Growth so Far

Having started as a mustard trading house in 1958, B.L. Agro has come a long way

today. During the course of its journey, 1999 proved to be a landmark year which

transformed the business house from a commodity trading organization to an

FMCG company. The year witnessed the birth of B.L. Agro Oils as a registered

company and also marked its advent into quality control, packaging and marketing

of consumer packs of their flagship brand - Bail Kolhu Kachchi Ghani Mustard

Oil. Achieving an astonishing turnover of Rs. 60 crores in the first year itself, the

company has not looked back since.

Expansion and up-gradation has been a continuous process for B.L. Agro. The

marketers of a single mustard oil brand subsequently started rolling out multiple

varieties of mustard oil - thus catering to a much wider consumer base. As the
product range swelled, the competencies, capabilities and capacities were

continuously enhanced to meet the growing challenges. However even with its

ever-expanding size, B.L. Agro never lost sight of its ultimate goal that of

providing only the highest product quality - and hence set up its own advanced

quality control systems and packaging facilities.

Later, the company took another stride when being a player in the lone mustard oil

segment, B.L. Agro diversified into Refined Soybean oil and then further to

various blended edible oils. In 2006, B.L. Agro achieved yet another milestone

when it established its own state-of-the-art Refinery.

What Drives Success

unparalleled. B.L. Agro understands that eating habits of consumers are very

individualistic and vary from house to house. And in order to make a long term

relationship with the collective base, the company needs to pack Real Customer

Delight in each pack that it offers.

Moreover what has brought laurels to B.L. Agro and awarded it a leadership

position is the company's ability to anticipate and adopt to Market Demand Shifts

resulting from either consumer Living Pattern Shifts or any other reason. At B.L.

Agro, change has been one of the most consistent processes. Be it technological

capabilities, be it the strength of human minds or be it the collective efficiencies,

B.L. Agro has always anticipated the changing environment and empowered itself

for the same.

The most important success driver at B.L. Agro is its ability to offer Consistency

of Highest Quality Standards. Pack by pack, batch by batch, consignment by

consignment, the products of B.L. Agro carry exactly the same quality and purity

standards for which they have gained widespread respect.

Average receivable = 292728229.38/2

= 146364114.69

Working capital turnover ratio- It reveals the efficiency with which

Working capital has been utilized by a concern.

Working capital turnover ratio = cost of goods sold / working capital

(Year 2010-2011) = 3858629841.63/503791035.34

= 7.659 times
(Year 2009-2010) = 464037007/420272298

=1.104 times

Working capital = current assets current liabilities

(Year 2010-2011) = 863953120.61 - 360162085.27

= 503791035.34

(Year 2009-2010) = 617977315 - 197705017

= 420272298

Capital turnover ratio sometimes the efficiency and effectiveness of the

operation is judged by comparing the sales with the amount of capital

invested in the business. Capital employed is either equal to shareholders

fund plus long-term loans or equal to total assets minus current liabilities.

This is calculated by establishing the relationship between sales and capital

employed.

Capital turnover = sale / capital employed

(Year 2010-2011) = 4212526565.03 / 969095600.45

= 4.346 times

(Year 2009-2010) = 3540722900 / 776208704

= 4.561 times
Capital employed = total assets current liabilities

(Year 2010-2011) = 1329257685.72 - 360162085.27

= 969095600.45

(Year 2009-2010) = 973913721-197705017

= 776208704

Assets turnover ratio:- Assets turnover ratio shows the relationship

between total assets and sales of concern.

Assets turnover ratio = Net Sales/Total assets

(Year 2010-2011) = 4212526565.03/1329257685.72

= 3.169 times

(Year 2009-2010) = 3540722900 / 973913721

= 3.635 times
Total assets = fixed assets + current assets + investment

(Year 2010-2011) = 451232774.11 + 863953120.61 + 14071791.00

= 1329257685.72

(Year 2009-2010) =351748239 + 617977315 + 4188167

= 973913721

I. Current assets turnover ratio - Current assets turnover attempts to measures

the utilization and effectiveness of the uses of current assets or state over

investment or under investment in current assets. It may be pointed out that over

and under investment in current assets may indirectly affect the solvency of the

concern. Its the ratio between costs of sales and currents assets.

Current assets turnover = sales / current asset

= 4.875 times

(Year 2009-2010) = 3540722900/617977315

= 5.729 times

II. Fixed assets turnover ratio this ratio assumes added significance in the case

of manufacturing concern an increase in this ratio is the indicator of efficiency in

work-performance and decrease in this ratio speaks of unwise and improper

investment in fixed assets.


Fixed assets turnover ratio = Net sales / Fixed assets

(Year 2010-2011) = 4212526565.03/451232774.11

= 10.066 times
Financial ratio

Currents Ratio- The ratio of current assets to current liability is called

current ratio. This ratio is an indicator of the firms commitment to meet its

short-term liabilities. Current assets include cash and other assets convertible

into cash during the operating cycle of the business. Current liabilities mean

liabilities payable within a years time. An idle current ratio is 2:1, the ratio

of 2 is considered as a safe margin of solvency. A very high current ratio

would indicate the less efficient use of funds while a poor current ratio is a

danger signal to the management.

Current ratio = current assets / current liabilities

(Year 2010-2011) = 863953120.61/ 360162085.27

= 2.398: 1

(Year 2009-2010) =617977315/197705017

=3.125: 1

Current Assets = Stock + Sundry debtors + cash + loan &advances


(Year 2010-2011) = 559090945.36 +196601856.21 + 9462985.67 +

98797333.37

= 863953120.61

(Year 2009-2010) = 231658175 + 292728229 +16220352 + 77370559

= 6617977315

Current liabilities = Creditors + Current Liabilities for Others +

Provisions

(Year 2010-2011) = 152223025.00 + 174561631.27+ 33377429.00

= 360162085.27

(Year 2009-2010) = 68151089+101543687 +28010241

= 197705017

Quick ratio This ratio is also called acid test ratio and liquidity ratio.

This ratio is ascertained by comparing the liquid assets to current liability.

The idle ratio is 1. This ratio is also an indicator of short-term solvency of


the company. A comparison of current ratio to quick ratio will indicate the

inventory hold-ups. For example, if two units have same current ratio but

different liquidity ratio, it indicates over stocking by the concern having low

liquidity ratio as compared to the concern, which has a higher liquidity ratio.

Quick ratio = liquid assets / current liabilities

(Year 2010-2011) = 304862175.25 / 360162085.27

= 0.846: 1

(Year 2009-2010) = 386319140 /197705017

= 1.954: 1

Liquid assets = Current assets (inventory + prepaid exp.)

(Year 2010-2011) = 863953120.61- (559090945.36 + 0)

= 304862175.25

(Year 2009-2010) = 617977315 (231658175 + 0)

= 386319140

Cash ratio This is the ratio between cash and balances to current liabilities.

As such

Cash ratio = Cash + bank / current liabilities

(Year 2010-2011) = 9454306.00 + 8679.67/360162085.27


= 9462985.67/360162085.27

= 0.026: 1

(Year 2009-2010) = 16220352/197705017

=0.082:1

Solvency ratio This ratio highlights upon the long-term solvency of the

concerned and is ascertained by the formula

Solvency ratio = Total assets / Total liabilities

(Year 2010-2011) = 1329257685.72/979021639.01

= 1.358

(Year 2009-2010) = 973913721/724150419.01

= 1.345

Debt equity ratio - The debt equity ratio is determined to ascertain the

soundness of long-term financial policies of the company. It is also known

as external and internal equity ratio. This ratio establishes the relationship

between the internal equities and external equities. If this ratio is 1:1, the

long-term financial position of any business concern is considered


satisfactory. If this ratio is lower than 1:1, it means that outside liabilities are

lower than shareholders fund and in this case financial position will be

considered more good and satisfactory.

Debt equity ratio = long term debt / shareholders funds

(Year 2010-2011) = 618712496.74/336806671.63

=1.837

(Year 2009-2010) = 470403900.01/250024302.45
