INDUSTRY PROFILE

INDUSTRY OF WATER PURIFIER IN INDIAN MARKET


ONE man's meat is another's poison can well be said in the context of the bottled water controversy. Even as the ripples seem far from receding on whether the pesticide-residue in packaged drinking water is a reason for concern the waterpurifier industry has lost no time in sniffing out an opportunity.

"Water from Waterguard is completely safe from harmful pesticides, bacteria, viruses and is economical too!", says an advertisement from Usha Shriram, Advertising for its Usha Brita Water Purification Systems. And in case you miss the point, the advertisement has in its background copies of media reports on `Pesticides in bottled water. 'Meanwhile, Eureka Forbes, touted to be the leader in the water purification segment, reacted more swiftly to the pesticide-issue and came out with "reassuring" advertisements, within a couple of days after the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) came out with its controversial report. "The Union Health Ministry too had met discuss the subject and according to sources; the inclination was towards aligning with the European Union (EU)norms.

However, the Bureau of Indian Standards reiterated its stand on the issue and said: "That it took into consideration the limits set by the USFDA, the EU, the World Health Organization (WHO), Codex etc. and decided that since bottled water was a value-added product and in keeping the public/consumer interest ,the (BIS) committee unanimously decided to quantify the maximum limits for pesticide residue and made the necessary amendments to the two Indian standards

Eureka Forbes product lines are related to health, hygiene and safety. They are mainly concentrating on water purification systems for different segments.

Efficient and effective management of the Human Capital pool (HCP) has become an increasingly amperative and complex activity to all HR professionals. The HR function consists of tracking innumerable dada points on each employee, from personal histories, data, skills, capabilities, expriences to payroll records.

The major functions of HR involves the following:


A. The payroll module automates the pay process by gathering data on employeetime and attendance, calculating various deductions and taxes, and generating periodic paycheques and employee tax reports. Data is generally fed from thehuman resources and time keeping modules to calculate automatic deposit andmanual cheque writing capabilities. Sophisticated HCM systems can set upaccounts payable transactions from employee deduction or producegarnishment cheque. The payroll module sends accounting information to thegeneral ledger for posting subsequent to a pay cycle. B.
