CHAPTER – I
INTRODUCTION
1.1. INTRODUCTION
A project means a task involving research. The project involves something to be
analyzed or a problem to be solved. The heart of doing any project lies in solving open-ended
problems that require research, creativity and risk- taking. Team competition hands on
problem solving and relevance to real world application are an overwhelming student
motivator. This approach also allows the researcher to integrate research activities into the
curriculum.
Given the multidisciplinary nature of the projects, one will be able to gain the
Knowledge, skills, experience highly sought by global corporations.
A part from the above benefits, it helps the researcher to
Build and improve communication skills.
Obtain leadership experience.
Gain problem – solving skills.
Meet people from a variety of backgrounds.
Learn to work effectively in a team environment.
Gain practical experience.
Bridging theory & practice:
As I stated in the above paragraph theory and practice are two different things and the
gaps between these two has to be bridged projects are carried out as a part of MBA
curriculum and we are able to put theories into practice while doing the project and this helps
in bridging the gap between theory and practice.

A Problem-solving tool:
A project server various functions, it helps in analyzing opportunities and exploiting
them, changes which can be implemented and also at times provides solutions to problem.
When ever we start a project we highlight a statement of problem and then we start working
on it meticulously and narrow down to the cause and suggest remedies which will ultimately
eliminate those problems. There by projects also serves as a problem-solving tool.
Over all organization Study:
A project also helps an MBA student to make over all organization study. During the
project period the student interacts with various people from different levels, within the
organization and also observes the functioning of the organization and thus it serves a dual
purpose that is enabling the student to gain first hand experience and a wealth of knowledge
in observing an organization function in reality
1.2. ABOUT THE TOPIC
The senior Human resource Team held discussion with the management team for
the selection of the topic on which to do the project. The management asked the Human
resource Faculties to “A STUDY ON PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL SYSTEM IN
T.V.SUNDARAM IYENGAR & SONS Ltd., MADURAI”
Introduction
The process of HRD helps the employees to acquire and /or develop technical,
managerial and behavioral knowledge, skills and abilities and moulds the values, beliefs and
attitudes necessary to perform present and future roles. The process of performance appraisal
helps the employee and the management to know the level of employee’s performance
compared to the standard/pre - determine level.
Performance appraisal is essential to understand and improve the employee’s
performance through HRD. In fact, performance appraisal is the basis for HRD. It was viewed
that performance appraisal was useful to decide upon employee promotion/transfer, salary
determination and the like. But the recent developments in human resources management
2
indicate that performance appraisal is the basis for employee development. Performance
appraisal indicates the level of desired performance level, level of actual performance and the
gap between these two. This gap should be bridged through human resources development
techniques like training, executive development etc. now we shall discuss this chapter in the
following lines.

individual’s job. It indicates how well an individual is fulfilling the job demands. Often
the term is confused with effort, but performance is always measured in terms of results
and not efforts. Some of the important features of performance appraisal may be captured
this:
Performance appraisal is the systematic description of an employee’s job-relevant
strengths and weaknesses.
The basic purpose is to find out how well the employee is performing the job and
establish a plan of improvement.
Appraisals are arranged periodically according to definite plan.
Performance appraisal is not job evaluation. It refers to how well someone is doing
the assigned job. Job evaluation determines how much a job is worth to the
organization and, therefore what range of pay should be assigned to the job.
Performance appraisal is a continuous processes every large scale organization.

COMPANY PROFILE
2.1. HISTORY OF FOUNDER
In the annuals of Indian History, the 1880’s is a landmark. This century saw the
birth of great souls and nation builders such as M.K.Gandhi, Tilak and Sri Aurobindo.
They were instrument in awakening the spirit of political freedom. The same century saw
the birth of great industrialists like JRD Tata, Kirloskar and in South, T.V. Sundaram
Iyengar. They were responsible for awakening the spirit of industrial and economic
growth of the country.
T.V.Sundaram Iyengar was born on 22nd March 1877 in Thrissur, Kerala. He was
the son of Sri A Vengarausamy Iyengar who was an advocate by profession having his
practice in Thrissur (Kerala) TVS’s parents belonged to Tirunelveli. He had his schooling
at Trichur and an early marriage at the age of eleven.
T.V.S always had a passion and a liking for industry, trade and commerce.
Initially, he was working for two to three private and government organizations but found
the jobs uninteresting. Later, he dediced to do a trading business with the little capital he
had. With the profit he earned out of this business, he wanted to venture into a new
business. This new venture was Bus Services. The first route was from Madurai to
Pudukottai. Later, he started procuring and distributing auto
parts.
The T.V.S trading stems from the personal philosophy of the group’s founder Sri
T.V.Sundaram Iyengar. A man of tremendous vision. he had the foresight to recognize
that progress in the transport industry was vital to the growth of the foundation of
customer satisfaction. Indeed, it is this dedication to service that has given T.V.S the
impetus to grow from the single unit of 1911 to the multi company enterprise, it is today.
6
He had the support of his better-half Mrs. Lakshmiammal who was known for her
simplification and kind heart. It was 31 years of long dedicated and dynamic hard word
that made the man a legend and the name still lives in many hearts.
o 1911 – The organization has its origin in road transport when Sri
T.V.Sundaram Iyengar started the first ever rural bus service between Madurai
and Pudukottai, in the state of Tamil Nadu. This transport company grew to be
the largest of its kind in India.
o 1919 – T.V.Sundaram Iyengar started an automobile spare parts and service
unit in Madurai which diversified into a variety of trading and service lines. He
realized as early as in 1920 the importance of marketing spare parts, and
organized their distribution through every available channel. This firmly
established the domination of the company in the auto industry.
o 1929 – General Motors appointed T.V.S as their authorized agents which was a
major break through and an evolution of a new era. Also his trip to the US in
the year 1947 is worth mentioning. During his trip, he made a practical study of
the agriculture activities and implemented the same in his home town.
o 1946 – T.V.S merged transport companies acquired earlier to form Southern
Roadways, a road transport and parcel service company.
2.2. THE FORMATION
In 1911 organisation started its activities as road transport and one can with proud
say that Sri. T.V.Sundaram Iyengar was the first person to run rural bus service. This
transport grows into a big network. In 1919 TVS started an automobile spare parts and
service unit in Madurai. This diversified the religious city into a variety of trading and
service activity center. In 1929 General motors was able to recognize the greatness of
TVS group and appoint them as authorized agents. This was a major break through in the
evolution of automobile industry. Mr. Sundram Iyengar’s trip to U.S needs special
mention; In this trip he made practical studies on agricultural activities and implemented
them in hometown. This shows that he is not a mere mechanical minded person but also
lover of nature.

period TVS merged transport companies and formed Southern Road Ways, which

5.3. CONCLUSION
Performance appraisal is essential to understand and improve the employee’s
performance through HRD. In fact, performance appraisal is the basis for HRD. It was viewed
that performance appraisal was useful to decide upon employee promotion/transfer, salary
determination and the like. But the recent developments in human resources management
indicate that performance appraisal is the basis for employee development. Performance
appraisal indicates the level of desired performance level, level of actual performance and the
gap between these two. This gap should be bridged through human resources development
techniques like training, executive development etc. now we shall discuss this chapter in the
following lines.
