INTRODUCTION TO TOPIC
RATIO ANALYSIS
The term “Ratio” refers to the numerical and quantitative relationship between two
items or variables. This relationship can be exposed as
• Percentages
• Fractions
• Proportion of numbers
Ratio analysis is defined as the systematic use of the ratio to interpret the financial
statements. So that the strengths and weaknesses of a firm, as well as its historical
performance and current financial condition can be determined by ratio analysis,
Ratio reflects a quantitative relationship helps to form a quantitative judgment.
Steps in Ratio Analysis
• The first task of the financial analysis is to select the information relevant to
the decision under consideration from the statements and calculates
appropriate ratios.
• To compare the calculated ratios with the ratios of the same firm relating to the
pas6t or with the industry ratios. It facilitates in assessing success or failure of
the firm.
• Third step is to interpretation, drawing of inferences and report writing
conclusions are drawn after comparison in the shape of report or
recommended courses of action.
Basis or Standards of Comparison
Ratios are relative figures reflecting the relation between variables. They enable
analyst to draw conclusions regarding financial operations. They use of ratios as a tool
of financial analysis involves the comparison with related facts. This is the basis of
ratio analysis. The basis of ratio analysis is of four types.
• Past ratios, calculated from past financial statements of the firm.
• Competitor’s ratio, of the some most progressive and successful competitor
firm at the same point of time.
• Projected ratios, ratios of the future developed from the projected or pro forma
financial statements.
1
Nature of Ratio Analysis
Ratio analysis is a technique of analysis and interpretation of financial statements. It is
the process of establishing and interpreting various ratios for helping in making
certain decisions. It is only a means of understanding of financial strengths and
weaknesses of a firm. There are a number of ratios which can be calculated from the
information given in the financial statements, but the analyst has to select the
appropriate data and calculate only a few appropriate ratios. The following are the
four steps involved in the ratio analysis.
• Selection of relevant data from the financial statements depending upon the
objective of the analysis.
• Calculation of appropriate ratios from the above data.
• Comparison of the calculated ratios with the ratios of the same firm in the
past, or the ratios developed from projected financial statements or the ratios
of some other firms or the comparison with ratios of the industry to which the
firm belongs.
Interpretation of the Ratios
The interpretation of ratios is an important factor. The inherent limitations of ratio
analysis should be kept in mind while interpreting them. The impact of factors such as
price level changes, change in accounting policies, window dressing etc., should also
be kept in mind when attempting to interpret ratios. The interpretation of ratios can be
made in the following ways.
• Single absolute ratio
• Group of ratios
• Historical comparison
• Projected ratios
• Inter-firm comparison
CLASSIFICATIONS OF RATIOS
The use of ratio analysis is not confined to financial manager only. There are different
parties interested in the ratio analysis for knowing the financial position of a firm for
different purposes. Various accounting ratios can be classified as follows:
• Traditional Classification
• Functional Classification
• Significance ratios
1. Traditional Classification
3
• Balance sheet (or) position statement ratio: They deal with the relationship
between two balance sheet items, e.g. the ratio of current assets to current
liabilities etc., both the items must, however, pertain to the same balance sheet.
• Profit & loss account (or) revenue statement ratios: These ratios deal with the
relationship between two profit & loss account items, e.g. the ratio of gross
profit to sales etc.,
• Composite (or) inter statement ratios: These ratios exhibit the relation between
a profit & loss account or income statement item and a balance sheet items,
e.g. stock turnover ratio, or the ratio of total assets to sales.
2. Functional Classification
These include liquidity ratios, long term solvency and leverage ratios, activity ratios
and profitability ratios.
3. Significance ratios
Some ratios are important than others and the firm may classify them as primary and
secondary ratios. The primary ratio is one, which is of the prime importance to a
concern. The other ratios that support the primary ratio are called secondary ratios.
In The View of Functional Classification the Ratios Are
• Liquidity ratio
• Leverage ratio
• Activity ratio
• Profitability ratio
1. LIQUIDITY RATIOS
Liquidity refers to the ability of a concern to meet its current obligations as & when
there becomes due. The short term obligations of a firm can be met only when there
are sufficient liquid assets. The short term obligations are met by realizing amounts
from current, floating (or) circulating assets The current assets should either be
calculated liquid (or) near liquidity. They should be convertible into cash for paying
obligations of short term nature. The sufficiency (or) insufficiency of current assets
should be assessed by comparing them with short-term current liabilities. If current
assets can pay off current liabilities, then liquidity position will be satisfactory.
4
• Quick (or) Acid-test (or) Liquid ratio
• Absolute liquid ratio (or) Cash position ratio
Current Assets
Current Ratio = Current Liabilities
5
Cash in hand Outstanding or accrued expenses
Cash at bank Bank over draft
Bills receivable Bills payable
Sundry debtors Short-term advances
Marketable securities Sundry creditors
Temporary investments Dividend payable
Income tax payable
2. LEVERAGE RATIOS
The leverage or solvency ratio refers to the ability of a concern to meet its long term
obligations. Accordingly, long term solvency ratios indicate firm’s ability to meet the
6
fixed interest and costs and repayment schedules associated with its long term
borrowings.
The following ratio serves the purpose of determining the solvency of the concern.
• Debt Equity Ratio
• Debt to total Funds Ratio
• Proprietary Ratio
• Fixed Assets to Proprietor’s Fund Ratio
• Capital Gearing Ratio
• Interest Coverage Ratio
Debt
Debt to Total Funds Ratio = Equity + Debt
7
Components of Debt to Total Funds Ratio
3. ACTIVITY RATIOS
Funds are invested in various assets in business to make sales and earn profits. The
efficiency with which assets are managed directly affects the volume of sales. Activity
ratios measure the
9
efficiency (or) effectiveness with which a firm manages its resources (or) assets.
These ratios are also called “Turn over ratios” because they indicate the speed with
which assets are converted or turned over into sales.
• Stock Turnover Ratio
• Debtors Turnover Ratio
• Creditors Turnover Ratio
• Working capital turnover ratio
• Fixed assets turnover ratio
(A) STOCK TURNOVER RATIO
Stock turnover ratio is also known as inventory stock ratio is normally calculated as
sales/ average inventory or cost of goods sold/ average inventory. It would indicate
whether inventory has been efficiently used or not. The purpose is to see whether only
the required minimum funds have been locked up in inventory. Inventory Turnover
Ratio (I.T.R.) indicates the number of times the stock has been turned over during the
period and evaluates the efficiency with which a firm is able to manage its inventory.
Cost of Goods Sold
Stock Turnover Ratio = Average Stock
10
turnover is basically the same as of debtors’ turnover ratio except that in place of trade
debtors, the trade creditors are taken as one of the components of the ratio and in
place of average daily sales, average daily purchases are taken as the other component
of the ratio.
Net Credit Purchases
Creditors Turnover Ratio = Average Trade Cr.
11
It is also known as sales to fixed assets ratio. This ratio measures the efficiency and
profit earning capacity of the firm. Higher the ratio, greater is the intensive utilization
of fixed assets. Lower ratio means under-utilization of fixed assets.
Cost of Sales
Fixed Assets Turnover Ratio = Net Fixed Assets
4. PROFITABILITY RATIOS
The primary objectives of business undertaking are to earn profits. Because profit is
the engine, that drives the business enterprise. Generally, profitability ratios are
calculated either in relation to sales or in relation to investment. The various
profitability ratios are discussed below.
• GENERAL PROFITABILITY RATIO
• Gross Profit Ratio
• Net Profit Ratio
• Operating Ratio
• PROFITABILITY RATIO BASED ON INVESTMENT
• Return on Capital Employed
• Return on Shareholder’s Funds
GENERAL PROFITABILITY RATIO
(a) GROSS PROFIT RATIO
Gross profit ratio measures the relationship of gross profit to net sales and is usually
represented as a percentage. Thus, it is calculated by dividing the gross profit by sales.
Gross Profit
Gross Profit Ratio = Net Sales
12
Net Profit after Tax
Net Profit Ratio = Net Sales
Net Profit after Tax = Net Profit (–) Depreciation (–) Interest (–) Income Tax
Operating Cost
Operating Ratio = Net Sales
Operating Profit
Operating Profit Ratio = Sales

From ancient times, Haryana is known as home of milk as a famous saying tells us
"Deshon mein desh Haryana jit dooth dahi ka khana" cattle of Haryana are world
famous for their high yielding capacity for instance Haryana cows and murrah
buffaloes are among the best yielder of milk in the country.
Milk Reception:
Milk plant, Sirsa is handled by Sirsa Co-operative milk Producer's Union Limited,
Sirsa. Milk is collected from the villages through docks are used for entry of Milk
from trucks. A sample is taken from each container from testing and sample giving
17
positive test rejected and left of the milk is put into tub from which through pipes
milk goes for the further processing payment is made to milk producer by
weighing & measuring fat percentage. After reception two types of tests are done
to judge the quality of milk.
Platform test/ organoleptic tests

occupation. Milk production in the State was estimated around 128.18 lacs litres
per day during 1999-2000.
There are five milk plants operating in the Cooperative Sector in Haryana. These
are located at Ambala, SIRSA, Rohtak, Sirsa and Ballabgarh having a handling
capacity of 4, 70,000 litres per day.
At present 16 brands across 15 states and one union territory are participating in the
campaign.
The essence of various programmes launched in the State has been to adopt the
ANAND PATTERN of Milk Co-operatives. Under this system, all the functions of
dairying like milk procurement, processing and marketing are controlled by the Milk
producers themselves. It has three tier system comprising milk Producers Societies at
the village level, Milk Producers Co-operative Union at the district level and the state
Milk Federation as an apex body at the state level.
19
Quality –VITA the Hallmark of Quality
As part of stringent quality measures, milk required for processing VITA products is
procured from Dairy Co-operative Societies only. It is ensured that the milk is
transported to chilling canters and plants in clean and sterilized milk cans as quickly
as possible. All quality measures as per Standard of Bureau of Indian Standards/
Agmark are being applied before the products are marketed. Well-equipped
laboratories are functioning in the chilling centers and milk plants to maintain ideal
quality standards. VITA is the endorsement of quality, a commendation we are Proud
of. Milk Plant Rohtak, Ballabgarh, Ambala and SIRSA have obtained ISO-9002 and
IS-15000 certificates. Remaining Plants would also obtain ISO-9002 shortly. Each

INDUSTRY PROFILE
INTRODUCTION
The dairy industries companies run mainly on the factors such as Price, availability,
service frequency, affordability, taste and marketing. Price plays a vital role because
purchasing power is depend upon price and availability of that product, in case
distributors and retailers service matter a lot in Institution business.
From chronic shortages of milk, India has emerged today as the largest producer of
milk in the world crossing 97 million tonnes. It is 'The Oyster' of the global dairy
industry. It offers opportunities galore to entrepreneurs worldwide, who wish to
capitalize on one of the world's largest and fastest growing markets for milk and milk
products. A bagful of 'pearls' awaits the international dairy processor in India. The
Indian dairy industry is rapidly growing, trying to keep pace with the galloping
progress around the world.
The effective milk market is largely confined to urban areas, inhabited by over 25 per
cent of the country's population. An estimated 50 per cent of the total milk produced
is consumed here. By the end of 2007, the urban population is expected to increase by
more than 100 million to touch 864 million in 2007 a growth of about 40 per cent.
The expected rise in urban population would be a boon to Indian dairying. Presently,
the organized sector both cooperative and private and the traditional sector cater to
this market.
The urban market for milk products is expected to grow at an accelerated pace of
around 33% per annum to around Rs.83,500 crores by year 2010. This growth is
going to come from the greater emphasis on the processed foods sector and also by
increase in the conversion of milk into milk products. By 2010, the value of Indian
dairy produce is expected to be Rs 10,00,000 million.
Beginning in organized milk handling was made in India with the establishment of
Military Dairy Farms. Handling of milk in Co-operative Milk Unions established all
over the country on a small scale in the early stages. Long distance refrigerated rail-
transport of milk from Anand to Bombay since 1945.
Pasteurization and bottling of milk on a large scale for organized distribution was
started at Aarey (1950), Calcutta (Haringhata, 1959), Delhi (1959), Worli (1961),
Madras (1963) etc.
Establishment of Milk Plants under the Five-Year Plans for Dairy Development all
over India. These were taken up with the dual object of increasing the national level
of milk consumption and ensuing better returns to the primary milk producer. Their
main aim was to produce more, better and cheaper milk.
Milk Production
27
• India's milk production increased from 21.2 million MT in 1968 to more than 100
million MT in 2008-09.
• Per capita availability of milk presently is 250 grams per day, up from 112 grams
per day in 1968-69.
• India's 3.8 percent annual growth of milk production surpasses the 2 percent
growth in population; the net increase in availability is around 2 percent per year.
Innovation
• Milk travels as far as 2,200 kilometers to deficit areas, carried by innovative rail
and road milk tankers.
Macro Impact
• The annual value of India's milk production amounts to about Rs. 900 billion.
• Dairy industry represents a huge opportunity being the largest singl FMCG
Market
• Ensuring Quality
28
OPERATION FLOOD
Programmed implementation:
Phase Phase I (1970-1980) was financed by the sale of skimmed milk powder and
butter oil gifted by the European Union then EEC through the World Food
Programme. NDDB planned the programme and negotiated the details of EEC
assistance. During its first phase, Operation Flood linked 18 of India's premier milk
sheds with consumers in India's four major metropolitan cities: Delhi, Mumbai,
Calcutta and Chennai.
Phase Operation Flood's Phase II (1981-85) increased the milk sheds from 18 to
136; 290 urban markets expanded the outlets for milk. By the end of 1985, a self-
sustaining system of 43,000 village cooperatives covering 4.25 million milk producers
had become a reality. Domestic milk powder production increased from 22,000 tons
in the pre-project year to 140,000 tons by 1989, all of the increase coming from
dairies set up under Operation Flood. In this way EEC gifts and World Bank loan
helped to promote self-reliance. Direct marketing of milk by producers' cooperatives
increased by several million litres a day.
Phase Phase III (1985-1996) enabled dairy cooperatives to expand and strengthen
the infrastructure required to procure and market increasing volumes of milk.
Veterinary first-aid health care services, feed and artificial insemination services for
cooperative members were extended, along with intensified member education.
From the outset, Operation Flood was conceived and implemented as much more than
a dairy programme. Rather, dairying was seen as an instrument of development,
29
generating employment and regular incomes for millions of rural people. "Operation
Flood can be viewed as a twenty year experiment confirming the Rural Development
Vision" (World Bank Report 1997c.)
The National Dairy and Development Board was founded in 1965, with the mission of
organizing poor milk producers, thereby transforming dairying into an instrument for
the economic development of India’s rural people. The formation of the NDDB
stemmed from the vision of the then Prime Minister of India, the late Lal Bahadur
Shastri, to extend the success of the Kaira Cooperative Milk Producer’s Union (in the
state of Mother) to other parts of India.
NDDB began its operations with the mission of making dairying a vehicle to a better
future for millions of grassroots milk producers. The mission achieved thrust and
direction with the launching of "Operation Flood" in 1970, a programme extending
over 30 years and which used World Bank loan to finance India's emergence as the
world's largest milk producing nation. During this period, dairy commodity surpluses
were building up in Europe. Imports from Europe had already adversely affected the
dairy industry in India. Imports by individual players in India would have resulted in a
market glut and a fall in the prices throughout the country. With the backing of
government policy, and with the assistance of the World Food Program, NDDB
imported food aid in the form of milk powder and butter oil, and marketed it under its
own brand name.
The surplus from these sales was invested in the expansion of the cooperative
movement in the dairy industry. Operation Flood's third phase was completed in 1996
and has to its credit a number of significant achievements. Since its inception, the
Dairy Board has planned and spearheaded India's dairy programmes by placing dairy
development in the hands of milk producers and the professionals they employ to
manage their cooperatives. In addition, NDDB also promotes other commodity-based
co-operatives, allied industries and veterinary biologicals on an intensive and nation-
wide basis. NDDB's subsidiaries include Mother Dairy, Delhi.
30
Major Players
National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) is the central cooperative board of the
country and was created to promote, finance and support producer-owned and
controlled organizations mentioned above.
Two main players – Mother of GCMMF and Mother Dairy of NDDB – is the
leading brand in India. Our main focus is to analyze the strategic move of NDDB for
31
mother Dairy from top to bottom. Thus we are going to concentrate on the progress of
Mother Diary and NDDB for their future strategies.

DATA ANALYSIS
1. LIQUIDITY RATIOS
Liquidity refers to the ability of a concern to meet its current obligations as & when
there becomes due. The short term obligations of a firm can be met only when there
are sufficient liquid assets. The short term obligations are met by realizing amounts
from current, floating (or) circulating assets The current assets should either be
calculated liquid (or) near liquidity. They should be convertible into cash for paying
obligations of short term nature. The sufficiency (or) insufficiency of current assets
should be assessed by comparing them with short-term current liabilities. If current
assets can pay off current liabilities, then liquidity position will be satisfactory.
To measure the liquidity of a firm the following ratios can be calculated
• Current ratio
• Quick (or) Acid-test (or) Liquid ratio
• Absolute liquid ratio (or) Cash position ratio
LIQUIDITY RATIO
A. CURRENT RATIO

2017-18 493669302.07 30760257.42 16.05
Interpretation
As a rule, the current ratio with 2:1 or more is considered as satisfactory position of
the firm. As we can see that in the year 2016-2017 current ratio is 16.05:1 which has
reached very high as compared to previous five years which shows that the company
is not utilizing the liquid funds properly and company is in a position to pay its
33
current liabilities out of its current assets in time. As per the rule this ratio is good.
But very high ratio is not good for the company.
B. QUICK RATIO

2017-18 381937673.10 30760257.42 12.42
Interpretation
As a rule, the quick ratio with 1:1 or more is considered as satisfactory position of the
firm. As we can see that in the year 2016-2017 quick ratio is 12.42:1 which has
reached very high as compared to previous five years which shows that company is
able to pay off current obligations immediately. As per the rule this ratio is good. But
very high ratio is not good for the company
Interpretation
Absolute Liquid Ratio of 0.5:1 or more is supposed to be an ideal ratio. As we can see
that in the year 2016-2017 current ratio is 1.06:1 which has reached very high as
compared to previous five years which shows that company’s short-term financial
position is good. As per the rule this ratio is good and it is also good for the company.
34
2. LEVERAGE RATIOS
The leverage or solvency ratio refers to the ability of a concern to meet its long term
obligations. Accordingly, long term solvency ratios indicate firm’s ability to meet the
fixed interest and costs and repayment schedules associated with its long term
borrowings.
The following ratio serves the purpose of determining the solvency of the concern.
• Debt Equity Ratio
• Debt to total Funds Ratio
• Proprietary Ratio
• Fixed Assets to Proprietor’s Fund Ratio
• Capital Gearing Ratio
• Interest Coverage Ratio
LEVERAGE RATIOS

2017-18 261000000.00 71813190.97 3.63
Interpretation
Debt Equity Ratio of 2:1 or less is supposed to be an ideal ratio. As we can see that
from the year 2013-14 to 2015-16 the ratio is less than 2:1 but in the last year 2017-18
this ratio is 3.63:1 which is higher than ideal ratio which show that company claims of
outsiders in long term (creditors) are greater than those of owners.
