ORGANISATIONAL STUDY AT KFIL,BEVINAHALLI
INTRODUCTION:
General Introduction
The steel industry is experiencing one of the longest upswings periods for many
years. Since the beginning of 1987, steel production is riding for almost 29 months'
with1988 bringing an increase of western world output to 488 million metric tons
of crude steel or Seymour than users also becoming all the economic growth and
country builds stadium for the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.
These favorable prospects raise hopes that steel makers are into a period of greater
stability It would seem as if the painful economic adjustment process, which has
been lasting for many years, is nearing completion, and that the adoption of steel
capacities' technologies and management attitudes to the changed patterns of
economics growth Tate are finally starting to bear fruit. India is gifted with large
quantity with high ferrous content, which is the crucial raw material for producing
the steel. Hence India is largest procedure of the steel in the world.With the help of
liberalization, globalization of economy in the process, there is as scope for
economic development, which means there will be focus on infrastructure this will
lead to considerable demand for steel. As its main application are in the
construction Engineering and automobile sector, which are the key elements in
building infrastructure. Steel is universe intermediate and has very strong forward
linkages hence steel industry has become one the core sector of the
economy.Though India one of the large steel procedure, it has low percent
consumption of steel in comparison with developed countries. India is fortunate in
having intensive iron ore deposits with estimated at 10.3 Billion which is more
than 1\4th of the world reserves. Further the average iron ore content of India is
above 60%. In India the iron ore reserves are mainly found in the states like Orissa,
Karnataka. Bihar, M.P, Goa, A.P, Rajasthan and some parts of western

Origin of the Industry

The origin of the modern Indian Steel Industry can be traced back to 1953 when
contract for the construction of an integrated steel works in Rourkela, Orissa was
signed between the Indian government & the German companies Fried Krupp&
Demag. The initial plan was an annual capacity of 5, 00,000 tones, but this was
subsequently raised to million tonnes.
Page 2
At a very early stage the former USSR & a British consortium also showed an
interest in establishing a modern steel industry in India. This resulted in the Sovietaided building of a steel mill with a capacity of 1 million tons in Bhilai & the
British backedconstructi-cl1 in Durgapur of a foundry which also has a million
tonnes capacity.
Background of the Steel Industry
The establishment of Tata Iron & Steel company (TISCO) in 1907 was the starting
point of modern Indian steel companies were established namely Mysore Iron &
Steel Company,(later renamed Vishveshvaraya Iron & Steel limited)
in1923,Steelcorporation of Bengal (later renamed Martin Burn Limited & Indian
Iron & Steel limited) in 1923, &,Steel corporation of Bengal (later renamed Martin
Burn Limited & Indian Iron & Steel company in 1939.
World steel Industry
Steel, the recycled material is one of the top products I the manufacturing sector of
the world. The Asian countries have their respective dominance in the production
of the steel all over the world.India being one among the fastest growing
economics of the world has-been considered as one of the potential global steel
hub internationally. Over the years. Particularly after the adoption of the
liberalization policies all over the world, the world steel industry is growing very
fast.

GLOBAL SCENARIO OF PIG IRON:

The demand for the international has sharp rise, the total production of pig iron. It
is estimated at 500MT, in which developed nation accounts for 45% of the total
production seeing the potential demand many mills in USA such as a Nucor,
Norigstar steel and Max Steel are switching over to pig iron production.

INDUSTRY PROFILE:
Industry growth linked to the growth of end-use sectors and influenced by
macroeconomic scenario
India is gifted with large quantity of Iron ore with a high ferrous(Fe) content,
which is the crucial raw material for producing the Steel; hence India is one of the
largest produces of Steel in the World.
The steel industry is experiencing one of the longest upswings periods for many
year. Since the beginning of 1987, steel production has riding for almost 29
months, with 1988 bringing an increase of Western world output to 488 million
metric tons of crude steel, or 8% more than in 1987.
Demand from neighbouring China the words first biggest steel maker and users
also becoming all the economic growths and country builds stadium for the 2008
Olympics in Beijing.These favorable prospects raise hopes that steel makers are
into a period of greater stability. It would seem as if the painful economic
adjustment process, which has been lasting for many years, is nearing completion,
and that the adoptions of steel capacities, technologies and management attitudes
to the changed patterns of economics growth are finally starting to bear fruit.
Government policies and the International Monetary system with pegged but
Adjustable rates and U.S .dollar as a reserve currency has favoured this rapid
growth. This period is commonly called the post war reconstruction period.
The intensity of steels economic growth was rising by a vast rate between1950-60.
In Western Europe, steel jumped by 30%, in Japan by 58% and in Brazil by 41%.
The effect of steel consumption increased by an average of 5.2% in the year 1950
to 1960. The industrialized countries expanded their steel use by 4.8% per annum.
The developing nations did so by as much as 8.9%.
Page 8
Between 1960 and 1970, Western World steel consumption grew by 5.7% a year,
with the industrialized countries expanding their steel usage by 5.6% a year and the
developing countries by as much 6.5% a year. Another important influence on steel
intensity is the replacement of steel by other materials. Calculating that portion of
the reduction in the specific consumption of the steel that is due to the use of other
materials is extremely difficult.
However, estimates made by the International Iron and steel institute would seem
to indicate that for all of the Western industrialized countries the rate of
substitution of materials such as plastics, aluminium, glass and timber for steel is
presently standing at between 2 and 5 percent of steel consumption.
Earlier to the Government liberalization and de- licensing polices in 1991-92, there
were mainly two pig iron producers in the Indian market; the two pig iron
producers were TISCO and SAIL.
They used to produce basic grade pig iron which contains less silicon content when
conversion to foundry grade pig iron. So when this is used by the foundries they
have and Ferro silicon for the conversion to foundry grade also the availability
quantity of pig iron to the foundries was very much limited because only of ISCO
and SAIL were looking after all the foundries in India.
After the liberalization and de-licensing policies of government and private sectors
showed keen interest in the pig iron manufacturing units that to in the production
of foundry grade pig iron, TATA group in collaboration with Korf brazil started
supplying mini blast furnace of 250 cubic meters.
When blast furnaces were available, many private sectors started. Producing pig
iron among them, sese, Goa and Usha lspat, sisco (southern iron and steel co. ltd).
Unit Metal, Meco, Lanco, sathavana, Kirloskar are main.
Page 9
These all pig iron producers started producing mainly foundry grade pig iron with
the help of liberalization, globalization of economy in the process, there is a scope
for economic development, which means there will be focus on infrastructure. This
will lead to considerable demand for steel.
As its main applications are in the construction, engineering and automobile
sectors, which are the key elements in building infrastructure Steel in universal
intermediate and has very strong forward and backward linkages hence steel
industry has become one of the core sector of the economy. Though India one of
the large steel producers. It has low precepts consumption of steel in comparison
with order developing and developed countries. As steel is on the rise we can
expect good rise in consumption.
India is fortunate in having intensive iron ore deposits with reserves estimated at
10.3 billion which is more than 1/4th of the world reserves. Further the average iron
ore content of Indian ore is above 60% in India, the iron ore reserves are mainly
found in the states Orissa, Karnataka, Bihar, M.P, Goa, A.P., Rajasthan and sum
parts of western Maharashtra.
When we think about Steel Industry, the first thing that comes into mind us pig
iron. This is because of its name. To put in to simple words, when metal from blast
furnace is paired in to Moulds and solidifies it assumes a shape which resembles
the back of a pig. Hence name pig iron

FOUNDRY MANUFACTURING DEPARTMENT

1. Melting & furnace
The process includes melting the charge, refining the melt, adjusting the melt
chemistry and tapping into a transport vessel. Refining is done to remove
deleterious gases and elements from the molten metal. Material is added during
the melting process to bring the final chemistry within a specific range specified
by industry and/or internal standards. During the tap, final chemistry
adjustments are made. Furnaces are refractory lined vessels that contain the
material to be melted and provide the energy to melt it. The majority of
foundries specializes in a particular metal and has furnaces dedicated to these
metals. For example, an iron foundry (for cast iron) may use a cupola, induction
furnace, or EAF,
2. Moulding
Prior to pouring a casting, the foundry produces a mould. The moulds are
constructed by several different processes dependent upon the type of foundry,
metal to be poured, quantity of parts to be produced, size of the casting and
complexity of the casting
3. Pouring
In a foundry, molten metal is poured into moulds. Pouring can be
accomplished with gravity, or it may be assisted with a vacuum or pressurized gas.
Many modern foundries use robots or automatic pouring machines for pouring
molten metal.
Page 28
4. Shakeout
The solidified metal component is then removed from its mold. Where the
mold is sand based, this can be done by shaking or tumbling. This frees the cast
component, which will still be attached to the metal runners and gates - which are
the channels through which the molten metal travelled to reach the component
itself.
5. Degating
Degating is the removal of the heads, runners, gates, and risers from the
casting. Runners, gates, and risers may be removed using cutting torches, band
saws or ceramic cut-off blades.
6. Surface Cleaning
After Degrading, sand or other moulding media may adhere to the casting. To
remove this surface is cleaned using a blasting process. This means a granular
media will be propelled against the surface of the casting to mechanically knock
away the adhering sand. The media may be blown with compressed air, or may be
hurled using a shot wheel. The media strikes the casting surface at high velocity to
dislodge the moulding media (for example, sand) from the casting surface
7.Finishing
The final step in the process usually involves grinding, sanding, or machining the
component in order to achieve the desired dimensional accuracies, physical shape
and surface finish.
QUALITY DEPARTMENT: As there are two divisions in the company the
quality department for each department is different. Quality inspection is
carried out for both the incoming raw materials and outgoing finished goods.
The raw materials should be as per the standard size, volume and with

They are:
Page 33
List price
Discount
Allowance
Payment periods
Credit Term
List price is nothing but the selling price. It is also called as Basic Price.
Basic price=production Cost +profit
Production cost includes both variable cost and fixed cost.
If the transport is undertaken by the company then boarded price is calculated
according to sites mentioned in receipt.

competitions, even with this more price also the company has succeeded in
reaching top market share holding position in the pig Iron market & Foundry.
People prefer this company pig Iron because the following reasons:
a. High quality
b. Fixed Chemical composition
c. Test Certificates are issued with every load
d. Almost 0% impurities & slag mix up
If customer demands for 2.25% silicon, Then the company will supply
exactly wit this proportion, where as others supply with range
between.2.25% silicon etc.

Page 48
Low cost of production by use of Russian technology (Hot Blast Stove)

The company will always try to update itself with the latest technology this
sense of responsibilities helps them to survive in the market.
One of the leading manufacturers of foundry products used in the
automotive industry
Company has full fledged Maintenance department both in the pig iron and
foundry divisions. These are manned by experienced and qualified
personnel.
Foundry follows international quality management systemand is also
certified for ISO : TS 16949-2004.
The Company is promoted by the diversified and well known Kirloskar
Group and has the advantage of having behind it a vast experience in the
field of industrial manufacturing. The Kirloskar Group has immense
accumulated experience in promoting and managing the foundries as they
were one of the pioneers in the field of foundry. This experience in
manufacturing systems, quality systems and HR practices are available to
the Company. Location and raw material availability
The Company has its plant strategically located to service customers in
south, central and western parts of India.
Rich iron ore deposits are available at Hospet-Sandur-Bellary belt. Other
important raw materials such as limestone, Dolomite, Quartzite &
Manganese ore are available in immediate vicinity.
The nearest seaport is Goa which is 320 kms from the plant, also well
connected by rail and road. Alternatively, Chennai and Mangaloreseaports
are also well connected.
company source water from Tungabhadra Reservoir through pipelines which
is around 5-6 kms from the factory.
Page 49
WEAKNESS:
As customers expectations are increased day by day it has become difficult
to ssatisfy them completly.
Already at peak utilisation of current capacity.
Total dependence on imported coke
Weakness core expertise on prevention maintenance.
High coke consumption due to higher fines and handling costs due to
multiple handling.
Poor market share in eastern and northern part of the country
company source its entire requirement of sand from a single supplier
company purchase sand which we use in our manufacturing process from
one single supplier i.e. Mangalore Minerals Private Limited based on
purchase orders which are issued on an annual basis. In case, its supplier is
unable to supply sand in the required quality and quantity and the required
time, it may adversely affect their manufacturing process, ability to meet
production schedules
Page 50
OPPORTUNITIES:
The company has a good share in the market, scope for further growth.
Improvement in internal and customer end quality growth in Indian foundry
capacity.
Strong financial position makes it possible for the company to adopt new
technology in its operation
Chance of restricting the export of iron in future encourages Indian steel
factory.
As company good market edge, it can market 20,000 per month of foundry
grade pig iron every month.
As the company is committed to produce quality products, it results in
attracting more number of customer and to beat the competition.
THREATS:
1.
The prices of KFIL products are comparatively higher than that of

competitors there may by chance of loss of customers.
2.
Threat from government.
3.
Threat from natural resources.
4.
Imposition of sales tax and VAT
5.
Threats of using substitutes products like plastic and fiber
6.
Many new steel industries are being raised like mushrooms Hospet and
koppal which may in decline in demand for KFIL products.
7.
Iron ore is a major raw material required for production of pig iron. Delay in
starting of the closed mines may force of the company to source the iron ore
from outside the state. thereby increasing the sourcing cost of iron ore on put
pressure on profitability.
Page 51
8.
Demand for the auto and tractors have a direct impact on the performance of
company and adverse market condition for these sectors will result into
reduced capacity utilisation and profitability.
9.
Depreciation of rupee vis-a-vis US Dollar can lead to an increase in price of

coke and in the price of crude oil resulting in input costs, thereby putting
pressure on profitability.
FINDINGS:
KFIL is one of the few foundries which produce automotive and tractor
castings with backward integration with liquid metal from the blast furnace.
This results in significant savings in melting power and ensures supply of
consistent quality liquid metal.
As a part of its corporate responsibility to the society, Company has been
supporting and providing assistance to nearby villages at Hospet by supply of
good quality drinking water and educational assistance for the village people.
Also some basic facilities such as roads, drainages, school building and
medical centre have been provided though the Trust set up by Company.
Biweekly medical checkups by the specialist doctors with medicine is
provided in the neighbouring village. Seed money has also been provided to
rural women for self employment scheme. Financial assistance to needy
farmers and supply of water for irrigation during summer are some measures
taken by the Company.
The manufacturing plants are strategically located near to major customers
and well connected by national highway & railway line.
The closure of mines and non availability of iron ore at reasonable price,
your Company has been able to run both the blast furnaces during the year.
Page 52
Commissioning of sinter plant helped the Company to consume iron ore fines
instead of lump ore and get the benefit of price difference and reduction in
coke consumption.
I understand that majority of the employees of the organisation are satisfied
from the recruitment and selection process of the organisation.
It was found that the there is less number of ratios is been maintained in the
books of accounts.
I came to know that most of the employers were influenced by good
incentives and salary.
Canteen facilities are low level of satisfaction.
Lots of wastes coming out from process.
KFIL has very low debt in its capital structure which reflects comfortable
financial risk profile as compared to other players in the industry.
Company construction work is going on
SUGGESTIONS:
The company should take suitable measures to reduce inefficiency,
absenteeism by motivating employees in various ways.
The company should use of sinters to the maximum extent by optimizing
sinter plant operation thereby reducing the cost of iron ore and also
reducing the consumption of coke.
The company should improve the coke procurement strategies.
The employees should be more educated in taking precautionary
measures while they work in dangerous place.
Page 53
The organizationshould take more suggestion from workers and they

have to implement seriously.
Production capacity has to increase by adopting high technology
according to demand.
The organisation should adopt various cost cutting measures by:
Reductio in wastage
Reduction in maintenance
The overall performance of the company has to be effective to attract the
customers and to increase its sales.
The company should plan for expansion as they are doing well, expansion
would not be a problem because the company has good sources available.
Page 54
Conclusion:
The study carried out as a part of the curriculum requirement of BBA. It gave me
a real exposure to the operational procedure of the company. It helped me to gain
the knowledge about the various activates which are carried out in the company.
The 4 weeks in plant training in KFIL has given a detailed knowledge of
management of an organisation and a clear picture of work flow of the complex
organisation. KFIL has a pig iron plant which is used as a basic raw material for
the production of the steel. This study has given a information of how really a big
organisation works by facing so many hurdles. As it is a pig iron plant it totally
covered by the risks and company is successfully overcoming the problems
In the changed market condition the organization needs to focus on the customer
satisfaction, in reaching out this goal are conclusion basis the management has to
constantly upgrade technology product profile internal work process in the end
ultimately it is the employees who will change the performance of the company.
Therefore motivation must find priority.
During the short period of my study of various departments I found KFIL a well
structured organization capable to maintain inter personal relationships among
employees. Employees are very experienced and very dedicated where they feel
company a home.
