j. Main findings of DSR • Low yield of cashew kernels i.e. around 22% only.

• Improper gradation leads to loss of revenue.

• Lack of awareness and measure of quality

assurance.

• Infestation measures not up to the desired level by

a number of units.

• Packaging is not up to desired level.

• Requirement of huge working capital.

• Inadequate credit flow for working capital.

14. Problems of the cluster Poor linkage with R & D Institutions, High unit cost of power, High cost of raw materials, irregular availability

of consumables and stores.

15. Need for CFC The high content of silica to the extent of around 80-

90% in rice husk ash offers it as a potential raw material for production of various value added silica

based products such as Sodium Silicate, Silica gel, precipitated silica etc. As such the availability of

commercially viable technologies for conversion of rice husk ash into silica based value added products

have been explored.

Production of edible variety of Rice bran oil has

gained importance in Burdwan and its adjoining

districts in recent time in view of its health friendly

characteristics. The low level of SFA and high level of

PUFA in edible grade of rice bran oil are the typical

characteristics of rice bran oil. The accurate and fast

production of test results plays an important role in the

valuation of the products.

Agenda No.30.15: Soft Interventions in Agarbati Works Cluster of Baruipur, South

24 Parganas

1. Brief information of Cluster

Name of the

Cluster

Agarbati Works Cluster of Baruipur

Location The cluster is predominant at Phooltala, Shakari, Pukur, Ramnagar, Kurali,

Chhayani, Kakgaru, Uttarbhag, Paruldha and Baruipur block of South 24

Parganas.

Products Raw Agarbati Stick (90 percent) and Perfumed Agarbati stick (10 percent)

Technological

details, pollution, etc.

The cluster mostly produces raw (non-perfumed) agarbatti sticks of

bamboo. Bamboos are cut by hand into small and fine sticks. Required bamboo is mostly available in Tirpura. Often, due to flooding supply of

sticks get choaked. The sticks are sorted and sometimes those are also coloured. One important issue is that often there will be need for drying of

sticks.

“Gola Masala” - combination of charcoal powder, powder of jiggat bark

and plywood dust is used for making agarbati. The stick is then sun dried.

At present there are only 2 pulverisers in the entire cluster. A high capacity

common pulveriser along with appropriate sieving machine will help

prepare appropriate quality of pastes.

There is no training organization in the cluster.

Preparation of perfumed sticks goes through three more steps, an area

which is almost absent from the cluster.

Main problems

of cluster • Lack of availability of bamboo sticks during rainy seasons and

difficulty in getting two important raw materials – bark of garan and

jiggat

• There is no R&D to replace jiggat as a raw material

• The industry is operating only on 10 percent of the value chain

• Training of labour force is a costly and time consuming affair.

• No laboratory to prepare perfumes or stock perfumes. Impurities in raw

materials lead to less efficient and defective raw stick preparation

• Lack of training in science of perfuming

• Severely restricted to least value added raw sticks and missing out on

growing export, wholesale, retail market of perfumed stick

• No idea of the marketing strategy if they enter into the perfumed stick

business

• Lack of water and fragrance proof packaging

• Lack of pulverisation and appropriate technology for mechanical sieving.

Agenda No.30.16 Soft Interventions in Brass Metal Cluster in Bali, Goghat, Hooghly

1. Brief information of Cluster

Name of the Cluster Brass Metal Cluster in Bali, Goghat

Location Spread over four villages, namely, Bali, Kalagachia, Udhayrajpur and

Radhaballavpur on the banks of river ‘Dwarakeswar’ in Bali Gram

Panchayet under Goghat-I Development Block of Hooghly

Products Different sizes of Pitchers (known as Ghora and Ghoti in local

language)

Technological

details, pollution, etc.

Cluster artisans use recycled brass scraps. Pitcher are made with two

or three dies. All these are made of clay obtained from the river nearby. Scrap of brass metal is heated in a furnace. Required quantity

of zinc is added and is heated to a temperature of about 1,050°C. The molten metal is then poured into the die by inverting the crucible.

Pitcher is buffed and polished. The process wastage makes cost of production higher by an amount of

Rs. 4/- per piece. The technical feasibility of replacing clay die with

metal die may be examined. The feasibility of sand casting as in

vogue at Moradabad may also be studied.

Pollution is an issue. No units have chimneys and exhaust fans. The

workers are inhaling smoke and metal fumes. Face, hands, legs and

eyes of workers are exposed to a very high temperature because they

don’t use any protective covers. In the buffing and scraping operations

a lot of black dust and metal particles are spread and are inhaled by workers because they do not use mask for nose and mouth.

Various new forms of firing techniques are in practice. These include up-draft kiln,

down draft kiln, roller kiln, tunnel kiln, etc. Various fuels like furnace oil, diesel,

kerosene, gas, etc. However it is felt that shuttle kiln (a combination of up-draught

and or down-draught kiln) along with appropriate kiln furniture is an appropriate

solution to various problems of potters being faced at present.

Agenda No. 30.19: Soft Interventions in Fireworks Cluster of Baruipur

1. Brief information of Cluster

Name of the

Cluster

Baruipur Fireworks Cluster

Location The cluster comprises of Champahati, Haral, Chinagram, Naridana etc under

Baruipur Development Block of South 24 Paraganas District, West Bengal

Products 1) Light Based products, like- Ground Chakkars, Flower Pots, Spearklers

Search light

etc. (70 percent of the total turnover of the cluster)

2) Sound Based products like- Rockets, Shell, Crackers etc.(30 percent of the

total turnover of the cluster)

Technological details, pollution,

etc.

Most of people artisans are making low cost sound emitting fire-works but due to serious stipulation of Govt. parameters it loses its market and more

than 70% of the supply to the demand of West Bengal is being catered presently by the manufacturer of Shivakashi, Tamilnadu. Though they

gradually shifted from sound emitting crackers to light crackers, but still the

quality and type is not in commensurate with the market demand.

The characteristic of the different raw-materials for Gun Powder is such that

individually these raw materials carry no hazards or risks, but after mixing, it

is inflammable and perilous in nature. As per ‘Explosive Act’, a magazine

house should be built by keeping certain barrier or gap with the other sections

of the unit.

Mechanization of different terminal process is necessary in a modern fireworks cluster.

Pollution is a major issue in the cluster.

Location Parbatipur, Uttar Jhapordah, Daskhin Jhapardah, Makardah-II, Narna, Begri and

proper Domjur Village area in Domjur, Howrah. Area of cluster is around 10 sq

km.

Products Aluminium bangles and earrings of around 75 different colours.

Technological

details, pollution,

etc.

The technology adopted in the cluster is traditional, yielding low returns. Being

an unorganized sector no formal R&D is being done to upgrade the process of

production. The technology used involves usage of machinery like designing machine, anodising machine etc.

There are few units engaged in anodising. These units are highly polluting and do not follow the environmental rules.

The heat treatment process is done in heat treatment chambers that are obsolete and therefore, modern methodology needs to be introduced in the cluster.

Few units that are engaged in colouring. The technology used is the traditional method of using hand held devices for spray painting.

The aesthetic designs, colour combinations that are produced with etched, engraved and electroplated techniques are able to command higher price.

Name of the CDE : Mr. Haripada Das, Mobile no. : 09830282904

Main problems

of cluster • Human Resource: The artisans are not aware of the modern designs that are

currently in demand.

• Raw Materials: All the units purchase raw materials from local market,

where the price is not very competitive. Moreover, there is no testing

lxii

laboratory in this area to test the quality of the raw material procured.

• Marketing: Market linkages are weak and the cluster cater to only local

market. Huge potential exist in tapping new markets both spatially as well

as age and sex wise through various retail outlets.

• Production process: Production process is not scientific. All the

machineries used are age old and the methodology of production adopted is

also traditional. There are separate welding and anodizing units in the

cluster that does not comply with the environmental rules as per guideline

of pollution control board.

• Salary and Wages: Most of the workers are contractual workers and the

wages are low, Rs 800-1000 per week. This leads to migration of workers from the cluster to other states like Hyderabad, Gujarat and Mumbai. Both

education and skill level of the workers are low. They also have limited knowledge on modern design

Agenda No.30.24: Soft Interventions in Shoe making Cluster of Janbazar, Kolkata

1. Brief information of Cluster

Name of the Cluster Shoe making cluster of Janbazar

Location Janbazar, Central Kolkata in West Bengal

Products Close type shoes; formal and sports shoes popularly known as Jackson,

Doctors sam, Darbi shoes. etc.

Technological details, pollution,

etc.

Processes like cutting, stitching, forma setting, lining, sole pasting, polishing etc. all are done under one roof for shoe making. Most of the units are using

basic hand tools like hammer, ‘batali’ etc. Stitching machine is not available with majority of the units. The quality of stitching is also not appreciable.

Modern machines like skiving, roughening, sole press, clicking, pasting, folding, etc. are also not available in the cluster. Use of kerosene stove in lieu

of heat chamber for sole pasting typically delineates the status of technology absorption in the cluster.

Age of cluster This shoe making cluster has evolved over a period of 100 years.

Presence of

association/ NGO,

contact details

There is one association in the cluster called Janbazar Leather Artisans

Industrial Cooperative Society (JLAICS). Name and contact of the president

of this association is as follows.

Name of the CDE : Mr. Munnilal Prasad

Mobile no. : 09748413210

Main problems of

cluster

Technology: The units have adopted old and traditional methods of

production. The penetration of latest technology and machinery is bare minimal. There is no modern machinery employed in this cluster. Only a few,

about 6-7 in numbers, stitching machines and 2 skiving machines are available

in the cluster.

No Direct Market Linkage: The cluster units have no direct linkage with the

market or consumer. They only supply to the middleman or traders operating

in the market. Therefore, understanding of the customer’s requirements and

their changing tastes and preference is not percolated at the manufacturer’s

level.

Demand Pattern: Shoe is a necessary consumer product and the consumption

lxix

is primarily linked to population size. However, the cluster units experience

demand fluctuations due to (i) no direct linkage with the market and

dependency on middleman/traders, (ii) shortage of working capital and (iii)

products emanating from this cluster is mainly targeted towards low-income,

price-sensitive customers and this type of customers are found to postpone

their purchase decision till the festive seasons.

Support Institution / BDS: Though Central Leather Research Institute (CLRI),

Government College of Engineering & Leather Technology (GCELT) is

located within the same city but the cluster has no linkage with these

institutions/colleges. Similarly the expertise available with the Central

Footwear Training Centre (CFTC), Budge Budge is not being utilized by the

cluster members. Moreover, the CFC run by the former Leather Development Corporation of

the Govt. of WB and the marketing outfit called Chrmaja are no longer in existence.

Thus one can argue that that the linkage with support Institutions is limited. Application of Innovative raw material:

Different variety of raw materials and consumables are generally sourced from Agra. A little initiative from units and R&D institutions in Kolkata could help

in developing new varieties of raw materials and consumables locally.

Cluster

Silk Printing Cluster of Serampore

Location 26 km north of Kolkata (Serampore and Baidyabati Municipality area as well as

in some Gram Panchayets like Rajyadharpur and Piarapur

Products Hand printed silk sarees, scarves and stoles

Technological details, pollution,

etc.

Technology of printing is restricted to hand block and hand screen printing.

Prevailing practice to increase production capacity is by increasing the

number of printing tables which needs more space and labour. Methods used

for mixing of colors are also not very scientific. It is always done manually

based on previous experience/word of mouth and using locally made colors

resulting in inconsistency in colors. Repeating same colour is also not

possible. Automatic or semiautomatic screen printing system may be adopted

for increasing production. Demonstration of such technology is essential.

Awareness and training on scientific colour mixing method is required for

consistency in quality. Also there is lack of appropriate usage and sourcing of

vegetable dyes.

Infrastructure: Most of the units do not have water softening and effluent

treatment plant. The units are also operating from home resulting in smoke

pollution. This is scope for common washing.

Pollution: This is a highly polluting cluster.

Name of the

Cluster

Sankrail Zari Embroidery Cluster

Location Units are located in 5-6 gram pachyets of Sankrail - mainly concentrated in 7

villages namely Kandua, Sandhipur, Nabghara, Sulaty, Bhagatipur, Mahisgoat,

Chaturbhujkati under Kundua Gram Panchayat.

Products Zari embroidery work is primarily done mainly on Sari, Salwar Kameez, Lahenga / Ghagra, Punjabi (Kurta), Churidar, Scarves, Rakh etc.

Technological details, pollution,

etc.

The cluster does not use any technology per se. The main tools and implements employed here are; Hadda (Wooden frames of different sizes);Needle; Scissors;

Iron; and Weighing Scale Artisans work 10-12 hours a day during peak season. Problems of working

posture in Hadda leads to occupational hazards like problems with eye-sight, backache, spinal cord etc. Technical assistance might be sought for

modernization of Hadda which can reduce occupational hazards. Some big traders use China made computerized embroidery machines. A blend of

machine and hand embroidery work may be initiated to improve competitiveness of this cluster. This cluster also requires establishment of a

Common Facility Centre (CFC) to facilitate technology up-gradation.

However, design is an aspect, improvement on which can change the fortune of

this cluster. Training on design development, skill development can be

organized.

Pollution: Not a major problem in the cluster.

2. Information about Proposed CFC

Description As per proposal Remarks, if any

a. Justification for CFC

(page no. 24 of Appraisal

report)

• The home furnishing cluster sector in India is presently going through a major

change. Traditional markets are saturated while new markets are offering

opportunities for growth.

• There is evidently great potential

for the home furnishing cluster of Panipat.

Presently, cluster firms experience some

critical constraints. Enterprises operate

with relatively low net profit margins with stagnant sales and the industry confronts a

scenario of rising raw material prices and faces tough competition in the global

market and is not able to match the world standards in terms of designs and quality of

output produced by them.

• In present globalised scenario,

MSME sector also need to be competitive

and face the global market to improve their

productivity and sales. To achieve the

objective, the interventions of Govt. of

India in terms of grant in order to set up

CFC would further give momentum to

industrialization.

• The envisaged project will

complement the rapid growth of the cluster in terms of manpower as well as upgrading

and testing needs.

• It is expected to increase net

earnings of home furnishing manufacturing

firms as a result of the common facility and

related interventions. This is because use of

advance and the complete range of value adding and expensive facilities like backing

machine, CAD centre, printing machine etc. could help lend better aesthetic look,

finish and quality and help increase sale value of the end product.

Name of the agency

for conducting DSR

Agency for DSR needs to be selected as per GFR provision.

Main Problems of

cluster • Rising input costs in terms of coil and “patta” and relatively

stagnant market prices for finished products and services offered

by cluster firms has been affecting profitability of cluster firms.

Optimization of procurement costs as well as technology

upgrading is critical to retain competitive advantage.

• With power available only for a few hours a day and

establishment of the connectivity plans of the HSIIDC some time

away, the option of exploiting alternate energy options including

biomass based energy generation is critical without which

viability of firms may be affected in the longer term perspective.

• The typical small-sized units in the cluster have poor linkages

with Nationalised and other commercial banks affecting their

performance potential. Typically, the assistance secured from

banks has low limits.

• The fact that much of required raw material is sourced through

traders has been affecting the potential performance of cluster

enterprises They are yet to explore joint and bulk purchase of

units from firms like Jindal or Hissar Steel or direct import of

some grades of units as to further optimize procurement costs.

They are therefore often subject to speculative action by traders.

• Despite the needs to upgrade activities in terms of circle cutting

and polishing firms are yet to pursue serious upgrading efforts.

cviii

The reason may be ascribed to resource constraints.

• The enterprises are largely small in size and unable to

individually reap scale economies on some fronts (procurement,

and technology upgrading) as against larger manufactures in

other regions like China.

• There is an acute shortage of manpower in activities like

polishing, also implying need for greater capital intensive

automation in the segment.

i. Whether DS conducted Yes.

j. Main findings of DSR

(page – 10 of DPR) • The investment in plant and machinery by micro

units is relatively very low. Firms are not able to

get in to newer markets because of lack of firm level technology/modern machineries, testing,

training / capacity building facility for newer skills to other market segments.

• No facility available for R & D which is very essential for diversification.

• An inadequate testing facility for raw materials as well for finished products within the cluster is

another hindering factor.

• The productivity of the firms is relatively low due

to their limited infrastructure and technology level.

• Lack of good tool room facility and modernized higher capacity plant for handling bigger value

25

added services to BHEL and others.

• Frequent power interruption is another factor limiting the productivity of the firms.

k. Main Problems of cluster

(page – 32 of DSR) • Lack of good tool room facility for taking up

bigger order by micro units.

• Inadequate testing facilities and calibration

facilities.

• Low productivity due to insufficient

infrastructure and technology level.

• Individual procurement of raw materials

increases overall cost and reduces profit margin.

9 Shortcomings: i. Technical Division raised the issue that machineries Rs. 1.10 crore is of production nature

and [there] seems no requirement [of these machines] for CFC. Apart from this machines

worth Rs.147 lakh need clarification about their utilities in such a cluster engaged in

servicing of automobile industry. As per the MSE-CDP guidelines Hard Intervention

under the programme will consist of creation of tangible “assets” as Common Facility

Centres (CFCs) like common production / processing centre (for balancing / correcting/

improving production line that cannot be undertaken by individual units.

ii. SIDBI appraisal report stipulated a condition that SPV will submit certified copy of EM/documentary proof that atleast 50% units are micro to avail proposed 80% GoI grant.

iii. Title deed of land iv. SIDBI appraisal has stipulated a condition for utilization of 60% capacity of the CFC by

SPV members. v. Working capital for CFC.

10 Proposal for the Steering Committee: Cluster division recommends the proposal for

‘In-principle’ approval so that complete proposal is submitted by the State Government within 6

months, failing which the proposal shall be dropped. Steering Committee may consider the

proposal for setting up of Common Facility Centre (CFC) to accord in-principle approval.

80

Agenda No. 30.78. Proposal for In-Principle approval for setting up of CFC for Textile

Cluster, Rabakavi – Banahatti, Bagalkot, Karnataka

6. Type of units Micro, Small and Medium units

7. Existence of

Association / NGO

Information not available.

8. Recommendation in

the DSR

Diagnostic study has been prepared by IL& FS Limited.

Manufacturing units in cluster are facing constrains in

dyeing process of cotton yarn. The existing dyeing

techniques are highly health hazardous, stressful and time

consuming. Also there are no testing laboratory facilities

available for testing raw materials and colouring properties.

There is also no Effluent Treatment Plant in cluster.

9. Soft Interventions in

the cluster

State Govt. has informed that SPV in cluster would take

care of the soft interventions suggested in DSR.

Kadasiddeshwara Textiles Private Limited’.

11. Employment Direct and indirect employment is about 40,000

12. Turnover / Export Rs 216 crore turnover

13. Implementing Agency Karnataka State Powerloom Development Corporation Ltd.

14. Problems of the cluster (i) The cluster is functioning in an un-organised manner

resulting in higher procurement costs. (ii) Manufacturing process of the yarn dyed cotton sarees

has remained mostly traditional. (iii) Dyeing process is very tedious & time consuming.

(iv) Manpower being the major problem in the cluster, the

output per day has reduced significantly.

(v) The existing yarn dyeing process is not capable to cater

the required standard quality product in the market.

(vi) There are not professional design and product

development centers and testing laboratories.

15. Need for CFC The existing technology used in the cluster for yarn dyeing

is traditional and outdated. The process starts with

bleaching, dyeing and drying which is done manually and

most of the units give it for job work to the dyers.

(ii) The existing dyeing process is not able to cater the

required standard quality product in the market. The shades

are not uniform and varies from batch to batch.

(iii) The existing techniques poses a big threat to the

environment as well as to the health of the workers as they

81

have continuously stand in front of the dyed liquor and dip

the hanks in the dye.

(iv) A laboratory is essential for testing of raw materials and

finished goods according to the industry standards.

(v) An Effluent Treatment Plant is required.

Yes.

The DSR has recommends for soft & hard interventions in the

cluster. It has enough growth potential provided strategic

interventions are made in key problem areas.

Extent of

Competition

The cluster members face competition with Brass & Bell Metal

Cluster, Hajo.

Main Problems of

cluster

� Consumables- Charcoal, the main fuel for the industry is very

costly,

� Machinery, Production & Technology Up gradation- In absence

of mechanization the cluster, the productivity and the quality of the items produced in the cluster is low.

� Networking - Due to poor networking the artisans are not aware of the different developmental schemes which can benefit the

cluster. � Marketing- Even though there is an established cooperative

society in the cluster which has 11 show rooms across the state of Assam, about 50% of the products are sold through

Mahajans or middlemen resulting in exploitation of the artisans.

� Need for Training- In order to make the cluster vibrant and

capable of withstanding the present day competition, there

is an urgent need to improve the quality of

entrepreneurship in the cluster.

� Strengthening of Association- Even though an association of

the artisans by the name Sarthebari Nagar Kahar Silpi Sanstha

is formed at Sarthebari with about 1,600 artisans as members,

the same needs to be strengthened.

� Business Development Services- The cluster is in urgent need

of BDS Provider in the field of technology/quality up

Extent of competition

for cluster

Cluster units face competition from machine made products

manufactured in China and Italy flooding the markets and sidelining

genuine products in terms of price.

Main Problems of

cluster

• The basic problem is of procuring material and selling for which

they have to depend on the traders.

• In the absence of the designing and material testing labs the

artisan-based units are unable to ensure quality product.

• Due to obsolete technology & old machinery used in cluster, the

quality is deteriorating & production is also affected.

• Wastage is high due to absence of technical training to artisans.

• No R&D and testing labs available in the cluster hence products

is loosing its image.

• There should be a separate section to improve marketing and

export training for cluster.

• Lack of knowledge on export documentations and procedure as

well as assistance of the consultant.
