PREFACE

In the broad sense training is necessary to make the students of professional institutions familiar with the industrial environment. This not only helps professionals to speedily accommodate themselves in industries but also to have better usage of their studies.

To be dynamic, strategic and work aggressively they need to know the policies, procedures and trends going in the present industrial environment apart from their studies. The training fulfills all these needs.

Whether it is the question of demonstrating a modernized procedure, step by step to an old production hand or guiding a new division head through the intricacies of preparing his own budget, the responsible supervisor or manager must make the trainee learn and communicate.

The purpose and objective of the study is to analyze the different aspect of financial position of the organization and list out the suggestions based on the studies.

The main source of the study is secondary data collected from the annual and other public reports and other information received from Institute Of Co-operative & Corporate, Management, Research and Training, Lucknow.

The analysis of the data is carried out by the various modern and standard tools to achieve the objective of the study.

Power Generation -

Presently, NTPC generates power from Coal and Gas. With an installed capacity of 28840

MW, NTPC is the largest power generating major in the country. It has also diversified into

hydro power, coal mining, power equipment manufacturing, oil & gas exploration, power

trading & distribution. With an increasing presence in the power value chain, NTPC is well

on its way to becoming an “Integrated Power Major.”

in the like period the previous fiscal. The company said its board has recommended a final

dividend at 8 percent of the paid-up equity capital in addition to the 28 percent interim

dividend paid in February. (IANS)

Business strengths of NTPC

In over 30 years of its existence, this huge power conglomerate has emerged as the world's

most efficient electricity generator. It's is this consistency in performance that made the

government look at NTPC for help turn around some other sick power companies, instead of

going to some management consultants or privatizing it.

NTPC did the government proud. One of these hopeless power plants was located in

Unchahar in Uttar Pradesh, which has actually emerged as the world's best. It has won the

prestigious 'Asian Power plant of the Year' award in 2006.

It's truly teamwork that keeps an organization of 25,000 employees working in 25 plants

across the country, going from strength to strength.

INTRODUCTION OF TOPIC

- Meaning of ratio- What is Ratio Analysis.???- Advantage of Ratio Analysis- Limitations of Ratio Analysis- Classification of Ratio Analysis

30

Page 31: Ratio Analysis

Meaning of Ratio-

A ratio is simple arithmetical expression of the relationship of one number to another. It may be defined as the indicated quotient of two mathematical expressions.

According to Accountant’s Handbook by Wixom, Kell and Bedford, “a ratio is an expression of the quantitative relationship between two numbers”.

 Ratio Analysis:-

Ratio analysis is the process of determining and presenting the relationship of items and

group of items in the statements. According to Batty J. Management Accounting “Ratio can

assist management in its basic functions of forecasting, planning coordination, control and

communication”.

 It is helpful to know about the liquidity, solvency, capital structure and profitability of an

organization. It is helpful tool to aid in applying judgment, otherwise complex situations.

Ratio may be expressed in the following three ways:

1.     Pure Ratio or Simple Ratio:-

It is expressed by the simple division of one number by another. For example, if the current

assets of a business are Rs. 200000 and its current liabilities are Rs. 100000, the ratio of

‘Current assets to current liabilities’ will be 2:1.

2.     ‘Rate’ or ‘So Many Times:-

In this type , it is calculated how many times a figure is, in comparison to another figure. For

example , if a firm’s credit sales during the year are Rs. 200000 and its debtors at the end of

the year are Rs. 40000 , its Debtors Turnover Ratio is 200000/40000 = 5 times. It shows that

the credit sales are 5 times in comparison to debtors.

31

Page 32: Ratio Analysis

3.     Percentage:-

In this type, the relation between two figures is expressed in hundredth. For example, if a

firm’s capital is Rs.1000000 and its profit is Rs.200000 the ratio of profit capital, in term of

percentage, is 200000/1000000*100 = 20%

ADVANTAGE OF RATIO ANALYSIS:-

There are various groups of people who are

interested in analysis of financial position of a company. They use the ratio analysis to work

out a particular financial characteristic of the company in which they are interested. Ratio

analysis helps the various groups in the following manner:

1-To workout the profitability: Accounting ratio help to measure the profitability of the

business by calculating the various profitability ratios. It helps the management to know

about the earning capacity of the business concern. In this way profitability ratios show the

actual performance of the business.

2-To workout the solvency: With the help of solvency ratios, solvency of the company can

be measured. These ratios show the relationship between the liabilities and assets. In case

external liabilities are more than that of the assets of the company, it shows the unsound

position of the business. In this case the business has to make it possible to repay its loans.

3- Helpful in analysis of financial statement: Ratio analysis help the outsiders just like

creditors, shareholders, debenture-holders, bankers to know about the profitability and ability

of the company to pay them interest and dividend etc.

4-Helpful in comparative analysis of the performance: With the help of ratio analysis a

company may have comparative study of its performance to the previous years. In this way

company comes to know about its weak point and be able to improve them.

5-To simplify the accounting information: Accounting ratios are very useful as they briefly

summarize the result of detailed and complicated computations.

32

Page 33: Ratio Analysis

6-To workout the operating efficiency: Ratio analysis helps to workout the operating

efficiency of the company with the help of various turnover ratios. All turnover ratios are

worked out to evaluate the performance of the business in utilizing the resources.

7-To workout short-term financial position: Ratio analysis helps to workout the short-term

financial position of the company with the help of liquidity ratios. In case short-term financial

position is not healthy efforts are made to improve it.

8-Helpful for forecasting purposes: Accounting ratios indicate the trend of the business.

The trend is useful for estimating future. With the help of previous years’ ratios, estimates for

future can be made. In this way these ratios provide the basis for preparing budgets and also

determine future line of action.

Limitations of Ratio Analysis-

In spite of many advantages, there are certain limitations

of the ratio analysis techniques and they should be kept in mind while using them in

interpreting financial statements. The following are the main limitations of accounting ratios:

1-Limited Comparability: Different firms apply different accounting policies. Therefore the

ratio of one firm can not always be compared with the ratio of other firm. Some firms may

value the closing stock on LIFO basis while some other firms may value on FIFO basis.

Similarly there may be difference in providing depreciation of fixed assets or certain of

provision for doubtful debts etc.

2-False Results: Accounting ratios are based on data drawn from accounting records. In case

that data is correct, then only the ratios will be correct. For example, valuation of stock is

based on very high price, the profits of the concern will be inflated and it will indicate a

wrong financial position. The data therefore must be absolutely correct.

3-Effect of Price Level Changes: Price level changes often make the comparison of figures

difficult over a period of time. Changes in price affect the cost of production, sales and also

the value of assets. Therefore, it is necessary to make proper adjustment for price-level

changes before any comparison.

33

Page 34: Ratio Analysis

4-Qualitative factors are ignored: Ratio analysis is a technique of quantitative analysis and

thus, ignores qualitative factors, which may be important in decision making. For example,

average collection period may be equal to standard credit period, but some debtors may be in

the list of doubtful debts, which is not disclosed by ratio analysis.

5-Effect of window-dressing: In order to cover up their bad financial position some

companies resort to window dressing. They may record the accounting data according to the

convenience to show the financial position of the company in a better way.

6-Costly Technique: Ratio analysis is a costly technique and can be used by big business

houses. Small business units are not able to afford it.

7-Misleading Results: In the absence of absolute data, the result may be misleading. For

example, the gross profit of two firms is 25%. Whereas the profit earned by one is just Rs.

5,000 and sales are Rs. 20,000 and profit earned by the other one is Rs. 10, 00,000 and sales

are Rs. 40, 00,000. Even the profitability of the two firms is same but the magnitude of their

business is quite different.

8-Absence of standard university accepted terminology: There are no standard ratios,

which are universally accepted for comparison purposes. As such, the significance of ratio

analysis technique is reduced.

CLASSIFICATION OF RATIO

LIQUIDITY RATIOS

Liquidity Ratios are ratios that come off the Balance Sheet and hence measure the liquidity of

the company as on a particular day i.e. the day that the Balance Sheet was prepared. These

ratios are important in measuring the ability of a company to meet both its short term and

long term obligations.

1) Current Ratio:

This ratio is obtained by dividing the 'Total Current Assets' of a company by its 'Total

Current Liabilities'. The ratio is regarded as a test of liquidity for a company. It expresses the

'working capital' relationship of current assets available to meet the company's current

obligations.

Formula:

Total Current Assets/ Total Current Liabilities

2) Quick Ratio:

This ratio is obtained by dividing the 'Total Quick Assets' of a company by its 'Total Current

Liabilities'. Sometimes a company could be carrying heavy inventory as part of its current

assets, which might be obsolete or slow moving. Thus eliminating inventory from current

assets and then doing the liquidity test is measured by this ratio. The ratio is regarded as an

acid test of liquidity for a company. It expresses the true 'working capital' relationship of its

cash, accounts receivables, prepaid and notes receivables available to meet the company's

current obligations.

Formula:

35

Page 36: Ratio Analysis

Quick Ratio = Total Quick Assets/ Total Current Liabilities

Quick Assets = Total Current Assets (minus) Inventory

3) Debt to Equity Ratio:

This ratio is obtained by dividing the 'Total Liability or Debt ' of a company by its 'Owners

Equity or Net Worth'. The ratio measures how the company is leveraging its debt against the

capital employed by its owners. If the liabilities exceed the net worth then in that case the

creditors have more stake than the shareowners.

Formula:

Total Liabilities / Owners Equity or Net Worth

PROFITABILITY RATIOS

Profitability Ratios show how successful a company is in terms of generating returns or

profits on the Investment that it has made in the business. If a business is liquid and efficient

it should also be Profitable.

1) Return on Sales or Profit Margin (%):

The Profit Margin of a company determines its ability to withstand competition and adverse

conditions like rising costs, falling prices or declining sales in the future. The ratio measures

the percentage of profits earned per dollar of sales and thus is a measure of efficiency of the

company.

Formula:- (Net Profit / Net Sales) x 100

36

Page 37: Ratio Analysis

2) Return on Assets:

The Return on Assets of a company determines its ability to utilize the Assets employed in

the company efficiently and effectively to earn a good return. The ratio measures the

percentage of profits earned per dollar of Asset and thus is a measure of efficiency of the

company in generating profits on its Assets.

Formula: - (Net Profit / Total Assets) x 100

3) Return on Equity or Net Worth:

Return on equity (ROE) measures the rate of return on the ownership interest (shareholders'

equity) of the common stock owners. It measures a firm's efficiency at generating profits

from every unit of shareholders' equity (also known as net assets or assets minus liabilities).

ROE shows how well a company uses investment funds to generate earnings growth. ROEs

between 15% and 20% are generally considered good.

Its calculated as:

ROE = Net Income (After Tax)/Shareholders Equity.

ROE is equal to a fiscal year's net income (after preferred stock dividends but before common

stock dividends) divided by total equity (excluding preferred shares), expressed as a

percentage. As with many financial ratios, ROE is best used to compare companies in the

same industry. High ROE yields no immediate benefit. Since stock prices are most strongly

determined by earnings per share (EPS), you will be paying twice as much (in Price/Book

terms) for a 20% ROE Company as for a 10% ROE company.

37

Page 38: Ratio Analysis

The DuPont Formula

The DuPont formula, also known as the strategic profit model, is a common way to break

down ROE into three important components. Essentially, ROE will equal the net margin

multiplied by asset turnover multiplied by financial leverage. Splitting return on equity into

three parts makes it easier to understand changes in ROE over time. For example, if the net

margin increases, every sale brings in more money, resulting in a higher overall ROE.

Similarly, if the asset turnover increases, the firm generates more sales for every unit of

assets owned, again resulting in a higher overall ROE. Finally, increasing financial leverage

means that the firm uses more debt financing relative to equity financing. Interest payments

to creditors are tax deductible, but dividend payments to shareholders are not. Thus, a higher

proportion of debt in the firm's capital structure leads to higher ROE. Financial leverage

benefits diminish as the risk of defaulting on interest payments increases. So if the firm takes

on too much debt, the cost of debt rises as creditors demand a higher risk premium, and ROE

decreases. Increased debt will make a positive contribution to a firm's ROE only if the

matching Return on assets (ROA) of that debt exceeds the interest rate on the debt.

ROE = Net Income/Sales*Sales/Total Assets*Total Assets/Average

Shareholders’ Equity

Page 39: Ratio Analysis

MANAGEMENT EFFICIENCY RATIOS -

Efficiency ratios are ratios that come off the Balance Sheet and the Income Statement and

therefore incorporate one dynamic statement, the income statement and one static statement,

the balance sheet. These ratios are important in measuring the efficiency of a company in

either turning their inventory, sales, assets, accounts receivables or payables. It also ties into

the ability of a company to meet both its short term and long term obligations. This is because

if they do not get paid on time how will you get paid on time. You may have perhaps heard

the excuse 'I will pay you when I get paid' or 'my customers have not paid me!'

1) DSO (Days Sales Outstanding):

The Days Sales Outstanding ratio shows both the average time it takes to turn the receivables

into cash and the age, in terms of days, of a company's accounts receivable. The ratio is

regarded as a test of Efficiency for a company. The effectiveness with which it converts its

receivables into cash. This ratio is of particular importance to credit and collection associates.

Best Possible DSO yields insight into delinquencies since it uses only the current portion of

receivables. As a measurement, the closer the regular DSO is to the Best Possible DSO, the

closer the receivables are to the optimal level.

Best Possible DSO requires three pieces of information for calculation:

a) Current Receivables

b) Total credit sales for the period analyzed

c) The Number of days in the period analyzed

Formula:

Best Possible DSO = Current Receivables/Total Credit Sales X Number of Days

Regular DSO = (Total Accounts Receivables/Total Credit Sales) x Number of Days in

the period that is being analyzed

39

Page 40: Ratio Analysis

2) Inventory Turnover Ratio:

This ratio is obtained by dividing the 'Total Sales' of a company by its 'Total Inventory'. The

ratio is regarded as a test of Efficiency and indicates the rapidity with which the company is

able to move its merchandise.

Formula:

Inventory Turnover Ratio = Net Sales / Inventory

Inventory Turnover Ratio = Cost of Goods Sold / Inventory

3) Accounts Payable to Sales (%):

This ratio is obtained by dividing the 'Accounts Payables' of a company by its 'Annual Net

Sales'. This ratio gives you an indication as to how much of their supplier’s money does this

company use in order to fund its Sales. Higher the ratio means that the company is using its

suppliers as a source of cheap financing. The working capital of such companies could be

funded by their suppliers..

Formula:

Accounts Payables to Sales Ratio = [Accounts Payables / Net Sales] x 100

40

Page 41: Ratio Analysis

INVESTMENT VALUATION RATIO

1) Price/Book Value Ratio:

A valuation ratio used by investors which compares a stock's per-share price (market value)

to its book value (shareholders' equity). The price-to-book value ratio, expressed as a multiple

(i.e. how many times a company's stock is trading per share compared to the company's book

value per share), is an indication of how much shareholders are paying for the net assets of a

company. 

The book value of a company is the value of a company's assets expressed on the balance

sheet. It is the difference between the balance sheet assets and balance sheet liabilities and is

an estimation of the value if it were to be liquidated. 

The price/book value ratio, often expressed simply as "price-to-book", provides investors a

way to compare the market value, or what they are paying for each share, to a conservative

measure of the value of the firm. 

Formula:

2) Price/Cash Flow Ratio:-

The price/cash flow ratio is used by investors to evaluate the investment attractiveness, from

a value standpoint, of a company's stock. This metric compares the stock's market price to the

amount of cash flow the company generates on a per-share basis.

This ratio is similar to the price/earnings ratio, except that the price/cash flow ratio (P/CF) is

seen by some as a more reliable basis than earnings per share to evaluate the acceptability, or

lack thereof, of a stock's current pricing. The argument for using cash flow over earnings is

that the former is not easily manipulated, while the same cannot be said for earnings, which,

unlike cash flow, are affected by depreciation and other non-cash factors.

41

Page 42: Ratio Analysis

Formula:

3) Price/Earnings Ratio:

The price/earnings ratio (P/E) is the best known of the investment valuation indicators. The

P/E ratio has its imperfections, but it is nevertheless the most widely reported and used

valuation by investment professionals and the investing public. The financial reporting of

both companies and investment research services use a basic earnings per share (EPS) figure

divided into the current stock price to calculate the P/E multiple (i.e. how many times a stock

is trading (its price) per each dollar of EPS).

It's not surprising that estimated EPS figures are often very optimistic during bull markets,

while reflecting pessimism during bear markets. Also, as a matter of historical record, it's no

secret that the accuracy of stock analyst earnings estimates should be looked at skeptically by

investors. Nevertheless, analyst estimates and opinions based on forward-looking projections

of a company's earnings do play a role in Wall Street's stock-pricing considerations. 

Historically, the average P/E ratio for the broad market has been around 15, although it can

fluctuate significantly depending on economic and market conditions. The ratio will also vary

widely among different companies and

industries.

Formula:

4) Price/Earnings to Growth Ratio:

42

Page 43: Ratio Analysis

The price/earnings to growth ratio, commonly referred to as the PEG ratio, is obviously

closely related to the P/E ratio. The PEG ratio is a refinement of the P/E ratio and factors in a

stock's estimated earnings growth into its current valuation. By comparing a stock's P/E ratio

with its projected, or estimated, earnings per share (EPS) growth, investors are given insight

into the degree of overpricing or under pricing of a stock's current valuation, as indicated by

the traditional P/E ratio.

The general consensus is that if the PEG ratio indicates a value of 1, this means that

the market is correctly valuing (the current P/E ratio) a stock in accordance with the stock's

current estimated earnings per share growth. If the PEG ratio is less than 1, this means that

EPS growth is potentially able to surpass the market's current valuation. In other words, the

stock's price is being undervalued. On the other hand, stocks with high PEG ratios can

indicate just the opposite - that the stock is currently overvalued.

Formula:

5) Price/Sales Ratio:

A stock's price/sales ratio (P/S ratio) is another stock valuation indicator similar to the P/E

ratio. The P/S ratio measures the price of a company's stock against its annual sales, instead

of earnings. 

Like the P/E ratio, the P/S reflects how many times investors are paying for every dollar of a

company's sales. Since earnings are subject, to one degree or another, to accounting estimates

and management manipulation, many investors consider a company's sales (revenue) figure a

more reliable ratio component in calculating a stock's price multiple than the earnings figure. 

Formula:

43

Page 44: Ratio Analysis

6) Dividend Yield:

A stock's dividend yield is expressed as an annual percentage and is calculated as the

company's annual cash dividend per share divided by the current price of the stock. The

dividend yield is found in the stock quotes of dividend-paying companies. Investors should

note that stock quotes record the per share dollar amount of a company's latest quarterly

declared dividend. This quarterly dollar amount is annualized and compared to the current

stock price to generate the per annum dividend yield, which represents an expected return. 

Income investors value a dividend-paying stock, while growth investors have little interest in

dividends, preferring to capture large capital gains. Whatever your investing style, it is a

matter of historical record that dividend-paying stocks have performed better than non-

paying-dividend stocks over the long term. 

Formula:

7) Enterprise Value Multiple:

This valuation metric is calculated by dividing a company's "enterprise value" by its earnings

before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA).Overall, this

measurement allows investors to assess a company on the same basis as that of an acquirer.

As a rough calculation, enterprise values multiple serves as a proxy for how long it would

take for an acquisition to earn enough to pay off its costs (assuming no change in EBITDA).

44

Page 45: Ratio Analysis

Formula:

8) DEBT COVERAGE RATIO:

The Debt Coverage Ratio is also known as Debt Service Coverage Ratio or DSCR.  The debt

coverage ratio or DCR is a widely used benchmark which measures an income producing

property's ability to cover the monthly mortgage payments.  The DCR is calculated by

dividing the net operating income (NOI) by a property's annual debt service.  Annual debt

service equals the annual total of all interest and principal paid for all loans on a property.  A

debt coverage ratio of less than 1 indicates that the income generated by a property is

insufficient to cover the mortgage payments and operating expenses.

For example, a DCR of .9 indicates a negative income.  There is only enough

income available after paying operating expenses to pay 90% of the annual mortgage

payments

or debt service.  A property with a DCR of 1.25 generates 1.25 times as much annual income

as the annual debt service on the property.  In this example, the property produces 25% more

income (NOI) than is required to pay the annual debt service and operating expenses.

Formula:

Net Operating Income / Annual Debt Service

CASH FLOW INDICATOR RATIO

Cash flow indicators, focus on the cash being generated in terms of how much is being

generated and the safety net that it provides to the company. These ratios can give users

45

Page 46: Ratio Analysis

another look at the financial health and performance of a company. The ratios in this section

use cash flow compared to other company metrics to determine how much cash they are

generating from their sales, the amount of cash they are generating free and clear, and the

amount of cash they have to cover obligations.

1) Operating Cash Flow / Sales Ratio:

This ratio, which is expressed as a percentage, compares a company's operating cash flow to

its net sales or revenues, which gives investors an idea of the company's ability to turn sales

into cash.

It would be worrisome to see a company's sales grow without a parallel growth in operating

cash flow. Positive and negative changes in a company's terms of sale and/or the collection

experience of its accounts receivable will show up in this indicator.

Formula:

2) Free Cash Flow/ Operating Cash Flow Ratio:

The free cash flow/operating cash flow ratio measures the relationship between free cash

flow and operating cash flow. Free cash flow is most often defined as operating cash flow

minus capital expenditures, which, in analytical terms, are considered to be an essential

outflow of funds to maintain a company's competitiveness and efficiency. The cash flow

remaining after this deduction is considered "free" cash flow, which becomes available to a

company to use for expansion, acquisitions, and/or financial stability to weather difficult

market conditions. The higher the percentage of free cash flow embedded in a company's

operating cash flow, the greater the financial strength of the company. 

Formula:

46

Page 47: Ratio Analysis

3) Cash Flow Coverage Ratio:

This ratio measures the ability of the company's operating cash flow to meet its obligations -

including its liabilities or ongoing concern costs.  The operating cash flow is simply the

amount of cash generated by the company from its main operations, which are used to keep

the business funded. The larger the operating cash flow coverage for these items, the greater

the company's ability to meet its obligations, along with giving the company more cash flow

to expand its business, withstand hard times, and not be burdened by debt servicing and the

restrictions typically included in credit agreements.

Formulas:

47

Page 48: Ratio Analysis

4) Dividend Payout Ratio:

This ratio identifies the percentage of earnings (net income) per common share allocated to

paying cash dividend to shareholders. The dividend payout ratio is an indicator of how well

earnings support the dividend payment. Here's how dividends "start" and "end." During a

fiscal year quarter, a company's board of directors declares a dividend. This event triggers the

posting of a current liability for "dividends payable." At the end of the quarter, net income is

credited to a company's retained earnings, and assuming there's sufficient cash on hand

and/or from current operating cash flow, the dividend is paid out. This reduces cash, and the

dividends payable liability is eliminated. The payment of a cash dividend is recorded in the

statement of cash flows under the "financing activities" section.

INTERPRETATION OF RATIOS

LIQUIDITY RATIO-

NTPC is maintaining a higher liquidity ratio, e.g. current ratio with TATA POWER and RELIANCE which means it has a margin of safety to pay off its short term obligations.

The current ratio of NTPC on 2010-11 is 2.59, for TATA is 2.02 and for RELAINCE is 1.56.

It indicates that NTPC has less current liabilities as compared to current assets. Current assets

are 2.5 times more than current liabilities and others i.e. TATA POWER and RELAINCE

have more current liabilities than current assets.

66

Page 67: Ratio Analysis

NTPC has more liquid assets than TATA POWER and RELAINCE .Here, more liquid assets

denote cash and bank balances, debtors etc.NTPC has 2.23 quick ratio as compared to TATA

POWER which has 1.14 and Reliance which has 1.93.As there is a comparison among 3, we

see that NTPC is better.

and Reliance 2.93.So, this indicates that debtors of NTPC are realizable in earlier time as

compared to other.

Page 68: Ratio Analysis

Debtors Turnover Ratio

NTPC‘s Debtors Turnover ratio is better than TATA POWER and Reliance .NTPC has 7.54

in comparison to Tata which has 3.49 and Reliance which has 2.98.

This ratio indicates the speed with which the amount is collected from debtors. The higher the

ratio, the better it is, since it indicates that amount from debtors is being collected more

quickly. The more quickly the debtors pay, the less the risk from bad- debts, and so the lower

the expenses of collection and increase in the liquidity of the firm.

Inventory turnover ratio shows the movement of inventory. Thus, NTPC‘s inventory ratio is better than TATA POWER and Reliance which has its ratios respectively 29.18, 13.12 and 17.79.

This ratio shows the number of times a company’s inventory is turned into sales. Investment in inventory represents idle cash. The lesser the inventory, the greater the cash available for meeting operating needs. Besides, lean, fast-moving inventory runs a lower risk of obsolescence and reduces interest, insurance and storage charges. High inventory turnover is a sign of efficient inventory management.

This ratio measures the margin of profit available on sales. The higher the gross profit ratio,

the better it is. No ideal standard is fixed for this ratio, but the gross profit ratio should be

adequate enough not only to cover the operating expenses but also to provide for

depreciation, interest on loans, dividends and creation of reserves.

Here NTPC has 18.49% gross profit margin ratio which is better than Reliance’s -3.79% and

Tata power’s 14.60%.

has better net profit margin ratio that is 18.06 in comparison to NTPC which has 15.85 and

Tata Power which has 12.76.

The Profit Margin of a company determines its ability to withstand competition and adverse

conditions like rising costs, falling prices or declining sales in the future. The ratio measures

the percentage of profits earned per dollar of sales and thus is a measure of efficiency of the

company.

The higher the asset turnover indicates that the enterprise is managing its assets efficiently

while a low asset turnover implies the presence of more assets than a business needs for its

operations.

TATA POWER has 0.66 ratios as compared to NTPC 0.76 and Reliance 0.10. This indicates

that TATA POWER and NTPC are managing their assets efficiently as compared to

Reliance.

This ratio is particular importance in manufacturing concerns where the investment in fixed

asset is quite high. Compared with the previous year, if there is increase in this ratio, it will

indicate that there is better utilization of fixed assets. If there is a fall in this ratio, it will show

that fixed assets have not been used as efficiently, as they had been used in the previous year.

Here Reliance has fixed assets turnover ratio that is 7.51 which is better than NTPC which is

0.76 and Tata Power which is 0.66.

The higher the EPS is, the better, because the value of the share will increase. EPS of NTPC

is 11.04, TATA POWER is 39.68 and Reliance is 9.98.

This helps the stockholders to decide in which company they should invest their money so as

to get more dividends out of the profits. Then the higher the EPS is the better, since than

more dividends will be received after each shares owned. Another implication of the Earnings

per Share ratio is that it tells investors in what stock their invested money should go, as EPS

tells how much each dollar or rupees invested earns.

TATA POWER has 0.66 ratios as compared to NTPC 0.76 and Reliance 0.10. This indicates

that TATA POWER and NTPC are managing their assets efficiently as compared to

Reliance.

An earnings per Share ratio is particular importance in manufacturing concerns where the

investment in fixed asset is quite high. Compared with the previous year, if there is increase

in this ratio, it will indicate that there is better utilization of fixed assets. If there is a fall in

this ratio, it will show that fixed assets have not been used as efficiently, as they had been

used in the previous year.

Here Reliance has fixed assets turnover ratio that is 7.51 which is better than NTPC which is

0.76 and Tata Power which is 0.66.

RECOMMEDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS

1. N.T.P.C. should pay more focus on controlling the inventory.

2. N.T.P.C. must invest its surplus cash reserves.

3. N.T.P.C. must improve or increase its D/E ratio.

4. N.T.P.C. should focus on control of various overheads.

CONCLUSION

Ratio Analysis is the basic tool of financial analysis and financial analysis is itself an

important part of any business planning process as SWOT, being basic tool of the strategic

analysis plays a vital role in a business planning process and no SWOT analysis would be

complete without an analysis of company’s financial position. In this way ratio analysis is

very important part of whole business strategic planning. As companies dispatch their long

annual report once a year, the financial ratio helps us to profile a company easily.

There is a huge crisis over energy in the world especially in the field of electricity. India is

also victim of the same condition. In spite of several efforts taken by the governments in this

regard, there is enormous possibility exists. NTPC is a key organization in India as far as the

supply of power is concerned. After successfully conducting this project work, it can be said

that the financial health of NTPC is sound good and it appears positive in accordance with its

balance sheet and profit & loss A/c.

Page 84: Ratio Analysis

This project has helped me in gaining and understanding the insights into what NTPC is and how it works. The importance of different ratios to the organization.

In NTPC, I have also learnt SAP and ESS (Employee Self Service) and how to work on this i.e.

- Passing and making entries in ESS for those who are employees of NTPC.

- Learning how to make entries of E-Payments in SAP.

- Making postings of E-Payments

- In SAP software I used
