CHAPTER-1 INTRODUCTION TO BUDGETORY CONTROL

Budgetory Control is a system of planning, budgeting and evaluation that emphasizes the relationship between money budgeted and results expected. Budgetory Control is based on the assumption that presenting performance information alongside budget amounts will improve budget decision-making by focusing funding choices on program results. Budgetory Control shift the focus of attention from detailed items of expensesuch as salaries and travel---to the allocation of allocation of resources based on program goals and measured results. It continues the presented set by other financial management programs initiated since the 1960s such as management by objective (MBO); zero-based budgeting (ZBB) and the planning, programming. And budgeting system (PPBS). Objective (1973) and zero-based budgeting (1977) surfaced in an environment of increasing discretionary spending, while Budgetory Control emerged during a time of declining budgets. To justify current program performance. To legislative staff, performance information can be a valuable government tool to improves

CHAPTER-2 INDUSTRY PROFILE INDUSTRY PROFILE


Overview of Indian IT Industry The Indian IT industry is growing steadily despite the global meltdown in the year 2009. When the whole of the world witnessed the negative growth, Indian IT industry still managed to register a growth of 5.5%. The industry is about to register the historic landmark of US $ 50 billion exports this year, according to NASSCOM President, Som MIttal. The domestic market is also slotted to witness 12% growth, this year. Potential size of Indias offshoring industry is estimated at US $ 120 to 180 billion by 2015. The industry currently employs around 1 million people and provides indirect employment to around 2.5 million people. It is expected to add another 1, 50,000 jobs in the next fiscal according to NASSCOM. Indian IT/ ITes sector is growing substantially with its

The phenomenal success of the Indian IT- ITeS industry can be attributed to the favorable government policies, burgeoning demand conditions, healthy growth of related industries and competitive environment prevalent in the industry. The interplay of these forces has led to putting the industry on the global map. History and Evolution of IT Industry The evolution of IT industry can be studied in 4 phases: Phase I: Prior to 1980 The software industry was literally nonexistent in India until 1960. Software used in the computers till that time, were in built with the systems. Government protected the hardware industry through high tariff barriers and licensing. However, in the West, the need for software development was gradually being felt as the software in built in the system was not sufficient to perform all the operations. The Government of India therefore, realized the potential for earning foreign exchange.

In 1972, the government formulated the Software Export Scheme. This scheme made the provision of hardware imports in exchange of software exports. TCS became the first firm to agree to this condition. The year 1974 marked the beginning of Software exports from India. Phase II: 1980- 1990 Despite the government initiatives, the software exports were not picking up because of two reasons mainly:

as well as the procedure for obtaining the same was very cumbersome.

To counter these, the government formulated a New Computer Policy in 1984, which simplified import procedures and also reduced the import duty on hardware for software developers. In an attempt to make, software industry independent of the hardware industry, the government in 1986, formulated Software Policy which further, liberalized the IT industry. According to this policy, the hardware imports were de-licensed and were also made duty free for the exporters. This along with the world wide crash in the hardware prices reduced the entry barriers substantially. In 1990, government established Software Technology Parks of India. This scheme was formulated to increase the exports of software and services. Phase III: 1990- 2000 This decade made several significant changes in the economy, including trade liberalization, opening up of Indian economy to foreign investment, devaluation of the rupee and relaxation of entry barriers. These changes attracted many foreign entities (MNCs) to our nation. These MNCs in India, introduced Offshore Model for software services, according to which, the companies used to service their clients from India itself. This model further graduated to Global Delivery Model (GDM). Global Delivery Model is a combination of Onsite and Offshore Model. In this model, the Offshore Development Centre is located at various locations across the globe. During this period due to the entry of many players in the Indian market, the competition got intensified. Therefore, the players started investing in research and development to distinguish their services from others. Phase IV: Post 2000

The global problems like the Y2K, the dotcom crash and recession in the US economy, proved to be a boon to Indian IT industry. The Y2K problem demanded the existing softwares to be compatible to the year 2000. Due to the shortage of US based programmers during this period, many mid sized firms were forced to utilize the services of Indian firms. This had placed the Indian IT industry on the global map. Post 2002- 03, the industry had registered a robust growth rate because of increase in the number of clients, large sized contracts and a strong global delivery model.

Industry Segmentation IT industry can be broadly classified into three sectors:

- BPO

Software: IT Software comprising of the (a) Software Products and (b) Engineering and R & D Services, forms the smallest sector of the Indian IT industry. a. Software Products: The market for software products is growing rapidly as the Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) as well as large organizations are utilizing the services of software in simplifying their works. The sector is highly concentrated with the top 10 firms, dominating the market. IT Software comprises of the the i. Infrastructure Software ii. Enterprise Application Software.

Infrastructure Software:The Infrastructure software connects the people and systems across an organization. It helps in efficiently executing the business processes, share information and the manage the various touchpoints with the customers and the suppliers. It can be of the following types:

t systems

-system software

Enterprise Application Software:-

It is a software specifically designed to solve an enterprise problem. The application software performs various business functionalities like accounting, production scheduling, customer information management, etc. The Enterprise application softwares currently available are:

-learning b. Engineering and R & D Services: This sector has recently originated in India. Many players are trying to tap this market by developing their engineering capabilities. IT Services: India is one of the leading provider of IT services. The basic model followed is known as Offshoring wherein Indian firms cater to the specific requirements of its clients by employing efficient project and quality management skills for its execution. This segment comprises of : (a) Project- oriented services: These services are delivered as individual projects. The services are catered according to the needs and wants of the clients, and the expertise of the vendor. These services can be delivered onsite or offshore, or can be a combination of both also. These services include the following services: IT Consulting: The players in this service line advise clients to streamline their business using IT. They help them in devising IT strategy, IT architecture, IT assessment and planning etc. IT consulting in India is still at a very nascent stage. Major companies which are involved in this service are Wipro, TCS, Satyam, Infosys. Systems Integration: This comprises a whole bouquet of services which are very specific to the requirements of the end user. The range of services included are:

o Integration of various systems deployed by the organization- CRM, ERP, SCM etc. o Integration of business processes and logistics

o Configuration of customized software o Database Maintenance o Integration of legacy systems with the new software or hardware CADM: These services include designing, upgrading and maintainance of software to suit the user requirements. These services dominate the project oriented services market. These services are best suited for offshoring, that is why, these services dominate the Indian export basket. Network Consulting and Integration: These services offer planning, construction and designing of data networks. The range of services in this service line includes: o Network architecture design o Network connectivity o Systems Management o Project Management o Network Maintenance etc.

Software Testing: It checks the quality of a software product or service. It is basically a technical investigation to identify and rectify errors to meet specific quality parameters. Software Testing operates in three spheres: o Response Testing: Ensures that parameters from which the responses are elicited from the target audience are operational as well as efficient enough. o Security Testing: Ensures that all the security parameters are risk free

o Load Testing: Ensures that the software can handle the load density so as to reduce the down time.

(b) IT Outsourcing: When an organization contracts another organization for managing, deploying and maintaning its IT architecture or system, it is called as IT Outsourcing. It includes: deploying, maintaining, and upgrading a firms IT systems. vices offered in this segment varies depending on the requirements of the client. The services offered in IS Outsourcing can be: o Desktop Management

o Help Desk Support o Management of Operation systems o Management of Applications systems o Management of Anti Virus systems o Back up equipment service etc. (c) Training and Support: It includes three segments: software on the clients systems. yment and Support: It involves deploying specific hardware devices on the clients systems.

organization Information Technology systems. It is imparted to provide organization specific skills.

IT- enabled Services: It consists of those services which are delivered using software as a means of production and Internet as a means of transmission. According to AT Kearney, India is considered to be the most preferred destination for companies which are looking for off shoring their IT and backoffice functions. The factors favoring the growth of this sector in India are:

Present Industry Structure The Indian IT industry comprises of well established billion dollor firms as well as start ups or the emerging players. The industry can be described as fragmented yet concentrated. In terms of the expanse of presence of the small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and their offerings, they can be termed as Fragmented. But, on the other hand, when the dominance of the leading players are taken into consideration, because of their earnings as well as their offerings, the industry can be reffered to as Concentrated. The industry can be categorized into:

Offshore Global Services Provider

Tier II Players: These players have their revenues greater than US $ 100 billion. The number of players in this category is also low (10- 12), but they account for 25 per cent of IT services and 4- 5 per cent of BPO exports. Due to limited number of clients, service lines and verticals, these players have registered a lower growth rate than the Tier I players. Offshore Global Service Providers: This category has around 30- 40 players who have registered their sales revenue of US $ 10- 500 billion. These players are recording inorganic growth through acquisitions in low cost destinations including India. But, due to complex local market conditions, they are facing challenges in integrating Indian operations. Pure Play BPO providers: The number of players in this category have hovered around 40- 50. They account for around 20 per cent of BPO exports. These players are facing serious challenges in terms of increasing customer expectations in terms of quality and delivery of service. Captive BPO Units: There are about 150 players in this category. They account for 50 per cent of BPO exports. They are also increasing their presence in Tier II cities, primarily for cost and resource considerations. Emerging Players: The number of players in this category is over 3000. They account for about 10- 15 per cent of IT services exports and 5 per cent of BPO. These players are facing severe challenges as they have limited access to markets and the lack delivery scales. Advantage India Technically Skilled Professionals: India has a huge reservoir of technically sound manpower. This has proved to be one of the most critical success factor for Indian IT sector. This growth is also complimented by the demographic profile of India, where over 50 per cent of the population is below 25 years of age. The growing number of world class educational institutions along with the policy for educational loans, have geared the growth of the industry. English speaking population: Because of Indias colonial past, the medium of education in India is primarily English. This has proved to be boon to the industry. India is the second largest nation in the world in terms of English speaking population, first being USA. Robust Telecom Infrastructure: The telecom industry in India is well established. The telecommunications network in India, is the third largest network in the world and the second largest among the emerging nations in Asia. The availability of superior, robust and reliable telecom connectivity has added to the success of the whole industry in India.

Rendering Customized, end to end and Niche Services/ Solutions: Due to the increasing pervasiveness of IT and huge potential for earning foreign exchange, Indian firms have slowly graduated from giving customized solutions to end to end services and also niche solutions/ services. Lower costs of offshore outsourcing: The initial driver for offshoring to India was cost. But, India has proved to deliver quality services at affordable costs. According to AT Kearney, offshoring to India results in saving 25- 60 per cent of the base cost. Established IT hubs in India [Source: STPI, Tramell Crow Meghraj] Figure : Established IT hubs in India 1. Bangalore: -09 were 2085 (5% growth as compared to the year 2007-08). growth of 21% in the year 2008-09.

fiscal 2005-06, the state of Karnataka accounted for 37.6 percent of the total software exports from India and the city of Bangalore alone accounted for about 97 percent of it. Thus around one third of all of Indias software exports are from the city of Bangalore.

2. Hyderabad: registered units by the end of 2008-09 were 1060

3. NCR- Delhi: of 2008-09 were 1938

4. Kolkata -07: 166 (28 added in 2006-07)

7. Chennai -07: 900 (131 added in 2006-07)

Emerging IT hubs in India Slowly and steadily the Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities are also emerging to become IT hubs. The major advantage which these cities provide are

ssionals

Growth of the Industry The Indian IT industry has been growing at a rapid pace by offering a wide range of products and services. This growth can be attributed to the exports of lower end services, but slowly and steadily the Indian IT industry is moving towards rendering higher end services.

The growth of the industry can be studied by observing the growth in all the segments of the industry. There has been a growth in the exports as well as domestic sales. 1. IT Software: This segment represents the smallest segment of the Indian IT industry. It comprises of (a) the Software products and (b) engineering and R& D services. Major Threats to the Industry 1. High Attrition Rate: Staff shortage can prove to be a major bottleneck to the growth of the industry. According to McKinsey & Co., only 25 percent of the technical graduates are competent enough to work in the offshore IT industry in India. In the BPO sector also, only 1015 per cent of the graduates are suitable for employment. Therefore, managing attrition rate is becoming a big task for the IT companies in India.

High attrition rate results in loss of skilled manpower, loss of skill sets etc. Apart from loss in skill sets, cost of recruitment, training and development of the new recruits also becomes a major investment for these companies. 2. Competition from other emerging nations: Chinese IT hubs like Beijing and Shanghai are set to overtake Indian hubs by the year 2011, according to a report by IDC. These cities are competing with India on account of their stable socio- economic environment, excellent infrastructure, low attrition rates and skilled talent pool. 3. There is a need for improvement in the urban infrastructure. According to McKinsey, further growth of the industry has to come from small districts, outside the Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities. 4. Lack of fluency in languages other than English, e.g. French, Spanish, Italian etc. is proving to be a weakness of the Indian IT industry. 5. End of Tax Benefits at STPIs: There is a dissimilarity in the tax regimes at STPIs. This would lead to conversion of these STPIs into SEZ units. 6. Overdependence on US Economy: Almost 70% of the IT industry revenues comes from USA. Therefore, any downscale in the US market, adversely impacts the Indian market too. E.g. recent downsizing and job cuts due to recession in the US market.

7. Rupee Appreciation: As most of the earnings are in foreign currencies, therefore Rupee appreciation becomes an area of concern for the industry. 8. Lack of Product Innovation: India specialises in services but not in products. The nation lacks in product innovation, which can be considered a major area of concern. It will be difficult to maintain competitive advantage if product innovation doesnt occur. 9. Limited Domestic Market: The domestic market is still in the nascent stage in India. This makes the whole industry vulnerable to export market only. The Indian Information Technology industry represents one of the most successful industry showing consistent rapid growth. In a report, Perspective 2020: Transform Business, Transform India, prepared by Mc Kinsey, the export revenues of Indian IT industry will touch US $ 175 billion by the year 2020. The domestic sales revenue will also contribute US $ 50 billion by the year 2020. Therefore, we can say that the industry is shining and will continue to do so as well.

1. FIXED BUDGET:
According to ICMA, London a fixed budget is a budget which is designed to remain unchanged irrespective of the level of activity actually attained It is based on a fixed volume of activity and shows only one volume of output and related cost. It is not adjusted according to the actual level of activity attained. Thus, if it is forecast that the organization will operate at 60% of its capacity. A budget is drawn that reflects the costs at 60% capacity. There is no provision to adjust the budget if the actual operations are at 75% or 50% of capacity. A fixed budget is useful only when the actual level of activity corresponds with the budgeted level of activity. But this, generally does not happen, as such, a fixed budget is not useful for managerial purposes

2. VARIABLE BUDGET:

According to ICMA, LONDAN, a variable budget is a budget which is designed to change in accordance with the level of activity actually attained. Thus, it provides the budgeted costs at any level of activity. Business activities cannot be accurately on account of uncertainties of business environment. It contains several estimates for different assumed circumstances instead of just one estimate, and provides for automatic adjustments with change in the volume of activity.

Budgets set for the upper limit of expenses, which a firm can make for actual expenditure and standards are set for the targets to achieve.

5. Budgets are expected costs to be forecasted for the requirement of material, cash and other resources and standard costs are not to tell the expected cost but rather what the costs should be under specific conditions.

CHAPTER-5 FINDINGS & CONCLUSIONS


The organizational arrangement has not received adequate attention of the management. A separate specialized budget department did not exist for preparation, implementation and review of budget. Budgets are prepared on the basis of past performance and experiences. There is no co-ordination between the departments while preparing budget. Only demand, supply and price are in influenced for preparation of the budget. External factors affecting the Budgetory Control system in SAIRSINFO are: Limited and exclusive customer base Delay in technology transfer from collaborators. Involvement of many external agencies right from the technology transfer to the final product acceptance

CHAPTER-6 SUGGESTIONS
a) Financial feed back information vis--vis budget motivation is largely confined to higher-level management. It should be communicated to middle line level for better control and morale of the people. b) Re-planning is to take place at the time of half-yearly review on the basis of experience which the corporation had in the first six-months. c) A complete copy of the budget may be supplied to the budgeters well in advance and any change in the budget, after finalization due to inevitable reasons may be made only after discussion with the concerned sub-ordinates. d) First line managers should realize that technical performance standards and budgets are the guide and yardsticks for the achievement of their target. e) The study reveled that most of the employees are ignorant of even their role in budget development process of their organization. This may lead to mistrust and hostility resulting in low productivity. Hence the budget officer should keep professional contacts with people especially from purchase. Sales and personal and keep them informed about the financial and technical standards. f) It would be better to have frequent consultations and clarification regarding technical figures with line manager so that they have the same perspective and understanding .
