CHAPTER NO . 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY Sugar Industry in India is agro based industry. Occupying a predominate position in the economy of the country. Sugar Industry is the Biggest industry employing nearly three lacks workers and sub staining 2.5 to 3 crores of agriculturists and persons are engage in transportation and harvesting. Total sugar industry in India are 320 out of that 70% are in the co-operative sector. The production of sugar in India is highest in the world. In India Maharashtra stands first in production of sugar. Now in Maharashtra state 78 sugar factories in operating through beginning a few private entrepreneurs started sugar production in 1930. The real inspiration was derived from the leadership of late Dr. PADMASHRI VIKHE PATIL & DR.DHANANJAYRAO GADGIL when they started the First sugar factory on co-operative basis in 1950. So now in Maharashtra out of 78 sugar factories 67 are working on operative basis and remaining 11 are working on joint stock company system Ahmednagar district. We find that out of 18 sugar factories 13 are working on co-operative basis & only 5 are joint stock companies. The present study has been undertaken in the area of Ashok co-operative sugar factory ltd. Ashoknagar, Taluka-Shrirampur, District-Ahmednagar 1.2 BACKGROUND OF THE TOPIC capital is just like a blood in the human body because capital is significant in financial management due to the fact that it plays a vital role in keeping the wheel of the business running. Every business requires capital, without which it cannot be promoted. The capital is required as fixed capital and working capital. Fixed capital required for establishment of a business, where as working capital required for day-to-day operations of a business. Financial statements are prepared for decision-making. They play a dominant role in setting the framework of managerial decision. But the information provided in financial statement is not an end in itself as no meaningful conclusion can be drawn from this statement alone. However, the information provided in financial statement used in decision making through analysis and interpretation of financial statement. 1

Working capital is refers to short-term funds to meet operating expenses. It refers to the funds, which a company must possess to finance its day-to-day operations of the business. It is concerned with the management of the firms current assets and current liabilities. It relates with the problems that arise in attempting to manage the current assets, current liabilities and their inter-relationship that exists between them. If a firm can not maintain a satisfactory level of working capital, it is likely to become insolvent and may even be forced into bankruptcy...

1.3 COMPANY PROFILE History of Ashok Co-operative Sugar Factory Ltd. Before giving into actual establishment of this factory. Directly traced on the success of the idea of Pravaranagar in Bombay state during 1948 to 1954. In local farmers around Belapur road in Ahmednagar District were encouraged to pursue the idea of co-operative sugar factory by the local official held a conference of local farmers at belapur road on 17th Dec, 1945 under the president ship of DR.Gadgil the veteran Economist of Pune. The successful working and tremendous progress of Pravara Co-operative Sugar Factory Ltd. Pravaranagar encouraged the farmers. Around the area of cultivated more sugarcane to meet this problems govt. indicates 12 sits which were considered suitable for the establishment of sugar factories of Maharashtra subsequently in the year 1954 this Ashok Cooperative Sugar Factory Ltd; Ashoknagar is granted industrial license registered no.264 dated 1 Dec 1954. 1.4 NEED OF THE STUDY In every business organization its financial transaction are recorded in the systematic term, which called Financial Statements such as profit and Loss Account and Balance Sheet. Financial statement shows the financial strength and weakness of the firm, hence, the financial statements are prepared for the decision making.

1.7 CONCEPT OF THE STUDY

The concept of working capital has been a matter of great controversy, among the financial wizards and they view it differently. working capital can be classified in to broadly two concepts of working capital commonly found in the existing literature of finance, such as: A) Gross working capital concept:According to the gross working capital concept, the total current assets are termed as the gross working capital or circulating capital or operating the capital as rotate continuously as long as the firm exists. A total current asset includes cash, marketable securities, accounts receivables, inventory, prepaid expenses, advance payments etc. This concept also called as quantitative or broader approach. Gross working capital refers to firms investments in the short-term assets such as cash, short-term securities, accounts receivables and inventory. B) Net working capital concept:As per this net working capital concept, the excess of current assets over current liabilities represents net working capital. Net working capital concept represents the amount of the current assets, which would remain after all the current liabilities were paid. It may be either positive or negative. It will be positive, if current assets exceed the current liabilities and negative, if the current liabilities are in excess of current assets. A net working capital concept indicates or measures the liquidity and also suggests the extent to which working capital needs may be financed by the payment source of funds C) Permanent Working Capital This indicates the amount of minimum Working Capital which is required to be maintained by every business at any point of time, in order to carry on business permanent & uninterrupted basis. It is permanently locked up in current assets. D) Temporary Working Capital This indicates that amount of Working Capital required by the business over & above fixed Working Capital. This need of Working Capital may vary depending upon the fluctuations in demand as a result of changes in production or sale 5

1.8 FACTORS INFLUENCING WORKING CAPITAL 1. General nature of the business companies which sell a service and that too for immediate cash, require little working capital. But a manufacturing firm which produce a product and sell on credit basis, working capital required with high. 2. Production cycle if the production process is lengthy working capital needs with high. 3. Speed of operations cycle, if the speed of operational cycle is slow working capital needs high. 4. Credit terms if the company purchases raw-materials on credit basis and sills finished goods on cash base, working capital requirement will be low. 5. Growth and expansion is firms larger growth prospects demand grater working capital. 6. Dividend policy is firms pursuing liberal dividend policy requires more working capital. To analyze the changes in Working capital for the study period of Ashok Sugar Factory Ltd., Ashoknagar. To analyze the Working capital performance of the firm through ratio analysis. To suggest possible solution for better management of Working capital of Ashok Sugar Factory Ltd., Ashoknagar. 1.9 GROWTH TRENDSBefore 1932 there were about ten factories producing above 1.6 lacks tons of sugar in 1951-52 sugar production reached a figure of 15.2 lacks tones. In 1951 the government provided incentives by raising minimum prices of sugarcane and maximum prices of sugar. So these policies have directly effect on the result in lower production. The government again adopted the policy of protection and raised minimum sugarcane prices in 1954 as result sugar output rise to 15 lacks tons in 1954-55 and imports became necessary.During the season 1981-82 the highest production was recorded. Which were 84.37 lacks tones? The area under sugar cane in Maharashtra i.e. in 1972-73 was 11, 91,800 tones & 81.6 tones per hector, but in 1981-82 was 2,87,80,000 tones & 96.9 tones per hector per hector. The change in sugarcane production because the new developed variety gives more crop yield & it depending upon the climatic condition from year to year.

The finding is result of analyzing the data of three years with respect to the financial position operational efficiency and profitability of the company. The brief description of the finding of the study is given below1. Gross Profit margin Ratio was very good sign. the comparison of last 3 yers this ratio are changing. that ratio are not constant 2. The company is failed to maintain the margin of covering the administrative, selling and distribution expenses. 3. This Net Profit indicates the overall performance & efficiency of company. From the above calculation it seen that the efficiency & performance of the company is getting dampen. 4. If the Company wants to increase the efficiency & improve their performance then the companies want to maintain its higher Net Profit rate. 5. ROE ratio indicates the higher ratio is the good indicator where as low ratio is poor indicator. In the above figure the ratio continually failing down hence shows the poor performance. 6. ROTA ratio indicates the higher the ratio good for the company. In the above figure the ratio is getting reduce i.e. return on total asset is getting reduced and hence weakening the position of the company. 7. Capital employed turnover ratio has shown good result from last 3 years, increasing. ROCE can be increased by one of the following way- increase profit margin, decrease in capital employed. ROI can be improved by boosting sales, reducing invested capital or reducing cost.
