1. COMPANY PROFILE
A .BACKGROUND AND INCEPTION OF THE COMPANY
Late Shri V.S. ShirgaokarLate Shri Suresh (Babu Kaka) Shirgaokar
Ex-Chairman Emeritus, Chairman & Managing Director of The Ugar Sugar Works Ltd and Visionary of our group.
Ex. Chairman & Managing Director of The Ugar Sugar Works Ltd and Visionary of our group
Late. Shri. V. S. Shirgaokar was the founder of the UGAR
SUGAR WORKS LTD. He was born on 15th April 1897 and passed away on 22nd
Jan.1996. The company is located at Ugar-khurd.
About sixty years ago Ugar Khurd was a small hamlet in the erstwhile princely state of
Sangli.
It was however blessed with two great advantages; On its south flowed the perennial river
KLS INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT EDUCATION AND RESEARCH Page 1
THE UGAR SUGAR WORKS LTD.
Krishna and on the north, was situated the railway station of Ugar Khurd on the meter
gauge line between Miraj and Bangalore, now changed to broad gauge.
Conditions were ideal for somebody to harness the two advantages and
exploit the fertility of the loamy soil. An abortive attempt was made in late thirties to start
a sugar industry. After that, the then ruler of Sangli invited the late Dr.S.R.Shirgaokar -
who had previous experience of setting up a sugar factory at Kolhapur, to embark on the
unexplored venture which he did with great dexterity and the slumbering village of Ugar
Khurd was transformed into a humming industrial township in a few years. Today, Ugar
is equivalent to a mini city with a decent sized population and having agriculture
concentrated employment surrounding the sugar manufacturing focussed township.
Dr.S.R. Shirgaokar deputed his competent nephew Shri.V.S.Shirgaokar
to purchase a sugar plant from Moholi Sugar Factory in Sitapur District in Bihar and
install it at Ugar Khurd. The Ugar Sugar Works hence found a very competent
navigator in one of its visionaries- Late Shri V.S.Shirgaokar. The 500 TCD plant was
purchased, installed and the first crushing season was started on the 21st of April,
1942.
After a succesful innings, the late V.S Shirgaokar then passed on the
reins of the group to his younger brother- Shri Suresh Shirgaokar, popularly known as
‘Babu Kaka’. Babu Kaka took the organization further ahead and it was under his able
leadership that the crushing capacity of the company underwent further
expansion(10,000TCD).
Presently, the crushing capacity of the organization is 15,000 TCD.(Ugar & Unit-
Jewargi).
Sooner than later, the company diversified its activities and started its own
distillery in the year 1962-63 and then added the liquor section in the year 1967-68. The
company is producing high quality premium brands like Old Castle Whisky,
Gokak Falls Whiskey, US Rum, Doctors Brandy, Gagarin Vodka and the company's
brands are well accepted by the market
KLS INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT EDUCATION AND RESEARCH Page 2
THE UGAR SUGAR WORKS LTD.
The company has setup a new distillery plant for producing 45,000 litres
rectified spirit including 10000 litres ENA per day during the year 1994-95 and
this plant running very successful thereafter. This is in addition to the existing 30000
litres per day old distiller plant.
Thereafter, the company further diversified and set up a first-in-its-kind-in
in India Co-Generation Power Plant of 44 MW. This was based on the principle
of bagasse based renewable sources of energy used as fuel. Out of which 28 MW are
being exported to the grid and the rest of the 16 MW are used for captive consumption.

Cane / R & D Department
The Ugar Sugar Works Limited has a separate Research & Development Department recognized by the Ministry of Science and Technology, New Delhi in 1978. The emphasis of agricultural R and D is understandably on sugarcane. The main objective of the Research and Development wing is to make a continuous effort to identify more dual purpose sugarcane varieties with high sucrose, high yielding potential and reasonably high fibre content. COM-88121 and Co-85019 are getting good acceptance by the cultivators. Co-7508 shows a good promise in saline soils. Co-95020 is the suitable variety for the Co-generation plant.
CoC-671 variety dominated other varieties for more than one and half decades. The R & D Section can rightly claim the credit for the introduction of the CoC-671 variety in Northern Karnataka as also some areas of the adjoining state of Maharashtra. Co-86032 and Co-94012 are also high yielding and high sucrose sugarcane varieties introduced recently. Co-89014 & Co-88025 are in the pipeline.
Ugar's R & D department won the prestigious S.V.Parthasarathy Award eight times in nine years since its inception in 1985 for very effective R & D work in the agriculture of sugarcane. Recently it was also awarded by SISSTA, Chennai on 13th August, 2005.
We are launching a massive programme of soil amelioration and popularization of green manuring crops like Dhiancha (Sesbania aculata) and Sunnhemp (crotolaria

juncea) and ploughing them in the soil while still green.
The work with Wheat, Soybean and Sunflower is reasonably successful as a rotation of crop and useful indications are likely to be obtained this year. Experiments on wheat under the guidance of CIMMYT (South America), ICARDA (Middle East), Agarkar Institute Pune (MACS), U.A.S. Dharwad and ICAR, New Delhi are laid on a big scale & the stand of crop is excellent. Vinayak (DWR-162) wheat variety identified by our R & D Wing is not only popular in this part of country but in Indonesia, it is also released as 'Devata' and has spread like wild fire. Our work on wheat has been internationally acknowledged.
His excellency, the President of India, A.P.J.Abdul Kalam in his speech. mentioned the raising Jatropha curcas (Raton Jyot) cultivation as one of the "Ten Immediate Missions" for achieving the goals of rural development, apart from producing Bio-diesel.

M.PROCESS FLOW CHART & DESCRIPTION OF EACH PROCESS:
a) Sugarcane is harvested and clean sugarcane is loaded in the vehicles and brought to the factory. The gross weight is taken and sugarcane is unloaded on the feeder table with the help of electric crane. The tare weight of the vehicle is taken to arrive at the weight of the sugar cane.
b) Cane is fed to cane carries from the feeder table. The preparatory devices viz. kickers, cutters, fibrizer etc. are installed on the carrier for the preparation of cane. The prepared cane is taken to mills by second carries where juice is extracted using compound ambition process and hot water is applied for maximum extraction before last mill. Mixed juice is strained and sent for processing water for ambition and mixed juice both are weighted in automatic weighing scale and mass flow meter respectively. Bagasse (residue of cane after juice extraction) is used as fuel in the boiler and surplus bagasse saved in the form of bales.
c) Mixed juice is clarified by sulphitation process by heating at 70oc in a juice heater. Phosphoric acid, sulphur dioxide gas and milk of lime are used as a clarificants. These are thoroughly mixed in juice sulphiter. Then the sulphited juice is heated to 105oc in another juice heater. This juice is passed on to continuous clarifies through flash tank for settling. The settled mud is filtered with the help of vaccum filter where the filterates are separated and sent back to process. Hot condensate water is used to wash the cake with minimum sugar content is sent out as bye product Decanted clear juice from clarifier is taken to evaporator (multi effects). The concentration is increased to syrup consistency. The heat required for heating and evaporation is used from exhausted steam and the bled vapours from the evaporators. Exhaust steam is obtained from prime mover turbine of power generation.
d) The syrup from evaporators is bleached by using sulphur di oxide. The sugar is produced from further concentration of this syrup and sugar melt by evaporation in vaccum pan. The necessary seed crystals are taken in the pan and boiled with syrup at about 60oc. This give ‘A’ massecuite. ‘A’ massecuite from the pan is discharged into crystallizers. Then the sugar crystals are separated from the surrounding film of mother liquor in centrifugal machine. The separated liquor is called as ‘A’ Heavy molasses and dried with superheated water wash is dropped on the Hopper and elevated to the top of grader by bucket elevator and graded according to the size and then it is bagged in ‘A’ Twill bag 100kg. net.

1. 5S CONCEPT: 5S is the name of a workplace organization methodology that uses a list of five Japanese words which are Seiri, Seiton, Seiso, seiketsu and Shitsuke. Translated into English, they all start with the letter “S”. The list describes how items are stored and how the new order is maintained.
PHASES OF 5S: There are 5 primary phases of 5S: SORTING, STRAIGHTENING, SYSTEMATIC CLEANING, STANDERDISING, AND SUSTAINING.
1. SORTING: Eliminates all unnecessary tools, parts, and instruction. Go through all tools, materials, and so forth in the plant and work area. Keep only essential items and eliminate what is not required.
2. STRAIGHTENING: The place for each item should be clearly labeled. Items are arranged in a manner that promotes efficient work flow, with equipment used most often being the most easily accessible. There is need to workers to bend repetitively to access materials. Each tool, part, supply, or piece of equipment are kept close to where it will be used.
3. SYSTEMATIC CLEANING: Keep the workplace tidy and organized. At the end of each shift, clean the work area and be sure everything is restored to its place. This make it easy to know what goes where and ensures that everything is where it belongs.
4. STANDARDIZING:
KLS INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT EDUCATION AND RESEARCH Page 24
THE UGAR SUGAR WORKS LTD.
Work practices should be consistent and standardize. All work stations for a particular job should be identical. All employees doing the same job should be able to work in any station with the same tools that are in the same location in every station.
5. SUSTAINING: Maintain and review standards. Once the previous 4 S’s have been established, they become the new way to operate. Maintain focus on this new way and do not allow a gradual decline back to the old ways.
2. KAIZEN: Kaizen stands for “improvement” or “change for the better”, refers to philosophy or practices that focus upon continuous improvement of processes in manufacturing, engineering, supporting business processs, and management. By improving standardized activities and processes, kaizen aims to eliminate waste.
IMPLEMENTATION OF KAIZEN:The Toyota production system is known for kaizen, where all line
personnel are expected to stop their moving production line in case of any abnormality and, with their supervisor, suggest an improvement to resolve the abnormality which may initiate a kaizen.
The cycle of kaizen activity can be defined as:
Standardize an operation Measure the standardized operation (find cycle time and amount of in-process
inventory) Gauge measurements against requirements and increase production Standardize the new, improved operations
KLS INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT EDUCATION AND RESEARCH Page 25
THE UGAR SUGAR WORKS LTD.
Continue cycle ad infinitum
3. SGA/QUALITY CIRCLE: A quality circle is a volunteer group composed of workers, usually under the leadership of their supervisor, who are trained to identify, analyze and solve work-related problems and present their solutions to management in order to improve the performance of the organization, and motivate and enrich the work of employees.
The term quality circles derives from the concept of PDCA (Plan, DO, Check, Act) circles developed by Dr. W. Edwards Deming.
Quality circles are not normally paid a share of the cost benefit of any improvements but usually a proportion of the savings made is spent on improvements to the work environment.
KLS INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT EDUCATION AND RESEARCH Page 26
THE UGAR SUGAR WORKS LTD.
4. SIX SIGMA:Six sigma is a business management strategy originally developed by
Motorola, USA in 1986. As of 2010 [update], it is widely used in many sectors of industry.
Six sigma seeks to improve the quality of process outputs by identifying and removing the cause of defects and minimizing variability in manufacturing and business process.
The term six sigma originated from terminology associated with manufacturing, specifically terms associated with statistical modeling of manufacturing processes.
METHODS: Six sigma projects follow two project methodologies inspired by
Deming’s Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle. DMAIC is used for projects aimed at improving an existing business process.
DMAIC is pronounced as “duh-may-ick”. DMADV is used for projects aimed at creating new product or process
designs. DMADV is pronounced as “duh-mad-vee”
KLS INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT EDUCATION AND RESEARCH Page 27
THE UGAR SUGAR WORKS LTD.
5. TQM (TOTAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT): TQM is an integrative philosophy of management for continuously improving the quality of products and processes. It is used around the world.
TQM functions on the premise that the quality of products and processes is the responsibility of everyone who is involved with the creation or consumption of the products or services offered by an organization. In other words, TQM capitalizes on the involvement of management, workforce, suppliers, and even customers, in order to meet or exceed customer expectations.

6. ISO 9001 (INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR STANDARDIZATON): ISO, is an international standard-setting body composed of representatives from various national standards organizations, Founded on February 23, 1947.
The organization which today is known as ISO began in 1926 as the International Federation of the National Standardizing Associations (ISA).
ISO is a voluntary organization whose members are recognized standard authorities, each one representing one country. The bulk of the work of ISO is done by the 2700 technical committee, subcommittees and working groups.
