EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Budget is one of the important and powerful tools available to the organization to have
estimates about expenses and income for a definite period of time. Budgetary control involves
the use of budget and budgetary reports, throughout the period to co-ordinate, evaluate and
control day to day operations in accordance with the goals specified by the budget. In this
present scenario it is very necessary to reduce the cost in regard of all terms to sustain in the
market. So i have taken budgetary control as my study, which carries huge weight age to
reduce the wastages and does the process efficiently.
Budgetary control is a tool of management used to plan, carry out and control the operations of
the business. The entrepreneur finds it quite handy in planning the growth of his business or
enterprise.
The concept and procedures under budget plan and control have wide application not only in
profits- oriented enterprises but in every enterprise where the resource are limited and have to be
properly applied. This, in a sense is ‘managerial budgeting’. It applies to public and private
enterprises, government departments and charitable organizations.
The modern approach is towards a comprehensive budget plan and control. Of all business
activities, budgeting is one of the most important aspects and, therefore requires detailed
attention.
8
systems, for those without an existing budgetary control system, they should put one in place,
and those with a dummy or passive budgetary control system, it is time they re-established a
result-oriented budgetary control system as it goes a long way in repositioning the
manufacturing industry from its creeping performance level to an improved high capacity
utilization point.

assets will be taking into account. The amount to be spent on purchase of materials, payment to
creditors and meeting various other revenue and capital expenditure needs should be considered.

ASSUMPTIONS:
1. Plant utilization up to 100%.
2. Book value of plant 1 and 2 i.e. 7.5465 crores and 6.353 crores is taken under the
condition of 100% capacity and these are the values taken on the basis of average of
previous years.
3. Here the growth rate is taken is 9% for both production of UREA and MI and sales on
the basis of following factors.
Area coverage under sown is 638.33 lakhs hector which increased a lot when
Compared to the previous year (10%). Irrigational potential has Increased 81.1
to 102.08 % up to previous year and more over the govt has come with improved
accelerated irrigation benefit program (alibi)-special grant extension programs for
pending projects, increased international demand for fertilizers about (11%), And
fertilizer consumption compared to previous year and apart from this growth
33
4. As this year, The Company is going to use gas as raw material, the expenses relating to
the specific energy is increased because previously the company is used naphtha as
major raw material for the production which incurs more cost than gas. At the same
time variable cost of naphtha raw materials is reduced to larger extent. And fixed cost
of production is kept as same as it is observed from previous budget. Group concession
is shown at a normal growth of previous budget.
5. The subsidy towards agriculture and fertilizers this year is shown a good growth from
previous years and is about 99456 crores. As keeping this in the mind growth relating
to subsidy is observed 29% previously, so this time it is more than that. Hence
considered 35%as growth rate (huge govt support this time for fertilizer industry to
increase the production and productivity).
6. Hence the demand, subsidy, support price, grown sown area, good rain fall prediction
and many other programs may lead to good growth rate when compared to the previous
(8%). On basis of above things 2% growth rate is taken on previous year percentage.
7. As earlier mentioned that the subsidy towards the agriculture and fertilizers is in this
financial year is more compared to the previous years i.e,15% growth rate ,Hence
applied better rate than that of previous years and it is about 18%.
8. As keeping in the mind regarding inflation rate, market trends and other variable
conditions, The expenditure relating to the purchase of raw materials for future may be
expected to be more than previous years and apart from this supply of raw materials in
regard of manufacturing is falling short that of demand .Hence they need to pay more
for the suppliers to get the required things.
9. In the previous budget there is decline in the growth rate of expenditure on fuel and
power ,But as on present conditions of market in regard of fuel and power is increasing
rather than decrease .Hence in that view, Increased 2% on previous year budget.
10. The growth rate relating to the salaries, wages and benefits are applied as same as the
previous year. Such that the employees, workers and others work dedicatedly and
34
11. As on the basis of increasing production of units, packaging materials required will be
also be more .So, 4% is taken as growth rate on previous year.
12. They have taken 10% growth rate which normally which prevails in the market rent
deeds but where as in the previous year budget they have shown declined growth rate.
13. In the present situation, expenses, rates, taxes, and maintained relating have been
increased (inflation).In the same line, some nominal growth rate is applied, which is
normally observed in the market every year due to various factors.
14. As the present market is slowly recovering, and flow of funds in market is low so as per
assumptions, banks and other institutional lenders may provide at lesser interest rate
when compared to previous years and it would be very beneficial to the company in
financial terms.
15. As per the norms of the companies act and company, depreciation % and method will
be depending. As per that, it had been applied.

SUGGESTIONS:
a. Budgetary control avails huge benefits if it properly applied. But it is not possible in the
NFCL because it does not have proper structure and pattern of organization, as knowledge also
lies in the lines of authority and it is possible to get full advantage only the structure is proper.
b. NFCL needed to divide the organization into sub units. Such that decision centers and
profit centers. Which will be also used as investment, profit, cost centres and improves
responsibility and accountability of employees towards their work.
Conclusion:
NFCL is one of the leading manufacturer of fertilizers, it has given many subsidies by the
government in regard to provide the fertilizers at lower price to farmers. NFCL has a
huge capacity to produce UREA and MI in their respected plants when compared to
other fertilizer companies such as Deepak, Bharth, Chambal fertilizers. Expenditure
relating to the raw materials is showing the faster growth in NFCL and along with they
are also going for more borrowings from outside then what they have expected. Apart
from this company is also possessing huge investments and returns on it when compared
to all other companies (as per the study). NFCL is also incurring less amount towards its
distribution channel and it has huge assets in its hand, which shows the soundness of the
company.
