Textile Industry of PakistanOVERVIEWPakistan has dynamic, vigorous and export oriented textile industry that has an overwhelming impact on economy. Textile being largest industrial sector generates the countrys highest export earnings of about 58%; providing the bulk of employment (39%) to largely under utilized workforce, and contributes 8.5% to GDP.Post-quota scenario has dramatically changed the global trade patterns and increased the competition nonetheless there is a new focus required for textile industry to increase their successive rate. Pakistan textile industry is facing tough competition from the regional competitors. The cost of doing business in Pakistan is high as compared to other competitors. On account of these reasons, the Pakistan textile industry is going through crucial calculations. But there is no denial of the fact that there exists immense potential for growth and development of textile industry. In view of the anticipated competition with rival countries efforts are being made to make Textile and Clothing sector more dynamic and competitive. A number of projects inter alia Lahore, Faisalabad & Karachi garment cities and Pakistan Textile City, Karachi have been planned in public sector with an investment of over Rs. 3.5 billion to which multilateral institutions and stakeholders are equity partners. These cities are meant for value added finished textile products.Future of the textile industry in Pakistan seems bright as lots of opportunities are available in the era of globalization. Thus creating greater opportunities for the fourth biggest cotton producer country of the world. Inline with the world market situation, the Ministry is striving hard to envisage a new culture which would expedite the process of improvement in all the segments of textile sector and will be synergistic for industry to boost its share in global trade.HISTORY OF TEXTILE INDUSTRY IN PAKISTANThe subcontinent is the inheritor of one of the richest and oldest textile traditions in the world. Excavations at Mohenjo Daro and Harappa 2500-1500 BC revealed that the inhabitants of the Indus Valley cultivated cotton. Sir John Marshall, the archaeologist has stated that a few minute scraps of cotton were found adhering to the side of a silver vase. Clay and faience spindles whorls indicate that cotton and woolen fibers were spun. A well-equipped dyers workshop was excavated at Mohenjo Daro and the fragment of cloth indicates that woven cotton cloth was dyed with madder root.Independence from the British in 1947 and the division of the Indian subcontinent into Pakistan and India started a new era for textiles production. Pakistan consisted of two entities, east and West Pakistan. The West was the cotton producing area and the East was responsible for jute production. At the time of partition, Pakistan had no industrial base and inherited only one textile mill, the Lyallpur Cotton Mill in Lyallpur [now called Faisalabad]. This mill produced yarn and gray cloth and no printed fabrics.Under the Open General Licensing [OGL] scheme, the business community imported plants and machinery with cash dollars. In 1950, Adamjee Mills was set up in Karachi, Kohinoor in Faisalabad, Colony Textile Mills in Multan, Nishat and Crescent Textile in Faisalabad. These were followed by Gul Ahmed Textile Mills, Al-Karam, Valika, Star and Rashid textile mills.Within a decade the new country of Pakistan was self-sufficient in cotton and began exporting gray cloth and later cotton yarn. Pakistan started exporting printed fabrics in the late 1970s to Africa and by mid 80s was sending printed material to Europe. Pakistans location was ideal, as it lay halfway between the western world and the Far East. Pakistan has a 28 percent share in world export of cotton yarn and a 6 percent share in world export of cotton cloth.It was in the 60s that the power loom took over and by the 70s gray cloth was being exported at throwaway prices. There are about 200,000 power looms operating in Pakistan some of which are backyard operations. Handloom, which formed the backbone of textile goods in the last century, is now almost non-existent, its sales confined to a fast diminishing rural market and a very small niche market.Although Pakistan is the worlds fourth largest cotton growing nation in the world, after the United States, China, and India, its total turnover for export is only $ 5 billion. Textile goods form 60 % of the total exports of the country. The commodities exported are yarn, cloth, tents, and canvas, bags, towels, bed linen, garments, synthetic textiles and other made ups.With a large and expanding textile industry, textile education and training became imperative. The Textile University of Pakistan was established in Karachi to train technical and management professionals. The Textile University awards degrees in Textile Sciences and Textile Management. The National College of Arts in Lahore and the Indus Valley School of Art and Architecture in Karachi are the only two institutions in Pakistan, which award a degree in the discipline of Textile Design. Designers are being absorbed into the industry, bringing about change and vibrancy, with innovations in Print design and weaving.Today there are 450 Spinning mills and 35 composite textile mills. Textile goods form 60 % of the total exports of Pakistan.

INTRODUCTION & HISTORY OF EJAZ GROUP OF COMPANIES (EGC)EJAZ GROUP OF COMPANNIES was established in 1950, for International trading of commodities like petroleum products, metals, edible oils and industrial raw material. In 1980, the group ventured into manufacturing and set up the first industrial unit under the banner of 'Mian Nazir Sons Industries (Pvt.) Ltd.The Group commissioned its textile division in 1987 and set up the first yarn-manufacturing unit under the banner of ' Imran Spinning Mills Ltd'.

Spinning Process

Blow Rooms:Raw cotton goes into the blow room where it is manually opened and sorted. Toughed sized cotton is reduced and removal of trash and contamination takes place through 2 machines named LOPTEX (optical and sonic detectors which remove jude, ppt and colored yarn) and ARGUS (smoke and metal detector).Card Department:During this process, raw cotton is converted into sliver. Orientation of fibers takes place through fiber to fiber opening which is also called the carding action.After the carding department the process changes for the production of carded yarn or combed yarn.For the production of carded yarn, the sliver from card department is fed into the drawing machines and then to finishers. In both these machines, homogenous mixing takes place.For the production of combed yarn, the sliver from card department is fed into pre-comber (another name for drawing machine), then into uni-lap where lap formation takes place. The lap is then fed into the comber machine where short fibers are removed and we get comber noel. The sliver from the comber machine then goes to finisher.

Simplex:The sliver from both the processes, whether from carded or combed, is then brought to the simplex machine where it gets into the rowing form to contract space. Here for the first time TPI is introduced.Ring Department:At this stage of production, the rowing form is converted into yarn on bobbin. Here drafting, twisting and winding takes place. At this stage, traveler is the twist inserting element.Auto Cone Department:Yarn from bobbin is transferred to cones and the final product is obtained.Conditioning: Relative Humidity % = 98.6 [(dry temperature wet temperature)/ dry temperature] x 300The yarn on cones is condition for at least 12 hours at an RH value of 68% so that yarn absorbs the humidity. It increases the weight and brings strength to the thread. Warping Department:Cones from spinning mills, after being tested from the labs, are brought to the creels in the warping department where around 700 to 800 ends are spun onto a single beam. The most common problem which can emerge during this stage is that of weak yarn. Due to breakage of even a single thread, the machine has to be stopped which causes a heavy loss in production. Another major problem could be that of short length.Sizing Department:Beams from the warping department are taken to the sizing machine where 7 to 8 beams are spun onto a single beam according to the requirement of the fabric which is being produced. All the threads are passed through a mixture of almost 6 different chemicals, the most prominent among which is starch. This helps give strength to the threads which become tough after getting through this process and ironing. After this, these beams having greater number of ends and starched yarn is taken to the weaving department. A problem could be that due to more TPI there could be low absorption of chemicals which might not give the required strength to the yarn to handle the high tension on the looms.Weaving Department:Beams which are brought here are used for warping on looms. For weft, yarn from cones is directly used through air pressure from air jet looms. From here we get the fabric which is then taken into the folding and inspection department.Inspection department:The fabric which has been produced is taken to the testing machines where it is tested for various problems of neps, thick and thin places, shade variation, dead cotton etc, and is then folded on rolls to be sent to the processing and dyeing department.Dying & Finishing Process:The dyeing and finishing process consists of the following 4 steps:I. Pre-treatmentII. DyeingIII. FinishingIV. Folding and inspectionI. Pre-treatment:In the process of pre-treatment the cloth is singed by burning and then de-sized by an enzyme. Singing removes the small fibers in the form of fur on the surface and de-sizing is done so that the starch is removed for the cloth to absorb the dye properly. After de-sizing the cloth is kept for around 24 hours for the enzyme to completely remove the sizing by bacterial action. After de-sizing is complete, scouring is done by which all impurities are removed by NaOH and the cloth is ready for bleaching through which white natural color is obtained by using hydrogen peroxide. After this the cloth is mercesized. Merscezing is the process of applying NaOH which aids penetration of dye into the fibers, increases chemical reactivity, swells the fibers, produces shine in the cloth and gives a soft feeling to it.II. Dyeing:Dyeing is done through thermosol machines and the washing process is done through pad steam. In this stage, the cloth is dyed at a temperature varying from 120 to 200 degrees depending upon the nature of the dye and that of the cloth as well. The cloth is emurized or peached before going to the finishing stage.III. Finishing:In this process the cloth goes into the stenter machine where it is stretched horizontally to the width required by the client. The heavy quality cloth is stretched by the pin type stenters whereas the light quality cloth is stretched by using the clip type stenters. After being stretched horizontally, the cloth is surforized for shrinkage control.IV. Folding and Inspection:The final dyed cloth is taken to the inspection machines where the cloth is tested through a special grading system of 3 points. Most of the problems are removed instantaneously but those which cant be removed are cut off. The final product, according to its categories is folded onto the rolls and is ready to be purchased by the customers.

WORK DONE BY MEI worked for 6 weeks at Ejaz Group of Companies (Head office) as a trainee in the finance department. Mr. Aqeel Butt is the Finance Controller of Finance Department. He is very nice and co-operative man. I have worked in two main fields of this department. In Sales Tax work under the sales manager Mr. Tariq Hafeez and in accounts field I assist to the Chief Accountant Mr. Zaheer Ahmad.It was a great experience. When I joins the company as an internee I was just a fresh graduate student but during this 45 days session I learnt a lot about the real practical field. Mostly people says that studies are just for degrees and when you goes in real life practical job there you found completely different things. But during this internship I feel that they are wrong all we have learnt in our studies are the base of our real life and the practical jobs. Jobs are growing advance levels of learnings where we do our studies in practice and keep learning in this process.At first day of my internship in sales tax department I was given a task for simple data entry work in excel sheets and I have done it very well and appreciated by the seniors. After that day by gradually they give me new tasks new things to do.First of all the most important thing is to understand the nature of financial document and understand the transaction happens against the document. That comes with passage as I deals with different documents and keep recording their entries. I am very thankful to my seniors over there who give a special attentions from there busy time and before giving any specific work they give me a complete briefing on it and taught me that how to understand and read the financial documents.I also keeps records and make registers for the sales invoices of the company and 20% withholding tax on sales documents along all of buyers for each month separately.During all this session I have learned the following financial studies in practice.Study of Financial StatementsIf analytical data are to be reliable, they must be developed from financial statements that properly exhibit business position and operations. As a first step, statements that are to be used as a basis for analysis should be carefully reviewed to determine whether they display any shortcomings or discrepancies. In the course of the examination, the following questions should be asked: If they full disclosure of all relevant financial data? Have appropriate and consistent bases for valuation been used? Are the data properly classified? When necessary, statements should be corrected so that they report the full financial story in conformance with accepted accounting principles. 1. Voucher Making:The first step of entering in an accounting house is to make a voucher for further movement. In any system of Finance or Accounting there is always a voucher making for its safe and sure, the process of maintaining records. Voucher plays an important role in presentation of proof for the record of accounting and finance. There are three of vouchers mostly used in Ejaz Group of Companies for holding back the books of accounts in shape of evidence. i. Journal General Vouchers:There is a rule in accounting to booking our future expenses now. However they are not paid or receipt yet this is called accrual rule. Journal vouchers are accounting booking procedures through which we record a transaction in advance for a future expense. For example salaries are generated at the end of month but they are not paid yet so we make journal voucher for that in advance. The basic rule of debit credit is same as in receipt and payment vouchers.Some of examples documents for journal vouchers I have deals in EGC areMess expensesYarn commission billsExport expenses ii. Receipt Vouchers:These are revenue vouchers, named as receipts vouchers. These receipt vouchers are made, when the organization receives any amount either in shape of revenue or in either case may be. When organization receives advances against any head, any income for miscellaneous sources, interests, dividends etc, the official receipts vouchers are made.Party ReceiptsOther receipts from associated companiesBank credit advisesiii. Payment Vouchers:The third kind of voucher is payment vouchers. These vouchers are usually cash or bank vouchers (c.v.). These vouchers are made when the organization is required to pay for its expenditures or in any case may be when organization pays amount in any head like to pay for Salaries, purchases, wages interest, bonus, advance payments etc, the cash voucher are made.When the payment is to be made by hand by the cashier the simple cash voucher is made. The signatures are received on the revenue stamp, pasted on that cash voucher to ensure the acknowledgment of payment. This voucher is made for petty cash expenses, day to day expenditures, over time payments, loading and unloading charges, TA/DA payments.When the payment is to be made through bank by making a cheque or draft a bank payment voucher is made. Part paymentsCourier chargesBank debit advicesCustomer advisesTax paymentsOther payments

2. Taxes:Not all about tax but I have learned some of the basic procedures of the sales tax. There are two main heads of tax one is sales tax and second is income tax. i. Sales Tax:A tax imposed by the government at the time of sale on goods and services. It is collected by the company and passed on to the FBR Pakistan.ii.

This is big achievement for a company to develop a good organizational culture because its very difficult to arrange such a stress free, well communicated and well coordinated culture.
