Forces are combining to disrupt old orders and create exciting new opportunities. We are on the cusp of a digital-led new industrial revolution. Digital technologies give us unprecedented access allowing us to track our operations at levels previously unavailable. This helps to understand customers better, and to deliver products and services more tightly aligned to their individual needs. At the same time, we are experiencing a moment of change, as a young generation born, into a globalised world, takes its place as employees, wage earners, consumers and decision-makers. Those young people are reimagining many aspects of life. They are health conscious and demand healthier food products. They want to deal with companies that share their vision and can show a sense of purpose beyond commercial prot. They discard traditional markers of success. So we nd ourselves at a moment of transformation. It is exciting and has immense potential. At Tata Chemicals, we have prepared ourselves for this new era by restructuring our portfolio and investing in the industries of tomorrow. We have taken decisions that allow us to participate in this transformation and to begin a new era of growth. We believe it has the potential to benet all stakeholders. This integrated annual report explains in detail what we have achieved and the growth we anticipate. 4 Annual Report 2017-18 Spotlight Global footprint Financial performance Our global supply chain allows us to service our customers eectively across the world.

  • Worksheet 5.3
    Worksheet 5.3 The signifi cance of salt Salt is an absolutely crucial commodity in our lives. Historically it was of such great importance that people were paid with salt. Th is is the origin of the word ‘salary’ which obviously we now receive in money when we are working. Th e importance of salt lay in its use to preserve food: a particularly important property in times when there was no access to refrigeration. Th e economic importance of salt was so signifi cant that governments used to impose ‘salt taxes’. Perhaps the most infamous of these was the one the British imposed in India. In a deeply signifi cant move to assert independence, Gandhi led a famous march to the sea in direct peaceful opposition to the British salt tax. On arrival at the sea, Gandhi and his followers broke the British law by making their own salt from seawater. Th e following is an extract from a report in the Guardian [a British newspaper] of 13 March 1930. At 6.30 yesterday morning ‘Mahatma’ Gandhi left Ahmedabad on foot at the head of a band of civil resistance volunteers on a 100-mile march to the sea at Jalalpur, on the Gulf of Cambay. He thus signalled the beginning of civil disobedience or non-violent defi ance of the British administration, and brought into action the new Congress policy of Purna Swaraj, or complete independence. For a fortnight Gandhi’s march is intended to be only a demonstration. Th en, when he expects to be at the sea, he will begin to produce salt from brine, and so infringe the Government salt monopoly, defying the Government to arrest and punish him.
