PERFACE
Summer training is essential for the fulfillment of MBA curriculum. The
practical knowledge is far different from the bookish knowledge that a student
3
achieves in an institution. Theoretical knowledge just provides the base and it’s
not sufficient to produce a good manager that’s why the practical knowledge is
needed.
I have done my project report on the “Basics of Accountant and GST ” .
It is a splendid experience to work Offline with the professionals and get to
know a lot of things. The successful completion of this project was a unique
experience for me and achieved a great knowledge about Accounts and GST .
Therefore, the research product is an essential requirement for the student of
MBA. This research project helps the student to utilize their skill properly. So,
in accordance with the requirement of the MBA .I prepared this report.

1.3. S.W.O.T ANALYSIS

(a) Strengths of CA

10
• Highly skilled workforce through successful training and
learning programs. CA, Inc. is investing huge resources in
training and development of its employees resulting in a
workforce that is not only highly skilled but also motivated to
achieve more.
• Strong distribution network – Over the years CA, Inc. has built
a reliable distribution network that can reach majority of its
potential market.
• Highly successful at Go To Market strategies for its products
• Strong Free Cash Flow – CA, Inc. has strong free cash flows that
provide resources in the hand of the company to expand into
new projects.
• Reliable suppliers – It has a strong base of reliable supplier of
raw material thus enabling the company to overcome any
supply chain bottlenecks.

(b) Weakness of CA
• High attrition rate in work force – compare to other
organizations in the industry CA, Inc. Has a higher attrition rate
and have to spend a lot more compare to its competitors on
training and development of its employees.
• Limited success outside core business – Even though CA, Inc. is
one of the leading organizations in its industry it has faced
challenges in moving to other product segments with its
present culture.
• Need more investment in new technologies. Given the scale of
expansion and different geographies the company is planning
to expand into, CA, Inc. needs to put more money in technology
to integrate the processes across the board. Right now, the

11
investment in technologies is not at par with the vision of the
company.
• The profitability ratio and Net Contribution % of CA, Inc. are
below the industry average.

(c) Opportunities for CA


• Government green drive also opens an opportunity for
procurement of CA, Inc. products by the state as well as federal
government contractors.
• Economic uptick and increase in customer spending, after years
of recession and slow growth rate in the industry, is an
opportunity for CA, Inc. to capture new customers and increase
its market share.
• Organization’s core competencies can be a success in similar
other products field. A comparative example could be - GE
healthcare research helped it in developing better Oil drilling
machines.
• Decreasing cost of transportation because of lower shipping
prices can also bring down the cost of CA, Inc.’s products thus
providing an opportunity to the company - either to boost its
profitability or pass on the benefits to the customers to gain
market share.

(d) Threats CA
• Increasing trend toward isolationism in the American economy
can lead to similar reaction from other government thus
negatively impacting the international sales.
• New environment regulations under Paris agreement (2016)
could be a threat to certain existing product categories.

12
• Rising raw material can pose a threat to the CA, Inc.
profitability.
• Imitation of the counterfeit and low-quality product is also a
threat to CA, Inc.’s product especially in the emerging markets
and low-income markets.
• The company can face lawsuits in various markets given -
different laws and continuous fluctuations regarding product
standards in those markets.

disruptor could be a serious threat to the industry in medium to
long term future.

2.5 Overview of GST

GST is known as the goods and services tax. It is an indirect tax which
has replaced many indirect taxes in India such as the excise duty,
VAT, services tax, etc. The goods and service tax act were passed in
the parliament on 29th march 2017 and came into effect on 1st July
2017.
25
Simple basics of GST
▫ GST is a tax on both Goods and Services except for some of the
goods like alcohol for human consumption.
▫ GST is levied at the time of supply.
▫ GST will make sure input credit is available for taxes paid on all
purchases & input services.
▫ Input credit shall only be allowed when your supplier has
deposited the GST, he collected from you.

governance for all.

Rs 14.6 lakh crore, of which almost 34 per cent comprises
indirect taxes, with Rs 2.8 lakh crore coming from excise and Rs
