INTRODUCTION TO THE PROJECT
The project work is to make observations on the performance and financial position of Bharti
Airtel Limited on the basis of Income Statements and Balance Sheet for the two years, i.e;
2009-2010 and 2010-11.
Income Statements and Balance sheets for two years are extracted in the report and are used
for the purpose of the project.
The project work is planned and executed by calculating following ratios:
1. Liquidity Ratios : These are the ratios which measures the short-term solvency
or financial position of a firm. These ratios are calculated to comment upon the short-
term paying capacity of a concern of the firm’s ability to meet its current obligation.
2. Long-term Solvency or Leverage Ratios: Long-term solvency ratios convey a
firm’s ability to meet the interest cost and repayments schedules of its long-term
obligations.
3. Activity Ratios : Activity ratios are calculated to measure the efficiency with
which the resources of a firm have been employed. These ratios are also called
turnover ratios because they indicate the speed with which assets are being turnover
into sales.
4. Profitability Ratios : These ratios measures the results of business operations or
overall performance and effectiveness of the firm.

LIQUIDITY RATIOS
1. Current Ratio : Current Assets
Current Liabilities
Year 2010 = 93,299
129,435 = 0.72:1
Year 2011 = 129,492
154,239 = 0.84:1
2. Acid Test Ratio : Liquid Assets
Current Liabilities
Year 2010 = 93,027
129,435 = 0.72:1
Year 2011 = 129,148
154,239 = 0.84:1
3. Cash Ratio :
Cash + Bank Balances + Marketable securities
Current Liabilities
Year 2010 = 71,313
129,435 = 0.55:1
Year 2011 = 104,375
154,239 = 0.68:1
Notes : Loans and advances (under the Current Assets, Loans and
Advances) are considered as short term investment.
Comments : The current ratio 0.72 in 2010 does not show the good liquidity
position as it is much below than the standard norms of 2:1. In the year 2011, it increases to
0.84, although this ratio also does not show the good liquidity position. Again, the standard
norms of acid test ratio are 1:1. In 2010 it shows a ratio of 0.72:1 and it increases in 2011 to
0.84:1. This ratio shows a satisfactory liquidity position. The cash ratio also shows a
satisfactory result, as in both the year it is the above of the standard norms of 0.5:1. The
financial position of the company is quite satisfactory.

LONG-TERM SOLVENCY OR LEVERAGE RATIOS
1. Debt Equity Ratio : Outsider ′ s Funds
Shareholder ′ s Funds
Year 2010 = 50,389
367,372 = 0.14:1
Year 2011 = 118,975
441,116 = 0.27:1
2. Proprietory Ratio : Shareholder ′ s Fund
Total Assets
Year 2010 = 367,372
417,794 × 100 = 87.93%
Year 2011 = 441,116
565,367 × 100 = 78.02%
3. Total Assets to Debt Ratio : Outsider ′ s Fund
Total Assets × 100
Year 2010 = 50,389
417,794 × 100 = 12.06%
Year 2011 = 118,975
565,367 × 100 = 21.04%
Comments : Debt equity ratio indicates that the proportion of funds provided by
long-term lenders in comparison to the funds provided by the owners is only 0.14 in 2010.
This portion has further increases to 0.27 in 2011. It shows that the long-term solvency
position of the company is very sound. The proprietory ratio in 2010 and 2011 are 87.93%
and 78.02% respectively. Although, in 2011 this goes decrease but this ratio shows the better
long-term solvency position. This fact is also supported by total assets to debt ratio. It
indicates that the proportion of assets financed through long-term loans is only 12.06% in the
year 2010 and it has increases to 21.04% in the year 2011.

ACTIVITY RATIOS
1. Stock Turnover Ratio : Cost of Good Sold
Average Stock
Year 2010 = 203
272 = 0.75 times
Year 2011 = 161
308 = 0.52 times
Notes : Closing Inventory of 2010 will be treated as the Opening Inventory.
Hence, Average Stock = 272 + 344
2 = 308
2. Debtors Turnover Ratio : Sales
Average Debtors
Year 2010 = 356,095
21,050 = 16.92 times
Year 2011 = 380,158
22,404 = 16.97 times
Notes : Closing Debtors of 2010 will be treated as the Opening Debtors.
Hence, Average Debtors = 21,050 + 23,758
2 = 22,404
Comment : Stock turnover ratio has dropped from 0.75 times to 0.52 times. It
indicates that the company is not rapidly turning the stock into sales. Unsaleable items have
been purchased which are included in the stock of the company. Debtors turnover ratio has
increased from 16.92 times to 16.97 times. It indicates that the company’s policy relating to
collection of debts and selection of customers for credit sales is quite satisfactory.

PROFITABILITY RATIO
1. Gross Profit Ratio : Gross Profit
Sales × 100
Year 2010 = 175,313

Year 2011 = 176,746
380,158 × 100 = 46.49 %
2. Operating Ratio : Cost of Goods Sold +Operating Expenses
Sales × 100
Year 2010 = 203+24,049+22401
356,095 × 100 = 13.10 %
Year 2011 = 161 + 31,802+21,353
380,158 × 100 = 14.02 %
3. Net Profit Ratio : Net Profit after tax
Sales × 100
Year 2010 = 94,262
356,095 × 100 = 26.47 %

380,158 × 100 = 20.30 %
4. Return on Equity (ROE) : Net Profit after tax
Shareholder ′ s Funds × 100
Year 2010 = 94,262
367,372 × 100 = 25.66 %

2011, which reflects a decrease in sales price of goods sold without corresponding decrease
in cost of sales.
