progressively Indianised the name of the company was changed from Imperial Tobacco
Company of India Ltd to India Tobacco Company Ltd in the year 1970 and then to I.T.C.

changes in the life of the company. In the year 1925 the company set up Packaging &
Printing business as a strategic backward integration for ITC's Cigarettes business. It is
today India's most sophisticated packaging house. IN the year 1975 the company launched
its Hotels business with the acquisition of a hotel in Chennai which was rechristened 'ITC-
Welcomgroup Hotel Chola'. In the year 1979 they entered the Paperboards business by

in India. In the year 1985 the company set up Surya Tobacco Co. in Nepal as an Indo-
Nepal
and British joint venture. In the year 1990 the company acquired Tribeni Tissues Ltd a

1.3 LIMITATIONS:
The Indian FMCG sector is the fourth largest sector in the economy. FMCG is also
known as consumer-packaged goods they are low value relatively non-durable
household goods such as packaged beverages and other consumables sell quite fast
perspective low margins.
The prices of FMCG are relatively low and profit earned such sales are in more
volume basis. FMCG Market in India is highly competitive. In FMCG companies
availability of raw materials, low level of labor cost in the value chain system.
The launch of new products and increasing rural area market, a good established
distribution network, competition between the organized sector and un-organized
sector.
In the Indian FMCG sector major important role is contributing to the country GDP.
Recently the industry came up with the operations, supply chain production, general
management, penetration price and per capita level consuming product categories like
biscuit, skin care, cosmetics. The FMCG industry is highly competitive and along
with less operating cost to the distribution network.
By distribution channel:
In 2018, in terms of region, North America is expected to remain dominant and grow
at a steady pace in the FMCG market. However, Asia-Pacific is expected to grow at
the highest CAGR of 8.0% owing to changes in lifestyles, which is led by
globalization and increase in working population. The rise in the affluent population
and increased penetration of internet and social media has increased the consumption
of processed and packaged food, which makes way for the growth of the FMCG
market in the region. Furthermore, innovations in current products and introduction of
new products with attractive pricing is expected to provide growth opportunities for
the FMCG market in future.
The leading players in the FMCG market focus on providing customized solution to
consumers as their key strategies to gain a significant share in the market. Strategies
such as product launch and acquisition have also helped the key players to gain a
significant share in the global FMCG market. The key players profiled in the report
include Procter And Gamble, Unilever Group, The Coca Cola Company, PepsiCo Co.
Inc, Kimberly-Clark Corporation, Patanjali Ayurveda Ltd., Dr Pepper Snapple Group,
Inc., Revlon, Inc, Johnson & Johnson, and Nestle.
The main challenges companies must face up to in the future if they wish to grow
sustainably and profitably:
Growth of e-commerce:
By 2020, e-commerce revenues are expected to be more than USD 4 trillion. More
digitally savvy consumers will spend more time online. Messaging apps will also be
increasingly used within the context of sales and marketing.
E-commerce is growing four-times faster than offline sales, with global online sales
predicted to double within the next five years. By 2022, FMCG e-commerce is
forecast to make up around ten to twelve percent of global FMCG sales, creating a
USD 400 billion opportunity.
With more consumers leading an on-the-go lifestyle, the demand for convenience is a
big trend in 2019. A greater appetite for convenience food and drinks that are ready-
to- consume and a desire for restaurant-quality foods at home will drive growth in this
sector.
The existing trend for ‘clean’ foods continues, inspired by greater awareness, interest
and understanding of wellbeing. There will be a greater emphasis on health and
wellness products, many of which combine research on nutrition and longevity with
traditional, ancient therapies.
Millennial consumers are seeking out new brands that they perceive as innovative
product lines and have their own distinct FMCG demands. They prefer to research
products by sharing information with their peers online and are much more
influenced by peers than a mass-brand channel approach.
Sustainability is set to take a more central role within FMCG in 2019 and beyond.
Consumers are becoming more aware and interested in how sustainability relates to
products across the whole supply chain, from the sourcing of ingredients to the
packaging.
Demand driven by population density:
The world is growing up, and whilst the millennials are exerting their influence, the
population landscape is being dominated by post-retirement FMCG shoppers. This is
particularly evident in Asia, where e.g. Japan tops the tables with predictions that the
over-60s will account for 37.3 percent of the population by 2030. Other rapidly aging
populations include Vietnam, Thailand and Sri Lanka.
ITC is the country's leading FMCG marketer, the clear market leader in the Indian
Paperboard and Packaging industry, a globally acknowledged pioneer in farmer
empowerment through its wide-reaching Agri Business, a pre-eminent hotel chain in
India that is a trailblazer in 'Responsible Luxury'. ITC's wholly-owned subsidiary,
ITC Infotech, is a specialized global digital solutions provider.
Over the last decade, ITC's new Consumer Goods Businesses have established a
vibrant portfolio of 25 world- class Indian brands that create and retain value in
India. ITC's world class FMCG brands including Aashirvaad, Sunfeast, Yippee!,
Bingo!, B Natural, ITC Master Chef, Fabelle, Sun bean, Fiama, Engage, Vivel,
Savlon, Classmate, Paperkraft, Mangaldeep, Aim and others have garnered
encouraging consumer franchise within a short span of time. While several of these
brands are market leaders in their segments, others are making appreciable progress.

A Modest Beginning
The Company's beginnings were humble. A leased office on Radha Bazar Lane, Kolkata,
was the centre of the Company's existence. The Company celebrated its 16th birthday on
August 24, 1926, by purchasing the plot of land situated at 37, Chowringhee, (now renamed
J.L. Nehru Road) Kolkata, for the sum of Rs 310,000. This decision of the Company was
historic in more ways than one. It was to mark the beginning of a long and eventful journey
into India's future. The Company's headquarter building, 'Virginia House', which came up
on that plot of land two years later, would go on to become one of Kolkata's most venerated
landmarks.
Though the first six decades of the Company's existence were primarily devoted to the
growth and consolidation of the Cigarettes and Leaf Tobacco businesses, ITC's Packaging
& Printing Business was set up in 1925 as a strategic backward integration for ITC's
Cigarettes business. It is today India's most sophisticated packaging house.
The Seventies witnessed the beginnings of a corporate transformation that would usher in
momentous changes in the life of the Company. In 1975, the Company launched its Hotels
business with the acquisition of a hotel in Chennai which was rechristened 'ITC-
Welcomgroup Hotel Chola' (now renamed My Fortune, Chennai). The objective of ITC's
entry into the hotels business was rooted in the concept of creating value for the nation. ITC
chose the Hotels business for its potential to earn high levels of foreign exchange, create
tourism infrastructure and generate large scale direct and indirect employment. Since then
ITC's Hotels business has grown to occupy a position of leadership, with over 100 owned
and managed properties spread across India under four brands namely, ITC Hotels - Luxury
Collection, WelcomHotels, Fortune Hotels and WelcomHeritage.
ITC Hotels recently took its first step toward international expansion with an upcoming
super premium luxury hotel in Colombo, Sri Lanka. In addition, ITC Hotels also recently
tied up with RP Group Hotels & Resorts to manage 5 hotels in Dubai and India under ITC
Hotels' 5- star 'WelcomHotel' brand and the mid-market to upscale 'Fortune' brand.
In 1985, ITC set up Surya Tobacco Co. in Nepal as an Indo-Nepal and British joint venture.
In August 2002, Surya Tobacco became a subsidiary of ITC Limited and its name was
changed to Surya Nepal Private Limited (Surya Nepal). In 2004, the company diversified
into manufacturing and exports of garments.
In 1990, ITC acquired Tribeni Tissues Limited, a Specialty paper manufacturing company
and a major supplier of tissue paper to the cigarette industry. The merged entity was named
the Tribeni Tissues Division (TTD). To harness strategic and operational synergies, TTD
was merged with the Bhadrachalam Paperboards Division to form the Paperboards &
Specialty Papers Division in November 2002.
Also in 1990, leveraging its Agri-sourcing competency, ITC set up the Agri Business
Division for export of Agri-commodities. The Division is today one of India's largest
exporters. ITC's unique and now widely acknowledged e-Choupal initiative began in 2000
with soya farmers in Madhya Pradesh. Now it extends to 10 states covering over 4 million
farmers. Also, through the 'Choupal Pradarshan Khet' initiative, the agri services vertical
has been focusing
on improving productivity of crops while deepening the relationship with the farming
community.
ITC launched line of premium range of notebooks under brand Paperkraft in 2002. To
augment its offering and to reach a wider student population, the Classmate range of
notebooks was launched in 2003. Classmate over the years has grown to become India's
largest notebook brand and has also increased its portfolio to occupy a greater share of the
school bag. Years 2007- 2009 saw the launch of Practical Books, Drawing Books,
Geometry Boxes, Pens and Pencils under the 'Classmate' brand. 'Paperkraft' offers a diverse
portfolio in the premium executive stationery and office consumables segment.
ITC also entered the Lifestyle Retailing business with the Wills Sport range of international
quality relaxed wear for men and women in 2000. In 2006, Wills Lifestyle became title
partner of the country's most premier fashion event - Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week -
that has gained recognition from buyers and retailers as the single largest B-2-B platform
for the Fashion Design industry. To mark the occasion, ITC launched a special 'Wills
Signature', taking the event forward to consumers.
In 2000, ITC spun off its information technology business into a wholly owned subsidiary,
ITC Infotech India Limited, to more aggressively pursue emerging opportunities in this
area. Today ITC Infotech is one of India's fastest growing global IT and IT-enabled services
companies and has established itself as a key player in offshore outsourcing, providing

numerous distinctive brands, with an enviable distribution reach, a rapidly growing market
share and a solid market standing.

Porter's Five Force Model
Consumer faces low buying power because of fragmented and have little influence
on product price. Comparing the buyer power retailers it is very high since they are
needed to negotiate the price with their competitors.
Supplier power
ITC Consumer product faces few quantity of supplier power simply due to the cost
they effected when switching supplier. Suppliers are doing high volume of business
with these companies are also positive value totheir customers.
The amount of capital investment required to enter in certain house hold consumer
products needs more, so the threat of new entries may results fairly low.
Threat of substitutes
Within the business sector, brand name proceeds to get success with building a
competitive advantage, but even though the pricing power of the products can be
eroded.
CHAPTER 4
SWOT ANALYSIS
Strengths
ITC’s cigarette sector contributes a significant proportion of its sales to the FMCG.
Increasing Revenue of ITC Limited in the year by year is its main strength. In the
year 2019, its revenue was ₹52,035 crore.
Operating Income is 2.7 Billion US Dollars in 2019.
Net Income is Rs. 12824 Crores in 2019.
Number of Employees 27279
Portfolio of Companies: under its name, ITC has 6 large and diverse businesses
that boost its total revenue and allow ITC to innovate and pursue other business
opportunities.
Powerful brand: ITC is a large brand house with most of its products leading the
segments in which it works.
ITC owns some of the most famous cigarette brands, such as the Gold Flake and
Classic. It also owns Sunfeast, one of India’s highest-selling biscuits. Similarly,
the Aashirvaad Chaki Fresh Ata, the Yippee! , Engage, John Players, and Bingo
are all among the industry leaders in their respective groups.
ITC’s hotel and property businesses are also doing well. With a portfolio like this,
ITC has become one of India’s most dominant conglomerates and is revered all over
the world.
Weaknesses
High Proportion of Tobacco Product Revenues: ITC has made continuous efforts
to separate the FMCG sector from over-dependence on tobacco products and has
been successful in doing so to some degree. Nonetheless, tobacco products remain
the biggest source of revenue contributing more than 60 percent to FMCG’s
overall revenue.
Tobacco Products Association has an impact on the brand: ITC has made a great
deal of effort to enhance its corporate image, but the fact that ITC has many
tobacco products in its portfolio has an impact on its corporate image. The
increase in the Tobacco Tax has an effect on revenue: due to the rise in the tax on
tobacco products, rates and, subsequently, profits are affected.
ITC is still dependent on its tobacco sales, and people have cheaper alternatives
and other brands.
The hotel industry has not been able to build an enormous market share.
Opportunities
Threats
EXPERIENCE
I had collected all details about their business from the Google and company website of the “ITC”,
Articles , Magazines , websites helped by giving guidance to know about the profile of the company
new experience with online internship.
During the organization study we felt fear about whether we complete our project work or not? But
after. When we taken guidance from faculties we are able to complete my project work successfully.
We learnt about the company profile, and all other their competitors around them.
At lastly, we are remembering the IT Ccompany who had informed some suggestion and give me
some information about the company and their work.
I also learnt that participative leadership style motivates each and every employee to great extent
