ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES PVT. LTD.

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

Objectives of the Study:


1. 2. To know the financial position of the company access. To assess the financial strengths and weakness of the company

to give valuable suggestions to attain operational excellence. 3. To study the importance of Working Capital Management in a

manufacturing concern. 4. To study and evaluate the present Cash Management system of

the company.

Methodology of Data Collection


Research methodology is a systematic way for solving any research problem. Its a science of analyzing how research is done scientifically. It studies the various steps that are generally adopted by a researcher in studying the research problem.

Sources of Data: There are 2 types of data: 1. 2. Primary Data Secondary Data 6

Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES PVT. LTD.

Primary Data The primary data are those which are collected fresh for the first time and thus happen to be original in character. The primary data collection involves the collecting of information for the first time by observation, experimentation, questionnaire and through interview schedule in the original form by the researcher himself or his nominees. Plan of action: The primary data was collected through discussion with the finance manager using the interview schedule. This data was obtained to study the latest procedures relating to working capital management and cash management system followed by the company.

Secondary Data The secondary data are those which have been collected by some other and which have been processed. Generally speaking secondary data are information, which have been previously collected by some organization to satisfy its own need. But the department under reference for an entirely different reason is using it. There are two main sources for Secondary Data: Published Data: Data that is already available in books, magazines, Unpublished Data: This is not published; it can be found in unpublished aspects and private trade journals, newspapers, reports, prepared by research scholar etc. biographies, autobiographies, some governmental individual organizations etc. Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 7

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES PVT. LTD.

The Secondary data used in the study are: o o o o Annual Report of the company. Published financial reports of the company. Financial records and stores manual of the company. Directors reports, auditors report and other schedules.

Limitations of the Study:


The span of study is confined to only 5 years. The comparison of various ratios may not have the same conditions, which may result in unrelated comparisons. DIPL depends completely on Divgi Warner Pvt. Ltd (Pune) for procurement of raw materials & supply of finished goods. Hence the Working Capital Inventory management techniques have to be adjusted on a timely basis, based on DWPLs needs. In this project report the Working Capital Management & Cash Management system followed during the time of doing the project is recorded and analyzed.

Need and Importance of Working Capital:


To fulfill its endeavor to maximize the shareholders wealth, firm has to earn sufficient return from its operations, which needs a successful sales activity. The firm has to invest sufficient funds in current asset to succeed in sales, as the sales do not convert into cash instantaneously because of time gap between the sale of goods and actual receipt in cash. Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 8

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES PVT. LTD.

Hence there is a need for Working Capital in the form of current assets to sustain sales activity during that period.

Findings:
1. View of financial position: The Company was incorporated in the year 2000, its actual commercial work started in the year 2003 April 1st.The Company had not started any business, so there is no question of profit from the year 2000 to 2003. But however as a first step towards the commencement of commercial activity the company has taken over the business of timing gear blanker on April 2003. 2. In 2003-04 the Company started commercial activity by acquiring the building, plant & machinery from Divgi Metal Ware Pvt. Ltd., on an annual lease of Rs.9,00,000/- plus taxes of Rs.51,750/-. Using these leased assets the company carried out job work for Divgi Warner Pvt. Ltd. After expenses the company made a modest profit of Rs.3,745/- before depreciation. 3. The debtors component in the composition of current assets is the highest. It was 87.77% in the year 2003-04, 79.38% in 2004-05, 73.63% in 2005-06, 70.87% in 2006-07 and 69.43% for the year 2007-08. It may be noted that debtors components in current assets is decreasing over the years. 4. The cash and bank component for the year 2003-04 was 2.19%.it was 1.71% in 2004-05, 7.11% in 2005-06, 1.16% in 2006-07, 0.27% in 2007-08. The loans and advances component was 10.04% in the year 2003-04, 18.91% in 2004-05, 19.26% 2005-06, 27.97% in 2006-07, 30.30% in 2007-08. The debtors component in the composition of current assets decrease the loans and advance component is on an increase. 5. In the years 2003-04 and 2004-05, the company had a negative working capital of Rs.1,35,169.09 and Rs.1,95,076.75 respectively which is not a favorable position to the company. Then in the year 2005-06, 2006-07 and Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 9

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES PVT. LTD.

2007-08 the Net Working Capital has improved drastically to Rs.9,78,370.64 ,.Rs9,86,858.40, and Rs 35,02,104.84 respectively.

Suggestions and Recommendations:


1. The Debtors component is the highest among the five years and it

amounted to nearly 76% of the total current assets. But the percentage has decreased over the year which is a good sign of improvement. The second highest element is the loans and advances component which has increased over the years because of the expansion programmes undertaken by the company. In the initial years the company had not maintained a considerable amount of cash and bank balances, but over the years the company is maintaining adequate cash so as to meet its immediate cash requirements. 2. The working capital of the company should be always positive. It should

not be negative. In the years 2003-04 and 2004-05, the company had a negative working capital which is not a favorable position to the company. Then again in the year 2005-06, 2006-07, and 2007-08 DIPLs net working capital has increased to Rs.9, 78,370.64, RS9,86,858.40, and Rs 35,02,104.84 which is a very positive sign of prosperity and it will help the company to sustain its expansion programmes. It also shows that the liquidity position of the company has improved. Hence there is much capital available with the company to pay off the current liabilities. 3. In order to ensure liquidity and quick cash collection the company can go

for factoring technique, through which the company can get immediate cash for its accounts receivables and employ it in business and there by improve its profitability. Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 10

INDUSTRY PROFILE
Indian Auto Components Industry:
The Indian auto ancillary industry has come a long way since it had its small beginnings in the 1940s. If the evolution of the industry is traced in India, it can be classified into three distinct phases namely: Period prior to the entry of Maruti Udhyog Ltd, period after the entry of Maruti Udhyog Ltd and Period post Liberalization. The period prior to the entry of Maruti Udhyog Ltd was characterized by small number of auto majors like Hindustan Motors, Premier Automobiles, Telco, Bajaj, Mahindra & Mahindra, low technology and assured business for most of the auto component manufacturers. The entry of Maruti in the 1980s marked the beginning of the second phase of the industry. The auto ancillary industry in the country really showed a spurt in growth during this period. This period witnessed the emergence of a new generation of auto ancillary manufacturers who were required to meet the stringent quality standard of Marutis Korean collaborator Suzuki of Japan. The good performance of Maruti resulted in an upswing for the domestic auto ancillary industry. It was during this period that auto components from India began to be exported. The entry of foreign automobile manufactures ranging from Mercedes Benz, Ford and General Motors to Daewoo following the government liberalizing the foreign investment limits saw the beginning of the third phase of the evolution of the industry. The auto ancillary industry witnessed huge capacity expansions and modernization initiatives in the post liberalization period. Technological collaborations and equity partnerships with world leaders in auto components became a common affair. However, the global Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 11

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES PVT. LTD.

automobile majors soon realized the folly of their estimations in India. The market did not seem to be as big as it appeared to be. Hence, sales targets went away. The tough competitive scenario saw a lot of consolidation in the industry and it still continues unabated.

Global Scenario;
Prior to 2000, it had been almost ten years since TTS (torq transfer systems) had been awarded any new transfer case business for the European market (Land Rover). Then concerted efforts were made to re-enter that market & attain new business with improved technologies such as high output transfer cases & Torsen Torque Differential technology which broadens the industries offering in the transfer case market place. In the global Scenario of transfer case industry there are significant differences between the American & European Markets. While the American car-buyer is primarily interested in traction & larger, more powerful vehicles, the European driver is more interested in vehicle handling, stability & safety. Therefore for their home markets, European auto makers are producing smaller, front wheel drive vehicles. But as the American car buyers are more interested in powerful engines the automakers are offering a wide range of SUVs for which the Torq transfer System ( TTS) is particularly well suited making the 2 wheel drive into 4 wheel drive ( 4 x 4 ). The vehicles tend to be technically more sophisticated creating new market potential for TTS. Borg Warner & TTS (Torq Transfer Systems) The Company engineers work closely with the Drivetrain group in engineering strategy & provide many opportunities for collaboration & learning of TTS. TTS engineers frequently make customer presentations along with colleagues from TS. This collaboration allows the Company to talk about the companys all-wheel drive products while TS engineers present other Drive train technologies that Borg Warner has to offer, including the very successful Dual Clutch Technology, which is generating much attention in Global Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 12

markets.Other Borg Warner business groups have helped to establish a great reputation for Borg Warner at the Global level. The companys commitment to new technologies & new products for the automakers will help TTS become a future Product Leader in Auto industry.

Definition: Working Capital Management is defined as, a process of determining quantum of current of assets to be held at a right time, so as to discharge current liabilities and thereby utilizing them to their maximum extent, and at the same time increasing over all value of the firm keeping the liquidity position intact. Working capital management is the functional area of finance. It involves the formulation of policies for managing the current assets and current liabilities so as to maximize the benefits arising there from. Management of working capital involves deciding upon the amount and composition of current assets and tapping proper sources of finance for acquiring current assets.

Methodology of Data Collection


Research methodology is a systematic way for solving any research problem. Its a science of analyzing how research is done scientifically. It studies the various steps that are generally adopted by a researcher in studying the research problem. Sources of Data: There are 2 types of data: 1. 2. Primary Data Secondary Data

Primary Data The primary data are those which are collected fresh for the first time and thus happen to be original in character. The primary data collection involves the collecting of information for the first time by observation, experimentation, questionnaire and through interview schedule in the original form by the researcher himself or his nominees. Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 55

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES PVT. LTD.

Plan of action: The primary data was collected through discussion with the finance manager using the interview schedule. This data was obtained to study the latest procedures relating to working capital management and cash management system followed by the company. Secondary Data The secondary data are those which have been collected by some other and which have been processed. Generally speaking secondary data are information, which have been previously collected by some organization to satisfy its own need. But the department under reference for an entirely different reason is using it.

There are two main sources for Secondary Data: Published Data: Data that is already available in books, magazines, Unpublished Data: This is not published; it can be found in unpublished aspects and private trade journals, newspapers, reports, prepared by research scholar etc. biographies, autobiographies, some governmental individual organizations etc. The Secondary data used in the study are: 1. Annual Report of the company. 2. Published financial reports of the company. 3. Financial records and stores manual of the company. 4. Directors reports, auditors report and other schedules.

Statement of the Problem:


Financial statements can provide valuable insights into a firms performance. Analysis of financial statements is useful for the company to evaluate its own performance and also it is of interest to lenders (short term as well as long term), investors, security analysts, managers and others.

evaluate the effectiveness of operations and to determine its success an analyst has to combine quantitative results with qualitative factors. For instance a companys current profitability may be low. However, because of actions initiated by the management like technology up gradation, joint venture and collaboration with a foreign partner, etc. The prospects for better performance of the company in future may be bright. To fulfill its endeavor to maximize the shareholders wealth, firm has to earn sufficient return from its operations, which needs a successful sales activity. The firm has to invest sufficient funds in current asset to succeed in sales, as the sales do not convert into cash instantaneously because of time gap between the sale of goods and actual receipt in cash. Hence there is a need for Working Capital in the form of current assets to sustain sales activity during that period.

Limitations of the Study:


The span of study is confined to only 5 years. The comparison of various ratios may not have the same conditions, which may result in

unrelated comparisons. DIPL depends completely on Divgi Warner Pvt. Ltd (Pune) for

procurement of raw materials & supply of finished goods. Hence the Working Capital Inventory management techniques have to be adjusted on a timely basis, based on DWPLs needs.

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES PVT. LTD.

1. Gross Working Capital: The gross working capital consists of total current assets. It provides the correct amount of working capital required at the right time. In financial management, the major thrust is upon the management of current assets. It tries to maximize return on investment by avoiding two extremes. Excessive investment in current assets simply reduces the profitability of an enterprise, since, the investment becomes idle. Whereas, inadequate working capital effects the solvency of the company negatively. 2. Net Working Capital: Net working capital is defined as the difference between current assets and current liabilities. A company has to give more importance to liquidity, because inability to pay short-term creditors may prove to be dangerous to the organization. Current assets should be sufficiently above the current liabilities low liquidity is harmful to the solvency of the company. 3. Permanent Working Capital: It refers to the current assets that are required to be maintained continuously throughout the year to carry on the business operations. In other words, it represents that part of the working capital which remains permanent in the business, in one form or the other in the same way as the fixed assets. For e.g. Cash or bank balance, stock-intrade to be maintained as minimum to carry on business operations at any time. 4. Temporary or Fluctuating Working Capital: It refers to the additional current assets required to meet the changing demands of an industrial or business enterprise caused by seasonal change. During peak season, a company requires additional funds to hold extra stock of goods. Thus, fluctuating working capital is not permanently locked up unlike the fixed working capital. It varies according to the changes in the volume of business caused by seasonal changes or any other factors. 5. Negative Working Capital: It refers to the deficit working capital.

Table 7: Statement of changes in Working Capital for the year 2007-08

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

Ratio 0.95 : 1 0.91 : 1 1.43 : 1 1.39: 1 3.76: 1

Table 8: Current Ratio Interpretation: The Current Ratio was 0.95 for 2003-04 and decreased to 0.91 in the year 2004-05 and for 2005-06 the ratio increased to 1.43.and then decreased to1.39 in the year 2006-07 and for 2007-08 the ratio increased to 3.76. The current ratio has met the standard of 2:1 ratio and hence it can be said that there is enough working capital to meet the current liabilities. Hence it can be noted that steps have been taken to increase the current ratio in the previous financial years .so that enough working capital is available to meet the current obligation. Thus the liquidity position, as calculated by the current ratio, is improved in the financial year 2007-08. Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 73

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AT DIVGI INDUSTRIES PVT. LTD.

Interpretation: The creditors turnover ratio was 3.85 times in the year 2003-04 and then decreased to 2.82 times in the year 2004-05. In the year 2005-06 it increased to 4.99 times. Subsequently in the current financial year 2007-08 it has increased to 7.26 times. Generally lower the ratio better is the liquidity position of the firm and vice versa. But lower ratio also implies lesser discount facilities availed or higher prices paid for the goods purchased on credit. The creditors turnover ratio is important tool of analysis as a firm can reduce its requirement of current assets by relying on suppliers credit. From the above table it can be known that that the creditors turnover ratio in the current financial year 2007-08 is increased considerably over the previous year and hence the companys liquidity position is not good in current years.

Average Collection Period
