Executive Summary
Introduction: One of the important areas in the day-to-day management of the affairs of a firm is the management of Working Capital. Working Capital is used for financing day-to-day business operations. An organization whether it is manufacturing or trading, requires adequate funds for acquiring the stock of materials, marketable securities, stores materials etc., apart from land, building, machinery furniture etc. The funds invested in current assets such as, stock of materials work in process, investments, bills receivables, debtors, bank balance etc., is known as Working Capital. Success or otherwise of any enterprise depends upon efficient management of working capital and hence, working capital is often described as life-blood of business In simple terms, all current assets used in daily operations represent working capital. Current assets are cash or near cash resources. Working Capital is also known as Circulating or revolving capital, because the current assets are of nature of circulation. They keep on moving from one form to another. For example, cash is used for purchasing merchandise which then takes the form of stock-in-trade or inventories, when the inventories are sold out cash or debtors are created, when debtors are collected cash is accumulated and this process continues. Thus, its flow is circular in nature. In, accounting Working Capital is taken to mean the difference between current assets and current liabilities.

INDUSTRY PROFILE
Indian Auto Components Industry:
The Indian auto ancillary industry has come a long way since it had its small beginnings in the 1940s. If the evolution of the industry is traced in India, it can be classified into three distinct phases namely: Period prior to the entry of Maruti Udhyog Ltd, period after the entry of Maruti Udhyog Ltd and Period post Liberalization. The period prior to the entry of Maruti Udhyog Ltd was characterized by small number of auto majors like Hindustan Motors, Premier Automobiles, Telco, Bajaj, Mahindra & Mahindra, low technology and assured business for most of the auto component manufacturers. The entry of Maruti in the 1980s marked the beginning of the second phase of the industry. The auto ancillary industry in the country really showed a spurt in growth during this period. This period witnessed the emergence of a new generation of auto ancillary manufacturers who were required to meet the stringent quality standard of Marutis Korean collaborator Suzuki of Japan. The good performance of Maruti resulted in an upswing for the domestic auto ancillary industry. It was during this period that auto components from India began to be exported. The entry of foreign automobile manufactures ranging from Mercedes Benz, Ford and General Motors to Daewoo following the government liberalizing the foreign investment limits saw the beginning of the third phase of the evolution of the industry. The auto ancillary industry witnessed huge capacity expansions and modernization initiatives in the post liberalization period. Technological collaborations and equity partnerships with world Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 8
leaders in auto components became a common affair. However, the global automobile majors soon realized the folly of their estimations in India. The market did not seem to be as big as it appeared to be. Hence, sales targets went away. The tough competitive scenario saw a lot of consolidation in the industry and it still continues unabated.
Global Scenario;
Prior to 2000, it had been almost ten years since TTS (torq transfer systems) had been awarded any new transfer case business for the European market (Land Rover). Then concerted efforts were made to re-enter that market & attain new business with improved technologies such as high output transfer cases & Torsen Torque Differential technology which broadens the industries offering in the transfer case market place. In the global Scenario of transfer case industry there are significant differences between the American & European Markets. While the American car-buyer is primarily interested in traction & larger, more powerful vehicles, the European driver is more interested in vehicle handling, stability & safety. Therefore for their home markets, European auto makers are producing smaller, front wheel drive vehicles. But as the American car buyers are more interested in powerful engines the automakers are offering a wide range of SUVs for which the Torq transfer System ( TTS) is particularly well suited making the 2 wheel drive into 4 wheel drive ( 4 x 4 ). The vehicles tend to be technically more sophisticated creating new market potential for TTS. Borg Warner & TTS (Torq Transfer Systems) The Company engineers work closely with the Drivetrain group in engineering strategy & provide many opportunities for collaboration & learning of TTS. TTS engineers frequently make customer presentations along with colleagues from TS. This collaboration allows the Company to talk about the companys all-wheel drive products while TS engineers present other Drive train technologies that Borg Warner has to offer, including the very successful Dual Clutch Technology, which is generating much attention in Global Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 9
markets.Other Borg Warner business groups have helped to establish a great reputation for Borg Warner at the Global level. The companys commitment to new technologies & new products for the automakers will help TTS become a future Product Leader in Auto industry.

McKinseys 7S Framework
The 7S model is better known as McKinseys 7-S. This is because two persons who developed this model, Tom Peters & Robert Waterman, have been consultants to McKinsey & Co, at that time they published their 7-S model in their article Structure in not organization ( 1980 ) & in their book The Art of Japanese Management (1981) In search of Excellence ( 1982). The model starts on the precise that an organization is not just structure, but consist of 7 elements: Strategy, Structure, System, Style, Staff, Skill and Shared values. Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 20
Strategy :
changes in its external environment. Structure : Basis for specialization & coordination influenced primarily by
strategy & by organization size and diversity. Systems : Structure. Style : The culture of the organization consists of 2 components:enduring features of organization 21 Formal and informal procedures that support the strategy and
o Organization Culture: The dominant values and norms which develop over time & become relatively Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com
they say; how do a companies managers spend time? What are they
o Symbolism:
The
creation
and
maintenance
(or
sometimes
deconstruction) of meaning is a fundamental responsibility of mangers. Staff : The people / human resource management processes use to
develop mangers socialization processes, ways of shaping basic values of management cadre, ways of introducing young recruits to the Co., ways of helping to manage the career of employees. Skills : The distinctive competencies what the company does best, ways
Shared values : Guiding concepts, fundamental ideas around which a business is built must be simple , usually stated at abstract level, have great meaning inside the organization even though outsiders may not see to understand them. The 7-S model is a valuable tool to initiate change processes & to give them direction. A helpful application is to determine the current state of each element and to compare this with the ideal state. Based on this its possible to develop action plan to achieve the intended state.

Hence there is a need for Working Capital in the form of current assets to sustain sales activity during that period.
sales, as the sales do not convert into cash instantaneously because of time gap between the sale of goods and actual receipt in cash. Hence there is a need for Working Capital in the form of current assets to sustain sales activity during that period.
The need for Working Capital arises for following reasons: To purchase raw-materials, spare parts and other components To pay wages and salaries and other charges To meet over-head expenses To pay selling and distribution expenses To grant credit facility to customers To hold adequate stock of raw-materials finished goods, spare parts, etc. To provide for Contingencies.
1. Gross Working Capital 2. Net Working Capital 3. Permanent Working Capital 4. Temporary or Fluctuating Working Capital 5. Negative Working Capital
1. Gross Working Capital: The gross working capital consists of total current assets. It provides the correct amount of working capital required at the right time. In financial management, the major thrust is upon the management of current assets. It tries to maximize return on investment by avoiding two extremes. Excessive investment in current assets simply reduces the profitability of an enterprise, since, the investment becomes idle. Whereas, inadequate working capital effects the solvency of the company negatively. 2. Net Working Capital: Net working capital is defined as the difference between current assets and current liabilities. A company has to give more importance to liquidity, because inability to pay short-term creditors may prove Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 56
to be dangerous to the organization. Current assets should be sufficiently above the current liabilities low liquidity is harmful to the solvency of the company. 3. Permanent Working Capital: It refers to the current assets that are required to be maintained continuously throughout the year to carry on the business operations. In other words, it represents that part of the working capital which remains permanent in the business, in one form or the other in the same way as the fixed assets. For e.g. Cash or bank balance, stock-intrade to be maintained as minimum to carry on business operations at any time. 4. Temporary or Fluctuating Working Capital: It refers to the additional current assets required to meet the changing demands of an industrial or business enterprise caused by seasonal change. During peak season, a company requires additional funds to hold extra stock of goods. Thus, fluctuating working capital is not permanently locked up unlike the fixed working capital. It varies according to the changes in the volume of business caused by seasonal changes or any other factors. 5. Negative Working Capital: It refers to the deficit working capital. When the current liabilities exceed the current assets it is known as negative working capital. Under this situation a firm actually suffers from the shortage of funds and is a sign of unhealthy developments in business. It results in damage to the reputation of a concern. Current Assets Current assets are those assets, which in the normal course of business, convertible into cash within a short period of time i.e. an accounting year (or operating cycle) Components of Current Assets: Stock of materials in trade and in transit Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 57
Stores and spare parts Bills of exchange Loans and advances Deposits Cash and Bank bal Investment in Govt. and other securities Amount due from subsidiary Companies etc. Prepaid expenses Outstanding Incomes. Current Liabilities Current Liabilities include all the obligations of the concern that are maturing within an accounting year. Components of Current Liabilities: Sundry Creditors. Loans from bank & others Provision for taxation, dividend etc. Liabilities towards gratuity etc Outstanding expenses Incomes received in advance. Operating Cycle of Working Capital Operating cycle refers to the length of time involved between the sales & their actual realization in cash.

Interpretation:
The working capital of the company should be always positive. It should not be negative. In the years 2003-04 and 2004-05, DIPL had a negative working capital which is not a favorable position to the company. It clearly shows that DIPL was a newly established company. So it was facing shortage of working capital in initial years, so it had to increase its working capital to stand in the business world. Then again in the year 2005-06, 2006-07 and 2007-08 DIPLs net working capital has increased to Rs.9,78,370.64, Rs9,86,858.40 and Rs35,02,104.84 which is a very positive sign of prosperity and it will help DIPL to sustain its expansion programmes.

Concept:
ability to meet short term obligations. This ratio is also known as Working Capital ratio. The current ratio is the ratio of total current assets to total current liabilities. Current Assets Current Ratio = Current Liabilities
Table 8: Current Ratio Interpretation: The Current Ratio was 0.95 for 2003-04 and decreased to 0.91 in the year 2004-05 and for 2005-06 the ratio increased to 1.43.and then decreased to1.39 in the year 2006-07 and for 2007-08 the ratio increased to 3.76. The current ratio has met the standard of 2:1 ratio and hence it can be said that there is enough working capital to meet the current liabilities. Hence it can be noted that steps have been taken to increase the current ratio in the previous financial years .so that enough working capital is available to meet the current obligation. Thus the liquidity position, as calculated by the current ratio, is improved in the financial year 2007-08.

Interpretation: The absolute liquidity ratio was 0.021 for 2003-04 and decreased to 0.015 in the year 2004-05 and for the year 2005-06 the ratio increased to 0.102 and then in 2006-07 and 2007-08 the ratio decreased to 0.016 and 0.010 respectively. The absolute liquidity ratio is below the standard of 0.5:1. It shows that the liquidity position of the concern is not good. Hence adequate cash balance need to be maintained by the company.

Table 10: Working Capital Turnover Ratio Interpretation: The working capital turnover ratio was negative for the years 2003-04 and 2004-05. in the year 2005-06 and 2006-07 it has increased to 12.5 times and 13.5 times respectively. But in the year 2007-08 it has considerably decreased to 4.89 times. Working capital turnover is the ability to generate sales per rupee of working capital.

For year 2005-06, 2006-07 the ratio has improved to12.5 times and 13-5 times But in the year 2007-08 it has decreased to 4.89 times which shows that the organization is not able to utilize its working capital full.

Table 11: Debtors Turnover Ratio Interpretation: The debtors turnover ratio was very less for the year 2003-04 at 2.86 times, it has increased to 5.12 and 6.28 times in the years 2004-05 and 200506. subsequently in the year 2006-07 it has decreased to 5.49 times. Again the debtors turn over ratio has increased 5.91 times in the year 2007-08. This shows that the company is making all the efforts to speed up the collection process.

No. of days in a year Debtors Conversion Period = Debtors turnover Ratio Year 2003-04 2004-05 2005-06 2006-07 2007-08 Interpretation: The debtors conversion period was 128 days in the year 2003-04 and over the years it is improving by reducing debtors conversion period days it has significantly reduced from 128 days in the year 2003-04 to just 62 days in the current year 2007-08. The standard period of credit allowed is 30 days, if it is less than the standard it indicates the credit collection is efficient and if it is more, it indicates that its credit collection is inefficient. But in the case of DIPL, even though the debtors conversion period is falling short of the standard period. The company has shown that it is making all the efforts to speed up the collection period.

Ratio 3.85 times 2.82 times 4.99 times 4.64 times 7.26 times
Interpretation: The creditors turnover ratio was 3.85 times in the year 2003-04 and then Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com 76
decreased to 2.82 times in the year 2004-05. In the year 2005-06 it increased to 4.99 times. Subsequently in the current financial year 2007-08 it has increased to 7.26 times. Generally lower the ratio better is the liquidity position of the firm and vice versa. But lower ratio also implies lesser discount facilities availed or higher prices paid for the goods purchased on credit. The creditors turnover ratio is important tool of analysis as a firm can reduce its requirement of current assets by relying on suppliers credit. From the above table it can be known that that the creditors turnover ratio in the current financial year 2007-08 is increased considerably over the previous year and hence the companys liquidity position is not good in current years.
