Key raw materials being used are Herbs, Jari booti and Raw Madhu that signifies the fact that most of the Dabur products are naturally made and are good for skin and health. Chemicals and perfumeries also form a vital part of the raw materials. The consumption of raw material has increased over the past four years signifying the increased sales and hence the increased profits of the products and the company.
Sales Mix
Segment Hair Oils Tooth Powders & Paste Chywanprash Honey. Hajmola. Fruits/Nector/Drinks Asava-Arishta Vegetable Pastes Important Inferences: All the segments have been showing constant growth over the past 4 years. The main highlight has been the Tooth Powder and paste segment which has shown a growth of 422% in the past 4 years. This has been the mainstay of the Overall sales. Major Contributor to Dabur sales has been Hair Oils. Real Juice and vegetable pastes- These have been the newest ventures wherein the company has invested and the segment has been doing well since its formation. 2009 504.84 329.7 194.3 116.88 90.51 76.13 56.4 6 2008 375.7 300.73 179.47 106.61 71.49 66.34 48.97 5.15 2007 306.76 195.75 171.91 85.56 78.08 Nil 46.95 Nil 2006 268.1 63.19 150.07 78.14 72.65 Nil 53.16 Nil

Most of the consumption of Dabur is in-house, that is Domestic and only around 4.3% of the produce is exported. The average growth rate over the four years is more for exports (41%) as compared to domestic (20%). So the company is steadily increasing its exports but there is still a long way to go before Dabur can make a name for itself in the international market. The domestic growth rate of sales has reduced from 29% in FY2006 to 14% in FY2008. This may be due to the tough competition in the domestic market and the economic downturn.

The net worth of Dabur is increasing at a faster rate as compared to the net profit and therefore the decline in the past few years. That is, the company is giving lesser returns with the increase in capital investment by the owners of the company.

The figures may be misleading. It shows a downward trend over the years. That is because the company is investing more in the long term assets rather than going for short term investment. It can be said that the results will reflect the same in the next few yearTrend Analysis

Thus it can be said that the co. carries surplus cash in business which it utilizes in investing. The co. believes in investments. The co has also invested almost 87 crores in its subsidiaries. Finally the main reason for the 62% increase in its investments from last year is the advance paid against the equity shares of Fem Care Pharma Ltd which Dabur has proposed to acquire. It totals to almost 205 cores. Thus the company has taken a significant step towards expanding its business by taking the decision to acquire to FEM.

KHALID H. SAIYAD
Share premium Account: Has come down significantly in 07 from 06 because of utilization in merger. In 08 and 09 the account has increased slightly because of premium on issue of shares. General Reserve: Large amount has been utilized for merger and also for the issuance of bonus shares. So it has come down in 07 and has been rising thereafter because there has not been anymore issue of bonus shares or merger. It is also seen that the company has steadily increased the transfer from P/L acc to general reserve throughout the years. Profit and loss acc: The transfer of the remaining profits from the P/L account has risen steadily over the years. This indicates that the profit of the company has been rising over the years.
Secured Loans
Secured loans of Dabur have come down from 16.44 crores to 8.25 crores. The company has taken term loans and short term loans from banks. The company has repaid almost half of the loans in the year, thus the figure for secured loans has come down.

However this year the co has taken some unsecured loans which we will analyze in the next heading
Unsecured Loans
The companys unsecured loans have risen from less than 1 crores to 130.7 crores. The co has taken short term loan from bank to the tune of 110 crores and that the company

has taken almost negligible unsecured loans. The company might be looking to fund some project so it has taken an unsecured loan this time.
Overall Comment
If we look at the balance sheet we will find that the company is not highly leveraged. It depends more on internal sources of funds than external sources. The reserves and surplus of the co has become very high as compared to share cap, thus there is a possibility of bonus shares.

Expenditure
The cost of materials has risen from 102,833.54 lacs to 122,243.11 lacs . The cost of materials includes Raw Materials Consumed, Packing Materials Consumed, purchase of Finished Products and Adjustment of Stocks in process and Finished Goods. The Raw Materials Consumed contributes to almost 45 % to the cost of materials. The packaging materials also constitute a significant portion which shows that FMCG companies spend more on packaging than other sector companies. There has been a good growth rate in the purchases of raw materials and packaging materials.

Solvency Ratios
We have analyzed the following solvency ratios Proprietary Ratio Debt Equity Ratio or External-Internal Equity Ratio Long-Term Debt Equity Ratio or Gearing Ratio Interest Coverage Ratio
Proprietary Ratio
This ratio relates the share holders fund to total assets. The formula for calculating the proprietary ratio is given by: Proprietary Ratio = Shareholders Funds Total Assets
KHALID H. SAIYAD
The higher the proprietary ratio, the better is the long term solvency of the company and the more satisfied the creditors will be. Here, we see that the proprietary ratio of Dabur India limited has been showing a decreasing trend over the years.

This ratio is very small which shows that in future, the company can do a high leveraging. It presently relies mostly on owners funds and very less on the loans. As such, financial institutions and lenders will be ready to give loans to the company. The ratio has been increasing over the years showing that Dabur India Limited has now started taking loans both secured and unsecured, but the proportion of these loans is very less as compared to its proprietors funds.
Long term
This ratio tells whether the company is relying more on its debts or on its capital in order to finance its operations. We see that this ratio is declining over the years and is very less. This shows that the company as a policy, doesnot goes for loans and is a very cash rich company. It also has high reserves and surplus. When we see the trend over the past few years, we see
KHALID H. SAIYAD
that the company has now started taking loans but Is still dependent on capital only. Thus, the company can raise huge sums as loans in the future.Interest Coverage Ratio
This ratio measures the capacity of a company to py the interest liability it has incurred on its long term borrowings, out of its cash profits. The formula for calculating the interest coverage ratio is given by: Interest Coverage Ratio = PAT + Interest on Long Term Debt + Depreciation Interest on Long Term Debt
Interest Coverage Ratio Year Interest On Long Term Debt PAT + Interest on Long Term Debt + Depreciation Interest Coverage Ratio 2005-2006 565.87 21379.29 37.78127485 2006-2007 443.01 27848.44 62.86188 2007-2008 845.5 35097.97 41.5115 2008-2009 1333.55 41430.86 31.0681
This ratio measures the capacity of a company to pay off its interest liability in long term debts out of its profits. As we see from the above, this ratio, although decreasing over the years, is quite high. Thus, we can say that Dabur India limited is making sufficient operating profits in order to be able to cover its interest costs.
KHALID H. SAIYAD
Proprietary Ratio Debt-Equity Ratio Long-Term Debt-Equity Ratio Interest Coverage Ratio
From all these ratios, we see that Dabur India Limited mainly depends upon its proprietary funds. It has very small amount of debts, both long term and short term, as compared to its capital. As such, the company is highly solvent and can do a very good leveraging in future.
Liquidity Ratios
We have analyzed the following Liquidity ratios Current Ratio Liquid/Quick Ratio Net Working Capital Operating cash Flow Ratios
Current Ratios
A Current ratio measures the ability of a company to discharge its dayto-day bills, or current liabilities as and when they fall due, out of the cash or near cash, or current assets that it possesses. It is an important indicator of a companys current and prospective liquidity position. Formula for calculation of current ratio is given by: Current Ratio = Current Assets Current Liabilities
2008-
2007-
2006-
2005-
DABUR INDIA LTD. 2009 Current Assets, loans and advances 74,504.46 Current Liabilities and
Provisions 66,648.91 58,263.48 35,608.47 30,731.00 Current Ratio 1.12 0.95 1.11 0.93 Generally, a low current ratio indicates the potential for a strained liquidity position. However FMCG companies normally do not have a high current ratio because of the ready and fast conversion of ready and fast conversion of inventory into cash. Therefore the Current Ratio of Dabur is less than normal. Another reason for the low ratios is that the company is very conservative and has high provisions (almost 50% of the liabilities) hence increasing the liabilities and decreasing the ratio. The company has also invested in long term ventures and mutual funds rather than going for short term investments. Infact, over the past 10 years, it has invested in 27 different mutual funds.
Liquid Ratio
It measures as to how quick is the ability of a company to discharge its current liabilities net of working limits, as and when they fall due,out of cash or current assets net of inventories that it possesses. Formula for calculation of liquid ratio is given by: Liquid Ratio = Current Assets Inventories Prepaid Expenses Current Liabilities
2009
2008
2007
2006
Inventory in case of Dabur forms a significant part of current Assets, hence quick ratio is low. A low liquid ratio indicates the potential for a strained liquidity position. However, a low liquid ratio does not necessarily mean a bad liquidity position as inventories are not absolutely non-liquid.
Net Working Capital Year Current Assets, loans and advances Current Liabilities and Provisions
Net working capital has been up and down in the past 4 years. This is because of the varied bank balance of the company. However, the low net working capital is also because of the high provisions the company has created.

2009 2008 2007 32,357.3 31,329.0 23,442.7 1 1 5 66,648.9 58,263.4 35,608.4 1 0.49 8 0.54 7 0.66
We can again see a downward trend again due to the perishable inventory and high provisions
A major parameter for all the liquidity ratios is the Liabilities that the company has. We can see above that all the ratios are coming out to be less than normal. This is because the company has high provisions hence increasing the total liability for the company.
KHALID H. SAIYAD
Also the Liquid ratios above are extremely low when compared to the Current ratios. This is because the inventory forms a significant part of the current assets and we know that the inventories are not as liquid. Low net-working capital follows the low current ratios. Also, the low operating cash flow ratios doesnt mean that there isnt enough cash flowing through operations. It is because of the high value of the denominator i.e. Liabilities. These unusually low ratios are not just confined to Dabur. This is a general trend all across the FMCG sector.
TURNOVER RATIOS
Financial ratios related to sales or volume, i.e, those ratios which signifies the resources efficiency comes under Turnover Ratios. For example, accounts receivable turnover, also known as efficiency ratios and assets turnover, conversion of receivables into cash comes under this category. These measure efficiency of converting assets into cash. The efficiency with which the assets and resources of a company are utilized in generating operational revenue has a direct bearing on the top line. It is therefore important for analysts to study the turnover ratios. Five major ratios under this category are: Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio Net worth Turnover Ratio Inventory Turnover Ratio Debtors Turnover Ratio Creditors Turnover Ratio

Ratio 6.65 7.08 6.70 6.75 The ratio has come down marginally from the last year due to a larger increase in the net block of fixed assets compared to the increase in the net sales. This indicates that the company is not utilizing its fixed assets well. This is an area of concern for the company as the growth is not very significant.

There is a decrease in net asset turnover ratio this year compared to last year which shows that the company has not been able to utilize all its net worth appropriately. This is again an area of concern for the company as overall profitability can be increased by utilizing net worth properly.

Though there was a considerable increase in the Collection period allowed to the customers for the past years, the trend changed in the present year and collection period has decreased from 17.31 days last year to 16.92 days. Still the ratio is low which suggests that the company has managed its debtors well. SHREE SAHAJANAND INSTITUT OF MANAGEMENT 43

Suppliers credit days has increased from 112.60 days last year to 104.91 days this year. The collection period is less as compared to the credit period enjoyed by the company which is in favor of the company. This means that the company has managed its debtors well and the suppliers are having a high degree of faith in it, it also enjoys a good reputation with the creditors.
Moreover, taking a general trend, collection period is on an increase except for the present year whereas credit period has decreased as compared to the last year. But since there is a larger difference between both the periods, the company will only have to take care of it in the long-run.

The RONW has worsened from last year. The reason is because of the worsened Net worth Turnover. Reserves and Surplus have gone up substantially but the profit has not grown with the same proportion. Thus the company has to focus more on improving the Resource Efficiency than the operating margin. With Reference To Return on Total Assets

The ROTA has worsened from last year. The reason is because of the worsened Total Assets Turnover. Total Assets have gone up substantially but the profit has not grown with the same proportion. Thus the company has to focus more on improving the Efficiency of assets than the operating margin. They have made a major investment in assets that are yet to generate sales. Thus in the coming years ROTA is expected to increase.

Dabur India Limited has used indirect method for working out the cash flow from operating activities. The statement starts with Net profit before tax and extraordinary items which has been adjusted for non-cash charges and interest received to arrive at Operating profit before working capital changes.

Market Capitalization
Market capitalization is an important indicator because it may happen that the share price of a company is low compared to its peers. However it might so happen that the company has issued a very large number of equity shares compared to the other company. Thus market capitalization gives us an idea of the size of the company which is decided by the public trust and investments in the company. The share price of Dabur is around 140 while the share price of colgate is around 600. But the no of shares issued of Dabur is 8650.76 lacs and the no of shares issued of colgate is 1360 lacs, thus we see that there is a huge difference in the no of shares issued by both the company. SHREE SAHAJANAND INSTITUT OF MANAGEMENT 61
comparison of the companies rather than only share price. HUL has issued around 21800 lacs equity shares and its share price is around 280, thus it has a very high market capitalization. It comes in large caps companies while Dabur is comparatively a smaller company.
Yield to Investors
Following is the formula used to calculate the yield to investors: Yield to investors = Divident Per Share + Market Appreciation Initial Investment Yield to investors Year Divident Per Share Market Appreciation Yield to Investors
Thus we see that there has been a negative yield to investors. The main reason is because of the crash in the stock markets due to the global recession. Daburs share has fallen almost by 9%. . During the same period the sensex has fallen from 15626 points to 9708 points which means it has fallen almost 38%. Therefore we can conclude that the Dabur Share has shown strong resilience even when the markets were not performing well.

Chapter 13 Brief Write-Up on the Sector and Future prospects of the Company
The Indian FMCG sector is the fourth largest sector in the economy with a total market size in excess of US$ 13.1 billion. It has a strong MNC presence and is characterized by a well established distribution network, intense competition between the organized and unorganized segments and low operational cost. Availability of key raw materials, cheaper labor costs and presence across the entire value chain gives India a competitive advantage. There is a huge growth opportunities for companies like Dabur, HUL. Indian rural markets present huge opportunities. The rising rural and semi-urban income levels coupled with massive advertisement of FMCG products in the electronic media will spread so much of awakening in the rural and semi-urban folks towards fast moving consumer goods products so much that these will enlarge their affordability for them. However, apart from all the opportunities there are various risk involved in the sector. Dabur must foresee all the risks and plan its operations accordingly. The rural and semi-urban demand of FMCG products will grow larger and higher, it will put a severe pressure on
KHALID H. SAIYAD
the margins of manufacturers of FMCG products because of cut-throat competition. One of the risks faced by companies in FMCG is continued economic slowdown and worsening of macro economic indicators which can impact the spending power of consumers and put pressure on their incomes and consumption. A poor monsoon if it happens can impact rural incomes and dampen rural consumption and spends. Increase of imitation/fake product can hamper Daburs growth. Any unexpected change in regulatory framework which may impact parts of the business of Dabur is also one of the risks faced by the company. In view of the Swot analysis done we conclude that Dabur has managed its operations very efficiently and has shown high growth rate despite of being faced an economic slow down situation. The companys new products have shown immense potential to do well in the market while the Daburs management is also committed to pursue higher growth rates in future. The company has maintained a Risk register which is reviewed periodically by senior management. Thus the risks can be minimized if action is taken immediately. The companies segments like consumer care division, health division, and international division are also showing good signs of growth. The company is also marketing its products in the rural sector which gives the company an added advantage. However the company needs to shell out more dividends or issue bonus shares to make the share more attractive for investors. This along with the improving Indian consumer market also presents immense opportunities to Dabur to increase its operations and compete wit HuL and try to bridge the gap between them.
