1.1 INTRODUCTION ABOUT INTERNSHIP

This report is short portrayal of my 3 weeks entry level position as the segment of the MBA program,
VTU. The internship was done in DPK pvt ltd., in Harohalli industrial area. Toward the start of my entry
level position I figured a few learning objectives, which I needed to accomplish.

This project is taken to obtain insights of “AN ORAGANIZATION STUDY AT DPK PVT LTD.”

The duration of the internship was 3 weeks and the number of days visited was 19 days. The main aim
of the company is to satisfy customer.

Through the practical training, on observation of working process at dpk engineers, the few things
which I noticed are, the employees are very good at their work. I also observed that the workers at dpk
engineers work at their best without wasting their time or being idle, instead were efficient and very
much determined in their work to achieve the organizational goal. The workers in the organization have
lot of experience and were mould to work culture. They were assigned to different activities based on
their skills and the staff have knowledge about their department and they are aware of other
departmental activities.

The amount of learning and experience gathered last month is incomparable. It gave me an insight to
working culture in an organization. The experience will go long way building a better future and career
for me. The level of interaction I had with management while gathering information is very high. It
helped me to interact with the people professionally and to improve my communication skill .It taught
me the areas of improvement in term of knowledge relating to system, and other which are used in
companies. The internship improved the knowledge about the products in the market social thinking,
self control and social communication skill.
 1.2 INDUSTRY PROFILE

HISTORY OF EECTRICAL INDUSTRY:

Electricity is one of the most necessary items of living. Today we cannot imagine anything without
electricity. It is required to perform day-to-day activities .Electricity is useful in lighting, fan,
computers, train etc. It is important and so important are the conductors. The conductors are
those which allow current to pass through them. These are the points which regulate the flow of
electricity. These are also electrical equipments and accessories or electrical products.

ORIGIN OF ELECTRICAL INDUSTRY

The starting point of electrical industries is the great invention of bulb in 1876 by THOMAS ALVA
EDISON. This invention made the world to know the power of electricity, and these helped for the
invention of many other electrical items like fans, fridges, bulbs, wires, cables, meters and so on.
Electrical industry is the one of the most developed industry and many view new inventions are
yet in the induction stage. General Electrical (GE) is the largest manufacturer of electrical items
and Anchor is the largest manufacturer of switches in the world.

1.2.1 ELECTRICAL INDUSTRY IN INDIA

First electric industry in India was KIRLOSKAR ELECTRIC COMPANY PVT. LTD. Electricity is one
of the most items of living. Today we cannot imagine anything without electricity. It is required
to perform day-to-day activities. Electrical industry has the history of more than 50years in
India. In 1950”s the distribution of electricity was confined to a limited area. Only big cities
have the power plants and the level of electrical markets. In 1956 seeing big opportunities in
the market, Finolex group started the wire coil production and gained market by introducing
multi stand cables for house wiring. At the beginning only single copper wire was used for
transmission of current which was changed in modern stage to lead copper wire.

Now there are different varieties of wire coils and other materials available relating to
electricity and more than 300 firms and companies producing wire coils with different names.

When electricity was first introduced in India, the black coloured tumbler switch with porcelain
base dominated the India premises. This was during 1950’s and 1960’s when electricity was
reaching different parts of the country. There existed a high degree of dissatisfaction about the
switches, as they were hard to operate and lacked in aesthetics. These tumbler switches were
installed on wooden surface mounting box and wiring was done with the help of batten strips
(Patti). It is also offers you the flexibility of adding or removing functions to adopt to your
changing needs. For example, you could easily replace a 6A with a 16A switch or replace one
two modular socket with two single modular switches.
The latest trend in modular switches is that of a smooth scoreless appearance. Some companies
are even offering a complete range of wiring solutions that include switches ,trucking and
VDI(Voice data image) structured cabling system. Gradually the Indian switches market is
upgrading to modular switches. In additions to switches and wire coils, there number of items
which helps in the smooth running and efficient usage of electricity and power. The big names in
Indian market electrical products manufacturer are:-

Finolex – specialist in wire and cables.

Havell’s – energy meters.

MDS – Miniature circuit breakers.

PHILIPS – Manufacturer of lighting and luminary items.

Anchor – manufacturer in switches and accessories.

These are serving Indian Electrical Industry for more than four decades and heir markets are
enlarged to foreign countries also.

GROWTH OF INDUSTRY IN INDIA

Indian electrical industry has registered about 30% growth in the year 2011 from jan-mar. It
has registered a growth of 15% in 2010-2011(5.73% in 2009-2010). As compared to the same
period for the year 2005-2006. The well conceived APDRP programme and passing of
Electricity act 2003 have provided a ray of hope to the industry. Almost all sector of electric
industry are indicated growth. Product like meter shows technology shifts, as there is more
demand for the static meter than conventional electromagnetic meter.

The general buoyancy in the Indian economy would then create a demand for electrical
products through the growth of general industrial and economic development. From the
experience of past few years, it can be confidently said that the Indian industry has faced the
critical challenges well and survived in the most difficult times. In current favorable market
scenario today, the electrical industry can certainly look forward for growth.

PRESENT POSITION OF ELECTRICAL INDUSTRY

The domestic industry in India itself is large, and one must firstly satisfy this market with
products that meet international quality standards. With increasing globalization, every
international player is now operating in India, providing goods and services complying with
international quality. Once we deliver high quality standards of products and services within
the domestic market, accessing the international market for exports should not pose a serious
challenge. The Electrical Industry in India is growing to its full potential in the coming years and
no doubt that India will soon come to be recognized for quality products and services which in
turn, will bring this industry to a position of true leadership.

Indian Electrical Industry has grown because of government’s thrust on it and also due to
overall economic growth. I has also reached a stage where the industry has demonstrated its
capabilities. The industry has seen a growth of 20% and should continue at the same level for
the next few years.

PROBLEMS FACED BY THE ELECTRICAL INDUSTRIES:

- Increase in price due to entry of new player in the market.

- Increase in manufacturing capacity by some original manufacturer.
- Probability and margin of the companies are adversely affected.
- Poor distribution in rural and semi urban areas.
- Low awareness of consumer electronic products in rural India.
- Increase in access to internet information.
- Availability of wide range of choices.
- Consumers have become quite smarter.
- Consumers want the products which are easy to handle.
- Good in quality and low price.
- They want the product which have guarantee.
- They want the product which can be used for long many years.

GOVERNMENT POLICY TOWARDS EECTRICAL INDUSTRY

The sentiment of the industry is measured in terms of research intensity, export and
import capacity, expertise development, infrastructure enhancement, and etc. The entire
structure of industry is determine by the government policies and provisions which should
be conducive and optimal Indian government has envisioned augmentation in the capacity
of power generation would be 86,500 MW in 12th plan period. A blueprint for the
investment is drafted for the distribution and transmission segments with an eye to
domestic electricity plan and the Integration Energy Policy. Enforcement of Electricity Act
2003, National Electricity Policy-2005 and proposal of schemes like the APDRP(Accelerated
power Development and Reform Program) and RGGVY(Rajiv Gandhi Grameen
Vidyuthikaran Yojana) are meant for reducing loss that takes place in transmission and
distribution annually owing to traditional and degraded lines, overloading of the 11kv
systems.

Distribution transformers and low tension lines and understanding the intricacy of the
various factors and its impact on the demand for electrical equipment. IEEMA (Indian
Electrical and Electronics Manufacturer Association) opted private company (PWC) Price
water house coopers for evaluating the power sector development program and its impact
on electrical device and equipment industry.
Government of India offers central support for strengthening and elevation of transmission
and distribution network. 25% of the project cost is provided as additional central plan
assistance In form of Grant to the state utilities.

Indian government keeps on pursuing the policy of self-reliance, laying emphasis on

building up indigenous ability, is also dedicated to development and utilization of
indigenous capabilities. It follows the strong policy including encouragement of
entrepreneurship, expansion of domestic technology by virtue of significant investment in
R&D, taking in new technology, and scraping the regulatory system. Government is also
liberal to foreign investment and technology collaboration in order to acquire higher
technology, maximize exports, and expand the production base.

FUTURE PROSPECT OF ELECTRICAL INDUSTRY

The domestic market in India is itself large, and must firstly satisfy this market with the
products that meet international quality standards. With increasing globalization, every
international player is now operating in India, providing goods and services complying with
international quality. Once we deliver high quality product and services within the
domestic market, accessing the international market for exports should not pose a serious
challenge. The electrical industry in India is growing to its full potential in the coming year
and doubt that Indi will soon come to be recognized for quality products and services in
turn, will bring this industry to a position of true leadership. Indian electricity has grown
because of government’s thrust on it and also due to overall economic growth. It also
reached a stage where the industry has demonstrated its capabilities. The industry has
seen a growth of 20% and should continue at the same level for the next few years.
