  • High consumption of energy

IMPACT OF RUSSIAN UKRAINE WAR

The Russia-Ukraine war has created an impact on commodities, the economy, and also on the environment. Disruption of the global supply chain market is also the impact of Russia Ukraine war. The transportation of goods which was earlier done in huge amounts was reduced and this led to an increase in the prices of raw materials. The Indian Paper industry imports its raw materials majorly from Russia, but due to war, there was a delay in the import of raw materials. The war led to an increase of around 40 percent rise in the prices of raw materials. Before the war started the price of paper was 70000 Rupees per ton, this price after the war was increased to around 100000 Rupees per ton.

IMPACT OF ONGOING RECESSION

The price of waste paper talking about India has reached its lowest in five months, due to overcapacity of production and global damage caused by the recession.  There is no hope for the increase of the market which is declining day by day in the recession period.

Small vendors have stopped the collection of waste paper due to decreased price of waste paper. Despite the fall in demand in the recessionary period, the demand is likely to go up in upcoming years as India is slowly becoming a global publishing and printing industry.

IMPACT OF COVID-19:

Covid 19 has impacted on Price, Demand, and Supply Chain of the paper and paperboard packaging market. Heavy competition was seen amongst small and big companies on pricing, because OF COVID-19. Demand for raw materials also fell resulting in the downfall of the overall market. The rise in the price of raw materials, also the low stock available with the wholesalers for the production has affected many small- and large-scale industries, which affected the overall paper and paperboard packaging market. The food industry and e-commerce industries have more demand for paper packaging boxes. Also, the restaurants and offices were shut down during Covid-19 due to which the need for canteens and food products was minimized which affected the paper and paperboard packaging market.

The entire supply chain was stopped due to the spread of coronavirus. This led to late production, and low production due to less demand in the market. There was also a shortage of labor due to the manufacturing capacity decreased. The supply chain disruption also increased the cost of production. Due to the late availability of raw materials.

An accurate research report requires proper strategizing as well as implementation. There are multiple factors involved in the completion of good and accurate research report and selecting the best methodology to compete the research is the toughest part. Since the research reports we provide play a crucial role in any company’s decision-making process, therefore we at SNS Insider always believe that we should choose the best method which gives us results closer to reality. This allows us to reach at a stage wherein we can provide our clients best and accurate investment to output ratio.

Each report that we prepare takes a timeframe of 350-400 business hours for production. Starting from the selection of titles through a couple of in-depth brain storming session to the final QC process before uploading our titles on our website we dedicate around 350 working hours. The titles are selected based on their current market cap and the foreseen CAGR and growth.

 

The 5 steps process:

Step 1: Secondary Research:

Secondary Research or Desk Research is as the name suggests is a research process wherein, we collect data through the readily available information. In this process we use various paid and unpaid databases which our team has access to and gather data through the same. This includes examining of listed companies’ annual reports, Journals, SEC filling etc. Apart from this our team has access to various associations across the globe across different industries. Lastly, we have exchange relationships with various university as well as individual libraries.

Secondary Research

Step 2: Primary Research

When we talk about primary research, it is a type of study in which the researchers collect relevant data samples directly, rather than relying on previously collected data.  This type of research is focused on gaining content specific facts that can be sued to solve specific problems. Since the collected data is fresh and first hand therefore it makes the study more accurate and genuine.

We at SNS Insider have divided Primary Research into 2 parts.

Part 1 wherein we interview the KOLs of major players as well as the upcoming ones across various geographic regions. This allows us to have their view over the market scenario and acts as an important tool to come closer to the accurate market numbers. As many as 45 paid and unpaid primary interviews are taken from both the demand and supply side of the industry to make sure we land at an accurate judgement and analysis of the market.

This step involves the triangulation of data wherein our team analyses the interview transcripts, online survey responses and observation of on filed participants. The below mentioned chart should give a better understanding of the part 1 of the primary interview.

Primary Research

Part 2: In this part of primary research the data collected via secondary research and the part 1 of the primary research is validated with the interviews from individual consultants and subject matter experts.

Consultants are those set of people who have at least 12 years of experience and expertise within the industry whereas Subject Matter Experts are those with at least 15 years of experience behind their back within the same space. The data with the help of two main processes i.e., FGDs (Focused Group Discussions) and IDs (Individual Discussions). This gives us a 3rd party nonbiased primary view of the market scenario making it a more dependable one while collation of the data pointers.

Step 3: Data Bank Validation

Once all the information is collected via primary and secondary sources, we run that information for data validation. At our intelligence centre our research heads track a lot of information related to the market which includes the quarterly reports, the daily stock prices, and other relevant information. Our data bank server gets updated every fortnight and that is how the information which we collected using our primary and secondary information is revalidated in real time.

Data Bank Validation

Step 4: QA/QC Process

After all the data collection and validation our team does a final level of quality check and quality assurance to get rid of any unwanted or undesired mistakes. This might include but not limited to getting rid of the any typos, duplication of numbers or missing of any important information. The people involved in this process include technical content writers, research heads and graphics people. Once this process is completed the title gets uploader on our platform for our clients to read it.

Step 5: Final QC/QA Process:

This is the last process and comes when the client has ordered the study. In this process a final QA/QC is done before the study is emailed to the client. Since we believe in giving our clients a good experience of our research studies, therefore, to make sure that we do not lack at our end in any way humanly possible we do a final round of quality check and then dispatch the study to the client.
