ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES
PVT. LTD.
Executive Summary
Introduction:
One of the important areas in the day-to-day management of the affairs
of a firm is the management of Working Capital. Working Capital is used for
financing day-to-day business operations. An organization whether it is
manufacturing or trading, requires adequate funds for acquiring the stock of
materials, marketable securities, stores materials etc., apart from land,
building, machinery furniture etc. The funds invested in current assets such as,
stock of materials work in process, investments, bills receivables, debtors,
bank balance etc., is known as Working Capital. Success or otherwise of any
enterprise depends upon efficient management of working capital and hence,
working capital is often described as “life-blood of business”
In simple terms, all current assets used in daily operations represent
working capital. Current assets are cash or near cash resources. Working
Capital is also known as Circulating or revolving capital, because the current
assets are of nature of circulation. They keep on moving from one form to
another. For example, cash is used for purchasing merchandise which then
takes the form of stock-in-trade or inventories, when the inventories are sold
out cash or debtors are created, when debtors are collected cash is
accumulated and this process continues. Thus, its flow is circular in nature.
In, accounting Working Capital is taken to mean the difference between
current assets and current liabilities.

Objectives of the Study:
1. To know the financial position of the company access.
2. To assess the financial strengths and weakness of the company to give
valuable suggestions to attain operational excellence.
3. To study the importance of Working Capital Management in a
manufacturing concern.
4. To study and evaluate the present Cash Management system of the
company.
Methodology of Data Collection
Research methodology is a systematic way for solving any research problem.
It’s a science of analyzing how research is done scientifically. It studies the
various steps that are generally adopted by a researcher in studying the
research problem.
Sources of Data:
There are 2 types of data:
1. Primary Data
2. Secondary Data
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 3
ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES
PVT. LTD.
Primary Data
The primary data are those which are collected fresh for the first time
and thus happen to be original in character. The primary data collection
involves the collecting of information for the first time by observation,
experimentation, questionnaire and through interview schedule in the original
form by the researcher himself or his nominees.
Plan of action:
The primary data was collected through discussion with the finance
manager using the interview schedule. This data was obtained to study the
latest procedures relating to working capital management and cash
management system followed by the company.
Secondary Data
The secondary data are those which have been collected by some other
and which have been processed. Generally speaking secondary data are
information, which have been previously collected by some organization to
satisfy its own need. But the department under reference for an entirely
different reason is using it.
There are two main sources for Secondary Data:
Published Data: Data that is already available in books, magazines,
trade journals, newspapers, reports, prepared by research scholar etc.
Unpublished Data: This is not published; it can be found in unpublished
biographies, autobiographies, some governmental aspects and private
individual organizations etc.
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 4
ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES
PVT. LTD.
The Secondary data used in the study are:
o Annual Report of the company.
o Published financial reports of the company.
o Financial records and stores manual of the company.
o Directors reports, auditors report and other schedules.
Limitations of the Study:
The span of study is confined to only 5 years. The comparison of various
ratios may not have the same conditions, which may result in unrelated
comparisons.
DIPL depends completely on Divgi Warner Pvt. Ltd (Pune) for
procurement of raw materials & supply of finished goods. Hence the
Working Capital Inventory management techniques have to be adjusted
on a timely basis, based on DWPL’s needs.
In this project report the Working Capital Management & Cash
Management system followed during the time of doing the project is
recorded and analyzed.
Need and Importance of Working Capital:
To fulfill its endeavor to maximize the shareholder’s wealth, firm has to
earn sufficient return from its operations, which needs a successful sales
activity. The firm has to invest sufficient funds in current asset to succeed in
sales, as the sales do not convert into cash instantaneously because of time
gap between the sale of goods and actual receipt in cash.
Hence there is a need for Working Capital in the form of current assets to
sustain sales activity during that period.

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES
PVT. LTD.
Findings:
1. View of financial position: The Company was incorporated in the year
2000, its actual commercial work started in the year 2003 April 1st.The
Company had not started any business, so there is no question of profit
from the year 2000 to 2003. But however as a first step towards the
commencement of commercial activity the company has taken over the
business of timing gear blanker on April 2003.
2. In 2003-04 the Company started commercial activity by acquiring the
building, plant & machinery from Divgi Metal Ware Pvt. Ltd., on an
annual lease of Rs.9,00,000/- plus taxes of Rs.51,750/-. Using these
leased assets the company carried out job work for Divgi Warner Pvt.
Ltd. After expenses the company made a modest profit of Rs.3,745/-
before depreciation.
3. The debtors component in the composition of current assets is the
highest. It was 87.77% in the year 2003-04, 79.38% in 2004-05, 73.63%
in 2005-06, 70.87% in 2006-07 and 69.43% for the year 2007-08. It may
be noted that debtors components in current assets is decreasing over
the years.
4. The cash and bank component for the year 2003-04 was 2.19%.it was
1.71% in 2004-05, 7.11% in 2005-06, 1.16% in 2006-07, 0.27% in 2007-
08. The loans and advances component was 10.04% in the year 2003-
04, 18.91% in 2004-05, 19.26% 2005-06, 27.97% in 2006-07, 30.30% in
2007-08. The debtors component in the composition of current assets
decrease the loans and advance component is on an increase.
5. In the years 2003-04 and 2004-05, the company had a negative working
capital of Rs.1,35,169.09 and Rs.1,95,076.75 respectively which is not a
favorable position to the company. Then in the year 2005-06, 2006-07
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 6
ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES
PVT. LTD. and 2007-08 the Net Working Capital has improved drastically to
Rs.9,78,370.64 ,.Rs9,86,858.40, and Rs 35,02,104.84 respectively.
Suggestions and Recommendations:
1. The Debtors component is the highest among the five years and it
amounted to nearly 76% of the total current assets. But the percentage
has decreased over the year which is a good sign of improvement. The
second highest element is the loans and advances component which has
increased over the years because of the expansion programmes
undertaken by the company. In the initial years the company had not
maintained a considerable amount of cash and bank balances, but over
the years the company is maintaining adequate cash so as to meet its
immediate cash requirements.
2. The working capital of the company should be always positive. It should
not be negative. In the years 2003-04 and 2004-05, the company had a
negative working capital which is not a favorable position to the
company. Then again in the year 2005-06, 2006-07, and 2007-08 DIPL’s
net working capital has increased to Rs.9, 78,370.64, RS9,86,858.40,
and Rs 35,02,104.84 which is a very positive sign of prosperity and it will
help the company to sustain its expansion programmes. It also shows
that the liquidity position of the company has improved. Hence there is
much capital available with the company to pay off the current liabilities.
3. In order to ensure liquidity and quick cash collection the company can go
for factoring technique, through which the company can get immediate
cash for its accounts receivables and employ it in business and there by
improve its profitability.

INDUSTRY PROFILE
Indian Auto Components Industry :
The Indian auto ancillary industry has come a long way since it had its
small beginnings in the 1940s. If the evolution of the industry is traced in India,
it can be classified into three distinct phases namely: Period prior to the entry
of Maruti Udhyog Ltd, period after the entry of Maruti Udhyog Ltd and Period
post Liberalization. The period prior to the entry of Maruti Udhyog Ltd was
characterized by small number of auto majors like Hindustan Motors, Premier
Automobiles, Telco, Bajaj, Mahindra & Mahindra, low technology and assured
business for most of the auto component manufacturers.
The entry of Maruti in the 1980’s marked the beginning of the second
phase of the industry. The auto ancillary industry in the country really showed
a spurt in growth during this period. This period witnessed the emergence of a
new generation of auto ancillary manufacturers who were required to meet the
stringent quality standard of Maruti’s Korean collaborator Suzuki of Japan. The
good performance of Maruti resulted in an upswing for the domestic auto
ancillary industry. It was during this period that auto components from India
began to be exported.
The entry of foreign automobile manufactures ranging from Mercedes
Benz, Ford and General Motors to Daewoo following the government
liberalizing the foreign investment limits saw the beginning of the third phase
of the evolution of the industry. The auto ancillary industry witnessed huge
capacity expansions and modernization initiatives in the post liberalization
period. Technological collaborations and equity partnerships with world
leaders in auto components became a common affair. However, the global
automobile majors soon realized the folly of their estimations in India. The
market did not seem to be as big as it appeared to be. Hence, sales targets

PVT. LTD. went away. The tough competitive scenario saw a lot of consolidation in the
industry and it still continues unabated.
Global Scenario;
Prior to 2000, it had been almost ten years since TTS (torq transfer
systems) had been awarded any new transfer case business for the European
market (Land Rover). Then concerted efforts were made to re-enter that
market & attain new business with improved technologies such as high output
transfer cases & Torsen Torque Differential technology which broadens the
industries offering in the transfer case market place.
In the global Scenario of transfer case industry there are significant
differences between the American & European Markets. While the American
car-buyer is primarily interested in traction & larger, more powerful vehicles,
the European driver is more interested in vehicle handling, stability & safety.
Therefore for their home markets, European auto makers are producing
smaller, front wheel drive vehicles. But as the American car buyers are more
interested in powerful engines the automakers are offering a wide range of
SUV’s for which the Torq transfer System ( TTS) is particularly well suited
making the 2 wheel drive into 4 wheel drive ( 4 x 4 ). The vehicles tend to be
technically more sophisticated creating new market potential for TTS.
Borg Warner & TTS (Torq Transfer Systems)
The Company engineers work closely with the Drivetrain group in
engineering strategy & provide many opportunities for collaboration & learning
of TTS. TTS engineers frequently make customer presentations along with
colleagues from TS. This collaboration allows the Company to talk about the
company’s all-wheel drive products while TS engineers present other Drive
train technologies that Borg Warner has to offer, including the very successful
Dual Clutch Technology, which is generating much attention in Global
markets.Other Borg Warner business groups have helped to establish a great
reputation for Borg Warner at the Global level. The company’s commitment to

McKinsey’s 7S Framework
The 7S model is better known as McKinsey’s 7-S. This is because two
persons who developed this model, Tom Peters & Robert Waterman, have
been consultants to McKinsey & Co, at that time they published their 7-S
model in their article “Structure in not organization “( 1980 ) & in their book
“The Art of Japanese Management “(1981) “In search of Excellence “ ( 1982).
The model starts on the precise that an organization is not just structure,
but consist of 7 elements: Strategy, Structure, System, Style, Staff, Skill
and Shared values.
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 20
ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES
PVT. LTD.
Strategy : Actions company plans in response to or anticipation of
changes in its external environment.
Structure : Basis for specialization & coordination influenced primarily by
strategy & by organization size and diversity.
Systems : Formal and informal procedures that support the strategy and
Structure.
Style : The culture of the organization consists of 2 components:-
o Organization Culture: The dominant values and norms which develop
over time & become relatively enduring features of organization
life.Management Style More a matter of what manager do than what
they say; how do a companies managers spend time? What are they
focusing attention on?
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 21
ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES
PVT. LTD. o Symbolism: The creation and maintenance (or sometimes
deconstruction) of meaning is a fundamental responsibility of mangers.
Staff : The people / human resource management processes use to
develop mangers socialization processes, ways of shaping basic values of
management cadre, ways of introducing young recruits to the Co., ways of
helping to manage the career of employees.
Skills : The distinctive competencies – what the company does best, ways
of expanding or shifting competencies.
Shared values : Guiding concepts, fundamental ideas around which a
business is built – must be simple , usually stated at abstract level, have great
meaning inside the organization even though outsiders may not see to
understand them.
The 7-S model is a valuable tool to initiate change processes & to give
them direction. A helpful application is to determine the current state of each
element and to compare this with the ideal state. Based on this it’s possible to
develop action plan to achieve the intended state.
Application of McKinsey’s 7S:
STRUCTURE
Organizations are economic & social entities in which a number of
persons perform multifarious tasks in order to attain common goals.
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 22
ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES
PVT. LTD.
L. A. Allen defines an organization as “the process of identifying &
grouping the work to be performed, defining & delegating responsibility &
authority & establishing relationship for the purpose of enabling to people to
work most effectively together in accomplishing objectives”.
Organization structure can be designed on the basis of
departmentalization and relationships.
Departmentalization is the process of dividing work of an organization
into various units or departments.
Relationship is the process of organization brings relationship among
employees at different levels, materials, money & machines.

Methodology of Data Collection
Research methodology is a systematic way for solving any research problem.
It’s a science of analyzing how research is done scientifically. It studies the
various steps that are generally adopted by a researcher in studying the
research problem.
Sources of Data:
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 51
ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES
PVT. LTD. There are 2 types of data:
1. Primary Data
2. Secondary Data
Primary Data
The primary data are those which are collected fresh for the first time
and thus happen to be original in character. The primary data collection
involves the collecting of information for the first time by observation,
experimentation, questionnaire and through interview schedule in the original
form by the researcher himself or his nominees.
Plan of action:
The primary data was collected through discussion with the finance
manager using the interview schedule. This data was obtained to study the
latest procedures relating to working capital management and cash
management system followed by the company.
Secondary Data
The secondary data are those which have been collected by some other
and which have been processed. Generally speaking secondary data are
information, which have been previously collected by some organization to
satisfy its own need. But the department under reference for an entirely
different reason is using it.
There are two main sources for Secondary Data:
Published Data: Data that is already available in books, magazines,
trade journals, newspapers, reports, prepared by research scholar etc.
Unpublished Data: This is not published; it can be found in unpublished
biographies, autobiographies, some governmental aspects and private
individual organizations etc.
The Secondary data used in the study are:

PVT. LTD. 1. Annual Report of the company.
2. Published financial reports of the company.
3. Financial records and stores manual of the company.
4. Directors reports, auditors report and other schedules.
Statement of the Problem:
Financial statements can provide valuable insights into a firm’s
performance. Analysis of financial statements is useful for the company to
evaluate its own performance and also it is of interest to lenders (short term as
well as long term), investors, security analysts, managers and others. To
evaluate the effectiveness of operations and to determine its success an
analyst has to combine quantitative results with qualitative factors. For
instance a company’s current profitability may be low. However, because of
actions initiated by the management like technology up gradation, joint venture
and collaboration with a foreign partner, etc. The prospects for better
performance of the company in future may be bright.
To fulfill its endeavor to maximize the shareholder’s wealth, firm has to
earn sufficient return from its operations, which needs a successful sales
activity. The firm has to invest sufficient funds in current asset to succeed in
sales, as the sales do not convert into cash instantaneously because of time
gap between the sale of goods and actual receipt in cash. Hence there is a
need for Working Capital in the form of current assets to sustain sales activity
during that period.
Limitations of the Study:
The span of study is confined to only 5 years. The comparison

Working Capital Inventory management techniques have to be adjusted
on a timely basis, based on DWPL’s needs.
In this project report the Working Capital Management & Cash
Management system followed during the time of doing the project is
recorded and analyzed.
Need and Importance of Working Capital:
To fulfill its endeavor to maximize the shareholder’s wealth, firm has to
earn sufficient return from its operations, which needs a successful sales
activity. The firm has to invest sufficient funds in current asset to succeed in

gap between the sale of goods and actual receipt in cash.
Hence there is a need for Working Capital in the form of current assets to
sustain sales activity during that period.

extremes. Excessive investment in current assets simply reduces the
profitability of an enterprise, since, the investment becomes idle. Whereas,
inadequate working capital effects the solvency of the company negatively.
2. Net Working Capital: Net working capital is defined as the difference
between current assets and current liabilities. A company has to give more
importance to liquidity, because inability to pay short-term creditors may prove
to be dangerous
to the organization. Current assets should be sufficiently above the current
liabilities low liquidity is harmful to the solvency of the company.
3. Permanent Working Capital: It refers to the current assets that are
required to be maintained continuously throughout the year to carry on the
business operations. In other words, it represents that part of the working
capital which remains permanent in the business, in one form or the other in
the same way as the fixed assets. For e.g. Cash or bank balance, stock-in-
trade to be maintained as minimum to carry on business operations at any
time.

current assets required to meet the changing demands of an industrial or

current liabilities exceed the current assets it is known as negative working
capital. Under this situation a firm actually suffers from the shortage of funds
and is a sign of unhealthy developments in business. It results in damage to
the reputation of a concern.

outflows are neither synchronized nor certain. The firm needs to maintain
liquidity to purchase raw material and pay expenses such as wages. Salaries
other manufacturing and administration & selling expenses and taxes, as the
cash outflows are certain. It surplus cash is available at any time in an
intermediary state should be invested in short term securities without keeping
it idle. Longer the duration of the operating cycle greater is the extent of
working capital requirements.

company needs to improve its credit policy.

2005-06 which shows that the company is trying to maintain a good liquidity
position.

increase in the debtors and loans and advances. But in the year 2005-06 less
than 75% of the gross working capital is made up by debtors which is a sign of
improvement compared to the previous years.

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES
PVT. LTD.
Interpretation:
The working capital of the company should be always positive. It should
not be negative. In the years 2003-04 and 2004-05, DIPL had a negative
working capital which is not a favorable position to the company.
It clearly shows that DIPL was a newly established company. So it was
facing shortage of working capital in initial years, so it had to increase its
working capital to stand in the business world.
Then again in the year 2005-06, 2006-07 and 2007-08 DIPL’s net
working capital has increased to Rs.9,78,370.64, Rs9,86,858.40 and
Rs35,02,104.84 which is a very positive sign of prosperity and it will help DIPL
to sustain its expansion programmes.

Table 8: Current Ratio
Interpretation:
The Current Ratio was 0.95 for 2003-04 and decreased to 0.91 in the
year 2004-05 and for 2005-06 the ratio increased to 1.43.and then decreased
to1.39 in the year 2006-07 and for 2007-08 the ratio increased to 3.76.
The current ratio has met the standard of 2:1 ratio and hence it can be
said that there is enough working capital to meet the current liabilities. Hence
it can be noted that steps have been taken to increase the current ratio in the
previous financial years .so that enough working capital is available to meet
the current obligation. Thus the liquidity position, as calculated by the current
ratio, is improved in the financial year 2007-08.
Absolute Liquidity Ratio

Interpretation:
The absolute liquidity ratio was 0.021 for 2003-04 and decreased to
0.015 in the year 2004-05 and for the year 2005-06 the ratio increased to
0.102 and then in 2006-07 and 2007-08 the ratio decreased to 0.016 and
0.010 respectively.
The absolute liquidity ratio is below the standard of 0.5:1. It shows that
the liquidity position of the concern is not good. Hence adequate cash balance
need to be maintained by the company.

Interpretation:
The working capital turnover ratio was negative for the years 2003-04

and 13.5 times respectively. But in the year 2007-08 it has considerably
decreased to 4.89 times.
Working capital turnover is the ability to generate sales per rupee of
working capital. It should always be positive but in the initial years the ratio
was negative which is not a favorable position to the company. For year
2005-06, 2006-07 the ratio has improved to12.5 times and 13-5 times But in
the year 2007-08 it has decreased to 4.89 times which shows that the
organization is not able to utilize its working capital full.
