INTRODUCTION
The Ratio Analysis is one of the most powerful tools of financial analysis. It
is used as a device to analyze and interpret the financial health of enterprise. With the
help of ratios that the financial statements can be analyzed more clearly and decisions
made from such analysis. Financial analysis is the process of identifying the financial
strengths and weakness of the firm y properly establishing relationship between the
items of balance sheet and the profit and loss account. There are various methods or
techniques used in analyzing financial statements. By the use of ratio analysis one
can measure the financial conditions of a firm and can point out whether the
conditions is strong, good, questionable or poor.
Meaning of Ratio:
Ratio provides clues to the financial position of a concern. One can draw
conclusions about the exact financial position of a concern with the help of ratios.
Uses:
Inter-firm comparison:
Ratios of one firm can also be compared with the ratios of some other selected firms
in the same industry at the same point of time. This kind of comparison helps in
evaluating relative financial position and performance of the firm.
Intra-firm comparison:
Ratios of various departments in the firm or organization were compared in intra firm
comparison
The ratio analysis is one of the most powerful tools of financial management.
Though ratios are simple to calculate and easy to understand they suffer form some
serious of limitations.
There are no well-accepted standards or rules of thumb for all ratios which as
norms. It renders interpretation of ratios difficult.
Like financial statement, ratios also suffer from the inherent weakness of
accounting records such as their historical nature. Ratios of the past are not
necessarily true indicators of the future.
Personal Basic: -
Ratios are only means of financial analysis and not an end in itself. Ratios
have to be interpreted and different people may interpret the same ratio in
different ways.
Un-comparable: -
Not only industries differ in their nature but also the firms of the similar
business widely differ in their size and accounting procedures etc., it makes
comparison of ratios difficult and misleading more ever, comparisons are
made difficult due to differences on definitions of various financial terms used in the
ratio analysis.
Ratios no substitutes: -
The earliest drugstores date back to the middle Ages. The first known drugstore was
opened by Arabian pharmacists in Baghdad in 755 A.D., and many more soon began
operating throughout the medieval Islamic world and eventually medieval Europe.
By the 19th century, many of the drug stores in Europe and North America had
eventually developed into larger pharmaceutical companies. Most of today's major
pharmaceutical companies were founded in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Key discoveries of the 1920s and 1930s, such as insulin and penicillin, became mass-
manufactured and distributed. Switzerland, Germany and Italy had particularly strong
industries, with the UK, US, Belgium and the Netherlands following suit. Cancer
drugs were a feature of the 1970s. From 1978, India took over as the primary centre
of pharmaceutical production without patent protection
India's US$ 3.1 billion pharmaceutical industry is growing at the rate of 14 percent
per year. It is one of the largest and most advanced among the developing countries.
Over 20,000 registered pharmaceutical manufacturers exist in the country.
Over-the-Counter Medicines:
The Indian market for over-the-counter medicines (OTCs) is worth about $940
million and is growing 20 percent a year, or double the rate for prescription
medicines. The government is keen to widen the availability of OTCs to outlets other
than pharmacies, and the Organization of Pharmaceutical Producers of India (OPPI)
has called for them to be sold in post offices. Developing an innovative new drug,
from discovery to worldwide marketing, now involves investments of around $1
billion, and the global industry's profitability is under constant attack as costs
continue to rise and prices come under pressure.
The industry's exports were worth more than $3.75 billion in 2005-06 and they have
been growing at a compound annual rate of 22.7 percent over the last few years,
according to the government's draft National Pharmaceuticals Policy for 2007,
published in January 2007. The Policy estimates that, by the year 2010, the industry
has the potential to achieve $22.40 billion in formulations, with bulk drug production going
up from $1.79 billion to $5.60 billion: “India's rich human capital is believed to be the
strongest asset for this knowledge-led industry. Various studies show that the scientific
talent pool of 4 million Indians is the second-largest English-speaking group worldwide,
after the USA.”
VAT:
In April 2005, the government introduced value-added tax for the first time and
abolished all other taxes derived from sales of goods. So far, 22 states have
implemented VAT, which is set at 4 percent for medicines. This led to
Opportunities: The main opportunities for the Indian pharmaceutical industry are
in the areas of:
Complete cGMP guidelines are complied with in both the plants. Our at
Hyderabad was successfully inspected by the US FDA during September 2000, in
April 2004 and in February 2008.
A Vision to Excel:
To maintain leadership in custom synthesis of APIs and Intermediates for health care
and life sciences industry and to be one of the top companies world-wide in the

Strength:
Research & Development was the first focus of Divis when it was started as Divis
Research Center. The manufacturing facilities started five years later. But the spirit
of R & D is evident in every initiative of Divis. It is with great involvement and
planning that the management undertakes any activity. This has remained the
cornerstone of Divis growth.
R&D:
The main aim of the Divis R&D Centers is to design, develop and optimize
commercially viable synthetic processes for APIs and Intermediates of Generics and
customer’s discovery products.
Divis has four Research & Development facilities. The main R&D
Center is at Hyderabad, working round the clock which was originally started as
Divis Research Center (DRC) in Hyderabad and has a team of high caliber scientists.
Apart from the above, each plant has its own R&D center.
Besides the required infrastructure, the Hyderabad plant’s R&D center has a Pilot
Plant for scale-up studies, various materials of construction comprising 44 reactors of
from 100 to 2000 Lt. capacity various materials of construction. All Four Research
facilities are inspected and certified as per ISO – 9000 standards.
CUSTOM MANUFACTURING:
Custom Synthesis:
It is a very common practice to find several MNC clients audit our facilities regularly
in course of the custom manufacture of their products. This transparency in operation
has resulted in increased confidence, trust and business between Divis and its clients.
With four R&D Centers, two Pilot Plants, two large scale manufacturing units
including a cGMP / ISO / FDA accredited facility, Divis is an ideal partner for
custom synthesis, process development and mass manufacturing of customer’s own
discovery product.
Divis clients enjoy a great benefit from the foundations on which the entire
company was built – the Divis Research Center.
Over the years many an innovator company has leveraged the strength of
DRC on a Full Time Equivalent (FTE) basis.
The Research team is specialized in process design for new drug candidates,
development up to gram/kilo scale, structural elucidation, impurity profile studies,
process validation, process justification, process optimization, analytical methods
development and validation, environment impact analysis, safety studies and time
cycle studies etc.
An engagement with DRC gives our clients the advantage to concentrate on
actual invention and also gives them a team that has the capacity to re-evaluate and
give a second opinion on the primary invention or discovery itself.
Manufacturing in Hyd.:
It is with rich experience and deliberation that Divis started its manufacturing
activities. Today the company has two manufacturing facilities Developed on a 300
acre site the Divis Hyderabad manufacturing facility comprises of 13 production

AWARDS
Introduction:
Objectives of research:
Management is an art of getting things done with the use of men, material,
machinery methods and money in and effective and efficient manner. The functional
are, which deals with money, is termed as financial management and this department
of finance is treated as the key area in the organization because it includes crucial
decisions regarding the flow and utilization of funds.
Scope:
The scope of study is limited to collecting financial data published in annual reports
of the company with reference to the objectives stated above and an analysis of data
with a view to understand the solutions by applying various ratios relating to balance
sheets.
The analysis is an evaluation of both a firm’s financial performance and its prospects
for future year.
Typically it involves analysis of financial statements of Divi’s Laboratories Ltd.,
Limitations
As adequate data was not able to pool because of the secrecy maintained by the firm,
proper justification for the project was not done.
Current Ratio
Introduction:
The current ratio is a measure of the firm’s short-term solvency. It indicates the
availability of current assets in rupees for every one rupee of current liability. Current
assets include cash and those assets that can be converted into cash within a year,
such as inventories, debtors, marketable securities and prepaid expenses also.
Current Assets
Current Ratio =
Current Liabilities
The higher the current ratio, the larger the amount of rupees available
pre rupee of y, the more the firms ability to meet current obligations and greater the
safety of funds of short-term creditors. The current ratio, in a way, is a measure of
margin of safety to the creditors.
Although there is no hard and fast rule, conventionally, a current ratios of 2:1
i.e. for every one rupee of current liabilities, there should be two rupees of current
assets, is considered satisfactory.
Quick Ratio
Introduction:
It is used as a measure of the company’s ability to meet its current obligations. This
ratio is calculated as a supplement to the current ratio in analyzing the liquidity of the
firm.
Liquid assets are those assets, which are readily converted into cash.
The standard norm of quick ratio 1:1 is acceptable. A very high or very low ratio is
not desirable.
Cash Ratio
Introduction:
Absolute cash ratio is also be calculated together with current ratio and acid test
ratios as to exclude even receivables from the current assets and find out the absolute
liquid assets.
Cash Ratio =
Current liabilities
It indicates the number of times debtor’s turnover each year. If it is high that
indicates the effectiveness of management in collecting debts. Generally, the higher
the value of debtor’s turnover, the more efficient is the management of credit.
Sales
Debtors turnover ratio =
Average debtors
Average collection period indicates the speed of the collection of debts by the firm. If
the firm is collecting the debts in time then that will good for the firm. The shorter
collection period is the better quality of debtors.
It measures the gross margin on total net sales of company. This ratio measures the
efficiency of company’s operations and can be higher the gross profit ratio, better is
for the company.
Gross Profit
Net Sales
Introduction:
This ratio indicates how fast inventory is sold. A high ratio is good from
the viewpoint of liquidity and vice versa. A how ratio would signify that inventory
does not sell fast and stays on the shelf or in the warehouse for a long time.
It indicates the firm’s efficiency in converting the inventory into sales. Lower the
ratio that will be beneficial for the firm.
This is used for the proprietors and prospective investors because it reveals the
overall profitability of the concern. Higher the ratio is preferable because it gives
idea of improved efficiency of the concern.
Introduction:
This ratio establishes the relationship between operating profit and sales
