Auditors:
Deloitte Haskins & Sells are the auditors of Tata Steel. They have been their auditors since a
long time. There have been no negative comments by the auditor in the audit report. The
audit report doesnt recommend anything to present/potential investors as the duty of an
auditor is to give the true and fair view of the financial position of the company and not its
prospects. The auditors were paid Rs. 6.89 crores compensation in total (including cost-audit
fees, fees for services of auditors, for taxation, matters, out of pocket expenses).
Fixed Assets:
Out of total assets, 38% comprises fixed assets (tangible, intangible and capital work-inprogress). Tangible assets contribute Rs. 24,064.43 crores (56%) and intangible assets
contribute Rs. 201.32 crores (0.5 %) to the total fixed assets. The company has made
additional investments in both tangible assets (Rs.1003.11 crores) as well as intangible assets
(Rs.125.51 crores).
The company has also discarded and sold some assets during the year. The loss in such
sale/scrapping was Rs. 48.61 crores
Depreciation policy is different for different assets. For the year 2013-14, depreciation
constitutes about 4.5 % of the total revenue. Following is the policy regarding depreciation
(i) Capital assets whose ownership does not vest with the Company are depreciated over their
estimated useful life or five years, whichever is less.
(ii) In respect of other assets, depreciation is provided on a straight line basis applying the
rates specified in Schedule XIV to the Companies Act, 1956 or rates based on estimated
useful life whichever is higher. However, asset value upto Rs. 25,000 is fully depreciated in
the year of acquisition. The details of estimated life for each category of asset are as under:
(a) Buildings and Roads 30 to 62 years
(b) Plant and Machinery 3 to 30 years
(c) Railway Sidings 21 years
16
17
Inventories:
The company holds various types of inventories which include:
(a) Raw materials
(b) Work-in-progress
(c) Finished and semi-finished goods
(d) Stock-in-trade of goods acquired for trading
(e) Stores and spares
The total investments in inventories during the current year is Rs. 6007.81 crores. Inventory
has been rising continuously since last five years. As compared to last year, it increased by
around 14%.
Long-term Borrowings:
The sources of long term borrowings are broadly classified into SECURED and
UNSECURED loans. Secured loans are those loans that are protected by an asset or collateral
of some sort. If the borrower defaults in repaying the debt, the creditor takes the possession of
the asset.
The sources of long term borrowings include
18
During the last five years, out of the total borrowings, the composition hasnt changed much.
Unsecured loans contribute more than 90% to the total long term borrowings. Even, the
borrowings are not only made in INR but also in various currencies which include US dollars,
Japanese Yen, British Pound Sterling, Euros.
As against secured loans, Tata Steel have offered different assets as securities. Loan from
Joint Plant Committee Steel Development Fund is secured by mortgages on all present and
future fixed assets, excluding land and buildings mortgaged in favor of Government of India,
land and buildings, plant and machinery and movables of the Tubes Division and the
Bearings Division mortgaged in favor of the financial institutions and banks, assets of the
Ferro Alloys Plant at Bamnipal mortgaged in favor of State Bank of India and assets of Cold
Rolling Complex (West) at Tarapur and a floating charge on other properties and assets
(excluding investments) of the Company, subject to the prior floating charge in favor of State
Bank of India and other banks.
During the year 2013-14, long term borrowings (Rs.23,808.09 crores ) contribute about 22%
to the total assets (Rs.1,11,040.41 crores). There was an increase in total long term
borrowings by about Rs. 240 crores as compared to 2012-13. This was due to raising of new
loans as well as repayment of some existing debts. Two new loans were taken from banks
worth $ 200 million (Rs. 1,198 crores) and Rs. 2,000 crores respectively whereas,
installments of many loans taken in terms of Euros were repaid along with loan of Rs. 1,500
crores.
With increase in the long term borrowings, the interest burden on the company increases. In
order to fulfill the interest obligations, the company needs to earn profit at a rate higher than
the interest rates on loan. Tata Steel was able to do just the same.
Cash generated from operating activities is Rs. 12,432.80 crores during the year whereas the
interest expense for the year is Rs.1820.58 crores. Thus, Tata Steel is generating enough
operating profits to pay off the interests.

19
Other Aspects:
The company has invested a lot of resources in current as well as non-current investments.
Long-term investments are carried at cost less provision for diminution other than temporary,
if any, in value of such investments. Current investments are carried at lower of cost and fair
value. Out of total assets of Rs.111040.41 crores (2013-14), Rs.52318.56 crores has been
invested in non-current investments and Rs.2343.24 crores have been invested in current
investments. This shows that investments contribute around 49 % to the total assets.Trade
investments stand at Rs. 52,318.35 crores.
Tata Steel has made investments in various instruments as follows1. Investments in Equity Instruments (Subsidiary companies, Joint ventures,
Associate companies, etc.)
2. Investment in preference shares (Subsidiary companies)
3. Investment in Debentures/Bonds (Subsidiary companies, Associate
companies)

As compared to last year, current year profit has increased to Rs. 6412.19 crores from Rs.
5062.97. The increase of Rs. 150 crores was the result of increase in revenue from operations
combined with the decrease in consumption of raw materials. Inspite of revenue from
operations increased by around Rs.4000 crores, the consumption of raw materials decreased
by around Rs. 200 crores.
Tata Steel has generated Rs.12432.80 crores from operating activities during 2013-14. This
indicates a healthy business. However, there has been a net decrease in Cash & cash
equivalents because of various investments and purchase of fixed assets. Also, repayment of
borrowings as well as interest and dividend payment led to a major outflow of cash. Thus,
there is a big difference between operating profits and cash flows.

Ratio Analysis:
1. Current ratio: The current ratio has been continuously decreasing since last five
years. This may be a cause of worry as the company may face short term liquidity
problems as current liabilities are increasing and current assets are decreasing. For the
current year, it is well below the standard of 2:1.
Current ratio of JSW stands at 0.82 and that of SAIL is 0.79. So Tata Steels ratio of
0.61 is quite below the competitors.
2. Quick ratio: As current ratio is showing a decreasing trend, quick ratio will also
follow the same trend. It is more serious issue as inventories form a major part of
current assets and cannot be liquidated in short period. Here also, it stands at 0.29 as
against the desirable ratio of 1:1.
In quick ratio also, the company lags behind its competitors. JSW stands at 0.71 and
SAIL stands at 0.62, whereas Tata Steel stands at mere 0.29.
3. Proprietary ratio: It shows the contribution of owners funds in total assets. The
owners funds have been increasingly contributing to the total assets and it stands at
around 55% which is a healthy sign. This means that most of the assets are purchased
through proprietors funds.
4. Return on assets: During the last five years, it shows as uneven trend. It increased in
2010-11 but reduced for the next two years and again increased in the last year. For
the current year, it stands at 5.77 % of total assets.
Return on assets of JSW is way above at 14.08% than that of Tata Steel (5.77%).
SAILs return on assets is 5.07%.
5. Earnings per share: In the last five years, EPS has shown uneven trends too. For
2010-11, it increased and for 2011-12, it decreased. Again, 2012-13 it increased to Rs.
74.54 and reduced to Rs. 64.21 in 2013-14.
As compared to competitors, Tata Steels EPS is Rs. 64.21 whereas that of JSW &
SAIL is Rs. 54.05 and Rs. 6.33.
6. Price-earnings ratio: Price earnings ratio showed a decreasing trend from 2009-10 to
2012-12. But during 2013-14, it increased to 6.13 as compared to 4.19 in the previous
year.
7. NP ratio: Net profit ratio is calculated so as to measure the profitability of the
company. If we look at the last five years, NP ratio is decreasing continuously. Even
though revenues are increasing, expenses are increasing at a faster rate. Thus, increase
in revenues has been off-set by the increasing expenses. There has been a marginal
increase in the last year owing to reduction in consumption of raw materials and
purchase of semi-finished and finished goods.

8. Return on capital employed: As the profit decreased, the return on capital also
decreased till 2012-13. However, as NP increased in the last year, the return on capital
also increased to more than 13 %.
9. Debt-equity ratio: Debt-equity ratio shows the amount of debt in the business against
per unit of share capital. Lower the debt-equity ratio, lower the interest burden on the
company and higher the profitability.
10. Return on shareholders equity: Return on shareholders funds reduced due to
reduction in profits. It shows the same trend as return on capital employed. In the year
2013-14, it increased marginally to 10.49 %.
11. Cash ratio: This again shows the liquidity position of the company. The current
liabilities has been piling up but the cash and cash equivalents have been continuously
decreasing. The firm generates cash from operating activities but due to purchase of
fixed assets and investments, cash balance has reduced from last year.
12. Interest coverage ratio: It shows as to how many times interest can be paid from
PBIT. As the long term borrowings are repaid, the companys interest burden reduces.
Here, as the revenues have increased, PBIT has also increased. Interest expenses
havent increased at that high rate and thus interest coverage ratio has also increased.
13. Asset turnover ratio: It measures the efficiency of the management in utilization of
assets. Higher the assets turnover ratio, more is the utilization of assets. Here, assets
turnover is marginally increasing except in 2010-11. In 2013-14, it stands at 0.38
which means that assets are not utilized as it should have been utilized.
14. Book value: Net worth of the company is increasing every year, but new shares are
not issued after 2010-11. Thus, book value of the existing shares keeps on increasing.
