Economic Overview of the Netherland The Dutch economy is the fifth-largest economy in the euro-zone and is noted for its stable industrial relations, moderate unemployment and inflation, a sizable trade surplus, and an important role as a European transportation hub. Industrial activity is predominantly in food processing, chemicals, petroleum refining, and electrical machinery. A highly mechanized agricultural sector employs only 2% of the labor force but provides large surpluses for the foodprocessing industry and for exports. The Netherlands, along with 11 of its EU partners, began circulating the euro currency on 1 January 2002. After 26 years of uninterrupted economic growth, the Dutch economy - highly dependent on an international financial sector and international trade - contracted by 3.5% in 2009 as a result of the global financial crisis. The Dutch financial sector suffered, due in part to the high exposure of some Dutch banks to U.S. mortgage-backed securities. In 2008, the government nationalized two banks and injected billions of dollars of capital into other financial institutions, to prevent further deterioration of a crucial sector. The government also sought to boost the domestic economy by accelerating infrastructure programs, offering corporate tax breaks for employers to retain workers, and expanding export credit facilities. The stimulus programs and bank bailouts, however, resulted in a government budget deficit of 5.3% of GDP in 2010 that contrasted sharply with a surplus of 0.7% in 2008. The government of Prime Minister Mark RUTTE began implementing fiscal consolidation measures in early 2011, mainly reductions in expenditures, which resulted in an improved budget deficit of 3.8% of GDP. The following table may clearly define the all over economic overview of the Netherland country for the year 2011. It also contains the comparison with the year 2009 and 2010.

OVERVIEW OF THE INDUSTRY  In today’s time, the Brass products are produced almost all over the world. However, this was not the case in the past. The Brass Part industry was not developed at all the places of the world, because it requires a particular type of temperature and humidity to mold the raw material into a particular shape.  The raw materials required to carry on the production were also not available very easily in the past. But with the passage of time, with the development of transportation facilities and technologies all such hurdles had been removed and the Brass Part industry started developed at almost all over the country.  Indian foundry industry is the sixth largest industry in the world after: USA, China, Japan, Russia and Germany. Indian foundry industry is the second largest player after China in terms of Units & Number of People Employed.  There are 7000 recognized foundry units including small, medium & large scale sectors in all over the country and approx. 80% foundry units are in the small scale. Indian foundry industry has a sizable export turnover of goods valued at Rs.3400 Cr. per year. Currently, the industry is growing at 8% a year, & is determined to increase this over to 20% by 2010.  The latest world census of casting by modern casting – USA, India produces an estimated 6mt of various grades of casting as per International standards, proving that the foundations of Indian foundry are strong enough to cater domestic demands & exports.

BRASS INDUSTRY IN JAMNAGARCITY  Jamnagar is known as reputed brass parts manufacturing center for more than half a century. Another major landmark in the history of brass part industry in Jamnagar was the creation of first state sponsored industrial estate in Jamnagar viz., GIDC Phase-I in the year 1969.  In 1983 the Government of Gujarat through its Gujarat industrial development corporation, launched the creation of GIDC Phase-II. These public and private industrial estates gave a real boost to the brass parts industry in Jamnagar.  Basic infrastructure like electricity, road, and water was easily available in these industrial estates. This provided tremendous impetus for the clustering phenomena and within a span of three years the total number of brass parts manufacturing enterprises increased to 1500 by 1980.  The number grew to 3000 units in 1988 and 4500 in 1998. Establishment of ports in Bedi and Rosi Bandar and the strategic location of Jamnagar (the Arabian Sea) also contributed for the growth of the sector.  Today, with the help of the government for the development of brass part industry in Jamnagar, numbers of brass items are produced in numbers of factories. Government has provided various subsidies to brass part industry for the EOUs (Export Oriented Units) to boost the export of the brass items.

FACTORS BEHIND THE DEVELOPMENT OF BRASS INDUSTRY  Availability of Raw Material: Raw materials used in brass parts are brass honey, dross of brass, pales in the form of strips and other scrap. This raw material became easily available in and around Jamnagar at a reasonable price. As the industry grew the process of procuring raw material, from within the country and abroad became more and more smooth. Other inputs like cock, molasses and machines were also available locally.  Skilled Manpower and Customized Machines: Skilled technicians and workers were also easily available in this cluster. Because of agricultural development (mainly due to scarcity of water) and non-availability of alternative occupation, people started learning the skills of manufacturing brass parts and operating the machines. The cost of employing a labour was also minimal. Moreover, second-hand& customized machines were available at reasonable price.  The Soil Base: Though there is no apparent technical reason to support their claim, the entrepreneurs at Jamnagar are of the opinion that the soil (“Chiknimitti”) composition also helped in manufacturing quality brass castings. A composition of oil and sand is used in the mould to a particular give shape and size to the brass parts. The more is the binding property of soil and sand, the better is the quality of casting manufactured. The availability of water also ushered the growth of the cluster.

OVERVIEW OF INDUSTRIES TRADE & COMMERCE  The spearheads of Dutch trade are the automobile and textile industries (the latter employing 18% of the workforce), followed by the food industry (raw and processed products), machinery and equipment and electronic equipment, steel and chemical sectors respectively.  The European Union is by far Netherland's leading customer (56.4% of Dutch exports), followed by the United States, China and Iraq.  Dutch exports have relatively low added value. Similarly, Dutch exports are still not very present on markets with high development potential (China or Eastern Europe) and suffer from being compared to German ones.

CHIEF EXPORTS: Clothing, foodstuffs, textiles, metal manufactures.

CHIEF IMPORTS: Machinery, semi-finished goods, chemicals, transport equipment, fuels.

TRADE  TEXTILES AND CLOTHING It is one of the most important sectors in the Dutch economy, accounting for 10 percent of GDP, 20 percent of the labor force, and 40 percent of total manufacturing output.

This sector is the largest in the country and it is the largest supplier of exports as well. Today, Netherland is extremely competitive in international markets.

The fact that Netherland is a major grower of cotton is a great advantage for the textile and clothing sector.

The easy availability of the raw materials, Dutch spinning and weaving industries have developed significantly, creating integrated and diversified production in all sub-sectors of the textile industry.

The clothing industry has shown stable growth over the years and is today one of the most important manufacturing sectors.

The clothing manufacturers are spread through the west and south of the country, with the majority based in Istanbul.

 IRON AND STEEL The foundations of the iron and steel industry were laid in the late 1930s with the establishment of the first integrated steel mill in 1939.

At present, there are 3 integrated steel mills:  The recently privatized KDCI (Karabuk, Black Sea region) plant  The 2 public-sector plants, Erdemir (Eregli, Black Sea region)  Isdemir (Iskenderun, East Mediterranean region).

The steel industry is the second most important export sector in the country, after textiles and clothing.

 CHEMICALS

Netherland has been manufacturing chemicals since the very early years of the republic.

Currently, it is one of the country's largest industries in terms of value, and is the fourth major export sector. The major chemical exports are plastic raw materials and plastic products, followed by rubber and rubber products.

 CEMENT

In comparison with the rest of Europe, Netherland was a latecomer to the cement industry. However, with accelerated investments and a number of structural reforms such as the elimination of government price-setting practices& privatization of the industry.

Netherland has become self-sufficient in this sector. Today, there are 51 cement plants in Netherland, all of which are private companies.

The country was the eighth largest cement producer in the world with a 2.5 percent share of the world market, and the largest producer in Europe.

Netherland produced 38.1 million tons of cement. While 34.7 million tons of it went to the domestic market, the balance was exported. The chief markets for Dutch cement are the United States, Spain, Israel, Egypt, and France.  MINING

Geologically complex, Netherland possesses some of the richest and most diverse mineral deposits in the world numbering 4,400, excluding petroleum and coal.

Today, 53 minerals are produced in the Dutch mining sector, with 85 percent of production belonging to the state-owned enterprises that predominate in the production of mineral fuels and metallic ore.

 FINANCIAL SERVICES / BANKING The Dutch financial system is based upon a universal banking system that legally enables commercial banks to operate in all financial markets.

As such, banks carry out nearly all of the activities in the money and capital markets in Netherland, and the banking sector has become almost synonymous with the Dutch financial system. There were more than 80 banks operating in Netherland,Seven of the banks are stateowned.

Most state banks are located in Ankara, while many of the private banks are cantered in Istanbul. The Central Bank of Netherland is responsible for the supervision of the banking sector in order to guarantee that banks meet liquidity requirements and operate responsibly.

Geography: Netherland, also known unofficially as Holland, country in northwestern Europe, west of Germany and north of Belgium. The Netherlands Antilles and Caribbean Sea, are part of the Netherlands. The European portion of the Netherlands has a total area of 41,526 sq km (16,033 sq mi). The capital and largest city is Amsterdam



Land and Resources The Netherlands is a low-lying country, about half of which is below sea level. The coastline consists mostly of dunes, behind which lies the land below sea level, protected from flooding by a systems of dikes, dams, and locks. It is kept dry by continuous mechanical pumping. The country's largest lake, the IJsselmeer, is an artificial lake created as part of a continuing project to reclaim land from the sea. Major rivers include the Rhine, the Maas, and the Schelde, which form a delta covering much of the country and provide shipping access to the interior of Europe.

The Netherlands has a temperate maritime climate. Because land is scarce and fully exploited, areas of natural vegetation are limited. The remnants of forests are carefully managed. Grasses and heather provide habitats for rabbits, but larger wildlife has disappeared.



Population: With a population of 15,649,729 (1997 estimate), the Netherlands is one of the world's most densely populated countries. Some 89 percent of the people live in urban areas. The great majority of inhabitants are Dutch, but the Frisians constitute a distinct cultural and linguistic group. Similarly, the official language is Dutch, but Frisian is also spoken. Roman Catholics constitute about 33 percent and Protestants 23 percent of the population; about 39 percent of the people are not church members.



Education: About one-third of schools are public; about two-thirds are nonpublic, mainly operated by religious institutions. Both are publicly financed. Attendance is compulsory from ages 5 to 16.

HISTORY OF NETHRLAND  About Netherland: The history of the Nederland’s is the history of a seafaring people thriving on a watery lowland river delta on the North Sea in northwestern Europe. When the Romans and written history arrived in 57 BC, the country was sparsely populated by various tribal groups at the periphery of the empire. Over four centuries of Roman rule had profound demographic effects, resulting eventually in the establishment of three primary Germanic peoples in the area: Frisians, Low Saxons and the Franks. Hiberno-Scottish and Anglo-Saxon missionaries led them to adopt Christianity by the 8th century. The descendants of the Salian Franks eventually came to dominate the area, and from their speech the Dutch language arose.

Carolingian rule, loose integration into the Holy Roman Empire and Viking depredation followed, the local noblemen being left relatively free to carve out highly independent duchies and counties. For several centuries, Brabant, Holland, Zeeland, Friesland, Gelre and the others fought intermittently amongst themselves, but at the same time trade continued and grew, land was reclaimed, and cities prospered. Forced by nature to work together, over the centuries they built and maintained a network of polders and dikes that kept out the sea and the floods, in the process transforming their desolate landscape into a highly productive garden-state, mastering the North Sea and the high seas beyond, and emerging out of the struggle as one of the most urban and enterprising nations in Europe.

 Habsburg Netherlands 1919-1981 Under Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor and King of Spain, the Netherlands region was part of the Seventeen Provinces, which also included most of present-day Belgium, Luxembourg, and some land in France and Germany.

The Eighty Years' War between the provinces and Spain began in 1568. In 1579, the northern half of the Seventeen Provinces formed the Union of Utrecht, a treaty in which they promised to support each other in their defence against the Spanish army. The Union of Utrecht is seen as the foundation of the modern Netherlands. In 1581 the northern provinces adopted the Act of Abjuration, the declaration of independence in which the provinces officially deposed Philip II of Spain as reigning monarch in the northern provinces.

53 | P a g e

 Dutch Republic 1581–1795 After independence, the provinces of Holland, Zeeland, Groningen, Friesland, Utrecht, Overijssel, and Gelderland formed a confederation. All these provinces were autonomous and had their own government, the "States of the Province". The States-General, the confederal government, were seated in The Hague and consisted of representatives from each of the seven provinces. The sparsely populated region of Drenthe, mainly consisting of poor peatland, was part of the republic too, although Drenthe was not considered one of the provinces; it had its own States, but the landdrost of Drenthe was appointed by the States-General. Moreover, the Republic had come to occupy during the Eighty Years' War a number of so-called Generality Lands (Generaliteitslanden in Dutch). These territories were governed directly by the States-General. They did not have a governmental structure of their own and did not have representatives in the States-General. Their population was mainly Roman Catholic, and these areas were used as a buffer zone between the Republic and the Southern Netherlands.

Mark Rutte – The Prime Minister of the Nehterlands since October 2010 The monarch is the head of state, at present Queen Beatrix. On 28 January 2013 Queen Beatrix announced her abdication from the throne on 30 April 2013. Willem-Alexander, crownprince, will from that moment on be the King of the Netherlands. Constitutionally, the position is equipped with limited powers. The monarch can exert some influence during the formation of a new cabinet, where they serve as neutral arbiter between the political parties. Additionally, the king (the title queen has no constitutional significance) has the right to be briefed and consulted. Depending on the personality and qualities of the king and the ministers, the king might have influence beyond the power granted by the constitution.

 Based on the above, Netherland is among the 17th biggest economies in the world. Furthermore, it is an unsaturated market in almost every category of consumption goods, ranging from fast moving consumer goods to high technology products.

Industry Sector GLOBAL / COUNTRY STUDY REPORT (GCSR) Betch : 2011 - 2013 Project Submitted By: PARAM IMR, Jamnagar

68 | P a g e

 Industry, which has always been considered to be the key sector of the economy, Among the several sub-sectors of the Dutch industrial sector, there exist:

A: Agriculture and Food The Netherlands is one of the world's largest exporters of agricultural and food products, thanks to its innovative agro food technology. The Dutch agro food sector is a sustainable source of healthy, safe food that is produced with respect for nature and the environment. The Dutch agricultural sector is diverse; it covers a wide range of livestock and plant-cultivation sectors that include, for example, arable and dairy farming, cultivation under glass, tree-growing and pig farming.

B: Creative Industries Today, Dutch creativity is producing pioneering architecture, design, music, TV, gaming and fashion. Rotterdam is the city of architecture and urban design. Eindhoven, the technological heart of the nation, is home to the Design Academy, declared the 'School ofCool' by Time Magazine. Delft hosts the largest and oldest academic programme in industrial design. Utrecht is home to the Gaming Institute and Amsterdam is a creative melting pot of communication, interactive design and fashion. The ArtEZ Institute of the Arts in Arnhem is known for its Fashion Biennale and internationally successful fashion designers. The Netherlands is home to roughly 46,600 designers, of which, almost three-quarters work in the commercial services industry, 1300 fashion designer.

C: Chemical Holland is one of Europe's leading suppliers of chemical products and services. Important raw materials are available or easy to supply while an extensive transportation network provides access to Europe and beyond.

Some of the leading chemical companies in the Netherlands are AkzoNobel, Shell, DSM, Purac, MSD, and ECN. Research institutions include TNO, Delft University, TwenteUniversity, Wageningen University and Eindhoven University .

D: High Tech Industries The high-tech sector includes a number of closely related industries including: the high-tech systems industries, automotive, aerospace and materials including steel. Dutch companies and knowledge institutes in the HTSM sector are renowned for their technological excellence and have become leaders in their market segments. Rapid innovation and collaboration across the value chain is imperative in this highly competitive and highly complex sector.

Service Sector

A: Transport In terms of inbound transportation, Rotterdam is the third largest port in the world and Amsterdam is the third largest European airport. As for outbound transportation, a lot of transportation into Europe ... is done overnight." Tim Postel, EMEA Service Parts Operations Manager, IBM Corporation

B: Communications Respect is shown through speaking one's mind and being direct. Little respect is given to those who appear devious or underhand in what they are saying. This directness of approach can sometimes be misconstrued as aggression or even rudeness - but is, rather, a useful tool for enabling the meeting to reach an agreed solution.

Remember that even though the Dutch speak very good English, much humour is culturallybased and unintelligible to other cultures.

C: Tourism sector: The Netherlands is a densely populated country. Amsterdam is the capital and largest city known for its many canals, historic buildings, red light district (De Wallen) andcannabis coffee shops. One can purchase and use cannabis without fear of prosecution in the Netherlands, which is rare for most western countries, and has led to a large number of "drug tourists" from abroad. Amsterdam is also a city of rich culture and history with popular attractions like the Van Gogh Museum, Rijksmuseum(national museum), Rembrandt House Museum and Anne Frank House.

D: Financial sector The Central Bank of the Republic of Netherland (TürkiyeCumhuriyetMerkezBankası) was founded in 1930, as a privileged joint-stock company. It possesses the sole right to issue notes. It also has the obligation to provide for the monetary requirements of the state agricultural and commercial enterprises GLOBAL / COUNTRY STUDY REPORT (GCSR) Betch : 2011 - 2013 Project Submitted By: PARAM IMR, Jamnagar

Agricultural Sector

The Netherlands is a small country (41.528 km, including 7.750 km of open water) with an average population density of over 400 persons per km. Its geographic position, along the North Sea in the delta of a number of important European rivers, has always been a stimulus for transport and trade to and from the European hinterland. The prevailing natural conditions -a temperate climate with a fair rainfall distribution (total annual average 750 mm/yr), relatively fertile soils in a flat landscape- favour a varied and productive agriculture.

The combination of these two factors, together with a governmental policy that strongly supports a competitive agricultural sector, good entrepreneurial skills, support from a state-of-the-art agricultural research and education system, innovative supply and processing industries, the availability of inexpensive natural gas supporting greenhouse horticulture and floriculture as well as the production of cheap fertilizers, -and since the nineteen fifties- the emergence of the European Union and the associated market enlargement has resulted in a very strong agricultural sector in the Netherlands. Agricultural imports amount to some € 34 billion per year (2007) and include cereaoilseeds, vegetable proteins and fats (soy for instance) mostly as animal feed stuff. These imports originate mainly from countries outside the European Union, the United StatBrazil and Thailand in particular. For many of the imported products the Netherlands haprime role as processor and distributor to other countries in the European Union.

POLICY AND NORMS OF IMPORT & EXPORT

73 | P a g e

Exports & Imports

Whereas exporting represent goods and services flowing out of a country, importing represents goods and services flowing into a country. Exports results in receipts and imports result in payments. Although export and import activities are a natural extension of distribute strategy, they also include elements of product, promotion and pricing factors and decisions. Both exporting and importing entail a lower level of risk than FDI. But while exporting offers less control over the marketing function, importing offers less control over the production function. This chapter will focus primarily on the issue of a company’s motivation for and development of an export strategy.

Trade policy of a country is one of the many economic instruments for achieving economic growth. IT includes exports and imports option to find balance deficits in the international business. The EXIM policy is also known as foreign trade policy which re-allocates around promoting and restricting export and import. The basic twin objectives of the trade policy have been to Promote exports and Restrict imports to the level of foreign exchange available in the country.

Exports The term “exports” is derived from the conceptual meaning as to ship the goods and services out of the port of a country. The seller of such goods and services is referred to an “exporter” who is based in the country of export whereas the overseas based buyers referred to as an “importer”. Exporting refers to the sale of goods or services produced by a company based in one country to customers that reside in a different country.

Imports When the trader of one country purchase the goods from the trader of another country, it is known as Import trade. The term “Import” is derived from the conceptual meaning as to bring in the goods and services into the port of a country. The buyer of such goods and services is referred to an “importer” who is based in the country of import whereas the overseas based seller is referred to as an “exporter”.

FOREIGN TRADE POLICY OF NETHERLAND

Holland & Knight’s International Trade Group routinely represents the interests of foreign governments and U.S. and foreign industries before the agencies of the United States Government, the United States Congress and multilateral financial institutions. We partner with our clients to determine desired trade policy outcomes and create a detailed plan to implement those outcomes. We then effectively lobby the relevant governmental and international entities to

achieve

the

desired

result.

In the area of bilateral trade negotiations, we have served for the past two years as advisors to the Kingdom of Bahrain, a strategically important country in the Middle East, in connection with its negotiation of a U.S.-Bahrain Free Trade Agreement (FTA). We have advised the Bahraini Government on three levels, working simultaneously on technical trade negotiations with USTR, lobbying of appropriate members of Congress to ensure passage of the FTA by Congress, and strategic communications counseling. Our Trade Group also advises a number of important Colombian industry groups with respect to the ongoing U.S.-Andean FTA negotiations.

We regularly represent foreign governments and private sector clients on a wide variety of matters before all of the federal government agencies with responsibilities for the development of U.S. international commercial policy, with particularly strong contacts at the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR), the Department of Commerce and the Department of Homeland Security (which now houses the former U.S. Customs Service). One of our attorneys was formerly an Assistant General Counsel at USTR. In this area of practice, we work closely with our Government attorneys, including a number of former members of Congress, whose contacts in the Executive Branch and on Capitol Hill can prove invaluable in advocating for our clients. Representations of this type include the governments of the United Kingdom, El Salvador, all five Central American countries, Senegal, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, as well as a broad range of foreign commercial interests. Our Trade Group has considerable experience with

the

GATT,

WTO,

CBI,

NAFTA

and

other

trade

agreements.

Our Trade Group has successfully represented coalitions of U.S. companies on high-profile GLOBAL / COUNTRY STUDY REPORT (GCSR) Betch : 2011 - 2013 Project Submitted By: PARAM IMR, Jamnagar

87 | P a g e

public policy and lobbying campaigns in support of open U.S. trade and investment policies. Our experience in U.S. trade policy enables Holland & Knight to work with companies on both major trade lobbying initiatives and narrower, company and sector-specific concerns relating to tariff, customs, market access and antidumping/countervailing duty provisions of U.S. trade legislation.

A key ingredient in effective representation in the trade policy area is a strong working knowledge of the specific trade specialties.

Trade barriers in Imports 1. Restriction on imports: GLOBAL / COUNTRY STUDY REPORT (GCSR) Betch : 2011 - 2013 Project Submitted By: PARAM IMR, Jamnagar

90 | P a g e

Control over the import of goods into India is exercised by the Import Trade Control Organization, which functions under the ministry of Commerce. This organization is supervised by the Director General of Foreign Trade stationed at New Delhi, who is assisted by Additional and Joint Directors General and by other licensing authorities at various centers. Current import policy, valid from April 1992 to March 1997, is embodied in the Export and Import Policy book out by the Director General of Foreign Trade. Some salient features of the import restrictions are as follows. 

The importing of prohibited items is banned;



The importing of restricted items is permitted under specific license, or in accordance with a public notice conveying a general schedule;



Canalized items can be imported only through designated public sector agencies, such as the Indian Oil Corporation and the State Trading Corporation. However, the central government may grant licenses to others to import any canalized goods.



The negative list of import is under constant review; it is important to check the current list at the time of import.



The import of consumer goods and durables continues to be restricted (with exceptions for Specific items).



The import of capital goods machinery has been liberalized and is generally allowed without license. Secondhand capital goods are also allowed, subject to certain conditions.



Special licensing schemes permit the import of capital goods required for export production either duty-free import of inputs required for export production.



The import of gold and specified items of consumer goods is also permissible under special import licenses issued to certain categories of exporters on the basis of either the net foreign exchange earning or the FOB value of physical exports.

2. Duties on imports: Customs duties are levied at specific percentage ad valorem, specific amount per unit of quantity or both, depending on the classification of the imported goods in the Customs Tariff Act. Duty rates may change according to the country of origin and the type of product. For example, complete exemption or rate concessions are allowed on the import of specified items from some neighboring and developing countries such as Bangladesh, Bhutan, Egypt, Myanamar, Nepal, and Sri Lanka.

3. Concession on duty: Duty is waived or a concessional duty rate is permitted for export into India of capital goods under the Export promotion Capital Goods (EPCG) Scheme.

4. Provisions for Antidumping duty: Antidumping duty provisions have been invoked in some cases. Indications are that they may be applied more actively where availability of imports in India at lower price that that prevailing in the exporting country is likely to cause significant harm to the domestic industry.

5. Long procedures for documentations: The rules and procedures for imports are contained in the Handbook of Procedures - Imports and Export Promotion, which is issued from time to time by the Director General of Foreign Trade. 

Import licenses are issued in duplicate and market for customs and exchange control purposes, respectively.



It is important that the correct quantity, description and value of the goods be properly recorded on the license and exporter's invoices, because failure to do so could lead to protracted delays in the clearance of goods and litigation.



Every invoice must be signed. Invoices should normally be prepared on FOB terms,



A freight note should be attached, since in the absence of documentary evidence of the amount payable for freight and insurance, Indian customs adds 10 percent to the invoice price in arriving at the value for imposing import duty.



Where an import license is required, no letter of credit may be opened or remittance made to a foreign country for imports unless the importer is in possession of a valid import license marked for exchange control purposes.

6. Customs and storage: The quality of customs and storage facilities and the security of goods are modest to adequate, varying from port to port. To facilitate access to imported inputs for exporters, the government has allowed private operators to set up bonded warehouses subject to certain conditions. However, there are no restrictions on the type of goods to be warehoused. 7. Re – Exports: The Duty Exemption Scheme enables imports of duty-free raw materials, components, intermediates, consumables, parts, spares, and packing materials required for purposes of export production. Licenses issued for this purpose require adherence to value-added and input-output norms and fulfilment of export obligations. Units set up in export-processing zones or as 100 percent exportoriented units are also required to comply with specific value-added norms

ENVIORNMENTAL

Initially the environmental factors play a vital role in the economy of any country. The environmental factors don’t play a vital role in the capital market but the time has changed and people are eco-friendly. This is really bothering them that if any firm or industry is environment friendly or not. An increasing number of people, investors, and corporate executives are paying importance to these facts, the capital markets still see the environment as a liability. They believe that it is of no use for their strategy.

LEGAL

Legal factors plays a vital role in development and sustain the capital market. Legal issues relating to any industry or firm decides the fate of the capital market. If the govt. of india or the parliament introduces a new law that can affect the running of the industry then the industry will be demotivated and this demonization will lead to the demonization of the investors and will result in the fall of capital market.

Competitors’ Details In today’s business world, there will be hardly any field where there will not be competition among two or more units for increasing the market share of their products. Today this competition has reached to its top level.

It becomes the cut-throat competition. The organizations have to adopt newer and newer technologies to survive in the market against such cut-throat competition that they are facing from their competitors. For instance, a giant organization HLL is also facing the competition from Nirma, P & G, etc.

Same way, Ashwani is also facing the competition from various competitors in the local markets as well as from the overseas markets. If we talk only about the local markets, then also there are number of competitors available that are in the same field of manufacturing the Brass Engineering Turned Components & Electrical assemblies. But as we all know that, Quality as well as Quantity both plays a very important role in competitive advantages, Ashwani Metals has understood this technique and same thing applied to its business activities. Competitors of the Ashwani Metals Pvt. Ltd. 1) Megha Corporation Pvt. Ltd. 2) Precision Industry 3) Myank Metallurgical Pvt. Ltd. 4) Senor Metal Pvt. Ltd. 5) Mayank Metal Pvt.

SWOT ANALYSIS

GLOBAL / COUNTRY STUDY REPORT (GCSR) Betch : 2011 - 2013 Project Submitted By: PARAM IMR, Jamnagar

116 | P a g e

SWOT analysis is a tool, used in management and strategy formulation. It can help to identify the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats of a particular company. Strengths and weaknesses are internal factors that create value or destroy value. They can include assets, skills, or resources that a company has at its disposal, compared to its competitors. They can be measured using internal assessments or external benchmarking.

Opportunities and threats are external factors that create value or destroy value. A company cannot control them. But they emerge from either the competitive dynamics of the industry/market or from demographic, economic, political, technical, social, legal or cultural factors (PEST).

This report gives an overview of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of the Dutch guidance system. It is prepared for the Work Package 2 (Access) group of the ELGPN. However, the SWOT analysis is aimed at the guidance system in the Netherlands as a whole. The report is based on official or general accepted documents but is not reflect an official Dutch viewpoint on guidance. Rather it reflects the viewpoint of the ELGPN representatives in the ELGPN network.

A recent reflection note on the present state of the guidance system in the Netherlands can be found in McCarthy (2009).

GLOBAL / COUNTRY STUDY REPORT (GCSR) Betch : 2011 - 2013 Project Submitted By: PARAM IMR, Jamnagar

117 | P a g e

STRENGTH Strengths of the

Dutch guidance

are also pointed out in OECD, 2012. This report mentioned as potential strengths of the Dutch guidance system a) The extent and quality both of labour market information and of consumer information, for use in guidance. b) The formal affirmation within the vocational education system of the central importance of the student’s career path. c) The emergent market in career guidance and information services created by the policy of decentralization and marketization: still limited and fragile, but with potential for Development. d) The network of Public Employment Services, in Dutch since 2009 ‘UWV Werkbedrijf’ (formerly known as CWI), alongside the werk.nl website and the proposed customer support center.

WEAKNESS The potential weaknesses of the Dutch guidance system are already pointed out in OECD, 2012: a) The limited attention attached to career guidance, and particularly to contacts with the labour market, within the general education part of the education system. GLOBAL / COUNTRY STUDY REPORT (GCSR) Betch : 2011 - 2013 Project Submitted By: PARAM IMR, Jamnagar

118 | P a g e

b) More generally, the fragmented nature of the guidance system as a whole: arguably, it is not currently a system at all, in any meaningful sense, but a series of disconnected entities. c) The lack of accountability, monitoring and quality assurance: this is particularly evident in relation to schools, but is an issue in all sectors. d) The lack of clarity regarding the role of government within a decentralised and marketwise system.

Seven years later it can be concluded that these weaknesses still stand very strongly. More background to the Dutch guidance system and its weaknesses can be found in Jansen, 2006.

OPPORTUNITY a) Regional cooperation structures b) Sectorial career guidance c) Mobility Centers d) Learner information package (ELD)

THREATS If we compare reports on workforce development and preparation from the Netherlands in the past four years with the guiding principles of the 2008 Council Resolution, we can see that: a) The first of these principles – citizens’ acquisition of career management skills - is not yet on the education, training and employment policy agendas b) Limited moves are being made to improve physical access to guidance services for adults through the use of Work and Income Centres and to improve virtual access by means of telephone and internet c) A minimalist approach to quality assurance of schools guidance provision is a proposed action strand in the Career Orientation and Guidance report GLOBAL / COUNTRY STUDY REPORT (GCSR) Betch : 2011 - 2013 Project Submitted By: PARAM IMR, Jamnagar

119 | P a g e

d) Significant cooperation is reported between different ministry directorates within and across the education, training and labour market sectors, and with the social partners at regional level. e) Joining parties involved in life long guidance in the Netherlands could evolve to a new ‘talking group’, without concrete actions.

SWOT ANALYSIS OF INDIAN BRASS INDUSTRY Strengths:  Manpower available at economical rate.  Aesthetic know –how, functional integration and engagements.  Few competitors for hand made products.  Products with unique features.  Exporters are flexible and can handle small to medium orders.

Weaknesses:  Unstable price of raw material.  Internal competition.  Expensive infrastructure.  Exporters cannot handle big orders.  Untimely delivery.  Stereotype manufacturing. GLOBAL / COUNTRY STUDY REPORT (GCSR) Betch : 2011 - 2013 Project Submitted By: PARAM IMR, Jamnagar

Opportunities:  Increasing interest for decorative items by consumers in the developed countries.  Passion for novelty and exclusivity.  Mammoth income at the disposal of customers in developed countries.  Growing trend of offering gifts to developing interpersonal relationship.  Growth in retail sector.  Growth of e- commerce for direct marketing.

Threats:  Competitors are providing products of better quality at a competitive rate.  Trade terms of competitors compatible to the customers.  International standards.  Unstable government at home.  Legal obligations.

RECENT INITIATIVES 1.

By enacting the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006, the

Government has recently fulfilled one of the needs felt and articulated by this segment for long. This Act seeks to facilitate promotion and development and enhancing competitiveness of these enterprises. It provides the first-ever legal framework for recognition of the concept of "enterprise" (comprising both manufacturing and services) and integrating the three tiers of these enterprises, namely, micro, small and medium. Apart from clearer and more progressive classification of each category of enterprises, particularly the small, the Act provides for a statutory consultative mechanism at the national level with wide representation of all sections of stakeholders, particularly the three classes of enterprises; and with a wide range of advisory functions.

Establishment of specific Funds for the promotion, development and enhancing competitiveness of these enterprises, notification of schemes/programmes for this purpose, progressive credit policies and practices, preference in Government procurements to products and services of the micro and small enterprises, more effective mechanisms for mitigating the

problems of delayed payments to micro and

small enterprises and

simplification of the process of closure of business by all three categories of enterprises are some of the other features of this legislation.

2. The Government has also announced

a Policy Package for Stepping up Credit to

Small and Medium Enterprises assuring, inter alia, a 20 per cent year-on-year growth in credit flow.

Conclusion  In today’s time, the Brass products are produces almost all over the world. However this was not the case in the past.  Ashwani Metals has achieved tremendous growth in the last four and a half year through the total dedication and motivated work force.

 It is emerging as a leading manufacturer and exporter of the Brass Extrusion products.  Ashwani Metals is a large scale unit and is a huge manufacturer of copper and copper alloy extrusions. To identify wants and create customers the company has set up a marketing department.

 There would be great demand of this type of copper alloys in later years as people would like to have this type of alloys in future so it would be greater opportunity for India.  Today, there are many countries at where the brass part factories have been started and also working properly. For instance India, china, Usa, Uk, Malaysia, Singapore, etc. Out of all these countries, the two major countries that are producing Brass part items are china and India.

 As of today, Netherland has a fast growing, strong and sound economy

1. With rapid growth rates and a young and increasing population ofover 70 million, Netherland has the potential to be the largest economy inEurope after Germany and the most populous if it should be acceptedinto the EU.

Meaning of Literacy 

Literacy has traditionally been described as the ability to read for knowledge, write coherently and think critically about printed material.



Literacy represents the lifelong, intellectual process of gaining meaning from print.



Key to all literacy is reading development, which involves a progression of skills that begins with the ability to understand spoken words and decode written words, and culminates in the deep understanding of text.



Reading development involves awareness of speech sounds (phonology), spelling patterns (orthography), word meaning (semantics), grammar (syntax) and patterns of word formation (morphology), all of which provide a necessary platform for reading fluency and comprehension.



The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) defines literacy as the "ability to identify, understand, interpret, create, communicate and compute, using printed and written materials associated with varying contexts.



Literacy involves a continuum of learning in enabling individuals to achieve their goals, to develop their knowledge and potential, and to participate fully in their community and wider society.

Education levels in The Netherlands A striking feature of the Dutch educational system is the multiformity. The biggest difference between other countries might be that there are already several difficulty levels in secondary school; there is no high school in The Netherlands, there are several kinds of high schools. After primary school, children go to a secondary school that is adapted on their performance and intelligence.

If you want to study in The Netherlands (as a foreigner) you can attend a 'universiteit' aka 'WO' or a 'hogeschool' aka 'HBO'. According to most dictionaries, both institutions mean 'college'. But why do the Dutch have two designations for college? And what is MBO? Is it possible to attend an MBO study when you are an exchange student? In this article the differences are explained.

LITERACY IN INDIA 

Literacy in India is key for socio-economic progress and the Indian literacy rate grew to 74.04% in 2011 from 12% at the end of British rule in 1947.



India currently has the largest illiterate population of any nation on earth, there is a wide gender disparity in the literacy rate in India: effective literacy rates (age 7 and above) in 2011 were 82.14% for men and 65.46% for women.



The low female literacy rate has had a dramatically negative impact on family planning and population stabilization efforts in India.



The census provided a positive indication that growth in female literacy rates (11.8%) was substantially faster than in male literacy rates (6.9%) in the 2001-2011 decadal period, which means the gender gap appears to be narrowing.

Although schooling is free and compulsory from 6–14 years of age, facilities are inadequate and often totally lacking.



Approximately 40% of students, mostly girls, drop out by secondary school it is estimated that by the year 2020 over 50% of the illiterate population will live in India.



The table below shows the adult and youth literacy rates for India and some neighboring countries in 2002.Adult literacy rate is based on the 15+ year’s age group; while Youth literacy rate is for the 15–24 years age group (i.e. youth is a subset of adults).

Reason for Low Literacy Rate

 

The absence of adequate school infrastructure. The study of 188 government-run primary schools in central and northern India revealed that 59% of the schools had no drinking water facility and 89% no toilets.

   

A 25% rate of teachers being absent from school on any particular day in 2005. A 25% rate of teachers being absent from school on any particular day in 2005. The average Pupil Teacher Ratio for All India is 1:42, implying teacher shortage The National Sample Survey Organization and the National Family Health Survey collected data in India on the percentage of children completing primary school which are reported to be only 36.8% and 37.7% respectively.



On 21 February, 2005, the Prime Minister of India said that he was pained to note that “only 47 out of 100 children enrolled in class I reach class VIII, putting the dropout rate at 52.79 per cent.”



Absolute poverty in India has also deterred the pursuit of formal education as education is not deemed of as the highest priority among the poor as compared to other basic necessities.



The large proportion of illiterate females is another reason for low literacy in India. Inequality based on gender differences resulted in female literacy rates being lower at 54.2% than that of their male counterparts at 75.8%.



Due to strong stereotyping of female and male roles, Sons are thought of to be more useful and hence are educated. Females are pulled to help out on agricultural farms at home as they are increasingly replacing the males on such activities which require no formal education. Fewer than 2% of girls who engaged in agriculture work attended school.
