EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The project assigned to us was to study the financial analysis of any organization in the
country.
We decided to choose India’s largest company Reliance Industries Limited, by market
capitalization, in a sector that has rapidly grown in last few years.
Through this report, we try to analyse the financial environment in which RIL is operating.
Through a thorough financial analysis, we have tried to evaluate the ratios to the company
growth and performance in last five years.
The financial statement of last five years are identified, studied and interpreted in light of
company’s performance, critical decisions of distributing dividends, issue of bonus
debentures and other current news are analysed and their impact of bottom line of the
company is assessed.
Finally we study ratio analysis, fund flow analysis and cash flow analysis of the company to
analyse the financial position of the company in last 5 years.

Gross Profit of RIL
gross profit
Gross Profit ratio indicates the efficiency of production and pricing strategies applied by a company. In
simple terms, it measures the margin left after meeting all the manufacturing expenses including labour,
material and other manufacturing costs i.e. the costs which are directly related to the business. Going by
this definition it can be assumed that service industry players will normally have higher gross margins as
compared to players in manufacturing industries. This is primarily because they have lower
manufacturing costs. Moreover, range of gross margin varies across industries. The ratio is calculated as
follows:
Gross Profit Ratio = Net Sales - Cost of Goods Sold / Net Sales
Trend of the gross margins over a period of time provides a better meaningful insight into the business
strength rather than a single year's gross margin figure. A company earning a consistently high gross
margin over couple of years is in a better position to face the downturn in business cycles. However, a
company earning lower but a consistent gross margin over time is considered to be more stable compared
to a company boasting higher but a volatile gross margin. Significant fluctuations in the gross margin
figure can be a potential sign of fraud or accounting irregularities.
After the world starting recovering from the economic slowdown the demand of the crude-oil and other
related products soar up heavily which led to great demand of these products and hence the sales of the
RIL grew heavily. Also most of the refinery products of RIL is exported and the petrochemical(polyester)
products is consumed heavily in India itself with heavy market share of 84% in Polyester industry. So
RIL gross profit ratio is stable from 2006-2009 and it was decreased due to increase in net sales which is
good sign for the company.

Net Profit of RIL %
net profit %
Net profit margin measures the profit available for distribution amongst shareholders (both equity and
preference) after meeting all the expenses during the given period of time. It indicates the efficiency of all
business activities conducted during the given period, such as production, administration, selling,
financing, pricing, and tax management. It is calculated as follows:
Net Profit Ratio = Net Profit / Net Sales
Analysis of profit margins along with the study of a company's cost structure enables the analyst to
identify the sources of business efficiency.
In Reliance Industries the Gross Profit has increased by Rs.2114.21 crores whereas the Net Profit has
risen by Rs. 926.35 crores only; this is mainly due to the increase in current taxes that is to be paid,
though the provision for deferred taxes has been reduced considerably.

ROCE of RIL
roce
Return on capital employed shows the relationship between profit & investment. Its purpose is to measure the overall profitability from the total funds made available by the owner & lenders. The return on capital employed of 11.35% indicate that net return of Rs. 11.35 is earned on a capital employed of Rs.100. this amount of Rs. 11.35 is available to take care of interest, tax,& appropriation.
The return on capital employed is show-mixed trend, i.e. it increased in 2007 and finally decrease in 2008,then increased in 2010.The highest is in 2007 i.e. 18% This indicates a very high profitability on each rupee of investment & has a great scope to attract large amount of fresh fund.

INVENTORY TURNOVER RATIO OF RIL
INVENTORY TURNOVER
If we analyse the above graph the inventory turnover ratio of RIL was high in 2007-2008 but significantly
reduced in 2010 which is not so good sign. As low turnover ratio indicates the decrease in cost of goods
sold and the increase of average inventory. The inventory has increased up to Rs. 12,144.90 from sales of
Rs. 159.01 of inventories.

ASSET TURNOVER RATIO OF RIL
ASSET TURNOVER
This ratio is useful to determine the amount of sales that are generated from each dollar of
assets. As noted above, companies with low profit margins tend to have high asset turnover,
those with high profit margins have low asset turnover. Reliance Industries Limited asset
turnover seems to be relatively low, meaning that it makes a high profit margin on its
products. For companies in the retail industry you would expect a very high turnover ratio -
mainly because of cutthroat and competitive pricing.
Liquidity Ratios
Current ratio
Current ratio may be defined as the relationship between current assets and current
liabilities. This ratio is also known as "working capital ratio". It is a measure of general
liquidity and is most widely used to make the analysis for short term financial position or
liquidity of a firm. It is calculated by dividing the total of the current assets by total of the
current liabilities.
Formula:
Following formula is used to calculate current ratio:
Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
This ratio is a general and quick measure of liquidity of a firm. It represents the margin of
safety or cushion available to the creditors. It is an index of the firm’s financial stability. It is
also an index of technical solvency and an index of the strength of working capital.
A relatively high current ratio is an indication that the firm is liquid and has the ability to pay
its current obligations in time and when they become due. On the other hand, a relatively low
current ratio represents that the liquidity position of the firm is not good and the firm shall not
be able to pay its current liabilities in time without facing difficulties. An increase in the
current ratio represents improvement in the liquidity position of the firm while a decrease in
the current ratio represents that there has been deterioration in the liquidity position of the
firm.

In managing its short term obligations RIL has an edge over the average of the industry over
the last 5 years .RIL does not have a very good current ratio, but it has a relatively better
current ratio as compared to that of the industry. RIL’s current ratio has steadily increased
since 2007, but there was a huge increase in the year 2010, when the growth was of 45%. RIL
has a high current ratio as compared with the average of the industry which implies that it has
the ability to pay its current obligations in time and when they become due.

INTERPRETATION:
For quick ratio the rule of thumb is higher is better and the ideal ratio is considered 1:1. All the current ratio value of industry and company is below 1 and all the values are positive. The cash position of industry and company is increasing year by year but the performance is quite satisfactory in case of company not industry. As the quick ratio of company is increasing from the year 2007 which indicate that the company is improving their performance. Quick ratio of company is more than quick ratio of industry.

Current ratio is defined as an indicator of short-term debt paying ability of a company. It is
determined by dividing current assets by current liabilities. The higher the ratio, it is believed
that, the more liquid the company .Here we observe that the current ratio OF RIL which is
increasing year on year except during recession period ,in 2010 it has current ratio of 1.07
which is commendable and it shows company ability of paying its obligations. While a
competitor of RIL i.e. BPCL, IOCL and HPCL has current ratio under 1 which suggests that
the company would be unable to pay off its obligations if they came due at that point. So by
analysing the current ratio we can observe that RIL has better position than its competitors.

Earnings per share, as it is called, are a company's profit after tax (PAT) divided by its number of Outstanding (equity) shares. It is therefore measured as the portion of a company's profit allocated to each outstanding share of common stock. EPS serves as an indicator of a company’s profitability. As we can see in graph RIL EPS is much higher than its competitors indicating that RIL is in better position than its competitors.

It the net profit earned by the company after deducting all expenses like interest, depreciation
and tax. PAT can be fully retained by a company to be used in the business. However
dividend is paid to the shareholders. From this residue by analysing the above graph we can
see that PAT of RIL is much higher than its competitors from 2006-2010 which shows that
profit gain by RIL is much higher of its competitors. This clearly indicates that RIL is in good
position.

It's often used as an indicator of the amount of risk inherent in the shares of a particular
corporation .From the graph one can imply that the RIL’s debt –equity ratio is not that good
as compared to the industry as its debt equity ratio is lower throughout the last 5 years. This
shows that the company is not enjoying good run in the industry. The industry’s average is
good as it is more than 0.7 in the last 3 years. But RIL has even lower ratio than the industry,
which shows that RIL is not using much of debt as compared to equity.

RIL’s fixed asset turnover ratio is relatively worse than the industry constantly in the last 5
years. It shows that the company is not been able to utilize its fixed assets as efficiently as the
other firms in the industry. In the last 5 years the RIL’s average fixed asset turnover ratio is
of 1.3 as compar4ed to industry’s 3.4.

Dividend Payout Ratio
Dividend Payout Ratio
The dividend pay-out ratio provides an idea of how well earnings support the dividend payments. More mature companies tend to have a higher pay-out ratio.
A reduction in dividends paid is looked poorly upon by investors, and the stock price usually depreciates as investors seek other dividend paying stocks.
A stable dividend payout ratio indicates a solid dividend policy by the company's board of directors.
In the above figure, dividend payout ratio of RIL sharply decreased in 2007 and it reached its lowest point in 2008 because RIL reduced the dividend due to financial crisis that hit across the world.
FOREIGN EXCHANGE RESERVES

Another method of calculating Z-score is the ratio of sales and total assets. The standard
value of this ratio is 1. The value of this ratio for HPCL is always exceeded 1 for the last five
years indicating that its total sales exceeded its total assets every year. On the other hand, the
value of this ratio for RIL is consistently below 1 indicating that RIL has heavily invested its
money on the assets.

efficiency. If a company is not operating in the most efficient manner (slow collection), it
will show up as an increase in the working capital. In the above figure, in 2008 IOC and RIL
have witnessed their highest value of 0.17 and 0.1 respectively, but in 2009 there was drastic
decrease in the values of both the companies.

LOOKING BEYOND NUMBERS
NEWS ABOUT DEAL WITH BP
With Rs 63,000 crore cash in hand, Mukesh Ambani can buy anything on earth - and even look for
the skies. The recently signed deal with British Petroleum (BP) has given Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL)
humongous financial muscle power. According to analysts this would enable India's biggest company
to easily diversify into several emerging businesses and scale them up quickly. As on December 31,
2010, RIL had Rs 31,000 crore of cash reserves in its balance sheet and the BP deal would make it
richer by a further $7.2 billion (Rs 32,000 crore) shortly. Putting together, RIL will have a war chest
of a minimum Rs 63,000 crore without factoring in the cash profits to be generated from the
December-March quarter. According to some group officials, the BP deal awaits government's
approval and the money should come in by the April-June quarter of 2011-12.
Analysts feel that much of the cash reserves would go into the existing exploration business and
capacity expansion of the petrochemicals arm. The RIL spokesperson declined to comment as to
what the firm would do with so much money. "RIL has decided to go big in shale gas in the US and
aggressively buy blocks. Most of the funds may go there. Apart from this, RIL has identified 4G
(fourth generation) telecom as a growth area and could pump in funds for this business," said a
research head of a foreign brokerage who asked not to be named. Mukesh Ambani has already
outlined plans to foray into power, broadband, education and hospitality businesses, and the market
has been agog with speculation since many months that he may buy out Reliance Communications
(RCom) from younger brother Anil Ambani. This could not be independently verified, though.
The BP deal and recent statements by Mukesh Ambani indicate that RIL is adopting an asset light
strategy. And if this is true, the Reliance Communications deal may not happen. But nothing can be
ruled out if a good asset is available cheap, analysts felt.
Reliance Industries Buys 95% Stake In Infotel Broadband
Reliance Industries has bought 95% stake in Infotel Broadband Services for Rs.4,800 Cr.
Infotel will issue fresh equity shares to RIL. Infotel Broadband Services has won pan India
Broadband Wireless Access spectrum license for 22 circles for around Rs 12,848 crore ($2.7
billion). The company has been promoted by Anant Nahata, son of Mahendra
Nahata of Himachal Futuristic that makes optical cables and fibres. So the company is
indirectly entering into the Telecom industry by entering into the Broadband Wireless
Auction and taking a call on the future technology that will rule the upcoming generations.
RIL bets big on power and telecom
Addressing the 36th AGM of Reliance Industries Ltd, Mukesh Ambani chalked out the major
plans of the company going forward. He divulged details of his aggressive and mega plans in
the oil & gas, power and telecom sectors. He opened the speech by his comment on his
company's estranged relationship with Anil-Ambani-led ADAG group. He said that his
company will have a constructive relationship with ADAG and will provide gas to ADAG
projects when they are ready. He said the company was conscious of government's stake in
gas operations. The senior Ambani remained concerned about the global uncertainties,
which he said, will have its impact on businesses. Slower than anticipated economic growth,
he feared, will give further rise to protectionism. Mukesh, however, lauded the Indian
government's efforts in sustaining growth. India is set to become the fastest growing
economy in coming years and Reliance Industries is well placed to take a lead position in
nation-building, he said. Elaborating further, Ambani said that the company has cash
equivalent of Rs 21,874 crore, which will give space for inorganic growth. He said that the
company is planning significant capacity in the polyester segment and to unleash new
petrochemical projects. For the same, the company is setting up a 2.3 mt PTA 5.4 lakh tonne
capacity.
On Oil and Gas sector
RIL is planning to set up coke gasification unit and will also start producing kerosene at
Jamnagar refining facility. He has informed that the company has already supplied 510
billion cubic metre of gas from D6 Block.
