EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Banking has been defined by Banking Regulation Act of 1948 as "it is accepting for the
purpose of lending or investment of deposits from the public, repayable on demand on
otherwise and withdraw able by cheque, draft, orders or otherwise".
So, from this definition we can easily say that banking is a very complicated process. In this
complicated process to run the bank smoothly it is the primary duty of a bank to take care of
the working capital seriously, because the definition of Working capital is defined as "The
firm's total investment in current assets or assets that it expects to be converted into cash
within a year or less".
Management of working capital includes consideration for net working capital, by managing
current assets to current liabilities. This means organizations have to factor in a certain
number of risk-return trade-offs in the decision-making process. If an organization does not
increase their net working capital enough, they run more of a risk of struggling to pay their
bills. But if they increase the working capital too much, they are taking away from the
profitability of the organization. In order to avoid problems, organizations have to make
good decisions which overlap, between current assets and how current liabilities are used.
The essence of the study is that the highest valued asset of a banking company is its working
capital which constitutes the major part of total capital of the banking company. It helps to
know the current condition of the bank, the total amount of its current assets, and the total
amount of its current liabilities.
The theoretical aspects of the study with detail relevance to banking system, progress of
commercial banks, introduction to working capital management, profile of the State Bank of
India which speaks about the introduction of SBI, SWOT analysis of SBI, its major

INTRODUCTION TO ROLE OF WORKING CAPITAL IN SUCCESS OF
BUSINESS: -
1.2] Introduction to Working Capital: -
In a perfect world, there would be no necessity for current assets and liabilities because there would be no
uncertainty, no transaction costs, information search costs, or production and technology constraints. The
unit cost of production would not vary with the quantity produced. Borrowing and lending rates shall be
same. Capital, labour, and product market shall be perfectly competitive and would reflect all available
information, thus in such an environment, there would be no advantage for investing in shorter assets.
However, the world we live is not perfect.
It is characterized by considerable amount of uncertainty regarding the demand, Market price, quality and
availability of own products and those of suppliers. There are transaction costs for purchasing or selling
goodsor securities. Information is costly to obtain and is not equally distributed. There are spreads between
the borrowings and lending rates for investments and financings of equal risks. Similarly, each organization
is facedwith its own limits on the production capacity and technologies it can employ there are fixed as well
as variable costs associated with production goods.
In other words, the markets in which real firm operated are not perfectly competitive. These real-world
circumstances introduce problem`s which require the necessity of maintaining working capital. For
example, an organization may be faced with an uncertainty regarding availability of sufficient quantity of
crucial imputes in future at reasonable price. This may necessitate the holding of inventory, current assets.
Similarly, an organization may be faced with an uncertainty regarding the level of its future cash flows and
insufficient amount of cash may incur substantial costs. This may necessitate the holding of reserve of short-
term marketable securities, again a short-term capital asset. Incorporate financial management, the term
working capital management (net) represents the excess of current assets over current liabilities.
In simple words working capital is the excess of current Assets over current Liabilities. Working capital has
ordinarily been defined as the excess of current assets over current liabilities. Working capital is heart of the
business if it is weak business cannot proper and survives. It is therefore said the fate of large-scale
investment in fixed assets is often determined by a relatively small amount of current assets. As the working
capital is important to lifeline of company If this lifeline deteriorates so that the company’s ability to fund
operation, re-invest do meet capital requirements and payment. Understanding company`s cash flow health is
essential to making investment decision. A good way to judge a company`s cash flow prospects is to look at
its working capital management. The company must have adequate working capital as much asneeded
by the company.
It should neither be excessive or nor inadequate. Excessive working capital cuisses for idle funds lying
with the firm without earning any profit, where as inadequate working capital shows the company doesn’t
have sufficient funds for financing its daily needs working capital management involves study of the
relationship between firm`s current assets and current liabilities. The goal of working capital management
is to ensure that a short-term debt and upcoming operational expenses. The better a company manager its
working capital, the less the company needs to borrow. Even companies with cash surpluses need to
manage working capital to ensure those surpluses are invested in ways that will generate suitable returns
for investors.

Objective of working capital
1. Commercial Banks: -
1. Scheduled Commercial Banks -constitute those banks which have been included in the
second Scheduled of Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Act, 1934. RBI in turn includes only those banks in
this schedule which satisfy the criteria laid down vide section 42 (60) of the Act. Some co-operative
banks are scheduled commercial banks albeit not all co-operative banks are. Being a part of the second
schedule confers some benefits to the bank in terms of access to accommodation by RBI during the
time of liquidity constraints. At the sometimes, however, this status also subjects the bank to certain
conditions and obligation towards the reserve regulations of RBI. This sub sector can broadly be
classified into: -
1. Public sector
2. Private sector
Foreign banks Public sector banks have either the Government of India or Reserve Bank of India as the
majorityshareholder. This segment comprises of:
1. State Bank of India (SBI) and its subsidiaries;
2. Other nationalized banks
Nationalized Banks State Bank Group Old Private Banks New Private Banks
62.89% 37.11% 62.93% 37.07%

1. Commercial Banks: -
Banking is more than 225 old in our country. The first bank called the bank of Hindustan was
established in 1770. Since then, there has never been any let up and as of today, there are 295 banks
with 66514 branches spread across the country.
Note:-
1. Scheduled Commercial Banks are exclusive of regional rural banks.
2. Figures in the bracket indicate number of banks each group.
3. Figures in percentage indicate the share of assets of each sub-group in the total assets of their
respectivegroup.
2. Co-operative banks: -
There are two main categories of the co-operative banks.
(a) Short Term Lending Oriented Co-operative Banks
Within this category there are three sub category of banks wiz state co-operative banks, District co-
operativebanks and Primary Agricultural co-operative societies.
(b) Long Term Lending Oriented Co-operative Banks
Within the second category there are land development banks at three levels- state level, district
level andvillage level. The co-operative banking structure in India is divided into following main
5 categories
1. Primary Urban Co-operative Banks
2. Primary Agricultural Credit Societies
3. District Central Co-operative Banks
4. State Co-operative Banks
5. Land Development Bank
Banking Basics: -
Banking Regulation Act of India, 1949 defines Banking as accepting, for the purpose of lending or
lending of investment of deposits of money from the public, repayable on demand or otherwise and
withdraw able by cheque, draft, order or otherwise.
Most of the activities a Bank performs are derived from the above definition; In addition, Banks are
allowed to perform certain activities which are ancillary to this business of accepting deposits and
lending. A banks relationship with the public, therefore, revolves around accepting deposits and lending
money. Another activity which is assuming increasing importance is transfer of money both domestic
and foreign from one place to another. This activity generally known as remittance business in banking
parlance. The so-called FOREX (foreign exchange) business is largely a part of remittance albeit it
involves buying and selling of foreign currencies.

Functions of banks: -
Functioning of a Bank is among the more complicated of corporate operations. Since Banking
involves dealing directly with money, government in most countries regulates this sector rather
stringently. In India, the regulation traditionally has been very strict and in the opinion of certain
quarters, responsible for the present condition of banks, where NPAs are of a very high order. The
process of financial reforms, which started in 1991, has cleared the cobwebs somewhat but a lot remains
to be done. The multiplicity of policy and regulationsthat a bank has to work with makes its operations
even more complicated, sometimes bordering on illogical. This section, which is also intended for
banking professional, attempts to give an overview of the functions in assimple manner as possible. As
per the banking Regulation Act of 1949 and viewed solely from the point of viewof the customers,
Current Scenario: -
Currently overall banking in India is considered as fairly mature in terms of supply, product range
and reaches even though reach in rural India still remains a challenge for the private sector and foreign
banks. Even in terms of quality of assets and capital adequacy, Indian banks are considered to have
clean, strong and transparent balance sheets as compared to other banks incomparable economies in its
region. The Reserve Bank of India is an autonomous body, with minimal pressure from the government.
The stated policy of the Bank on the Indian Rupee is to manage volatility without any stated exchange
rate and this has mostly been true. Withthe growth in the Indian economy expected to be strong for
quite some time especially in its services sector, the demand for banking services especially retail
banking, mortgages and investment services are expected to be strong. M&As, takeovers, asset sales
and much more action (as it is unravelling in China) will happen on this front in India.
The first time an investor has been allowed to hold more than 5% in a private sector bank since RBI
announced norms in 2005 that any stake exceeding 5% in the private sector banks would need to be
vetted by them. Currently, Indian has 88 scheduled commercial banks (SCBs) 28 public sector banks,
29 private banks (these do not government stake; they may be publicly listed and traded on stock
exchanges) and 31 foreign banks. They have a combined network of over 53000 branches and 17000
ATMs. According to are port by ICRA Limited, a rating agency, the public sector banks hold over
75%of total assets of the banking industry, with private and foreign banks holding18.2% and 6.5%
respectively.
1.5] Profile of State Bank of India: -
The evolution of State Bank of India can be traced back to the first decade of the 19th century. It began
with the establishment of the Bank of Calcutta in Calcutta, on 2 June 1806. The bank was redesigned as
the Bank of Bengal, three years later, on 2 January 1809. It was the first ever joint-stock bank of the British
India, established under the sponsorship of the Government of Bengal. Subsequently, the Bank of Bombay
(established on 15 April 1840)and the Bank of Madras (established on 1 July 1843) followed the
Bank of Bengal.
7
These three banks dominated the modern banking scenario in India, until when they were amalgamated
to form the Imperial Bank of India; on 27January 1921.An important turning point in the history of State
Bank of India is the launch of the first Five Year Plan of independent India, in 1951. The Plan aimed at
serving the Indian economy in general and the rural sector of the country, in particular sector of the country.
Until the Plan, the commercial banks of the country, including the Imperial Bank of India, confined their
services to the urban sector. Moreover, they were not equipped to respond to the growing needs of the
economic revival taking shape in the rural areas of the country.
Therefore, in order to serve the economy as a whole and rural sector in particular, the All India Rural
Credit Survey Committee recommended the formation of a state-partnered and state-sponsored bank. The
All India Rural Credit Survey Committee proposed the takeover of the Imperial Bank of India, and
integrating with it, the former state-owned or state-associate banks. Subsequently, an Act was passed in the
Parliament of India in May 1955. As a result, the State Bank of India (SBI) was established on1 July 1955.
This resulted in making the StateBank of India more powerful, because as much as a quarter of the resources
of the Indian banking system were controlled directly by the State. Later on, the State Bank of India
(Subsidiary Banks) Act was passed in 1959. The Act enabled the State Bank of India to make the eight
former State-associated banks as its subsidiaries.
The State Bank of India emerged as a pacesetter, with its operations carried out by the 480 offices
comprising branches, sub offices and three Local Head Offices, inherited from the Imperial Bank. Instead
of serving as mere repositories of the community's savings and lending to creditworthy parties, the State
Bank of India catered to the needs of the customers, by banking purposefully. The bank served the
heterogeneous financial needs of the planned economic development.

Working capital can be classified either on the basis of its concept or on the basis of
periodicity of itsrequirement.
(I) On the basis of concepts- there are two concepts of working capital: -
Gross working capital refers to the firm’s investment in current assets. Current assets are assets that
can be converted into cash within an accounting year. Current assets include cash and bank balance,
Short-term securities, debtors, bills receivables and inventory. The Gross Working Capital concept
focuses attention on twoaspects of current assets management.
(a) Optimum investment in current assets
(b) Financing of current assets.
16
2. NET WORKING CAPITAL:-
Net working capital refers to the difference between current assets and current liabilities. Current
liabilities are those claims of outsiders, which are expected to mature for payment within an accounting
year and include bills payable and outstanding expenses. Net working capacity indicates the liquidity
position of the firm. Generally net working capacity is referred to as working capital.
According to Gestenberg, the working capital can be classified into permanent or regular working
capital and variable working capital.
Operating Cycle: -
It is clear that working capital is required because of the time gap between the sales and their actual
realization in cash. This time gap is technically termed as operating cycle of the business. Funds required
investing in inventories; debtors and other current assets keep on changing shape and volume. Like a
company has some cash in the beginning. This cash may be to the suppliers of raw material, to meet
labour costs andother overheads. These three combined would generate WIP, which will be converted into
finished goods on completion of production process. On sale these finished goods gets converted into
debtors and debtors pay, thefirm will again have cash
This cash will again used for financing raw materials, WIP, etc. Thus, there is a complete cycle when
cash gets converted into raw material, WIP finished goods, debtors and finally again cash. In case of a
manufacturingcompany, the operating cycle is the length of time necessary to complete the following cycle
of events:-
FINISHED GOODS
CASH
17
OBJECTIVES OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT:-
The basic objective of working capital is to provide adequate support for the smooth functioning of
normal business operations of a company. The term adequate working capital is subjective depending on
management’sattitude towards uncertainty/risk.
1. Maintenance of working capital.
2. Availability of ample funds at the time of need.Working Capital Cycle:-
The diagram below illustrates the working capital cycle for a manufacturing firm.
The diagram below illustrates the working capital cycle each component of working capital (namely inventory,
receivable and payables) has two dimensions TIME and MONEY. When they comes to managing working capital
TIME IS MONEY. If you can get money to move faster around the cycle (collect monies due from debtors more quickly)
or reduce the amount of money tied up (e., reduce inventory level relative to sales). The business will generate more
cash or it will need to borrow less money to fund working capital. As a consequence, you could reduce the cost of bank
interest or you will have additional free money available to support addition sales growth or investment. Similarly, if
you can negotiate improve terms with suppliers e.g.get longer credit or an increased credit limit; you festively create
freed finance to help fund future sales. A perusal of operational cycle reveals that the cash invested in operations are
recycled back in to cash. However it takes time to reconvert the cash. Cash flows in cycle into around and out of a
business it the business`s lifeblood and every manager`s primary task to help keep it following and to use the cash
flow to generate profits. The shorter the period of operating cycle. The larger will be the turnover of the funds invested
in various purposes. The upper portion of the diagram above shows in a simplified form the chain of events in
a manufacturing firm. Each of the boxes in the upper part of the diagram can be seen as a tank through which
funds flow. These tanks, which are concerned with day-to-day activities, have funds constantly flowing into
and out of them
1. The chain starts with the firm buying raw materials on credit.
2. In due course this stock will be used in production, work will be carried out on the stock, and it will
becomepart of the firm’s work in progress (WIP).
18
3. Work will continue on the WIP until it eventually emerges as the finished product.
4. As production progresses, labour costs and overheads will need to be me.
5. Of course at some stage trade creditors will need to be paid.
6. When the finished goods are sold on credit, debtors are increased.
7. They will eventually pay, so that cash will be injected into the firm.
Each of the areas stocks (raw materials, work in progress and finished goods), trade debtors, cash (positive
or negative) and trade creditors can be viewed as tanks into and from which funds flow. Working capital is
clearly not the only aspect of a business that affects the amount of cash:
Unlike movements in the working capital items, most of these non-working capital cash transactions are not
every day events. Some of them are annual events (e.g. tax payments, lease payments, dividends, interest
and, possibly, fixed asset purchases and sales). Others (e.g. new equity and loan finance and redemption of
old equityand loan finance) would typically be rarer events.
19
Need of Working Capital Management
The need for working capital gross or current assets cannot be overemphasized. As already observed, the
objective of financial decision making is to maximize the shareholders wealth. To achieve this, it is
necessary togenerate sufficient profits can be earned will naturally depend upon the magnitude of the sales
among other things but sales cannot convert into cash. There is a need for working capital in the form of
current assets to dealwith the problem arising out of lack of immediate realization of cash against goods
sold. Therefore sufficient working capital is necessary to sustain sales activity. Technically this 10 is refers
to operating or cash cycle. If the company has certain amount of cash, it will be required for purchasing the
raw material maybe available on credit basis.
Then the company has to spend some amount for labour and factory overhead to convert the raw material
in work in progress, and ultimately finished goods. These finished goods convert in to sales on credit basis
in the form of sundry debtors. Sundry debtors are converting into cash after expiry of credit period. Thus
some amountof cash is blocked in raw materials, WIP, finished goods, and sundry debtors and day to day
cash requirements. However some part of current assets may be financed by the current liabilities also. The
amount required to be invested in this current liabilities also. The amount required to be invested in this
current .
1. Nature of business: -
Some businesses are such, due to their very nature, that their requirement of fixed capital is more rather
than working capital. These businesses sell services and not the commodities and that too on cash basis.
As such, no founds are blocked in piling inventories and also no funds are blocked in receivables. E.g.
- public utility services like railways, infrastructure-oriented project etc. There requirement of working
capital is less. On the other hand, there are some businesses like trading activity, where requirement of
fixed capital is less but more money is blocked in inventories and debtors.
20
2. Length of production cycle: -
In some business-like machine tools industry, the time gap between the acquisition of raw material till
the end offinal production of finished products itself is quite high. As such amount may be blocked
either in raw material or work in progress or finished goods or even in debtors. Naturally there need of
working capital is high.
In very small company the working capital requirement is quit high due to high overhead, higher buying
and selling cost etc. as such medium size business positively has edge over the small companies. But if
the business start growing after certain limit, the working capital requirements may adversely affect by
the increasing size.
Sometime due to competition or custom, it may be necessary for the company to extend more and
more credit to customers, as result which more and more amount is locked up in debtors or bills
receivables which increase the working capital requirement. On the other hand, in the case of purchase,
if the credit is offered by suppliers of goods and services, a part of working capital requirement may be
financed by them, but it is necessary to purchase on cash basis, the working capital requirement will be
higher.
6. Profitability
The profitability of the business may be vary in each and every individual case, which is in turn its
depend on numerous factors, but high profitability will positively reduce the strain on working capital
requirement of the company, because the profits to the extent that they earned in cash may be used to
meet the working capital requirement of the company.
7. Operating efficiency
If the business is carried on more efficiently, it can operate in profits which may reduce the strain on
working capital; it may ensure proper utilization of existing resources by eliminating the waste and
improved coordination etc.
21
IMPORTANCE OR ADVANTAGE OF ADEQUATE WORKING CAPITAL
GOODWILL
Sufficient amount of working capital enables a firm to make prompt payments and makes and
maintain thegoodwill.
EASY LOANS
Adequate working capital leads to high solvency and credit standing can arrange loans from
banks and otheron easy and favorable terms.
CASH DISCOUNTS
Adequate working capital also enables a concern to avail cash discounts on the purchases and
hence reducescost.
Every business concern should have adequate amount of working capital to run its business operations. It
shouldhave neither redundant or excess working capital nor inadequate nor shortages of working capital.
Both excessas well as short working capital positions are bad for any business. However, it is the
inadequate working capital which is more dangerous from the point of view of the firm.
22
2. Redundant working capital leads to unnecessary purchasing and accumulation of inventories.
3. Excessive working capital implies excessive debtors and defective credit policy which causes
higherincidence of bad debts.
5. If a firm is having excessive working capital then the relations with banks and other financial
institution maynot be maintained.
6. Due to lower rate of return n investments, the values of shares may also fall.
Every business needs some amounts of working capital. The need for working capital arises due to the
time gap between production and realization of cash from sales. There is an operating cycle involved
in sales and realization of cash. There are time gaps in purchase of raw material and production;
production and sales; and realization of cash.
Thus working capital is needed for the following purposes:
For studying the need of working capital in a business, one has to study the business under varying
circumstances such as a new concern requires a lot of funds to meet its initial requirements such as
promotion and formation etc. These expenses are called preliminary expenses and are capitalized. The
amount needed for working capital depends upon the size of the company and ambitions of its promoters.
Greater the size of the business unit, generally larger will be the requirements of the working capital.
The requirement of the working capital goes on increasing with the growth and expensing of the business
till it gains maturity. At maturity the amount of working capital required is called normal working capital.
There are others factors also influence the need of working capital in a business
23
FACTORS DETERMINING THE WORKING CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
CREDIT POLICY: - A concern that purchases its requirements on credit and sales its product /
services on cash requires lesser amt. of working capital and vice-versa.
BUSINESS CYCLE: - In period of boom, when the business is prosperous, there is need for larger
amt. of working capital due to rise in sales, rise in prices, optimistic expansion of business, etc. On
the contrary in time of depression, the business contracts, sales decline, difficulties are faced in
collection from debtor and the firm may have a large amt. of working capital
RATE OF GROWTH OF BUSINESS: -In faster growing concern, we shall require large amt. of
working capital.
24
EARNING CAPACITY AND DIVIDEND POLICY: - Some firms have more earning capacity
than otherdue to quality of their products, monopoly conditions, etc. Such firms may generate cash
profits from operations and contribute to their working capital. The dividend policy also affects the
requirement of working capital. A firm maintaining a steady high rate of cash dividend irrespective
of its profits needs working capital than the firm that retains larger part of its profits and does not
pay so high rate of cash dividend.
PRICE LEVEL CHANGES: -Changes in the price level also affect the working capital
requirements. Generally, rise in prices leads to increase in working capital.
There are two major decisions management relating to working capital management: -
2. What should be the appropriate mix of short-term financing and long term financing for
financing thesecurrent assets?
If the firm can forecast accurately the factors, which effect the working capital, the investment in current
assets, can be designed uniquely. When uncertainty characteristics the above factors, as it usually
does the investmentin current assets cannot be specified uniquely. In case of uncertainty, the outlay on
current assets should consist of base component meant to meet normal requirement and a safety
component meant to cope with unusual requirement.
The safety component depends upon low conservative or aggressive in the current assets policy of a
firm. If the firm purchases a very conservative current asset policy it would carry a high level of current
assets in relation to sales. If a firm adopts a moderate current assets policy it would carry moderate
level of current assets in relation to sales, finally is a firm follows a highly aggressive current assets
policy, it would carry a low level of current assets in relation to sales

CHAPTER 2] RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
The term research refers to systematic method consisting of enunciating the problem,
formulating a hypothesis collecting the data, analysing the facts and reaching the certain
conclusions either in the form of solution towards the concern problem or in certain
generalization for some theoretical formulation.
Research Methodology is a way to solve systematically the research problem. It may be
understood as a science of studying how research is done scientifically.
Descriptive Research is also known as Statistical Research, describes data and characteristics
about the population or phenomenon being studied. Descriptive research answers the
Questions who, what, when and how.
Although the data description is factual, accurate and systematic, the research cannot
describe what caused a situation. Thus, Descriptive research cannot be used to create a
causal relationship, where one variable affects another. In other words, descriptive research
can be saidto have a low requirement for internal validity.
In short descriptive research deals with everything that can be counted and studied. But
thereare always restrictions to that. Your research must have an impact to the lives of the
people around you. For example, finding the most frequent disease that affects the children
of a town. The reader of the research will know what to do to prevent that disease thus, more
people will live a healthy life.

3.2] SECONDARY DATA-
The process of analysis of working capital is a three step process. This process is included the
followings:-
1. Step – 1:-
• The first step of analyzing of working capital begins by determining current assets.
• Current assets are comprised of cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable and current
inventory.
• The sum of the total value of each of the above is called the current assets
2. Step-2:-
• Current liabilities include accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable and the
portion of long-term debt that is classified as current.
• The sum of all of these above mention accounts are called current liabilities figure.
3. Step-3:-
• Take the total of the current assets and subtract them from the current assets.
• In other words, current asset minus current liabilities equals to working capital.
Example:-
• The company has $100,000 in cash, $50,000 in securities, $10,000 in account receivable, and
$30,000 ininventory.
• On the current liabilities side, the company has $60,000 in accounts payable, $10,000
in accruedexpenses, and $20,000 in current debt.
• The current assets of the company are:-$100, 000 + $50,000 + $10,000 + $30,000 = $190,000.
• Now take the current assets of $190,000 and subtract the current liabilities of $90,000 to
arrive at theworking capital of $100,000.
• $190,000 - $90,000 = $100,000.
40
Current Assets: -
Current Asset is a balance sheet item which equals the sum of cash and cash equivalents
, accounts receivable, inventory, marketable securities, prepaid expenses, and other assets that could be
converted to cash in less than one year. A company’s creditors will often be interested in how much that
company has incurrent assets, since these assets can be easily liquidated in case the company goes bankrupt.
In addition, assets are important to most companies as a source of funds for day-to-day operations. In
accounting, a current asset is an asset on the balance sheet which is expected to be sold or otherwise used up
in the near future, usually within one year, or one operating cycle whichever is longer. Typical current assets
include cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventory, the portion of prepaid accounts which will
be used within a year, and short-term investments.
Current Assets = Cash +Bank + Debtors + Bills Receivable + Short Term Investment + Inventory
+PrepaidExpenses
Below is the list of Assets of SBI:-From the Balance Sheet (assests)
Of SBI (31st March 2017 – 31st March 2021)
So,
The Current Assets of SBI in the year 2021 as per the Balance Sheet (31March 2021)
Current Assets = Cash and cash equivalents + Loans and advances to banks + Loans and
advances tocustomers + Investment securities
= 213201.54+129837.17+1351705.21+2449497.79+38419.24+351768.68= 4534429.63
41
Current Liabilities: -
In accounting, current liabilities are considered liabilities of the business that are to be settled in cash
within thefiscal year or the operating cycle, which ever period is longer.
For example,
Accounts payable for goods, services or supplies that were purchased for use in the operation of the
business and payable within a normal period of time would be current liabilities.
Bonds, mortgages and loans that are payable over a term exceeding one year would be fixed liabilities
or long-term liabilities. However, the payments due on the long-term loans in the current fiscal year
could be consideredcurrent liabilities if the amounts were material.
Below there is the list of Liabilities of SBI:- From the Balance Sheet (liabilities) Of SBI (31 March 2021)
So,
The Current Liabilities of SBI in the year 2021 as per the Balance Sheet (31March 2021)
Current Liabilities = Deposit from Customers + Other borrowed fund Subordinated liabilities
+Current tax liabilities = 3681277.08+417297.70+181979.66=4280554.44

Reserve Bank of India is the largest shareholder in the bank with 59.7%stake followed by overseas investors
including GDRs with 19.78% stake as on September 06. Indian financial institutions held 12.3% while
Indian public held just 8.2% of the stock. RBI is the monetary authority and having majority shareholding
reflects conflict of interest. Now the government is rectifying the above error by transferring RBIs holding
to itself. Postthis; SBI will have further headroom to dilute the GOIs stake from 59.7% to 51.0%, which will
further improve its CAR and Tier I ratio.
Debtors Turnover
The Debtors Conversion Period (DCP) is equals to the Days In Year Company Operating is divide to
the Debtors Turnover.
Creditors Turnover

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 decisions. It only means of better
understanding of financial strengths and weaknesses of a firm. The main emphasis has been on
calculating the ratios related to a working capital management.
LIQUIDITY RATIOS
These are the ratios which measures the short term solvency or financial position of a firm. In other
words, it refers to the ability of a concern to meet its current obligations as and when these become due.
To measure the liquidity of a firm, the following ratios can be calculated.
CURRENT RATIO
It may be defined as the relationship between current assets and current liabilities. This ratio is also
known as working capital ratio and measures the ability of the firm to meet current liabilities. High
current ratio indicates firm is liquid and has the ability to pay its current obligations in time as and when
they become due. A ratio equal or near to the rule of thumb of 2:1 i.e. current assets double the current
liabilities is considered to be satisfactory.
49
2017 CURRENT RATIO = CURRENT ASSET / CURRENT LIABILITIES
ANALYSIS: - = 2509039.66 / 2517680.24
CURRENT RATIO = 1:1 [approximate]
QUICK RATIO
This ratio is also known as quick ratio or acid test ratio. It is a more rigorous test of liquidity than the
current ratio. It is based on those current assets which are highly liquid. Inventory and prepaid expenses
are excluded because they are deemed to be least liquid component of current assets. A high quick ratio
is the indication that the firm is liquid and has the ability to meet its current liabilities in time and on
the other hand low ratio represents liquidity position is not good.

CHAPTER 4] FINDINGS AND SUGGESTIONS
4.1] FINDINGS
The research is conducted with the data of past five years. And from this past five years data the things that
I have finds after the research done are: -
1) Working capital of the company was in negative which shows that liabilities are more than assets.
2) In the year 2017-2018 the (SBI) company’s % increase in CA was 27.05%.
3) In the year 2018-2019 the company`s % increase in CA dropped to 5.89% due to COVID-19.
4) From the year 2020 the company’s %increase in CA is now in growing, which good.
5) In the year 2018-19 the company’s %increase in CL was less then 2017-2018 which is good.
6) In the year 2018-2019 the company’s %increase in NWC was less than 2017-2018.
7) Current ratio from 2017-2021 is in increasing state which states that in future the company will be
having it current assets more than current labilities which is good.
4.2] SUGGESTIONS
The research is conducted with the data of past five years
1. The bank should low down to give money on call and short notice
2. Because the company has its NWC in negative, so instead of fulfilling others demand bank should
lookout to fulfill its daily needs.
3. The Net Working Capital should be in a balance condition it should not be fluctuate excessively.
4. All over company should manage the NWC of the company in such a way that it should enhance
the effectiveness and efficiency of the company`s profitability
51
4.3] RECOMMENDATION
Recommendation can be use by SBI for the betterment increased of the firm, after study and analysis of
project report on study of working capital management. I would like to recommend.
1. Company should raise funds through short term sources for short term requirement of funds, which
comparatively economical as compare to long term funds.
2. Company should take control on debtor’s collection period which is major part of current assets.
3. Company has to take control on cash balance because cash is non-earning assets and increasing cost of
funds.
4. Over all the company has good liquidity position and sufficient funds to repayment of liabilities, but
Company has accepted conservative financial policy to maintaining more current assets balance.
4.4] CONCLUSION
Working capital management is important aspect of financial management. The study of working
capitalmanagement of State Bank of India has revealed that the current ratio is in an increasing trend.
The study has been conducted on working capital management which will help the company to manage
its working capital efficiently and effectively. Over all the company has not good liquidity position and
not sufficient funds to repayment of liabilities. Company has accepted conservative financial policy
and thus maintaining more current assets balance. Company is increasing sales volume per year which
supported to the company for sustain in the number one position in India.
