INTRODUCTION TO GOETZE INDIA LIMITEDPATIALA

Bahadurgarh! The ancient fort with a history of 500 years now over looks one of the

most modern industries in the country manufacturing highly sophisticated automobile

components viz piston rings, cylinders, liners ,pistons, gudgeons pins situated app. 9

K.M. from the city of Patiala.

“Escort” was incorporated as a private limited company in Oct.'1944 at Lahore under the

name of Escorts (Agents) Pvt. Ltd. And the later converted into a public limited

company in Dec.'1959.The name was changed to Escorts in Jan'1960.H.P.Nanda founded

the company; the current C.M.D is Anil Nanda. An escort has spent the last few years

cleaning up its corporate structure, a process, which is now more or less complete. HP

Nanda of the Escort group in technical and financial collaboration with GOETZE

WORKE FRIEDRICH GOETZE AG, GERMANY promoted GIL in 1954, for making

piston rings and cylinder liners. In the 90's the company diversified into supermarkets,

oilseeds processing and leather garments for exports. GIL commands over half of the

market for piston rings and cylinder liners and has strong presence in the replacement

segment ,which constitutes two thirds of the total market for piston rings .With technical

inputs from its German partner ,GIL has started making high value rings, which fetch

higher margins. GIL also supplies rings to stationary Diesel engines and air/gas

compressor manufacturers. At one point, it had two separate company making tractors,

apart from myriad joint venture, which were making everything from auto components to

motorcycles to construction equipments. The motorcycle business has also been

rationalized and recast into separate profit centers. The pay-off should come through in

the coming years. The company will benefit from the extensive restructuring it has

carried out liberalized. Escorts, the company is presently into farm equipment

automobile components, railway ancillaries, etc. As a part of restructuring business

1994-1995, the company hived off certain divisions into separate entities-Escorts

communications and Escorts construction equipment, whereby; Escorts communications

and the manufacture of construction equipment by Escorts construction Equipment are

carrying on manufacture of EPABX systems. They are wholly owned subsidiaries of the

company. Other subsidiaries are Escorts JCB, escorts class, Escorts Automotive and

Escotel Mobile Communication. Most if its subsidiaries have foreign collaborations.

Escorts Tractors, a group of company, was merged with the company in 1995-1996.

A 50:50 joint venture-Escorts Yamaha Motor, with Yamaha Motor Company (Japan),

has been formed, for carrying on the two-wheeler business, which was being carried on

by Escorts prior to restructuring. During the year 1996-1997, Escorts hived off its piston

business to Escorts Mahle Ltd, A joint venture with its erstwhile technical collaborator

Mahle Group. The supermarket business was transferred to a new JV, Escorts Mahle Ltd.

The Delhi based tractor and motorcycle manufacturer, seems to have suffered a decline

in its sales and net profit in its last fiscal largely because of 70 day strike at its factory.

Given that this way was a one time incident, the company can be expected to show a sign

of revival after a year of stagnation in fiscal 1998-99.The company’s overseas

investment plan is in view to explore the possibility of establishing manufacturing,

trading, joint ventures and other operation overseas. It has signed a MoU in February this

year with long manufacturing (NC) Inc., North Carolina, and USA for a joint venture

company, Long Agribusiness LLC, for manufacture assembly and sale of tractors.

An Escort is a creation of Nanda brothers with construction vision committed and

determined. The Escorts group under the dynamic leadership of Mr.Anil Nanda

(Chairman and MD) is a professionally managed multi product organization.

The Escorts was founded at Lahore in Pakistan on October 1944 as an Agency house

Escorts. The Escorts Agents Lodi came into being with a vision that was nurtured by

Mr.Hari Nanda, Mr.Yudi Nanda, Mr.C.K.Hazari and Mr.Ranjit Singh. In its infancy it

suffered severe blow because of partition of India in 1947.However,the founder members

with firm determination shifted their operations to New Delhi, the capital of our country

and in the short span steered the concern to a place of recognition, which is crystal clear

performance.

After partition in 1947, Nanda bros. continued the agency for electric products for

wasting house and in the mean time undertaking another agency for heavy machinery. In

1949, following the devaluation of a rupee the company found that their agency is not

working up to the mark. They found that their major irrigation and industrial projects

after independence.

Grabbing the opportunity-Escorts took an agency for heavy machinery from various

countries like USA, UK, Germany, Yugoslavia, Japan, and Poland. During this time

Escorts (agents) Ltd and Escorts (agriculture and machines Ltd) were formed.

Yudi Nanda looked after the second company, which imported and sold "Massey

Ferguson" tractors in India. With a fraternity of 22,000 employees, 20 manufacturing

plants and a turn over exceeding Rs.3, 000 crores , the Escorts group today runs among

the top industrial giants. In the country there was a persistent annual growth rate of 27%

of the past decade. It is the fifth largest engineering company among both public and

private sectors.

According to economic times Escorts is ranked among seventh in sales and fifth in profit

while amongst engineering companies. It is ranked fourth in sales and second in profits.

For four decades Mahle pistons and Goetze Rings are remained undisputed leaders in

OEM and after merit segments. The demand for tractors was fast increasing and the

company decided to set up tractors manufacturing plant at Faridabad. Next to follow

were motorcycles leading birth to Rajdoot. Both were runaway successes for two

reasons:

1. The company has adapted the technology to suit Indian conditions.

2. It has an efficient and well spread distribution system included service support

and availability of spares.

From then on all though the 1960's and 1970's, Escorts continue to diversify into core

sectors collaborating with global leaders and bringing into India the most sophisticated

and relevant technology.

GOETZE (I) LTD Patiala was incorporated in 1955 through collaboration with GOETZE

WORKS AG Germany. Manufacturing plant for piston ring was set up at Bahadurgarh,

Patiala, which delivered the Indian automobile industry its piston in 1957.It was started

in 1955 when Chief Minister of erstwhile Pepsu State Hon'ble Shri Brish Bhan laid its

foundation stone.

Licensed to manufacture three million piston rings with collaborations of M\s Goetze

Weite West Germany, one of the leading manufacturers of piston rings in the world, the

unit took rapid strides under capable leadership and achieved the capacity in short span

of three years after the machines were installed and commissioned.

The Escorts Mahle Ltd. Bahadurgarh is a joint venture of Escorts Ltd and Mahle,

KNORR BRERNSE Germany since 1-10-96.As a corollary, the management brought in

the manufacture of pistons progressively to enable the engine builders in the country to

get the latest advancement made in Europe as far as pistons were concerned. Over the

years Escorts has collaborated with many leading enterprises and engineering groups like

Goetze, Mahle, Suko etc. Piston assemblies engineered in this progressive unit in Punjab

became the first choice boomed. The demand for outstripped the production expansion

inevitable. By the year, the expansion scheme doubling the capacity of pistons and rings

were a complete shape, the employment potential too increased.

The Escorts limited has been generous unit to its employees by providing then with

financial incentives along with good pay scales. It has adopted various labour welfare

and social security measures for the betterment of working and living conditions of its

workers.

The Personal Department of this unit has left no stone unturned to take such steps with a

view to establish harmony between workers and management. The policies followed by

this unit are truly in line with the general policy of the Government of India followed in

public sector enterprises. The Escorts limited Bahadurgarh unit is paying full attention to

providing good working conditions to its employees for getting the best out for them in

the matter of production. The employees are allowed Dust allowance, washing

allowance, house rent allowance, conveyance allowance, local traveling expenses,

transport subsidy as per rules. A very interesting feature of this unit is that there are

various gift schemes for meeting and breaking the target/records of production.

Considering the needs of complete PISTON assembly ESCORTS LIMITED ventured

into manufacturing of pistons. In 1958 with the collaboration of M/S MAHLE Group,

GERMANY, which delivered the Indian automobile industry its PISTON in 1960.

ESCORTS entered in collaboration with M/S SUKO Group, GERMANY for piston pins

in1967 and manufacturing started in 1968.

To meet the increasing demand of market, in 1977 a parallel unit for manufacturing

pistons and piston pins was set up in BANGLORE.

Technological leadership unmatched with innovative thinking has made Escorts and

Goetze products to enjoy a high degree of customer confidence and is the first choice for

applications ranging from Bi – wheeler to Battle Tanks.

From 1st October 1996, ESCORTS LIMITED entered into joint venture with M/S

MAHLE Group, GERMANY with the formation of a new company, ESCORTS

MAHLE LIMITED.

In 1998, GOETZE also became the part of Federal Mogul, a well known group of USA.

In June 2000, both ESCORTS MAHLE LIMITED and GOETZE have become QS 9000

certified companies.

In the year 1978,a parallel unit for manufacturing the piston rings was established in

BANGLORE.

In 1994, M/S GAG became a member of M/S T and N group of U.K, which has now

been acquired by M/S Federal Mogul global manufacturer of broad range of automobile

parts.

In 1996, M/S GIL has upgraded IS certificate from IS 9002 to 9001.In 2000, M/S GIL

achieved a prestigious QS 9000 Certification.

By virtue of streamlining quality system, developed of quality culture, adaptation of

latest technology and equipment and with continuous endeavor towards improvement,

Goetze products enjoy a high degree of customer confidence and are the first choice of

discerning for application ranging from BI-WHEELER to BATTLE TANKS.

Production boomed the demand for outstripped the production expansion became

inevitable. By the year 1966, the expansion scheme doubting the capacity of pistons and

rings was given a complete shape. The year 1968 saw the commencement of Gudgeon

pins.

Employing about 3500 people this progressive unit has an annual turn about Rs.80

Crores and is biggest of its kind in Punjab adding lusture of the emerging industrial

horizon of the country.

From then on all through the 1960’s and 1970’s Escorts continue to diversify into the

core sectors collaborating with global leaders and bringing into India first the most

sophisticated and relevant technology. Among the company’s international collaboration

GIL was affected by the sluggish nature demand in the automotive sector through much

of financial year 99.Although sales turnover fell by a modest 0.2%, this was largely due

to increased turnover in the trading operations of the company's leather garment

business. The solvent oil extraction plant remained shut throughout the year due to

unavailability of operations on account of liberal imports. However the company did

well on the export front. They showed a sharp increase of 65% mainly due to leather

garment business.
