INDUSTRY PROFILE
Without a sound and effective banking system in India it cannot have a healthy economy.
The banking system of India should not only be hassle free but it should be able to meet
new challenges posed by the technology and any other external and internal factors
1.1 Definition of Banking According to Banking Regulation
Act-1949
Section 5(b) of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949 defines banking as accepting, for the
purpose of lending or investment, of deposits of money from the public, repayable on
demand or otherwise, and with draw able by cheque, draft and order or otherwise.
1.2 History of Indian Banking Industry
Indian banking system, over the years has gone through various phases after
establishment of Reserve Bank of India in 1935 during the British rule, to function as
Central Bank of the country. Earlier to creation of RBI, the Central Bank functions were
being looked after by the Imperial Bank of India. With the 5-Year Plan having acquired
an importance place after the independence, the Government felt that the private banks
may not extend the kind of co-operation in providing credit support, the economy may
need. It resulted in the creation of Public Sector Bank and later continued through the
process of nationalization. In these 6 decades since independence, banking in India has
evolved through 4 distinct phases:
1.2.1 Foundation Phase:
It can be considered to cover 1950s and 1960s till the nationalization of banks in 1969.
The focus during this period was to lay the foundation for a sound banking system in the
country. As a result the phase witnessed the development of necessary legislative
framework for facilitating re-organization and consolidation of the banking system, for
meeting the requirement of Indian economy. A major development was transformation of

2. 2
Imperial Bank of India into State Bank of India in 1955 and nationalization of 14 major
private banks during 1969.
1.2.2 Expansion Phase:
It had begun in mid 1960s but gained momentum after nationalisation of banks and
continued till 1984. A determined effort was made to make banking facilities available to
the masses. Branch network of the banks was widened at a very fast pace covering the
rural and semi-urban population, which had no access to banking hitherto. Most
importantly, credit flows were guided towards the Priority Sectors. However, this
weakened the lines of supervision and affected the quality of assets of banks and
pressurized their profitability and brought competitive efficiency of the system at low
ebb.
1.2.3 Consolidation Phase:
The phase started in 1985 when a series of policy initiatives were taken by RBI which
saw marked slowdown in the branch expansion. Attention was paid to improving house-
keeping, customer service, credit management, staff productivity and profitability of
banks. Measures were also taken to reduce the structural constraints that obstructed the
growth of money market.
1.2.4 Reforms Phase:
The macro-economic crisis faced by the country in 1991 paved the way for extensive
financial sector reform which brought deregulation of interest rates, more competition,
technological changes, prudential guidelines on asset classification and income
recognition, capital adequacy, autonomy packages etc.,

1.3 Structure of Indian Banking System
1.3 Chart shows structure of Indian Banking System
1.3.1 Reserve Bank of India
The origins of the RBI can be traced to 1926, when the Royal Commission on Indian
Currency and Finance – also known as the Hilton – Young Commission- recommended
the creation of a central bank for India to separate the control of currency and credit from
the Government and to augment banking facilities throughout the country. The RBI Act
of 1934 established the Reserve Bank and set in motion a series of actions culminating in
the start of operations in 1935. Since then, the Reserve Bank‟s role and functions have
undergone numerous changes, as the nature of the Indian economy and financial sector
changed.
Starting as a private shareholder‟s bank, the Reserve Bank was nationalized in 1949. It
then assumed the responsibility to meet the aspirations of newly independent country and
its people. The Reserve Bank‟s nationalization aimed at achieving coordination between
the policies of the Government and those of the central bank.
1.3.2 Commercial Banks:
The commercial banking structure in India consists of: Scheduled Commercial Banks and
Unscheduled Commercial Banks
Scheduled Commercial Banks constitute those banks, which have been included in the
Second Schedule of Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Act, 1934. RBI in turn includes only

those banks in this schedule, which satisfy the criteria laid down vide section 42 (6) (a) of
the Act. Some Co-operative banks are scheduled commercial banks albeit not all co-
operative banks are. Being a part of the second schedule confers some benefits to the
bank in terms of access to accommodation by RBI during the times of liquidity
constraints. At the same time, however, this status also subjects the bank certain
conditions and obligation towards the reserve regulations of RBI. For the purpose of
assessment of banks, the RBI categorise them as Public Sector Banks, Old Private Sector
Banks, New Private Sector Banks and Foreign Banks.
Commercial banks are banking institutions which accept deposits from the public and
grant short-term and long term loans and advances to their customers. In India, there are
nationalized (public sector) commercial banks as well as private sector banks which are
corporate organizations. The largest commercial bank is the State Bank of India which
was established in 1955 under a special Act. The main source of income of commercial
banks is the difference between the interest they charge on loans and the interest they
allow on deposits. Commercial banks generally grant short-term loans repayable within
one year. But they also meet the mid-term and long-term requirements of business
enterprises. Besides accepting deposits and lending money, commercial banks provide
other services such as issue of bank drafts, traveler‟s cheques and letters of credit,
collection of bills, dividends and interest safe keeping of valuables, transfer of money
from one place to another, payment of insurance premium etc.
1.3.3 State Bank Group (SBI and its Associates)
State Bank Group is India‟s largest banking group with huge assets. State Bank of India is
the India‟s oldest nationalized bank. State Bank of India has over 10000 branches while
its associated banks have an additional 8500 branches. Outside India, SBI has 82 foreign
branches spread over 32 nations. In addition to banking operations, SBI has established 7
subsidiaries: SBI Life, SBI Capital Markets, SBI Factors, SBI Cards, SBICAP Securities
and SBI DFHI.
SBI had its beginnings in June 1806 with setting up of Bank of Calcutta in Calcutta.
Three years down the line it re-established itself as Bank of Bengal, a joint stock of
British India promoted by Bengal Government. Likewise, Bank of Bombay and Bank of
Madras were established in 1840 and 1843 respectively. These 3 banks were
amalgamated to form Imperial Bank of India in1921. During three and a half decades of
existence, Imperial Bank of India was successful in mobilizing deposits, generating

5. 5
investments and disbursement of advances. Imperial Bank thus became an integral part of
India‟s economy.
1.3.4 Public Sector Banks:
Public Sector Banks make up the largest category of banks in Indian banking system.
These banks include the SBI and its associate banks and 18 nationalized banks.
Nationalized banks are governed by the Banking Companies Act 1970 and 1980.
During 1968 the scheme of „socio-control‟ was introduced, which was closely followed
by nationalisation of 14 major banks in 1969 and another 6 in 1980.
Keeping in view the objectives of nationalisation, PSBs undertook expansion of reach and
services. Resultantly the number of branches increased 7 fold (from 8321 to more than
60000 out of which 58% in rural areas) and number of people served per branch office
came down from 65000 in 1969 to 10000. Much of this expansion has taken place in rural
and semi-urban areas. The expansion is significant in terms of geographical distribution.
States neglected by private banks before 1969 have a vast network of Public Sector
Banks. The PSBs including RRBs, account for 93% of bank offices and 87% of banking
system deposits.
1.3.5 Foreign Banks:
Business firms engaged in foreign trade receive and make payment through foreign
currency. In order to facilitate such transactions and also help exporters and importers,
there are banking institutions which primarily engage in transactions involving foreign
exchange. These are known as Foreign Exchange Banks. In India, Export and Import
Bank of India (EXIM Bank) has been set up by the Government to help export and import
trade and other related activities. Such activities are also undertaken by the foreign
exchange division of commercial banks. Exchange banks which are foreign in origin have
their head offices located outside India. They engage in other kinds of banking business
as well, like acceptance of deposits, grant of loans and advances, etc. However, financing
foreign trade remains their field of specialization
1.3.6 Private Sector Banks:
Initially all the banks in India were private banks, which were founded in the pre-
independence era to cater to the banking needs of the people. Later in 1935, the Reserve
Bank of India (RBI) was established and it took over the central banking responsibilities
from the Imperial Bank of India, transferring commercial banking functions completely to
IBI. In 1994, the Reserve Bank of India issued a policy of liberalization to license limited

6. 6
number of private banks, which came to be known as New Generation tech-savvy banks.
Global Trust Bank was the first private bank after liberalization; it was later amalgamated
with Oriental Bank of Commerce (OBC). Then Housing Development Finance
Corporation Limited (HDFC) became the first (still existing) to receive an 'in principle'
approval from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to set up a bank in the private sector. At
present, Private Banks in India includes leading banks like ICICI Banks, ING Vysya
Bank, Jammu and Kashmir Bank, Karnataka Bank, Kotak Mahindra Bank, etc.
1.3.7 Regional Rural Banks
Regional Rural Banks (RRBs) form an integral part of the Indian banking system with
focus on service to rural areas. The process of amalgamation of the RRBs was initiated by
Government of India in September 2005 in a phased manner. Prior to the process of
amalgamation, 196 RRBs sponsored by 27 SCBs and one State Cooperative Bank were
operating in the country with a network of 14,484 branches spread over 523 districts as on
March 31, 2005. Consequent upon the amalgamation, the number of RRBs declined to 82
operating in 26 States and in one Union Territory covering 619 districts with a network of
15,475 branches as on March 31, 2010.
1.3.8 Co-operative Banks:
Co-operative Banks in India are established under the provisions of the Co-operative
Societies Act 1912. These are organized on co-operative basis. It was with a view to
provide adequate credit at economical rates of interest to the farmers, that co-operative
credit societies were first, organized in villages for providing financial help to
agriculturist and rural artisans. Co-operatives banks are organized both at primary and
district level. Co-operative Credit Societies (banks) at the primary level or local level are
members of central co-operative banks at the district level. Similarly, at the state level,
there are state co-operative bank, which finance, co-ordinate and control the central co-
operative banks in each state. A co-operative credit society (bank) at the primary level
can be formed by the local people having common interest and common purposes. The
co-operative banks generally grant loans for productive purposes but they can also do so
for other purposes. The rate of interest charged is very moderate.

Mc KENSY’S 7’S FRAME WORK
Origin of the 7’s framework:
The 7‟s framework was first mentioned in “The art of Japanese Management” by Tom
Peter and Robert Watin Man in 1981. The 7s framework of Mc Kensy‟s is a management
model that describes 7 factors to organize a company in a holistic and effective way.
Together these factors determine the way in which a corporation operates. Management
should take into account all 7 of these factors to be sure of successful implementation of a
strategy for large or small organization. They are all interdependent so if you fail to pay
proper attention to one of them, this may affect all other as well. On top of that, the
relative importance of each factor may vary over time.

19. 19
Chart showing Mc Kensy‟s 7‟s framework

The business strategy of Canara Bank is to provide financial solutions to major segments
of its customer base, namely retail and corporate. Separate business groups have been set

promote good Banking practices by setting out the minimum standards. It will give
information in respect of various activities relating to customer service, rights of

3.2 Structure:
Structure is an addition to the organizational tool kit. It is comparable with the super –
structure of an organization, which indicates to why extent the activities are specialized
and the ways in which the organizational tasks are interchanged and coordinated.

20. 20
The three important functions are:
Relationships
Culture
Business
So organizational structure means lines of authority, supervisory relationships, grouping
of employees and operational work flow of the company. A number of vital factors of
success, including workplace culture and operational efficiency, are directly influenced
by organizational structure. An effective and well-designed structure is important to the
success of any business.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The focus of financial analysis is on key figures in the financial statements and the
significant relationship that exists between them. The analysis of financial statements is a
process of evaluating the relationship between component parts of financial statements to
obtain a better understanding of the Bank‟s position and performance.
In Comparative Financial Statement (CFS), two or more Balance Sheet and/ or the
Income Statement (IS) of a firm are presented simultaneously in columnar form. The
financial data for two or more years are placed and presented in adjacent columns and
thereby the financial data is provided a times perspective in order to facilitate periodic
comparison. The preparation of the CFS is based on the premise that a statement covering
a period of a number of years is more meaningful and significant than for a single year
only, and that the financial statement for one period represent only 1 phase of the long
and continuous history of the firm. The CFS can be prepared for both the BS and the IS.
5.1 Comparative Balance Sheet (CBS)
The CBS shows the different assets and liabilities of the Bank on different dates to make
comparisons of absolute balances and also of changes if any, from one date to another.
The CBS may be helpful in analysing and evaluating the financial position of the bank
over a period of years.

LEARNING EXPERIENCE
In plant training is really useful to know how classroom theories are applied in the
corporate organization. Every organization before carrying out any task has to perform
managerial functions such as planning, organizing, controlling, and directing besides
useful functions like wages and salary administration. In the banks also, the top
management and the planning department have to plan about the new deposits and
lending policies, recruitment and training of new staff members. They have to plan about
risk management especially credit risks. Besides this banks should also plan for branch-
networks adopting new technologies.
The organization set up in the banks is usually – Head Office, Regional office and Branch
office to organize the entire activities of the bank. Head Office should be monitoring all
the regional offices and in turn regional offices should monitor all the branch offices.
Thus the working performance of the bank is entirely in the hands of a branch manager.
Controlling the activities of the bank are very essential, otherwise planned activity will
not reach its destination. The top management and the planning department should review
and evaluate their plans from time to time to see that it is in the right track.
Directing is very essential for the smooth work of business. There should be clear cut
information regarding who should direct whom. Organization Structure at head office
level, regional level, branch level department level should be defined very clearly.
In addition to that they provide various services which add to their revenue and customer
relationship. Banks involve into a variety of services like selling insurance, and mutual
fund products of other companies and they help the customers in the payment of electric
and telephone bills, as they already have a large customer base for which they give. The
entire picture of banks providing help has changed too, they are doing their duty by
serving the customers, who are the reason for their very existence of the banks revolve
around the customers by providing competitive services.
Technology has evolved a lot over a period of year. It plays a major role in customer
service; customer prefers advanced but simple technology which would make their life
more comfortable and faster. Karnataka Bank has adopted CBS – Finacle and has many
ATM networks to provide quality Services to customers.

GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO WORKING
CAPITAL
1.1 Introduction to the study
A study on Working capital management practiced in Canara Bank at Circle Office,
Mangalore. Working capital Management is one of the most important aspects of
financial management. It forms a major function of the finance manager and accountant.
Its effective provision can do much to ensure the success of a business, while its
inefficient management can lead not only to loss of profit but also to the ultimate
downfall of what otherwise might be considered as a promising concern. Much has been
rightly made of the long term planning of capital projects. But the cost to industry due to
inadequate planning in the use of working capital is immeasurable. Thus a study of
working capital management is major importance to internal and external analysis
because of its close relationship with the current day to day operations of a business.
1.1.1 Meaning of Working Capital Management
Working Capital represents the money that is required for purchase/stocking of raw
materials, payment of salary, wages, power charges etc, and also for financing the interval
between the supply of goods and the receipt of goods and the receipt of payment
thereafter.
Working Capital Management is concerned with the problems that arise in attempting to
manage the current assets, the current liabilities and inter relationship that exists between
them. The term current assets refer to those assets which in the ordinary course of
business can be, or will be, converted into cash within one year without undergoing a
diminution in value and without disrupting the operations of the firm. Current liabilities
are those liabilities which are intended at their inception, to be paid in the ordinary course
of business, within a year out of the current assets or earnings of the concern.

33. 33
It has been rightly said, working capital management has been looked upon as the driving
seat of a finance manager. Constant management is required to maintain appropriate level
in the various working capital accounts.
1.1.2 Importance of working capital Management:
The importance of working capital in any industrial concern needs no emphasis. The
management of working capital is perhaps more important than the management of profit
under the presence of deflationary conditions. This requires greatest attention and efforts
of the finance manager. The finance manager should be vigilant as the treatment of
different components of working capital such as cash; receivables and inventory require
special attention. It throws a challenge to the finance manager while exercising his skill
and judgment for handling the complicated issues in this regard. Therefore working
capital management has been looked upon as the driving seat of finance manager.
1.1.3 Types of Working Capital
The working capital can be classified into two types on the basis of time;
1. Permanent working capital.
2. Temporary or variable working capital.
Permanent Working Capital
Permanent working capital is the minimum amount of current assets, which is needed to
conduct the business even during the dullest season of the years. It is the amount of fund-
required to produce the good and services, which is necessary to satisfy the demand at
particular point. Permanent working capital has following characteristics.
It is a classified on the basis of time factor.
Its size increases with the growth of business operation.
It constantly changes from one asset to another and continuous to remain in the
business process.
Temporary or variable working capital
Variable working capital is the amount of additional current assets required for a short
period, the capital required to meet the seasonal needs of a firm is called seasonal
working capital. Variable working capital has following characteristics.
It is particularly suited to a business of a seasonal or cyclical nature.

34. 34
It is not always gainfully employed
Though it may change one asset to another as permanent working capital does.
While temporary working capital is fluctuating sometimes increasing and sometimes
decreasing. However the permanent working capital line need not be horizontal if the
firm‟s requirement for permanent capital is increasing or decreasing over a period. For a
growing firm has difference between permanent and temporary working capital.
1.1.4 Adequacy of Working Capital
A firm must have adequate working, i.e. as much as needed by the firm. It should neither
be excessive nor inadequate. Both situations are dangerous. Excessive working capital
means the firm does not have sufficient fund for running operations which ultimately
result in production inter perceptions and lowering down the profitability.
1.1.5 Capital required for manufacturing and service industries
For running an industry or a concern, two types of capital are required viz., fixed capital
and working capital. Fixed capital is utilized for acquiring the fixed assets such as land,
building, plant and machinery etc., and to meet capital expenditure connected with the
setting up of the industry or concern. But by themselves, these fixed assets would not
produce/earn anything. They have to be run / worked for production. This requires
enough liquid sources, viz., working capital to keep the wheels moving.
The following are the Components of Working Capital
1. Raw Materials
2. Work in Progress
3. Finished Goods
4. Debtors
5. Creditors
1.1.6 Working capital cycle
It begins with cash; cash will be used for procurement of raw material. The firm has to
maintain raw material of suitable volume always.

35. 35
During the period of operation the raw material will be converted into work in progress.
The value and quantum of work in progress depends on the conversion period and the
cost of conversion.
Once the work in progress is converted into finished goods, it will be held by the
company till the point of sale which requires funding.
In business practice, generally the payment for suppliers is not made immediately on
purchase. The time period allowed for payment is called Credit Period.
Operating Cycle or Working Capital Cycle
A simple working capital cycle diagram
The process involved in the utilization of working capital is cyclic one. What is at one
stage a raw materials gets converted into goods-in-process in the next stage and then into
finished goods, then book debts and then cash again back to the stage of raw materials. In
respect of trading concerns, operating cycle represents the period involved from the time
the goods and services are purchased and the same are sold and realized. In the case of
manufacturing concerns, it is the time involved in the purchasing of raw materials,
converting them into finished goods and the same are finally sold and proceeds are
realized.
The total working capital requirements for Industrial Units will depend upon the blocking
period of assets and the operation of the cycle. Then, the stocking of the raw materials
CASH

MATERIALS
WORK IN
PROGRESS
FINISHED

DEBTORS

36. 36
may be equivalent to one or three months raw materials consumption for most industries,
but say nil for a sugar mill.
As regards the operating cycle, the duration of each stage of process cycle is first decided
upon having regard to the function it is supposed to perform. The conversion of raw
materials into finished goods depends upon the technical requirements and manufacturing
facilities available. Similarly, the turnover of finished products and their transformation
into book debts, bills or cash could be related to factors like delivery schedule, business
customs and competition. Thus, the working capital cycle of a manufacturing activity
shouts with the acquisition of raw materials and ends with realization of cash for finished
goods.
The cycle is long in some cases and short in others, depending upon the nature of
business. Cycle is fast in consumer goods industries and slow in capital goods industries.
Cycle is short in case of perishable such as food articles, beverages, fruits, fish, eggs, etc.
The cycle is long in case of tobacco, distilling, timber, steel etc. Seasonal industries like
umbrella, wooden fabrics, fans, refrigerators, require higher stock in some months and
bare minimum in remaining months.
During the cycle, funds are blocked in various stages of current assets, viz., cash itself,
inventory and receivables. These require finance, finance involves costs. Quicker the
cycle more is the turnover normally and longer the cycle, the less is the turnover.
Stagnation in any area affects turnover and profitability.
1.1.7 Working Capital Management
Management of working capital means the management of current assets, current
liabilities and net working capital.
Current Liabilities
Current liabilities are short-term liabilities which are repayable within a year. They are
normally raised for meeting the working capital needs and to acquire Current Assets.
Current Liabilities are the main source of finance for working capital and are normally
identified with the operating cycle of the business. Current liabilities consist of:
Bank borrowings for working capital
Unsecured loans, Inter Corporate Deposits etc.
Sundry Creditors- Trade

37. 37
Term Loan- Installment repayable within a period of 1 year, other Current
Liabilities and provisions.
Current Assets
They are not fixed assets. They are also called convertible assets, liquid or floating assets.
They change their form every now and then and ultimately are converted into cash.
Current Assets in the form of finished goods are meant for sale and converts into cash in a
period not exceeding 1 year. They indicate short-term deployment of funds and form
gross working capital.
The following are the components of current assets:
a. Cash
b. Stock in trade consisting of raw material, stock in progress, finished goods, stores,
packing materials.
c. Book Debts.
d. Other Loans and Advances etc.
The quantum and period, for which each current asset is held, should be reasonable and
related to the requirement. Any asset held in excess, burdens with unnecessary interest
and costs on such borrowings.
1.1.8 Working Capital: Methods of Assessment at Canara
Bank Circle Office Mangalore for loan proposal:
The assessment of working capital requirement of borrower shall generally be made
under any one of the following 3 methods.
A. Turnover Method
B. MPBF Method
C. Cash Budget System
A. Turnover Method
The genesis of the turnover method is traced to the P R Nayak Committee
Recommendations which was again reviewed by the Vaz Committee. Under this method,
the working capital limit shall be computed at 20% of the projected gross sales turnover
accepted by the bank. In case of SSI borrowers seeking/enjoying fund based working
capital facilities up to 500Lacs shall be accessed on the basis of turnover method of
MPBF system at the option of the borrower concerned.

38. 38
The turnover method shall be applied for sanction of fund based working capital limits to
the non SSI borrowers requiring working capital facilities up to 200Lacs from the
banking system.
This system shall be made applicable to traders, merchants, exporters who are not having
a predetermined manufacturing trading cycle. However, even such borrowers can opt for
MPBF system, if the same is more suitable for assessing the working capital needs and is
advantageous to them.
Under this method, branches/offices shall ensure maintenance of a minimum margin on
the projected annual sales turnover. In the words, 25% of the estimated gross sales
turnover value shall be computed as working capital requirement, of which, at least 4/5th
(20%) shall be provided by the bank and the balance 1/5th
(5%) shall be by way of
promoter‟s contribution towards margin money. However, if the available net working
capital is more, the same shall be rationed for assessing the extent of bank finance and
lower limits can be considered.
In the case of new units, branches should ensure that the projections made are realistic by
analyzing the installed capacity, availability of infrastructural facilities, marketability of
the product and performance of similar units in the industry, background of the promoter
etc., and such other factors relevant to a particular unit.
The projected turnover output value is the „Gross Sales‟ which will include excise duty
also. In the case of traders, while bank finance could be assessed at 20% of the projected
turnover, the actual withdrawals should be allowed on the basis of drawing power
determined after deducting unpaid stocks.
B. Maximum Permissible Bank Finance (MPBF) System:
Assessment of working capital limits of over 2Crore for non SSI borrowers or over
5Crore for non SSI borrowers, as the case may be, but up to 25Crore shall be assessed
based on the MPBF system. For limits of over 25Crore, credit facilities may be assessed
on the basis of MPBF system or cash budget system at the option of the borrower. A
uniform classification of current assets/current liabilities shall be adopted. The assessment
of credit requirement of the party shall be made based on the total study of the borrower‟s
business operations vis-a-vis the production/processing cycle of the industry, which shall
represent a reasonable build-up of current assets for being supported by the bank finance.

39. 39
Based on Kannan Committee recommendations, RBI has allowed freedom to the banks to
direct the holding levels of various components of current assets for financial support to
ensure efficient functioning of the unit.
The norms relating to level of inventory as advised by RBI shall continue to serve as
historic reference level. However, the levels of inventory and receivables shall be based
on industry trend and closely related to market developments. Projected level of inventory
and receivables shall be examined in relation to the past trend and based on the inter-firm
comparisons. The existing norms are only indicative level of inventory and borrowers
specific operational needs to hold projected level of inventory and reasonability thereof,
ability to absorb the cost of carrying such inventory and comparison of the other similar
units in the industry shall be relied upon to decide the required and acceptable level for
being supported by the bank.
C. Cash Budget System
A cash budget statement depicts the projected movement of cash and bank balances at a
future period. It shows the expected inflow and outflow of cash deficit and surplus in
generation of cash.
Structure of Cash Flow Statement: The cash flow statement shows the movement of
cash and bank balances during a certain period, the reason for increase (+) or decrease (-)
in the bank borrowings, the level of cash holding between two intervals of time. The cash
flow statement is a historical statement that depicts the flow of cash in the system.
The statement covers most of the details needed for assessment of the financial needs of
the borrower. The statement of cash flow is made more meaningful and useful for
assessment of working capital by grouping the cash flows under 3 heads viz., Operating,
Investing and Financing. The principal cash flows arising out of the above 3 main groups
are described below:
i. Operating Activities
These activities involve producing and delivering goods and providing services. Cash
inflows from operating activities include receipts from customers for sale of goods and
services including receipts from collection of debtors. Cash outflows from operating
activities include payments to employees for services, payment to suppliers of goods,
payments to Governments for taxes and duties and services etc.

40. 40
ii. Investing Activities
These activities involve extending and recovering loans and acquiring and disposing of
debt and equity instruments and fixed assets. Cash inflow from investing activities
include receipts from loan collections, receipts from sales of debt and equity instruments
of other enterprises and receipts from sale of fixed assets. Cash outflows from investing
activities include disbursement of loans, payments to acquire debt and equity instruments
of other enterprises and payments (including advances and down payments) to acquire
fixed assets.
iii. Financing Activities
These activities involve obtaining resources from owners and providing them with a
return on and return of their investment, borrowings and repaying amounts borrowed and
obtaining and paying for other resources obtained from creditors on long term credit.
Cash inflows from financing activities include proceeds from issuing equity instruments,
debentures, mortgages, bills and from other long and short term borrowings. Cash
outflows from financing activities are payments of dividends, repayments of amounts
borrowed and principal payments to creditors who have extended long term credit.
In the case of borrowers whose credit limits are to be assessed on the basis of cash budget
system, the branches shall obtain the following data from the borrower along with
applications.
a. Cash Flow Statement
b. Projected Balance Sheet and Profitability Statement
c. Credit Monitoring Assets Data
Assessment of the limit under the cash budget system is done by arriving at the deficit
between cash inflow and cash outflow during a period of time.
In addition to the Cash Budget System, the branches shall obtain following additional
information to scrutinize the cash budget statement.
Credit Sales during the Year, Credit Purchases during the Year, Opening Stock of the
Finished Goods, Closing Stock of the Finished Goods, Receivables outstanding at the
beginning, Receivables outstanding at the end, Creditors outstanding at the beginning and
Creditors outstanding at the end

Nature of the Business:
The seafood business produces food for consumption by end consumers: retail, food
service (restaurant), and institutional. The demands and tastes of these end consumers
drive the entire industry. The seafood industry competes with other protein producers,
including red and white meat and poultry, on a local, national, and international level. In
short, the industry must emphasize the food component of the term seafood and must
think globally.
Industry Elements
Production, processing, and distribution are the three phases common to the food
business.
The seafood industry produces processes, and markets fish and shellfish into intermediate
or finished food products for consumers. The industry involves several linkages or phases
of activity between the natural resource in its marine environment and the final products
available to consumers.
Production – Fish and shellfish are harvested using a variety of nets, hooks and lines,
traps, diving techniques, or other gear. In addition, they are cultured from birth through
rearing and feeding to market size.
Processing – Raw fish and shellfish reach commercial processors via delivery by sea to
processing plants, custom unloading at transshipment points, and trucking. Processors
transform the raw material into a variety of live, fresh whole, frozen whole, fillet, steak,
smoked, canned, roe, and other products.
Karnataka has got a long coastline of 300 kms, 27000 sq km of continental shelf area &
87000 sq km of exclusive economic zone. The resource potential is estimated at `4.25
lakhs ton p.a.
It is proposed to procure the fish from the following landing centres.
1. Goa

42. 42
2. Uttar Kannada – Karwar, Kumta, Murudeshwar, Bhatkal.
3. Udupi – Gangolli, Malpe.
4. Dakshina Kannada – Mangalore.
5. Kerala – Kasargod, Kochin.
The proprietor was having close contact with the boat owners and fish traders located in
the various landing sites indicated above.
The fish availability is restricted to the August to April in each year. Thus the unit will be
undertaking the process only during the above months. However, the marketing will be
done throughout the year as at the end of the landing period, adequate quantity of product
are stored in the cold storage to effect the sale in the non seasonal period.
The unit will mainly concentrate in the export of the following variation of fishes.
S.No. Variety Name of the country to Export
1. Mackerel Gulf, Singapore, Malaysia
2. Tuna Singapore, Malaysia
3. Cuttle fish, Squid European countries & Gulf.
4. Prawns Japan & USA
5. Ribbon fish China
6. Seer fish China, Gulf, Singapore
7. Sardine China, Gulf.
Manufacturing Process
Processing:
Fish is a highly perishable item. It has become imperative to process scientifically for
batter shelf life.
The following 2 process lines are adopted for preservation & value addition.
a) Canning
b) Freezing
The concern will be engaged in freezing process.
The fish are procured from the various fish landing centers. They are packed in the
plastic crates, iced and transported by the refrigerated vans to the factory site. They are
first stored in chilled room. They are thoroughly washed & graded according to sizes like
Biggest, Bigger, Medium, Small & tiny sizes. They are the transferred to processing hall.
Some of the fishes like Mackerel are straight away frozen as it is. In certain other types of

43. 43
fish, beheaded, fins are removed & gutted. They are again washed to remove the blood
and any other material. The fishes are packed is consumer pack. They are taken to
freezers for freezing.
Fish contains around 75% by weight –water. The process of freezing converts most of the
water in to ice. During the freezing process, the temperature of fish is lowered to (-) 30`C.
Mr. X Pvt. Ltd. is a company which is going to establish in Marine Food Industry. It is
like a Greenfield Project because here everything starts from the scrap but not the
improvisation of the existing unit.

We may observe that the deficit varies from month to month and even for some months
there is surplus. The deficit is maximum for the month of October 2011. The peak deficit
shall be used as base for assessing the working capital requirement.
The peak deficit is `50.31 lakhs and the working capital limit shall be 75% of the above.
It may be noted that the stocks are in the custody of the borrower. Hence Cash Credit
limit is not possible. The firm is entitled to overdraft (OD) limit which is secured.
1.2 Statement of the Problem
The entire study is done to know the “Working Capital Management at Canara Bank”.
The study is conducted at Mangalore Circle Office. The study is not confined to
Mangalore circle office. It is the study of whole Canara Bank operations with particular
reference to “Working Capital Management”.
Working capital management being an integral part of overall corporate management it is
one of the powerful tools of financial performance analysis.
.
1.3 Objectives of the study:
To know about the three criteria (turn over method, MPBF method and cash
budget method) which are used to evaluate the working capital loan proposal
To understand the financial performance of the Canara Bank
To know the financial strategies adopted by the Canara Bank
To compare the present and previous year‟s performance of Canara Bank
To study the liquidity, profitability position of bank through ratio analysis for the
last 5 years.

50. 50
1.4 Scope of the study:
The study covers all the components of working capital. The study of working capital
management is limited to canara Bank and there is no comparison with another Bank.
1.5 Methodology
Data collection
The study is undertaken by using both primary and secondary sources.
Primary Sources:
Only the bank officials of advance section are considered as respondents. So the response
of those officials is much relevant than the response of other branch officials.
Secondary sources:
The major source of data for this project was collected from certain projects handled by
Circle Office, Mangalore, Canara Bank Manuals, Profit and loss accounts, balance sheet
and some information collected through the internet.
1.6 Limitations of the study
Time constraint was one of the main limitations of the study because it is difficult
to study fully working capital method followed by the bank within only 8 weeks,
in-spite of that I also tried my level best to cover maximum portion of subject of
study.
The study was done using the information contained in the Canara Bank‟s
working capital manual.
The limitation of ratio analysis is itself a limitation in achieving the set objective
Information is partially based on secondary data and hence authenticity of the
study can be visualized and is measurable

Chapter 2
ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL RATIOS
The financial statements analysis is largely a study on relationship among the various
financial factors in a business as disclosed by a single set of statements and a study of the
trend of this factor as shown in a series of statements. There is no doubt that financial
statements contain a large number of accounting data or figures. So, to make the finance
statements meaningful to a common man, the financial statements have to be analyzed
and interpreted.
The analysis of working capital management helps to ascertain the liquidity position of
the Bank i.e. the ability of the Bank to repay its current liabilities out of its current assets.
Ratio analysis is the most commonly used techniques, which deals particularly with each
and every aspects of working capital management. Ratio analysis provides guides and
clues particularly in sporting trends towards better or proper performance, and its finding
out significant deviation for any average or relatively applicable standards.
In the technique, for each aspect of analysis certain ratios are computed and then results
are compared with the standard or average.
Importance of ratio analysis
The inter relationship that exists among the different items appeared in the financial statement, are
revealed by accounting ratios. Ratio analysis of firm‟s financial statements is of interest to
number of parties. The importance of ratio analysis is discussed below:
Aids to measure general efficiency
Aids to measure financial solvency
Aids to forecasting and planning
Facilitate decision making
Aids in correlative action
Aids in intra firm comparison
Act as a good communication
Evaluation of efficiency

2.1 Analysis of gross working capital of Canara bank
Gross working capital refers to the Bank‟s investment in current asset. Therefore it is
nothing but total of current assets. The gross working capital is evaluated by finding out
the ratio of each component of current assets with the total asset. These ratios indicate in
which component of current assets excess funds and to what extend efforts can be made
to design suitable strategies and policies to release such funds for better elsewhere.
Components of gross working capital:
i) Cash and bank
ii) Sundry debtors
iii) Loans and advances
iv) Inventory
The components of gross working capital carry a great importance in the study of
working capital management because slight change in the above item will bring a change
in the value of gross working capital. In above component cash and inventories play a
very important role. Because cash is the sun liquid equipment where as inventories is
considered as a barriers of liquidity so, is the amount of inventories is increasing year by
year. That will create a problem in liquidity of the firm whereas; more cash will be
favorable for the firm. The increase or decrease in the above components of gross
working capital is shown below.
Gross working capital = cash in hand + cash at bank + loans & advances

Chart 2.1: Showing ratio of gross working capital changes
From the above graph we can arrive at a conclusion that the Bank had maintained
sufficient working capital for smooth running of the business. We can find an increase in
the gross working capital from the year 2007 to the year 2011.

From the above graph we can draw a conclusion that, in the early years the Bank had
maintained a good cash and bank balance wherein it could easily clear off its liabilities.
But were years passed bit decreased in balance. In the last year, since the Bank is doing
well in business we can assume that the balances might increase in the upcoming years.

From the above graph I conclude that the portion of loans and advances in the gross
working capital was more and it shows a high liquidity position of the bank. Here ratio
remains more or less same over the years but shows a huge increase in the years 2009-10.
2.4 Net working capital
Net working capital is nothing but the difference b/w current asset and current liabilities.
When current liabilities increases the working capital decreases. A high working capital is
not good for a company because it deficits the excessive blocking up of capital in
inventories and debtors. This will lead to reduce profitability.
Net working capital= current assets – current liabilities

Chart 2 4: showing the changes in Net working capital
The Net working capital shows an increasing trend throughout this period of study.
Because of increased investment in current assets to maintain sound net working capital
to meet its liabilities. In the year 2006-07 it was 103228.37 but it increased to 235370.64
in the 2010-11. Excess of current asset over current liabilities is called as net working
capital.
2.5 Current ratio
The current ratio is the calculating by dividing current asset by liabilities. The current
ratio measures the firm short-term solvency. Generally the ratio varies from company to
company. Ratio of 2:1 may be considered being satisfactory for industrial and
commercial business concern. It is expressed as;
Current ratio= Current asset / current liabilities.

Chart 2.5: showing current ratio
From the graph it is evident that the current ratio of Bank is as per the required standards
i.e. 2:1 which indicates the sound liquidity position. There was a slight downfall in the
value of increase in current assets in the year 2007-08 and after the fall the bank managed
to raise the level of current assets in the later years. From this I conclude that the bank has
sufficient current assets to clear off the current liabilities
2.6 Liquidity/acid test/quick ratio
The ratio is similar to the current ratio concept that it exclude inventory from the
numerators of the ratio. Among the current asset inventory is generally the least liquid
asset as it needs more times to conversion this other asset. The term liquid asset refers to
current asset, which can be converted is to cash immediately or at a short notice. It is
computes as follows.

Chart2.6: Showing quick ratio
It is clear from the above table that the quick ratio is above the required standard of 1:1
throughout period of study. Here the quick assets are continuously increased from the
year 2006-07, but the portion of increment varies from year to year. I conclude that the
liquidity position of the Bank is sound. Because its quick liabilities are decreased in later
years and we can assume that it continues in the future years.
2.7 Absolute Liquid / Super quick ratio
It is the ratio of absolute liquid assets include cash in hand, cash at bank and short term
investment. (Loans & advances)

The absolute liquid ratio is fluctuating throughout the study period. In the year 2008-09
the absolute liquid ratio reaches to minimum of 1.24%. But in the present year it reaches
to 3.93% which is so high as compared to all previous years. This is mainly due to
increasing cash position, by observing the ratio; it is clear that the Bank is having better
liquidity position.
2.8 Current asset turnover ratio
Current asset turnover ratio between current assets and turnover of sales; this indicates
the contribution of current asset to sales. There is no standard current asset turnover

assets. It is expressed as:
Net sales or sales turnover is the total amount sold within a stipulated time period, usually
12 months. Sales turnover is usually expressed in monetary terms but can also be in
total units of stock or products sold. In bank bank turn over means total deposit (debit
amount) and total withdrawal (credit amount) in a specific period of a time. Generally bank
turn over will be based on the deposit amount and loans sanctioned
Current asset turnover = Net sales / current assets

that it increases to 0.11% in the year 2007-08 and 2008-09 and later in the year 2009-10 it
again decreased and continues. Low current asset turnover ratio suggests the current
assets are not being effectively.

2.9 Net working capital turnover ratio
This ratio indicates whether or not working capital has been effectively utilized in making
sales. The method used to measure this effectiveness of net working capital is to divide
the net sales by net working capital. The improvement in the utilization of net working
capital is accessed by examining the behavior of net working capital turnover ratio over a
period of time. A very high turnover of working capital indicated that working capital is
in sufficient for the given volume of business. It is computed as follows.
Net working capital turnover ratio = net sales / Net working capital

The high current ratio shows that the bank is primarily engaged in trading activities and
does not have heavy investment in fixed assets. The Bank makes huge investment in
current assets than fixed assets or in long-term investment because to meet the day to day
requirement of the Bank is much important.

Table showed a fluctuating a trend in all the 5 years. But in the current year it is
increased. In the year 2007-08 & 2008-09 it has been very low, due to large amounts of
current obligations and such balance. The cash to sales ratio in 2008-09 is lower because
off increase in expenses and then onwards the cash to current liabilities ratio increases.
That means Bank has sufficient cash to meet its current liabilities.

From the above table it is clear that the cash turnover ratio is very high compared to the
standard ratio of 10:1 for two years. This indicates that the cash resources of the Bank are
utilized very effectively. That means bank gets immediately sales receipt or within a
credit period sanctioned to the debtors
2.15 Return on Total Assets:
Return on total asset ratio is the ratio of net profit to total resources or total assets. Return,
here, means net profit after taxes, i.e., final net profit. Total resources or total asset means
all realizable assets, including intangible assets, if they are realizable.
The ratio is, usually, expressed as a percentage. It is calculated as follows:

The inclusion of interest is conceptually sound because total assets have been financed
from the “pool” of funds supplied by the creditors and the owners. The objective of
computing the „return on total assets‟ is to find out how effectively the funds pooled
together have been used. Hence, it will be proper to include the interest on computing the
return on total assets.

The Net Profit Ratio of Canara bank is higher in 2008-09 is 18% (0.18) and in the year
2007-08 lower it is 11% (0.11) so the net profit ratio is satisfactory. Bank is having an
advantageous position and economic condition is good. Therefore we can say that the net
profit ratio is fair enough to the bank.
