INDUSTRY PROFILE
THE GLOBAL STEEL INDUSTRY The Global Steel Industry has been going through major changes since 1970. China has emerged as a major producer and consumer, as has INDIA to a lesser extent. Consolidation has been rapid in Europe.
STEEL LTD.
GROWTH OF INDUSTRY Global steel production grew enormously in the 20th century from a mere 28 million tons at the beginning of the century to 781 million tons at the end. WORLD STEEL PRODUCTION IN THE 20th CENTURY Over the course of the 20th century, production of crude steel has risen at an astounding rate, now fast approaching a production level of 800 million tons per year. Today, it is difficult to imagine a world without steel. During the 20th century, the consumption of steel increased at an annual rate of 3.3%.In 1900, the USA was producing level of 800 million tons per years . Today, it is difficult to imagine a world without steel. During the 20th century, the consumption of steel increased at an average annual rate of 3.3%. In 1900 , the USA was producing 37% of the worlds steel . With post war industrial development in Asia that region now (at the turn of the century) account for almost 40%, with Europe (including the former soviet union)Producing 36% and North America 14.5% Toward the end of the last century, growth of steel production was in the developing countries such as china, Brazil and India, as well as newly developed south Korean, steel production and consumption grew steadily in china in the initial years but later it picked up momentum and the consumption grew steadily in china in the initial years but later it picked up momentum and the closing year of the century saw steadily in china in the initial years but later it picked up momentum and the closing years of the century saw it racing ahead of the rest of the world . GROWTH PROTENTIAL OF THE INDUSTRY Growth of the Chinese steel industry appears to be staggering .however, when one considers that China has developed of 1.3 billion, the per capital steel consumption is around or below that of the development countries. Indeed, while China had been progressively raising steel production for many years, it has also been important substantial quantities of steel. Amongst the other newly steel producing countries, South Korea has stabilized at around at around 46.48 million tons, and Brazil at around 30 plus million tones. This brings the focus of the industry to India. Considering a steel consumption of 300 kg per man year to be a fair level of economic development, India will have to come up to somewhere around 300 million tones, if it is to fulfill its ambition of being a developed country. In the developed countries, the trends are on consolidation of industry. Cross-border mergers have been taken place for several years. The focus is on technological improvement and new products. INDIAN STEEL INDUSTRY
STEEL LTD.
The last decade saw the Indian Steel Industry integrating with the global economy and evolving considerably to adopt world class production technology to produce high quality steel, the total investment in India steel since 1990 is over Rs 19000 cores mostly in plant equipments, which have been installed after 1990. With a current capacity of 35mt the Indian steel industry is today the 8th largest producer of steel in the world. Today, India produces international standard steel of almost all grades and had been a net exporter for the past few years, underlining the growing acceptability of its production in the global markets.
Expansion to meet this growing demand. Steel is crucial to the development of any modern economy and is considered to be the backbone of human civilization. The level of per capita consumption of steel is treated as an important index of the level of socioeconomic development and living standards of the people in any country.
EXPORT AND IMPORT OF STEEL FROM INDIA The steel export of India over the decided the compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 22.27% against CAGR of import of steels, which accounted 14.20% in the respective period. In 1991-92, very inception of the liberalization, the steel exports amounted to 368 thousand tons, which increased year-by-year and reached to5221 thousand tons in 2003-04. It accounted for thirteen-fold increase over the period. The annual growth rate of exports of steel for the period showing the fluctuating trends, which ranged between 14.41% in 1992-93 in 2003-04, the growth rate was 15.87% iron & steel are freely exportable. Advance licensing scheme allowing duty free import of raw materials for exports. Duty entitlement pass book scheme (DEPB) introduced to facilitate exports. From 1997-98, India exported steel and steel products which was more than its imports of steel and steel products.
IMPORT OF IRON & STEEL Iron & steel are freely importable as per the extant policy Last four year import of finished (carbon) steel is given below Years 2003-04
In Millions 1.540

POSITIVE KEY POINTS OF INDIAN STEEL INDUSTRIES Growth Potential: The per capita consumption of steel is around 33kgs in India as against 242hgs in china and an average of over 400kgs in the developed countries. This wide gap in relative steel consumption indicates that the potential ahead for India to raise its steel consumption is high. Continued Demand: Strengthening of steel prices since 2003 till early 2006 helped the domestic steel companies immensely as many of them managed to reduce their debt burden considerably going forward, the demand for the metal is likely to sustain on the back of continuing demand within India and from US and other south east Asian nations.
NEGATIVE KEY POINTS OF INDIAN STEEL INDUSTRY Fragmented Industry: while there have been concerted efforts to control the fragmented nature of the industry through consolidation and closures, the problem continues to persist. Further, the biggest threats to the industry remains from the cyclicality of the sector, which could put immense pressure on steel prices if steel consumption shows signs of faltering or supply exceeds the demand considerably. Capped Benefits: Indian steel companies have to bear additional costs pertaining to capital equipment, power and inefficiencies (low per employee productivity).this has capped the edge they would have otherwise enjoyed due to availability of cheap labor and raw material Import Threats: another possible threat to the domestic steel sector continues to be from dumping by international companies. INDUSTRY DEVELOPMENT: The tightness in the debt capital market, sagging equity capital market, surging oil prices, rising food and commodity prices and spiraling inflation across the world, are excepted to have some dampening effect on the world sector such as capital goods sector, growing industrial sector and infrastructure spending in emerging economics, are expected to support the secular trends growth momentum and generate demand for steel.
STEEL LTD.
The global apparent steel consumption is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.2% between 2007 and 2009. With capacity additions not keeping pace, the demand is clearly outpacing the supply, leading to high finished steel prices and low inventory level, on account of supply shortage. The domestic demand for steel products continues to be buoyant considering large pipeline of committed investment in India. Import of steel products is becoming unattractive due to higher international prices relative to domestic prices. As a result, there is a strong demand for domestic steel products, which will benefit the domestic steel industry.
COMPANY PROFILE
A. Background and inception of the company.
In the 15th century, Krishnadevaraya (1509-29) ruled the royal vijaynagar dynasty located in southern India, famous for its peace and prosperity, Reminiscing the past glory and grandeur of vijayanagar, JSW (JINDAL SOUTH WEST) the mega steel plant has come up at Toranagallu, 29kms from Bellary.

FUTURE GROWTH & PROSPECTUS: JSW is part of US $8 Billion O.P.JINDAL Group. Under the Dynamic and visionary leadership of Mr. Sajjan Jindal, JSW today is a US $3.7 billon group with its presence across various sectors STEEL, MINERALS, PORT & INFRASTRUCTURE, CEMENT, ALUMINUM AND IT. JSW STEEL is the largest private steel producer in India with manufacturing facilities in Karnataka, Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu. It is engaged in manufacture of flat and long products viz. pellets, Slabs, HR Plates / Coils / sheet, Galvanized & Galvalume (Plain & Color Coasted) Coils / Sheets / profiles , Bar, Rounds & Rebars.
DNA reported that JSW steels expansion of its Vijayanagar plant in Karnataka to 10
million tons per annum from the present 7 million tons per annum is progressing as per schedule and the company has fully tried up funds for the project. The report cited Mr.Seshangiri Rao, Director, finance of JSW Steel as saying that We have tied up funds till 10 million tons per annum and the expansion is on track. As per the report, JSW is aiming to complete the facilities, which would be the first 10 million tons per annum steel plant in India at a single location, by September 2010 and is now in the process of tying up iron ore for the plant.
JSW STEEL has established a strong presence in the global value- added steel segment
with the acquisition of steel mills in US and Service Centre in UK. JSW steel has also formed a joint venture for setting up a steel plant in Georgia. With its upcoming Greenfield steel plant in west Bengal and Jharkhand, the company plans to produce 32 MTPA steel by 2030.
The company currently procures iron ore from the open market for its steel plant at
Torangallu in Bellary as the state government is yet to fulfill its assurance of grant of a lease for mine with reserved of 110 million tons in the Bellary region.
STEEL LTD.
The company required around 25 million tons iron ore to feed its plant once the
expansion was completed, said Sajjan Jindal, Vice-Chairman and Managing director, JSW STEEL Ltd. Acquisition of mine in Bellary is Crucial for the company as it is in the process expanding its steel making capacity to 1o MTPA by 2010. The company has also received the state governments approval to further expand the capacity to 16 MTPA at an Investment of Rs 20,000 cores.
SWOT ANALYSIS OF JSW: STRENGHTS : JSW has reputation in steel market. This is the result of long experience of around 3 decades in the steel industry. Major strength of JSW lies with the prices. JSW enjoys reduction in cost due to very low cost of power (generated by COREX gas) State of art & technology, the Corex process makes it a low cost production of steel in the industry. Excellent work force well-qualified and highly experienced Employees. Production quality is the strength of the JSW. Well planned Infrastructure for inward & outward by rail & Roads as base foundation for future growth. Cost effective & compact rail network system. Well designed yard for receipt dispatches with inter- connectivity. Multi entry / exit to the yard for greater flexibility. Support from the state Government. It is a continuous process and large scale production is undertaken. Future demand for steel industry.
STEEL LTD.
WEAKNESS:
Raw materials receipts through Goa port due to capacity constraints, railways network is not likely to support. Krishnapatnam port movement is not smooth.. Challenge in handling 52 MTPA cargos at signal location. Over dependence on Railway for movement of materials. With increasing intensity of operations, tippler performance would become a serious concern.
OPPORTUNITY: Capacity expansion plan of IR network are well co-ordinate with overall expansion plan of JSW. A special incentive from India Railways to Steel Industries is under Consideration. Located in the center of Bellary- Hospet region, a high grade iron belt. Easy access to the major parts of Goa, Chennai and Mumbai. JSW has a good reputation in the steel market. This is the result of long experience of around 3 decades in the steel industry.
THREAT:

IR has not taken any initiative for DFC to develop their network serving JSW plant. Foreign companies like Mittal Steel and posco entering the Indian steel market. Dumping of metal from countries like Korea is another major threat. Inordinate delay in construction of the world already sanctioned by the Railways & which is in progress. User to create their own infrastructure for smooth inward/outward movement. Availability of Railways wagon for outward movement.

So this study intends to comprehensively evaluate the inventory, receivables, creditors and cash management. The study also aims to analyze the alternative sources of working capital employed by JSW Ltd. Desk research method is adopted for this study. The required information was collected through secondary sources. Secondary data were collected from various sources including the annual report of the company for the various years. General Introduction: Statement of the problem:
STEEL LTD.
The working capital is the most critical problem in financial management, Importance of working capital management. A substantial portion of total investment is invested in current assets. Level of current assets and current, which can be determined, by the level of current assets and current liability. The composition of current assets and current liabilities. Need and Importance of Study: To fulfill its endeavor to maximize the shareholders wealth, firm has to earn sufficient return from its operation, which needs a succeful sales activity. The firm has to invest sufficient funds in current assets to succeed in sales, as the sales do not convert into cash instantaneously because of the time gap between the sales of goods and actual receipts in the cash. Hence there is a need for working capital in the form of current assets to sustain sales activity during that period. The adequate stock of inventory provides a cushion against being out of stock and help as a guard to meet the demand for its product. To be competitive, the firm must sell its product to their customer on credit, which capital necessitates the holding of accounts receivables therefore an adequate level of working capital is absolutely necessary for the smooth sales activities, which in turn enhance the owners wealth. The working capital need arises for the following purposes: * For purchasing raw materials, components and spare parts * For paying wages and salaries. * To incur day today expenses and overhead costs like fuel, power and office expense etc. * To meet selling costs of packing advertising etc, * To provide credit facilities to customers. Objectives of study: *To study the efficiency of working capital management of the company. *To analyze the working capital trends in the company to study the efficiency of cash, *inventory and receivable management of the company. *To understand and analyze the working capital position of JSW Ltd.
STEEL LTD.
*To measure the overall financial position of the organization with the help of ratio analysis. Scope of the study: Since the decision regarding working capital are of an operating nature not one time decision, the scope of the study is geared towards identifying important areas of control and to establish model for better control of the various components of working capital. The study would also attempt to identify the various sources available for financing of working capital. The study gives a fair idea of improvement I efficiency of working capital management and also to have proper control over the components of working capital and managing of efficiency.
Methodology: Desk research method is adopted for this study. The required information was collected through secondary sources. Secondary data were collected for various sources including the annual reports of company for the years between 2005 to 2010.
Limitation of the study: * This study deals with the data made available. Hence the result of this study cannot judge the business of the firm in general. * The study has been influenced by the limitation of the ration analysis. * The study extensively uses the data provided is the financial reports of the firm which may also have their own limited perspective. * The analysis made on the working capital management is for a particular period of time the current assets and current liabilities will change for an analysis made at any order of time. Theoretical Background: Introduction: One of the vital aspects of companys financial management is to manage its current assets and the current liabilities in such a way that a satisfactory level of working capital is maintained.
STEEL LTD.
Working capital management means administration of all aspects or working capital i.e. current assets and current liabilities. Firm has to manage it properly in order to attain its goal of wealth maxima ion. Meaning: Funds required for short term purposes or day to day expenses are working capital. WC refers to part of firms capital required for financial short term or current assets also known as revolving or short term capital or circulating capital. Working capital is that part of the total capital which is used for carrying out routine business operations. In simple terms, working capital is the capital with which the business of the company is worked over. Working capital is the life bold of business and it is the controlling system of every firm. In simple words, working capital is the excess of current asset over current liabilities. The working capital management is concerned with the problem that arises in attempting to manage the current assets and current liabilities and the interrelationships that exist between them. This tries to evolve how much funds to be invested in each type of current assets and what should be the proportion of long terms funds and which are the sources that are ideal for financing current assets. Concepts of working capital: There are two concepts of working capital, they are; 1.Gross Working Capital Concept 2.Net Working Capital Concept
GROSS WORKING CAPITAL CONCEPT: Gross working capital concepts refer to firm investment in its current assets. Current assets are assets, which can be converted into cash with in an accounting year (or operating cycle) and includes cash, short term securities, debtors, bills receivables and inventories. The gross working capital is a financial concept. It also called as current capital or circulating capital concept mainly focuses on two aspects of current asset management. * Optimum investment in current assets * Financing of current assets
STEEL LTD.
NET WORKING CAPITAL CONCEPT: Net working capital is the difference between current assets and current liabilities. It may be positive or negative. A positive working capital arises when current assets exceeds current liabilities and Vice- versa.
Net working capital = current assets current liabilities
Net working capital is a qualitative concept and it indicates: 1. Liquidity position of the firm
2. Suggest the extent to which working capital needs may be financed by permanent sources of funds The current assets of the firm should be sufficiently in excess of current liabilities to constituting maturing obligations within the ordinary operating cycle of the business. A weak liquidity position poses a threat to solvency position of the firm and makes it unsafe and unsound. A negative working capital may prove to be harmful for the companys reputation. On the other hand, excessive liquidity is also bad which may lead to mismanagement of current assets. Even though both gross and net working capital concepts are the important facets of working capital, there is no precise way to determine the exact gross or net working capital for every firm. The working capital needs depends upon the business operations of the firm. Significance of the working capital: To fulfill its endeavor to maximize the share holders 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 assets to succeed in sales, as the sales of goods and actual receipts in cash. Hence there is need of working capital in the form of current assets to sustain sales activity during that period. Since cash inflow and cash outflow dont match, firm have to necessarily keep cash or investment in short term liquid securities to fulfill its obligations as and when they become due. The adequate stock of inventory provides a cushion against being out of stock and help as a guard to meet the demand for its product. The working capital need arise for the following purpose.
STEEL LTD.
For purchasing raw materials, components and spare parts For paying wages and salaries. To incur day to day expenses and overhead cost like fuel, power and office expenses etc. To meet selling costs for packing, advertisement etc.
Classification of working capital: On the basis of concept 1. Net Working Capital This is the difference between current assets and current liabilities; current liabilities are those that are expected to mature with in an accounting year. It includes creditors, bills payable and outstanding expenses. Investment in current assets represents a very significant portion of the total investment in assets, in case of public limited companies in India; current assets constitute around 60% of the total capital employed. Therefore the finance manager should pay attention towards working capital management. The working capital needs increases as the firm groups. As sales grow, the firm needs to invest more in debtors and inventories. The finance manager should be aware of such needs and finance them quickly. Gross working capital: This refers to the firms investment in current assets. Current assets are the assets which can be converted into cash within a short period say, an accounting year. Current assets include cash, debtors, bills receivables, short terms securities etc. B. On the basis of time: 1. Permanent working capital:
Permanent working capital is permanently locked up in the circulation of current assets. It covers the minimum amount requested locked up in the circulation of current assets. It covers the minimum amount requested for maintaining the circulation of current assets.
STEEL LTD.
a) Initial working capital: As its inception and during the formative period of its operations a company must have enough cash fund to meet its obligations. The need for initial working capital is for every company to consolidate its position.
b) Regular working capital: It refers to minimum amount of capital required to keep up the circulation of the capital from the cash inventories to accounts receivables and from accounts receivables to back again cash. It consist of adequate stock of raw materials and finished goods and amount of receivables. 2. Variable working capital:
It refers to the past of the working capital which changes with the volume of business; it may be divided into two classesA) Seasonal working capital There are many lines of business where the volumes of operations are different and hence the amount of working capital varies with the seasons. The capital required to meet the seasonal needs of the enterprise is known as seasonal working capital. B) Special working capital
The capital required meeting any special operations such as experiments with new product or new techniques of production and making interior advertising campaign etc, are also known as special working capital.
Determinants of working capital: The following factors determine the amount of working capital Nature of industry: The composition of current assets is a function of the size of a business and the industry to which it belongs. A public utility concern, for example, mostly employs fixed assets in its operations, while merchandising department depends generally on inventory and receivables.
STEEL LTD.
Size of business: A business size may be measured in terms of scale of operations. A firm with large scale of operation will need more working capital than small firm. Manufacturing Cycle: Longer the manufacturing process, the higher will be requirements of working capital and vice versa Production policy: The production schedule has great influence on the level of inventories. In case of labor intensive industry, working capital requirement will be more. While in case of highly automated plant requirement of long term fund is more. Terms of purchase and sales: A firm which allows liberal credits to its customers may enjoy higher sales but will need more working capital as compared to a firm enforcing strict credit terms. Business Cycle: Business expands during the period of prosperity and declines during the period of depression, consequently, more working capital is required during the period of depression. Growth and Expansion: If business firm has ambitious plan for expansions. It requires more working capital to fulfill such requirements. Fluctuations in the supply of raw materials: Certain companies have to obtain and maintain large reserves of raw materials due to their irregular sales and intermittent supply thus working capital requirements of such industries and hard. Price level changes: Generally, rising price levels will require a firm to maintain higher amount of working capital. The same level of current assets will need increased investment when prices are increasing. Operating efficiency: Refers to the optimum utilization of resources at minimum cost. The firm will be effectively contributing to its working capital if it is efficient in controlling the operations coasts. Better utilization of resources improves profitability and thus, helps in releasing the pressure on working capital. Profit margin: A net profit margin contributes towards the working capital pool. In fact net profit is a source of working capital to the extent it has been earned in cash. Profit appropriation: Even if net profits are earned in cash at the end of the period whole of it is not available for working capital would be affected by the way in which profits are appropriated. The availability of cash generated from operations thus depends upon taxation, dividend and retention policy and depreciation policy. Sources of working capital: 1. Internal sources

2.
External sources
Internal sources: Shares Debentures Retained earnings Long term loans Sale of fixed assets Depreciation fund Using the resource meant for taxation External sources: Bank credit Customer advances Short term public deposits Installment credit Factoring commercial papers Indigenous banker Trade credit Outstanding expenses Operating cycle of working capital: It is essential that the operating cycle should be kept up continuously. Other fixed assets will remain idle and to the cost without bringing any reserve, so long with fixed capital ready and adequate working capital is necessary to get the understanding successful on a sound pedestal.

Inventory Management: Managing inventory is a juggling act. Excessively stocks can replace a heavy burden on the cash resources of a business. Insufficient stocks can result in lost sales, delays for customers etc. the day is to know how quickly your overall stocks is moving or. Put another way, how long each item of stock sit on shelves before being sold. Obviously, average stock holding periods will be influenced by the nature of the business.
STEEL LTD.
The key issue for a business is to identify the first and slow stock movers with objective of establishing optimum stock levels for each category and there by minimize the cash tied up in stocks. Factories to be considered when determining optimum stock levels include: The broad range of project management and financial advisory services include: What are the projected sales of each project? How widely raw materials and components are available? How long it takes for supplier to deliver? Can slow movers be removed, for our product range without compromising best Composition of inventory: Composition of inventory generally depends upon the nature of business. The proportion of each component in the total inventory varies for industry to industry. In order to assure effective control investment in inventories sit is desirable to maintain a proper balance in all the components. Costs related to inventory: One operating objective of inventory management is to minimize the cost. Excluding the cost of merchandise, the costs associated with inventory fall into two basic categories. Ordering or acquisition or set up costs. Carrying costs. Benefits of holding inventory: The second element in the optimum inventory decision deals with the benefits associated with the benefits associated with holding the inventory. The major benefits of holding the inventory are the basic function of inventory. In other words, inventories perform certain basic functions which are of crucial importance in the firms production and marketing strategies since inventories enable uncoupling of the key activities of the firm, each of them can be operations at the most efficient rate. This has several beneficial effects on the firms operations. The effects of uncoupling are follows. Benefits of purchasing Benefits in production Benefits in work-in-progress

STEEL LTD.
INTERPRETATION: The net working capital of the company decreased from year to year and the performance of company is in not in good position. The net working capital of the year Rs 425.30 crores, 199.90 crores, 2005-2006,and 2006-2007 respectively and it reached negative figure in the further years ,it as to look after its liabilities its heavy.
Liquidity ratio: Liquidity refers to the ability of the firm to meet its obligations in the short-run, usually one year. Liquidity ratio is generally based on the relationship between current assets (the sources foe meeting short term obligations) and current liabilities. The important liquidity ratio are : current ratio, acid test ratio and cash ratio. 1. CURRENT RATIO: This is most widely used ratio to know the capacity position. This ratio expresses the relationship between current assets and current liabilities. This ratio gives the information about to meet short term and long term working capital. Components of Current Ratio
STEEL LTD.
CURRENT ASSETS Cash in hand Cash at bank Marketable securities (short term) Short term investments Bills receivables Sundry debtors Inventories (stock) Work-in-progress Prepaid expenses
CURRENT LIABILITIES Outstanding or accrued expenses Bills payable Sundry creditors Short term advances Income tax payable Dividend payable Dividend payable Bank overdraft (if not permanent arrangement)
Current Ratio = (In. Cores) Particulars Current assets Current liabilities Current ratio 05-06 2745.41 2320.12 1.18 06-07 2485.63 2285.73 1.09 07-08 3086 4101.83 0.75 08-09 4631.64 7557.21 0.61 09-10 5559.52 7621.89 0.73
STEEL LTD.
Interpretation: The standard current ratio should be 1.33:1 but from 2007-2008 to 09-10, the current ratio of the company is less than one. Even though we find variation in the current ratio, the company met its current obligations by making huge profits. The ratio presents the margin of safety.
Quick Ratio: Liquid ratio expresses the relationship liquid assets and liquid liabilities. The ideal ratio for a concern is 1:1 this ratio measures the repayment of immediate liabilities.
Acid test ratio = (In. Cores) Particulars Quick assets Current liabilities Quick ratio 05-06 1821.18 2320.12 0.79 06-07 1474.28 2285.73 0.65 07-08 1536.84 4101.83 0.38 08-09 2580.22 7557.21 0.34 09-10 2973.75 7621.89 0.39
STEEL LTD.
Interpretation: The above table and graph shows the company has not maintained more than the standard quick ratio of 1:1 for all the above years. It shows that company is not maintaining its liquidity position up to standard ratio. So it should give important to improve the liquidity position.
Cash ratio: It is the ratio of cash equivalent balance to current liability. It can be calculated as follows:
Cash Ratio = (In. Cores) Particular Cash 98.87 Current liabilities Cash ratio 05-06 98.87 2320.12 0.04 06-07 337.80 2285.73 0.15 07-08 339.22 4101.83 0.09 08-09 419.96 7557.21 0.06 09-10 287.11 7621.89 0.038
STEEL LTD.
Interpretation: We can see lot of variation which is not near to standard ratio 0.5: 1. Lack of immediate cash may not matter if the firm can stretch its payment or borrow money at short notice if it is not able to do this firm should maintain adequate cash and bank balance to meet short term obligations. Leverage Ratio: Financial leverage refers to the use of debt finance. While debt capital is cheaper source of finance it is also riskier source of finance. Leverage ratios helps in assessing the risk arising from the use of debt capital. Two types of ratios are commonly used to analyze financial leverage structural ratios and coverage ratios. Structural ratios are based on the proportions of debt and equity in the financial structure of the firm. The important structural ratios are debts equity ratios and debt assets ratio.
Debt equity ratio: The debt equity shows the relative contribution of creditors and owners. It is defined as: Debt equity ratio =
STEEL LTD.
(In. Cores) Particular Debt Equity Debt equity ratio 2005-2006 4096.05 4356.22 0.94 2006-2007 4173.03 5594.05 0.75 2007-2008 7546.53 7677.25 0.98 2008-2009 11272.63 7959.25 1.42 2009-2010 11585.10 9706.34 1.19
Interpretation: The above table and graph shows the debt equity ratio is 0.98: 1 in year 2007-2008. In 20082009 it increased to 1.42: 1. But in year 2009-2010 it decreased to 1.19:1. Higher ratio shows a larger share of financing by the creditors of the firm, a low ratio implies a smaller claim of creditors.
Inventory Turnover ratio: This ratio indicates the number of times inventory is replaced during the year. It measures the relationship between the cost of goods sold and the inventory level. The ratio can be compared in two ways.
STEEL LTD.
Inventory turnover ratio = (In. Cores) Particulars Sales Average inventory Inventory turnover ratio 2005-2006 6180.10 924.23 6.68 2006-2007 8554.36 1011.35 8.46

2008-2009 14001.25 2051.42 6.83
2009-2010 18202 2586 7.04
Interpretation: This ratio indicates how fast the inventory is converted into sales. Here high ratio implies good inventory management. In year 2006-2007 the ratio was high and in year 2009-2010 it was 7.04. We can see that there is less variation, which shows the consistency in managing the inventory. Raw material turnover ratio: RMTR = (In. Cores) Particulars 2005-2006 Raw material 3112.05 consumed 2006-2007 3964 2007-2008 5888.53 2008-2009 8735.70 2009-2010 10872

Interpretation: The above table and graph shows that raw materials turnover ratio is 6.57 in years in 2005-2006 which has been increased to 7.25 in years 06-07. It was very high in year in 08-09 at 10.79 and was 8.50 in year 09-10. This ratio indicates how fast the raw material is converted into sales. So the company needs to improve this ratio.
