1). Planning & Operational department : - Planning is the first and foremost activity of any organization. Rest all activity are depended upon it.
No organization can survive for a long period without proper planning of the different undertaking at a different department. At every stage planning has to be done. First of all planning is made relating to the goal of an organization and accordingly the department at a different level plan and accomplishes the goal. In the same way at HPCL also according to the requirement of the dealer and consumption they plan for the future requirement. Again here also they should be aware of the stock which is available with them in the tanks, order received from customer, goods in transit etc. Their planning again depend upon the retail outlet i.e. their petrol pumps, what is the quantity available with them, how much order is received, how much they are going to receive the product from head office etc. Here again they keep in mind the total market of the region, like other retail outlets turnover their share in the market and at what rate the requirement will increase.

Here also maintenance is required for the fuel tank, pipe lines both within the organization and also of those which are coming from Loni port to HPCL, water tanks, motors, other machinery etc. The fuel tank is used for 5 years for storage and then after every 5 years maintenance is done for it. For that they need to empty the whole tank and undertake the whole maintenance works which include checking the thickness of the plate form outside, inside, downward, checking of any leakage or weak area of the tank, painting etc. There are two manholes in the tank which is kept open for some days so that the gas which is present in it gets exhaust in air. Also there are huge numbers of motors of 50 to 150 hp which also require maintenance at regular interval of time. Pipe lines also need maintenance because the whole activity is depend upon it only that is flow of fuel from one place to another. Leakages and weak area are identified and repaired.
3). Finance department: - Finance department is maintaining the accounts, for income, expenditure, payment of custom and excise duties, billing for cash and credit sales etc. Whatever the requirements are there in the different departments first of all they communicate to the finance department and as per the availability of fund they inform to the relevant department.

Balaji institute of Telecom & Management
Informational flow plays an important part in an organization to communicate easily with other departments and get proper, correct and easy way to work in big organization such as HPCL.
In HPCL the information flows from top management to lower management like a SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT so that the process of information spread easily in organization. The product is send by head quarter and HO work as a top management they pass it on information about the product to the planning and operational department about it.

In which ship it’s coming? After that the port communicates to finance department that fulfill all the formality of Custom so that product get easily departed from vessel to pipeline for the terminal.
After that port authorities again communicate to planning and operational department before 1 hour by sending mail that they are now starting to pump the product through pipeline.

The way to collect the data needed is to Interact with the Dealers.
Interaction with the Retailers has 3 main steps :-
Meeting with Dealers
Asking open creative questions about what is required.
Using a 'content mirror' to ensure understanding and show you
are listening and interested.
Data collected is of two types:-
Quantitative data
Qualitative data
To analyse quantitative data, statistical tool used are COLUMN CHARTS
To analyse the qualitative data, personal sense of judgment, knowledge
about the company and growing personal experience in the market with
the passage of time played a vital role.

In 1889 during vast industrial development, an important player in the South Asian market was the Burmah Oil Company. Though incorporated in Scotland in 1886, the company grew out of the enterprises of the Chef Rohit Oil Company, which had been formed in 1871 to refine crude oil produced from primitive hand dug wells in Upper Burma.
In 1928, Asiatic Petroleum Company (India) started cooperation with Burma oil company. This alliance led to the formation of Burmah-Shell Oil Storage and Distributing Company of India Limited. Burmah Shell began its operations with import and marketing of Kerosene.
On 24 January 1976, the Burmah Shell was taken over by the Government of India to form Bharat Refineries Limited. On 1 August 1977, it was renamed Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited. It was also the first refinery to process newly found indigenous crude Bombay High.
In 2003, following a petition by the Centre for Public Interest Litigation, the Supreme Court restrained the Central government from privatizing Hindustan Petroleum and Bharat Petroleum without the approval of Parliament.[3] As counsel for the CPIL, Rajinder Sachar and Prashant Bhushan said that the only way to disinvest in the companies would be to repeal or amend the Acts by which they were nationalized in the 1970s.[4] As a result, the government would need a majority in both houses to push through any privatization.

Few of the respondents were not open with their responses.
Lack of Dealers cooperation was a major constraint.

6). Most of the employees /Dealers of HPCL Petrol pumps were not aware about ARB
7). HPCL has also embarked on a beautification drive of all its petrol stations to bring it under the Club HP brand umbrella.
8). 17 out of 25 HPCL Petrol pumps were having ARB.
SUGGESTION & RECOMMENDATION
1) Service has to be improved extensively. Due to poor service
many Outlets have stopped or keeping low stocks of the
products.
56
Balaji institute of Telecom & Management
2) Company should select its Dealers properly as their
behaviour portrays either a negative image or positive image
of the company in the market.
3) A proper check should be kept on the prices at which our
products are available to the final retailers. Whether they are
getting proper margins, whether they have been exploited
by the distributor or not. All these point should be given
emphasis.
4) Proper check should be kept on Local & Duplicate Products.
5) Small Outlets also play an important role towards company
sales, therefore proper attention should be shown towards
them also.
6) Delivery time can be reduced by using an online billing
system.
