Every month, new orders come in, Machines run, Paper reels move, Boards and inks get consumed.
But at month-end, Mr. Agrawal asks the same painful question —“So much work happened… but where is the profit?”
And the real thief behind this is — Dead Stock! Those paper reels, boards, inks, and packaging materials lying in the Warehouse for months, quietly eating up your money, space, and growth. The Hard Truth
Annual Turnover = ₹10 Crore Average Inventory = 40% (₹4 Crore worth of Paper & Materials)
Now think — if only 12–15% turns into Dead Stock?
Direct Loss = ₹60,00,000 (60 Lakh)!
And whose money is this? Mr. Agrawal’s. Now whose is it? Dead Stock’s.
Not supplier’s fault Not the client’s fault. It’s our fault — lack of system and proper monitoring. Real Story from a Printing Floor - Store Department एक दिन सुबह, Printing Press के मालिक Agrawal ji अचानक store check करने पहुंचे।
Agrawal ji (थोड़ा गुस्से में): “Sharma ji, ये paper reels aur boards 6 महीने से इधर ही पड़े हैं, use क्यों नहीं हुआ?
Store Incharge (घबराते हुए):“Sir, ये April में आए थे… naye orders के लिए naye materials आते गए,पुराने पीछे रह गए… aur dekhne में भी नहीं आए।”
Agrawal ji (हैरान):“मतलब ₹8–10 lakh का paper बस yahan dhool kha रहा है?”
और ये कहानी सिर्फ Agrawal ji की नहीं है —हर printing & packaging factory में यही hidden loss रोज़ हो रहा है।
Paper, Boards, Inks…जो दिखते नहीं, वही धीरे-धीरे dead stock बनकर profit खा जाते हैं। The Color-Coding Inventory Management
