relationship is studied between the constituent parts of financial statement. For the purpose if analysis, the data is something

VIII. Review of literature

Kumar Anil, Singh Bhupender- (2017) - In this study, a universal methodology addressed by various researchers was explained in

detail and a summary of graph theory and matrix approach applications in various fields of engineering was also showed by

different graphs. The aim of study is to bring light in the relevance of maintaining quality as a means of offering customer

satisfaction toward automobile services sector. Study concluded that the customer satisfaction is most important part of any

automobile service sector. The main job of the service industry to improve client satisfaction and quality of service which is helpful

to improve the number of new clients.

Varadharaja P, (2004), “A study on risk & return analysis of automobile industry in India”, Automobile Industry is a symbol of

technical marvel by humankind. Automobile industry is considered to be one of the fastest growing sectors in any developing and

even in a developed country. Due to its deep forward and backward linkages with several key segments of the economy, the

automobile industry is having a strong multiplier effect on the growth of a country and hence is capable of being the driver of

economic growth.

Patel Vivek, (2010), “Financial performance of Tata motors”, the company has issued equity capital rather than going for

preference share which means the company’s dividend will not be fixed but the company has provided a good amount of dividend

to shareholders. Despite of having large reserves, company has opted for loan funds. The company had a good operating income

which shows that the company has a sustainable growth.

Chandrakat Jigna (2015) Author built a Z-score analysis on working capital management of the selected listed cement companies of

India, to predict their management of working capital. Two predictor variables are (1) Ratio of monthly net working capital to

monthly operation on working capital, and (2) Ratio of monthly net working capital to monthly sale were used in study. In

conclusion significant mean difference was observed for all the predictors on the dependent variable. Study concludes that the

current ratio of selected years was statistically not supported for application of discriminate analysis.

Umarani R., Jayanthi M. (2015) the study aimed at the measuring the liquidity risk in SBI & associate banks in India by using

graph analysis technique for the year 2011-2012. Research conclude the SBI & associated has been compelled to concentrate on

profitability at the cost of liquidity but the banks should estimate an optimum liquidity risk can undertake, because a very high

liquidity risk will affect the profitability itself.

Menaka R., Ashath K- (2015) research paper describe role of Indian Automobile Industry in the country’s growth, and the

initiatives of the Government towards and the achievement by the Indian Automobile Industries. Author conclude that that the

customer are mostly satisfied with price, design, safety, mileage, interior space, status brand name, comfort level, spares part and

after sale service. Customer satisfaction, a term is used in marketing it is a measure how product and service supplied by the

company meet or surpass customer expectation.

The report by CRISI (2013) says that automobile industry is expected to grow at an increasing pace after looking at the past

performances in years and also with the help of the data analysis. But there are concerns arising due to the increasing prices of the

fuels which could hamper the growth and this presents the uncertainty. Automobile is anything that has an engine and runs on

wheels and facilitates travel on the road. Over the years, automobiles have been used and evolved in order to help in road travel

Pasupathi N. - (2012) the report aimed at making a study of the management performance relating to working capital of selected

units of Indian Automobile Industry and also evaluating working capital management policies of those selected units. The study

concluded that in the years 1992–93 to 2006–07 Mahindra and Mahindra Ltd in passenger cars and multi-utility vehicles sector,

X. Analysis and interpretation of data

10.1 Ratio analysis

Ratio analysis is an important and powerful technique or method, generally, used for analysis of Financial Statements. Ratios are

used as a yardstick for evaluating the financial condition and performance of a firm. Analysis and interpretation of various

accounting ratios gives a better understanding of financial condition and performance of the firm in a better manner than the perusal

of financial statements. A ratio or financial ratio is a relationship between two accounting figures, expressed mathematically. Ratio

Analysis helps to ascertain the financial condition of the firm. In financial analysis, a ratio is compared against a benchmark for

evaluating the financial position and performance of a firm. Financial ratios help to summarize large quantities of financial data to

make qualitative judgment about the firm’s financial performance. Ratios are the symptoms of health of an organization like blood

pressure, pulse or temperature of an individual. Ratios are the indicators for further investigation.

10.2 Significance or Importance of ratio analysis

Evaluating the firm’s performance: - With the help of ratio analysis conclusion can be drawn regarding several aspects

such as financial health, profitability and operational efficiency of the undertaking. Ratio points out the operating

efficiency of the firm i.e. whether the management has utilized the firm's assets correctly, to increase the investor's

wealth.

Inter-firm comparison:- Ratio analysis helps in inter-firm comparison by providing necessary data. An interfirm

comparison indicates relative position. It provides the relevant data for the comparison of the performance of different

departments. If comparison shows a variance, the possible reasons of variations may be identified and if results are

negative.

Simplifies financial statement: The ratio analysis is one of the tools in the hands of those who want to know something

more from the financial statements in the simplified manner.
