EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Products which have a quick turnover, and relatively low cost are known as Fast
Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG). FMCG products are those that get replaced within
a year. Examples of FMCG generally include a wide range of frequently purchased
consumer products such as toiletries, soap, cosmetics, tooth cleaning products, shaving
products and detergents, as well as other non-durables such as glassware, bulbs,
batteries, paper products, and plastic goods. FMCG may also include pharmaceuticals,
consumer electronics, packaged food products, soft drinks, tissue paper, and chocolate
bars.
India’s FMCG sector is the fourth largest sector in the economy and creates
employment for more than three million people in downstream activities. Its principal
constituents are Household Care, Personal Care and Food & Beverages.
The total FMCG market is in excess of Rs. 85,000 Crores. It is currently growing at
double digit growth rate and is expected to maintain a high growth rate. FMCG
Industry is characterized by a well-established distribution network, low penetration
levels, low operating cost, lower per capita consumption and intense competition
between the organized and unorganized segments.
INTRODUCTION OF INDUSTRY
Industry is the production of a good or service within an economy. Manufacturing industry
became a key sector of production and labour in European and North American countries during
the Industrial Revolution, upsetting previous mercantile and feudal economies. This occurred
through many successive rapid advances in technology, such as the production of steel and coal.
Following the Industrial Revolution, perhaps a third of the world's economic output is derived
from manufacturing industries. Many developed and many developing/semi-developed countries
(People's Republic of China, India etc.) depend significantly on manufacturing industry.
Industries, the countries they reside in, and the economies of those countries are interlinked in a
complex web of interdependence.
Classification of industry
Industries can be classified in a variety of ways. At the top level, industry is often classified into sectors: Primary or extractive, secondary or manufacturing, and tertiary or services. Some authors add quaternary (knowledge) or even quinary (culture and research)
sectors. Over time, the fraction of a society's industry within each sector changes. They are-
Sector Definition
Primary
This involves the extraction of resources directly from the Earth; this includes
farming, mining and logging. They do not process the products at all.
They send it off to factories to make a profit.
Secondary
This group is involved in the processing products from primary industries. This
includes all factories—those that refine metals, produce furniture, or pack
farm products such as meat.
Tertiary This group is involved in the delivery and sale of goods. They include truck drivers
and retail workers, for example.
Quaternary This group is involved in the research of science and technology and other high level
tasks. They include scientists, doctors, and lawyers.
INTRODUCTION OF COMPANY
A company is an association or collection of individuals, whether natural persons, legal persons,
or a mixture of both. Company members share a common purpose and unite in order
to focus their various talents and organize their collectively available skills or
resources to achieve specific, declared goals. Companies take various forms such as:
Voluntary associations which may nonprofit organization
A group of soldiers
Business entities with an aim of gaining a profit
Financial entities and banks
A company or association of persons can be created at law as legal person so that the company in
itself can accept Limited liability for civil responsibility and taxation incurred as
members perform (or fail) to discharge their duty within the publicly declared "birth
certificate" or published policy because companies are legal persons, they also may
associate and register themselves as companies - often known as a corporate group.
When the company closes it may need a "death certificate" to avoid further legal
obligations.

INTRODUCTION OF FMCG INDUSTRY
Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG), also known as Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG), are products that are sold quickly at relatively low cost. Though the absolute profit made on
FMCG products is relatively small, they generally sell in large quantities, so the cumulative profit on such products can be large.
Examples of FMCG generally include a wide range of frequently purchased consumer products such as toiletries, soap, cosmetics, teeth cleaning products, shaving products and detergents, as
well as other non-durables such as glassware, light bulbs, batteries, paper products and plastic goods. FMCG may also include pharmaceuticals, consumer electronics, packaged food products and drinks, although these are often categorized separately.
FMCG have a short shelf life, either as a result of high consumer demand or because the product
deteriorates rapidly. Some FMCGs—such as meat, fruits and vegetables, dairy products, and baked goods—are highly perishable. Other goods such as alcohol, toiletries, pre-packaged foods, soft drinks, and cleaning products have high turnover rates. An excellent example is a
newspaper—every day's newspaper carries different content, making one useless just one day later, necessitating a new purchase every day.
Main characteristics of FMCGs:
From the consumers' perspective: o Frequent purchase
o Low involvement (little or no effort to choose the item – products with strong brand loyalty are exceptions to this rule)
o Low price From the marketers' angle:
o High volumes
o Low contribution margins o Extensive distribution network
o High stock turnover

FUTURE PROSPECTS OF HUL
India is a fast developing country with a huge population whose per capita income is growing rapidly and there is huge opportunity for FMCG companies.
The opportunities are as follows:
Increasing per capita income is driving FMCG growth in India
India’s consuming class is growing rapidly
Changing consumption pattern: Per capita income of Indian customer is increasing and
FMCG products are relatively elastic in nature hence the expected sale should increase.
FUTURE PROJECTS OF HUL:
As competition is increasing day by day, it’s difficult to maintain the leader position & to
further strengthen the distribution network HUL made a project called project
SHAKTI which will serve the following purpose:
A) To Reach:
Small, scattered settlements and poor infrastructure make distribution difficult. Over 500,000 villages not reached directly by HUL.
B) To Communicate: Low literacy hampers effectiveness of print media.
Poor media-reach: 500 million Indians lack TV & radio.
C) To Influence: Low category penetration, consumption.
C) Awareness: Per capita consumption in Unilever categories is 33% of urban level.
ITC
HISTORY OF ITC
ITC was incorporated on August 24, 1910 under the name Imperial Tobacco Company of India
Limited. As the Company's ownership progressively Indianised, the name of the
Company was changed from Imperial Tobacco Company of India Limited to India
Tobacco Company Limited in 1970 and then to I.T.C. Limited in 1974. In recognition
of the Company's multi-business portfolio encompassing a wide range of businesses -
Fast Moving Consumer Goods comprising Foods, Personal Care, Cigarettes and
Cigars, Branded Apparel, Education and Stationery Products, Incense Sticks and
Safety Matches, Hotels, Paperboards & Specialty Papers, Packaging, Agri-Business
and Information Technology - the full stops in the Company's name were removed
effective September 18, 2001. The Company now stands rechristened 'ITC Limited,
‘where ‘ITC’ is today no longer an acronym or an initialized form.
A Modest Beginning
The Company's beginnings were humble. A leased office on Radha Bazar Lane, Kolkata, was the
centre of the Company's existence. The Company celebrated its 16th birthday on
August 24, 1926, by purchasing the plot of land situated at 37, Chowringhee, (now
renamed J.L. Nehru Road) Kolkata, for the sum of Rs 310,000. This decision of the
Company was historic in more ways than one. It was to mark the beginning of a long
and eventful journey into India's future. The Company's headquarter building,
'Virginia House', which came up on that plot of land two years later, would go on to
become one of Kolkata's most venerated landmarks.
1925: Packaging and Printing: Backward Integration.
Though the first six decades of the Company's existence were primarily devoted to the growth
and consolidation of the Cigarettes and Leaf Tobacco businesses, ITC's Packaging &
Printing Business was set up in 1925 as a strategic backward integration for ITC's
Cigarettes business. It is today India's most sophisticated packaging house.
1975: Entry into the Hospitality Sector - A 'Welcom' Move.
The Seventies witnessed the beginnings of a corporate transformation that would usher in
momentous changes in the life of the Company. In 1975, the Company launched its
Hotels business with the acquisition of a hotel in Chennai which was rechristened
'ITC-Welcomgroup Hotel Chola' (now renamed My Fortune, Chennai). The objective
of ITC's entry into the hotels business was rooted in the concept of creating value for
the nation. ITC chose the Hotels business for its potential to earn high levels of foreign
exchange, create tourism infrastructure and generate large scale direct and indirect
employment. Since then ITC's Hotels business has grown to occupy a position of
leadership, with over 100 owned and managed properties spread across India under
four brands namely, ITC Hotels - Luxury Collection, WelcomHotels, Fortune Hotels
and WelcomHeritage.
1979: Paperboards & Specialty Papers - Development of a Backward Area.
In 1979, ITC entered the Paperboards business by promoting ITC Bhadrachalam Paperboards
Limited. Bhadrachalam Paperboards amalgamated with the Company effective March
13, 2002 and became a Division of the Company, Bhadrachalam Paperboards
Division. In November 2002, this division merged with the Company's Tribeni
Tissues Division to form the Paperboards & Specialty Papers Division. ITC's
paperboards' technology, productivity, quality and manufacturing processes are
comparable to the best in the world. It has also made an immense contribution to the
development of Sarapaka, an economically backward area in the state of Andhra
Pradesh. It is directly involved in education, environmental protection and community
development. In 2004, ITC acquired the paperboard manufacturing facility of BILT
Industrial Packaging Co. Ltd (BIPCO), near Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. The Kovai Unit
allows ITC to improve customer service with reduced lead time and a wider product
range.
1985: Nepal Subsidiary - First Steps beyond National Borders
In 1985, ITC set up Surya Tobacco Co. in Nepal as an Indo-Nepal and British joint venture. In
August 2002, Surya Tobacco became a subsidiary of ITC Limited and its name was
changed to Surya Nepal Private Limited (Surya Nepal). In 2004, the company
diversified into manufacturing and exports of garments.
1990: Paperboards & Specialty Papers - Consolidation and Expansion
In 1990, ITC acquired Tribeni Tissues Limited, a Specialty paper manufacturing company and a
major supplier of tissue paper to the cigarette industry. The merged entity was named
the Tribeni Tissues Division (TTD). To harness strategic and operational synergies,
TTD was merged with the Bhadrachalam Paperboards Division to form the
Paperboards & Specialty Papers Division in November 2002.
1990: Agri Business - Strengthening Farmer Linkages.
Also in 1990, leveraging its agri-sourcing competency, ITC set up the Agri Business Division for
export of agri-commodities. The Division is today one of India's largest exporters.
ITC's unique and now widely acknowledged e-Choupal initiative began in 2000 with
soya farmers in Madhya Pradesh. Now it extends to 10 states covering over 4 million
farmers. Also, through the 'Choupal Pradarshan Khet' initiative, the agri services
vertical has been focusing on improving productivity of crops while deepening the
relationship with the farming community.
2002: Education & Stationery Products - Offering the Greenest products
ITC launched line of premium range of notebooks under brand Paperkraft in 2002. To augment
its offering and to reach a wider student population, the Classmate range of notebooks
was launched in 2003. Classmate over the years has grown to become India's largest
notebook brand and has also increased its portfolio to occupy a greater share of the
school bag. Years 2007- 2009 saw the launch of Practical Books, Drawing Books,
Geometry Boxes, Pens and Pencils under the 'Classmate' brand. In 2008, ITC
positioned the business as the Education and Stationery Products Business and
launched India's first environment friendly premium business paper under the
'Paperkraft' Brand. 'Paperkraft' offers a diverse portfolio in the premium executive
stationery and office consumables segment. In 2010, Colour Crew was launched as a
new brand of art stationery.
2000: Lifestyle Retailing - Premium Offerings
ITC also entered the Lifestyle Retailing business with the Wills Sport range of international
quality relaxed wear for men and women in 2000. The Wills Lifestyle chain of
exclusive stores later expanded its range to include Wills Classic formal wear (2002)
and Wills Clublife evening wear (2003). ITC also initiated a foray into the popular
segment with its men's wear brand, John Players, in 2002. In 2006, Wills Lifestyle
became title partner of the country's most premier fashion event - Wills Lifestyle India
Fashion Week - that has gained recognition from buyers and retailers as the single
largest B-2-B platform for the Fashion Design industry. To mark the occasion, ITC
launched a special 'Wills Signature', taking the event forward to consumers.
In 2000, ITC spun off its information technology business into a wholly
owned subsidiary, ITC Infotech India Limited, to more aggressively pursue emerging
opportunities in this area. Today ITC Infotech is one of India's fastest growing global
IT and IT-enabled services companies and has established itself as a key player in
offshore outsourcing, providing outsourced IT solutions and services to leading global
customers across key focus verticals - Banking Financial Services & Insurance
(BFSI), Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG), Retail, Manufacturing, Engineering
Services, Media & Entertainment, Travel, Hospitality, Life Sciences and
Transportation & Logistics.
2001: Branded Packaged Foods - Delighting Millions of Households
ITC's foray into the Foods business is an outstanding example of successfully blending multiple
internal competencies to create a new driver of business growth. It began in August
2001 with the introduction of 'Kitchens of India' ready-to-eat Indian gourmet dishes.
In 2002, ITC entered the confectionery and staples segments with the launch of the
brands mint-o and Candyman confectionery and Aashirvaad atta (wheat flour). 2003
witnessed the introduction of Sunfeast as the Company entered the biscuits segment.
ITC entered the fast growing branded snacks category with Bingo! in 2007. In 2010,
ITC launched Sunfeast Yippee! to enter the Indian instant noodles market. In just over
a decade, the Foods business has grown to a significant size under seven distinctive
brands, with an enviable distribution reach, a rapidly growing market share and a solid
market standing.
2002: Agarbattis & Safety Matches - Supporting the Small and Cottage Sector
In 2002, ITC's philosophy of contributing to enhancing the competitiveness of the entire value
chain found yet another expression in the Safety Matches initiative. ITC now markets
popular safety matches brands like iKno, Mangaldeep and Aim.
ITC's foray into the marketing of Agarbattis (incense sticks) in 2003 marked
the manifestation of its partnership with the cottage sector. Mangaldeep is a highly
established national brand and is available across a range of fragrances like Rose,
Jasmine, Bouquet, Sandalwood and 'Fragrance of Temple'.
2005: Personal Care Products - Expert Solutions for Discerning Consumers
ITC entered the Personal Care Business in 2005. In eight years, the Personal Care portfolio has
grown under 'Essenza Di Wills', 'Fiama Di Wills', 'Vivel' and 'Superia' brands which
have received encouraging consumer response and have been progressively extended
nationally. In May 2013, the business expanded its product portfolio with the launch
of Engage - one of India's first ranges of 'couple deodorants'
2010: Expanding the Tobacco Portfolio
In 2010, ITC launched its handrolled cigar, Armenteros, in the Indian market. Armenteros cigars
are available exclusively at tobacco selling outlets in select hotels, fine dining
restaurants and exclusive clubs.

FUTURE PROSPECTS OF ITC
ITC has a tremendous growth prospectus in future. All business profiles except cigarettes, has a
tremendous growth prospects in next two-three years down the line. Earlier ITC is
used to be treated as a cigarette company and always Budget is used to be very bad for
cigarette. Because with a blind eye, one is going to say that excise duty is going to get
increase on the cigarettes. Now the company has shifted in their many other areas like
retailing, paper, hotel, which are in fact contributing to a great extent. All their
business profiles, minus cigarettes, has a tremendous growth prospects in time to
come, maybe in two-three years down the line. On top of it, they have huge cash
inflow, which they can productively deploy in the other areas.

FUTURE PROSPECTS OF NESTLE INDIA
Nestle is focused on product expansion and improvement of distribution efficiency. The Dairy
business is being expanded and is expected to drive growth in the long run, although short-term
profitability may be impacted in the investment stage. The company’s entry into the mineral
water segment is a concern, as the segment is already overcrowded and the company faces stiff
competition especially from the Cola manufacturers. Acquisition of an established brand could
catapult Nestlé’s position in the segment. In categories like beverages, culinary products and
chocolate confectionery, the company is looking at driving growth through launch of smaller
SKU’s, thus enabling affordability to a wide section of the population.

FUTURE PROSPECTS OF BRITANNIA
Despite a strong focus on the lucrative foods segment, Britannia Industries is among the cheapest
FMCG stocks, with its current market price of Rs 1700 discounting expected 12-
month earnings by just 14 times. This is a steep discount not only to Nestle India (32
times), but also to every other leading player in the FMCG space. After ceding
significant market share to ITC in biscuits until 2006, Britannia Industries has
regained some market share over the past couple of years. A host of new product
rollouts (iron fortified Tiger, Good Day Classic), expansion of the premium portfolio
(Good Day and Treat), the positioning of Nutri Choice as a snacking alternative and
the launch of Nano packs at Rs 2 and Rs 5 price points have all helped revive
Britannia’s sales. Going ahead, an expanding cakes and rusks portfolio (the business
has doubled in two years), further expansion of the Daily Bread bakery business and
new markets for Britannia’s brands in West Asia and Africa (through acquired
subsidiaries), offer growth opportunities. Though Britannia has managed to stabilize
its market share and add new product lines, strong top line growth hasn’t translated
into earnings growth. A sharp spiral in prices of commodity inputs such as wheat
flour, vegetable oils/fats and milk has resulted in earnings growth (12 per cent)
lagging sales (25 per cent). However, a moderation in wheat prices and sharp decline
in global prices of vegetable oils and milk have now significantly moderated cost
pressures. The lag effect of these, as well as the price increases taken in
September/October, may contribute to much better margins in the coming quarters.
For investors seeking a defensive option in choppy markets, the stock of Britannia
Industries is an attractive buy. With a product basket comprising biscuits, bakery and
dairy products and brands straddling several price points, Britannia’s portfolio is
among the least vulnerable, even within FMCGs, to any consumption slowdown. A
slew of product launches, efforts to position biscuits as snacking alternatives for adults
and forays into new segments have helped the company register healthy sales growth
and ward off threat to its market share. Low margins and spiraling input costs have
been the only point of concern in the company’s financials in recent quarters. Here,
signs of moderation in prices of key inputs promise a reprieve.

CONCLUSION
This sector will continue to see growth as it depends on an ever-increasing internal market for
consumption, and demand for these goods remains more or less constant, irrespective
of recession or inflation. Hence this sector will grow, though it may not be a smooth
growth path, due to the present world-wide economic slowdown, rising inflation and
fall of the rupee. This sector will see good growth in the long run and hiring will
continue to remain robust.
Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) goods are popularly named as consumer packaged
goods. Items in this category include all consumables (other than groceries/pulses)
people buy at regular intervals. The most common in the list are toilet soaps,
detergents, shampoos, toothpaste, shaving products, shoe polish, packaged foodstuff,
and household accessories and extends to certain electronic goods. These items are
meant for daily of frequent consumption and have a high return. The Indian FMCG
sector is the fourth largest sector in the economy with a total market size in excess of
US$ 13.1 billion. It has a strong MNC presence and is characterized by a well
established distribution network, intense competition between the organized and
unorganized segments and low operational cost. Availability of key raw materials,
cheaper labour costs and presence across the entire value chain gives India a
competitive advantage. The FMCG market is set to treble from US$ 11.6 billion in
2003 to US$ 33.4 billion in 2015. Penetration level as well as per capita consumption
in most product categories like jams, toothpaste, skin care, hair wash etc in India is
low indicating the untapped market potential. Burgeoning Indian population,
particularly the middle class and the rural segments, presents an opportunity to makers
of branded products to convert consumers to branded products. Growth is also likely
to come from consumer 'upgrading' in the matured product categories. With 200
million people expected to shift to processed and packaged food by 2010, India needs
around US$ 28 billion of investment in the food-processing industry.
