3.1 INTRODUCTION
The focus of financial analysis is on key figures contained in the financial statements
and high lights the significant relationship that exists between them. Analyzing financial
statements is a process of evaluating relationship between parts of Financial Statements to obtain
a better understanding of a firm position and performance. The purpose of evaluation of financial
statement differs among various groups interested in the result and relationships, reported in the
financial statements.
For example, short term creditors are primarily interested in judging the firms ability to
pay its currently maturity obligation. The relevant information for this is the composition of
short term current Assets and short term current liabilities. The debenture shareholder of
financial institutions granting long term loans would be concerned with examining the capital
structure past and project well as potential investors would naturally be interested in the earnings
per share and dividend payout ratio, which are likely to have a significant bearing on market
price of the shares.
3.2 MEANING OF RATIO
A ratio is defined as `the indicated quotient of two mathematical expressions and as the
relationship but two or more things. In financial analysis, a ratio is used as an index or yardstick
for evaluation the financial analysis, a ratio is used as an index or firm. The absolute accounting
figures reported in the financial statements do not provide meaningful understanding of the
performance and financial position of a firm. An accounting figure conveys meaning when it is
related to some other relevant information. The relationship between two accounting figures
expressed mathematically, is known as a financial ratio. A ratio helps to make qualitative
judgment about the firms financial it is calculated by dividing current assets by current
liabilities. This relationship is an index or yardstick which permits a qualitative judgment to be
formed about the firms liquidity and vice versa. The point to note is that this ration indicates a
quantitative relationship, which can be, in turn used to make a qualitative judgment to be formed
about the firms liquidity. The greater the ratio, the greater the firms liquidity and vice versa.
The point to note is that this ration indicates a quantitative relationship which can be, in turn,
used to make a qualitative judgment. Such is the nature of financial ratios.
3.3 TYPES OF RATIOS
Several Ratios, calculated from the accounting data, can be grouped on the basis
financial analysis are short term and long term creditors, owners and management. Short term
solvency of the firm. Long term creditors, on the other hand are more interest in the long term
solvency and profitability of the firm. Similarly, owners concentrate on firms profitability and
the analysis evaluating every aspect of the performance. They have to protect the interests of all
parties and see that the firm grows profitability. In view of requirements of the various users of
ratios, we may classify them into the following four important categories.
2. Quick ratio
3.3.1.1CURRENT RATIO
The Current Ratio represents a margin of safety that is a caution of protection
creditors. However, the current ratio is a test of quantity only, not quality, liabilities are not
subject to any fail in value because of the presence of slow paying debtors.
It indicates the availability of current assets in rupee for every one rupee current
liability. A ratio of greater than one rupee means that the firm has more current assets than
current claims against them, as a conventional rule, a ratio of 2 to 1 or more is considered to be
satisfactory.

Because the stock value is increase in the year and cash balance were increase in the year, and
the current ratio has decreased during the financial year 2009 -2011,2012-2015 that long term

3.3.3 PROFITABILITY RATIOS
A company should earn profits to service and grow over a long period of time. Profits are
essential, but it would be wrong to assure that every action initiated by management of a
company should be aimed at maximizing profits irrespective of social consequences. It is
unfortunate that the word profit is looked upon as a term of abuse since some firms always
want to maximize profits at the cost of employees, customers and society.
Profit is the difference between revenues and expenses over a period of time. The
profitability ratios are calculated to measure the operating efficiency of the company. Besides
management of the company, creditors and owners are also interest and repayment of principal
regularly. Owners want to get a reasonable return on their investment. This is possible when the
company earn enough profits.
3.3.3.1MEASURE OF PROFIT
Profit can be measure in various ways. Gross Profit is the difference between sales and
the manufacturing cost of goods sold. The most common measure of profit is profit after taxes
or net income which is result of the impact of all factors on the firms earnings. Taxes are not
controllable by management.
NET PROFIT MARGIN
Net profit margin ratio establishes a relationship between the net profit and sales. It is
indicates management efficiency in manufacturing administrating and selling the products. This
ratio is the overall measure of the firms to turn each rupee sales into net profit. If the net profit is
inadequate, the firm will fail to achieve satisfactory return on owners equity.
The ratio also indicates the firms capacity to withstand adverse economic conditions. Net
profit is obtained when operating expenses, interest and taxes are subtracted from the gross
profit.
