History of Cement

Manufacture of cement has a history, which traces back to millennia. The Romans who were prolific builders used burnt calcareous (calcium bearing) rocks along with pozzolanic materials in an era Before Christ. The structures built by them, like the Pantheon, are still there for us to see proving the goodness of cementations materials as input material for construction. Post industrialization and as infrastructure development started globally, demands for cement have been growing steadily both quantitatively & qualitatively.

India is the second largest cement producer in the world after China and cement consumption has been growing at a CAGR of over 8% p.a. in the last five year.

Cement Manufacturing Process

Mining

The cement manufacturing process starts from the mining of limestone, which is the main raw material for

making cement. Limestone is excavated from open cast mines after drilling and blasting and loaded on to

dumpers which transport the material and unload into hoppers of the limestone crushers.

Crushing Stacking and Reclaming of Coal

The process of making cement clinker requires heat. Coal is used as the fuel for providing heat. Raw Coal

received from the collieries is stored in a coal yard. Raw Coal is dropped on a belt conveyor from a hopper

and is taken to and crushed in a crusher. Crushed coal discharged from the Coal Crusher is stored in a

longitudinal stockpile from where it is reclaimed by a reclaimer and taken to the coal mill hoppers for grinding

of fine coal.

22

Crushing Stacking & Reclaiming of Limestone

The LS Crushers crush the limestone to minus 80 mm size and discharge the material onto a belt

conveyor which takes it to the stacker via the Bulk material analyser. The material is stacked in

longitudinal stockpiles. Limestone is extracted transversely from the stockpiles by the reclaimers and

conveyed to the Raw Mill hoppers for grinding of raw meal.

Electrical Power

For total power requirement of 90 MW (Jaypee Rewa Plant and Jaypee Bela Plant), we have CPP 1 - 22.5 MWCPP 2 - 22.5 MWCPP 3 - 38.5 MWFour DG sets provide an emergency backup.

Technical Services

Owning a strong, durable and beautiful home is one of the innate desires of every human being. At Jaypee, the pioneers in the construction of mega Hydroelectric projects and other infrastructure projects, we fully understand that good cement and construction material alone will not ensure strong and lasting structures. Correct construction practices and quality control at the time of construction play an equally important role. Our understanding of the construction practices and related problems has prompted us to extend customized technical services specially tailored for the Individual Home Builders and large projects. We firmly believe that quality construction leads to satisfied customers.

The Jaypee Cement Technical Support Service offerings are:

23

Clinkerisation

Cement Clinker is made by pyroprocessing of Kiln feed in the preheater and the rotary kiln. Fine coal is

fired as fuel to provide the necessary heat in the kiln and the Precalciner located at the bottom of the

5/6 stage preheater. Hot clinker discharged from the Kiln drops on the grate cooler and gets cooled.

The cooler discharges the clinker onto the pan / bucket conveyor and it is transported to the clinker

stockpiles / silos. The clinker is taken from the stockpile / silo to the ball mill hoppers for cement

grinding.

Cement Grinding & Storage

Clinker and Gypsum (for OPC) and also Pozzolana (for PPC) are extracted from their respective

hoppers and fed to the Cement Mills. These Ball Mills grind the feed to a fine powder and the Mill

discharge is fed to an elevator, which takes the material to a separator, which separates fine product

and the coarse. The latter is sent to the mill inlet for regrinding and the fine product is stored in

concrete silos.

Packing

Cement extracted from silos is conveyed to the automatic electronic packers where it is packed in 50 Kgs.

Polythene bags and dispatched in trucks.

Technical Service Engineers

The Area Marketing Offices have a fully functional technical services department aptly supported by qualified Civil Engineers who visit and interact with the customers to assess their needs and accordingly advise them about the best construction practices so that the dream of a strong and durable home is realized. Some of the customer-centric initiatives taken up by the Technical Service Engineers are:

Customized solutions to the problems of the individual home builder Training the masons and contractors so that they are aware about good construction

practices Train the channel partners (Dealers and Retailers) about the product and its correct usage Interact routinely with the professionals (architects and engineers) and share information

regarding latest developments in the product and industry

The services of the Technical Service Engineers can be availed by all users of Jaypee Cement. For more details, please contact nearest Jaypee Cement Area Marketing Office or Jaypee Cement Authorized Dealers.

A brief introduction of each brand is enumerated as below:-

PORTLAND POZZOLANA CEMENTJaypee Cement produces special blend of Portland Pozzolana Cement and markets it under the popular brand name ‘Jaypee Cement’ (PPC). JAYPEE CEMENT (PPC)Jaypee Cement (PPC) is a market leader among all blended/composite cements in the markets of U.P, Bihar, M.P., Punjab, Haryana, Delhi & Nepal. Its unique design and blend, with high strength clinker and superior quality flyash has made it the popular cement for construction of large number of strong and durable structures in these states.Fine particles of Jaypee Cement (PPC) when mixed with water readily form a smooth paste, which results in a smooth surface. When used with sand and aggregates it yields a very strong & durable concrete. Jaypee Cement (PPC) helps to produce more cohesive concrete and mortar which is also less prone

24

to segregation and bleeding. Due to this quality, Jaypee Cement (PPC) is suitable for any type of structural application. *(Curing is done as per specified norms)Use of superior quality flyash in Jaypee Cement (PPC) not only reduces the incidence of lime leaching from concrete and mortar but also results in refined pore structure, reduced permeability and long term strength gain. These attributes make the construction strong, compact, impermeable and resistant to chemical attacks.Jaypee Cement (PPC) is being used for a number of applications like housing, commercial complexes, roads, wells, canals, dams etc. which establishes Jaypee Cement (PPC) as the preferred choice of the discerning customer. It is particularly well suited for the tropical climatic conditions of India. Qualities of Jaypee Cement PPCUnmatched characteristics of Jaypee Cement (PPC) which form the basis of sound & durable construction are:

Better workability due to spherical shape of flyash particles and better slump retention. Better pumpability – provides more cohesive concrete and mortar. Superfine particles provide great finish to the structure. Provides un-segregated concrete of better integrity. Low heat of hydration. Reduced shrinkage and swelling. Better pore refinement, reduced permeability. Better resistance to chloride and sulphate attack Better resistance to alkali-silica reaction. Resistance to corrosive attack on steel reinforcement. Reduced lime leaching. High compressive strength. High modulus of elasticity especially at later ages. Improved bondage of concrete to steel. Long term strength gain.

Conclusion

Jaypee Cement (PPC) helps to produce better concrete & compressive strength keeps on growing with

time. Jaypee Cement (PPC) promotes workability in fresh concrete even with less water and hence

yields high strength concrete of low permeability, less bleeding, better pump-ability and superior finish.

Hardened concrete made with Jaypee Cement (PPC) benefits from long term gain in compressive

strength and related properties like low creep & shrinkage etc.

Furthermore, the concrete is very durable and effectively resists aggressive attack of sulphate and

chloride ions. It is also resistant to Alkali aggregate reaction. The concrete is not subjected to attack by

acid rain due to presence of green house gases (GHGs) in higher concentrations in atmosphere.

Jaypee Cement (OPC-43 Grade)

Jaypee Cement (OPC-43 Grade) is produced from enriched limestone most suited to make high

quality clinker, which on grinding gives a cement with characteristics surpassing those specified in IS:

8112 1989. (Please refer Table-2).

Jaypee Cement (OPC-43 Grade) is available in 50 Kgs HDPE bags of a distinctive design and cover

(bag shot).

Jaypee Cement (OPC-43 Grade), has emerged as the top choice of Engineers and Engineering

Companies engaged in construction of mega projects – such as National Highways, Bridges,

Transmission lines, power plants, Industrial and Residential structures.

Jaypee Cement (OPC-53 Grade)

OPC-53 Grade has been the mainstay for fast paced construction of high strength, heavy load bearing

Structures viz., Bridges, prestressed elements, penstocks, precast elements etc. requiring very high

strength to negotiate the heavy static & dynamic loads.

Jaypee Cement (OPC-53 Grade), because of its fine nature, good particle size distribution, optimal

phase composition, imparts the properties of higher strength to the structures. The Chemical &

Physical properties of Jaypee Cement (OPC-53 Grade) surpass the properties of OPC 53 grade as

defined in IS: 12269 – 1987. (Please Refer Table – 3)

Jaypee Cement (T-40 Grade)

One of the very few cement manufacturers having the potential to manufacture this special grade of

super fine cement which due to its enhanced quality and performance parameters has been approved

by the RDSO of Indian Railways for manufacture of “RAILWAY SLEEPERS”.

Jaypee Cement (T-40 Grade) is also used in heavily loaded or pre stressed structures, which are

subjected to high dynamic loads due to rapidly moving volumes, be it a train passing on the railway

sleepers or a great volume of water moving at high speed to generate electricity in a penstock.

CEMENT

Jaypee group is the 3rd largest cement producer in the country. The groups cement facilities are

located in the Satna which has one of the highest cement production growth rates in India.

The group produces special blend of Portland Pozzolana Cement under the brand name ‘Jaypee

(* includes 2.2 MnTPA capacity in Joint Venture with SAIL)

Rationale of the Study

28

The Indian Cement Industry occupies a predominant position not only as one of the basic

industries for infrastructure development, but also because it is the 2nd largest producer of cement

in the world.

Importance to Economy:

The cement industry accounts for approximately 1.3% of GDP and employs over 0.14

million people. It is a significant contributor to the revenue collected by both the central and state

governments through excise and sales taxes. Cement has consistently figured among the top 5-7

commodities. It is a heavily taxed commodity and the duties amount to around 30% of the selling

price of cement.

India is the second largest producer of cement in the world. In 2006-07, India (158 mt) is the

second largest producer- behind China (1000 mt), but ahead of the US (99 mt) and Japan (66 mt).

India’s cement industry – both installed capacity and actual production has grown significantly

over the past three decades, with production increasing at an average rate of 8.1% per year between

1981 and 2005-06. Also it is worth noticing that the demand for cement is still outstrips supply by

at least 5 million tonnes (TOI, June 13,2010).

Major Players:

The major players in Indian cement industry in terms of sales and market share are:

1. Ultratech Cement

2. ACC ltd.

3 Ambuja Cement

3. Century Textiles & Inds.

4. India Cements

5. Jaiprakash Associates

6. Birla Corporation

The relative market share of large players in cement industry has changed significantly over the

years. Consolidation of capacities has seen Ultratech, Grasim, India Cement and Gujrat Ambuja

emerge as the leading player apart from ACC, which has been the market leader during all the

years of excepting FY2001.

Promoting and Designing exclusive network:-

In order make a network in any area company needs some dealers who represent it’s

brand so, Dealer is a medium between consumer and company, dealer play a big role in

marketing because without dealer company can not sell anything directly to consumer,

dealer play a role like a bridge between company & Consumer. Dealer sells of cement as a

owner of product that he is directly touched with the consumer so company cannot be loose

relation with dealer.

Consumer is main target of any company but without dealer this is not possible so

always a company tries to make a good and healthy relation and very curious about what is

the think of dealer problem of dealer, because in the market dealer face large number of

competitor of product. It is very necessary to when a company want to increase it’s sales

value he could be maintain good position in market through to dealer.

Dealer satisfaction is a very tough task because no one is satisfy in this world so we

cannot say I satisfied this person through to my work.. Satisfaction is only way to know the

real problem of any one and this cement field it is not a easy task satisfaction level of any

dealer measurement not very easy just know the problem.

Satisfaction is a feeling, which shows that what the dealer or any person want he get.

Company wants to satisfy dealer because a dealer or retailer are the person who are in

contact directly with the consumer so always those in need to satisfy the consumer and

make him aware about the project.

38

OBJECTIVE OF THE TOPIC

1) To find out the factors which encourages the dealers to become exclusive?

2) To know the problems faced by the various exclusive dealers.

3) To find out the reasons why the exclusive dealer’s switch to the multibrand dealer.

4) To find out the various special schemes given to exclusive dealers by other

competitive brands

5) To find out the strategies adopted by the competitor’s to maintain their exclusivity.

6) Comparative analysis of the facilities given various company.

7) To find out best promotion methods of jaypee.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

“PROMOTING AND DESIGNING EXCLUSIVE NETWORK” It is being a research

project. I have used random sampling technique with the help of questionnaire prepared by

me for exclusive brand dealers & multi brand dealers separately. The purpose of making of

this questionnaire was to get unbiased or clear information from the dealer.

The areas allotted to me for survey were “Rewa.” I had been given a list of dealers of

Jaypee Cement.

During the survey I met many dealers without discussing my identity to them & with

the help of questionnaire. I tried to obtain data regarding the factors influencing the dealer

to be exclusive & expectation of the dealers from the company. And also the advertisement,

promotion, transportation facility support from companies personals which help in

analyzing the data.

I used graphical representation method to represent my survey report, I analyse the

primary data which I got in survey on the basis of the dealer suggestion & views.

RESEARCH ANALYSIS

“Promoting and designing exclusive network”

Dealer Types:

Based upon my survey I have divided the dealers into two broad groups. According

to the study in cement sector there are two groups –

1. Multi Brand Dealer

2. Exclusive dealer

As per my survey I met with the two type of dealer multi brand and exclusive brand

dealer and I meet with 40 dealer of multi brand dealer and 20 dealer of exclusive dealer.

Totally I meet with 60 dealer and collect the data from them.

(1)Multi Brand Dealer :-

During my survey I met with 40 dealer of multi brand dealer of cement and asking

question through to questionnaire and getting the data's.

Jaypee Maihar Gold ACC Prism

According to the survey I found that the Jaypee Cement has more exclusive dealers as

compaired to the other brands. In my pilot survey I had met 60 dealers out of them 25 are

exclusive dealers.

The majority of Exclusive dealers belong to jaypee which are 12 out of 25. Prism

has 8 dealers out of 25. ACC has 3 dealers & Maihar gold has 2 dealers.

In my survey I had done a comparative study of the different brands in the market

according to the facilities provided by them to the dealers in the market.

50

I found in the survey that quality wise J.P is the best in the market which I covered in

my survey and prism is in the second position. And the dealers are fully satisfied with the

quality & availability of J.P but in the other factors like margin, discounts and special

schemes they are pointing out the prism is the best for their dealers.

FINDING

1. During my survey when I asked question regarding dealer satisfaction

Most of the dealer’s are unsatisfied by the companies special treatment which are

given to the dealers.

2. Talking about the question regarding dealers switching from Exclusive to multi brand

many of the dealer have given the reason of heavy customer demand for other brands and

some pointed out to utilize the schemes given by other company.

3 Talking about question regarding quality of the brands then dealer’ has given first

preference given to J.P as compared to the other competitive brands.

58

4 During my survey when I asked question regarding availability of cement they are

satisfied with J.P performance.

5 During my survey when I asked question regarding Dealer level promotions of jp

they are partially satisfied specially multi brand dealer’s

6. During my survey when I asked questions regarding best promotion ativities then I

found that wall painting, mason meet, Dealer meet,Hoarding, Gift items are some of

the important productions that every company is doing on regular basis.

SUGGESTION

I found some problems in my survey by the dealers regarding jaypee cement plant. I

highlighted the problems not just the suggestion.

1) The major factor which is responsible for the enhancement of market share and

dealer satisfaction is the availability of the product. So company management should

try to make the product available in time while keeping the freight charges reduced

2) Marketing personnel should pay regular visit and maintain good relation with dealer.

3) Price should be competitive according to the market.

4) Make aware the dealer as well as customer about the quality of ppc cement. 59

5) Some gifts, tour, should be given to the dealer which motivates him.

6) Company should invite suggestion from the dealer and customer.

7) Try to remove variation in the price of cement.

8) Don’t ignore the market having less potential.

9) Company should concentrate on promotional activities..

LIMITATION OF STUDY

1) As a student, only those things are written which were originally found in the

survey.

2) It is believed that whatever different dealers said is true and biased.

3) This report is for the market of Rewa not for any other market.

4) I met with many exclusive dealers and their could be some personal bias for

their brand.

60

5) The data I collected for my report is both primary and secondary. So there is

always less reliability for secondary data.

6) No accuracy of 100% could be guaranteed here in this report.

CONCLUSION

After completion of pilot survey I found that cement companies should concentrate

more on dealer satisfaction because they are the person who are responsible for the

company sales maximization. Company should also focus on the promotional activities

because it affects the market a lot. In order to to create the demand in the market. JP group

has to worked on his technical and dealer level promotions and make them better from

others.

61

This research has given me a practical knowledge about company’s promotional

activities in the market. I have gained a lot especially during analysis of data and the time of

data collection. I also came to know about various marketing strategies that a company

adopted during promotions.

I thank the entire respondent who provides their valuable time for giving the

information about my topic.

This research has enriched me with full of experience & I have tried my best for

achieving the better and accurate results.
