(Consolidated Figures in Rs. Crores)

Company for the past 3 years;
The above spreadsheet indicates the change in value and percentage across 3 years of the
company’s balance sheet, source of data was obtained from;
https://www.screener.in/company/INDIAGLYCO/consolidated/#balance-sheet
B: Comments upon the Current Assets & Non-Current Assets, Current Liability & Non-
Current Liabilities:
I. Current Assets & Non-Current Assets:
As it can be observed from the data above the Current Asset of the
company indicates; that the inventory has increased by 5.4% from the
year 2019-2020, that is the company had enough stock to operate the
business, hence enough products to supply at the market. But
considering the financial period 2020-2021, the company has faced a
drastic drop in inventory by negative 10.6%, this indicates that there
was more supply at the market, and this is why the company has less
trade receivables negative 36% which show that the customers have
paid their dues, hence increasing Cash equivalents by 6%.
Given the data above, the Current liabilities particularly Trade payables
have been decreasing throughout the business period by 2019-2020 it
decreased by (2.8%) and 2020-2021 by (19.5%). This indicates that
the company is able to deliver services to its customers and supply them
goods on time.
The above shown Excel sheet is the data that was calculated according to the given values from
the balance sheet, as it is observed the Current ratios of 3 years there is a very small difference.
That is Given that the Current ratio of 2019,2020 and 2021 are 0.79, 0.89 and 0.97
Respectively. However, the current ratio is still below 1 in the last financial year 2020-2021
which was 0.97, this indicates that the company does not have enough liquid assets to cover any
short-term liabilities.
Eventually in each financial year the company has been improving to meet its liabilities, so it’s a
positive change from the year 2019 to 2021. That means the company is capable of doing better
in the future if it continues with the trend.
II. Debtor Turnover Ratio:
The above table indicates the calculated Debtors Turnover Ratio for the financial period of 2019
to 2021. Data was obtained from,
https://www.screener.in/company/INDIAGLYCO/consolidated/#profit-loss
According to the observation, the company’s Debt ratio has been changing from 2019 to 2021,
that is in the year 2019 the company had a high debt ratio of 6.1 which indicates that the
company was doing a good job at collecting revenue from its customer base.
Eventually from the financial year 2020 to 2021, the debt ratio has dropped to 4.1 in 2020 and
3.5 in 2021. This shows that the company has poor collection which leads to extending credits to
bad customers for a very long period.
III. Debt Equity Ratio:
The above excel sheet indicates the calculated Debt Equity Ratio of the company for the 3-year
financial period.
According to the observed data, it shows that during the year 2019 the company had a debt ratio
of 1.04, meaning that the company uses Rs.1.04 in debt for every Rs.1 of equity. Hence this was
the highest ratio compared to the current year.
However, the financial years 2020 and 2021 had a small decrease in ratio that was 0.94 and 0.95
respectively this shows that the company has reduced the risk towards loans/debt.
The above Excel sheet indicates the Proprietary ration of 3 financial period of the company, as it
is observed the company has a low ratio that is below 1 as seen the ratios are 0.26, 0.26 and 0.29
for the year 2019, 2020 and 2021 respectively.
However, this indicates that the company is at a high risk of bankruptcy due to much use of the
trade payables rather than equity.
1. Return on Asset
Where by; Return on asset = Net Income / Total Asset
Above is the Excel sheet indicating the calculated Return on Asset for financial
years of the companies, 2020 and 2021.
2. Return on Investment:
Whereas; ROI = (Earnings Before Interest and Tax/ Total funds) *100
The above Excel sheet indicates the calculated Return on Investment for both companies, A clear
picture is shown by the competitor PIDILITE Ltd. Its return is higher than INDIA GLYCO. For
both 2 financial years.
CONCLUSION:
So, based on the information collected and analyzed from the above two companies,
PIDILITE and INDIA GLYCO, I would prefer to invest on PIDILITE because it
seems to have a high return at the end of the financial period, hence this indicates that
the company is serious on doing business and has a focused target in the future.
