A STUDY ON FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE OF TATA MOTORS
The purpose of this study is to analyze the financial performance of Tata Motors over a six-year period, from 2015 to 2020, using
data from their balance sheets and profit and loss accounts. By conducting financial analysis, companies can identify their strengths
and weaknesses, and improve their performance. This study utilized secondary data collected from Tata Motors' annual reports. The
findings suggest that the company's profitability position is not optimal, and it needs to decrease its production costs, maintain lower
costs, increase sales prices, and improve efficiency in converting sales into actual profit. The study emphasizes the importance of
improving financial performance and provides suggestions for achieving this goal.

Financial Statement Analysis of Tata Motors Ltd
The aim of this study is to conduct a financial statement analysis of TATA Motors Ltd for the period of 2016-2017 and evaluate the
company's financial position. Despite facing some challenges, Tata Motors has managed to maintain its influence in the industry,
and its strong reputation as a large company is expected to help it rebound. The study indicates that Tata Motors' ability to make
contractual payments has been adversely affected, and 2016-2017 was the strongest financial year of the four years analyzed. During
that period, the company had the highest current and quick ratios, but these have since declined, indicating a decrease in liquidity
over time. However, it is believed that effective asset management and sufficient financing for debts will aid the company in
recovering from losses.

DATA ANALYSIS AND INTERPETATION


LIQUIDITY RATIOS
Liquidity ratios are an important set of financial ratios used to evaluate a company's ability to meet its short-term obligations. These
ratios measure a company's ability to convert its assets into cash quickly to pay off debts and meet other short-term financial
obligations.

CURRENT RATIO
The current ratio is a widely used financial ratio that measures a company's ability to pay its short-term liabilities with its short-
term assets. It is calculated by dividing a company's current assets by its current liabilities. A current ratio of 1 or higher generally
indicates that a company has enough current assets to cover its current liabilities. A ratio below 1 indicates that a company may
struggle to meet its short-term obligations.
Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities

Mar-13 74,006.73 86,285.90 0.858

INTERPRETATION
The above table shows current ratio of TATA Motors Ltd. For the past ten years its below ideal ratio (Ideal Current ratio is 2:1) But
the current ratio of the company is unsatisfied.
That means it is not able to meet even the current liabilities of the company.

INFERENCE
The current ratio was highest in the year 2014 it is 1.038 and its lowest was 0.849 in the year of 2019.

QUICK RATIO
The Quick ratio, also known as the Acid-Test ratio, is a financial ratio used to measure a company's ability to pay its short-term
liabilities with its most liquid assets. It is a more stringent measure of a company's liquidity than the current ratio, as it excludes
inventory and other current assets that may be difficult to convert to cash quickly.
Quick ratio = (Current assets - Inventory - Prepaid expenses) / Current liabilities

SOLVENCY RATIO
Solvency ratio is a financial metric that measures a company's ability to meet its longterm obligations and debts. It is calculated by
dividing a company's total assets by its total liabilities. A solvency ratio of greater than 1 indicates that a company has more assets
than liabilities, which suggests that it has the ability to repay its debts in the long run.

PROPRIETORY RATIO
The proprietary ratio, also known as the equity ratio or net worth ratio, is a financial ratio used to evaluate the proportion of a
company's assets that are financed through its shareholders' equity, as opposed to its debt. It is calculated by dividing the
shareholder's equity of a company by its total assets. The proprietary ratio measures the extent to which a company's assets are
financed through equity, which indicates the level of financial risk associated with the company. A higher proprietary ratio indicates
that a company relies more on equity financing, which is generally considered less risky than debt financing. On the other hand, a
lower proprietary ratio suggests that a company has a higher level of debt financing, which could increase the financial risk of the
company.
Proprietary Ratio = Shareholders' Equity / Total Assets

INTERPRETATION
The above table shows proprietary ratio of the TATA Motors Ltd. A ratio of 0.5:1 or above is considered as satisfactory. The
proprietary ratio has a constant increase and decrease up to 2018 but after that the ratio has declined for the last four years which is
a greater risk to the creditors. In the share holders’ point of view, the lower ratio indicates the company is highly dependent on
creditors for its working capital.

4.2.2 DEBT RATO


The debt ratio is a financial ratio that indicates the proportion of a company's total assets that are financed through debt. It
is calculated by dividing the company's total debt by its total assets. A high debt ratio indicates that a company is relying heavily on
debt to finance its operations and growth, which can increase its financial risk. A low debt ratio indicates that a company is relying
less on debt and may be less risky. Generally, a debt ratio of less than 0.5 is considered low, while a debt ratio of more than 0.5 is
considered high. However, the ideal debt ratio varies depending on the industry, the size of the company, and the company's financial
goals
Debt Ratio = Total Debt / Total Assets

PROFITABILITY RATIOS
Profitability ratios are key financial indicators that offer valuable insights into a company's capacity to generate profits through its
business operations. These ratios hold significant importance for investors, creditors, and other stakeholders who need to assess a
company's financial performance.

NET PROFIT RATIO


Net profit ratio, also known as net profit margin, is a financial ratio that measures the percentage of net profit earned in relation to
a company's total revenue. This ratio is a key indicator of a company's profitability and efficiency in managing its costs. Net profit
is the amount of revenue that remains after all expenses, including taxes and interest payments, have been deducted. Total revenue
includes all sales, as well as any other income generated by the company. A higher net profit ratio indicates that a company is able
to generate more profit from its revenue. This can be achieved by increasing revenue or reducing expenses. A lower net profit ratio
may indicate that a company is facing challenges in controlling its costs or that its pricing strategy is not competitive.
Net Profit Ratio = (Net Profit / Total Revenue) x 100

TREND ANALYSIS
The term “Trend Analysis” refers to one of the most useful analytical tools employed for financial analysis of statements. Trend
analysis is a valuable financial analytical tool that is used for evaluating financial statements. This type of analysis involves
comparing the changes in each line item across different time periods in order to gain meaningful insights. By measuring the
movement of line items in terms of amount or percentage change year over year, trend analysis helps to identify significant trends
and changes over time.
The analyst can effectively compare two or more companies over time with the aid of trend analysis. It may also be contrasted to

FINDINGS
 The current ratio is below the ideal ratio for the past ten year, it has an unstable growth in past ten years and it is not
satisfying.
 Quick ratio of the company is not satisfactory because it is lower than the standard ratio.
 The company has a low Proprietary ratio that indicates that it is more depend on debt financing which is a great risk to the
company.
 The debt ratio of the company is considerably high according to the ideal ratio this shows that the company is facing the
financial risk.
 Net profit ratio shows that the company facing loss for past four years.
 The operating profit ratio tells that the operating expenses in more than the profit but it never goes to negative in the past
ten years.

SUGGESTIONS
The company has to improve its short-term financial position by increasing its working capital. It has no sufficient funds to its short-
term liabilities and it has to work more to fulfil its short-term obligations. The company is facing loss for past four years this shows
that the company does not pay the dividend to its investors and this may create a bad impact on the investors. So, it is very important
to increase its sales revenue. The activity ratio shows that the company should improve in use its assets efficiently. And the solvency
ratio says that the company is more rely on its debt to finance and cannot meet their long-term obligations as it should focus and
improve the cash flow of the company and working capital to face the longterm obligations. The company should increase its equity
capital and work more on capital for financing.

CONCLUSION
The study on financial performance analysis of TATA MOTORS is stated in this report, this shows the company’s financial
analysis for the period of 10 years. The result revealed that the company has performed very bad almost in all parameters. We can
see Tata Motors' downfall, but it is expected to rebound because it is such a big company. The profitability position of the company
is not promising, that the company, has to decrease the cost of production and keep the cost lower or increase the sales price and
also need to improve the efficiency in converting sales into actual price.
