Chapter 1.0: Introduction and Overview
1.1 Company Profile
Ashok Leyland is a commercial vehicle manufacturing company based in Chennai
India. Founded in 1948, the company is one of India's leading manufacturers of
commercial vehicles, such as trucks and buses, as well as emergency and military
vehicles. Operating six plants, Ashok Leyland also makes spare parts and engines
for industrial and marine applications. It sells about 60,000 vehicles and about
7,000 engines annually. It is the second largest commercial vehicle company in
India in the medium and heavy commercial vehicle (M&HCV) segment with a
market share of 28%. With passenger transportation options ranging from 19
seaters to 80 seaters, Ashok Leyland is a market leader in the bus segment. The
company claims to carry over 60 million passengers a day, more people than the
entire Indian rail network. In the trucks segment Ashok Leyland primarily
concentrates on the 16 ton to 25 ton range of trucks. However Ashok Leyland has
presence in the entire truck range starting from 7.5 tons to 49 tons. The joint
venture announced with of Japan would Nissan motors prove its presence in the
Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV) segment (<7.5 tons). An Ashok Leyland bus run by

Following the independence of India, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, India’s first Prime
Minister, persuaded Mr Raghunandan Saran, an industrialist, to enter automotive
manufacture. The company began in 1948 as Ashok Motors, to assemble Austin
cars. The company was renamed and started manufacturing commercial vehicles in
Financial Analysis of Ashok Leyland Page 1
1955 with equity participation by British Leyland. Today the company is the flagship
of the Hinduja Group, a British-based and Indian originated transnational
conglomerate.
Early products included the Leyland Comet bus which was a passenger body built
on a truck chassis, sold in large numbers to many operators, including Hyderabad
Road Transport, Ahmadabad Municipality, Travancore State Transport, Bombay
State Transport and Delhi Road Transport Authority. By 1963, the Comet was
operated by every State Transport Undertaking in India, and over 8,000 were in
service. The Comet was soon joined in production by a version of the Leyland
Tiger.
In 1968, production of the Leyland Titan ceased in Britain, but was restarted by
Ashok Leyland in India. The Titan PD3 chassis was modified, and a five speed
heavy duty constant-mesh gearbox utilized, together with the Ashok Leyland
version of the O.680 engine. The Ashok Leyland Titan was very successful, and
continued in production for many years.
Over the years, Ashok Leyland vehicles have built a reputation for reliability and
ruggedness. This was mainly due to the product design legacy carried over from
British Leyland.
Ashok Leyland had collaboration with the Japanese company Hino Motors from
whom the technology for the H-series engines was bought. Many indigenous
versions of H-series engine were developed with 4 and 6 cylinder and also
conforming to BS2 and BS3 emission norms in India. These engines proved to be
extremely popular with the customers primarily for their excellent fuel efficiency.
Most current models of Ashok Leyland come with H-series engines.

In 1987, the overseas holding by Land Rover Leyland International Holdings
Limited (LRLIH) was taken over by a joint venture between the Hinduja Group, the
Non-Resident Indian transnational group and IVECO Fiat SpA, part of the Fiat
Group and Europe's leading truck manufacturer. Ashok Leyland’s long-term plan to
become a global player by benchmarking global standards of technology and
quality was soon firmed up. Access to international technology and a US$200
million investment programme created a state-of-the-art manufacturing base to roll
out international class products. This resulted in Ashok Leyland launching the
'Cargo' range of trucks based on European Ford Cargo trucks. These vehicles used
Iveco engines and for the first time had factory-fitted cabs. Though the Cargo trucks
are no longer in production and the use of Iveco engine was discontinued, the cab
continues to be used on the 'ecomet' range of trucks.
In the journey towards global standards of quality, Ashok Leyland reached a major
milestone in 1993 when it became the first in India's automobile history to win the
ISO 9002 certification. The more comprehensive ISO 9001 certification came in
1994, QS 9000 in 1998 and ISO 14001 certification for all vehicle manufacturing
units in 2002. In 2006, Ashok Leyland became the first automobile company in India
to receive the TS16949 Corporate Certification. Editor’s note: This is part of a series
of articles peeking into clean car industries and car manufacturers of China, India,
South Korea and Germany. Among many other goals, Ashok Leyland aims to
expand its operations to penetrate into overseas markets. Included in the
company’s plans is to acquire smaller car manufacturers in China and in other
developing countries. In October 2006, Ashok Leyland bought a majority stake in
the Czech based- Avia. Called Avia Ashok Leyland Motors s.r.o., this will give
Ashok Leyland a channel into the competitive European market. According to the
company, in 2008 the joint venture sold 518 LCVs in Europe despite tough
economic conditions. Furthermore, the company will expand its product offers into
construction equipment, following a joint venture with John Deere. Newly formed in
June 2009, the John Deere partnership is a 50/50 split between the companies.
The company says negotiation is progressing on land acquisition, and the
production plans are in place. The venture is scheduled to start rolling out wheel
Financial Analysis of Ashok Leyland Page 3
loaders and backhoe loaders in October 2010. Aside from the full expansion
planned for the company, Ashok Leyland is also paying close attention to the
environment. In fact, they are one of the companies showing the strongest
commitment to environmental protection, utilizing eco-friendly processes in their
various plants. Even as they thrust into different directions, Ashok Leyland
maintains an R&D group that aims to uncover ways to make their vehicles more fuel
efficient and reduce emissions.
1.2 Current status
Ashok Leyland is the second technology leader in the commercial vehicles sector of
India. The history of the company has been punctuated by a number of
technological innovations, which have since become industry norms. It was the first
to introduce multi-axled trucks, full air brakes and a host of innovations like the rear
engine and articulated buses in India. In 1997, the company launched the country’s
first CNG bus and in 2002, developed the first Hybrid Electric Vehicle.
The company has also maintained its profitable track record for 60 years. The
company has increased its rated capacity to 105,000 vehicles per annum. Also
further investment plans including putting up two new plants - one in uttrakhand in
North India and a bus body building unit in middle-east Asia are fast afoot. It already
has a sizable presence in African countries like Nigeria, Ghana, Egypt and South
Africa.
Ashok Leyland has also entered into some significant partnerships, seizing growth
opportunities offered by diversification and globalization – with Continental
Corporation for automotive infotronics; with Alteams in Finland for high pressure die
casting and recently, with John Deere for construction equipment. In 2010 Ashok
Leyland acquired a 26% stake in the British bus manufacturer Optare, a company
based on the premises of a former British Leyland subsidiary C.H.Roe. In
December 2011 Ashok Leyland increased its stake in Optare to 75.1%.

The Dost Story
Ever since the beginning of human civilization, men have felt the need for a
trustworthy companion for their journeys and to take care of their transportation
requirements. This need led to the growth, spread and prosperity of civilization. For
years, men experimented with various means to transport their goods and travel.
Each time they came up with better and innovative results. From first cart on wheels
to bullock carts and horse carriages, to bicycles and rickshaws, men have come a
long way in making both transportation and life easier. In India, new entrepreneurs
are setting out to build their businesses. Their search for independence, their quest
for economic growth demands a trusted and reliable partner who will bravely travel
the distance with them.

available in the SCV (Small Commercial Vehicle) segment, promises a new
experience and technology at an increased payload of 1.25 Tons. It is equipped with
a state-of-the-art 55 hp, 3 cylinder, 1.5 litre TDCR engine that is tuned for fuel
economy as well as the driveability and gradeability required for Indian roads thanks
to the Common Rail technology and a substantial torque of 150Nm. Completing the
powertrain package is a five-speed manual gear box. DOST’s practicality is further
increased by its tight turning circle radius of just 4.8 m, designed to easily negotiate
both congested city roads and narrow rural lanes. The Euro-look cab is roomy,
comfortable with superior ergonomics and an in-built safety structure. The unique
Front Transverse leaf suspension matches ride quality with high durability. The Load
Sensing Proportioning Valve (LSPV) technology measures the weight on the load
body and applies the brake force accordingly to ensure stable braking irrespective of
whether the vehicle is fully loaded or empty. DOST will be available in three versions
with the top-end version featuring air-conditioning, power steering and fabric seats.

and blue. Dost is envisaged as ‘the’ next-generation product in the Indian LCV
industry, rapidly evolving on the lines of the passenger car segment. It is meant for
discerning customers who want to exert their economic and social status. It is a

accounted for on purchase of raw materials and / or export sales.
P. Contingent liabilities
Depending on the facts of each case and after due evaluation of relevant legal
aspects, the Company makes a provision when there is a present obligation as a
result of a past event where the outflow of economic resources is probable and a
reliable estimate of the amount of obligation can be made. The disclosure is made
for all possible or present obligations that may but probably will not require outflow
of resources as contingent liability in the financial statement.
Q. Use of estimates
In preparing Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in India, management is required to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period; actual
results could differ from those estimates.
R. Earnings per share
Financial Analysis of Ashok Leyland Page 27
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit or loss for the
period attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of equity
shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of equity
shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for events of bonus issue and
share split. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share, the net profit
or loss for the period attributable to equity shareholders and the weighted average
number of shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of all
dilutive potential equity shares.
S. Impairment of assets
The Company on an annual basis makes an assessment of any indicator that may
lead to impairment of assets. If any such indication exists, the Company estimates
the recoverable amount of the assets. If such recoverable amount is less than the
carrying amount, then the carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount by
treating the difference between them as impairment loss and is charged to the profit
and loss account.
TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS
The analysis of financial statement consists of a study of relationship and trends to
determine whether or not the financial position and results of operating as well as
the financial progress of the company are satisfactory or unsatisfactory. The
analysis of facts and related data was important and a number of techniques of
analysis are:
1) balance sheet
2) profit & loss accounts
3) cash flow statement
4) fund flow statement
5) ratio analysis
Financial Analysis of Ashok Leyland Page 28
2.2 BALANCE SHEET
A financial statement that summarizes a company's assets, liabilities
and shareholders' equity at a specific point in time. These three balance sheet
segments give investors an idea as to what the company owns and owes, as well as
the amount invested by the shareholders. It's called a balance sheet because the
two sides balance out. This makes sense: a company has to pay for all the things it
has (assets) by either borrowing money (liabilities) or getting it from shareholders
(shareholders' equity). Each of the three segments of the balance sheet will have
many accounts within it that document the value of each. Accounts such as cash,
inventory and property are on the asset side of the balance sheet, while on the
liability side there are accounts such as accounts payable or long-term debt.
The exact accounts on a balance sheet will differ by company and by industry, as
there is no one set template that accurately accommodates for the differences
between different types of businesses.

2.3PROFIT & LOSS ACCOUNT
A financial statement that summarizes the revenues, costs and expenses
incurred during a specific period of time - usually a fiscal quarter or year. These
records provide information that shows the ability of a company to generate profit
by increasing revenue and reducing costs. The P&L statement is also known as a
"statement of profit and loss", an "income statement" or an "income and expense
statement".The statement of profit and loss follows a general form as seen in this
example. It begins with an entry for revenue and subtracts from revenue the costs
of running the business, including cost of goods sold, operating expenses,
tax expense and interest expense. The bottom line (literally and figuratively) is net
income (profit). Many templates can be found online for free, that can be used in
creating your profit and loss, or income statement. The balance sheet, income
statement and statement of cash flows are the most important financial statements
produced by a company. While each is important in its own right, they are meant
to be analyzed together

2.4CASH FLOW STATEMENT
3 Complementing the balance sheet and income statement, the cash flow
statement (CFS), a mandatory part of a company's financial reports since 1987,
records the amounts of cash and cash equivalents entering and leaving a
company. The CFS allows investors to understand how a company's operations
are running, where its money is coming from, and how it is being spent. Here you
will learn how the CFS is structured and how to use it as part of your analysis of
a company.
1. It is a statement that depicts change in cash position from one period to
another
2. A revenue or expense stream that changes a cash account over a given
period. Cash inflows usually arise from one of three activities - financing,
operations or investing - although this also occurs as a result of donations
Financial Analysis of Ashok Leyland Page 32
or gifts in the case of personal finance. Cash outflows result from
expenses or investments. This holds true for both business and personal
finance.
3. An accounting statement called the "statement of cash flows", which
shows the amount of cash generated and used by a company in a given
period. It is calculated by adding noncash charges (such as depreciation)
to net income after taxes. Cash flow can be attributed to a specific project,
or to a business as a whole. Cash flow can be used as an indication of a
company's financial strength

2.5 DIVIDEND
1. A distribution of a portion of a company's earnings, decided by the board of
directors, to a class of its shareholders. The dividend is most often quoted in
terms of the dollar amount each share receives (dividends per share). It can
also be quoted in terms of a percent of the current market price, referred to as
dividend yield.Also referred to as "Dividend per Share (DPS)."
2. Mandatory distributions of income and realized capital gains made to
mutual fund investors.
3. Dividends may be in the form of cash, stock or property. Most secure and
stable companies offer dividends to their stockholders. Their share prices
might not move much, but the dividend attempts to make up for this. High-
growth companies rarely offer dividends because all of their profits are
reinvested to help sustain higher-than-average growth.
4. Mutual funds pay out interest and dividend income received from their
portfolio holdings as dividends to fund shareholders. In addition, realized
capital gains from the portfolio's trading activities are generally paid out
(capital gains distribution) as a year-end dividend.
Dividend Summary
For the year ending March 2011, Ashok Leyland has declared an equity dividend of
200.00% amounting to Rs 2 per share. At the current share price of Rs 27.40 these
results in a dividend yield of 7.3%.

dividends for the last 5 years.

2.6 RATIOS
The ratio analyses concentrates on inter-relationship among the figures appearing in
the aforementioned four financial statements. The ratio analysis helps the
management to analyses the past performance of the firm and to make further
projection. Ratio analysis allows interested parties like shareholder, investors,
creditors, Government and analysts to make an evaluation of certain aspects of a
firm performance. Ratio analysis is a process of comparison of one figure against
another, which makes a ratio and the appraisal of the ratios to make proper analyses
about the strength and weakness of the firms operations. The calculation of ratios is
a relatively easy and simple task but the proper analyses and interpretation of the
ratios can be made only by the skilled analyst. While interpreting the financial
information, the analyst has to be careful in limitations imposed by the accounting
concepts and methods of valuation. Information of non-financial nature will also be
taken into consideration before a meaningful analyses is made. Ratio analysis is
extremely helpful in providing valuable insight into a company s financial picture.

areas in which a particular business is competitively advantaged or disadvantages
Financial Analysis of Ashok Leyland Page 35
through comparing ratios to those of other business of the same size within the
same industry.
Classification of Ratio
