1.1 Introduction of the Study:
Career is a lifelong assignment, which enables individual to earn money or to
satisfy himself. It is a way of life for a person. A career imposes a number of
responsibilities and duties on an individual. Different careers have different requirements
for example human skills, location, climate, etc. “A career may be thought of as a long-
term project for an individual life. One’s career may be “in” business, law, teaching,
entertainment, professional philanthropy, or something else” (Care, 1984).
According to Care (1984) career is a way of life one lives. Maanen (1977) give
definition of career as a series of related experiences that makes an individual’s life. Olson
and prince (1979) suggest career as a series of steps upward in the organization and see
career as a life time commitment to a specific field or organization.
Career is a term defined by the Oxford English Dictionary: "Course or progress
through life (or a distinct portion of life)" Nosow and Form (1962) provides the following
definitions:
"Sociologically the career refers to any pattern of occupational change (vertical and/or
Horizontal) of any occupational group” (Nosow and Form, 1962).
Consistent with this concept of career, Hall’s (2002) define career as different
attitudes and behaviors that linked with individuals and their work-related experiences and
actions over the life period. Here, career is a work related experience over a person’s life
indicates a long-time action rather than immediate performance and satisfaction.
Sims (1983) says: “To match the job and person, a commensurate frame work for
assessing job demands and personal characteristics is needed.”
Schein (1978) relates career to the career “anchors” an inner feeling of motivation
or a power of inspiration for an individual. He has mentioned that there are a number of
stages in the career cycle including growth, fantasy and exploration. An individual can
reach a realistic career choice by performing a number of jobs and by utilizing his abilities,
interests, thoughts, feelings and skills. “Other perceived important career anchors for
success include organizational stability, identity, geographic security and services”.
Career choice is a name of process that starts during early age. In an age when
students start thinking about making some career choice and continues till the time when
the individual is employed in any organization. Career choice is also influenced by health

and physical performance of an individual. Personality of a person also play an important
role when we talk about or it comes to selecting the right job for an individual. It's become
necessary for all persons to find appropriate careers today not merely for financial
reasons, but also for the satisfaction or excellence of life. By choosing a career that
matches your needs, your personality, you are more likely to perform a job happily.
1.2 Need for the study:
For any organization, having considerable size of human resource segment, managing
human relations assumes equal importance with other areas. Career management is also
an element in contribution of individual satisfaction and organizational health. Discontent
and dissatisfaction in employees if suppressed, even if surfaced and not addressed results
in various problems, ultimately leads to diseconomy in operations. So providing channels
to ventilate the employee opinions, understanding the problem, an organization in fact
constitutes the career management system.
Pearl bottling Pvt. Ltd. Has developed very good size of manpower and to reduce
the dissatisfaction arising from time to time in the career growth; it has evolved a career
management system. So with a motive to understand the……….
 The nature of complaints.

1.3 Significance of the Study:

CHAPTER II
Industry profile and Company profile

2.1 Genesis and Growth:
Non-alcoholic soft drink beverage market can be divided into fruit drinks and soft
drinks. Soft drinks can be further divided into carbonated and non-carbonated drinks.
Colas, lemon and oranges are carbonated drinks while mango drinks come under non-
carbonated category. The soft drinks market till early 1990’s was in hands of domestic
players like Campa, thumps up, limca etc but with the opening up of economy and coming
of MNC players Pepsi and coke the market has come totally under their control.
Worldwide, coke is the leader in carbonated drinks market. In India it is Pepsi, which
scores over coke hut this difference is fast decreasing. Pepsi entered Indian market in
1991. Coke re-entered (after they were thrown out in 1977, by the then central
government) in 1993.
Pepsi has been targeting the youth and the sales have been doing well by sticking
to this youth segment. Coke on the other hand struggled initially in establishing itself in
the market, in a span of 7 years of its operations in the country it has changed its CEO
four times but finally they seem to have started understanding the pulse of Indian
consumers.
Soft drinks are available in glass bottles, aluminum cans and PET bottles for home
consumption. Fountains also dispense then in disposable containers.
Segmentation:
The soft drinks market can be segmented on the basis of place of consumption and
on the basis of type of products. The soft drinks market can be segmented on the basis of
place of consumption divides the market into two parts:
• On premise-80% of the consumption of soft drinks is on premise i.e.
restaurants, railways stations, cinema etc.
• At home the rest 20% of the market compromises of the soft drink purchased
for consumption’ at home.
• The soft drinks market can be segmented on the basis of types of products into
cola products and non-cola products.
• Cola products account for nearly 62% of the total soft drinks market.
• The brands that fall in this category are Pepsi, coca cola, and thumps up, diet
coke, diet Pepsi etc.

• Non-cola segment, which constitutes 36%, can be divided into four categories
based on the type of flavor available, namely
 Orange
 Cloudy lime
 Clear Lime
 Mango
i. Orange flavor based soft drinks constitute around 17% of the market. The segment
is largely dominated by national brands like fanta of coca cola and Miranda orange
of Pepsi co. rest of the market is in hands of smaller brands like crush (earlier of
Cadbury Schweppes and now of coca cola), gold spot etc.
ii. Cloudy lime flavor constitutes 14% of the market and is largely dominated by limca
of coca cola and Miranda lemon of Pepsi co.
iii. Clear lime this segment of the market witnessed good growth initially with all the
players launching their brands in the segment. But now the growth in the segment
has slowed down, the brands available in this segment are 7up, mountain dew of
Pepsi, sprite of coca cola and Canada thy (earlier of Cadbury Schweppes and now
of coca cola). The segment constitutes 3% of the total soft drinks market.
iv. Mango flavor segment constitutes 2% of the total soft drinks market and it directly
competes with mango based fruit drinks like frooti. The leading brands in this
segment are: maazza of coca cola and slice of Pepsi Co.
• There is very thin line of difference between the clear and cloudy lime. The most
obvious feature is that clear lime has to be bottled in green bottles as sunlight
harms the drink and changes the taste. There are some small local brands at city
or regional levels. Most of these are either merging with the two big players (coca
cola and Pepsi) or they command a very small
.

MAJOR PLAYERS IN SOFT DRINK INDUSTRIES:-
The two global majors Pepsi and coca-cola dominate the soft drink market in India.
Coca-cola, which had wound up its India operation during the introduction of the FERA
regime, re-entered India 16 years later in 1993. coca-cola, acquired a major chunk of the
soft drink market by buying out local brands Thumps up, Limca, Maaza and Gold spot
from Pearle Beverages, coca cola has also acquired Cadbury Schweppes soft drink brand
crush, Canada Dry and sport cola in early 1999 and now recently in October it acquired
distribution rights of these brands from IFB Agro limited. Pepsi started a couple of years
before coca cola in 1991. It bought over Mumbai based Duke’s range of soft drink brands.
Both the cola manufacturers come up with their own market share figures and claimed to
have increased their share.
SURVEY REPORT ON RETAILERS IN SOFT DRINK INDUSTRY:-
A survey was conducted to study the retailer’s views of the present market, future
trend and the consumer behavior patterns. The findings of the survey are as follows:
• Retailers started that the consumers are loyal to the particular segment of the soft
drink i.e. cola, orange or lemon. But as far the loyalty for the brands in each
segment is concerned, it is not very significant.
• 43% of the retailers surveyed told that in the soft drinks advertising is the
component in driving sales. While 32% started promotional schemes 20% brand
loyalty as the reason.
• As consumers are not very brand loyal where the purchase of soft drinks is
concerned, the retailer push becomes a critical issue. They usually sell the product
in which they get the maximum benefit. For this, the companies try to offer them
higher margins.
While distributors get margin of Rs. 8-9 per crate (1 crate = 24 bottles) at 3-4% of
MRP, retailers are given a margin of 10-12% of MRP. The retailers are not happy with this,
as the cost refrigeration is very high for soft drinks, To overcome this problem the
companies are offering visi coolers schemes to their main retailers.
GENESIS OF INDIAN SOFT DRINK MARKET:

India having a hot climate has always been a place of variety of drinks to cool, off
from the hot sunny days. Perhaps this aspect has served as a boom to soft drinks market
that made a simple appearance to the middle of hostile people but soon gained as access
that has carried over the past five decades which has also seen the ups and downs of this
thirst quenching market,
With the introduction of liberalization policies, many foreign multinationals have
started business ventures in India. The first attempt to enter India market in the soft
drinks market was made by Cock Pure Drinks Pvt. Ltd. Delhi was the first franchise bottles
of Coca-Cola. Export Corporation in 1950 with Swadeshi Movement started by Janata
party CCEC was asked to reduce its foreign capital holding 40% and delivers the know
how to Indian company. This refused forced CCEC to leave the country in 1977.
With the leaning of Coca-Cola the domestic soft drinks market got a lift and is raise
to capture the Indian market with Parle as the main leader, Gold spot, Thumps-up, Maaza
and Kismat became a house hold name. Its market share grew to 60% in 1991 and it
emerged as the market leader, The first challenge to the supremacy of Pane brands came
from Pepsi cola in May 1990. Pepsi that was in India from 1956-61 had left the country, as
its products were not found acceptable to the Indian public.
COMPANY PROFILE OF PEPSI FOODS INDIA:
Pepsi food India limited drinks is owned by multinational giant of beverages of
company incorporation of New York, USA which has a turnover of $28 billons and an
average sales volume of $10billion in the world. Prior o0fliberalization in 1990, corporation
entered into a joint venture with TATA group company Volta’s with 24% equity under the
Punjab agro industry corporation with 36% equity and with an investment of %95 million.
After LIBERLISATION of our economy, Volta’s share was acquired by leaving only 8% to
the Punjab agro industries and later on it bought all the equity shares and converted food
from a three way joint venture to a fully owned subsidiary.
Pepsi foods India limited is head quartered in New Delhi. It has 11 companies
owned bottling plants and 15 franchisees throughout the country. Company earlier used
Lehar as a prefix to each of its brand names. Later it was asked by the government to
drop the prefix to each of its brand name. later it was asked by the government to drop
the prefix another challenge is that parley has come from coca cola.
Thus parley and coke dominated the Indian soft drink market in the ensuing days.
Coca cola purchased parley’s brand such as thumps up, lima etc., along with its

distribution network in 1993, at present has a market share of 18.5% and ranks number
one in total sales of soft drinks, where as Pepsi has a market share of 47.8% and rank
next.
PBPL was incorporated in 1982 at Madhurawada in Visakhapatam district of Andhra
Pradesh for the purpose of manufacturing soft drinks. It was since then the company
has started commercial production of company cola products. It produced cola, orange
and lemon flavors under the brand names of thrill rush and sprint. It also produces Mc-
Dowell- bagpiper soda. It produced these drinks under franchise agreement, but the
company could not exist in the market due to the stiff competition from parley products.
In February 199, the company singed to manufacture and market the products under
franchise agreements. Franchise is a contract, which gives the company the right to do
the business under the name and image of principal’s according to this agreement, PBPL
has given its consent…….
To manufacture soft drink using the concentrate supplied by Pepsi foods
To sell the soft drinks and prices faced by advertises and market within specified
areas for the products of from April 23rd

Initially four brands viz., seven-up, Miranda and Lehar soda were bottled and distributed
where as slice were supplied by Cuttack plant. In May 1993, a cloudy lemon flavor called
“TEEM” was introduced which was not very well received by may consumers because of
the well established “LIMCA”.
In April 1988 a new cloudy lemon flavor, namely Miranda lemon was introduced
after discounting TEAM. PBPL limited was appointed as franchise as franchise by food
limited, in activities originally constructed by camp-cola soft drink in 1980 at
Madhurawada due to losses suffered camp-cola, the unit became insolvent.
As a result Andhra Pradesh state finance corporation auctioned the premises, in
1990s, after which it was purchased by PBPL. It started production in 19s91, initially it
produced Mc-Dowell company’s brand-THRILL, RUSH, SPRINT,L MC-DOWELL’S SODA AND
BAGPIPER SODA. In February 1992, PBPL signed a memorandum with foods. The product

Pepsi Company in corporation, the 22 billion worth soft drinks, snacks and past
foods company has finally entered the Indian market. The Punjab Agro Industry
Corporation with 36 % equity and Tata Group Company Voltas with 24% equity were the
promoters of Pepsi which itself had 40% equity. Pepsi leaning only 8% to Punjab Agro
Industries acquired later Voltas share.
The Pepsi Company has been using “Lehar” as prefix to each of its brand names.
Later it was allowed by the government to drop the prefix. Another challenge to Pane
came from Coca-Cola. Thus Pepsi, Pane and Coke dominated the Indian soft drink market
in the ensuing days. Coca-Cola merged with Pane in the year 1993.

• The demand for the products brand is reasonably stable.
• The volume of production is adequate for the reasonable
utilization of equipment.
Due to the above reasons, the product layout offers certain advantages, the product cycle
is speeded up since the company follows a continuous operation movement; the cost of
material handling goes low. The total floor space is required by the machine is less than
for other types of plant layout.
PLANT CAPACITY:
The company installed latest up to date automatic plant confirming to plant layout,
the capacity of plant is 24000 bottles per hour i.e., at the speed of 400 bottles per minute.
The months from March to June, the plant is used to its full capacity by running three
shirts every day. Each shift consists of eight hrs of so, during the summer season, the
plant is run round the clock. This is because the demand reaches its peak in these
summer months hence the company has to produce enough bottles o soft drinks at a
speed to keep in pace with the disappearance of soft drinks from the shelves of the
retailers.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS:-
7Soft drinks may be carbonated or non-carbonated. For carbonated 4 drinks
carbonation forms a critical part of the process. In carbonation carbon dioxide is dissolved
in the water, which is used in manufacturing the drink, Normally the ingredients in soft
drinks are as follows — acidulate (crifnic, malice or phosphoric acid), sweetener, flavor
and preservative.
MODERN MANUFACTURES
The Delhi based public sector under taking launched cola drink under brand name
of “77’ (Double Seven) in 1977. It has launched Orange and Lemon flavors. Pepsi Foods
(P) Ltd.
Pepsi, which was in India from 1 956-6 1, had left this country, as its products

Cola, Mango, Orange, Clear Lemon and Cloudy Lemon flavours under the brand names of
Lehar Pepsi. Slice, Mirinda, Lehar 7-up and teem respectively. Recently, Pepsi Company
has acquired the Dukes Company of Bombay.
PRODUCTION SCHEDULE:
The production schedule is fixed by taking into consideration the present or current
market demand. It also caters to the availability of empty bottles and also the inventory
position of filled up bottles of varying flavor any defects are noticed the production is

suspended and the corrective measures are taken so as to set right the bottling, process
irregularities. ours. The production schedule for each brand fixed daily-i.e. filling up of the
bottles of each brand and flavor. This has an advantage wherein the branded products can
be manufactured one at a time. The glass bottles used for filling the soft drink are of the
volume capable of containing 30ml of soft drink.
There are also bottle of 200ml, 500 ml 1.5 liter and 2 liter capacities to fill by soft
drinks.
QUALITY CONTROL:
PBPL takes great care to maintain the quality by controlling the products in their
factory. The bottles are usually examined for impurities continuously as the bottles move
out. Samples are checked after every 10 minutes of the production time by the chemist
for its quality and hygienic condition. The chemical analysis is also make for flavors and
the gas content is also checked. Further samples from each batch are dispatched to the
affiliated parent agency company in each week for quality checkup, moreover, the agency
of the company also lifts samples from the market at random for quality check up at
anytime to make sure that the quality is maintained to the exact standard of the parent
company.
At the end of the production schedule, daily all the equipment plant floor and wet
patches are cleared with bleaching powder or some other solution. The standard o hygiene
maintained inside the production steps are commendable.

2.6 Marketing Functional Department
MARKETING DEPARTMENT:
At the time release of the marketing strategy is the director, a very well
experienced and well groomed personality with over 15 year of experience in bottling
units. He is very good strategist and his decisions are always the best assets to the
marketing department.
He is responsible for directing products aggressively in to the market. The sales
manager ably steers the wheels of soft drink sin the entire territory. Before the onset of
summer two capable hands are given as assistants to the sales manager, and in addition
to the eight other sales executives are recruited to hammer out the volatile market.
The success of any enterprise directly depends upon the success of its marketing
function. Until 1990, a unit that was considered as sick is now slowly transformed into a
successful enterprise. The people behind the success are the marketing personnel M/s

only two sales supervisors each. The management of the unit is putting extra emphasis on
Visakhapatnam district. One reason for this is that Visakhapatnam is now a day maintains
the fastest growth rate in the entire Asian continents. Hence, the management determined
to catch up with the potential marketing of this steel city.
2.7 SALES AND DISTRIBUTION:
Today’s sales executives are professional; they plan, build, and maintain effective
organizations and design and utilize efficient control procedures.
SALES MANAGEMENT –DEFINED:
The planning, direction and control of personal selling, including recruiting,
selecting equipping assigning routing, supervision, paying and motivating as these tasks
apply to the personal sales force.
EVOLUTION OF SALES DEPARTMENT:
Prior to the industrial revolution there is not problem with selling because the
industries use to produce less quantity of goods, but after the industrial revolution newly
built machinery were truing out the quantities then the problem of sales marketing raised.
SEGMENTATION:-
The soft drink market can be segmented as the basis of place of consumption or on
the basis of type of products. The segmentation as the basis of place of consumption
divides the market into two parts:
 On-premise 80% of the consumption of soft drinks is on premise i.e., restaurants,
railway stations, cinema etc.
 At home the rest 20% of the market compromises of the soft drink purchased for
consumption at home. The market channels can be segmented on the basis of types
of products into cola products non cola products.
 Cola products account for nearly 6 1-62% of the total soft drinks market. The brands
that fall in this category are Pepsi, Coca-Cola, Thumps-up, Diet Coke, Diet Pepsi etc

 Non-Cola segment which constitutes 36% can be divided into 4 categories based on
the types of flavors available namely:
 Orange: flavor based soft drinks constitute around 17% of the market. The
segment is largely dominated by national brands like Fanta of Coca-Cola and Miranda
Orange of Pepsi co, which collectively form 15% of the market rest of the market is
in hands of smaller brands like ‘Crush’ (earlier of Cadbury Schweppes and now of
Coca-Cola), ‘Gold Spot’ etc.
 Cloudy Lime: flavor constitutes 14% of the market and is largely dominated by
Limca of Coca-Cola and Miranda Lemon of Pepsi Co. Limca is the market leader with
around 70-75% of the market followed by Mirinda Lemon
 Clear Lime: This segment of the market witnessed good growth initially with all the
players launching their brands in the segment. But now the growth in the segment
has slowed down. The brands available in this segment are 7-up of Pepsi, Spent of
Coca-Cola and Canada Dry (earlier of Cadbury Schweppes and now of Coca-Cola).
The segment constitutes 3% of the total soft drinks market.
 Mango: This flavor segment constitutes 2% of the total soft drinks market and it
directly competes with mango based fruit drinks like Frooti. The leading brands in
this segment are Maaza of Coca-Cola, Mango (earlier of Dukes now Pepsi Co.) and
Slice of Pepsi Co.
There is very thin line of difference between the Clear and Cloudy Lime. The most
obvious features is that Clear Lime has to be bottled in green bottles as sunlight
harms the drink and changes the taste. There are some small local brands at city
or regional levels. Most of these are either merging with the two big players.
(Coca-Cola, Pepsi) or they command a very small less than 3% of the total market
in their respective areas.
MARKET SIZE AND GROWTH:-
Soft drink market size for FY 2000 was around 270 mn cases (648mn bottles). The
market, which was witnessing 5-6% growth in the early 90’s and even slower growth at
around 2-3% in late 80’s.
Presently the market growth has slowed down with growth rate of 7- 8% per
annum compared to 22% growth rate in the previous year. The market size for FY20! is
expected to be 7000 mn bottles. The market growth of 22% till last year has got stifled
due to high excise duty of 40% leading to higher price of the end product.

MARKET CHARACTERISTICS:-
The soft drink market is highly skewed in terms of places of consumption, in terms
of regional distribution of soft drink flavors as well as in terms of SKUS. While 80% of the
consumption in impulse based outside home 20% come from consumption at home, This
trend is slowly changing with increase in occasion bed sales. Changing life style, increasing
urbanization and impact of liberalization has slowly and gradually started moving the
market from impulse to occasion led and has refrigeration led consumption.
The market preferences are highly regionally based. While cool drinks have main
markets in metro cities and northern states of UP, Punjab, Haryana etc., Orange flavored
drinks are popular in southern states. Sodas too are sold largely in southern states
besides sales through bars. Western markets have preference towards mango-Flavored
drinks. Diet coke presently constitutes just 0.7% of the total carbonated beverage market.
In terms if SKUS the market is skewed towards 300 ml which constitutes around
80-85% of the market, rest is the form of other pack sizes, but with increasing occasion
led and home refrigeration led consumption the sales of bigger SKUS like more than 11 ir.
Pack sizes has increased this has led to increase in contribution from PET bottle sales to
15% of the total turnover in FY00, and most of these PET bottle sales, up to 75% are in
urban areas.

Another skew ness is in terms of the time of the year when the consumption takes
places. Most of the sales of soft drinks take place during summers while just5-6% of total
sales takes place in winners. In summers the high season lasts 70-75 days, which
contributes, more than 50% of the total yearly sales.
The distribution network of Coca-Cola had 6.5 lacks outlets across the country-in
FY00 that the company is planning to increase to 8 lacks by FY01. On the other hand
PepsiCo’s distribution network had 6 lack outlets across the country during FY00, which it
is planning to increase to 7.5 lacks by FY01.
MAJOR PLAYERS AND MARKET SHARES:-
The two global majors Pepsi and Coca-Cola dominate the soft drink market in
India. Coca-Cola, which had winded up its India operations during the introduction of the
FERA regime, re-entered India 16 years later in 1993. Coca-Cola acquired a major chunk
of the soft drink marked by buying out local brands Thumps-up, Limca and Gold spot from
Pane beverages.
Coca-Cola had also acquired Cadbury Schweppes soft drinks brands crush, Canada
Dry and sport cola in early 1999 and now recently in Oct 2000 it acquired distribution
rights of these brands from IFB Agro limited.
Pepsi although started a couple of years before Coca-Cola in 1991 has a lower
market share today. It has bought over Mumbai based Duke’s range of soft drink brands.
Both the Cola manufacturing come up with their own market share figures and claim to
have increased their share.
Recently in August 00 Pepsi claimed to have increased its market share for first five
months of calendar year 2000, to 49% from earlier levels of 47.3%. While coke claims to
have increased its in the market to 57% in the same period from 55% in the
corresponding period last year. Coke figures are based on ORG’s date while that of Pepsi
are based on 1MRG data.

PEPSI - COLA COMPANY:-
Catles Braddham, M.C. druggist who first formulated Pepsi-Cola, founded Pepsi
Company’s beverages business at the turn of the century. Brand Pepsi and other Pepsi
cola products including diet Pepsi, Pepsi one, Mountain Dew, Slice and Mug brands account

totaling about $ 56 billion.
Outside the United States, Pepsi cola company’s soft drinks operations include the
business of seven-up international. Pepsi cola beverages are available in about 170
countries. Pepsi cola began selling its products internationally in the year 1934 with its
operations in Canada. Operations grew rapidly beginning in the 1950’s. Today Pepsi-Cola
products account for about a quarter of all soft drinks sold internationally. Key Pepsi-Cola
international markets include Argentina, Brazil, China, India, Mexico, Philippines, Saudi
Arabia, Spain, Thailand and United Kingdom.

Pepsi cola provides advertising, marketing, sales and promotional support to Pepsi-
Cola bottlers and food service customers. This included some of the World’s best and most
recognized advertising. New advertising and existing promotions keep Pepsi-Cola brands
young. The company manufactures and sells soft drink concentrate to Pepsi-Cola bottlers.
The company also provides fountain beverages products.
PEPSI LOGOS:-
The Pepsi logo has changed many times over the years. Here’s a chronological
history of the various logos.

PEPSI FOODS (P) LTD:-
Pepsi, which was in India from 1956-61, had left this country, as its products were
not acceptable to the Indian Public. But in 1990 it entered the Indian market in
collaboration with Punjab Agro Industries Corporation (PAIC) and Voltas. Pepsi produces
Cola, Mango, Orange, Clear Lemon and Cloudy Lemon flavors under the brand names of
Lehar Pepsi. Slice, Mirinda, Lehar 7-up and teem respectively. Recently, Pepsi Company
has acquired the Dukes Company of Bombay.
CADBURY SCHWEPPES:-
Schweppes has launched 3 brands in (1995) four months and in Delhi, their
Orange Crush has picked up a 30% market share against Coke’s Fanta, Pepsi and Mirinda.
The other two brands at Canada Bry and Schweppes Tonic water Sunkist. This British
beverage gains also has stake in Dr. Pepper’s.
BACKGROUND:-
Non-alcoholic soft drink beverage market can be divided into fruit drinks and soft
drinks. Soft drinks can be further divided into carbonated and non-carbonated drinks.
Cola, Lemon and Oranges are carbonated drinks. Whole Mango drinks come under non-
carbonated category. The soft drinks market till early 1990’s was in hands of domestic
players like Campa, Thumps-up, Limca etc., but with opening up of economy and coming
of MNC players Pepsi and Coke the market has come totally under their control. While
World wide Coke is the leader in carbonated drinks market in India, it is Pepsi which
scores over coke but this difference is fast decreasing (courtesy huge Ad - spending by
both the players).
Pepsi entered Indian 1993. Pepsi has been targeting in products towards youth and
it has struck right chord with the market and the sales have been doing well by sticking to

this youth bandwagon. Coke on the other hand struggled initially in establishing it self in
the market. In a span of 7 years of its operations in the country it changed its CEO four
times but finally they seen to have started understanding the pulse of Indian
consumption. Fountains also dispense them in disposable container
ADVANTAGES AND LIMITATIONS OF FRANCHISE NETWORK:-
ADVANTAGES:-
 Reduced investment levels in manufacturing equipments.
 Savings on management time.
 Regular supply of components.
 Reduced interfacing and dealing with labour.
LIMITATIONS:-
 Large volumes
 Financial Support
 Quality
RETAILER’S PERCEPTION:-
A survey was conducted to study the retailer’s views of the present market
, future trend and the consumer behavior patterns. The bindings of the survey are
as follows:
 Retailers stated that the consumers are loyal to the particular segment of the soft
drink i.e. Cola, Orange or Lemon. But as far the loyalty for the brands in each
segment is concerned, it is not very significant.
 43% of the retailers surveyed told that in soft drinks advertising is the key
component in drinking sales. While 32% stated promotional schemes and 20%
brand loyalty as the reasons.
 As consumers are not very brand loyal where the purchase of soft drinks is
concerned, the retailer push becomes a critical issue. They usually sell the product
in which they get the maximum benefit. For this, the companies try to offer them

higher margins. While distributors get margin of Rs. 8—9 per crate (1 crate 24
bottles) at 3— 4% MRP, retailers are given a margin of 10—12% of MRP. The
retailers not happy with this as the cost of refrigeration is very high for soft drinks,
to over come this problem the companies visi-coolers schemes to their main
retailers.
SCENARIO OF SOFT DRINKS INDUSTRY IN INDIA:-
This year the season started off early with Pepsi and Coca-Cola introducing diet
cans for the first time in India. By Buying over local competition, the two American Cola
giants have cleared up the arena and are backing all their power behind the Indian
franchisees of their globe girdling brands. They are vying with each other to capture the
market by increasing the capital base in the country. It Pepsi will be investing Rs. 300
Crores, coke will be pumping in eight times as much Rs. 2,400 crores. The total
investment is a size and scale that the Rs. 1, 800 crores soft drinks business has never
been before. Both players see an enonnous potential in this country, where swigging
carbonated beverages is still considered a treat, virtually a luxury.
The soft drink industry in India has annual sales exceeding Rs. 12,000 crores and
most of the bottling companies have been doing flourishing business. In the past five
years all the bottling companies have grown and expanded their activities in the market
and by placing more and more of their soft drink cases in the market and by improving
refrigeration, supply of packaging, taste and concentration is changing the industry into a
dynamic one liking for non-conventional foods and beverages there is good possibility that
per capita, consumption will go up. Soft drinks some mainly in three flavors, Cola, Lemon
and Orange. According to estimates, cola dominates the market with 40% market share.
Lemon flavored drinks come second with 30% market share and Orange flavored
drinks third with a 20% market share. Other flavors account for the rest of the market.
Also, the Government of India considers soft drinks as non-essential commodity. Thus,
heavy excise duty is levied on bottled soft drink.
In a country like India where more than 70% of the population exists below the
poverty line, the trading activities of soft drinks industry is concentrated in and around big
and cities where the purchasing power of people is considered to be comparatively high.
MAINTENANCE:-
The low consumption of soft drinks in India may be attributed to the fact the prices
of soft drinks are inflated due to high excise duties and taxes. A bottler must pay as much

as 37% of price per case as excise duty, sales and turnover tax. A further 10% goes into
expenditure on local advertising and sales promotion. Distribution and transport cost take
care of another 10% Raw material cost, concentrate sugar, citric-acid, bottle cost, etc.,
and eat off another 13/0. Production in terms of fuel, power maintenance and labour
account for another 14%. This lea’ the bottlers a margin of a 14% & 4% of this would go
into over-heads and interest charges, trimming down the margin to shrimphy 4%-5%.
Since the retail price of a bottle of a 200 ml soft drink ranges between Rs. 5 to 6,300 ml
soft drink ranges between Rs. 9 to 10. A bottling operation is variable only with large
volumes. However, the cola giants feel that per capita consumption can only go up and
up. As incomes, so do life styles, a pattern they have seen in many of the 195 countries
they sell their universal products in.
The fizzy drinks industry longs in a 10% growth on an average with estimated
sales of 140 millions cases (one case 24 bottles of 300 ml each). These are heady growth
figures the industry was both surprise by and unprepared for.
Bottles are disappearing from the shelves faster then they can be replaced. In peak
season, they found themselves short of capacity. Even though they were working three
shifts a day that is round the clock production. They had to turn around their trucks faster
to satisfy the great Indian thirst.
Industry sources put down the main reason for growth as high competitive activity.
Certainly, until Coco-Cola entered the scene, the business was growing at a fairly pace of
5%. The increase in the number of cases reflects higher demand, but does not quite
accurately measure the fact that so many more liters of the fizzy stuff is being sold, but
bottle sizes too been appeared from 250m1 to 200 ml. With growth rates zooming into
double digits, bottlers have been propelled into expanding capacities. With their big Time
pans, the MNCs have changed the face of this business, long dominated by small time
business men. The Cola makers with their ambitious targets and in order to reach them
have to build capacity infrastructure and also make their bottles more available and
affordable. There are 3, 00,000 retailers stocking soft drinks in India. Also soft drinks
which retail anywhere between Rs. 9.00 and 1 0.00 expensive when measured against
purchasing power. According to our study, it takes an Indian 1.5 hours of work to be able
buy a bottle, in other countries the norm being only 5 minutes. As the soft drink
manufactures concur their strategies, keeping an eye on each other, the clear winner of
the soft drinks is so fat the consumer.
COCA-COLA PARLE:-

Coca-Cola Export Corporation which left India in 1977 has re-entered Indian soft
drink. It has tied up with the Pane group which owns Thumps-up, Limca, Maaza, Citra and
Gold-spot. Coca-Cola along with its original brands Coke, Fanta is maintaining even the
Pane’s branch of soft drinks.

During the survey it was found that the knowledge about the schemes provided by
the company to the account is less Some outlets don’t know about the schemes. The
explosive growth of global trade and international competition lead to globalization which
is the result of technological change This decade has witnessed remarkable advances in
the availability of information and the speed of communication. Both globalization and
technological changes open up many new opportunities in Market place offer good
marketing Market success goes to those companies which matched to the current
environmental imperatives today’s markets. are changing at an incredible pace these
changes are throwing companies into a state of confusion regarding strategy. To protect
their profits, companies have primarily responded by cutting those costs, re-engineering
their process and downsizing their work forces. Yet even companies that succeeded in
cutting their costs may fail to increase their revenue if they lack marketing vision and
marketing know how.

CHAPTER – 3
Theoretical framework of career
management

3.1 INTRODUCTION ABOUT CAREER MANAGEMENT
Career Management is the combination of structured planning and the active
management choice of one's own professional career. The outcome of successful career
management should include personal fulfillment, work/life balance, goal achievement and
financial assurity.
Effective human resource management encompasses career planning, career
development and succession planning. An organization without career planning and career
development initiatives is likely to encounter highest rate of attrition, causing much harm
to their plans and programmes. Similarly without succession planning, manning of
vacancies, particularly at higher levels, become difficult. With the increase scope for job
mobility and corporate race for global headhunting of good performers, it is now a well-
established fact that normal employment span for key performers remains awfully short.
At times it is even shorter than 3 years. This again strengthens the need for effective
career planning, career development and succession planning.
3.1.1 MEANING AND DEFINITION OF CAREER:
Career is a sequence of attitudes and behavior associated with the series of job and
work related activities over a person’s life time. As the literal definition of career focuses
on individually perceived sequence, to be more accurate, career may be either individual-
centered organization-centered. The word career covers all types of employment ranging
from semi-skilled through skilled, and semi professional to professional. The term careers
have often been restricted to suggest an employment commitment to a single trade skill,
profession or business firm for the entire working life of a person. In recent years,

however, career now refers to changes or modifications in employment during the
foreseeable future.
There are many definitions by management scholars of the stages in the
managerial process. The following classification system with minor variations is widely
used:
1. Development of overall goals and objectives,
2. Development of a strategy (a general means to accomplish the selected
goals/objectives),
3. Development of the specific means (policies, rules, procedures and activities) to
implement the strategy, and Systematic evaluation of the progress toward the
achievement of the selected goals/objectives to modify the strategy, if necessary.
3.1.2 Goals/objectives Development
The career management process begins with setting goals/objectives. A relatively
specific goal/objective must be formulated. This task may be quite difficult when the
individual lacks knowledge of career opportunities and/or is not fully aware of their talents
and abilities. However, the entire career management process is based on the
establishment of defined goals/objectives whether specific or general in nature.
The time horizon for the achievement of the selected goals/objectives - short term,
medium term or long term - will have a major influence on their formulation.
1. Short term goals (one or two years) are usually much more specific and limited in
scope. Short terms goals are, of course, are easier to formulate.
2. Intermediate goals (3 to 5 years) tend to be less specific and more open ended
than short term goals. Both intermediate and long term goals are more difficult to
formulate than short term goals because there are so many unknowns about the
future.
3. Long term goals (5+ years), of course, are the most fluid of all. Lack of life
experience and knowledge about potential opportunities and pitalls make the
formulation of long term goals/objectives very difficult. Long range
goals/objectives, however, may be easily modified as additional information is

received without a great loss of career efforts because of experience/knowledge
transfer from one career to another.
4. Making career choices and decisions – the traditional focus of careers interventions.
The changed nature of work means that individuals may now have to revisit this
process more frequently now and in the future, more than in the past.
5. Managing the organizational career – concerns the career management tasks of
individuals within the workplace, such as decision-making, life-stage transitions,
dealing with stress etc.
6. Managing 'boundary less' careers – refers to skills needed by workers whose
employment is beyond the boundaries of a single organization, a work style
common among, for example, artists and designers.
7. Taking control of one's personal development – as employers take less
responsibility, employees need to take control of their own development in order to
maintain and enhance their employability.
3.1.3 Significance and advantages of career development:
1. It reduces employee turnover by providing increase promotional avenues
2. It improves employee’s morale and motivation.
3. It enables organizations to man promotional vacancies internally, thereby,
provide opportunities to reduce the cost of managerial recruitment.
4. It ensures better utilization of employees’ skills to provide increased work
satisfaction to employee.
5. It makes employee adaptable to the changing recruitment of the organization.
6. It reduces the industrial disputes related to promotional matters and thereby
provides opportunity to the organization to sustain harmonious industrial
relations.
7. Career development program being an objective description of career
progression, it ensures equitable promotional decisions even for women and
minorities in an organization.
3.1.4 Purpose and objectives of career development:
1. To attract and retain effective persons in an organization.
2. To utilize human resources optimally.
3. To improve morale and motivation level of employees.

4. To reduce employee turnover.
5. To practice a balanced promotion from within policy
6. To make employees adaptable to changes.
7. To increase employees loyalty and commitment to the organizations.
8. To maintain harmonious industrial relations.
9. To inculcate equitable employment practices providing equal career
progression opportunities to women and minorities.
3.2 DIFFERENT STAGES OF CAREER DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
In order to design suitable career development programme, it is necessary to
understand the different stages of an individual employee. Actual stages from individual to
individual for obvious difference in perceived internal career. However, career
development stages, keeping in view the general requirements of people at different
hierarchical stages, may be grouped under following four categories.
1. EXPLORATORY STAGE:
This stage starts when a new employee joins the organization. An employee with
his qualification and knowledge when joins an organization finds him in an apparent
mismatch condition which even cannot be set right with induction programme of the
organization. It takes quite some time for him after thorough training to become
adaptable with the organization and more particularly with his job assignment.
Therefore, it is essential for the organization to sustain the behavioral as well as
operational deficiencies to help him to develop in the course of time. The best solution at
this stage is to allow the new entrant to perform some specific job and to confer freedom
in functioning. Some companies even allow the new entrant to undergo a compulsory job
rotation for reasonable time period. The purpose of such job rotational is to allow the
employee to select his preferred job from a wide range of available jobs in the
organization. However, for obvious functional specialties and different educational
requirements, such scheme is not successful in Indian organizations.
2. ESTABLISHMENT STAGE:

After a new entrant chooses his career from different given alternatives, he needs
to be provided with a regular feedback on his performance. Such performance feedback
enables the new employee to understand effectiveness of his performance and at the
same time he can also initiate required corrective action to make good of his functional
deficiencies. A successful career development process at establishment stage, therefore,
is important to retain employees in the organization and at the same time to develop a
sense of loyalty and commitment to the organizations.
3. MAINTENANCE STAGE:
This is a mid – career stage for employees, who strive hard to retain their
established name and fame. Therefore, at this stage employees need to put their
continuous efforts for self development. For an organization, career development process
at this stage, therefore, calls for renewing and updating the skills of employees
particularly in the context of changing environment to help employees to overcome their
mid career crises. Therefore, this stage is crucial and unless the organization adopts
suitable career development programme, it may face high employee turnover, who are in
their mid age group.
4. STAGE OF DECLINE:
Employees at this stage being prepared for retirement, get scared from
possible threat of reduced role of responsibilities in the organization. Such complexity is
behaviorally associated with old age of employees which unless set right through suitable
career development programme, may even render such employees in efficient or misfit for
the organization. Career development process at this stage, therefore, should aim at
helping the employees to get mentally prepared for retirement rituals, particularly to
prepare them to accept a reduced role and responsibilities, so that, they can find them
accommodative with family and society in later for their life.
3.3 PERFOMANCE APPRASIAL AS CAREER DEVELOPMENT
Performance appraisal is a part of career development. The latest mantra being
followed by organizations across the world being – "get paid according to what you
contribute" – the focus of the organizations is turning to performance management and
specifically to individual performance. Performance appraisal helps to rate the
performance of the employees and evaluate their contribution towards the organizational

goals. Performance appraisal as Career Development leads to the recognition of the work
done by the employees, many a times by the means of rewards and appreciation etc. It
plays the role of the link between the organization and the employees’ personal career
goals. Potential appraisal, a part of Performance appraisal, helps to identify the hidden
talents and potential of the individuals. Identifying these potential talents can help in
preparing the individuals for higher responsibilities and positions in the future. The
performance appraisal process in itself is developmental in nature.
Performance appraisal is also closely linked to other HR processes like helps to
identify the training and development needs, promotions, demotions, changes in the
compensation etc. A feedback communicated in a positive manner goes a long way to
motivate the employees and helps to identify individual career developmental plans.
Based on the evaluation, employees can develop their career goals, achieve new levels of
competencies and chart their career progression. Performance appraisal encourages
employees to reinforce their strengths and overcome their weaknesses.
3.4 Career Planning
Career planning is a subset of career management. Career planning applies the
concepts of Strategic planning and Marketing to taking charge of one's professional future.
3.4.1 Career planning and career development process:
The dynamics and complexities of career development process have been made
amply clear through earlier discussions. It is clear that career development process cannot
be undertaken in isolation. Some issues are to be taken care of by the organization itself,
while some others are concerning the individual employees. Thus an improved career
planning process is the joint responsibility of both the organization and the employee.
Internal career needs (of individual employee), therefore, need to be integrated with the
external career opportunities (of the organization). Unfortunately, organizations do not
interact with the employees to understand their perceived career needs, instead they
depend on guess work to assume the needs, motives and anchors and move them around
on discretion. Such practices, therefore, lead to employees’ dissonance. Thus for having

good and improved career development process it is necessary both for the organization
and the employees to understand each other’s need and opportunities.
Career Development process should be made compatible to the changing needs of
the employees in their life cycle. These calls for creating flexible opportunity structures
and career paths to enable employees to identify them with such role positions at different
stages of their life-cycle.new employees should have adequate opportunities to gain on-
the-job knowledge and experience, so also to undergo training and education programs
for enriching job skills.
Improved career development process should also appreciate changing social
values with respect to work, life and leisure. Work, per se, is differently perceived by
different people. For some, it is a source of self-fulfillment, creative pursuit, future growth
and development, rising to the higher corporate ladder, etc. different employees is at
different places in the Maslow’s Hierarchical Needs ladder. Hence, different yardsticks
should be employed for each employee depending upon his/her perception of values.
Career Development process, therefore, should consider these aspects, or otherwise, the
whole exercise will suffer from the problem of employee dissonance.
3.4.2 Steps of career planning process:
Career planning process involves different activities or step in an organization. Such steps
are listed below:
Preparing Personnel Skills Inventories
The first step is to prepare personnel skills inventories. Such skills inventory is an
information system which contains data on employee’s skills and career goals. In addition,
there are required data banks, which provide following information.
• The organization structure and the persons manning different positions in the
organization, their age, education, experience, training and career goals, status,
duties and responsibilities.
• The performance record and ratings, inter-personal abilities of the employee.
• Their preferred location, desires and constraints.

• Whether the present strength is short or surplus to the requirements, if it is short,
the extent of shortage at different levels and the organizational resources
available to make good such shortages in future. If it is surplus, the measures
available to redeploy them through proper restructuring. Future requirement of
manpower for expansion of the company or for natural wastages like; death,
disability, retirement, discharge and dismissal, resignation, etc.
In most of the organizations, such information are computerized and
periodically reviewed and updated. After preparation of personnel skill inventories and
additional data, it is necessary to develop career paths for employees.
Career paths are logical mapping out of jobs, which represent a potential
progression tract that an employee may follow over time. Such mapping of job
progressions are done in the form of career ladders clubbing together similar lines of
occupation n job families. Job families are groups of homogenous job, i.e., job with similar
characteristics. An illustrative model of career paths for marketing jobs is presented
below.
3.5 FUTURE OF CAREER PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT IN INDIA –
ORGANISATIONAL ISSUES
In India we do not have any empirical studies worth the name on Career Planning
and Development. New challenges like, market globalization, deregulation and total
quality management have now made it imperative for organizations to restructure their
career planning and development programs to retain best talents. Companies like; Bajaj
Auto, Arvind Mills, Gujarat Ambuja, Reliance Industries, Bombay Dyeing, Hindustan Lever,
Crompton Greaves. TATA’s, etc. have now brought in many perceptive changes which can
be listed as below:
Most of the companies no consider employees as their important assets. The
concept of total quality management considers every employee as customers (internal) to
the organization. Making employees entrepreneurs for the organization and empowering
them, I no compelling the organization to re-design career progression tracks to attract
and retain the best employees. Making people psychologically prepared for ownership,

some organizations are also experimenting with flatter organization structure with
adequate decentralization.
Organizations are now more keen to get rid of those employees who are now
redundant due to changing requirements, by offering golden handshake, rather than
developing these persons for better redeployment. In addition, organizational
restructuring programmes are now rendering many employees surplus and it has become
a major problem for the organizations to redeploy employees in restructured jobs.
career panic has now become a global issue. most of the organizations fearing employee
turnover, are now working on designing jobs which can offer employees recognition,
creativity (by lateral transfers etc.), challenges and empowerment.
3.6 SUCCESSION PLANNING:
Growth and survival of the organization are the responsibilities of the top
management. To fulfill such responsibilities each organization need to plan management
succession. Succession planning is done in different time frames to ensure the availability
of right managerial personnel at the right time in right positions for continuing
organizational vitality and strength. Most of the organizations plant for immediate
requirements matching with their budgets and business plans. To avoid this, good
organizations try to make succession planning in three different time frames, i.e.
immediate (within one year), intermediate (1 to 5 years) and long range (beyond 5
years). Prevailing managerial attitude, i.e. a potential threat from successor, which may
not sustain the desire of the managers to cling to their chairs, also stand against the
success of the succession planning.
3.6.1 Steps of succession Planning:
The first step is to prepare and develop a management staffing plan for all
anticipated needs in different time frames. For important position at top managerial level,
such planning should be done even for shorter duration, keeping in view the potential
threat from eventual natural wastages and so also from job switch and change (which has
now increased many times for obviously enhanced scope of job mobility). Other effects of
external factors like economic factors, overall man power factor should also be considered
while making such plan.
The second step is staffing and development. Staffing is concerned with
recruitment, selection and placement. Selection and placement may be either done from

outside or from within the organization through promotion and transfer/. In many
organizations, management adopts what they call grooming process for filling up
important managerial positions. A manager is groomed by giving temporary assignments,
attaching him/her with the highest officer are sometimes designating to the potential
promote as Officer on Special duty.
The third step is to ensure congenial organizational environment to retain the
desired managerial personnel. Unless this is done, the whole exercise for developing a
successor may have to be repeated.
The fourth step is to develop a good performance appraisal system to get feedback
on managerial performance and to review their progress and short false.
Preparation of management resource inventory is the final step in the succession
planning. Such inventory contain details of personal data, performance records, skills,
potential, career goals and career parts of managerial personnel.
