases in the year 2002 with the
initial capacity of 6 MW... It installed turbo generator set of capacity 6 MW in the year
2002. As on 2006 the Factory has the total capacity of 6 MW, out of which 4 MW is
used for in-house consumption and the remaining power is transported.
Press mud:
The press mud is obtained in the process of juice purification process. It is used
as manure. In TKCSFL, the press mud is sold to the farmers.
PROCUREMENT
The factory obtains the sugarcane, which is required from more than 1000 farmers and
by the company farms and others raw materials which are required for the operation is
taken from the vendor, here vendors will be evaluated on the basis of price and quality
and then the required raw materials will be taken for the efficient vendors.
The transport of sugar cane from farmers to the factory will be engaged through Lorries,
which will be taken through bidding at the time of harvesting, and also farmers
themselves supply by their own bullock carts or by tractors.
CANE WEIGHMENT: -
There are 12 outlaying weigh bridges situated round about Athani for delivering the
sugarcane from the farmers. Double check has been provided over the weighment of
cane transported from out stations.
OPERATIONS: -
The sugarcane, which is carried by Lorries or other, will be directly fed to the machine where the initial process starts. At the starting point there are knives, which cut sugar cane bunches into individual sugar cane.
After this in the next step there are sharp cutter, which cuts the sugarcane
bunches into very small pieces. Then it will go to trade marbs (a series of rollers used
for crushing purpose) for crushing. Then the juice produced will go for further
processing and the Biogases will be left out there itself. Then they add flocculent [used
for mud setting] milk sanitation etc and then after it will go through pans and Masscuite
for this Masscuite they will add sodium Hydro Sulphite (to bleach the Masscuite) and it
will be separated out and the molasses will be sent to distillery and then white sugar will
be bagged.
