INTRODUCTION

MILLAT TRACTORS Ltd. MCOM 2nd(M)

Millat Tractors Limited (MTL) is an ISO 9002 certified company for its Assembly Plants (Tractor Assembly, Engine Assembly, Industrial/Agricultural Products), Material Testing and Gauge Control Laboratory. It is Pakistans leading engineering concern in the automobile sector, that manufactures;

Tractors, under licensing agreement with Massey Ferguson, UK (AGCO, USA)

Diesel Engines, as per design of Perkins Engine, UK

Diesel Generating Sets and Prime Movers

Forklift Trucks, under license from Anhui Heli Forklift Trucks China and

A range of Agricultural Implements.

The company is also dedicated to customize its Diesel Generating Sets and Prime Moversas per requirements of its Customers.

Millat Tractors Limited (MTL) was established in 1964 as Rana tractors and equipment limited and changed its name to Millat tractors limited in 1972 at the time of take-over. The main activity of the company is to introduce and market Massey Ferguson (MF) Tractors in Pakistan. An assembly plant was set up in 1967 to assemble tractors imported in semi-knocked down (SKD) condition.

The company was nationalized under Economic Reforms Order in 1972 and started assembling and marketing tractors on behalf of Pakistan Tractor Corporation (PTC) which was formed by the Government for import of tractors in SKD condition. In 1980 the Government decided on indigenization of the tractors and entrusted this task to PTC.

PTC transferred this role of indigenization in 1981 to MTL. This was the turning point in the Companys history and it went about the task methodically and rapidly. The Company undertook this new role with enthusiasm and in the spirit of national development and proved its engineering capabilities by surprising the deletion targets set by the Government. Just in one year's time, the company took a giant step towards self-reliance by setting up the first engine assembly plant in Pakistan.

The Company made a strategic decision right in the beginning to bring those manufacturing facilities in-house for which capabilities did not exist in the country and for parts which required high precision and investment. Therefore, in 1984, sophisticated manufacturing facilities for the machining of intricate components were set up. These were previously not available in Pakistan. Currently, critical components like Engine Blocks, Sump, Transmission Case, Axle Housing, Hydraulic Lift Cover, Front Axle Support and Centre Housing are all being machined most successfully in-house at MTL from locally sourced castings.

At MTL, we firmly believe that producing to International quality standards is the key to our continued success and growth, and our quality control department converts this belief into reality.

In 1992, the company was privatized. The employees joined hands and took over the management by winning an open bid.

To maintain its leadership role in tractor manufacturing in the country, MTL continues to look toward future, to identify and exploit new opportunities and to consolidate existing ones. The Tractor Assembly Plant is part of this philosophy. This plant started its production in 1992. The establishment of this modern plant not only increased production capacity to 16000 tractors per year on a single shift basis, but also provided a quantum jump to the quality of the assembled tractors and pushed MTL into ranks of the major tractor manufacturing companies of the World.

After successful takeover, MTL also acquired the management control of Bolan Castings Limited (a Public Limited Company specializing in intricate automotive castings) in partnership with employees of the company, in 1993. The company has been the regular recipient of the Corporate Excellence Award of Management Association of Pakistan and the Top Companies Award of Karachi Stock Exchange, since early eighties. MTL's Annual Report has been acknowledged as the Best Annual Report by the Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Admin Association of Pakistan for several years.

Future Outlook

The Company looks to the future with optimism and plans to broaden its customer base. Consequently the opportunities are being explored in multi-application of engines and tractors in areas other than farming sectors. Mass Production of Generating Sets was started in 1994, while a 3-Ton Fork Lift Truck branded as Millat, based on TCM technology was launched in the year 2002.

The company has established a wholly new company named Millat Industrial Products (Pvt) Limited to manufacture quality automotive batteries.

It is mission of the company to provide total satisfaction to the customers. The employees of the company ably supported by our engineers continue to work with full vigor to further enhance products, performance and reliability.

Millat is a global group of companies, recognized for a range of quality products with innovative design capabilities.

3.Agricultural ImplementsThe most Impotant plough for primary tillage in canal irrigated or heavy rain areas where too much weeds grow. The objective for ploughing with a Mould Board is to completely invert and pulverize the soil, up-root all weeds, trash and crop residues and bury them under the soil. The shape of mould Board is designed to cut down the soil and invert it to right side, completely burying the undesired growth which is subsequently turned into manure after decomposition.

Millat Tractors Limited (MTL) deals in different types of Agricultural Implements, which give MTL a unique position in agricultural driven market place.

The Agricultural Implements include different types of ploughs, farm trailers, lawn mowers, jib cranes, agricultural loader

The ratios which measure the short term solvency or financial position of a firm are called liquidity ratios. These ratios are calculated to comment upon the short term paying capacity of a concern or the firms ability to meet its current obligations.These ratios are;

1. Current Ratio

2. Quick Ratio

3. Absolute Quick Ratio

Current Ratio:

A measure of liquidity calculated by dividing the firms current assets by its current liabilities.

The standard of Current Ratio is 2:1.Current Ratio= Current asset Current liabilities

Quick Ratio:

A measure of liquidity calculated by dividing the firms current assets minus inventory by its current liability, it is also known as Liquid Ratio and Acid-Test Ratio.

The standard of Quick Ratio is 1:1.Quick Ratio= Quick assets Current liabilities

Absolute Quick Ratio:

It is ratio of Absolute Liquid Asset to Current Liability in the computation of this ratio, only the Absolute Liquid Assets are compared with Liquid Liabilities. The Absolute Liquid Assets are Cash, Bank and Marketable Securities. A standard 0.5:1 Absolute Liquid Ratio is considered an acceptable norm.Absolute Quick Ratio= Absolute liquid assets Current liabilities

The profitability of Millat tractors Limited is low because of:

A low profitability arises due to lack of control over the expenses.

There is increase in sale without corresponding increase in profits.

There is poor impact of profitability because the bankers, financial institutions and other creditors look at the profitability ratios as an indicator, whether or not the firm earns substantially more than it pays interest for the use of borrowed funds and whether the ultimate repayment of their debt appears reasonably certain.
