5.1. FINDINGS: Working capital of the company has been increasing continuously, which is good for the company because it means that the company is utilizing the capital correctly and they need more capital to be invested for the future of the company. Positive working capital as shown in the Table & graph NO.16 indicates that company has the ability of payment of short terms liabilities. Working capital increased in Table & graph NO.16 because of increment in the current assets more than the current liabilities. Current ratio of the company is also good which means the companys liquidity is good, the ideal ratio of current ratio is 2:1 but in this case every year it is more than the standard ratio which is good for the company. Recommended absolute liquidity ratio of the company is 0.75:1, but they had always above the standard ratio which is good for the company, as shown in the table & graph no.7. Debtors turnover ratio is improving from 2007-08 to 2010-11. Increase in ratio is beneficial for the company because as ratio increases the number of days of collection for debtors decreases. Fixed assets turnover ratio is also in good position which means the company is utilizing the fixed assets efficiently. Total assets turnover ratio is decreasing year by year which is not good for the company. Gross profit ratio of the company is good as it is increasing year by year.

Expense ratio of the company is too much it bad for the companys future. Net profit ratio is not to good, they need to come up with new ideas to boost up their net profit ratio. Cash profit ratio is also not that good; they need to practice good and efficient decisions to make it more profitable.

5.2. SUGGESTIONS: Company has to control on cash balance because cash is non earning assets and increasing cost of funds. Company should reduce the inventory holding period with use of zero inventory concepts. Company should take control on debtors collection period which is major part of current assets. The current assets should be managed more effectively so as to avoid unnecessary blocking of capital that could be used for other purposes. Awareness level of the company should be increased, so that people get more awareness of all the benefits, and features and get to use them. They can realize the full potential only when they are better informed. There must be highly qualified professionals to guide the company or decide the objectives of the company to be fulfilled in the long run. Investment in the business shall be increased to earn more business. Education camps should be arranged to show what new technology has been introduced in the particular medicine and how is it going to effect the life of the people. Marketing strategy should be good because if the marketing is not good then the customer may have difficulty in understanding the product.

Services to the customers should be improved so that the customer feels that they are being treated well. Complete information should be provided to the manager about the working of the company so that he can act accordingly and solve the problems if they occur in future. The company can maintain separate books of accounts for their manufacturing and trading businesses for more clarity and transparency in operations.

5.3. CONCLUSION: Working capital is a measure of the firm's ability to streamline its operations to generate cash as quickly as possible. When understood in this light, less is actually more. Our CFO services help companies get their arms around this concept and maximize their cash flow. Business is, ultimately, about cash generation. The working capital cycle of a business can either gobble up more than its fair share of cash or it can be managed as an efficient cash flow system. If managed, it can become one of the company's most significant competitive advantages Working capital increased because of increment in the current assets more than the current liabilities. So they need to maintain it to be in good profitability position. Net profit ratio is not too good; they need to come up with new ideas to boost up their net profit ratio. Gross profit ratio of the company is good as it is increasing year by year. The overall position of the company is satisfactory, but needs to improve in certain areas
