EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This internship is a bridge between the institute and organization. This training program is
designed to give the future manager a feel about the corporate happenings and work culture
of an organization. These real life situations are entirely different from the stipulated exercise
enacted in an artificial environment inside the classroom and it is precisely because of this
reason that this summer training program is designed, so that managers of tomorrow get ideas
about the real time business operations. The summer internship program helps us to apply our
theoretical knowledge into the practical field.
Working capital is the most important part of the current assets of an organization.
Management of working capital is important because it has a direct impact on the financial
resources of the organization. Excess investment on the part of inventory is not viable
because the funds then will be held up in inventories and will not be available for other
important segment of the business. Less investment is also detrimental because the company
might face a huge problem in fulfilling the requirement of the business. Therefore, proper
working capital management is very essential for an organization.
This project explains in details of working capital management and how it is operated in an
organization. Various ratio analysis have been taken out on the basis of the data provided so
as to find out the trends of working capital requirements in TATA STEEL LIMITED, a
leading manufacturer of the steel in the world. A brief study of Indian steel has carried out a
comparative analysis of TATA STEEL LIMITED (TSL) AND JINDAL STEEL AND
POWER LTD (JSPL) AND SAIL. Thus analysis studies the different techniques used by
different companies and how effective those prove in this competitive environment.

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS
INTRODUCTION AND COMPANY PROFILE
M.S RAMAIAH INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT 8
SUMMER INTERNSHIP AT TATA STEEL LTD
1.1 BRIEF HISTORY OF GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT IN IRON &
STEEL INDUSTRYSteel is one of the top manufactured products of the world. It contributes to about 1661.5
million tones and showing a growth of over 1.2% in 2013. (Source: World Steel Association
or WSA) Nearly 67% of this was contributed to by Asia. China's share was 49.2%.China
remained the world’s largest crude steel producer in 2014 (823 mt) followed by Japan (110.7
mt), the USA (88.3 mt) and India (83.2 mt) at the 4th position. The history of the modern
steel industry began in late 1850s, but since then steel has been basic to the world's industrial
economy. Indian players like Tata Steel, SAIL and many others have gone global due to the
steel industry's growing rapidly and reaching new heights.
Steel is an important indicator to analyze the economic development of a country. The steel
industry is highly scientific and technology oriented. Technological advancement is very
important for the overall health of the steel industry.
1.1.1 GLOBAL SCENARIO
In 2014, global demand is forecast to grow faster at about 3.3%. However, more demand
growth is expected to come from outside of China as the Chinese Government pushes
through economic restructuring with a focus on private consumption. With the exception of
China, global supply and demand for steel will largely follow economic growth recovery
around the world.
In China, national mandates to rationalize capacity will have an effect on supply and as the
Chinese economy moves to a more consumer-driven model, steel consumption is expected to
moderate. The short-term estimates by World Steel Association for global steel demand are
similar on an overall basis, with some more positive views for growth in the US, the EU,
Brazil and Russia but a relatively lower expectation for Asian countries.
Growth in the Chinese economy continues to be a determining factor for the global steel
market in the medium-to-long term. As China seeks to restrain investment activity,
rebalancing and deleveraging, current forecasts for 2014 are for lower growth rates in
production and demand with the removal of excess capacity. However, if urbanization
projects continue, accompanied
M.S RAMAIAH INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT 9
SUMMER INTERNSHIP AT TATA STEEL LTD
By a strong domestic economy and a growing middle class, the demand for steel will
continue to stimulate. It will also shift the product range as more sophisticated consumer
products, such as automobiles and home appliances, are sought after. This will benefit
steelmakers with high-end, value-added products. Two factors may cause more rapid
restructuring of the Chinese steel sector:
• The excessive levels of debt may allow Chinese policy banks to stop funding losses as a
catalyst to restructure.
• The use of steel stockpiles to collateralize debt to be used for speculation is expected to be
unwound.
Steel demand in Europe and the US is likely to improve during 2014–15. In Europe, it is
expected to increase by a robust 2% in 201411 on the back of investment in the infrastructure
and manufacturing sectors. Although the growth may be insufficient to absorb the capacity
overhang, the switch from decline to marginal growth can be important for industry margins
and overall sentiment. US steel demand is also expected to improve on the back of residential
construction, growing automotive production and energy investments. Other regions to
experience faster steel demand growth will be India, Brazil, Russia and MENA (the Middle
East and North Africa).
It is fairly clear that while there has been a continuous strong growth, year on year, in China.
However, the trends in Japan and USA have not been so. The European Union has not been
out of the financial mess and the emerging economies do not hold any strong promise to the
global investor community in the short run as their macro management has been far below
expectation. The latest report of IMF also point to gloomy prospects of the emerging
economies while at the same time, they have in fact seen some stability creeping into the
economies of the developed world.
1.1.2 INDIAN SCENARIO
India's steel industry is more than a century old. Before the economic reforms of the early
1990s the Indian steel industry was predominantly regulated by the public sector. Tata Steel
was the only major private sector company involved in the production of steel in India. SAIL
and Tata Steel have traditionally been the major steel producers of India. In 1992,
liberalization of the Indian economy led to the opening up of various industries including the
steel industry.
M.S RAMAIAH INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT 10
SUMMER INTERNSHIP AT TATA STEEL LTD
Thus the number of producers increased, with increased investments in the steel industry and
increased production capacity.
Indian Steel industry went through a rough phase between 1997 and 2001 when the overall
global steel was facing a downturn but recovered after 2002. The major factors that led to the
revival of steel industry in India were the rise of global demand for steel and the domestic
economic growth in India.
The Indian steel industry has entered into a new development stage from 2007-08, riding high
on the resurgent economy and rising demand for steel. Rapid rise in production has resulted
in India becoming the 4th largest producer of crude steel and the largest producer of sponge
iron or DRI in the world.
Production
• Steel industry was delicensed and decontrolled in 1991 & 1992 respectively.
• Today, India is the 4th largest crude steel producer of steel in the world.
• India is the largest producer of sponge iron in the world with the coal based route
accounting for 89% of total sponge iron production in the country.
• Data on production for sale of pig iron, sponge iron and total finished steel (alloy +
non-alloy) are given below for last five years and April-December
1.2 FUTURE GROWTH PROSPECTS
There are many studies projecting steel demand growth scenario over the next couple of
decades. In a recent study, the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) has made the following
observations. :
a) On the present pattern of growth - the real GDP of India grew from 2002 to 2013 was at
7.4per cent and the steel consumption grew by 8.2per cent in the said period. Over the next
12
years at a GDP growth of 6 – 6.5per cent, and a GDP elasticity of steel demand at 1.1, the
likely growth of steel consumption growth rate was estimated at 7.3per cent per year and the
finished steel consumption in 2025-26, on this basis, was estimated to grow to 155 – 170
million tons by that year.
M.S RAMAIAH INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT 11
SUMMER INTERNSHIP AT TATA STEEL LTD
b) Bench marking India’s stage of economic growth with other countries – On another model,
following established trajectory of growth as seen in other countries, the per capita
consumption of steel in India would move from the level of 59 kgs in 2011 to 175 kgs in
2025-26, and given the fact that the population of India is projected to grow to 1.43 billion
that year, the steel consumption in 2025-26 is likely to be around 250 million tons. c) The
goal of India to increase share of manufacturing to 25per cent of GDP by 2025 – The above
target if achieved can propel the usage of finished steel from 16 kgs / $ PPP in the year 2012
to 22 – 25 kgs / $ PPP in the year 2024-25. This would mean a growth in steel consumption
of 9 -10per cent and the steel consumption in 2025-26 is likely to be around 230 – 255
million tons

1.3 GOVTERNMENT POLICIESThe economic reforms initiated by the Government since 1991 have added new dimensions
to industrial growth in general and steel industry in particular. Licensing requirement for
capacity creation has been abolished, except for certain locational restrictions. Steel industry
has been removed from the list of industries reserved for the public sector. Automatic

equity investment upto 100% is now available. Price and distribution controls have been
removed from January, 1992, with a view to make the steel industry efficient and
competitive. Restrictions on external trade, both in import and export have been removed.
Import duty rates have been reduced drastically. Certain other policy measures such as
reduction in import duty of capital goods, convertibility of rupee on trade account, permission
to mobilize resources from overseas financial markets and rationalization of existing tax
structure for a period of time have also benefited the Indian steel industry.
1.3.1 Important policy measures:
In the new Industrial Policy announced in July, 1991 Iron and Steel industry, among others,
was removed from the list of industries reserved for the public sector and also exempted from
the provisions of compulsory licensing under the Industries (Development and Regulation)
Act, 1951.
i. With effect from 24.5.92, Iron and Steel industry has been included in the list of `high
priority' industries for automatic approval for foreign equity investment upto 51%.
This limit has been recently increased to 100%.
ii. Price and distribution of steel were deregulated from January 1992. At the same time,
it was ensured that priority continued to be accorded for meeting the requirements of
small scale industries, exporters of engineering goods and North Eastern Region of
the country, besides strategic sectors such as Defence and Railways.
iii. Iron & Steel are freely importable as per the Extant Policy.
iv. Iron & Steel are freely exportable.
v. Advance Licensing Scheme allows duty free import of raw materials for exports.
vi. The floor price for seconds and defectives continues till date.
vii. Imports of seconds and defectives of steel are allowed only through three designated
ports of Mumbai, Calcutta and Chennai.
viii. Mandatory pre inspection certificate by a reputed international agency for every
import consignment of seconds and defectives.
ix. In the union Budget 2007-08 the import duty on seconds and defective has been
further reduced from 20% to 10%

1.5 MICHAEL E. PORTERS ANALYSIS OF TATA STEEL
Porter five forces analysis is a framework to analyze the level of competition within an
industry and business strategy development. It draws upon industrial organization (IO)
economics to derive five forces that determine the competitive intensity and therefore
attractiveness of an Industry. Attractiveness in this context refers to the overall industry
profitability. An "unattractive" industry is one in which the combination of these five forces
acts to drive down overall profitability. A very unattractive industry would be one
approaching "pure competition", in which available profits for all firms are driven to normal
profit. This analysis is associated with its principal innovator Michael E. Porter of Harvard
University.
Porter referred to these forces as the micro environment, to contrast it with the more general
term macro environment. They consist of those forces close to a company that affect its
ability to serve its customers and make a profit. A change in any of the forces normally
requires a business unit to re-assess the marketplace given the overall change in industry
information.
The overall industry attractiveness does not imply that every firm in the industry will return
the same profitability. Firms are able to apply their core competencies, business model or
network to achieve a profit above the industry average. A clear example of this is the airline
Industry. As an industry, profitability is low and yet individual companies, by applying
unique
M.S RAMAIAH INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT 16
SUMMER INTERNSHIP AT TATA STEEL LTD
Business models, have been able to make a return in excess of the industry average. Porter’s
five forces include - three forces from 'horizontal' competition: the threat of substitute
products or services, the threat of established rivals, and the threat of new entrants; and two
forces from 'vertical' competition: the bargaining power of suppliers and the bargaining
power of customers.
In this article, we have analyzed the domestic steel sector through Michael Porter's five force
model so as to understand the competitiveness of the sector.
1.5.1 COMPETITION
It is medium in the domestic steel industry as demand still exceeds the supply. India is a net
importer of steel. However, a threat from dumping of cheaper products does exist.
1.5.2 BARRIERS TO ENTRY
We believe that the barriers to entry are medium. Following are the factors that vindicate our
view.
1. Capital Requirement: Steel industry is a capital intensive business. It is estimated that to
set up 1 mtpa capacity of integrated steel plant, it requires between Rs 25 bn to Rs 30 bn
depending upon the location of the plant and technology used.
2. Economies of scale: As far as the sector forces go, scale of operation does matter. Benefits
of economies of scale are derived in the form of lower costs, R& D expenses and better
bargaining power while sourcing raw materials. It may be noted that those steel companies,
which are integrated, have their own mines for key raw materials such as iron ore and coal
and this protects them for the potential threat for new entrants to a significant extent.
3. Government Policy: The government has a favorable policy for steel manufacturers.
However, there are certain discrepancies involved in allocation of iron ore mines and land
acquisitions. Furthermore, the regulatory clearances and other issues are some of the major
problems for the new entrants.
4. Product differentiation: Steel has very low barriers in terms of product differentiation as
it doesn't fall into the luxury or specialty goods and thus does not have any substantial price
difference. However, certain companies like Tata Steel still enjoy a premium for their
products
M.S RAMAIAH INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT 17
SUMMER INTERNSHIP AT TATA STEEL LTD
because of its quality and its brand value created more than 100 years back. Bargaining
power of buyers: Unlike the FMCG or retail sectors, the buyers have a low bargaining power.
However, the government may curb or put a ceiling on prices if it feels the need to do so. The
steel companies either sell the steel directly to the user industries or through their own
distribution networks. Some companies also do exports.
1.5.3. BARGAINING POWER OF SUPPLIERS
The bargaining power of suppliers is low for the fully integrated steel plant like Tata Steel, as
they have their own mines of key raw material like iron ore coal. However, those who are
non-integrated or semi integrated has to depend on suppliers. An example could be SAIL,
which imports coking coal.
1.5.4 BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS
Bargaining power of buyers is moderate as there are few players in this industry and for Tata
Steel as the industry is very competitive and due to globalisation more and more intruders are
Prompting to invest in India and the major competitors are also looking for the opportunity to
grab the business so buying power for the buyers is moderate.
1.5.5 THREAT OF SUBSTITUTE
It is medium to low. Although usage of aluminum has been rising continuously in the
automobile and consumer durables sectors, it still does not pose any significant threat to steel
as the latter cannot be replaced completely and the cost differential is also very high

distributor is given 2 days training session, after which they become confident about the
product and learn how to differentiate its product from its competitor product. Aggressive
distribution strategy needs to be adopted for covering large rural area. Distributors keep
active sales force to cover all the retailers in their geographical area. Their sales force visits

the sales force comes up with attractive schemes for the retailers to help them achieve their
target sales. Dealers keep RSU vans which is used for transportation and advertising. All the
distributors have upgraded warehouse with weighing machine.
Tata steel segments its retailers in 4 categories:
1. The STAR.

1. PRODUCT (Brand, Packaging, Innovations, Quality) :
M.S RAMAIAH INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT 28
SUMMER INTERNSHIP AT TATA STEEL LTD
a. Brand: Advertising is often used to make consumers aware of a product’s special
low price or its benefits. But an even more important function of advertising is to
create an image that consumers associate with a product, known as the brand
image. The brand image goes far beyond the functional characteristics of the
product. The products of Tata Motors have many special characteristics to them,
but when consumers think of it, they not only think of its features, but they may
also associate it with quality, performance, and class. All of these meanings have
been added to the product by advertising. Consumers frequently buy the product
not only for its functional characteristics but also because they want to be
identified with the image associated with the brand. Tata Motors have been
successful in creating and maintaining a professional brand image.
b. Packaging: A vehicle cannot have a material packaging. Here, packaging refers
to and effective assembly of features. Tata Motors provide many innovative
features to suit the target customers and the product. E.g. Tata Safari Dicor has
‘Reverse Guide System’ which includes a weather-proof camera to help the driver
while reversing the vehicle.
c. Innovations: The various motives behind buying an automobile are Need,
Prestige, Comfort, Fashion, Jealousy and Novelty. The R & D Department
continuously strives to bring new innovations in their product. Tatas have an
industrial experience of over 100 years and they are well known with the
Psychology of Indian customers, who desire more at less price. This experience
has helped them to develop products which fulfill the expectations of Indian
consumers.
d. Quality Control: Tata Motors have their Quality Control standards and the QC
Dept. ensures that the customer does not face any inconveniences of a defective
product.
2. PRICE (Pricing Strategy, Alterations, Discounts)
a. Pricing Strategy: The prices are fixed keeping in mind a number of factors. As
told by Mr. Desai, prices have to be at par with the prices of the competitors. Tata
Motors give a relative price advantage as compares to its competitors. The various
Determinants of price are:
i. Market ConditionM.S RAMAIAH INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT 29
SUMMER INTERNSHIP AT TATA STEEL LTD
ii. Costs incurred
iii. Profit percentage desired by the Co.
iv. Dealer Profit
b. Alterations: The Company does not allow any alterations to any of the features of the
product. If there is an alteration which affects the performance of the engine, then the
warranty becomes void. However, there may be alterations in the accessories, if desired by
the customer.
c. Discounts: Discounts are decided by the Co. every month. Any further discounts made
from the profits of the dealer. However, the Co. may compensate the dealer for the discounts
allowed to a certain extent.
3. PROMOTION (Personal Selling, Advertising, Sales Promotion, Public Relations)
a. Personal Selling: There is minimal personal selling involved. The Sales Officers at the
dealerships collect prospective customer databases and perform cold calling to attract
customers.
b. Advertising: Advertising is a form of commercial mass communication designed to
promote the sale of a product or service. Tata Motors is responsible for the advertising of its
products. The dealer does play any role in the advertising. The various media used for
advertising are T.V., Newspapers, Magazines, Hoardings, and Internet etc. The dealer
conducts point-of-purchase displays to advertise the products. The advertisements done by
the Co. help the dealer to capitalize on the market.
c. Sales Promotion: The purpose of sales promotion is to supplement and coordinate
advertising and personal selling; Sales promotions are designed to persuade consumers to
purchase immediately by providing special incentives such as cash rebates, prizes, extra
product, or gifts. The Co. conducts intensive sales promotion during festivals such as festive
discounts during Diwali.
d. Public Relations : Public Relations is a management function that creates, develops, and
carries out policies and programs to influence public opinion or public reaction about an idea,
a product, or an organization. The Co. takes serious measures to maintain good public
relations. The Co. follows business ethics to ensure that the customer is satisfied and receives
good service whenever and wherever he desires.
4. PLACE (Channels of Distribution, Physical Distribution)
M.S RAMAIAH INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT 30
SUMMER INTERNSHIP AT TATA STEEL LTD
a. Channels of Distribution: In case of vehicles, dealership method of distribution and sales
is generally adopted. Tata Motors have also adopted dealership method of distribution of
its products. The dealers purchase products from the Co. at a negotiated price. The MRP is
fixed by the Co. and the dealer gets a profit within these prices. As the Co. deals in
commercial and passenger vehicles, there may be a single or distinct dealerships to market
its commercial and passenger vehicles in a town. However, if there is a single dealership
appointed, then the commercial and passenger vehicles are managed under Commercial
Vehicles Dept. and Passenger Vehicles Dept. respectively. Tata Motors have contracts
with the Government of India and it supplies buses and passenger vehicles, in some cases,
to the Govt. Sometimes, bulk quantities of vehicles are ordered by a Govt. Dept. or a
private company. The sales, distribution and billing of these are looked after by the Co.
itself.
b. Physical Distribution: The commercial vehicles are manufactured at Jamshedpur,
Lucknow and Pantnagar whereas the passenger vehicles are manufactured at Pune plant.
From the plant, the finished product is transported to the dealerships. The nation-wide
dealership, sales, services and spare parts network comprises over 2,000 touch points. The
dealerships are strategically located in the target and potential markets to ensure efficient
and timely availability of its products in the market.

Steel from product-driven to a customer-driven enterprise of the Internet economy "Implementing any ERP system is a challenge for an organization because of the declining
success rate of ERP implementations world-wide. The challenge is compounded if the ERP
provider is a world leader - SAP"
"Post the introduction of the SAP solution, the results have been terrific. The company has
spent close to Rs 40 crore on SAP implementation, and has already saved Rs 33 crore"
Choosing the platform and technology
The management at Tata Steel wanted the software to seamlessly integrate with its existing
information system and further provide compatibility with its future implementations. After
anin-depth study of functionality, cost, time, compatibility, esteem, operability, support and
future organizational requirements was done, SAP topped the list of contenders.
The implementation of SAP software was associated with certain strategic goals in mind. With
this implementation, TISCO wanted to bring forth a culture of continuous learning and
change. This would enable TISCO to achieve a world-class status for its products and services
and
strengthen its leadership position in the industry. Besides this, TISCO also wanted the software
to result in quick decision-making, transparency and credibility of data and improve
responsiveness to customers across all areas.

Achieving Business Agility through SAP
Marching ahead, Web enabling of SAP R/3 is on the cards. On the surface, it means it would
allow anyone to access our SAP R/3 over the Internet. But beneath it, the implications are
tremendous, as it would result in sharing of information with enterprise accounts and key
customers. The success in Marketing and Sales has prompted a re-visit of the existing system in
the works and a detailed rollout is expected as below.
Phase I - To Extend SAP in Works with FI, CO, MM, PP & QM
Phase II - To implement SAP modules such as Asset Management & Budget
management sub-modules of FICO, Plant maintenance, Human Resources,
Production Optimizer (such as SAP APO)
Phase III - SEM (Strategic Enterprise Management)
The company also plans to adopt the mySAP Customer Relationship Management solution to
enhance its customer relationships in the near term and eventually realize its dream of a
becoming the most efficient and competitive company in the world in its vertical

2.7.4 Recruitment
Through 2008-2009, the Tata Steel Group has continued to demonstrate that the recruitment
of the best of talent and the engagement of its employees is an asset through both high and
low demand cycles in the industry.
The Tata Steel Management Trainee Programme and the Corus Graduate Programme
continue to attract and offer exciting career options to young engineers who are from amongst
the best colleges of the country. The Group has continued the recruitment of apprentices,
graduates and targeted external middle and senior management staff to meet the current need
and prepare the bench strength for future operations.
2.7.5 Training and DevelopmentThe Group has continued to invest in and improve its managerial and technical capabilities
through the internal development of its own employees across Europe, India and South East
Asia
To bridge functional skill gaps and to identify candidates for focused learning in line with the
current and future needs of Tata Steel, a scheme called ‘Directed Learning Initiatives’ was
introduced in Tata Steel. The emphasis was to create a pool of experts in different technical M.S RAMAIAH INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT 36
SUMMER INTERNSHIP AT TATA STEEL LTD
areas. Apart from creating specialists, the policy also focusses on managerial learning which
consists of modular programmes with tie-ups with various management institutes.
With a view to augment the technical capabilities of the employees, a pilot programme in line
with the Technical Competency Assessment System was introduced in Tata Steel. Based on
the results, the learnings from the programme will be introduced to the rest of the
organisation.
The Performance Improvement Committee has continued to focus on improving both
knowledge management and the adoption of best practices across the Tata Steel Group. This
has benefitted TSE alongside the other operations of Tata Steel, NatSteel and Tata Steel
Thailand.
During the year, a greater focus was assigned to the ‘On-the-Job Learning’ for executives.
This is being offered through cross functional assignment/taskforce, role
enhancement/enrichment
and improvement Initiatives. The executives were also encouraged to undertake special
projects arising from their work assignments which had focused measures and deliverables.
2.7.6 Appraisal and Retention practicesIt is a fundamental principal of the Tata Steel Group that all the employees across the globe
are compensated fairly. Last year, like the previous years, compensation was based on market
benchmarking to ensure that Tata Steel remains an attractive and competitive employer in the
market place. Throughout the year, greater synergy was established between TSE, Tata Steel
India and the South East Asian operations. This included secondment of employees across
geographies. The Performance Improvement Committee has improved both the Knowledge
Management and the Adoption of Best Practices Initiatives across the Tata Steel Group and
this has benefitted TSE alongside the other operations of Tata Steel.
2.7.7 Measurement metrics.
As part of the global talent management initiatives, the year saw a greater movement of
executives between Tata Steel India, Tata Steel Europe, NatSteel and Tata Steel Thailand to
enable the cross pollination of ideas and practices and also provide executives with a global
Experience. The Management Trainee Programme has been re-designed to include special
modules of six months each in the areas of TQM, engineering and projects, and safety. This
will help the fresh graduate engineers prepare in a better way, for future assignments

M.S RAMAIAH INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT 48
SUMMER INTERNSHIP AT TATA STEEL LTD
Comparative ratio analysis and working capital management of TATA STEEL LTD with Sail
and Jindal.
4.1.1 Working capital
Fixed Capital: Long term funds required for purchase of fixed assets such as P&M, Land,
Building, Furniture etc. Investments in such type of assets leads to blockage of a part of
capital and this is the reason it is called fixed capital.
Working Capital: These are referred to as short term funds which are necessary for tuning
the day to day business. It includes marketable securities, debtors & inventories and other
current assets.
WORKING Capital = Current Assets – Current Liabilities
Classification of Working Capital

primary data. Data collected from secondary methods or which is already available, second
hand data is known as secondary data
SECONDARY SOURCE OF DATA
Annual report
Study of files and other documents.
Different records by the accounts and bill section.
Web sites of Tata Steel Ltd.
Web sites of SEBI, other Steel companies.
Review of previous reports related to the topic.
Study about the topic ‘Working Capital’ from books.
Secondary Data’s were collected by using company website, SEBI website, newsletters,
TMDC library, Annual report and books.
In this I have used secondary data most of which was obtained from internal records of the
company. Usage of secondary data enjoys some advantages but it suffers some limitations.

4.2.4.3 LIMITATIONS
The biggest limitation with respect to the topic was that the internship is based on
secondary data.
The study is limitation to the scope of data provided publically.
The terms of credit policies have not been revealed due to the company rule and
regulations.
As only secondary data is used in this project, it was difficult to determine the
accuracy of the data.
Some amount of data was updated and was not of match use.

NET WORKING CAPITAL
TOTAL CURRENT ASSETS TOTAL CURRENT LI-ABILITES NET WORKING CAPITAL
InterpretationThe net working capitals of the company is negative since last 3 years this is due to reduction
in loans and advances which reduces the current asset of the company.
Before 2011 company had positive working capital due to high loans and advances which
increases the current asset of the company.
Negative working capital generally depicts bad liquidity position and reduces the credit
worthiness of the company but this is not held true in case of Tata Steel because the company
enjoys good reputation due to which credit worthiness of the company good.

Interpretation:
The company has been able to maintain positive working capital since 2008-09 onwards till
2012-13 but it had a negative working capital in 2013-14. The company had best working
capital in the year2009-10 and although it reduced in the next years it remained positive till
2012-13. From the year 2008-09 the company has been improving its working capital but in
the year 2012-13 the working capital has gone down and gone negative in the year 2013-14
which should be a major concern for the company. But even in this situation the company has
tried not only to reduce its current assets but also to reduce its current liability which is again
a good sign.

SUMMER INTERNSHIP AT TATA STEEL LTD
In the graph and the table above the net working capital of Jindal Steel and Power Plant
Ltdhave been going down every year from 2010 onwards. In 2010 the networking capital was
positive but after that net working capital shows a negative balance which is the risky
situation for the company as current liabilities is more than current assets. The major reason
for increase in working capital is due to short term borrowings which increases over a period
of time. Therefore the company needs to check its working capital so as to maintain the
liquidity position of the company.

SUMMER INTERNSHIP AT TATA STEEL LTD
Current ratio is a useful test of the short-term-debt paying ability of any business. A ratio of
2:1 or higher is considered satisfactory for most of the companies but analyst should be very
careful while interpreting it. We have calculated Current ratio for 5 years. The current ratio of
Tata steel is comparatively lower than SAIL and Jindal in the current year. The current ratio
of Tata Steel had gone down because they are making one new project in Kalinganagar,
Orissa. They had invested money on that project. This does not affect the liquidity position of
the company because the credit worthiness of the company is good.

Interpretation
Quick ratio is considered a more reliable test of short-term solvency than current ratio
because it shows the ability of the business to pay short term debts immediately. A
Quick ratio of 1:1 is considered satisfactory. Like current ratio, this ratio should also
be interpreted carefully. Quick ratio of SAIL is comparatively higher then Tata Steel
AND Jindal during 2009 to 2012 but during 2013 to 2014 current ratio of Jindal is
higher than other two companies. Just because the quick ratio is less than 1 does not
mean that the company has a weak liquidity position, it can also happen that the
companies with low quick ratio has a fast moving inventories through which the
company generates money to pay their debts

Interpretation
Net profit (NP) ratio is a useful tool to measure the overall profitability of the
business. A high ratio indicates the efficient management of the affairs of business. In
this graph, we can clearly see that net profit of Jindal is highest in all 5 years.
However net profit of Tata Steel is higher than that of SAIL. The graph shows a
decreasing trend in overall net profit of all the companies over the period of time. This
may be due to increase in the production capacity of the company and with that the
raw material consumed has also increased because of which the profits have reduced.

Interpretation
The Debtors Turnover ratio should always be high. It shows that the receivables more
liquid and are collected promptly. From this graph, we can see that Tata Steel has
more debtors’ turnover ratio as compared to Jindal Steel and SAIL. SAIL has the least
debtors’ turnover ratio for all the 5 years with respect to Tata Steel and Jindal Steel.
For the current year 2013-14, the debtors’ turnover ratio of Tata Steel is 53.2 and we
can see that Jindal Steel and SAIL has very less debtors’ turnover ratio i.e. 10.1 for
Jindal Steel and 9.4 for SAIL. Here we can easily say that Tata Steel has the good
reputation in Debtors’ from all 3 companies

Interpretation
The creditors turnover ratio tells that out of Total purchase how much creditors are made.
This ratio indicates the speed with which amount is being paid to creditors. The creditors
turnover ratio for Tata Steel is least among the three companies. This does not signifies that
the credit worthiness of TATA STEEL is poor but it shows the confidence creditors repose
on the company. Since Tata steel has a good reputation therefore credit worthiness of the
company is good even after low credit turnover ratio.

Interpretation
The working capital turnover ratio measures how well a company is utilizing its
working capital to support a given level of sales. Working capital turnover ratio of
Tata Steel is positive for first 2 years and for last 3 years it become negative whereas
for Jindal Steel the ratio was positive for first years i.e. 2009-10 and after that last 4
years, there ratio is also in negative. But in case of SAIL the ratio was positive since
last 4 years but has reduced drastically in the current year. When the working capital
turnover ratio is negative it shows that the company credit worthiness is good.

InterpretationEvery firm has to maintain a certain level of inventory of finished good so as to be
able to meet the requirement to the business. But the level of inventory should neither
be too high nor too low. Tata Steel has the highest inventory turnover ratio for all the
5 years as compared to Jindal Steel and SAIL. Tata Steel has the inventories ratio
between 5 and 6 which is good for the company, but companies less than 5, we can’t
say that the companies having bad inventories turnover ratio.

Interpretation
The net operating cycle of Jindal has been best among all the three companies during 2010
and 2011.But the noticeable point is that in the year 2012 to 2014 the operating cycle of
Jindal has increased drastically and this is because of sudden work in progress conversion it
has built up.
The operating cycle of Tata steel is the least in the current year but the conversion period of
Tata steel is not good and it is quite high because of which at times it has shown negative
working capital.
As for SAIL even with such high operating cycle the company has been able to maintain its operations and keep its working capital in positive which is recommendable.

4.4.1 Findings
The ideal current ratio is 2:1 and as for Tata Steel 0.5 is the standard for current ratio.
Tata Steel has been improved from the past years. It is able to meet the standard.
The ideal quick ratio is 1:1. In the current year 2013-14 the ratio has decreased from
the previous year which clearly shows that the company keeps a lot of buffer stock
with itself since the production process is very long and also clears off its expenses in
advance.
The profit has been increasing over the years but had declined in the previous years
and has been improving in 2013-14.
Tata Steel is also following good strategy for blocking its funds for a longer period of
time when it comes for payment.
The Inventory Turnover ratio is to be reduced as it displays better management.
Finished goods Conversion period has increased from the previous years.
Working capital turnover ratio of Tata Steel is positive for first 2 years and for last 3
years it become negative. When the working capital turnover ratio is negative it shows
that the company credit worthiness is good.

Tata Steel's Raw Material Conversion Period has decreased over the years which is a
good sign for the company.
4.4.2 Conclusions
The success of an organization primarily depends on its ability to sustain its comparative
advantage irrespective of the strategy it adopts. The project studies the Working Capital of
Management of TATA STEEL, which is one of the most important aspects of any
organization, as it deals in managing the entire current assets and current liablities.After
analyzing the financial statement and having a in-depth study of working capital cycle and
various ratio of the company we conclude that the management of capital requires an
evaluation of cost and benefits associated with each elements. Tata Steel maintains sound
position of working capital its efficiency in receivable and deferral management is reflected
in a constantly decreasing operating cycle. The company has primarily been on cash drawn
from the market and reaping full benefits of its brand name. The company makes full
utilization of its fund before making payments to outsiders.
In the end we can conclude that working capital management has a great effect on the
profitability of the company and the managers can create value for the shareholders by
decreasing receivables accounts and inventory and the managers must look for the method
that by means of them and correct management be effective on the profitability of the
companies.

4.4.3 Recommendations
After going through all the information collected and ratio calculations, I would go for the
following recommendations :
The financial ratios need a change to an extent.
Advance payment should be avoided or else should be made against securities.
Maintenance of cash and bank balances is improving to a large extent. Hence the
fluctuations in net working capital are reduced.
There should be proper co-ordination between working capital group and its related
department i.e. debtors, inventory etc.
The work in progress conversion period has reduced from the previous years hence
this is a good sign for the company.
Maintenance of cash and bank balances has to be improving so that fluctuations in net
working capital could be avoided.
The raw material conversion period is reducing.
