INTRODUCTION
The Indian textile industry has a significant presence in the economy as well as in the
international textile economy. Its contribution to the Indian economy is manifested in
terms of its contribution to the industrial production, employment generation and foreign
exchange earnings. It contributes 20 percent of industrial production, 9 percent of excise
collections, 18 percent of employment in the industrial sector, nearly 20 percent to the
countrys total export earning and 4 percent to the Gross Domestic Product.
In human history, past and present can never ignore the importance of textile in a
civilization decisively affecting its destinies, effectively changing its social scenario. A
brief but thoroughly researched feature on Indian textile culture.
HISTORY OF TEXTILE INDUSTRY
India has been well known for her textile goods since very ancient times. The traditional
textile industry of India was virtually decayed during the colonial regime. However, the
modern textile industry took birth in India in the early nineteenth century when the first
textile mill in the country was established at fort gloster near Calcutta in 1818. The
cotton textile industry, however, made its real beginning in Bombay, in 1850s. The first
cotton textile mill of Bombay was established in 1854 by a Parsi cotton merchant then
engaged in overseas and internal trade. Indeed, the vast majority of the early mills were
the handiwork of Parsi merchants engaged in yarn and cloth trade at home and Chinese
and African markets.
The first cotton mill in Ahmedabad, which was eventually to emerge as a rival centre toBombay, was established in 1861. The spread of the textile industry to Ahmedabad was
largely due to the Gujarati trading class.

The cotton textile industry made rapid progress in the second half of the nineteenth
century and by the end of the century there were 178 cotton textile mills; but during the
year 1900 the cotton textile industry was in bad state due to the great famine and a
number of mills of Bombay and Ahmedabad were to be closed down for long periods
The two world War and the Swadeshi movement provided great stimulus to the Indian
cotton textile industry. However, during the period 1922 to 1937 the industry was in
doldrums and during this period a number of the Bombay mills changed hands. The
second World War, during which textile import from Japan completely stopped,
however, brought about an unprecedented growth of this industry. The number of mills
increased from 178 with 4.05 lakh looms in 1901 to 249 mills with 13.35 lakh looms in
1921 and further to 396 mills with over 20 lakh looms in 1941. By 1945 there were 417
mills employing 5.10 lakh workers.
The cotton textile industry is rightly described as a Swadeshi industry because it was
developed with indigenous entrepreneurship and capital and in the pre-independence era
the Swadeshi movement stimulated demand for Indian textile in the country.
The partition of the country at the time of independence affected the cotton textile
industry also. The Indian union got 409 out of the 423 textiles mills of the undivided
India. 14 mills and 22 per cent of the land under cotton cultivation went to Pakistan.
Some mills were closed down for some time. For a number of years since independence,
Indian mills had to import cotton from Pakistan and other countries.
After independence, the cotton textile industry made rapid strides under the Plans.
Between 1951 and 1982 the total number of spindles doubled from 11 million to 22million. It increased further to well over 26 million by 1989-90
Textile constitutes the single largest industry in India. The segment of the industry during
the year 2000-01 has been positive. The production of cotton declined from 156 lakh
bales in 1999-2000 to 1.40 lakh bales during 2000-01. Production of man-made fibre
2

increased from 835 million kgs in 1999-2000 to 904 million kgs during the year 2000-01
registering a growth of 8.26%. The production of spun yarn increased to 3160 million
kgs during 2000-01 from 3046 million kgs during 1999-2000 registering a growth of
3.7%. The production of man-made filament yarn registered a growth of 2.91% during
the year 1999-2000 increasing from 894 million kgs to 920 million kgs. The production
of fabric registered a growth of 2.7% during the year 1999-2000 increasing from 39,208
million sq mtrs to 40,256 million sq mtrs. The production of mill sector declined by 2.6%
while production of handloom, powerloom and hosiery sector increased by 2%, 2.7% and
5.1% respectively. The exports of textiles and garments increased from Rs. 455048
million to Rs. 552424 million, registering a growth of 21%. Growth in the textile
industry in the year 2003-2004 was Rs. 1609 billion. And during 2004-05 production of
fabrics touched a peak of 45,378 million squre meters. In the year 2005-06 up to
November, production of fabrics registered a further growth of 9 percent over the
corresponding period of the previous year. With the growing awareness in the industry of
its strengths and weakness and the need for exploiting the opportunities and averting
threats, the government has initiated many policy measures as follows.
STRUCTURE OF INDIAS TEXTILE INDUSTRY
The textile sector in India is one of the worlds largest. The textile industry today is
divided into three segments:
1. Cotton Textiles
2. Synthetic Textiles
3. Other like Wool, Jute, Silk etc.
All segments have their own place but even today cotton textiles continue to dominate
with 73% share. The structure of cotton textile industry is very complex with co
existence of oldest technologies of hand spinning and hand weaving with the most
sophisticated automatic spindles and loom. The structure of the textile industry is
3
-

4/60
extremely complex with the modern, sophisticated and highly mechanized mill sector on
the one hand and hand spinning and hand weaving (handloom sector) on the other in
between falls the decentralised small scale powerloom sector.
Unlike other major textile-producing countries, Indias textile industry is comprised
mostly of small-scale, nonintegrated spinning, weaving, finishing, and apparel-making
enterprises. This unique industry structure is primarily a legacy of government policies
that have promoted labor-intensive, small-scale operations and discriminated against
larger scale firms:
Composite Mills.
Relatively large-scale mills that integrate spinning, weaving and, sometimes, fabric
finishing are common in other major textile-producing countries. In India, however, these
types of mills now account for about only 3 percent of output in the textile sector. About
276 composite mills are now operating in India, most owned by the public sector and
many deemed financially sick. In 2003-2004 composite mills that produced 1434 m.sq
mts of cloth. Most of these mills are located in Gujarat and Maharashtra.
Spinning.
Spinning is the process of converting cotton or manmade fiber into yarn to be used for
weaving and knitting. This mills chiefly located in North India. Spinning sector is
technology intensive and productivity is affected by the quality of cotton and the cleaning
process used during ginning. Largely due to deregulation beginning in the mid-1980s,
spinning is the most consolidated and technically efficient sector in Indias textile
industry. Average plant size remains small, however, and technology outdated, relative toother major producers. In 2002/03, Indias spinning sector consisted of about 1,146 small-
scale independent firms and 1,599 larger scale independent units.

Weaving and Knitting.
The weaving and knits sector lies at the heart of the industry. In 2004-05, of the total
production from the weaving sector, about 46 percent was cotton cloth, 41 percent was
100% non-cotton including khadi, wool and silk and 13 percent was blended cloth. Three
distinctive technologies are used in the sector handlooms, power looms and knitting
machines. Weaving and knitting converts cotton, manmade, or blended yarns into woven
or knitted fabrics. Indias weaving and knitting sector remains highly fragmented, small-
scale, and labour-intensive. This sector consists of about 3.9 million handlooms, 380,000
power loom enterprises that operate about 1.7 million looms, and just 137,000 looms in
the various composite mills. Power looms are small firms, with an average loom capacity
of four to five owned by independent entrepreneurs or weavers. Modern shuttle less
looms account for less than 1 percent of loom capacity.
Fabric Finishing.
Fabric finishing (also referred to as processing), which includes dyeing, printing, and
other cloth preparation prior to the manufacture of clothing, is also dominated by a large
number of independent, small-scale enterprises. Overall, about 2,300 processors are
operating in India, including about 2,100 independent units and 200 units that are
integrated with spinning, weaving, or knitting units.
Clothing.
Apparel is produced by about 77,000 small-scale units classified as domestic
manufacturers, manufacturer exporters, and fabricators (subcontractors).

INDIAS MAJOR COMPETITIORS IN THE WORLD
To understand Indias position among other textile producing the industry contributes 9%
of GDP and 35% of foreign exchange earning, Indias share in global exports is only 3%
compared to Chinas 13.75% percent. In addition to China, other developing countries are
emerging as serious competitive threats to India. Looking at export shares, Korea (6%)
and Taiwan (5.5%) are ahead of India, while Turkey (2.9%) has already caught up and
others like Thailand (2.3%) and Indonesia (2%) are not much further behind. The reason
for this development is the fact that India lags behind these countries in investment
levels, technology, quality and logistics. If India were competitive in some key segments
it could serve as a basis for building a modern industry, but there is no evidence of such
signs, except to some extent in the spinning industry.

1. MIXING
The different varieties of cotton are issued as per product mix from the raw material
section in bale from. The different varieties of cotton and different lots are 23 mixed
together as per the requirement of end product and standard recommended mixings. The
material is conditioned in mixing for 24 hours.
2. BLOW ROOM
The cleaning and opening of fibers is done is a sequence of beaters. Main purpose is to
reduce tuft size , remove the trash particles abd foreign matter etc, which often comes in
the bales
3. CARDING
further cleaning of fibers is done and fibres are opened into single fibers extent i.e. main
purpose is further removal of trash in cotton and the parallelization of fibres. From the
carding machine, the material is delivered in the form of sliver.
4. DRAW FRAME
The purpose of this process is to reduce the wt/yard in the card sliver 6 to 8 end of card
slivers are doubled together in this process to reduce variations and further drafting is
done to reduce the wt/yard of sliver.
5. LAP FORMER
20-25 Precombed draw slivers are fed together to produce a lap sheets of fibres which is
wound on the spools.
6. COMBERS
The laps prepared on lap former are fed to combers. The main purpose of combing
process is to remove the short fibres from the material in the form of noil. The average
noil percebtage carries from 15 to 18%. The material is deleivered in the form of sliver.

7. SPEED FRAME
The finisher draw frame sliver is fed to the speed frames for conversion into the roving
form. In this process wt/yard of the sliver is reduced, slight twist is given to the fleece
and the material deleivered in the form roving, wound on the plastic bobbins
8. RING FRAME
The roving is fed to ring frame for conversion into yarn. In the process the wt/yard of
roving are reduced as per requirements of ultimate user and the deleivered yarn is wound
on the plastic bobbins.
9. WINDING
In this process, the yarn is wound on paper cones to produce bigger package as per
requirement of market. The weight varies from 1.2 kg to 2.2. kg. during the process, in
addition to the formation of bigger packages, the yarn faults are also removed with help
of electronic yarn cleaner.
10. DOUBLING
In case of type cord the process is same upto winding. After cone winding the yarn is fed
into cheese winding. In the process 2 ply or 4 ply is to be done as per requiremntets.
After the yarn is fed into ring doubling and required is given in 2 or 4 ply yarn. In the
next process in assembly cheese winding is get the package in the package in the required
form to be fed into T.F.O. in T.F.O. final yarn is prepared in the form of cheese and
required T.P.I. is given to the final yarn in process
11. PACKING
In this process, the cones/cheese are packed in bags or cartoons as per the requirements
of the market. In addition to the packing the material is checked thoroughly to avoid
mixing of different materials.

RATIO ANALYSIS
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Financial analysis is the process of identifying the financial strengths and
weaknesses of the firm and establishing relationship between the items of the balance
sheet and profit & loss account.
Financial ratio analysis is the calculation and comparison of ratios, which
are derived from the information in a companys financial statements. The level and
historical trends of these ratios can be used to make inferences about a companys
financial condition, its operations and attractiveness as an investment. The information in
the statements is used by
Trade creditors, to identify the firms ability to meet their claims i.e. liquidity
position of the company.
Investors, to know about the present and future profitability of the company and
its financial structure.
Management, in every aspect of the financial analysis. It is the responsibility of
the management to maintain sound financial condition in the company.
RATIO ANALYSIS
The term Ratio refers to the numerical and quantitative relationship
between two items or variables. This relationship can be exposed as
Percentages
Fractions
Proportion of numbers
Ratio analysis is defined as the systematic use of the ratio to interpret the
financial statements. So that the strengths and weaknesses of a firm, as well as its
17
-

18/60
historical performance and current financial condition can be determined. Ratio reflects a
quantitative relationship helps to form a quantitative judgment.
STEPS IN RATIO ANALYSIS
The first task of the financial analysis is to select the information relevant to the
decision under consideration from the statements and calculates appropriate
ratios.
To compare the calculated ratios with the ratios of the same firm relating to the
pas6t or with the industry ratios. It facilitates in assessing success or failure of the
firm.
Third step is to interpretation, drawing of inferences and report writing
conclusions are drawn after comparison in the shape of report or recommended
courses of action.
BASIS OR STANDARDS OF COMPARISON
Ratios are relative figures reflecting the relation between variables. They
enable analyst to draw conclusions regarding financial operations. They use of ratios as a
tool of financial analysis involves the comparison with related facts. This is the basis of
ratio analysis. The basis of ratio analysis is of four types.
Past ratios, calculated from past financial statements of the firm.
Competitors ratio, of the some most progressive and successful competitor firm
at the same point of time.
Industry ratio, the industry ratios to which the firm belongs to
Projected ratios, ratios of the future developed from the projected or pro forma
financial statement

NATURE OF RATIO ANALYSIS
Ratio analysis is a technique of analysis and interpretation of financial
statements. It is the process of establishing and interpreting various ratios for helping in
making certain decisions. It is only a means of understanding of financial strengths and
weaknesses of a firm. There are a number of ratios which can be calculated from the
information given in the financial statements, but the analyst has to select the appropriate
data and calculate only a few appropriate ratios. The following are the four steps
involved in the ratio analysis.
Selection of relevant data from the financial statements depending upon the
objective of the analysis.
Calculation of appropriate ratios from the above data.
Comparison of the calculated ratios with the ratios of the same firm in the past, or
the ratios developed from projected financial statements or the ratios of some
other firms or the comparison with ratios of the industry to which the firm
belongs.
GUIDELINES OR PRECAUTIONS FOR USE OF RATIOS
The calculation of ratios may not be a difficult task but their use is not
easy. Following guidelines or factors may be kept in mind while interpreting various
ratios are
Accuracy of financial statements
Objective or purpose of analysis
Selection of ratios
Use of standards

Evaluation of efficiency
Effective tool
IN THE VIEW OF FUNCTIONAL CLASSIFICATION THE RATIOS ARE
1. Liquidity ratio
2. Leverage ratio
3. Activity ratio
4. Profitability ratio
1. LIQUIDITY RATIOS
Liquidity refers to the ability of a concern to meet its current obligations
as & when there becomes due. The short term obligations of a firm can be met only when
there are sufficient liquid assets. The short term obligations are met by realizing amounts
20

21/60
from current, floating (or) circulating assets The current assets should either be calculated
liquid (or) near liquidity. They should be convertible into cash for paying obligations of
short term nature. The sufficiency (or) insufficiency of current assets should be assessed
by comparing them with short-term current liabilities. If current assets can pay off
current liabilities, then liquidity position will be satisfactory.
To measure the liquidity of a firm the following ratios can be calculated
Current ratio
Quick (or) Acid-test (or) Liquid ratio
Absolute liquid ratio (or) Cash position ratio
(a) CURRENT RATIO:
Current ratio may be defined as the relationship between current
assets and current liabilities. This ratio also known as Working capital ratio is a measure
of general liquidity and is most widely used to make the analysis of a short-term financial
position (or) liquidity of a firm.
Current assets

(b) QUICK RATIO
Quick ratio is a test of liquidity than the current ratio. The term liquidity
refers to the ability of a firm to pay its short-term obligations as & when they become
due. Quick ratio may be defined as the relationship between quick or liquid assets and
current liabilities. An asset is said to be liquid if it is converted into cash with in a short
period without loss of value.

(c) ABSOLUTE LIQUID RATIO
Although receivable, debtors and bills receivable are generally more
liquid than inventories, yet there may be doubts regarding their realization into cash
22

immediately or in time. Hence, absolute liquid ratio should also be calculated together
with current ratio and quick ratio so as to exclude even receivables from the current
assets and find out the absolute liquid assets.
Absolute liquid assets
Absolute liquid ratio =
Current liabilities
Absolute liquid assets include cash in hand etc. The acceptable forms for
this ratio is 50% (or) 0.5:1 (or) 1:2 i.e., Rs.1 worth absolute liquid assets are consideredto pay Rs.2 worth current liabilities in time as all the creditors are nor accepted to
demand cash at the same time and then cash may also be realized from debtors and
inventories.

2. LEVERAGE RATIOS
The leverage or solvency ratio refers to the ability of a concern to meet its
long term obligations. Accordingly, long term solvency ratios indicate firms ability to
meet the fixed interest and costs and repayment schedules associated with its long term
borrowings.
The following ratio serves the purpose of determining the solvency of the
concern.
Proprietory ratio
(a) PROPRIETORY RATIO
A variant to the debt-equity ratio is the proprietory ratio which is also
known as equity ratio. This ratio establishes relationship between share holders funds to
total assets of the firm.

3. ACTIVITY RATIOS
Funds are invested in various assets in business to make sales and earn
profits. The efficiency with which assets are managed directly effect the volume of sales.
Activity ratios measure the efficiency (or) effectiveness with which a firm manages its
resources (or) assets. These ratios are also called Turn over ratios because they indicate
the speed with which assets are converted or turned over into sales.
Working capital turnover ratio
Fixed assets turnover ratio
Capital turnover ratio
Current assets to fixed assets ratio
(a) WORKING CAPITAL TURNOVER RATIO
Working capital of a concern is directly related to sales.
Working capital = Current assets - Current liabilities
It indicates the velocity of the utilization of net working capital. This
indicates the no. of times the working capital is turned over in the course of a year. A
higher ratio indicates efficient utilization of working capital and a lower ratio indicates
inefficient utilization.
Working capital turnover ratio=cost of goods sold/working capital.

(b) FIXED ASSETS TURNOVER RATIO
It is also known as sales to fixed assets ratio. This ratio measures the
efficiency and profit earning capacity of the firm. Higher the ratio, greater is the intensive
utilization of fixed assets. Lower ratio means under-utilization of fixed assets.
Cost of Sales
Fixed assets turnover ratio =
Net fixed assets
Cost of Sales = Income from Services
Net Fixed Assets = Fixed Assets - Depreciation

(c) CAPITAL TURNOVER RATIOS
Sometimes the efficiency and effectiveness of the operations are judged
by comparing the cost of sales or sales with amount of capital invested in the business
and not with assets held in the business, though in both cases the same result is expected.
Capital invested in the business may be classified as long-term and short-term capital or
as fixed capital and working capital or Owned Capital and Loaned Capital. All Capital
Turnovers are calculated to study the uses of various types of capital.
Cost of goods sold
Capital turnover ratio =Capital employed
Cost of Goods Sold = Income from Services
Capital Employed = Capital + Reserves & Surplus

(d) CURRENT ASSETS TO FIXED ASSETS RATIO
This ratio differs from industry to industry. The increase in the ratio
means that trading is slack or mechanization has been used. A decline in the ratio means
that debtors and stocks are increased too much or fixed assets are more intensively used.
If current assets increase with the corresponding increase in profit, it will show that the
business is expanding.

4. PROFITABILITY RATIOS
The primary objectives of business undertaking are to earn profits.
Because profit is the engine, that drives the business enterprise.
Net profit ratio
Return on total assets
Reserves and surplus to capital ratio
Earnings per share
Operating profit ratio
Price earning ratio
Return on investments
(a) NET PROFIT RATIO
Net profit ratio establishes a relationship between net profit (after tax) and
sales and indicates the efficiency of the management in manufacturing, selling
administrative and other activities of the firm.
Net profit after tax
Net profit ratio=
Net sales
Net Profit after Tax = Net Profit () Depreciation () Interest () Income Tax
Net Sales = Income from Services
29

It also indicates the firms capacity to face adverse economic conditions
such as price competitors, low demand etc. Obviously higher the ratio, the better is the
profitability.
(b) RETURN ON TOTAL ASSETS
Profitability can be measured in terms of relationship between net profit
and assets. This ratio is also known as profit-to-assets ratio. It measures the profitability
of investments. The overall profitability can be known.
Net profit
Return on assets =
Total assets
Net Profit = Earnings before Interest and Tax
Total Assets = Fixed Assets + Current Assets

(c) RESERVES AND SURPLUS TO CAPITAL RATIO
It reveals the policy pursued by the company with regard to growth shares.
A very high ratio indicates a conservative dividend policy and increased ploughing back
to profit. Higher the ratio better will be the position.
Reserves& surplus
Reserves & surplus to capital =
Capital
(d) EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share is a small verification of return of equity and is
calculated by dividing the net profits earned by the company and those profits after taxes
and preference dividend by total no. of equity shares.
Net profit after taxEarnings per share =
Number of Equity shares
The Earnings per share is a good measure of profitability when compared
with EPS of similar other components (or) companies, it gives a view of the comparative
earnings of a firm.
(e) OPERATING PROFIT RATIO
Operating ratio establishes the relationship between cost of goods sold and
other operating expenses on the one hand and the sales on the other.
Operating cost
Operation ratio =

(f) PRICE - EARNING RATIO
Price earning ratio is the ratio between market price per equity share and
earnings per share. The ratio is calculated to make an estimate of appreciation in the
value of a share of a company and is widely used by investors to decide whether (or) not
to buy shares in a particular company.
Generally, higher the price-earning ratio, the better it is. If the price
earning ratio falls, the management should look into the causes that have resulted into the
fall of the ratio.

(g) RETURN ON INVESTMENTS
Return on share holders investment, popularly known as Return on
investments (or) return on share holders or proprietors funds is the relationship between
net profit (after interest and tax) and the proprietors funds.
Net profit (after interest and tax)
Return on shareholders investment =
Shareholders funds
The ratio is generally calculated as percentages by multiplying the above
with 100.
PRE-REQUISITIES TO RATIO ANALYSIS
In order to use the ratio analysis as device to make purposeful conclusions, there are
certain pre-requisites, which must be taken care of. It may be noted that these
prerequisites are not conditions for calculations for meaningful conclusions. The
accounting figures are inactive in them & can be used for any ratio but meaningful &
correct interpretation & conclusion can be arrived at only if the following points are well
considered.
1) The dates of different financial statements from where data is taken must be same.
2) If possible, only audited financial statements should be considered, otherwise there
must be sufficient evidence that the data is correct.
3) Accounting policies followed by different firms must be same in case of cross section
analysis otherwise the results of the ratio analysis would be distorted.
4) One ratio may not throw light on any performance of the firm. Therefore, a group of
ratios must be preferred. This will be conductive to counter checks.
5) Last but not least, the analyst must find out that the two figures being used to calculate
a ratio must be related to each other, otherwise there is no purpose of calculating a ratio.

IMPORTANCE OF RATIO ANALYSIS:
As a tool of financial management, ratios are of crucial significance. The importance of
ratio analysis lies in the fact that it presents facts on a comparative basis & enables the
drawing of interference regarding the performance of a firm. Ratio analysis is relevant in
assessing the performance of a firm in respect of the following aspects:
1] Liquidity position,
2] Long-term solvency,
3] Operating efficiency,
4] Overall profitability,
5] Inter firm comparison
6] Trend analysis.
1] LIQUIDITY POSITION: -
With the help of Ratio analysis conclusion can be drawn regarding the liquidity position
of a firm. The liquidity position of a firm would be satisfactory if it is able to meet its
current obligation when they become due. A firm can be said to have the ability to meet
its short-term liabilities if it has sufficient liquid funds to pay the interest on its short
maturing debt usually within a year as well as to repay the principal. This ability is
reflected in the liquidity ratio of a firm. The liquidity ratio are particularly useful in credit
analysis by bank & other suppliers of short term loans.
2] LONG TERM SOLVENCY: -
Ratio analysis is equally useful for assessing the long-term financial viability of a firm.
This respect of the financial position of a borrower is of concern to the long-termcreditors, security analyst & the present & potential owners of a business. The long term
solvency is measured by the leverage/ capital structure & profitability ratio Ratio analysis
that focus on earning power & operating efficiency.
Ratio analysis reveals the strength & weaknesses of a firm in this respect. The leverage
ratios, for instance, will indicate whether a firm has a reasonable proportion of various
35
-
7/29/2019 ratio analysis of vpl.
36/60
sources of finance or if it is heavily loaded with debt in which case its solvency is
exposed to serious strain. Similarly the various profitability ratios would reveal whether
or not the firm is able to offer adequate return to its owners consistent with the risk
involved.
3] OPERATING EFFICIENCY:
Yet another dimension of the useful of the ratio analysis, relevant from the viewpoint of
management, is that it throws light on the degree of efficiency in management &
utilization of its assets. The various activity ratios measures this kind of operational
efficiency. In fact, the solvency of a firm is, in the ultimate analysis, dependent upon the
sales revenues generated by the use of its assets- total as well as its components.
4] OVERALL PROFITABILITY:
Unlike the outsides parties, which are interested in one aspect of the financial position of
a firm, the management is constantly concerned about overall profitability of the
enterprise. That is, they are concerned about the ability of the firm to meets its short term
as well as long term obligations to its creditors, to ensure a reasonable return to its
owners & secure optimum utilization of the assets of the firm. This is possible if an
integrated view is taken & all the ratios are considered together.
5] INTER FIRM COMPARISON:
Ratio analysis not only throws light on the financial position of firm but also serves as a
stepping-stone to remedial measures. This is made possible due to inter firm comparison
& comparison with the industry averages. A single figure of a particular ratio is
meaningless unless it is related to some standard or norm. one of the popular techniquesis to compare the ratios of a firm with the industry average. It should be reasonably
expected that the performance of a firm should be in broad conformity with that of the
industry to which it belongs.An inter firm comparison would demonstrate the firms
position vice-versa its competitors. If the results are at variance either with the industry
36
-
7/29/2019 ratio analysis of vpl.
37/60
average or with the those of the competitors, the firm can seek to identify the probable
reasons & in light, take remedial measures.
6] TREND ANALYSIS:
Finally, ratio analysis enables a firm to take the time dimension into account. In other
words, whether the financial position of a firm is improving or deteriorating over the
years. This is made possible by the use of trend analysis. The significance of the trend
analysis of ratio lies in the fact that the analysts can know the direction of movement, that
is, whether the movement is favorable or unfavorable. For example, the ratio may be low
as compared to the norm but the trend may be upward. On the other hand, though the
present level may be satisfactory but the trend may be a declining one.
PURPOSE OF RATIO ANLYSIS:
1] To identify aspects of a businesses performance to aid decision making
2] Quantitative process may need to be supplemented by qualitative Factors to get a
complete picture.
3] 5 main areas:-
Liquidity the ability of the firm to pay its way
Investment/shareholders information to enable decisions to be made on the extent
of the risk and the earning potential of a business investment
Gearing information on the relationship between the exposure of the business to
loans as opposed to share capital
Profitability how effective the firm is at generating profits given sales and or its
capital assets
Financial the rate at which the company sells its stock and the efficiency withwhich it uses its assets
ROLE OF RATIO ANALYSIS:
It is true that the technique of ratio analysis is not a creative technique in the sense that it
uses the same figure & information, which is already appearing in the financial
37
-
7/29/2019 ratio analysis of vpl.
38/60
statement. At the same time, it is true that what can be achieved by the technique of ratio
analysis cannot be achieved by the mere preparation of financial statement. Ratio
analysis helps to appraise the firm in terms of their profitability & efficiency of
performance, either individually or in relation to those of other firms in the same
industry. The process of this appraisal is not complete until the ratio so computed can be
compared with something, as the ratio all by them do not mean anything. This
comparison may be in the form of intra firm comparison, inter firm comparison or
comparison with standard ratios. Thus proper comparison of ratios may reveal where a
firm is placed as compared with earlier period or in comparison with the other firms in
the same industry. Ratio analysis is one of the best possible techniques available to the
management to impart the basic functions like planning & control. As the future is
closely related to the immediate past, ratio calculated on the basis of historical financial
statements may be of good assistance to predict the future. Ratio analysis also helps to
locate & point out the various areas, which need the management attention in order to
improve the situation. As the ratio analysis is concerned with all the aspect of a firms
financial analysis i.e. liquidity, solvency, activity, profitability & overall performance, it
enables the interested persons to know the financial & operational characteristics of an
organisation & take the suitable decision.
ADVANTAGES OF RATIO ANALYSIS:
With the help of the ratio you can predict financial position of the company.
After showing the ratio its easy for bank to work with a company
We can compare two firm after seen there ratio
Its help to forecasting and make future plan of the company
With the help of the ratio we can locate the weak spot or problem of the company
Its also help in cost control in the firm
With the help of the ratio employee can know about the company and its helping in
their job.

LIMITATIONS OF RATIO ANALYSIS
Ratio analysis has its limitations. These limitations are described below:
1] Information problems
Ratios require quantitative information for analysis but it is not decisive about
analytical output .
The figures in a set of accounts are likely to be at least several months out of date, and
so might not give a proper indication of the companys current financial position.
Where historical cost convention is used, asset valuations in the balance sheet could
be misleading. Ratios based on this information will not be very useful for decision-
making.
2] Comparison of performance over time
When comparing performance over time, there is need to consider the changes in
price. The movement in performance should be in line with the changes in price.
When comparing performance over time, there is need to consider the changes in
technology. The movement in performance should be in line with the changes in
technology.
Changes in accounting policy may affect the comparison of results between different
accounting years as misleading.
3] Inter-firm comparison
Companies may have different capital structures and to make comparison of
performance when one is all equity financed and another is a geared company it may not
be a good analysis.Selective application of government incentives to various companies may also distort
intercompany comparison. comparing the performance of two enterprises may be
misleading.
Inter-firm comparison may not be useful unless the firms compared are of the same
size and age, and employ similar production methods and accounting practices.
39
-
7/29/2019 ratio analysis of vpl.
40/60
Even within a company, comparisons can be distorted by changes in the price level.
Ratios provide only quantitative information, not qualitative information.
Ratios are calculated on the basis of past financial statements. They do not indicate
future trends and they do not consider economic conditions.
Review of previous study
Ratio-analysis is a concept or technique which is as old as accounting concept. Financial
analysis is a scientific tool. It has assumed important role as a tool for appraising the real
worth of an enterprise, its performance during a period of time and its pit falls. Financial
analysis is a vital apparatus for the interpretation of financial statements. It also helps to
find out any cross-sectional and time series linkages between various ratios.Unlike in the past when security was considered to be sufficient consideration for banks
and financial institutions to grant loans and advances, nowadays the entire lending is
need-based and the emphasis is on the financial viability of a proposal and not only on
security alone. Further all business decision contains an element of risk. The risk is more
in the case of decisions relating to credits. Ratio analysis and other quantitative
techniques facilitate assessment of this risk.
Trend ratio involve a comparison of the ratio of a firm over time, that is present ratio are
compared with past ratio for the same firm. The comparison of the profitability of a firm,
say year 1 though 5 is an illustration of a trend ratio. Trend ratio indicate the direction of
change in the performance-improvement, deterioration or constancy-over the years.

relatively low current ratio represents that the liquidity position of the firm is not good
and the firm shall not be able to pay its current liabilities in time without facing
difficulties. Current ratio has moved down from 1.02 to 0.44, which indicates that there
has been deterioration in the liquidity position of VARDHMAN. As a rule of thumb or as

Debt Equity Ratio 2.43 4.12
Interpretation:
The D/E ratio is an important tool of financial analysis to appraise the financial structure
of a firm. It has important implication from the view point of the creditors, owners, and
47
-
7/29/2019 ratio analysis of vpl.
48/60
the firm itself. The ratio reflect the relative contribution of creditors and owners of
business in its financing. A high ratio shows a large share of financing by the creditors of
the firm, a low ratio implies a small claim of creditors.
The rate of debt equity ratio is increased from 2.43 to 4.12 during the year 2010-2011 to
2011-2012. This shows that with the increase in debt, the shareholders fund also
increased. This shows long-term capital structure. The lower ratio viewed as favorable
from long term creditors point of view.

-
7/29/2019 ratio analysis of vpl.
49/60
Inventory stock turnover ratio measure how quickly inventory is sold. It is a test of
efficient inventory management. To judge whether the ratio of a firm is satisfactory or
not, higher ratio shows efficient use of inventory.
As we can see from the graph that in the year 2010--2011 to 2011-2012 is 6.68 to 8.53 so
we can say that inventory is converted into finished goods highest in this year which
indicate the highest efficient use of the inventory.

Debtors turnover Ratio 9.75 15.60
Interpretation:
The analysis of the debtors turnover ratio supplements the information regarding the
liquidity of one item of current asset of the firm. The ratio measure how rapidly debts are
collected. A higher ratio is indicator of shorter time lag between credit sales and cash
sales.
49
-
7/29/2019 ratio analysis of vpl.
50/60
The Debtors turnover ratio of 15.60 indicates that the debtors are being turned over 15.60
times during the year. It means that the credit cycle of debtors makes 15.60 rounds during
the year. The Debtors turnover ratio is increase during the year 2010-2011 to 2011-2012,
which indicates that the debts are being collected at a fast speed during the year. The
operating cycle of the debtors is short. In other words the debts collection period is short
which result into less chance of bad debts.

Interpretation:
This ratio indicates the number of times the working capital is turned over in the course
of year. This ratio measures the efficiency with which the working capital is being used
by a firm.A higher ratio indicates efficient utilization and low ratio indicates otherwise.
But a very high ratio is not a good situation for any firm and hence care must be taken
while interpreting the ratio. In 2011-2012 the ratio is decreased, so this is not good for
the company

This ratio shows a relation between sales and inventory. It shows the no of time an inventory
is converted in to sales over a year. Altogether the inventory turnover ratio means lesser the
stock as compare to sales where as lesser the inventory turnover ratio means more inventory
in stock.
As we can see that in the year2011-12 ratio is that is lower than 2010-11 that is 0.19. That
means investment in inventory is decrease, which gives bad indication and in 2010-11 is
good indication because investment is increase .The position of year shows a downward
trend, which means that the enterprise is investing more in its inventories as compare to its
sale.

Interpretation: This ratio indicates the efficiency with which current asset turn into sales. A
higher ratio implies by and large more efficient use of fund. Thus a high turnover ratio
indicates reduced lock-up of fund in current assets. An analysis of this ratio over a period of
time reflects working capital management of a firm.
Current assets turn over ratio is good for the years of2011-12. For the year2010-11 it was
decreasebecause companys current assets are higher than its liability.
But we can say that the companys position is better then the last year.

The cash ratio is perhaps the most stringent measure of liquidity indeed. One can argue that it
is overly stringent lack of immediate can may not matter it. The firm can starch its payment
or borrow many of short notice cash and bank balance and short term marketable security
and liable assets of firm financial analysis looks at cash ratio which is define.
Management has to maintain a level of cash ratio so that cash is required urgently they can
get it. Too high level of cash loss the opportunity to earn interest on that capital.
We can see that Cash ratio is initially high in the year of2010-2011that is 0.13. But its start
decreasing from next year. it was 0.037. This level is well and good for the company.

Interpretation:
Earning per share is calculated to find out overall profitability of the company. Earning
per share represents the earning of the company whether or not dividends are declared.
The Earning per share is -50.12 means company had suffer huge losses in 2011-2012. In
other words the shareholder does not earned any dividend..
Therefore the shareholders earning per share is decreased from 2010-2011 to 2011-2012
by 20.02 to -50.12. This shows it is capital depreciation per unit share.

Interpretation:
The return on capital employed shows the relationship between profit & investment. Its
purpose is to measure the overall profitability from the total funds made available by the
owner & lenders. The return on capital employed of Rs.-0.86 indicate that company has
not available to take care of interest, tax,& appropriation in 2011- 2012. The return on
capital employed is show-decreasing trend, i.e. from 0.15 to -0.86. All of sudden in one
year. This indicates a company suffers very high loss in2011-2012

Conclusion
The focus of financial analysis is on key figures contained in the financial statements and
the significant relationship that exits.. Financial ratios are a useful by product of financial
statement and provide standardized measures of firms financial position, profitability and
risky. It is an important and powerful tool in the hands of financial analyst. By analyzing
the balance sheet we conclude that any change in the working capital will have an effect
on a business's cash flows. A positive change in working capital indicates that the
business has paid out cash, for example in purchasing or converting inventory, paying
creditors etc. Hence, an increase in working capital will have a negative effect on the
business's cash holding. However, a negative change in working capital indicates lower
funds to pay off short term liabilities (current liabilities), which may have bad
repercussions to the future of the company.The profitability position of the firm is very
bad it has not enough profits because of high prices of cotton at the time of purchase and
a sudden fall in prices at the time of sale of the finished product.. The study of ratio
analysis concludes that the company needs more working capital to meet its commitment.
The organization doesnt have sufficient funds to meet its current obligation at time when
arise which is due to its low working capital and inefficient management of funds.

Suggestions
1. The firm need to do some efforts to improve its liquidity position.
2. The firm need to focus more on the use of working capital.
3. The firm should increase its own equity rather than depending on outside sources.
4. The firm should raise its current assets.
5. It should maintain the reserves for future contingencies.
Limitations of Study:
During the study of this project some limitation I have found which are as below,
It is quite hard to find various items from the balance sheet.
Being a Private organization sometimes it gets difficult to get the information.
Price level over the years goes on changing, therefore, the ratios of various yearscannot be compared.

Available information for the study of ratio analysis is limited.
From the study of ratio analysis, I have found that it is a very difficult task
to maintain ideal ratios in such a big organization. There are various factors
affecting while managing ratio analysis like credit policy, inventory management
system , production cycle etc. But it is very important to manage it every
situation.
