COMPANY PROFILE
INTRODUCTION
The Bajaj Group is amongst the top 10 business houses in India. Its footprint
stretches over a wide range of industries, spanning automobiles (two-wheelers
and three-wheelers), home appliances, lighting, iron and steel, insurance, travel
and finance. The group's flagship company, Bajaj Auto, is ranked as the world's
fourth largest two- and three- wheeler manufacturer and the Bajaj brand is well-
known across several countries in Latin America, Africa, Middle East, South and
South East Asia. Founded in 1926, at the height of India's movement for
independence from the British, the group has an illustrious history. The integrity,
dedication, resourcefulness and determination to succeed which are
characteristic of the group today, are often traced back to its birth during those
days of relentless devotion to a common cause. Jamnalal Bajaj, founder of the
group, was a close confidant and disciple of Mahatma Gandhi. In fact, Gandhiji
had adopted him as his son. This close relationship and his deep involvement in
the independence movement did not leave Jamnalal Bajaj with much time to
spend on his newly launched business venture.
His son, Kamalnayan Bajaj, then 27, took over the reigns of business in 1942. He
too was close to Gandhiji and it was only after Independence in 1947, that he was
able to give his full attention to the business. Kamalnayan Bajaj not only
consolidated the group, but also diversified into various manufacturing activities.
The present Chairman of the group, Rahul Bajaj, took charge of the business in
1965. Under his leadership, the turnover of the Bajaj Auto the flagship company
has gone up from Rs.72 million to Rs.46.16 billion (USD 936 million), its product
portfolio has expanded and the brand has found a global market. He is India's one
of the most distinguished business leaders and internationally respected for his
business acumen and entrepreneurial spirit.

RATIO ANALYSIS:
Ratio analysis is a powerful tool of financial analysis. A ratio is defined as ‘the indicated
quotient of two mathematical expressions’ and “The relationship between two or more
things.”

In financial analysis, a ratio is used as a benchmark for evaluating the financial position
and performance of a firm. The absolute accounting figures reported in the financial
statements do not provide a meaningful understanding of the performance and financial
position of firm.

A. Short term Solvency:-

Current Ratio:
It is an indicator used to measure the Short term Solvency of a company.
The ideal ratio is 2:1
Current ratio = Current Asset/ Current Liability =
9691.69/10835.51 = 0.89:1
It indicates that the current ratio of the company is not in sound condition. The
company does not have enough liquid funds to repay the current liabilities. Or we
can say that the short term solvency of the company is in jeopardy.
B. Long Term Solvency:
Debt equity Ratio:
It is a measure to ascertain the long term financial policies of Company.
The ideal ratio is 1:1
Debt equity ratio= long Term Debt/Share Holders Funds
= 13165.56/12230.15 = 1.07:1
The debt equity ratio of the company is sound that the enough share

FINDINGS & SUGGESTIONS:

Analysis of Comparative Income Statement
I) It shows that the Net sales decreased by 10.71%% in the current year in
comparison to 2008.
II) It shows that the operating profit decreased by 40.22% in the current year
in comparison to 2008.
III) The net profit after Depreciation & Tax of the company also increased at a
high rate that is 50.65%. This shows that the profitability of the company
has degraded as compared to the previous year. The reason being decrease
of sales and increase in interest expenses on account of increase in loan
liability.
Analysis of Comparative Balance Sheet (Absolute Change)
The fixed asset of the company has been increased considerably in comparison to
the capital employed. The purchase of fixed asset is financed by long term loans.
So, this Company is more dependent on outsider’s fund. The Company should
take steps for redemption of the long term debt & should rely upon the owner’s
fund through internal funds generation. The working capital of the company also
stands at negative figure which proves that the current assets and the current
liabilities are not proportionately maintained. The ideal current ratio should be 2.
Therefore, it can be rightly said that the company is short of liquid funds.
Analysis Common Size Income Statement
It shows that the net sales of the company increased as compared to
previous year. The Gross Profit & Net Profit also increased proportionately.
However the operating expenses as a percentage of sales increased by 3.38% and
hence there is a scope of cost reduction to that effect. Overall the company has
been able to increase its profitability considerably.
Analysis of Common Size balance sheet
In the present day of economic world, generally companies depend more on
outsiders funds. In this context, both the year have good financial planning but in
2009 is more financed on traditional lines.
In the year company is suffering from inadequacy of working capital. The
percentage of current liability is more than the percentage of current assets. So,
in this case company should take immediate appropriate step to issue more
capital or raise long term loans to raise working capital position.
Analysis of Comparative Balance sheet i n comparison to share Capital
Employed
The company’s fixed assets have been increased considerable in
comparison to the Capital employed. The purchase of fixed assets is mainly by
rising of the long term loans although there was an expansion of share capital. So
the company is more dependent on outsider’s fund. The company should take
steps for redemption of these long term loans & should rely on the owner’s fund
through internal cash generation. A further expansion of paid up share capital
can be an option.

CONCLUSION:

The Company’s net sales & net profit has been decreased as compared to
previous year. The decreased profit is not a good indicator of the Company’s
future prospects. The company’s fixed asset has increased considerably. There
was an expansion of share capital and loan funds to finance the same. The
increase in interest expenses accounted for the decrease in profitability. The
working capital of the company also stands at a negative figure which speaks
volumes about the poor short term solvency of the company. Dipping of sales
adds to the difficulties of the company financially. The earnings per share has
also decreased considerably.

Immediate steps are required to put the company into the right track.
