 Abstract

This study explores the operational dynamics, challenges, and growth

potential of small-scale industries, with a specific focus on Simba
Traders, a small business entity operating within this sector. The research
aims to assess key factors such as resource management, production
processes, marketing strategies, financial sustainability, and the impact of
government policies on small-scale enterprises. Through a combination
of qualitative and quantitative methods, including interviews with key
stakeholders, market analysis, and financial reviews, the study provides
insights into the competitive advantages and hurdles faced by Simba
Traders. The findings will contribute to a deeper understanding of the
operational intricacies and strategic decisions that shape the success of
small-scale industries, while offering recommendations for improving
business practices, fostering growth, and overcoming challenges in the
face of changing market conditions.

 Introduction

SMALL SCALE INDUSTRIES

A small enterprise is a business which uses a small number of workers

and does a majority series of sales. Such enterprises are general in
private property and served sole property rights, unions or partnerships.
Small Scale Industries in India: These are the industrial undertakings
having fixed investment in plant and machinery, whether held on
ownership basis or lease basis or hire purchase basis not exceeding Rs. 1
crore , In the Indian economy small and home industry taken important
place due to their employment potentially and their contribution to the
complete industry production and exports. The government of India has
done several steps to promote them. However with the new measures
small and home industry which faces of both internal competitions as
well as outside competition. There is no clear differentiation between
small and home industry. However it is thought of it general that home
industry that is which is continued completely or primarily with the help
of the members of the family , In the comparison with it small industry
uses leasehold work. In addition, industries are combined in general with
the agriculture and make available support employment in rural areas. In
the comparison with it small scale unities are laid in urban areas as
principals.

HISTORY OF SMALL SCALE INDUSTRIES

Small business discovered was of about more than 4000 years ago, the
economic history of the world records the origin of industrial activities
when people civilized took economic activities in the initial stadium of
civilization. Evolution and development of industry had across the
ancient period, the Medieval Period and the Modern period. In ancient
10
time industries was far developed in west parts of India India made
outstanding performance in its arts and artistic goods, woolen goods,
textile,etc. India was more developed when compared to western
countries in form of small-scale industries in historical period. In the time
of Mogul rule India was advanced drastically but later British took over
the regions of India India was famous for both agricultural and non
agricultural product Indian small scale industries had rich past back at
2000 B.C. where Egyptian used Indian muslin of finestquality to wrap
mummies.

CLASSIFICATION OF SMALL SCALE INDUSTRIES

Small scale industries are usually classified into two they Are :-

1)Traditional small industries

2)Modern small industries

• Traditional small industries

Small traditional industries include khadi and the textile industry weaved
in the hand, the industries of the village, manual skills, the sericulture,
coconut matting, SSIs etc. Modern produce the broad range of the goods
from comparatively the simple articles sophisticated products as
television, electronics, control the system, products different from
mechanical engineering, particularly as ancillary’s to the big industries.
Small traditional industries are extremely labored while modern units of
small ladder take advantage from extremely sophisticated machines and
from equipment. For instance, during 1979-80, the traditional industries
of small ladder represented only 135of complete production but their part
in complete job was 56 %. As it doubles, the share of modern industries
in the complete production of this area part of but there in job was74 % in
1979-80 33 % were only. Of course, these industrial units by acting the
highest productiveness of the work force. Special characteristics of
traditional industries of small ladder are that they cannot provide job at
full time to the workers, but can rather provide only auxiliary job or at
half-time in agrarian maneuvers and the craftsmen. Among the traditional
industries of the village, manual skills have the highest productiveness of
the work. force, besides manual skills make significant contribution by
the way to earn trade of currencies her for the country. Modern small
industries. The industries of small ladder at present Indian are especially
11
modern industries of small ladder. Modernization enlarged the list of
products given by this industry. Articles fabricated in the service of Small
modern ladder and firms Of business in India include rubber products,
products of plastic, chemicals, the glass and ceramics now, the articles of
mechanical genius, the equipment, the electrical articles, transport
equipment, the electronic elements and equipment, the parties of auto, the
parties of bike, the instruments, the sports goods, the articles of stationery
shop and the clocks and the watches. These types of industries are usually
based on light machineries and also use power supply; these industries
support large scale industries and medium scale industries, the finished
product of these scale industriesand medium scale industries.

Theoretical Background

ROLE OF SMALL SCALE INDUSTRIES IN INDIAN ECONOMY

The small-scale industrial sector plays an essential role in Indian

economy from the point of view of job and from growth recorded a high
growth rate since Independence inspite of the rigid competition of
industries on a large scale. There are several important reasons why these
industries contribute to the progress of Indian economy a lot.

PRODUCTION

The area of industries of small ladder plays an essential role in the growth
of the country. It contributes almost 40 % of the raw industrial value
added in Indian economy. It was thought that a million Rs. of investment
in the fixed assets in the small area of ladder produces 4.62 million stocks
of the goods or services with an addition of rough value of ten points of
percentage. The area of small ladder grew fast in the course of the years.
Growth rates during the different periods of plan were very impressive.
The number of units of small ladder augmented about0.87 million
units in year 1980-81 in most than 3 millions in 2000. When the
performance of this area is seen against growth in manufacture and area
of industry as a whole, it instills the trust in impact strength of the area of
small ladder.

EMPLOYMENT

12
The Area of so in India creates the biggest opportunities of job for the
Indian people, then only in Agriculture. It was thought that 100,000
rupees of investment in the fixed assets in the area of small ladder
produce job for four persons. The area of Small scale industries is one of
the quickest areas of growth of the country. It provides huge
opportunities of job and its presence is very important for countries
appearing as India. The contribution of area Small-scale industries in
economy augments day after day. It is provider's area of second job in
value of the country after agriculture. The contribution of Small scale
industries in complete exportation am also significant which Isa third of
the complete exports of the country Except all these the contribution the
area of Small scale industries always faces up a little hostile treatment of

the big organizations. The area of Small scale industries in India becomes
competitive day after daya s the liberalizing country. In this title Small
scale industries do not accept financial support of the government owing
to deregulation, but to develop this area and make it competitive with the
government of multinationals must develop a little of policy
based institutional support in favor of the area Small-scale Industries.

EXPORT

The Area of SSI plays a role mattering in the present performance of

exportation of India. The Area of SSI contributes 45 %-50 % of Indian
Exports. The direct exports of the Area SSI represent almost 35 % of
complete exports. Besides direct exports, it is thought that the small
ladder industrial units contribute about 15 % to exports indirectly. It
happens byte salable exporters, the commercial houses and the houses
of exportation. They can also be in the form of orders of exportation of
big units or the production of parties and elements for use for the finished
exportable goods. It would be surprising a lot to know that the non-
traditional products represent more than % than95 of the exports of SSI.
The exports of the area SSI sector the meter of the very good growth rates
in this decade. It was especially fed by the performance of clothes, leather
and precious stones and units of jeweler of this area. The groups of
product where the area SSIprevails in exports are the sports goods, the
ready-made clothes, wool clothes and the knit clothes, the products of
plastic, treated the food and leather products. The area SSI re-orientates

13
its strategy of exportation towards the new commercial regime being
introduced by who.

OPPORTUNITY

• Less Capital Requirement

• Higher support from government
• Machinery Procurement
• Procurement of Raw Materials
• Training
• Technical & Managerial skills
• Provides funds and subsidies
• Export promotion
The request of growth in the domestic greatness of the market owing to
the general economic fast growth Augmenting the Potential Of

exportation forthe Indian Growth of products in Requirements for

auxiliary units owing toincrease in the number of green units of ground
getting up in the area on alarge scale. The small area of industry played
extremely well and allowed ourcountry to fulfill a broad measure of
industrial growth and diversification.

WELFARE

These industries are also very important for the reasons of casework.
People of small means can organize these industries. It augments in its
turn their levels of income and quality of life. In this title these can help
in decreasing poverty in the country. Besides, these industries have
tendency to promote the equitable distribution of income. Reasons are
obvious. One A big proportion of income produced in these firms is
distributed among the workers. Two Income is distributed among a vast
number of persons across all country. All these advantages run due to the
fact that these industries are extremely which requires the job of a strong
work force and due to the fact that these can havegone up anywhere in
the country. The distributive aspect of industries of smallladder undoes
their favorable double character more. On one hand, theseindustries allow
a vast number of people to window.

LIMITATION
14
Small firms are currently seriously handicapped by comparison with
bigger units by a system of unfair allocation for the rare raw materials
and the imported elements, is short of it disposition of credit and finance;
address low technique and managerial capacity; and marketing of
contracts. It is, therefore, the necessary object to develop ageneral
approach to take away this infirmary.

OUTPUT vs. EMPLOYMENT

An argument is that the emphasis on job is irrelevant, as the fundamental

thing is the production which economy needs for its growth. Of this
angle, they support itthat, since the productiveness of these industries is
compared low in this of bigindustries,small industries waste simply the
capital which is very rare and what,so diverted in big industries, can
produce more. From this point of view, smallindustries are more
intensive of capital. It is as supported as the productivenessof the work
force in small industries is also small compared with big industries.

DIFFICULTIES IN CAPITAL FORMATION

They support it as by one as small industries have disadvantageous

consequences in training of capital and economy. They support that the
establishment of these industries, for the duration of time, will reduce the
availability of capital for industries on a large scale with the highest
productiveness of capital.First,It will arrive because the capital, used in
an incompetent way in small industries,will not be available for industries
on a large scale.Secondly,These industries being labored, use an
important proportion of the benefit of sale of production to pay to the
workers whose marginal proneness to save is low. Asa result, a big party
of their incomes will be used for the consumption following in lower rate
of training of capital and economy for economy.

INEFFICIENT PRODUCTION

Another load against these industries is that the price of production is

higherthan in big industries, because these industries suffer from several
lack Of organization Probably, the fact of firemen's big ladder implicates,
what is represented as Economies of scale, by lowering prices.

15
SICKNESS

There are two main editions respecting ill SSIs:

(i) The existence of a big number of ill units which are non-
accomplishable.
(ii) The rehabilitation of potentially accomplishable units. As
much as ancient is concerned, there were 1,67,980units SSI
sick as March 31st, 2003. These units are those who had
acquired loans of banks.

A quantity of Rs. 5,706 crore was blocked in these units. Of these,

definitely 1, 62,791units with the special credit of bank of Rs. 4,569 crore
were identified by banks as being non-accomplishable. As much as the
last edition is concerned, of 1, 67,980 units SSI sick as March 31st, 2003,
only 3,626 units with the special credit of bank Rs.625 crore were found
to be potentially accomplishable by banks.

FINANCIAL PROBLEM

A chain problem of these industries is respecting finance for so long-

termpurposes as short term. It is obvious due to the fact that the
reservations ofcredit were not commensurable at their needs linked with
capital of rotation andfixed.

MARKETING PROBLEMS

These industries are so above against critical problem to commercialize

theirproducts. Problem emanates from such mailmen as the small ladder
ofproduction, is short of it standardization, deficient intelligence of the
market, the competition of units technically more efficient, etc. Except
insufficiency to commercialize the equipment, the price of promotion and
sale of their productsalso
is high.

SHORTAGE OF RAW MATERIALS

16
There is the issue of raw materials which continues to renting these
industries. Raw materials are convenient neither in the sufficient units,
nor of requestedlevel, nor in the reasonable value. Being of small buyer,
the producers areremarkable to undertake the massive purchase as big
industries can make. Resulttakes what is available, of any level and at
high value.

INADEQUATE TECHNOLOGY

Another load against these industries is that the price of production is

higherthan in big industries, because these industries suffer from several
lackProcedure for the production, which the small and very small firms
use, is old andbadly organized. Result is low productiveness and costs
high. There is not enough research and development in this field in the
country. There is almost no agency to provide the capital of adventure to
cover risks linked to the introduction of new technologies.

FROM LARG SCALE INDUSTRIES

The serious problem, in which small scale industries face, is of

competition of industries on a large scale. On a large scale, organized

industries as they are on the modern lines, by using the last technology of
production and approach in lot equipment, can more easily be sold more
the small producers.

LACK OF INFRASTRUCTURE

Small scale industries usually have poor infrastructure due to less

capitalformation which may not support their production and have to bear
huge cost ofproduction.

FACILITITIES AVAILABLE TO OVERCOME

ABOVEPROBLEMS

Besides aforesaid problems, units of small ladder had compelling by the

number ofother problems also. They include the poor planning of plan,
managerial insufficiency, old and orthodox designs, the high degree of
obsolescence and huge number of feignedanxiety. Owing to all these
17
problems the development of industries of small laddercould not attain a
prestigious stage.But some of above problems have solution.

1.Government provides training for Apprentice

Government of India provides free training facility to small scale
industriesemployee to establish their industries firmly, majorly “SKILL
INDIA YOJANA”is playing vital role in training apprentice now a days,
Pradhan Mantri KaushalKendra plays important role in helping small
scale industries , which alsoprovides 100% job assistance after trainees
which comes under Ministry of Skill development and Entrepreneurship.

2.Government provides credit assistance

Government of India provides credit facility to overcome the problem of
capitalformation; it provides loan facility at lower rate of interest or no
interest, there isseveral government skim like Mudra yojana, NABARD,
NSIC etc to provide monetaryassistance in and around 10 lakh to 25 lakh
Small Industries Development Bank of India (SIDBI) plays vital role in
creditassistance which not only provides loans at lower rate but also
assists in nonmonetary policy like planning, budgeting, purchase raw
materials etc.

COMPANY PROFILE

Simha Traders was founded by two partners Ramachandraiah.H.K

andSomanna in the year 2000, November 14th; firstly Simha Traders
startedtheir business in stitching clothes of local brands of Bangalore.
It wasstarted with the investment of 2 lakh rupees with 2400 sq ft
rentedspace, 20 sewing machine 12 iron boxes and with 30 employees.
Withina year they expanded their business and number of employees was
102. Soon they took their business to firm level by producing qualitative
clothes like jeans, t shirts, jackets and many other types of apparel.
Due to their Quality and timeliness famous clothing company like Allen
Solly, Park Avenue, Indigo nation were tied up with Simha traders
within5 years their capital was raised to 2 crore and 647 employees,
500sewing machines and many other machineries , They also started
exporting their apparels to countries like Nepal, Bhutan, Sri lanka which
was the major success of the industry , later they started other business
like oil refineries, distribution of two wheeler spare parts in Karnataka,
18
Which was not so successful but eventually they get into any losses
Major success of the industry was when company of Switzerland
“SwissMade Direct” collated with Simha traders to sell their apparels in
India Later same company gave some small work like stitching button
and tiesto Simba traders. Later in 2007 they faced a huge loss due to theft
in working place and lost around 5 crore worth clothing with was owned
by Swiss made direct. Which they couldn’t pay the debt to concerned
company; they sued the partners to the law suit, the lower court of
Karnataka acquired both partners property and paid the part of debt and
announced both the partner as bankrupt. Due to partner conflicts and
courts order both couldn’t carry same business. So again in 2012 Simha
traders restarted their business under sole proprietorship, which
manufactures cotton threads with 22 employees in 1200 sq ft factory
space with only 12machinery.

VISION OF INDUSTRIES

Precedence in the total clothes industry by uninterrupted Innovation,

special products, concentrated services and enhanced customer.

MISSION OF INDUSTRIES

“We shall provide qualitative products and shall provide services of

theupper quality and shall provide value which improve the lives of
theconsumers.

Conclusion

In this project, The particular topic is chosen because Small scale

industries of India play the role mattering in India which is the very
important element of Indian Economy. The view of eye of worm provides
a channel to the new businessman at their starts ups and to announce their
view on broad range ideas in more trust This helps to show the accurate
picture of how small scale industries in Indian.
