INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
Polyvinyl-Chloride (PVC) is a plastic product which has matchless versatility. It
effectively replaces wood, paper and metal in several applications. As such plastic pipes have
been progressively replacing conventional pipes like G.I., Cast iron, Asbestos cement or stone-
ware for a number of important and uses. Among the various types of plastic pipes which are
commonly used for such applications PVC pipes are the most widely used all over the world on
account of their most favorable balance of properties. PVC pipes are light in weight, rates for
use under pressure, easy to install, low functional loss, low on maintenance cost, and have low
functional loss. Rigid PVC pipes have wide variety of uses in fields like city/town/rural water
supply scheme, spray irrigation, deep tube well schemes and land drainage schemes.
Plastics are also called synthetic resins and are broadly classified into two categories;
thermosetting resins and thermoplastic resins. The thermosetting resins include phenol resin and
melamine resin, which are thermally hardened and never soften again. Thermoplastic resins
include PVC, polyethylene(PE), polystyrene(PS) and polypropylene(PP), which can be softened
again by heating. Usually, thermoplastics are supplied in the form of pelletized material
(compounds) with additives (anti- oxidants, etc.) already blended in it. However, PVC is
supplied in powder form and long term storage is possible since the material is resistant to
oxidizing and degradation. Various additives and pigments are added to PVC during the
processing stage, and then molded and fabricated into PVC products. PVC is better known as
bineel (vinyl) in Japan. This is due to the fact that PVC products, in the form of films or sheets,
were widely used among the public after World War II, and these products were simply called
bineel. When these PVC products that are soft to the touch first landed Japan, where only rigid
thermosetting resins had been known, they left a very strong impression among the population.
This is how bineel mistakenly became a synonym for all soft films including polyethylene
films.
MARKET POTENTIAL
PVC pipes are used for a variety of purposes e.g. water supply schemes, spray irrigation,
deep tube well schemes and land drainage schemes. PVC slotted and corrugated pipes are ideal
systems for drainages of water from land where water logging is inevitable. It is widely used by
various utility services now-a-days too. The major consumer of PVC pipes are the Public Health
Engineering Department (PHED) and Irrigation Departments. Besides these two, it is used by
the Municipal Corporations, Tea estates as well as in N.E. Region. The usage of PVC pipes also
depends upon the size of these pipes too. It is manufactured in different sizes having
innumerable usage value.
The World Bank has recently given top priority in rural water supply in developing and under-
developed countries. India has also received large amounts from World Bank aid for Rural
Water Supply Schemes. However, due to the acute shortage of appliances including pipes this
money could not be utilized to a large extent in our country. Thus PVC/HDPE pipe
manufacturing industry has received higher priority. The requirement of PVC pipes in N.E.
Region is around 10,000 MT out of which the requirement in Assam is more than 50% followed
by Tripura and other five states of N.E. Region. At present there exist around 5 PVC pipes
manufacturing units in the region.
Plant Capacity: The production basis for a typical tiny unit would be as under: Working
hours/day : 8 (1 shift) Working days in a year : 300 Annual Production capacity : 150 MT
PVC Pipes as follows:

The unit has been assumed to operate at 70%, 80% and 90% of its installed capacity in the first,
second and third year and onwards of its operation.
THE EARLY HISTORY OF PVC PIPES
“Many of you have expressed a curiosity about the historical development of PVC pipe.
In response to your requests, we provide you with this brief early history of PVC pipes and
fittings.
PVC was discovered as early as1835, but the first definite report of the polymerization o
vinyl chloride did not come until about 35 years later. At that time, the material was to be
reported to be an off-white solid that could be heated to 130 degree C without degradation.
PVC remained laboratory curiosity for many years, probably because of its intractable
nature. The polymer was inert to most chemicals and very tough(strong). These properties
eventually led scientist to consider PVS for applications where durability and toughness were
desirable.
In 1912 the first industrial developments were initiated in Germany. Throughout the
1920’s, attempts were made to use PVC copolymers that easier process than PVC. These early
attempts were only marginally successful.
By 1932, the first tubes made from aPVC copolymer were produced. Nearly three years
later the first PVC pipes were produced using a roll mill and hydraulic extruder.This two steps
process involved melting the PVC powder on a roll mill and rolling the sheet produced up to a
billet. The PVC Could then be processed in a discontinuously working ram extruder to make
pipe. This process was adapted from that used for celluloid and was really ill-fittedfor PVC. As
a result, the products were often oh dubiousquality.
Never –the-less, these earlyPVC pipes were deemed suitable for drinking water supply
piping and waste water piping because of their chemical resistance, lack of taste or odor and
smooth interior surface. From 1936 to 1939 over 400 residences were installed with PVC
drinking water and waste pipelines in central Germany. Various test pipelines of PVC was laid
in Leipzig,
Both the pipelines for chemicals and those for water supply and waste water came upto
expectations, as did the test pipe lines in the cities mentioned above, apart from damage caused
by World War 2. The PVC pipes installed in central Germany are still in use today without any
major problems. In retrospect, these first PVC pipes had been made before their time, before the
material compounds and machines for their manufacture had been perfected. It was not until
1950 that the systematic development ofextrusion technology began. Prior to this, the
manufacture of PVC pipe remained make shift and the use of PVC pies did not become
widespread.
The 1950’s and 1960’s were decades of dramatic advances for PVC pipe and fitting
technology. Encouraged by the results obtained from the primitive pre-war PVC pipelines,
several European and American companies realized the enormous potential for PVC pipes.
These companies pursued the technology, both in formulation and processing. Systematic
research and trials were successful in the development of effective stabilizers, lubricant and
processing aids together with processing machinery engineered specifically for PVC. During
this time period, PVC pipe began competing with traditional products in a number of major
markets, such as: gas distribution; sewer and drainage; water distribution; electrical conduit;
chemical processing; and drain, waste and vent piping.”
The Indian pipe industry with presence across all the categories of pipe (steel, cement
and plastic) has become a major exporting hub to the regions like Middle East, US and Europe
due to its location advantage and global accreditations. Also the lower oil and gas pipe line
penetration level in India provides huge opportunity for laying new pipeline infrastructure in the
country, considering its vast geographical area.
The operating environment for the Indian pipe industry was challenging during 2012.
The steel pipe companies expanded their capacities domestically as well as globally during the
last couple of years, which led to excess capacities. Hence, most of the domestic players had to
resort lower margin orders domestically to maintain their order books. The higher input and
finance costs significantly eroded their profitability margins.
CARE research expects the demand for Indian pipe industry to improve from 2014 and
remain healthy over the long term, both on the global as well as domestic fronts, on the back of
increasing demand arising from oil, gas & infrastructure projects. Enhanced global energy
demand arising from increasing population and economic spending in the emerging market will
lead to need for higher exploration and product(E&P) activity, giving boost to the demand for
steel pipe segment. Shale gas discovery is likely to increase demand or pipeline infrastructure
globally.
CARE Researches report on the ‘Indian Pipe Industry’ seeks to answer questions such
as: What is the estimated steel and plastic pipes demand over the next five years? What is the
current level of SAW, ERW, DI and seamless pipe capacities expected capacities? What is the
estimated domestic and global demand for pipes from oil&gas segment? What is the estimated
SAW pipe demand arising from replacement market? What are the key cost components
incurred by Indian pipe companies? What are the price realization trends for major pipe
players?
CARE Research also provide outlook on the pipes industry demand including exports
demand. We have estimated demand within each segment of steel pipes like SAW, Seamless,
DI pipes etc. the report takes in to account several initiatives undertaken by the Indian
Government to provide basic water supply and sanitation also emphasizes on oil and gas sector
expansion plans domestically and globally.

INDUSTRY PROFILE
INDUSTRY PROFILE
As per CARE Research, Indian pipe manufacturers will be greatly benefited when
Exploration and Production (E&P) project for oil and gas companies which were previously
stalled or revoked because of the global financial crisis recommence their operations.
CARE Research’sreport on ‘Indian pipe industry’ gives valuable insight of the industry
on global and domestic capacities, demand–supply gap analysis of domestic market, export
market for domestic companies, replacement demand, competition and commentary on top
industry players. We have reported demand break-up within each segment of steel pipes like
SAW,ERW and Seamless pipes.
For SAW pipes, our demand forecasting is derived from several upcoming pipeline
projects expected in India globally coupled with the replacement demand.For ERW pipes,
which are primarily used for City Gas Distribution network, we have calculated our demand
based on several ongoing natural gas pipeline projects in India. For Seamless pipes which are
extensively used for E&P projects; our demand is based on onshore and offshore metreage
drilled. Additionally, we have detailed analysis of PVC and HDPE pipes which have become
preferred material in the construction industry and several government projects. The cost
analysis and pricing information presented in the report will help the reader identify the critical
items and their trends.
The company overview section in the report provides detailed profiles of the top seven
players in the industry, including their financial and operational data and product range. The
report also provides manufacturing process and technical aspects in the industry overview
section.
The report provides CAARE Research’s outlook and challenges on Indian pipe industry
for the next 3-5 years along with adetailed demand break-up within each sub-segment of steel
pipes. CARE Research has developed a robust methodology for forecasting domestic demand. It
takes into account several initiatives taken by the Indian government to provide basic water
supply and sanitation and also emphasis on oil and gas sector which serves s a backbone to the
pipe industry as awhole.

FINANCE DEPARTMENT
The activities expected from a finance department cover a wide range from
basicbookkeeping to providing information to assisting managers in making strategic
decisions. What to expect from your finance department will depend largely on factors such as
how much involvement the owner/manager has in the organization.
At the base level, your finance department will be responsible for all the day to day
transactional accounting for the business. This will include the tracking of all transactions and
the management of any government reporting. In very small owner-managed businesses this
role is often filled by a family member with accounting experience. An outside accounting firm
is usually used for annual FINANCIAL statements and returns. In larger organizations this
role will extend right through to preparing the FINANCIAL statements with an external auditor
engaged for assurance purposes.
Main purpose of prepare accounting statement is to as certain profit and loss during the
specified period and show the financial condition of the business. Accounting is the process of
recording, classifying summarizing and interpreting the financial information about the
activities of a concern. The various account records are useful for a concern to take intelligent
financial decision.
The company maintains various books of accounts for recording financial transaction.
The book maintained by the company are listed below.
1. CASH BOOK
As the name suggest the purpose of this book is to record transaction-involving cash n
day to day basis at the end of every day. The balance is arrived to determine the clearing cash
balance of the day cash receipts and payments are recorded in the cash book.
2. BANK BOOK
The objectives of this book is to record the receipts and payments made payments made
through bank cheques, drafts etc. cash deposited into bank are recorded on the debit side of the
book and payments made by way of cheques and drafts are recorded on the credit state of the
book.
3. SALES REGISTER

Raw Material
The main raw material required compounded PVC resin. Presently both PVC&
Polyethylene Plastics raw materials are indigenously manufactured. Other compounding
materials like Plastisizers, Stabilizers, Lubricants and fillers are also manufactured in India. No
problem is envisaged for procurement of PVC resin and the other required compounding
materials. The raw materials required are as follows:
Process
The various process steps involved in the manufacture of PVC pipes are as follows:
Extrusion
Sizing
Traction
Cutting
Extrusion
PVC uncompounded resin, unlike some other thermoplastics is not suitable for direct
processing and end instability, it is necessary to mix additives to the PVC resin. Following are
some of the addittives which are generally used for the manufacture of rigid pipes.
Stabilizers: The common stabilizers are lead, barium, cadmium, tip, stearate etc..
Fillers: Fillers are also used for producing special quality product (e.g. calcined clay is used to
improve the electrical properties of cable compounds).
Sizing:
The pipes coming out from the extruder is cooled in the sizing operation. There are
basically two types of sizing is used for manufacturing of pipes. They are:
Pressure sizing
Vacuum sizing
Traction:
The last operation is needed is cutting. There are basically two cutting techniques for rigid
PVC pipes viz. manual and automatic. The pipes are then tented for ISI marks and are ready for
Dispatching.
Machinery:
Windsor Model TSC-80 Rigid pipe plant for pipes 90 and 110 mm OD -1no.

SUGGESTIONS
SUGGESTIONS
NATIONAL PLASTICS PIPE industry can improve its efficiency by bring down the
cost of production to certain extent. There should be a reduction in the amount invested
in the stock.
The training indicates promotional activities are influence sale, so company introduces
new and modern and innovative promotional activities like “deal of the day” “deal of the
week” “deal of the month”.
To give discount on existing customer in an new purchase that is makes more purchase
and attract existing customers.
CHAPTER 9
CONCLUSION
CONCLUSION
Production, installation and operation include numerous factors which can affect the
lifetime of a PVC pipe. These factors appear to interact with each other under certain conditions
resulting in different failure mechanisms. However, given their limitations, the predicted
lifetimes are certainly open to dispute, as no model encompassing all possible failure
mechanisms has been proposed yet.
Research on material degradation reveals that the properties of PVC sewer pipes
in operation have not altered significantly or at all, whereas a lifetime that exceeds 100 years is
usually suggested. Only one case of failure is recorded, concerning a sewer main, and the failure
was attributed to poor extrusion quality. However, there is no published research on the effect
of sewage on the elastomeric seals of PVC systems.
Inspection data from three Dutch municipalities highlights that PVC sewer pipes
have already developed all types of known defects, whereas degradation evolves with time at a
relatively fast rate. Analysis of a larger inspection data set will allow the detection of a possible
connection between defects (types, rates) and elements of the system (diameter, type of drainage
pipe, soil cover, etc.).
