Growth so Far

Having started as a mustard trading house in 1958, B.L. Agro has come a long way
today. During the course of its journey, 1999 proved to be a landmark year which
transformed the business house from a commodity trading organization to an
FMCG company. The year witnessed the birth of B.L. Agro Oils as a registered
company and also marked its advent into quality control, packaging and marketing
of consumer packs of their flagship brand - Bail Kolhu Kachchi Ghani Mustard
Oil. Achieving an astonishing turnover of Rs. 60 crores in the first year itself, the
company has not looked back since.

Expansion and up-gradation has been a continuous process for B.L. Agro. The
marketers of a single mustard oil brand subsequently started rolling out multiple
varieties of mustard oil - thus catering to a much wider consumer base. As the

product range swelled, the competencies, capabilities and capacities were


continuously enhanced to meet the growing challenges. However even with its
ever-expanding size, B.L. Agro never lost sight of its ultimate goal that of
providing only the highest product quality - and hence set up its own advanced
quality control systems and packaging facilities.

Later, the company took another stride when being a player in the lone mustard oil
segment, B.L. Agro diversified into Refined Soybean oil and then further to
various blended edible oils. In 2006, B.L. Agro achieved yet another milestone
when it established its own state-of-the-art Refinery.

What Drives Success

unparalleled. B.L. Agro understands that eating habits of consumers are very
individualistic and vary from house to house. And in order to make a long term
relationship with the collective base, the company needs to pack Real Customer
Delight in each pack that it offers.

Moreover what has brought laurels to B.L. Agro and awarded it a leadership
position is the company's ability to anticipate and adopt to Market Demand Shifts
resulting from either consumer Living Pattern Shifts or any other reason. At B.L.
Agro, change has been one of the most consistent processes. Be it technological
capabilities, be it the strength of human minds or be it the collective efficiencies,
B.L. Agro has always anticipated the changing environment and empowered itself
for the same.

The most important success driver at B.L. Agro is its ability to offer Consistency

consignment, the products of B.L. Agro carry exactly the same quality and purity
standards for which they have gained widespread respect.

= 4212526565.03/98300928.1105
= 42.853

Average receivable = 196601856.21/2


(Year 2009-2010) = 3540722900/146364114.69
= 24.191
Average receivable = 292728229.38/2

Working capital turnover ratio- It reveals the efficiency with which


Working capital has been utilized by a concern.

Working capital turnover ratio = cost of goods sold / working capital


(Year 2010-2011) = 3858629841.63/503791035.34
= 7.659 times

(Year 2009-2010) = 464037007/420272298


=1.104 times

Working capital = current assets current liabilities


(Year 2010-2011) = 863953120.61 - 360162085.27
= 503791035.34
(Year 2009-2010) = 617977315 - 197705017
= 420272298

Capital turnover ratio sometimes the efficiency and effectiveness of the


operation is judged by

comparing the sales with the amount of capital

invested in the business. Capital employed is either equal to shareholders


fund plus long-term loans or equal to total assets minus current liabilities.
This is calculated by establishing the relationship between sales and capital
employed.
Capital turnover = sale / capital employed
(Year 2010-2011) = 4212526565.03 / 969095600.45
= 4.346 times
(Year 2009-2010) = 3540722900 / 776208704
= 4.561 times

Capital employed = total assets current liabilities


(Year 2010-2011) = 1329257685.72 - 360162085.27
= 969095600.45
(Year 2009-2010) = 973913721-197705017
= 776208704

Assets turnover ratio:-

Assets turnover ratio shows the relationship

between total assets and sales of concern.

Assets turnover ratio = Net Sales/Total assets

(Year 2010-2011) = 4212526565.03/1329257685.72

= 3.169 times
(Year 2009-2010) = 3540722900 / 973913721
= 3.635 times

Total assets = fixed assets + current assets + investment


(Year 2010-2011) = 451232774.11 + 863953120.61 + 14071791.00
= 1329257685.72
(Year 2009-2010) =351748239 + 617977315 + 4188167

the utilization and effectiveness of the uses of current assets or state over
investment or under investment in current assets. It may be pointed out that over
and under

investment in current assets may indirectly affect the solvency of the

concern. Its the ratio between costs of sales and currents assets.

Financial ratio
Currents Ratio- The ratio of current assets to current liability is called
current ratio. This ratio is an indicator of the firms commitment to meet its
short-term liabilities. Current assets include cash and other assets convertible
into cash during the operating cycle of the business. Current liabilities mean
liabilities payable within a years time. An idle current ratio is 2:1, the ratio
of 2 is considered as a safe margin of solvency. A very high current ratio
would indicate the less efficient use of funds while a poor current ratio is a
danger signal to the management.

Current ratio = current assets / current liabilities


(Year 2010-2011) = 863953120.61/ 360162085.27

= 360162085.27
(Year 2009-2010) = 68151089+101543687 +28010241
= 197705017

Quick ratio This ratio is also called acid test ratio and liquidity ratio.
This ratio is ascertained by comparing the liquid assets to current liability.
The idle ratio is 1. This ratio is also an indicator of short-term solvency of
the company. A comparison of current ratio to quick ratio will indicate the

inventory hold-ups. For example, if two units have same current ratio but
different liquidity ratio, it indicates over stocking by the concern having low
liquidity ratio as compared to the concern, which has a higher liquidity ratio.

Quick ratio = liquid assets / current liabilities


(Year 2010-2011) = 304862175.25 / 360162085.27
= 0.846: 1
(Year 2009-2010) = 386319140 /197705017
= 1.954: 1
Liquid assets = Current assets (inventory + prepaid exp.)
(Year 2010-2011) = 863953120.61- (559090945.36 + 0)
= 304862175.25
(Year 2009-2010) = 617977315 (231658175 + 0)
= 386319140

Cash ratio This is the ratio between cash and balances to current liabilities.
As such
Cash ratio = Cash + bank / current liabilities
(Year 2010-2011) = 9454306.00 + 8679.67/360162085.27
= 9462985.67/360162085.27

= 0.026: 1
(Year 2009-2010) = 16220352/197705017

=0.082:1

Solvency ratio This ratio highlights upon the long-term solvency of the
concerned and is ascertained by the formula
Solvency ratio = Total assets / Total liabilities
(Year 2010-2011) = 1329257685.72/979021639.01
= 1.358

(Year 2009-2010) = 973913721/724150419.01

soundness of long-term financial policies of the company. It is also known as
external and internal equity ratio. This ratio establishes the relationship
between the internal equities and external equities. If this ratio is 1:1, the
long-term financial position of any business concern is considered
satisfactory. If this ratio is lower than 1:1, it means that outside liabilities are

lower than shareholders fund and in this case financial position will be
considered more good and satisfactory.

Debt equity ratio

= long term debt / shareholders funds
