stated by the director they think it will be a good idea to plan for new
machinery as the ones being currently used are outdated and they would
like to import world class machinery rather than source local ones,
especially s they do not have to pay a duty. Further, the Company will also
be able to use more efficient machinery leading to savings in the
production costs.
The operative unit at the SEZ would be able to claim for service tax refund
for services which are availed of from outside the tax free export zone18.
This will further help the organization to further reduce costs.
The Purchase/Sale transactions would not attract any VAT or C.S.T19
charges20 Currently non- SEZ units have to incur a cost by way of service
tax to the tune of about 12.33% on banking charges, transport charges,
courier charges, security services and maintenance services/charges. The
Sales Tax itself is at the rate of 4 % of the invoice value. In addition they
have to pay a local tax known as Local Sales Tax, which is commodity
dependent but is at an average of 10 %. If the company relocated to the
SEZ then they have will a substantial cost savings of 4 % on all raw
material inputs and on local sales tax and service tax. A decrease in the
tax to be paid will help reduce costs and so boost the profit margins,
allowing the Company to be more competitive in the international market.
The current land prices at Ajmer Road, Jaipur where the SEZ is located
are Rs. 636 per sq feet21 approximately. The land at Mahindra SEZ is
available at a subsidized rate of Rs22. 240 per sq feet. As compared to the

current market price, it is a saving of almost 200% on the purchase of the
land. These cost advantages can be used to offset and purchase the
machinery from other countries.
Apart from the cost savings the other benefits include:
Speeding up the Exim Process: The SEZ has special customs area
staffed with custom officers which will deal with units within the SEZ.
Therefore, as their focus is only these units so the whole process
becomes faster, leading to substantial savings in time which may be
utilized by the Company for other purpose.
The SEZ can have 100 % Foreign Direct Investment (FDI).23 Therefore in
future if the wants to undertake growth using a foreign partner or would
like to sell the business to a Foreign Company, then the options are
available to Opel Overseas on account of the permission being granted by
the Government for the same. Thus the use of Brownfield expansion 24 is
available for Opel Overseas.
The SEZ Company can borrow up to US$500 million(approx equivalent to
INR 2500 million) in a year without any maturity restriction through
recognized banking channels25. The value of loan sanctioned depends on
the business plan and the credit rating of the Company. This will be an

important source of finance for the organization as it will allow the
Organization to borrow large sums of money for a longer period of time.
Hence, allowing the organization greater flexibility in arranging for loans
and also undertaking aggressive growth plans or capital investment.
Single window clearance for Central and State level approvals- this will
help the firm get rid of the red tapism and will lead to faster working
around the bureaucracy.
Further, Mahindra World City has26 the following features which will be
advantageous to the Company :
World class infrastructure: Keeping the needs of the exporters in mind
and the problems faced by them on account of poor infrastructure, the
MWC27 has invested to ensure that the infrastructure is world class, with
abundant power and water so that the units in the SEZ do not lose
production hours.
External economies of scale: Due to availability of skilled manpower
from nearby villages, the supply of manpower is ensured.
A one stop logistics Solution: The SEZ has an area earmarked for In-
house logistics and Warehousing zone. This will facilitate the movement
from the SEZ of the custom cleared goods and as the degree of
specialization will be high, so improvement in service levels will be seen.
Dedicated handicraft zone : The SEZ has exclusive areas marked
according to the type of products being produced. So due to all the
handicraft firms being clustered together, there may be many ancillary
firms available leading to time and cost savings due to external economies
of scale.26 http://www.mahindraworldcity.com/jaipur.aspx27 Mahindra World City

The additional benefits are that the SEZ has Public Utilities like;
Details of Accident Prone Areas
Road Map/Road Details
E mail Addresses and Telephone Numbers
Accident/Trauma Care Centers
While these facilities are not essential yet their presence will benefit the organization as
the presence of these services will create a good image in the minds of the employees
and buyers regarding the concern which the Company has for emergency situations.
Analysis of the data collected to understand the benefits of relocation to the SEZ clearly
show that the Company stands to get substantial cost advantage which will have the
overall effect of decreasing the cost of operations and improve profit margins.
However, prior to undertaking any decision a financial cost benefit analysis of the
decision is a prerequisite.
2. Financial Analysis
After considering the cost advantages to Opel Overseas of relocating to the SEZ,
investment appraisal techniques were used to understand the attractiveness of the
project.
Candidate Session No. 002760-00
15 “Will relocation to Mahindra World City (SEZ) provide Opel Overseas with Competitive and cost advantage”?
1. PAYBACK PERIOD
The initial investment required for setting up the factory is estimated to be Rs. 4.75 million28. The source of funds for the project is internal accruals and loan from the bank29.
Years Cash Inflow (all figures in million)
Operating Cost
Net Cash Inflow
Cumulative Cash Inflow

Table 1:Fund Flow Statement
Calculating the payback period.
Time taken to Recover the funds: Amt to Be Recovered/inflows
=3 years 4.3 months
Therefore the company will recover Rs. 4.75 million in approximately 3 years and 4.3
months. The payback period is short enough to make the project financially attractive.
2. ACCOUNTING RATE OF RETURN (ARR)
The Calculation of ARR is based on Table 1 pg 14
ARR= (Annual Profits/Initial Investment)*100
28 Appendix 1: Interview Of the Director
29 ibid
Candidate Session No. 002760-00
16 “Will relocation to Mahindra World City (SEZ) provide Opel Overseas with Competitive and cost advantage”?
Total Profit = 71 – 47.5
= 23.5
Average Profit = 23.5/5
= 4.7
ARR = (4.7 x 100) / 47.5
= 9.89%
The investment appraisal techniques return a payback of 3 years and 4.3 months and
an ARR of 9.89%. Both the figures are attractive enough to make the relocation
financially attractive. Moreover, the cost savings in operations coupled with the high
ARR and a short Payback Period make the project a financially lucrative decision both
in the short and the long run.
3. Qualitative Analysis
The final decision to undertake a project depends not only on the financial advantages
but also on a host of non financial factors. Therefore, it is important to understand the
non financial advantages and risks which will accrue to the business as a result of this
business decision.
Candidate Session No. 002760-00
17 “Will relocation to Mahindra World City (SEZ) provide Opel Overseas with Competitive and cost advantage”?
Capital Gains
The current premises of the organization which is located at Amer Road, Jaipur can be
easily sold or rented. This is because it is at prime location. The funds raised from the
sale may be utilised to finance the relocation and purchase of the new factory. This will
help to reduce the dependence on loans which may be expensive and prevent the
retained profits from being completely used up.
External Economies Of scale
The area is expected to benefit from external economies of scale as the presence of
handicraft exporters in close proximity will encourage skilled manpower and specialist
mechanics and support firms to setup in the vicinity. This will be advantageous as the
Company may otherwise have to spend money on hiring labour on increased wages.
Further transportation of samples, documents and shipments is another area of concern
in the current business structure. Non reliable service on account of low cost
advantages has often affected the delivery time of the Company. If the Company
relocates, this issue is addressed as there will be a presence of major international
cargo and courier movers, providing service at competitive rates.
Improved Quality Standards
Quality check at the SEZ would by default improve the quality of production and
positively impact the business by creating the image of superior quality. The handicrafts
would easily be able to establish their supremacy over the other inferior look alike which
have flooded the market. The buyer/importer would be able to easily understand the
Company’s commitment to authentic designs and quality.
The investment in technology will create better stock control and prevent pilferages and
spoilage of the raw material. This in turn will ensure that the product is of the highest
quality and standard.
Contemporary Production Facilities
The existing factory is old and outdated as per the present and future requirements.
Candidate Session No. 002760-00
18 “Will relocation to Mahindra World City (SEZ) provide Opel Overseas with Competitive and cost advantage”?
Building a new factory will help the Company to use the modern technology and
infrastructure to create a production facility which is not only efficient in production but is
also aesthetically appealing.
The modern infrastructure and equipment will help create an image of the Company as
one which sets and meets high quality standards. Moreover, the new premises will also
allow the organization to implement the health and safety norms as per the prevalent
standards. Therefore if any customer was to visit the factory, the Company will be able
to prove their commitment to quality easily. This in turn may improve orders and
revenues.
Centralized operations and effect on LabourThe Current facilities of the Organization are scattered in different areas with the
production facility located in Amer Road, the design facilities in another part of the town
at Old City and the export office in C scheme. This makes it difficult for the owners to
coordinate and increase the cost of travelling within the city. With the new facility being
set up all the departments will be housed at one location. This will make better
coordination possible, which in turn is expected to increase productivity.
Labour CostsThe SEZ is located in Mahapura, which is on the outskirts of Jaipur. As a result the
Company will have access to skilled labour which currently resides in Mahapura30. This
will generate cost savings to the company as it will not have to retrain the labour.
Quantitatively, this will result in cost savings to the tune of 6% of the total operating
30 Appendix1: Interview Of the Director
Candidate Session No. 002760-00
19 “Will relocation to Mahindra World City (SEZ) provide Opel Overseas with Competitive and cost advantage”?
costs31. Therefore, while the Company may have to hire new labour as the existing
ones may not wish to relocate on account of the increased distance. The current labour
force resides mainly in Amer32(North Of Jaipur), which is about three km from the
existing factory. The proposed site is on the other side of the town (South Of Jaipur)
which would increase the commuting distance by almost forty kilometers.
Uncertain FutureHowever despite the bulk of the factors being in favour of the relocation, the impact is
primarily due to the cost savings and modernization of the factory. There is no certainty
that the relocation will help in getting more orders as the decrease in orders has been
on account of macroeconomic environment and external factors like increase in
domestic and international competition. Therefore while the Company may improve
profit margins on account of lower costs it will not be able to improve revenues if the
marketing team is unable to create and capitalize on the business opportunity the new
factory may present.
Unemployment And Demotivated workforce.The move to the new premises involves greater distance to be travelled by the
workforce. As most of the workers are in the lowest rung (Physiological Needs)of the
Maslow’s pyramid of Needs(Fig 3), as they are on daily wages. They are dependent on
the Company for their livelihood.

Fig 2: Abraham Maslow’s Hierarchy Of Needs
The relocation will cause them to travel a distance greater than forty kilometers per day,
and also increase their travel expenses. This increase will decrease their net income
and so they will feel motivated. This will affect their operational productivity and may
increase their labour turnover. Therefore the Company has to plan ahead to ensure that
employees are not retrenched and or demotivated.
Conclusion and Recommendation
Based on the research carried out, the relocation appears to be a strategic move which
will accrue both financial and non financial advantage to the organization. The
21 “Will relocation to Mahindra World City (SEZ) provide Opel Overseas with Competitive and cost advantage”?
The primary motivator for moving to the SEZ is the extension in the exemption
from Income Tax which the Company will receive for the next five years and a
smaller percentage after that. The current income tax exemption is set to expire
after the fiscal year 2010-11.
There will be external economies of scale on account of close proximity of other
handicraft exporters.
The Company will gain substantial cost advantage on account of better
productivity due to new machinery and modern setup. Improved coordination
within the Company will result due to all the departments being located at one
place rather than being scattered all over Jaipur.
Thus, the relocation of Opel Overseas will be profitable for the Company and is
recommended. The recommendations are based on the cost advantages which will help
the Company remain competitive and regain the high levels of profitability it was
enjoying prior to recession. There are concerns about the way the things will develop in
the future but the Company need to address the marketing issues separately and use
the new premises as a means to prove its commitment to quality. Using this report as a
base, the Company may commission a project feasibility analysis to understand the
move to the SEZ in greater detail.
Limitations and Future Research
The research was undertaken in an objective manner. However, there may be elements
of biasness due :
Lack of competitor analysis; there was reluctance on the part of the promoters of
the Mahindra SEZ, to provide details about the customers who had already
purchased the land in SEZ. So competitor analysis was not possible, and the

effect of how having competitors in the area will negatively impact the business
operations was not calculated
Hesitation of directors to provide accurate financial data. The owners did not wish
to provide accurate financials due to confidentiality issues. However the
estimations provided by them were cross checked to ensure their accuracy to a
large extent.
The tax policy is up for review in the year 2013 and any changes in the taxation
structure proposed by the government will affect the accuracy of the report and
consequently will affect the decision of the Company.
The report also did not undertake network analysis to estimate the time required before
the operations can be started in the SEZ and so it is recommended that the Company
undertakes project management which may use the elements from this report.
