BANK BS ANALYSIS
A bank is very different as compared to a
manufacturing or services business. This is
also why banks are studied separately along
with typical parameters and ratios which you
might not see in a company from outside the
banking and non-banking financial company
(NBFC) sector.

RATIO ANALYSIS
Unlike in the past when security was considered to
be sufficient consideration for banks and financial
institutions to grant loans and advances, nowadays
the entire lending is need-based and the emphasis is
on the financial viability of a proposal and not only
on security alone. Ratio analysis and other
quantitative techniques facilitate assessment of this
risk.

The CASA deposits add up to around 43% of their total deposits.

Cash is self explanatory.

SLR stands for Statutory Liquidity Ratio
prescribed by RBI. A bank is expected to hold
a certain ratio (presently 21.5%) of their Net
Demand and Time Liabilities (NDTL) in
approved securities like government
securities, cash or gold. RIDF stands for
Rural Infrastructure Development Fund is set
up by the GoI. Banks are expected to deploy
money towards the RIDF to the extent they
lend less to mandated lending requirements.

Advances This is the most important head

on the asset side. Banks report the breakup
of their loan book by borrower type (retail,
small and medium enterprises (SME) and
large corporates). They also usually report
the sector-wise breakup of their loan book.
Fixed assets broadly covers the money
spent to develop the banks branch
network and corporate offices.

Net worth is the shareholders capital in the

bank plus reserves.
Deposits is a key item in the liabilities. This is
part of the core business of intermediation of
capital borrow from depositors and lend to
borrowers. Deposits are broadly of three
kinds. SB, CA (CASA)& FDs
Borrowings are made up of bonds,
debentures and certificates of deposit where
the bank borrows money of varying tenor.
The CASA deposits add up to what % of their
total deposits ?

NPAs are advances made by the bank on

which borrowers are not paying interest
payments or principal repayments on time.
The RBI has standards for NPA classification
that dictate when a standard bank loan
becomes an NPA.
read an
address by Dr. K. C. Chakrabarty, Deputy G
overnor, Reserve Bank of India at BANCON 2
013
.

Deposits and Borrowings together and

get a figure of Rs. 4544 cr.
Divide this by the Net Worth of Rs. 731
cr and we get a D/E ratio of 6.2.
High Leverage means high risk of
eroding net worth when there are NPAs

Basel reforms stipulate that a bank should

maintain adequate capital against its
assets. This is because banks are
systemically important institutions. The
regulator places different types of assets in
different buckets depending on how risky
they are. Different buckets have different
risk weights to quantify the risk. Capital
adequacy ratio (CAR) is total capital divided
by total risk weighted assets. This works out
to 16.50% as of September 2013. Min 9%

In ICICI Banks case, the fee income to

operating income (69.01 divided by
222.12) is 37% and is rising.
The net interest income to operating
income (138.66 divided by 222.12) is
59%

The biggest expense is salaries to

employees. Of Rs. 90 bn operating expense,
Rs. 38 bn is towards employees. Rent, taxes
and lighting is around Rs. 7 bn and repairs
and maintenance is also around Rs. 7 bn.
the operating expenses (Rs. 90 bn) divided
by the net operating income (Rs. 222 bn)
yield a cost to income ratio of 40%. In the
earlier year this was around 43%.

This is another important metric to track.

This assumes much more importance
especially in times of economic stress
when bad loans start rising.
Provisions are mandatory & require the
bank to keep aside some of their income
against bad loans. For RBI master

Its a tool which enables the banker or

lender to arrive at the following factors :
Liquidity position
Profitability
Solvency
Financial Stability
Quality of the Management
Safety & Security of the loans & advances
to be or already been provided

Before looking at the ratios there are a number of cautionary

points concerning their use that need to be identified :
a.The dates and duration of the financial statements being
compared should be the same. If not, the effects of
seasonality may cause erroneous conclusions to be drawn.
b.The accounts to be compared should have been prepared
on the same bases. Different treatment of stocks or
depreciations or asset valuations will distort the results.
c.In order to judge the overall performance of the firm a group
of ratios, as opposed to just one or two should be used. In
order to identify trends at least three years of ratios are
normally required.

The utility of ratio analysis will get further

enhanced if following comparison is
possible.
1.Between the borrower and its competitor
2.Between the borrower and the best
enterprise in the industry
3.Between the borrower and the average
performance in the industry
4.Between the borrower and the global
average

As

Percentage - such as 25% or 50% . For

example if net profit is Rs.25,000/- and the sales

is Rs.1,00,000/- then the net profit can be said to
be 25% of the sales.
As Proportion
- The above figures may be
expressed in terms of the relationship between
net profit to sales as 1 : 4.
As Pure Number /Times - The same can also
be expressed in an alternatively way such as the
sale is 4 times of the net profit or profit is 1/4 th of
the sales.

1.

Current Ratio : It is the relationship between the

current assets and current liabilities of a concern.
Current Ratio = Current Assets/Current
Liabilities
If the Current Assets and Current Liabilities of a concern
are Rs.4,00,000 and Rs.2,00,000 respectively, then the
Current Ratio will be : Rs.4,00,000/Rs.2,00,000 = 2 : 1
The ideal Current Ratio preferred by Banks is
1.33 : 1

2.

Net Working Capital : This is worked out as surplus

of Long Term Sources over Long Tern Uses, alternatively
it is the difference of Current Assets and Current
Liabilities.
NWC = Current Assets Current Liabilities

Current Assets : Raw Material, Stores, Spares, Work-in Progress. Finished

Goods, Debtors, Bills Receivables, Cash.
Current Liabilities : Sundry Creditors, Installments of Term Loan, DPG etc.
payable within one year and other liabilities payable within one year.
This ratio must be at least 1.33 : 1 to ensure minimum margin of 25% of current
assets as margin from long term sources.
Current Ratio measures short term liquidity of the concern and its ability to
meet its short term obligations within a time span of a year.
It shows the liquidity position of the enterprise and its ability to meet current
obligations in time.
Higher ratio may be good from the point of view of creditors. In the long run very
high current ratio may affect profitability ( e.g. high inventory carrying cost)
Shows the liquidity at a particular point of time. The position can change
immediately after that date. So trend of the current ratio over the years to be
analyzed.
Current Ratio is to be studied with the changes of NWC. It is also necessary to
look at this ratio along with the Debt-Equity ratio.

3. ACID TEST or QUICK RATIO : It is the ratio between

Quick Current Assets and Current Liabilities. The should be at
least equal to 1.
Quick Current Assets : Cash/Bank Balances + Receivables upto 6
months + Quickly realizable securities such as Govt. Securities or
quickly marketable/quoted shares and Bank Fixed Deposits
Acid Test or Quick Ratio
Liabilities

= Quick Current Assets/Current

Example :
Cash
50,000
Debtors
1,00,000
Inventories
1,50,000
1,00,000
Total Current Assets 3,00,000

Current Ratio

=>

Current Liabilities

3,00,000/1,00,000

4. DEBT EQUITY RATIO : It is the relationship between

borrowers fund (Debt) and Owners Capital (Equity).
Long Term Outside Liabilities / Tangible Net Worth
Liabilities of Long Term Nature
Total of Capital and Reserves & Surplus Less
Intangible Assets
For instance, if the Firm is having the following :
Capital
Free Reserves & Surplus
Long Term Loans/Liabilities
Debt Equity Ratio will be

= Rs. 200 Lacs

= Rs. 300 Lacs
= Rs. 800 Lacs
=>

800/500

i.e. 1.6 : 1

5. PROPRIETARY RATIO : This ratio indicates the extent

to which Tangible Assets are financed by Owners Fund.
Proprietary Ratio = (Tangible Net Worth/Total
Tangible Assets) x 100
The ratio will be 100% when there is no Borrowing for
purchasing of Assets.
6. GROSS PROFIT RATIO : By comparing Gross Profit
percentage to Net Sales we can arrive at the Gross Profit
Ratio which indicates the manufacturing efficiency as well as
the pricing policy of the concern.

Gross Profit Ratio = (Gross Profit / Net Sales )

x 100
Alternatively , since Gross Profit is equal to Sales minus
Cost of Goods Sold, it can also be interpreted as below :

Gross Profit Ratio = [ (Sales Cost of goods

sold)/ Net Sales] x 100

7. OPERATING PROFIT RATIO :

It is expressed as
Sales ) x 100

=>

(Operating Profit / Net

Higher the ratio indicates operational efficiency

8. NET PROFIT RATIO :
It is expressed as
x 100

=>

( Net Profit / Net Sales )

It measures overall profitability.

9.

STOCK/INVENTORY TURNOVER RATIO :

(Average Inventory/Sales) x 365 for days

(Average Inventory/Sales) x 52
for weeks
(Average Inventory/Sales) x 12
for
months
Average Inventory or Stocks = (Opening
Stock + Closing Stock)
-----------------------------------------

10. DEBTORS TURNOVER RATIO : This is also

called Debtors Velocity or Average Collection Period or
Period of Credit given .
(Average Debtors/Sales ) x 365 for days
(52 for weeks &
12 for months)
11. ASSET TRUNOVER RATIO :
Sales/Tangible Assets

13. CURRENT ASSET TURNOVER RATIO : Net

Sales / Current Assets
14. CREDITORS TURNOVER RATIO : This is also
called Creditors Velocity Ratio, which determines the

15. RETRUN ON ASSETS :

Taxes/Total Assets

Net Profit after

16. RETRUN ON CAPITAL EMPLOYED :

( Net Profit before Interest & Tax / Average
Capital Employed) x 100

Average Capital Employed is the average of the

equity share capital and long term funds
provided by the owners and the creditors of the firm
at the beginning and end of the accounting period.

Composite Ratio
17. RETRUN ON EQUITY CAPITAL (ROE) :
Net Profit after Taxes / Tangible Net
Worth
18.EARNING PER SHARE
: EPS indicates the
quantum of net profit of the year that would be
ranking for dividend for each share of the company
being held by the equity share holders.
Net profit after Taxes and Preference
Dividend/ No. of Equity Shares
19. PRICE EARNING RATIO : PE Ratio indicates the
number of times the Earning Per Share is covered
by its market price.

20. DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE RATIO : This ratio is

one of the most important one which indicates the
ability of an enterprise to meet its liabilities by way
of payment of installments of Term Loans and
Interest thereon from out of the cash accruals and
forms the basis for fixation of the repayment
schedule in respect of the Term Loans raised for a
project. (The Ideal DSCR Ratio is considered to be

Q. What is the Debtors Velocity Ratio ? If the sales are Rs. 15 Lac.
Ans : ( Average Debtors / Net Sales) x 12 = (125 / 1500) x 12
= 1 month
Q. What is the Creditors Velocity Ratio if Purchases are Rs.10.5 Lac ?
Ans : (Average Creditors / Purchases ) x 12 = (26 / 1050) x 12 = 0.3 months

Exercise 5. : Profit to sales is 2% and amount of profit is say

Rs.5 Lac. Then What is the amount of Sales ?
Answer : Net Profit Ratio = (Net Profit / Sales ) x 100
2
= (5 x100) /Sales
Therefore Sales = 500/2 = Rs.250 Lac
Exercise 6. A Company has Net Worth of Rs.5 Lac, Term
Liabilities of Rs.10 Lac. Fixed Assets worth RS.16 Lac and
Current Assets are Rs.25 Lac. There is no intangible Assets
or other Non Current Assets. Calculate its Net Working
Capital.
Answer
Total Assets
= 16 + 25 = Rs. 41 Lac
Total Liabilities = NW + LTL + CL = 5 + 10+ CL = 41 Lac
Current Liabilities = 41 15 = 26 Lac
Therefore Net Working Capital = C. A C.L
= 25 26 = (- )1 Lac

Exercise 7 : Current Ratio of a concern is 1 : 1. What will be the Net

Working Capital ?
Answer : It suggest that the Current Assets is equal to Current Liabilities
hence the NWC would be NIL ( since NWC = C.A - C.L )
Exercise 8 : Suppose Current Ratio is 4 : 1. NWC is Rs.30,000/-. What
is the amount of Current Assets ?
Answer : 4a - 1a = 30,000
Therefore a = 10,000 i.e. Current Liabilities is Rs.10,000
Hence Current Assets would be 4a = 4 x 10,000 = Rs.40,000/-

Exercise 9. The amount of Term Loan installment is Rs.10000/ per

month, monthly average interest on TL is Rs.5000/-. If the amount of
Depreciation is Rs.30,000/- p.a. and PAT is Rs.2,70,000/-. What
would be the DSCR ?
DSCR = (PAT + Depr + Annual Intt.) / Annual Intt + Annual Installment
= (270000 + 30000 + 60000 ) / 60000 + 120000
= 360000 / 180000 = 2

Exercise 10 : Total Liabilities of a firm is Rs.100 Lac and Current Ratio

is 1.5 : 1. If Fixed Assets and Other Non Current Assets are to the tune of
Rs. 70 Lac and Debt Equity Ratio being 3 : 1. What would be the Long
Term Liabilities?
Ans : We can easily arrive at the amount of Current Asset being Rs. 30 Lac
i.e. ( Rs. 100 L - Rs. 70 L ). If the Current Ratio is 1.5 : 1, then Current
Liabilities works out to be Rs. 20 Lac. That means the aggregate of Net
Worth and Long Term Liabilities would be Rs. 80 Lacs. If the Debt Equity
Ratio is 3 : 1 then Debt works out to be Rs. 60 Lacs and equity Rs. 20 Lacs.
Therefore the Long Term Liabilities would be Rs.60 Lac.

Exercise 11 : Current Ratio is say 1.2 : 1 . Total of balance sheet being

Rs.22 Lac. The amount of Fixed Assets + Non Current Assets is Rs. 10
Lac. What would be the Current Liabilities?
Ans : When Total Assets is Rs.22 Lac then Current Assets would be 22 10
i.e Rs. 12 Lac. Thus we can easily arrive at the Current Liabilities figure which
should be Rs. 10 Lac

EXERCISE 12. A firm sold its stocks in CASH, in order to meet its liquidity
needs. Which of the following Ratio would be affected by this?
1.Debt Equity Ratio
2.Current Ratio
3.Debt Service Coverage Ratio
4.Quick Ratio
EXERCISE 13. A company is found to be carrying a high DEBT EQUITY
