1.2 History of the Company

The origins of the business go back to 1920 when Mr.Amichand

Shah installed the first Hattersley looms in Surat. Since 1920 the
company expanded not only by increasing the production capacity and
workforce of the business but also by pioneering new material and
processes.
The present Chairman and Managing Director of Garden Silk
Mills Ltd., Mr.Praful Shah is the youngest son of Mr. Amichand Shah.
Mr.Praful Shah taken qualification in USA in 1965 after which he joined
the company, up to that date Garden Silk Mills Ltd. had activities of the
Company to include processing cloth by introducing dying, printing and
finishing processes. As a result of this, the company was able to supply
finished textiles for the first time.

In the 1970s, the company recruited fine arts graduates from

leading institutions. An art studio was set up. The company started
introducing its own design and supplying these designs to the market.
Prior to this, the designs produced had been a function of customer
demand and from this manufacturer. This was the first step in building a
vertically integrated synthetic textile manufacturer and designer.

This move in the early 1970s coincided with the opening of

the first retail shop in Surat. The extension of the policy of vertical
integration into the retailing sector had advantages of uniform pricing,
close market monitoring, improving communication between
manufacturer and consumer, and above all exerting downward pressure
on the final selling price. The dedicated retail network now extends to
some 293 authorized outlets.

2
 In the late 1970s, the company started exporting its product
to European Markets, Given the size of the domestic market; the
proportion of products that are exported remains low at approximately
two percent. The company is in the process of further developing markets
in Africa, Central and Eastern Asia.

In 1980, the company developed a new site, Vareli, some 12

kilometers away from Surat. This has become the main manufacturing
plant and investment of more than Rs.2.0 billion has been made. Most of
this expenditure has been targeted at the expansion and modernization of
plant and equipment, particularly in the weaving and yarn preparatory
sections. As a result, the Company today has one of the most modern and
sophisticated textile plants in India.

In 1995 the company had decided to further its policy of

vertical integration by setting up a new plant, also near Surat, from
which, manufacturing of polyester filament yarn, one of its principal raw-
materials, from polyester chips, is going on. This plant had become on
stream at a cost of approximately 655 million rupees.

1.3 Activities of the Company

The company is primarily engaged in the manufacture of
synthetic textile, sarees and dress materials mainly made of polyester
yarns and certain intermediate products. Garden Silk Mills Ltd. has been,
and continues to be, the initiator of the majority of new textile varieties
woven and processed in Surat, is at present, the consumer of
approximately 50 percent of polyester yarn in India. The company

3
believes that designs are a key factor in its market and used to produce
some 200 different printed designs each month.

The company’s lead in different and improved fabric

construction and the emphasis it places on design together with its
modern and efficient plant is key to its future success. The company
operates in a highly fragmented market where no individual manufacturer
has a material market share. It is also the leading integrated textile
manufacturer house, which undertakes all processes from yarn
manufacture to the retailing of dress materials and sarees.

The company, and its wholly owned subsidiary, Garden

Finance are also engaged in providing to the Indian corporate sector trade
and asset finance including the discounting of Bills of exchange.

The company also has a small engineering division, which

assembles a limited range of textile manufacturing machines.

1.4 Achievements of the Company

The company was first to setup a polyester filaments yarn

project in South Gujarat. The project is capable of producing multi-
filament & micro-filament yarn having a capacity of 5,000 Tones per
annum in collaboration with NON-VAL LEASINA AG of Switzerland.
This project has a special significance for the company, as polyester
filament yarn is the basic raw material for the product manufactured by
the company. The company was also first in producing of two-for-one
Twister in India.

4
 The company's production facilities boast of one of India's
most sophisticated textile plants at Vareli, Surat (Western India). Its
weaving plant comprising Nissan and Tsudakoma water jet looms - the
highest number of water jet looms under one roof in India - and rapier
looms, automatic shuttle change looms etc, high-tech yarn preparatory
machines viz, ziro-twist-sizing, draw-warping, texturising and twisting
machines, have a capacity of over 42 Lac meters/month of greige fabric.
The plant has an ISO 9002 certification by BVQI. The company also
markets high quality dyed and printed fabrics that it gets manufactured
from associated firms.

8
2.1 INTRODUCTION OF RATIO ANALYSIS: -

The relationship of these two figure expressed mathematically is

called a ratio. The ratio reefers to the numerical or quantities relationship
between two variables or times. A ratio is calculated by dividing one item
of the relationship with the other. The ratio analysis is one of the most
useful and common methods of analyzing financial statement. Ratio
enables the mass of data to be summarized and simplified. Ratio analysis
is an instrument for diagnosis of the financial health of an enterprise.

2.2 MEANING OF RATIO:-

A ratio is only a comparison of the numerator with the

denominator. The tern ratio reefers to the numerical or quantitative
relationship between two figures and obtained by dividing the former by
the latter.
Ratio analysis is an important and age old technique of financial
analysis. The data given in financial statements ratio are relative form of
financial data and very useful techniques to cheek upon the efficiency of
a firm. Some ratio indicates the trend or progress or downfall of the firm.

2.3 Importance of ratio:

Ratio analysis of firm’s financial statement is of interest to a

number of parties mainly. Shareholders, creditor, financial executives etc.
shareholders are interested with earning capacity of the firm: creditors are
interested in knowing the ability of firm to meet financial obligation and
financial executives are concerned with evolving analytical tools that will
measures and compare costs, efficiency liquidity and profitability with a
view to making intelligent decisions.

9
 • Aid to measure general efficiency: Ratios enable the
mass of accounting data to be summarized and simplified
• Aid to measure financial solvency: They point out
firm’s liquidity position to meet its short-tern obligation and
long-tern solvency.
• Aid in forecasting and planning: ratio help to prepare
the future plan of action etc.
• Facilitate decision-making: it throws light on the
degree of efficiency of the management and utilization of the
assets that is why it is called surveyor of efficiency.
• Aid in corrective action: the highlight the factors
associated with successful and unsuccessful firms.
• Aids in intrude firm comparison: inter firm
comparison are facilities. It is an instrument for diagnosis of
financial health of enterprise.
• Evaluation of efficiency: ratio analysis is an effective
instrument which, when properly used is useful to assess
important characteristics of business liquidity, solvency,
profitability etc.
• Effective tool: ratio analysis helps in making effective
control of the business measuring performance; control of cost
etc. ratio ensures secrecy.

2.4 Limitation of ratio analysis

10
 Ratio analysis is as already mentioned, a widely used tool of
financial analysis. It is because ratios are simple and easy to understand.
But they must be used very carefully. They suffer from various
limitations.

Some of the limitations of ratio analysis are given below:

• Difference in definition: comparisons are made
difficult due to difference in definitions of various financial
terms.
• Limitations of according records ratio: Ratio analysis
is based on financial statement, which are themselves subject to
limitations.
• Lack of proper standards: it is very difficult to
ascertain the standard ratio in order to make proper comparison.
Because it differs from firm to firm, industry to industry.
• Changes in accounting procedure: it different firms
for their valuation follow methods then comparison will
practically be of no use.
• Limited use of single ratio: a single ratio would not be
able to convey anything. It too many ratio are calculated they
are likely to confuse instead of revealing meaningful
conclusions
• Personal bias: Ratios have to be interpreted and different

people may interpret the same ratio in efferent ways. The

analyst has to carry further investigation and exercise. His
judgment in arriving at a correct diagnosis.

11
2.5 Types of Ratio

 LIQUIDITY RATIO:

Liquidity and short term solvency ratios are used to judge the
firm’s ability to meet such current obligations as its accounts payable and
the current position of its long term debt. Liquidity is defined as the
ability to realize value in money, the most liquid of assets. It refers to the
ability to pay in cash, the obligations that are due. The important ratios in
measuring about short term solvency are as under.

 Current Ratio:
Current Ratio: Current Assets, Loans and Advances
Current Liabilities & provisions

The current ratio is the traditional ratio used to measure a

company’s liquidity & is calculated by dividing the total current assets by
the total current liabilities. This ratio is designed to assist the decision
maker in determining a firm’s ability to pay its current Liabilities. The
higher the ratio, the greater the ability or the company to meet its
immediate financial obligations. A current ratio of 2:1 indicates a highly
solved position.

 Quick Ratio or Liquid Ratio:

Quick Ratio = Current assets, Loans & advances – Inventories
Current Liabilities & provision – Bank overdraft
Quick ratio is used as a measure of the company’s ability to meet
its current obligations. Since Bank O.D. is secured by the inventories, the
other current assets must be sufficient to meet other current liabilities. A

12
quick ratio of 1:1 indicates highly solved position. This ratio is also called
acid test ratio.

 PROFITABILITY RATIO:
The purpose of study & analysis of profitability ratios are to help
assessing the adequacy of profits earned by the company & also to
discover whether, profitability is increasing or declining. The profitability
of the firm is the net result of a large number of policies and decisions.
The firm profitability ratios are as under:

 Gross Profit Margin:

GPM = Sales – cost of goods sold x 100
Sales
The ratio measures the GPN on the total net sales made by the
company. The GP represents the excess of sales proceeds during the
period under observation over their cost, before taking into account
administration, selling & distribution & financing charges. The ratio
measures the efficiency of the company’s operation & this can also be
compare with the previous year’s results to ascertain the efficiency
pastiness with respect to the previous years.

 Net Profit Margin:

NPM = Net profit before Interest & Tax x 100
Sales
The ratio is designed to focus attention on the NP margin arising
from business operations before interest & tax is deducted. The
convention is to express profit after tax & interest as a percentage of
sales. This ratio measures the efficiency of operation of the company. The
ratio could be compared with that of the previous years & with that of

13
competitions to determine the trend in NP margins of the co & its
performance in the industry.

 Return on Capital Employed:

ROCE = Net Profit x 100
Capital Employed

The strategic aim of a business enterprise is to earn a return on

capital. Ti in any particular case the return in the long run is no
satisfactory then the deficiency should be corrected on the activity be
abandoned for a more favorable one. Measuring the historical
performance of an investment centre calls for a comparison of the profit
that has been earned with capital employed. The rate of return on
investment is determined by dividing NP or income by the capital
employed on investment made to achieve that profit.

 Earnings per Share (EPS):

EPS = Net profit after tax & preference dividend
No. of equity shares
The performance of a corporation is better judged in terms of its
earnings per share. The EPS is one of the importance measures of
economic performance of a corporation entity. The flow of capital to the
companies under the present imperfect capital market conditions would
be made on the evaluation of EPS. Investors lacking inside & detailed
information would look upon the EPS as the best base to take their
investment decisions. A higher EPS means better capital productivity.

14
 Return on Shareholders fund or Return on Net Worth:
Return on Net worth = NP after Interest & Tax x 100
Net Worth
Where, Net worth = Equity + Reserves & surplus
This ratio expresses the NP in terms of the equity shareholders
funds. This ratio is an important yardstick of performance for equity
shareholders since it indicates the return on the funds employed by them.
This ratio is useful in measuring the rate of return as a percentage of the
book value of shareholders equity.

 LONG TERM SOLVENCY RATIOS

The long term financial stability of the firm may be considered as

dependent upon its ability to meet all its liabilities, including those not
currently payable. The ratios which are important in measuring the long
term solvency is as follows:

 Debt Equity Ratio:

Debt Ratio = Long term debt
Shareholders Funds

This ratio indicates the relationship between loan funds and net
worth of the company. This is known as gearing. It the proportion of debt
to equity is low, a company is said to be low and vice versa. A debt
equity ratio of 2:1 is the boom accepted by financial institutions for
financing of projects. A debt equity ratio which shows a declining trend
over the years is usually taken as a positive sign reflecting on increasing
cash accrual and debt repayment.

15
  Proprietary Ratio:
It expresses the relationship between net worth & total asset.
PR = Net worth
Total Assets
Net worth = Equity share capital + preference share capital +
Reserve – Fictitious Assets
Total Assets = Fixed Asset + Current Assets
Reserves earmarked specifically for a particular purpose should not
be included in calculation of Net worth. A high proprietary ratio is
indicative of strong financial position of the business. The higher the
ratio, the better it is.

 Interest Cover:
Interest Cover = Profit before Interest, depreciation & Tax
Interest
The interest coverage ratio shows how many times interest charges
are covered by funds that are available for payment of interest. AN
interest cover of 2:1 considered reasonable by financial institutions. A
very high ratio indicates that the firm is conservative in using debt and a
very low ratio indicates excessive use of debt.

 TURNOVER RATIO:

An activity ratio measures how effectively the firm employs its

resources. These ratios are also called turn over ratios which involve
comparison between the level of sales and investment in various
accounts. Activity ratios are used to measure the speed with which
various accounts are converted into sales or cash.

16
  Fixed Assets Turnover Ratio:
F. A. T. Ratio = sales
Fixed Assets

This ratio will be analyzed further with ratios for each main
category of asset. This is a difficult set of ratios to interpret as asset
values are based on historic cost. An increase in the fixed assets figure
may result from the replacement of an asset at an increased price on the
purchase of an additional asset intended to increase production capacity.

a complementary ratio to the current ratio. The ratio is concerned with the
establishment of relaionship between the liquid assets and the liquid
liabilities. The ideal ratio is 1:1
