planning and control of the firms financial resources. It was a branch of economics till 1890,
and as a separate discipline, it is of recent origin. Still it has no unique body of knowledge of
its own, and draws heavily on economics for its theoretical concepts even today.
The subject of financial management is of immense interest to both
academicians and practicing manager. It is of great interest to academicians because the
subject is still developing, and there are still certain areas where controversies exist for which
no unanimous solution has been reached as yet.

From this is clear that financial statements are affected by three things.
1. Recorded Facts
2. Accounting Conventions
3. Personal Judgment
SCOPE OF FINANCE
What is finance? What are a firms financial activities? How are they related to the firms
other activities? Firms create manufacturing capacities for production of goods. Some
provide services to customers. They sell their goods or services to earn profit. They raise
funds to acquire manufacturing and other facilities. Thus the three most important activities
of a business firm are:
1. Production
2. Marketing
3. Finance
FINANCE FUNCTIONS
The finance functions from the production marketing and other functions but function
themselves can be readily identified. The function of raising funds, investment them in asset
and distributing returns earned form assets from assets to shareholders are respectively
know as finance decision, investment decision and dividend decisions.
INVESTMENT DECISION
A firm investment decisions involve capital expenditures. They
are, therefore, referred as capital budgeting decisions.
long-term assets:
Which yield a return over a period of time in future?
Short _ term or current assets:
Define as those which in the normal course of business are

FINANCIAL DECISION
Financial function is a second important function to be performed by the financial
manager. Broadly he or she must decide when. Where from and how to acquire funds to
meet the firms investment needs.
DIVIDEND DECISION
Dividend decision is the third major financial decision. The financial manager must
decide whether the firm should distribute all profits or retain them, of distribution a
period and retain the balance.
LIQUIDITY DECISION
Investment in current assets affects the firm profitability and liquidity. Current assets
management that affects a firms liquidity is yet another important finance function.
Current assets should be managed efficiently of safe guarding the against the risk of
liquidity.
WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
Working capital may be regarded as lifeblood of a
business. The success of business is depends upon the efficiency of working capital,
while its inefficient management can lead not only to loss profit but also the ultimate
downfall of what otherwise might be considered as a promising concern. A study of
working capital is of major important to internal & external analysis because of its close
relationship with the current day-to-day operation of business. In the word of Ralph
Kennedy and Steward MC Muller, inadequacy of miss management is the leading
cause of risk in business which related to current operations and represented at any one
time by the operating cycle of such item as against receivables and cash. In accounting
working capital is the difference between the inflow and outflow of funds, it is also
called net cash inflow.
-

It is defined as the excess of current assets and current
liabilities and provisions. In other words net current assets or net working capital, this
definition of working capital is qualitative in character. Working capital represents the
total of all current assets. In other word it is called gross Working capital or circulating
capital of current capital. The current liabilities and provisions excess assets, the
difference are referred to as negative working capital the use of the circulating capital
instead of working capital indicate that the flow is circular in nature. The beginning of
business venture, cash is providing by owners and lender. This is used for purchasing of
fixed assets, which is not to be sold throughout the year during the normal course of
business. Remaining cash will be used for working capital to meet the current
requirement of a business enterprise such the purchase to service .raw material etc..,
when receivable are collected .
PRINCIPLES OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
Principal of risk variation:-
Risk refers to the inability of firm to maintain sufficient current assets to pay full
obligation. If working capital sufficient current assets to pay full its obligation. if working
capital is varied relative to sales, the amount of risk that a firm assumed is also varied,
and the opportunity for a gain or loss is increased . In other there is definite relationship
between the degree of risk and the rate of between. A firm assumes more to sales
decreased the degree or rest increase. Thus working capital group the amount of risk goes
down, the opportunity for a gain or loss is likewise adversely affected. The good of
management should however be that level of working capital which would optimize a
firms rate or return. This live the incremental by associated with the decrease in working
capital investment greater than the increment gain associated with that investment.
Principal of cost of capital:-
-
7/28/2019 Taj Working Capital
5/52
The different source of finance for each source has a different cost of capital.
It should be remembered that the cost of capital moves insecurely with risk. Thus additional
risk capital results in the decline in the cost of capital.
Principal of equality position:-
According to this principle, the amount of working capital investment in
each component should be adequately justified by a firms equality position. Every rupee
invested in the working capital should contribute to new work of the firm.
Principle of maturity of payment:-
A company should make every effort to relate maturities of payment to be
flow of internally generated funds. There should be the least disparity between the
maturities a firms short-term debt instruments and its flow of internally generated funds
because a greater risk in generated with greater disparity. A margin of safety should.
However be provided for short term debt payment.
SOURCE OF WORKING CAPITAL:-
The need of working capital is increased by raising prices of end produce
and relative inputs. Financing if additional working capital requirement in such an
environment because s real problem to a finance manager. Commercial banks play a most
important role in providing working capital finance especially in the India. In inflation
situation the R.B.I. has taken up certain fiscal measure to check money supply in the
economy the balancing need has be managed either by long term borrowing or by issuing
equity etc. are the additional working capital requirement. The first choice to finance
manager is for getting additional finance is banks; it may not provide he go long-term sources
of finance.
a. Loan from financial institutions:
The opinion is normally ruled out, because financial institutions do not provide
finance for working capital requirement. This facility is not applicable for all companies
including small companies also.
b. Floating or Debentures:-
The probability of a successful floatation of debenture seems to be rather merging.In India capital market, floating of debenture has still to gain popularity debenture issues
-

of companies. For this modes of raising funds by issuing convertible debentures or bonds
is also considered, which may attract a number of investors.
c. Accepting public deposits:-
The issue of tapping public deposits is directly to the image of the company seeking
to invite public deposits. But the problem of low profitability in many industries is
varying common.
d. Issues of shares :-
With a view to financing additional working capital needs issued of additional
shares should be one way to raise the equity base. India companies find themselves in a bad
shape in this context too. Low profit margins as well as lack of knowledge, about the
company make the success of a capital issues very dim.
e. Raising funds by internal financing;-
Raising equity by operational profits poses problems for many companies in order
to overcome this, increasing profitability through cost control and cost reduction
measure managing the case operation cycle, rationalizing inventory stocks and so on.
Among main source of working capital, one source is the funds provided though profit
on current operations. Other sources are banks credit other short-term loans trade credit
sale of marketable securities etc.
EX:- Receipts from sale are used not only to replenish the working capital invested in
inventories and to pay operation costs but also to generated new working capital.
TYPES OF WORKING CAPITAL:-
1. NET WORKING CAPITAL:-
The net working capital is the difference between current assets and
current liabilities. The concept of networking capital enables a firm to determine how
much amount is left for operational requirement.
2 . GROSS WORKING CAPITAL:-
Gross working capital is the amount of funds invested in the various
components of current assets. Advantages of Gross Working Capital are.

Gross working capital provides the current of working capital at the right time.
It enables a firm to realize the greatest return on its investment.
It helps in the fixation of various areas of financial responsibility.
3. PERMANENT WORKING CAPITAL:-
Permanent working capital is the minimum amount of current assets which is
needed to conduct a business even during the dullest season of year. This amount
various from year to year. Depending upon the growth of the company.
Permanent working capital has following characteristics
It is classified on the basis of time factor.
It constantly changes from one asset to another and continues to remains in the
business process

receivables and inventory which are required during the more active business
seasons of the year.
Temporary working capital characteristics are
It is not always gainful employees, though it may change from one asset to
another, as permanent working capital does and
It is particularly suited to business of seasonal or cyclical nature

BALANCE SHEET WORKING CAPITAL:-
The balance sheet working capital is one which is calculated from the item appearing
in the balance sheet. Gross working capital which is represented by the excess of current
assets and Net working capital which is represented by the excess of current assets over
current liabilities is example of the balance sheet working capital.
6. CASH WORKING CAPITAL:-
Cash working capital is one which is calculated from the items appearing in the
profits & loss account it shows the real flow of money or value at a particular time and is
considered to be the most realistic approach in working capital management in financial
management in recent years. The reason is that the cash working capital indicates theadequacy of the cash flow, which is essential prerequisite of the business.

Negative working capital emerges when current liabilities exceed current assets. Such
a situation is not absolutely theoretical, and occurs when a firm is nearing a crisis of some
magnitude.

Working capital cycle:-
Maximization of share holders wealth of a firm is possible only when there are
sufficient returns for their operations. But profits can be earned will naturally depend upon
the magnitude of the sales. In other words, successful sales activity is necessary for earning
profits. Sales do not convert in to cash immediately. There is invisible time between sale of
goods and receipt of cash. In other words, sufficient working capital is necessary to sustain
sales activity.
The operating of working capital cycle concept penetrates to the heart of working
capital management in a more dynamic form. The time elapses to convert raw-materials in
to cash is known as working capital operating cycles. In other words the time that elapses
between the purchase of raw-materials and collection of cash for sale is referred to as the
working capital operating cycle.
The working capital operating cycle involves the following procedure:
a) Conversion of into raw-materials.
b) Conversion of raw-materials into work-in-progress.c) Conversion of work-in-progress into finished goods.
d) Conversion of finished goods into sales (debtors & cash).
e) Conversion of debtors into cash.

The working capital operating cycle normally confines to a year to year with
reference to which various factors of working capital are evaluated. Working capital cycle isthe period with in which either raw-material converts itself to cash or commences with cash
and ends with cash.
METHOD OF ESTIMATING WORKING CAPITAL:-
There are two methods which are usually followed in determining working capital
requirements
1. CONVENTIONAL METHOD:-
According to the conventional method, cash inflows and out flows are matched
with each other. Greater emphasis is laid on liquidity and greater importance is attached to
current ratio, liquidity ratio etc. which pertain to the liquidity of a business.
2. OPERATING CYCLE METHOD:-
In order to understand what gives rise to difference. In the amount of
timing of cash flows we should first know the length of time which is required to
covert cash into resources into financial products, the final produce into receivables
-
7/28/2019 Taj Working Capital

back into cash. The length of the operating cycle is a function of the nature of the
nature of the business. There is four majors component of the operating cycle of a
manufacturing company.
The cycle starts with free capital in the firm of cash and credit, followed by
investment in materials. Manpower and service.
Production phase
Storage of the finished products terminating at the time finished product is sold.
New free capital then the becomes available for productive reinvestment. When new liquid
capital becomes available for recommitment to productive activity, a new operating cycle
begins. This method is more dynamic and refers to working capital in a realistic way. This
method helps in increasing the profitability of business. It enables a company to maintains
liquidity and preserve that liquidity through profitability. The operating cycle and considered
production and other business operations, and forecast the changes that may be necessary in
the pursuit of the future activities.
Ratio analysis is one of the powerful tools of the financial analysis. A Ratio can be
defined as The indicated quotient of two mathematical expressions. A Ratio can be used as
a yardstick for evaluating the financial position and performance of a concern because the
absolute accounting data cannot provide meaningful understanding and interpretation.
Current Ratio:
Current ratio measure the liquidity position of the business or ability of the
business to meet its current obligations. Conventionally, 2:1 ratio is referred to as bankers
rule of thumb, which represents a healthy trend in the business. However, there is no ratio
that can be treated as standard or ideal for all firms in an industry or for similar firms in
different industries. Each firm has to develop its own standard or ideal ratio from pastexperience and this only can be taken as a norm.
Current Assets
Current Ratio = Current Liabilities
-
7/28/2019 Taj Working Capital
12/52
In any operating concern, the current ratio should be 2:1 which is referred to as
bankers rule of thumb or accepted standard of liquidity
Liquid Ratio :
The quick ratio is better test of financial strength than the current ratio, as it gives
no consideration to inventory, which cannot be sold at fair prices immediately. In other
words, Acid ratio is a measure of judging the immediate ability of the company to pay- off its
current obligations. This ratio lays more emphasis on immediate conversion of assets into
cash. A quick ratio of 1:1 is usually considered favorable.
During the financial years under study the quick ratio has decreased every
year, though it has decreased, the company has maintained a good position in this regard. A
high liquidity ratio compared to current ratio may indicate under stocking, while low liquidity
ratio may indicate over stocking. Almost for all the years, the company had been maintaining
good inventory levels.
Liquid Assets
Liquid Ratio = ---------------------------------------
Current liabilities
Super Quick Ratio:
Through receivables are generally more liquid than inventories, there may be
debts having doubt regarding their real stability in time. So, to get idea about the absolute
liquidity of a concern, both receivables and inventories are excluded from current assets and
only absolute liquid assets, such as cash in hand, cash at bank and readily realizable securities
are taken in to consideration. Super Quick Ratio is calculated as follows:
Cash in hand and at bank
Super Quick Ratio = ---------------------------------------
Current liabilities
-

The desirable norm for his ratio is 1:2 i.e., Re. 1 Worth of absolute liquid assets are sufficient
for Rs.2 worth of current liabilities. Even through the ration given a more meaningful
measure of liquidity, it is not in much use because the idea of keeping large cash balance or
near cash
Current Assets to Total Assets:
It expresses the fund investment in working capital and the proportion
of current assets to total assets. This ratio helps to assess the importance of current assets in
total assets. Higher proportion reveals that the company gives more importance to working
capital investment and vice versa. It can be seen from table that the companys current
assets to total assets ratio has increased every year during the period of study. On an
average 68 Percent of the amount invested in current assets. It shows that the company had
given greater emphasis to working capital investment as compared to fixed assets and
current assets is high which shows that company has excessive liquidity
Current Assets
Current assets to total assets ratio = ---------------------------
Total Assets
Current Assets to Fixed Assets Ratio:
The finance manager should determine the optimum level of current
assets so that the wealth of shareholders is maximized (walker, 1964).A company needs
currents and fixed assets to achieve the desired level of output. If the output and sales
increase, the need for current assets increases. Increases in current assets are not
proportionate to the output. The level of the current assets can be measured by relating
current assets to fixed assets. The ratio of the company indicates that the company has
followed the conservative current assets policy which shows that the company has liquidity
and low risk.

Activity rations are employed to evaluate the efficiency with which the firm manages
and utilizes its assets. These rations are also called turnover into sales. Activity ratios, thus
involve a relationship between sales and assets.
Debtors Turnover Ratio:
A firm may sell goods on cash as well as on credit. When the goods are
sold on credit, the parties or whom the goods have been sold, are called as debtors or book-
debtors in accounting terminology. There must be proper credit collection policy to ensure
proper credit collection policy to ensure proper collection of debts without which there is
every possibility of outstanding debts becoming bad. Therefore debtors turnover ratio is
calculated to measure the efficiency of credit promotion policy and credit collection policy.
Debtors turnover ratio indicates the speed with which the debtors are turned over
during a year it is expressed in number of times the debtors are turned over.
Credit sales
Debtors Turnover Ratio =
AVERAGE TRADE DEBTORS=
(Opening Trade debtors+ Bills Receivables)+ (ClosingTraders+Bills Receivables)
Higher Debtors Turn over (DTO) ratio indicates more efficient collection of debts and
signifies the more liquidity of debts and signifies the more liquidity of debts and lower
DTO ratio indicates more inefficient collection of debts and signifies less liquidity of debts
Working Capital Turnover Ratio:
It indicates the efficiency of the company in utilizing the working capital in
business. High ratio denotes more efficient use of working capital in the business and vice
versa. Table indicates that the ratio varies from 6.71 to 28.59.

countries jointly would account for over 30 per cent of global diamond market in 2015.
India possesses world's most competitive gems and jewellery market due to its low cost of
production, highly skilled, low-cost and best artisan force for designing and craftingjewellery, along with strong government support in the form of incentives and establishment
of special economic zones (SEZs).
Industry Structure
Indian gems and jewellery sector is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate
(CAGR) of around 16.26 per cent during the period 2012-13 to 2016-17 on account of
increasing government efforts and incentives coupled with private sector initiatives,
according to a report of the working group on 'Boosting India's Manufacturing Exports', by
Ministry of Commerce & Industry.
Shipment of gems and jewellery makes up about 14 percent of India's total exports, and the
sector employs about 3.4 million workers, with the Middle East taking most of the market.

Gold Jewellery
Gold with its intrinsic luster and ease of fabrication has always been the jewellers' favourite
metal. Gold jewellery enjoys the leading position in various markets across the world and
forms around 80 per cent of the Indian jewellery market, with the balance comprising
fabricated studded jewellery that includes diamond and gemstone studded jewellery.
Gitanjali Group, the world's largest integrated branded jewellery retailer-manufacturer, plans
to set up additional 300 shops in India by the end of current year in order to expand its retail
business, as per Mehul Choksi, Chairman and Managing Director, Gitanjali Group.
Tanishq, the jewellery wing of Titan Industries Ltd, plans to invest more than Rs 1,000 crore
(US$ 184.89 million) to expand its network across the country in 2013-14.
Diamonds
India has the distinction of being one of the first countries to introduce diamonds to the
world. Diamonds manufactured in India constitute 65 per cent by value, 85 per cent by
volume and 92 per cent by pieces of the world diamond production, making the country not
only the leading global manufacturer but also one of the highest consumers of rough
diamonds in the world. The increase in imports of rough diamonds by 12.65 per cent
indicates an increase in cutting, polishing and other manufacturing activities in India.
Developed by the De Beers group of companies, the diamond brand Forevermark has
benefited from more than a century's worth of innovation, creativity as well as technological
advances. Today, the brand joins the group in celebrations for 125 years of diamond
excellence and expertise.
Likely to come into commercial production in 2017, discovery of the Bunder diamond project
in 2004 by Rio Tinto, signals a new chapter in an alliance with Rio Tinto presenting a unique
opportunity for India to mine, manufacture and market its own diamonds. Once developed
the Bunder project is expected to place Madhya Pradesh in the top ten diamond producing
regions of the world.

2.4 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
METHOD OF DATA COLLECTION
The task of data collection begins after a research problem as beendefined and research design chalked out. While deciding about to the method of data
collection to be used for the study. These are mainly two sources of data available for
the researcher.
They are primary data and secondary data. The primary data are those
which are collected a fresh and for the first time and thus happen to be original in
character. The secondary data, on the other hand, are those which have already been
collected by someone else and which have already been passed though the statistical
process.
This study is generally based on the secondary data. Which was obtained
from the published sources i.e, annual reports of Taj Enterprises for a period of five
years from 2008-09 to 2012-13.
2.5 LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
-
7/28/2019 Taj Working Capital
38/52
The study is not completely generalized because limited rations are calculated only
based on the financial information given by the company.
The interpretation of rations is only based on the assumptions of the researcher due to
lack of fixed standards or rules of thumb. The rations calculated my also suffer from the inherent weakness of accounting data
provided by the company.
The study was limited to only five years.
The study is purely based on secondary data which were taken primarily from
published annual reports of Taj Enterprises
