DIRECTORS REPORT
MR.B. MUTHURAMAN, THE MANAGING DIRECTOR. TATA STEEL LTD.
Tata Steel turned hundred in 2007-08 a hundred years of value creation for its stakeholders, of nation building, of service to society and of customer care. The sustained success of Tata Steel over one hundred years has been due to its empowered, energetic and enthused employees, its oneness with the society, its adaptability to changes in the external environment and its financial prudence. Ever since 1991, freed from the shackles of administered control which had curbed competitiveness, innovation and growth for several decades, Tata Steel began a journey. The years 1991 to 2000 was a period of self renewal for Tata Steel - scrapping obsolete equipment and technology and bringing in new technology and equipment, initiating several improvement projects, severe cost control measures, initiating IT support systems for decision making, institutionalisation of better market and customer focus and sowing the seeds of changing mindsets. With all these efforts, Tata Steel, by the year
2001, had become one of the lowest cost producers of steel in the world and began to be recognised in the global steel industry. We had earned the right to grow. The years 2000 to 2005 were years of intense strategic thinking about the companys future, formulating and initiating plans for the companys organic growth in Jamshedpur and initiation of greenfield projects in India - in the realisation of a strong demand growth in India and the beginnings of the larger role that Tata Steel could play in the global stage. Business processes were further strengthened, continuous improvements became embedded into the day to day work style, marketing initiatives were further strengthened in terms of branding and getting into customer value management and a systematic retail value management. For retail products, Tata Steel set up a unique distribution system, unknown in India till then. Tata Steels first overseas acquisition, that of NatSteel, based in Singapore, took place in 2004. So did the first overseas joint venture for coking coal in Australia. These were part of the strategic plan detailed out during 20002004. Memoranda of Understanding with the State Governments of Orissa, Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand for Greenfield steel plants in these states were signed during 2004 and 2005. By 2005, Tata Steel was well on its journey. The acquisition of Millennium Steel in Thailand was a step in that journey. So were the setting up of Tata BlueScope Steel Ltd. to venture downstream into construction solutions and the formation of the joint venture with NYK for ocean logistics. The Corus acquisition, consummated on 3rd April 2007 was a major milestone in Tata Steels journey of becoming global. With this, Tata Steel, with a crude steelmaking capacity of 28.1 million tonnes per annum became the sixth largest steel company in the world with presence in several countries across continents. Currently, the global steel industry is going through unprecedented times. The steel demand is strong with over
6% growth year on year over the last seven years unseen in the last several decades, primarily driven by robust growth in China, India, South East Asia, Middle East, Russia and Brazil. The iron ore and coking coal prices are at a record high both due to insufficient capacity creation for these and the heavy consolidation of minerals companies. Oil prices and ocean freight rates are at an all time high. The combined effect of all these have driven steel prices to a level higher than ever before though there is increasing pressure on margins of steel companies due to very high input costs.

INTRODUCTION TO FINANCE
Finance is one of the major functional areas of management function of finance area is the part at economic activity. Finance is the life blood of business. Finance is the process of organization in which there is the flow of funds so that business can carry out it objective in the efficient manner.
The scope of financial management that is the views about finance functions has undergone remarkable changes over time. Till 1950, finance functions was regarded as the function of only raising finance for business, and consequently the discussion centered round different sources of finance, financial institutions and financial documents etc, since last 30-40 years, however an effective and efficient utilization of finance has also been considered as an important function of financial management. In the words of Husbund and Dockey Finance may be said to be the circulatory system of the economic body making possible the needed co-operation between many units of activity.
MEANING OF FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT

In simple words, financial management means raising of adequate funds at the minimum cost and using them effectively in business. In other words, financial management is concerned with the financial problem of the business
organization. It is with the problems of raising finance to establish, expand and modernize business unit, the problems of providing fixed and working capital, the problem of distribution of income etc. Hoagland says, Financial management is concerned mainly with such matters as, how a business corporation raises its finance and how it makes use of it. According to Soloman, Financial management its concerned with the efficient use of an important economic resource, namely, capital funds. Thus, financial management does not stop at procuring the required finance. It has also to see that it is effectively utilized in business. It is concerned with maintaining adequate funds on hand to meet the expenses of both revenue and capital nature. It has to manage the finances in such a way that the goal of business, say, profit maximization, is realized.
UTILITIES OF FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
Needless to say that without adequate finance, no business can succeed. It is easy to imagine the plight of the management which due to insufficiency of finance cannot make payment for raw materials and wages on time. It is not possible to avail of the opportunities if adequate finance is not available. The significance of financial management will be clear from the following points. Success of promotion Smooth running of the enterprise Finance for expansion Cash planning
FINANCE FUNCTION
The principal contents of the modern approach to financial management can be said to be. How large should an enterprise be, and how fast should it grow? In what form should it hold assets? What should be the composition of its liabilities? These three questions posed above cover between them the major financial problems of a firm. In other words, finance according to the new approach is concerned with the solution of three major problems relating to the question of investment, financing and dividend decisions. This financial management in the modern sense of the term can be categories into three major decisions as function of finance. The investment decision The finance decision The dividend policy decision INVESTMENT DECISION Investment decision is a long term financial decision. It is concerned with allocation of capital. It has to invest the funds in such a way that it would be beneficial for the organization. The assets, which can be acquired, fall into two broad groups:-1i) long term assets, which yield a return over a period of time in future. Ii) Short-term assets or current assets, which on the normal course of the business are convertible into cash without diminution in value usually with in a year. The first category of assets is known as working capital
budgeting. This aspect of financial decision making with references to current assets of short-term assets is known as working capital management. Investment decisions are considered to be risky decision because uncertainly plays an important role in these decisions. FINANCE DECISION The second major decision involved in financial management is financing decision. The investment decision is more important compared to finance decision. The concern of the financing decision is with the financing mix or capital structure of average. The term capital structure refers to the proportion of the sources to finance the investment requirements i.e. whether entire capital required should be raised by equity shares or the aspects of the financial decision. The theory of capital structure between equity and borrowed capital has to be decided. There are two ways of talking financial decisions. First the theory of capital structure, which shows the theoretical relationship between the employment of debt and the return to the shareholders as also the financial risk. A proper balance between debt and equity to ensure a trade off between and return to the shareholder is necessary for any capital structure. The second aspect of the financial decision is the determination of an appropriated capital structure. Thus the finance decision is concerned with major two aspects namely capital structure and its decision. DIVIDEND POLICY DECISION It is also one of the most important financial decisions to be taken by the financial managers. This decision is concerned with the divisible profits of the company. a. They can be distributed to the shareholders in the form of dividend. b. They can be retained in the business.
This decision is to be taken after taking into consideration the psychology of the investors who wish to get a better yield on their investment. This decision helps in deciding as to which course should be followed depending on the dividend pay-out ratio i.e. what proportion of net profits should be paid to the shareholders. The final decision will depend upon the preference of the shareholders and investments opportunities available.

CLASSIFICATION OF RATIOS
MEANING OF RATIO ANALYSIS :One of the most important method of analysis of financial statement is ratio analysis. Ratio analysis is a numerical figure which is used to find out relationship between different statements, single statement carries no meaning.
Ratio is a term, which establishes the relationship between two figures. It is relationship of one amount to another amount. It is numerator and denominator. It can be expressed as a simple fraction, decimal fraction or percentage. The ratio can be expressed as: PURE RATIO PERCENTAGE RATIO TIMES RATIO 1 2 3 Pure ratio is expressed as 2:1. Percentage ratio is expressed as % (percentage) Times ratio is expressed as TIMES.
Any of these ratios can be adopted for studies depending upon the characteristic of the items. For E.g.: Liquidity ratio is always expressed in pure form. A ratio has to assess the performance and financial condition of an organization. It is very important tool in financial analysis and controlling. It facilitates the top management to pay sound managerial decision
CLASSIFICATION OF RATIO
On the basis of objectives and purposes ratio are classified as under: 1. 2. 3. 4. LIQUIDITY RATIO PROFIRABILITY RATIO LEVERAGE RATIO ACTIVITY / EFFICINCY RATIO
5. COVERAGE RATIO. LIQUIDITY RATIO These ratios measure the firms ability to meet short term obligation as well as they become due. This ratio shows short term financing solvency of the firm. Usually following ratios are calculated: # Current Ratio # Quick Ratio PROFITABILITY RATIO This ratio measures managements overall effectiveness as shown by the returns generated on sales and investment usually three types of profitability ratios are calculated. The various types of profitability ratios are:
PROFITABILITY RATIO IN RELATION TO SALES TO SALES IN RELATION TO EQ.SHARE HOLDERS FUND
IN RELATION TO INVESTMENT
1.
IN RELATION TO SALES # Gross Profit Ratio # Net Profit Ratio 2.IN RELATION TO INVEST.
# Return on total Assets # Return on Capital Employed # Return on Equity 3.IN RELATION TO EQ. SH. HOLDERS FUNDS # Return on Equity Share Holders Fund # Earning Per Share # Dividend Per Share # Price Earning Ratio LEVERAGE RATIO This ratio shows the long term financial solvency that measures the enterprise's ability to pay the interest and to repay the capital amount on maturity or in pre-determined installments at due dates. Usually, the following ratios are calculated to judge the long term financial solvency of the firm. # Dept Equity ratio # Proprietary ratio # Capital gearing ratio # Long term funds to fixed assets ratio
ACTIVITY / EFFICIENCY RATIO This ratio measures the effectiveness with which a firm uses its available resources. This ratio is also called efficiency ratio or turnover ratio. Since they indicate the
speed with which the resources are being turned into sales. Usually the following turnover ratios are calculated:
# Stock Turnover Ratio # Debtors Turnover Ratio # Debt Collection Period # Creditors Turnover Ratio # Debt Payment Period OR Creditors Velocity # Working Capital Turnover Ratio # Book Value Per Share # Total Assets Turnover Ratio
IMPORTANCE OF RATIO ANALYSIS

Importance of Ratios:
In application to studying the rupee amount shown in the financial statements, relationships between different items may be established by computing various ratios. The relation between two related items of financial statement is known as Ratio. A ratio is thus, one number expressed in terms of other Ratios are particularly useful in comparing one years performance with other years, as well as one companys performance with anothers. In many cases the average ratios relating to companies in particular industries are available, and an individual companys ratio may be compared with such an average. Ratios help to make qualitative judgments depending upon the calculations made which are quantitative judgments. The ratio analysis involves comparison for a useful interpretation of the financial statements. A single ratio in itself does not indicate favorable or unfavorable condition. It should be compare with some standard. Standard of comparison may decided by the company or firm itself.
IMPORTANCE/UTILITY:
1) Profitability:
Useful information about the trend of profitability is available from profitability ratios. The gross profit ratio, net profit ratio of return on investment give a good idea of the profitability of business. On the basis of these ratios, investors get an idea about the overall efficiency of business, the management gets an idea about the efficiency of managers and bank as well as other creditors draws useful conclusions about repaying capacity of the borrowers. 2) Liquidity: In fact, the use of ratios was made initially to ascertain the liquidity of business. The current
ratio, liquid ratio and acid test ratio will tell whether the business will be able to meet its current liabilities as and when they mature. Banks and other leaders will be able to conclude from these ratios whether the firm will be able to pay regularly the interest & loan installments.
3) Efficiency:
The turnover ratios are excellent guides to measure the efficiency of managers. E.g. the stock turnover will indicate how efficiently the sale is being made, the debtors turnover will indicate the efficiency of collection department and assets turnover shows the efficiency with which the assets are used in business. All such ratios related to sales present a good picture of the success or otherwise of the business.
4) Inter firm comparison:
The absolute ratios of a firm are not of much use, unless they are compared with similar ratios of other firms belonging to the same industry. This is interring firm comparison, which shows the strength and weakness of the firm as compared to other firms and will indicate corrective measures.
5) Indicate trend: The ratios of the last three to five years will indicate the trend in the respective fields. For example, the current ratios of a firm are lower than the industry average, but if the ratios of last five years show an improving trend, it is an encouraging trend. Reverse may also be true. A particular ratio of a company for one year may compare favorably with industry average but, of its
trend shows a deteriorating position, if is not desirable. Only ratio analysis will provide this information.
6) Useful for Budgetary Control:
Regular budgetary reports are prepared in a business where the system of budgetary control is in use. If various ratios are presented in these reports, if will give a fairly good idea about various aspect of financial position. 7) Useful for Decision making: Ratio guide the management in making some of the importation show an unsatisfactory position, the management may decide to get additional liquid funds. Even for capital expenditure decisions, the ratio of return on investment will guide the management can be judged on the basis and efficiency of each department can thus be determined.
LIMITATIONS OF RATIO ANALYSIS

Every coin has two sides and therefore ratio analysis also has certain limitations. The major limitations are as follows. 1) Historical Analysis: Ratio analysis is basically historical in nature since the financial statements on the basis of which these ratios are established, are historical in nature unless the ratio analysis is based on the projected financial statements prepared to plan the future. 2) Not Free From Bias: In many circumstances, the accountant has to make a choice out of various alternatives available. E.g. Method of depreciation, method of valuation of inventory, etc. since the subjectivity is inherent in the personal Judgment. The financial statements are therefore not free from bias. Thus, ratios analysis is also not free from bias 3) Quantitative analysis and not quality analysis : The ratio analysis being quantitative in nature ignores the qualitative factors which in certain cases may overtake the quantitative factors. For instance, when conducting the analysis of a customer seeking credit, he deserve to be granted the credit on the basis of the financial statements he has submitted but in reality his character and his credit worthiness may be doubtful. 4) Price level changes to be considered :
A ratio can be accurately interpreted only if the effect of change in prices which may have taken place, is adjusted in the figures used in the ratio, for example, Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio would not give a brighter picture than that justified by the circumstances unless the fixed assets are revalued at their replacement costs.
1. LIQUIDITY RATIO :
The ratio measures the firms ability to meet short term obligations as and when they become due. These ratios show the short term financial solvency of the firm usually the following two ratios are calculated for this purpose. Current ratio Liquid ratio or Quick ratio.
CURRENT RATIO:
MEANING : This ratio establishes a relationship between current asserts and current liabilities. The objective of computing this ratio is to measure the ability of the firm and meet its short term obligation and reflect the short term financial strength or solvency of a firm in other words the objective is to measure the safely margin available for short term creditors.
OBJECTIVE :
COMPONENTS :
There are two components of this ratio which are as under:
A. Current assets:
Current assets means the assets which can be convert into cash within a shorter period of time they are as under: Cash balance, Marketable securities, Bills receivables, Prepaid expenses, Income occurred but that due, Advance payment of tax, Bank balance, Debtors (less provision), All types of stocks (w.i.p, r.m, finish goods), Incomes due, but not received.
B.
CURRENT LAIBILITIES:
It means the liabilities which are expected to be measured within shorter period of time and include the following: Creditors, Bills payable, Short term loans and advances, Provision for taxation, Bank overdraft, Income received in advance,
Unclaimed dividend.

INTERPRITATION:
An idle total assets turnover ratio is 2:1 i.e. sales are twice the value of total assets. a lower ratio then his will signify that the assets arent utilized properly, while a higher ratio may lead to over trading. Here, in the year 2005-06 the ratio is 1.53 times which is increased 1.59 times the year 2006-07 and decreased 1.56 times ratio in the 2007-08 year.
BOOK VALUE PER SHARE: MEANING :
This ratio establishes a relationship between share capital and reserve andreserve and surplus with no. of shares. The objective for calculating this ratio is to measure the preparation of share capital and reserve and surplus with no. of equity shares.
OBJECTIVE :
COMPONENTS :
There are two components of this ratio which are as under: Share capital and reserve and surplus No. of equity shares.
CALCULATION :
This ratio calculated is always express as an absolute figure in the firm of formula this ratio can be expressed as under:-
BOOK VALUE PER SHARE = EQUITY SHARE CAPITAL + RESERVE AND SURPLUS NO OF EQUITY SHARE 2005-06 = 9755.3 = 176.26 55.347 2006-07 = 14096.15 58.047 2007-08 = 27300.73 75.67 Year Eq.share capital + Res & surplus No. of eq.share Book value per Share ratio = 242.84

INTERPRETATION :
The interest coverage ratio is very important from lenders point of view, it gives an idea of the no. of covered by 6 to 7 times. A high ratio assures the lenders a regular interest income but the weakness of the ratio is that the financial manager may increase the funds from borrowed capital. Here, interest coverage ratio shows fluctuating. Its not good for company. The interest coverage ratio is decrease ratio decreases 2005-06 to 2007-08.
COMMON SIZE STATEMENTS

Financial statements when read with absolute figures are not easily understandable some times they even misleads. Therefore it is necessary that figures reported in the statement should be converted into percentage some common size base. In the Profit & Loss account net sales is assumed to be equal to 100 and other figures are expected as percentage of sales. Similarly in the balance sheet the total of assets or liabilities is to be taken as 100 and all the other figures are expected as percentage of these total. This type of analysis is also called vertical analyses thus statement prepared in the form of percentage is called as common size statement. There are two types of common size statement: Common size profit & loss account Common size balance sheet COMMON SIZE BALANCE SHEET Balance sheet cannot be said as account but it is said to be as a financial statement of the company. A business is interested in knowing financial position of the business, i.e. his liabilities and his assets as well as capital, on a particular day. Balance sheet is a statement showing the financial position of the business, which is prepared only once in a year.
Balance sheet may be described as a statement which reports the financial condition of an entity as of one moment of time. Balance sheet is also known as a status report. Share holders and creditors can get an idea about the soundness or otherwise of the financial position of the business from time to time. In the balance sheet, the total assets are taken as 100 and all items presented of total assets. The common size balance sheet shows the percentage of each asset to the total assets as well as the percentage of each liabilities to the total liabilities and capital. Such percentage gives only the change in proportional of one item to one main item sales or total assets. But it fails to indicate whether the financial position or detracting COMMON SIZE BALANCE SHEET FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2006-2007-2008 [RS. in CRORES]

COMMENTS
Common size statement is prepared & which all the items are compared with any common item which is significant for instance in balance sheet total assets may be taken as 100 and all other items in this statement is compared in total assets. SOURCES OF FUNDS: The share capital was 3.79% in 2005-06 which decreased in in2006-07 and reached to 2.84%. but in 2007-08 it increased and reached to 13.17% The reserves and surplus was 62.95% in 2005-06 and decreased in 2006 and reached to 52.23%. then it further decreased to 44.82%
The tax liability was 17.21% in 2005 it increased in 20076 and reached to 37.68 where a sit further increased to 38.28% in 2007-08. Provision for employee separation was 6.55% which decreased in 2006 and reached to 2.93%. where it further decreased in 2007-08. APPLICATION OF FUNDS: The Fixed assets is showing decreases trend year by year. The investments is also decreases year by year. the inventory is also decreases from 11.85% in 2005 to 4.77% in year 2007-08 Cash and bank is increasing in 2006-07 but after that it is declining.
The plus point is that the current liabilities is declining in 2006-07 and reached to 19.40% and reached to 13.76%. in 2007-08 it is declining. The Provisions are in increasing trend.
The Miscellanies expenses is showing declining rate.
COMMON SIZE PROFIT & LOSS A/C This method so far discussed does not provide any common base with which all items in each item are compared with one common item, which is significant. Profit and loss account is complete mirror of working of a business. Profit and loss accounts give a true and fair view the profit or loss of the company for the financial yield. In the common size income statement the sales as 100 and all individual items of expenses and incomes are shown as percentage of sales. Such percentage of over 3 to 5 years will also suggest the change, if they, in the relative proportion of individual items or expenses of incomes as compared to sales. The common size statement gives useful proportion of each component to the total. But they alone are not of much use, as they do not give information about the trends of individual items from year to year. They must be used as long with trend percentage and individual ratios based on these two statements. Profit and loss account shows either profit or loss made in the business during the year. It shows the changes in business which has taken place and clarifies the effects of such changes
