EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This project named An Analysis and Comparative Study of Financial Statements was

carried out at Kalyani Steels Ltd to analyze and understand financial feasibility of the

company in terms of liquidity, turnover, solvency, profitability etc. by using Ratio

Analysis technique.

I chose to do this project at Kalyani Steels Ltd because it is a leading manufacturer of

Carbon and Alloy steels and an important constituent of the over $ 1.2 billion Punebased Kalyani group. The company was established way back in 1973 mainly to cater

to in-house requirements of forging quality steels. Over the years the Kalyani Steels

Ltd is upgrading its technology and infrastructure to justify its mission statement,

Better Steel Through Better Technology .

The Ratio Analysis technique is the process of identifying the financial strength and

weakness of the firm by properly establishing relationship between the items of the

balance-sheet and the profit and loss account because the figures recorded in the

financial statements are absolutely incapable of revealing the soundness or otherwise of

a Company s financial position or performance. Thus the technique of Ratio Analysis

has been used which is supposed to be powerful tool for financial statements.

In Ratio Analysis technique a ratio is used as a benchmark for evaluating the financial

position and the performance of the firm.



6

OBJECTIVES

1. To obtain a true insight into financial position of the company.

2. To make comparative study of financial statements of different years.

3. To draw the correct picture of the financial operations of the company in

terms of liquidity, solvency, turnover, profitability etc.

4. To find out the reasons for unsatisfactory results.

Kalyani Steels commissions its first 7.5 MW Captive Power Plant

The plant to generate power equivalent to # 52 million units per annum

Kalyani Steels Limited, a leading manufacturer of Carbon and Alloy Steels and a part

of the over $ 1.2 billion Kalyani Group has commissioned its 7.5 MW capacity PowerPlant.

A company that uses blast furnaces for producing steel has set up the plant for captive

consumption by using blast furnace gas generated by its mini blast furnaces. The virtue

of heat content is utilized to generate electric power.

The projected power requirement of the integrated steel plant is more than 120 Million

units per annum. Setting up our own power plant gives us the advantage to be in a

position to control costs and generate power economically. It will reduce reliance on

the state electricity grid as well as bring down the input cost of steel production and

increase the competitiveness of the end products.

THEORITICAL BACKGROUND

MEANING OF RATIO: -

A ratio is a simple arithmetical expression of the relationship of one number to

another. According to Accountants Handbook by Wixon Kell and Bedford, a ratio is

an expression of the quantitative relationship between two numbers . In short it can be

defined as the indicated quotient of two mathematical expressions. The ratios can be

expressed in 1) Percentages 2) fraction and 3) Proportion of numbers.

MEANING OF RATIO ANALYSIS: -

Ratio Analysis is a technique of analysis and interpretation of financial statements.it is defined as the systematic use of ratios to interpret the financial statements so that

the strengths and weaknesses of a firm as well as its historical performances and current

financial condition can be determined. There are a number of ratios which can be

calculated from the information given in the financial statements, but the analysts has to

select the appropriate date and calculate only a few appropriate ratios from the same

keeping in mind the objectives of analysis.

The following four steps involved in the ratio analysis: -

1. Selection of relevant data from financial statements depending upon financial

analysis.

2. Calculation of appropriate ratios.

3. Comparison of the calculated ratios of the same firm in the past or the ratios

developed from projected financial statements to the ratios of some other firms

or the comparison with ratios of the industry to which firm belonged.

4. Interpretation of ratios.



19

INTERPRETATION OF RATIOS: -

The interpretation of ratios is an important factor. Though calculation of ratios is

also important but it is only a clerical task whereas interpretation needs skill,

intelligence and foresightedness. The impacts of factors such as price level changes,

change in accounting policies, window dressing etc should be kept in mind when

attempting to interpret ratios. The interpretation of ratios can be made in following

ways: -

1. Intra firm comparison: - Here the ratios of one organization may be compared

with the ratios of the same organization for the various years either the previous

years or the future years.

2. Inter firm comparison: - The ratios of one organization may be compared with

the ratios of the other organization in the same industry and such comparison

will be meaningful as the various organization, in the same industry may be

facing similar kinds of financial problems.

3. The ratios of an organization may be compared with some standards, which

may be supposed to be the thumb-rule for the evaluation of the performance.

CLASIFICATION OF RATIOS: -

The ratios may be classified under various ways, which may use various criterions

to do the same. However for the convenience purpose, the ratios are classified under

following groups.

1. Liquidity group

2. Turnover group

3. Profitability group

4. Solvency group and

5. Miscellaneous group



20

LIQUIDITY GROUP:

The ratios computed under this group indicate the short-term position of the

organization and also indicate the efficiency with which the working capital is being

used. Commercial banks and short-term creditors may be basically interested in the

ratios falling under this group. Two most important ratios may be calculated under this

group.

1) Current Assets: -

It is calculate as, Current Assets

Current Liabilities

Current ratio indicates the backing available to current liabilities in the form of

current assets. In other words, higher current ratio indicates that there are sufficient

assets available with the organization, which can be converted in the form of cash. A

current ratio of 2:1 is supposed to be standard and ideal.

2) Liquid Ratio or Acid Test Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Liquid Assets

Liquid Liabilities

Here liquid assets include all assets except inventory and p/p exps and liquid

liabilities except overdraft or cash credit or o/s exps.

Liquid ratio indicates the backing available to liquid liabilities in the form of

liquid assets. The term liquid assets indicate the assets, which can be converted in the

form of cash without any reduction in the value. Almost immediately whereas the term

liquid liabilities which are required to be paid almost immediately. In other words, a

higher liquid ratio indicates that there are sufficient assets available with the

organization, which can be converted in the form of cash almost immediately to pay off

those liabilities, which are to be paid off almost immediately. As such higher the liquid

ratio better will be the situation. A liquid ratio of 1:1 is supposed to be standard and

ideal.



21

TURNOVER GROUP:

Ratios computed under this group indicate the efficiency of the organization to

use the various kinds of assets by converting them in the form of sales. Under this

group the following classification of ratios are made.

1) Fixed Assets Turnover Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Net SalesFixed Assets

A high fixed assets turnover ratio indicates the capability of the organization to

achieve maximum sales with the minimum investment in fixed assets. It indicates thatthe fixed assets are turned over in the form of sales more number of times.

2) Current Assets Turnover Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Net SalesCurrent Assets

A high current assets turnover ratio indicates the capability of the organization

to achieve maximum sales with the maximum investment in current assets. It indicates

that the current assets are turned over in the form of sales more number of times.

3) Working Capital Turnover Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Net SalesWorking Capital

A high working capital turnover ratio indicates the capability of the

organization to achieve maximum sales with the minimum investment in the workingcapital. It indicates that working capital is turned over in the form of sales more number

of times.

4) Inventory or Stock Turnover Ratio: -



22

It is calculated as, Cost of Goods Sold

Avg. Inventory

A high inventory turnover ratio indicates that maximum sales turnover isachieved with the minimum investment in inventory. As such as a general rule, high

inventory turnover ratio is desirable.

5) Debtors Turnover Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Net Credit SalesClosing Sundry Debtors

This ratio indicates the speed at which the sundry debtors are converted in

the form of cash. However the intention is not correctly achieved by making the

calculation in this way. As such this ratio is normally supported by the calculation

period, which is calculated as below.

a) Calculation of Daily Sales: -

It is calculated as, Net Credit Sales No of Working Days

b) Calculation of Collection Period: -

It is calculated as, Closing Sundry DebtorsDaily Sales

The average collection period as computed above should be compared with

the normal credit period extended to the customers. If the average collection period is

more than the normal credit period allowed to the customers, it may indicate over

investment in debtors which may be the result of over extension of credit period,

liberalization of credit term, ineffective collection procedure and so on.



23

6) Capital Turnover Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Sales

Capital Employed

This ratio indicates the efficiency of the organization with which the capital

employed is being utilized. A high capital turnover ratio indicates the capability of the

organization to achieve maximum sales with minimum amount of capital employed. As

such higher the capital turnover better will be the situation.

SOLVENCY GROUP

Ratios computed under this group indicate the long-term financial prospects

of the company. The shareholders debenture holders and other lenders of long-term

finance/ term loan may be basically under this group. Following ratios may be

computed under this group.

1) Debt-equity Ratio: -

It is calculated as, External Liabilities . Shareholders Fund

Debt-equity ratio indicates the state of shareholders or owners in the

organization vis-à-vis that of the creditors. It indicates the cushion available to the

creditors on liquidation of the organization. A high debt-equity ratio may indicate that

financial status of the creditors is more than that of the owners. A very high debt-equity

ratio may make the proportion of investment in the organization a risky one. On the

other hand a very low debt equity rate may mean that the borrowing capacity of the

organization is being underutilized.



24

2) Proprietary Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Total Assets Owners Fund

This ratio indicates the extent to which the owner s funds are sunk in

different kinds of assets. If the owner s fund exceeds fixed assets, it indicates that a part

owners fund invested in the current assets also and if owners fund are less than fixed

assets it indicates that the creditors finance a part of fixed assets either by long term or

short term.

3) Capital Employed Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Fixed Assets *100

Capital Employed

This ratio indicates the extent to which the long-term funds are sunk in

fixed assets.

4) Interest Coverage Ratio: -

It is calculated as, PBIT

Interest Charges

This ratio indicates protection available to the lenders of long-term

capital in the form of funds available to pay the interest charges i.e. profits. Normally a

high ratio will desirable but too high a ratio may indicate underutilization of the

borrowing capacity of the organization whereas too low a ratio may indicate excessive

long-term borrowings or inefficient operation.



25

PROFITABILITY GROUP

1) Gross Profit Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Gross Profit *100Net Sales

The gross profit ratio indicates the relation between production cost

and sales and efficiency with which the goods are produced or purchased. A high gross

profit ratio may indicate that the organization is able to produce or purchase at a

relatively lower cost.

2) Net Profit Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Net Profit after Taxes *100

Net Sales

The net profit ratio indicates that portion of sales available to the owners

after the consideration of all types of expenses and costs either operating or non-

operating or normal or abnormal. A high net profit ratio indicates higher profitability of

the business.

3) Operating Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Mfg COGS + operating exps*100Net Sales

This ratio indicates the percentage of net sales, which is absorbed by the

operating cost. A high operating ratio indicates that only a small margin of sales is

available to meet the expenses in the form of interest, dividend and operating exps. As

such low operating ratio will always be desirable.



26

OVERALL PROFITABILITY GROUP

1) Return on Assets: -

It is calculated as, Net Profit *100Assets

Return on assets measures the profitability of the investment in a firm.

As such higher return on assets will always be preferred. However Return on assets

does not indicate the profitability of various sources of funds, which finance total

assets.

2) Return on Capital Employed: -

It is calculated as, Net Profit after taxes+Int on Long Term Loans*100Capital Employed

Return on capital employed measure4s the profitability of the capital

employed in the business. A high return on capital employed indicates a better and

profitable use of long-term funds of owners and creditors. As such a high return on

capital employed is preferred.

3) Return on Shareholders Funds: -

It is calculated as, Net Profit after Taxes*100

Total Shareholders Funds

This ratio indicates the profitability of a firm in relation to the fund

supplied by the shareholders



27

MISCELLANEOUS GROUP

1) Capital Gearing Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Fixed income-bearing securitiesEquity Capital

A high capital-gearing ratio indicates that in the capital structure, fixed income bearing

securities are more in comparison to the equity capital in that case the Company is said

to be highly geared. On the other hand, if fixed income-bearing securities are less as

compared to equity capital the company is said to be lowly geared.

2) Earning Per Share: -

It is calculated as, Net Profit after tax and dividend

Number of equity shares o/s

It is widely used ratio to measure the profit available to the equity

shareholders on a per share basis. As such increasing Earning Per Share may

indicate the increasing trend of current profits per equity share.

3) Dividend Payout Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Dividend Per Share *100

Earning Per Share

It measures the relationship between the earnings belonging to the

equity shareholders and the amount finally paid to them by way of dividend. It

indicates the policy of management to pay cash dividend.



28

ADVANTAGES OF RATIOS

1. Ratios simplify the comprehension of financial statements. They tell the whole

story as a heap of financial data is condensed in them. They indicate the

changes in the financial condition of the business.

2. They act as an index of the efficiency of enterprise. As such they serve as an

instrument of management control. It is an instrument for diagnosis of the

financial health of an enterprise. The efficiency of the various individual units

similarly situated can be judged through inter-firm comparisons.

3. The ratio analysis can be if invaluable aid to management in the discharge of its

basic functions of forecasting, planning, co-ordination, communication and

control. A study of the trend of strategic ratio may help the management in this

respect. Past ratios indicate trends in cost, sales, profit and other relevant facts.

4. The ratio analysis provides data for inter-firm comparison or intra-firm

comparison. Comparison cannot be made with absolute figures. Net profit of

one firm cannot be compared with the net profit of the other firm. But the

percentages of net profits can be compared to evaluate the performance.

Similarly performance and efficiency of different departments in the same firm

can be compared with the help of ratios. 5. Investment decisions can at times be based on the conditions revealed by certain

ratios.

6. They make it possible to estimate the other figure when one figure is known.



29

LIMITITIONS OF RATIO ANALYSIS

Though ratio analysis technique has got number of advantages, it attracts equal

number of disadvantages too. Some of important advantages are as follows:

1) The ratios of the other organization May not be readily available.

2) Different accounting policies may be followed by the constituent organization

in the industry.

3) The constituent organization in the same industry may vary from each other in

terms of age, location, extent of automation, quality of management and so on

4) The technique of ratio analysis may prove to be inadequate in some situation if

there is difference of opinions regarding the interpretation of certain items while

computing certain ratios.

5) As the ratios are computed on the basis of financial statements, the basic

limitation, which is applicable to the financial statements, is equally applicable

in case of the technique of ratio analysis also.

Thus the ratio analysis points out the financial condition of business whetherit is very strong, good, questionable or poor and enables the management to take

necessary steps.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

1) DATA COLLECTION

a) Primary Data: -

Primary data related to the project was collected from the discussion and

interaction with the senior employees and executives in the organization from

Accounts and Finance department.

b) Secondary Data: -

Secondary data was collected from the documents, which were in printedforms like annual reports, pamphlets, reference books based on Financial

Management and through websites.

METHODOLOGY FOR ANALYSIS

The methodology opted for carrying out project was by way of collection of data

from the company s annual reports for the past three years i.e. from 2003-2004 to

2005-2006, for the calculation of ratios. The theory related to ratios was gatheredfrom various financial management books, which served the purpose of calculation

and analysis of ratios. Further based on the above statements ratios related to

liquidity, turnover, solvency, profitability and over profitability groups and

miscellaneous groups have been calculated and interpreted in an intra firm

comparison method. Similarly the ratios have been presented in graphical format to

have clear understanding of it during three financial years and changes in it.

Significance: -

This ratio is calculated for knowing short term solvency of the organization.

This ratio indicates the solvency of the business i.e. ability to meet the liabilities of

the business as and when they fall due. The Current Assets are the sources from

which the current liabilities are to be met. Certain authorities have suggested that in

order to ensure solvency of a concern current assets should be twice the current

liabilities and therefore this ratio is known as 2:1 ratio . However it depends upon

the nature of industry. The standard Current Ratio applicable to the Indian

industries is 1.33:1.

sufficient assets to pay off short term liabilities as and when they fall due. The

company has maintained its short term solvency through out the years and it is

improving its short term solvency status which is appreciable.

current ratio, this is a more rigorous test of liquidity than the Current Asset Ratio

and when used in conjunction with it, gives a better picture of the firms ability to

meet its short term debts out of its short term assets. An Acid Test Ratio of 1:1 is

considered to be ideal and standard.

Here the Acid Ratios of Kalyani Steels Ltd through out the years considered

indicates that it has adequate assets which can be converted in the form of cash

almost immediately to pay off those liabilities which are to be paid off immediately.

It must be remembered that the company is improving its Acid Test Ratio year by

indicates whether the fixed assets are being fully utilized. It is an important measure

of the efficient and profit earning capacity of the business. Normally standard ratio

is taken as five times.

The financial year 2003-04 had not so good fixed asset turnover ratio. The

financial year 2004-05 had an appreciable fixed assets turnover ratio indicating

fixed assets are turned over more number of times. This was due to around 72%

growth in sales. This shows better asset management policy as compared to the past

year. The same ratio came down to 3.12 times in the financial year 2005-06 due to

fall in sales by around 31.48%.

The financial year 2003-04 and 2004-05 saw excellent ratio as the company

was able to achieve maximum sales with less investment in working capital which

shows better working capital management policy. It must be remembered that

working capital ratio has been increasing through out the years but the financial

year 2005-06 failed to maintain the past records due to fall in sales by 31.48%. The

year 2005-06 had heavy investments in working capital which shows rise in

sales more number of times. As such higher the capital turnover better will be

situation.

The financial year 2004-05 had acceptable ratio because it had better sales as

compared to other two years. Due to addition or purchase of fixed assets and heavy

investments in working capital due to rise in activity, the capital turnover ratio for

2005-06 came down as compared previous years.

A low inventory turnover may reflect dull business, overinvestment in

inventory or accumulation of absolute and unsaleable goods. A high inventory

turnover indicates relatively lower amount of working capital locked in inventories.

The financial year 2003-04 had excellent inventory turnover ratio locking up

smaller part of funds in inventory. The company had low inventory turnover ratio

for the year 2004-05 thus indicating over investment in inventory but it has

improved in the financial year 2006 indicating less investment in inventory.

Significance: -

It is a measure of financial strength of a concern. Lower the ratio greater the

security available to the creditors. A satisfactory current ratio and ample working

capital may not always be a guarantee against insolvency if the total liabilities are

inordinately large.

The purpose of this ratio is to derive an idea of the amount of capital supplied

be the owners and of assets cushion available to creditors on liquidation.

Generally 1:2 ratio is acceptable, but the ratio of at least 1:1 is desirable as banks

even do accept this. The greater the interest of the owners as compared with that of

the creditors, the more satisfactory is the financial structure of the business because

in such a situation the management is less handicapped by interest charges and debt

repayment requirements. A company having a stable profit can afford to operate on

a relatively high debt-equity ratio; whereas in the case of a company having an

unstable profit, a high debt-equity ratio reflects a speculative situation. Too much

reliance on external equities may indicate undercapitalization, whereas too much

reliance on internal equities may lead to over-capitalization.

All the financial years considered has debt-equity ratio more than 1:1, which is

appreciable and acceptable indicating equal amount of interest of the owners ascompared with that of creditors.

Significance: -

This ratio is normally a test of strength of credit-worthiness of the concern. To

the extent the percentage of liability increase or the percentage of capital dwindles,

the credit strength of the concern deteriorates. A high proprietary ratio is however a

frequently indicative of over-capitalization and an exercise investment in fixed

assets. A low proprietary ratio on the other hand is a symptom of

undercapitalization and an excessive use of creditors funds to finance the business.

The financial year 2003-04 had good proprietary ratio as it indicates assets are

financed to the extent of 69% by the owners funds and the balance is financed by

the outsiders. The year 2004-05 had fall in proprietary ratio but in the year 2005-06

the company has improved due to rise in reserve and surplus due to appreciable

profits in the last financial year.

Significance: -

Normally a proprietor should provide all the funds required to purchase fixed

assets. If the capital employed ratio exceeds 100%, it indicates that the company

has used short-term funds for acquiring fixed assets, which policy is not desirable.

When the amount of proprietor funds exceeds the value of fixed assets i.e when the

percentage is less that 100, a part of the net working capital is supplied by the

shareholders, provided that there are no other non-current assets. Though it is not

possible to lay down a rigid standard as regards the percentage of capital which

should be invested in fixed assets in each industry there always is a maxim which

should not be exceeded so that the harmony among the fixed assets, debtors and

stock is not disturbed. The ratio should generally be 65%.

It should be remembered that all of the financial years studied had cap

employed ratio below 65% which also suggest that the company had equally funded

for working capital for current assets through long term funds which has been

accepted principle of financial management.

is calculated after adding non-operating incomes, like interest, dividends on

investments etc to operating profits and deducting non-operating expenses such as

loss on sale of old assets, provisions for legal damage etc. from such profits.

The ratio is widely used as a measure of over-all profitability and is very

useful to the proprietors. Reading along with the operating ratio it gives an idea of

the efficiency as well as profitability of the business to a limited extent.

The company has improved its net profits by 6.17 times in the year 2005-06

from the 2003-04 which is appreciable which shows considerable proportion of net

sales to the owners and shareholders after all costs, charges and expenses including

income tax, have been deducted.

Significance: -

The ratio is a means of analysis of the capital structure. If the proportion of

preference shares and loan capital is high, or where the proportion of ordinary share

capital is low, capital is said to be highly geared and reverse is the position in low

gearing. Low gearing indicates that the equity share capital is not paid an adequate

return because the profits are swallowed up by the high charges in the form of

interest and dividends. Capital gearing signifies the process of maintaining a desired

and appropriate gear ratio in an enterprise. When inflationary conditions are

expected, high gearing is to be employed and in the period marked by trade

depression, low gearing should be employed.

Here the company is geared which indicates that it attempts to employ fixed

income bearing securities in the capital structure with an intention to increase the

earnings of the shareholders.
