Summer Internship Programme is a part of MBA Programme, which is very
helpful in getting practical knowledge in this globalization world. Now-a-days only
theoretical knowledge is not enough to success in life but most important we
must have practical knowledge. With the help of this training, I came to know how
to apply theoretical knowledge in practice.

6. Executive summary
AMUL is a co-operative sector. It is the institution of the farmers, for the farmers and
from the farmers. The AMUL gives pleasure to the farmer to charge the own price, which
was not possible in earlier years. This union was born on 14th December 1946. The union
provides facilities to its members like more return, satisfactory price, insemination, first
aid, group Insurance, cattle food at confessional price etc.
I have done case analysis on HRIS of AMUL and from that I have come to know how
organization operates and how the functions have been carried in the organization . From
this is case I have come to know how a wide organization like AMUL manages its
Human resource .
AMUL dairy has five main departments like finance, personnel, commercial, milk
procurement and production. The finance department does the clerical work and takes
care of inflow and outflows of the cash. The other work of finance Department is to audit
of annual work.
The personnel department handles the work regarding personnel like appointment,
recruitment, promotion, transfer, dismissal, demotion, performance appraisal etc.

9. Symbol of Amul is a ring of four hands, which are coordinated each other .The
actual meaning of this symbol is coordination of hand of different people by
whom this union is now at top.
 First hand is for the farmers (producers), without whom the organization
would do not existed. Farmers are the inspiration of the AMUL – the taste of
India.
 Second hand is for the representatives of processors by whom the raw milk
processed into different finished products.
 Third hand is for marketers without whom the product would have not be able to
reached to the customer.
 Fourth hand is for customers without whom the organization could not carry on
because they are the people who consume the product. The union of Amul would not
have been the second biggest successful company in the world without the
coordination of the above four hand.

MOTTO, VISION, AND QUALITY POLICY
MOTTO
The main motto of AMUL is to help farmers. Farmers were the foundation stone of
AMUL. The system works only for farmers and for consumers, not for profit. The main
of AMUL is to provide quality products to the consumers at minimum cost. The goal of
AMUL is to provide maximum profit in terms of money to the farmers.
VISION
Vision of AMUL is to provide and vanish the problems of farmers (milk producers). The
AMUL apparition was to run the organization with co-operative of four main parties, the
farmers, the representatives, the marketers, and the consumers.
11

12. QUALITY POLICY
We the motivated and devoted work force of AMUL are committed to produce whole
some and safe foods of excellent quality to remain market leaders through deployment of
quality management system, state of art technology innovation and eco- friendly
delightment of customer and betterment of milk producer
HISTORY
In early 1940’s a farmer in Kaira district, as elsewhere in India, derived his income
almost entirely from seasonal crops. The income from milk was paltry and could not be
depended upon. The main buyers were milk traders of Polson Ltd.-a privately owned
company that enjoyed monopoly for supply of milk from Kaira to the Government Milk
Scheme Bombay. The system leads to exploitation of poor and illiterate farmers by the
private traders.
12

13. However, when the exploitation became intolerable, the farmers were frustrated. They
collectively appealed to Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, who was a leading activist in the
freedom movement. Sardar Patel advised the farmers to sell the milk on their own by
establishing a cooperative union, instated of supplying milk to private traders. Sardar
Patel sent the farmer to Shri Morarji Dasai in order to gain his Co-operation and help.
Shri Dasai held a meeting at ‘Samrkha’ village near Anand, on January 4, 1946. He
advised the farmers to from a society for collection of the milk.These village societies
would collect the milk themselves and also decided prices for that which would be
profitable for them. The district union was also from to collect the milk from such village
cooperative societies and to sell them. It was also resolved that the government should
asked to buy milk from the union.
However, the government did not seem to help farmer by any means. It gave the negative
response by turning down the demand for the milk. To respond to this action of
government, farmer of Kaira district went on a milk strike. For 15 days not a single drop
of milk was sold to the traders. As a result the Bombay milk scheme was severely
affected. The milk commissioner of Bombay then visited Anand to assess the situation.
Finely he decided to fulfill the farmers demand.
Thus their cooperative unions were forced at village and district level to collect and sell
milk on a cooperative basis, without the intervention of government. Mr. Verghese
Kurien had main interest in establishing union who was supported by Shri Tribhuvandas
Patel who convinced farmers in forming the cooperative unions at thevillage level. ‘The
Kaira District Co-operative Milk Producers’ Union’ was thus established in Anand and
was registered formally under section 10 of Bombay Act VII of 1925 on December 14,
1946. Since then farmers are selling all the milk in Anand through cooperative union. In
1955 it was commonly decided the sell milk under the brand name ‘Amul’
At the initial stage only 250 liters of milk was collected everyday. But with the growing
awareness of the benefits of the co-operative-ness the collection of milk increased. Today
Amul collect 50, 00,000 liters of milk everyday. As the milk is perishable commodity it
became difficult to preserve milk for a longer period. Besides when the milk was to be
13

14. collected from the far places there was a fear of spoiling of milk. To over come this
problem the union thought to develop the chilling unit at various junctions, which would
collect the milk and could chill so as preserve it a for a longer period. Thus, today Amul
has more than 168 chilling centers in various villages. Milk is collected from almost 1097
societies.
With the financial help from UNICEF, assistance from the government of New Zealand
under the Colombo plan, of Rs. 50 million for factory to manufactory milk powder and
butter. Dr. Rajendara Prasad, the president of India laid the foundation on November 50,
1954. Shri Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the prim minister of India declared it open at Amul
dairy on November 20, 1955.
A plant to manufacture balanced cattle feed was formally commissioned on October 31,
1964 by Shri Lalbahadur Shastri, the Prime Minister of India. At the request of the
government of India, a new dairy with a capacity to manufacture 40 tons of milk powder
and 20 tons of butter a day was completed in 1963. This was meant to meet the
requirement of India’s defense forces. The dairy was declared open by ShriMorarji Desai
in April, 1965. in 1974, the Kaira Union setup a plant to manufacture high-protein
weaning food, chocolate and malted food at Mogar, about 8 km south of Anand.
In September, 1981, the second cattle feed plant at ‘Kanjari’ were started. The succesion
of the co-generation project on September 11, 1985, marked a milestone on the energy
front when two gas turbine generators of 1.5 MW each based on natural gas, were
commissioned. On October 31, 1992, Dr. V. Kurien chairman, National Dairy
Development Board, laid the foundation of Kaira Union’s third dairy with a processing
capacity of 6.5 lakh liters of milk a day. Work on the third dairy and cheese plant at
‘Khatraj’ with capacity for 20 Metric Ton of cheese per day, began in February, 1994.
Also in 1994, Kaira Union put up bread spread plant at ‘Mogar’ with the assistance from
National Dairy Development Board.

15. THE AMUL BUTTER GIRL STORY
Amul Butter Girl: The moppet who put Amul on India's breakfast table.
50 years after it was first launched, Amul's sale figures have jumped from 1000 tones a
year in 1966 to over 25,000 tones a year in 1997. No other brand comes even close to it.
All because a thumb-sized girl climbed on to the hoardings and put a spell on the masses.
Bombay: Summer of 1967. A Charni Road flat. Mrs. Sheela Mane, a 28-year-old
housewife is out in the balcony drying clothes. From her second floor flat she can see her
neighbors on the road. There are other people too. The crowd seems to be growing larger
by the minute. Unable to curb her curiosity Sheela Mane hurries down to see what all the
commotion is about. She expects the worst but can see no signs of an accident. It is her
four-year-old girl who draws her attention to the hoarding that has come up overnight.
Round eyed, chubby cheeked, winking at you, from strategically placed hoardings. She is
the Amul moppet everyone loves to love
For 30 odd years the Utterly Butterly girl has managed to keep her fan following intact.
So much so that the ads are now ready to enter the Guinness Book of World Records for
being the longest running campaign ever. The ultimate compliment to the butter came
when a British company launched butter and called it Utterly Butterly.
15

16. It all began in 1966 when Sylvester daCunha, then the managing director of the
advertising agency, ASP, clinched the account for Amul butter. The butter, which had
been launched in 1945, had a staid, boring image, primarily because the earlier
advertising agency which was in charge of the account preferred to stick to routine,
corporate ads.
The Amul girl who lends herself so completely to Amul butter, created as a rival to the
Polson butter girl. This one was, village belle, clothed in a tantalizing choli all but
covering her upper regions. "Eustace Fernandez (the art director) and I decided that we
needed a girl who would worm her way into a housewife's heart. And who better than a
little girl?" says Sylvester daCunha. And so it came about that the famous Amul moppet
was born.

regarding milk, but in the winter season there was excess supply of milk. So, Amul has to
sell out that excess milk at the low price or Amul has to face loss. To removing these
problems Amul take decision to set up a plant to process the surplus milk butter and milk

MANUFACTURING PROCESS FOR MILK
MILK PROCUREMENT
Total milk procurement by our Member Unions during the year 2006-07 averaged 67.25
lakh kilograms (6.7 million kg) per day, representing a growth of 4.5 per cent over 64.38
lakh kilograms (6.4 million kg) per day achieved during 2005-06. The highest
procurement as usual was recorded during January 2007 at 84.09 lakh kilograms (8.4
million kg) per day. This increase in milk procurement is very impressive, keeping in
mind the massive loss suffered by our farmers due to
floods during the monsoon season, specially in Surat district.
MILK PROCESSING
1 Homogenization: - Milk must then be homogenized. Without homogenization, the
milk fat would separate from the milk and rise to the top. Milk fat is what gives milk its
35

36. rich and creamy taste. In this process Milk is transferred to a piece of equipment called a
homogenizer. In this machine the milk fat is forced, under high pressure through tiny
holes.
2 . Pasteurization:- Pasteurization is the process that purifies milk and helps it stay
fresher, longer. Milk is pasteurized by heating it to 72°C for 16 seconds then
quickly cooling it to 4°C. Pasteurization is named after Louis Pasteur, the famous
scientist.
3 .Adding Vitamins; - Before homogenization, vitamin D is added to all milk.
Vitamin D combined with the calcium that naturally exists in milk help gives us strong
bones and teeth. Dairies also add Vitamin A to skim, 1% and 2% milk. Vitamin A is good
for our eyesight.
36

37. 4.Packaging Milk: - Milk is now ready to be packaged. Milk is pumped through
automatic filling machines direct into bags, cartons and jugs. The machines are carefully
sanitized and packages are filled and sealed without human hands. During the entire time
that milk is at the dairy, it is kept at 1° - 2°C. This prevents the development of extra
bacteria and keeps the milk it’s freshest.
5.Storing:- Milk is delivered to grocery stores, convenience stores and restaurants in
refrigerated trucks that keep milk cooled to 1° - 4°C. The stores take their milk and
immediately place it in their refrigerated storage area. Because fresh milk is so important
to our diets, dairies, and our health.

39. Processing :
After the union received the milk, it was tested and if it was found to be of good quality,
it was sent for processing. If the milk was found to have high acidity, it was used to make
buttermilk. Raw milk was sent through a filter and clarifier and was pasteurized. For
pasteurization, milk was treated at high temperatures for a specified.
This helped in destroying the pathogens and in maintaining the quality. After
pasteurization, the milk was sent through a separation machine. Here the cream was
separated and skimmed milk was obtained. According to the demand, the unions packed
the milk after it was pasteurized and sent for distribution. The cream was marketed as
Amul Fresh cream .
Distribution
GCMMF coordinated with various unions to get a regular supply of milk and dairy
products. The processed milk and dairy products were procured from district dairy unions
and distributed through third party distributors. To ensure quality and timely deliveries,
GCMMF and the district unions had several mechanisms in place. The VCS constantly
monitored the deliveries of the milk collected and ensured that the milk was picked up on
time. The unions monitored the supplies of milk and the distribution of finished products.
WARE HOUSING: Amul products are available in over 500,000 retail outlets across
India through its network of over 3,500 distributors. There are 47 depots with dry and
cold warehouses to buffer inventory of the entire range of products. GCMMF transacts on
an advance demand draft basis from its wholesale dealers instead of the cheque system
adopted by other major FMCG companies. This practice is consistent with GCMMF's
philosophy of maintaining cash transactions throughout the supply chain and it also
minimizes dumping. Wholesale dealers carry inventory that is just adequate to take care
of the transit time from the branch warehouse to their premises. This just-in-time
inventory strategy improves dealers' return on investment (ROI). All GCMMF branches
engage in route scheduling and have dedicated vehicle operation .

42. DEFINITION OF VALUE CHAIN
As per the above diagram there are the first components is raw material:
In our company the raw materials are milk, powder for ice creams manufacturing,
different types of flavors for ice creams, packaging material, sugar etc. required by the
company for manufacturing. In this step GCMMF play a very important role it procures
milk from villages and for this it develops three types of system and that is societies at
villge level, district level and state level.
42

43. Second component is suppliers are the farmers and other raw material for manufacturing
the ice creams are provided by MAHAN PROTEINS LTD., IDEAL ICE CREAMS and
BHARAT ESSENCE.
This component is manufacturing process which is describe above. In milk process there
are mainly five steps are required and i.e. homogenization, pasteurization, adding
vitamins, packaging, storing. In this process there are also requirement of warehouse for
storing the product which already made and also for the raw material.
The next step is the distribution channel in which GCMMF plays very important role in
that. It handle all the marketing for AMUL products. GCMMF's products were marketed
through 50 sales offices located across India to 4,000 stockists. These stockists supplied
the products to more than 500,000 retail outlets.
The next step is the customers in this category there are restaurants includes. Also the
retail shops and whole sellers are included.
The last step is the consumer in which the actual hose hold are included in this category.

55. INTRODUCTION: Finance Management
Sound working capital management has become a necessity in era of information
technology for a company to succeed. The best example to support this argument is the
performance of Dell computers as reported in one of the recent Fortune article. A perusal
of the article will give us an insight into how Dell could use technology for improving
the performance of components of working capital.
• Use of internet as a tool for reducing costs of linking manufacture with their supplier
and dealers.
• Outsourcing operations if the firm’s core competence does not permit the
performance of the operation effectively.
• Train the employees to accept change.
• Introduction of internet business.
• Releasing Capital by reduction in investment in inventory for improving the
profitability of operating capital.
A financial manager spends a large part of his time in managing working capital.
There are two important elements of working capital management.
• Decision on the amount of current assets to be held by a firm for efficient operations
of its business.
• Decision on financing working capital requirement.
Inadequacy or mismanagement of WORKING CAPITAL is the leading cause of many
business failures. Working capital is that portion of asset of a business which are used in
55

56. current operations. They are used in the operating cycle of the firm. It is defined as the
excess of Current Assets over Current Liabilities and provisions.
Objective of Working Capital Management:
The basic objective of financial management is maximizing the Net wealth of
shareholders. A firm must earn sufficient return from its operations to ensure the
realization of this objective. There exists a positive correlation between sales and firm’s
return on its investment. The amount of earnings that a firm’s earns depends upon the
volume of sales achieved. There is the need to ensure adequate investment in current
assets, keeping pace with accelerating sales volume. Firm’s makes sales on credit. There
is always a time gap between sale of goods on credit and the realization of proceeds of
sales from the firm’s customers. Finance manager of a firm is required to finance the
operation during the time gap. Therefore, objective of Working Capital Management is to
ensure smooth functioning of the normal business operations of a firm. The firm has to
decide on the amount of Working Capital to be employed.
The firm may have a conservative policy of holding large quantum of current assets to
ensure large market share and to prevent the competitors from snatching any markets for
their products. But such a policy will affect the firm’s return on its investment. The firm
will have higher than the required amount of investment on current assets. This excess
funds locked in current assets will reduce the firm’s profitability on operating capital.
NEED FOR WORKING CAPITAL:
The need for working capital arises on account of two reasons:
56

57.  To finance operations during the time gap between sale of goods on credit and
realization of money from customer of the firm.
 To finance investments in current assets for achieving the growth targets in sales.
Therefore finance the operations in operating cycle of a firm working capital is required.
COMPONENTS OF WORKING MANAGEMENT
There are two main components are given below:
1. Current Assets and
2. Current Liabilities.
Current Assets are:
 Inventories
 Sundry Debtors
 Bills Receivables
 Cash and Bank Balances
 Short term investment
 Advances such as advances for purchase of raw materials, components
and consumable stores, prepaid expenses etc.
Current Liabilities are:
 Sundry Creditors
 Bills Payable
 Creditors for outstanding expenses
 Provision for tax
 Other provisions against the liabilities payable within a period of 12
months.

Net Working Capital:
Net Working Capital is the excess of current assets over current liabilities and provisions.
Net Working Capital is positive when Current Assets exceed current liabilities, and
negative when current liabilities exceed current assets. This concept has been following
practical relevance.
1. It indicates the ability of the firm to effectively use the spontaneous
finance in managing the firm’s Working Capital requirements.
2. A firm’s short term solvency is measured through the Net Working
Capital position it commands.

Efficient Working Capital Management requires that the firm’s should operate with the
amount of Net Working Capital. The data of last three years shows the margins by which
Current assets over the short term obligations and such margins were more in 2007-08 as
compared to past years. The portion of current which can be financed through long-term
assets has decreased in 2008-09 as the portion of current liabilities has proportionately
increased and hence the Net Working Capital is low in 2008-09.

STUDY ON HUMAN RESOURCE INFORMATION SYSTEM
OF
61

62. STUDY OBJECTIVES :
• To understand , how human resource being managed by the organization.
• To study the maintenance of the records of their employees.
• To study if organization is using ICT for HR functions and to maintain
database.
• To study the users perception about HRIS
Definition:
“A Human Resources Information System, is a system that lets you keep track of all
your employees and information about them. It is usually done in a database or, more
often, in a series of inter-related databases “
Human Resources is an organizational function that deals with issues such as recruitment
and selection, training, appraisal, compensation and performance management of the
employee.
Information System :
A system, whether automated or manual, that comprises people, machines, and/or
methods organized to collect, process, transmit, and disseminate data that represent user
information .
HRIS
Human Resource Information System (HRIS) is a systematic way of storing data
and information for each individual employee to aid planning, decision making, and
submitting of return and reports to the external agencies .
• It merges HRM as a discipline and in particular its basic HR activities and processes
with the information technology field.
• It can be used to maintain details such as employee profiles, absence reports, salary
administration and various kinds of reports.
62

63. INTRODUCTION :
An information system is an inter-related set of procedures and processes to provide
information for decisions. Information is data that have been processed so that they are
meaningful. It adds to the representation of an idea. It corrects and confirms previous
information. It tells us something which we did not know. Many organisations have
computer-assisted information systems. Thus HRIS is a system that enables storing of
information of Human Resource in every aspect such as Personal, Academic,
Qualification, Family, Medical, Career and Performance Evaluation, Training &
Development & Wage and Salary of individuals. Unlike manual systems the HRIS
enables availability of all such information in a single screen. Reports on various
parameters can be generated with ease. Moreover reliability of such records is assured.
• An information system especially developed for human resource management is
referred to as HRIS – a human resource information system.
• Human resource management, when it doesn’t include the human resource planning
function, requires only a basic HRIS. If this basic HRIS is computer-supported, it is
likely to include transition processing system or management information system.
• An information system provides for the accumulation by gathering, processing by
deleting extraneous information, deciding among divergent information and putting
the information in a logical arrangement that promotes its understanding.
• Finally, the information is stored in a readily accessible configuration.
HR Information System Includes :
This system include the employee name and contact information and all or some of the
following:
• Department
• Job Title
63

64. • Grade
• Salary
• Salary History
• Position History
• Employee details (Personal & Professional)
• Employee Posting information on appointment /transfer
• Employee promotion/ appointment information
• Employee Service verification details
• Employee Leave Information including(Leave available , leave availed,)
• Employee confidential report information
• Employee Training information
Needs Of HR Information System
• Human resource manager requires considerable amount of data for planning and
control of human resources and for this there is a strong need of a sound
information system.
• Efficiently storing each employee information and data for reference- personal
data management, pay roll accounting, benefits management and planning.
• Enabling informed decision making in day-to-day personnel issues, planning,
budgeting, implementing and monitoring Human Resource function.
64

65. • Facilitating decision making in areas like promotion, transfer, nomination, settling
employees provident funds, retirement, gratuity, LTC, and earned leave
compensation
• Cutting costs.
• Improving accuracy
Advantages Of HR Information System
• Reduction in the amount and cost of stored human resource data.
• Availability of timely and accurate information about human assets.
• Developing of performance standards for the human resource division.
• More meaningful career planning and counselling.
EFFECTIVENESS OF HRIS
The key to the effective planning of manpower and improvement of people productivity
is an effective HRIS. However, in order to be effective an information system must take
into account the following :
Adequacy of information: Too much or too little information, both lead to defective
decision-making. Therefore, there must be some understanding regarding what
information and in how much detail and covering what periods should be maintained.
Specificity: Even where it is not possible to quantify the information, the information
should be made as specific as possible.
Relevance: Information is to be managed in the light of the requirements of the
decision makers. Therefore, HRIS focus on the needs of the decision-makers and
stakeholders rather than on what is interesting or easily available or palatable to the
65

66. people. The system, therefore, must also have the built in capability for deletion and
updating of data.
Comprehensiveness: The information should be complete from the point of view of the
decision-maker giving details of who, what, how, when, where and why .
Reliability: Since the information is going to be the basis of critical decisions, it must
satisfy the requirements of validity and reliability. Moreover, to ensure effectiveness, not
only should the information provided be relevant and reliable but the delivery system
should also be the most satisfying and cost effective. A wealth of information but not
accessible when needed or available at an inhibiting personal cost in terms of energy and
time, is of hardly any use.
IT SUPPORTED HRIS
In today’s enterprises, HRIS are typically Information Technology (IT) supported
systems. This is not to say that without IT HRIS cannot be introduced. But
information technology allows much greater effectiveness of HRIS than a manual
system. Some of the deficiencies of the Manual Systems which an IT based HRIS
overcomes to a considerable extent
Convenience: In IT enabled systems, data entry, update and retrieval are all
significantly faster. Redundant data may be easily replaced.
Integration: A computerized system can greatly reduce fragmentation and duplication of
data. All data can be stored in a single system to enable retrieval of complete picture of
each employee or of each defined parameter in a desired number of permutation and
combinations. Moreover, depending on the requirement, reports can be generated in
different ways that provide an accurate picture. Verification of data and error rectification
are also relatively easy in computerized systems.
Multi-user benefit
Different people can access the data simultaneously, which facilitates quick
66

67. dissemination across geographical and structural boundaries and facilitates faster
decision-making. Moreover, on-line data entry is possible that leads to automatic up-
dating of data resulting into better informed decisions. However, to obtain these
advantages, it is important that the knowledge and expertise is available to the
organization, internally or from outside, to develop and tailor- make the system to suit the
organization’s unique needs.

69. A CASE STUDY OF HUMAN RESOURCE INFORMATION
SYSTEM AT AMUL
Human resource information system , that enables the organization in collecting ,
storing , maintaining ,retrieving and validating data needed about its human resource .
HR data are wide in their variety, and include job history (transfers, promotions,
etc.),current and historical pay details, inventories of skills and competencies, education
and training records, performance assessment details, absence, lateness, accident ,medical
and disciplinary records, warning and suspensions, holiday entitlements, pensions data
and termination records. An HRIS normally provides an electronic database for the
storage and retrieval of this data which is, at least potentially, available to anyone who
may want to access it.
The important issue however, is- how this IT system is actually used in carrying out the
HR tasks.
ERP is an information system to drive the business. It enables the organization to take
systematic decision in the area of planning , execution and control based on relevant and
current information .
HRIS - Vendors
• Automatic Data Processing Inc.
• SAP AG
• Restrac Web Hire
• ERP Oracle/PeopleSoft
• Human Resource Microsystems
• Business Computer Systems
• Lawson Software
This are the vendors who provides the different types of system to different
organisation . From the above various systems the AMUL uses the system named ERP
ORACLE – Enterprise resource planning . The areas of application of HRIS as follow.
1. Training management
69

70. 2. Turnover analysis
3. Succession planning
4. Attendance reporting
5. Accident reporting .
AMUL uses the system centrally in the organisation and over all the plants of the Amul
which is located in various area such as
• Mogar - chocolate plant
• Khatraj plant – cheese plant
• Kanjari plant – cattle feed plant .
The system operates in AMUL for different manner , and with the help of this system
