G.Malyadri,andB.SudheerKumar(2013)found15atIndiansugarindustryis

produce gur and khandsari, the fess refined forms sugar. The sector has a number of
transformational opportunities. These opportunities have remained largely untapped. The

analysisofIndianSugarIndustryfromRatiosPortOfView,ProfitabilityRatio,Turnover
Ratio.

Pany (1991) has sought to identify factors which influence corporate economic
performance. Important industrial characteristics which have been used by industrial
organization researchers as the determinants of financial performance are concentration,
market share, industry growth, research and development expenditure, advertisement
intensity,andsizeoffirmsintheindustry.Thesecharacteristicsmayallowfirmstobeina
better position to implement their strategies successfully and profitability. Consequently,
firmsmayreflectbetterperformanceonaccountoffavorableindustrialcharacteristics.

Attwood, D. W. (1995) found the reasons why cooperative sugar factories in

Maharashtra,Indiaaregiven:(1)successfulareexamined.Twocontradictoryexplanations
aregenerallythecooperativespiritalreadyprevalentinthevillagecommunitiesprovideda
sound basis for formal cooperatives; (2) village life is governed by a few wealthy and
powerful leaders who also control the cooperatives. Both explanations are rejected. It is
arguedthatdespiteahighlevelofinequalityinthepastandthepresent,informalcooperation
has flourished in the villages. The success of the sugar cooperatives rests on the long
standing habit forming selective alliances to overcome serious technical obstacles in
production.Thelargefarmersdependonthecanesuppliedbythesmallfarmerstomaintain
