and accurate reports on each of the components of working capital and awareness of the

In the analysis for harti $eletech &imited, a harti *roup 'ompany it was found that the
working capital has increased which could be mainly due to increased sales. $he *ross
:perating 'ycle declined significantly but the reduction was nullified due to the reduction in
inventory conversion period. $his is why we see that 2et operating 'ycle for last two years is
almost identical. $he main areas of emphasis were work in progress conversion period and
creditors conversion period. Debtors conversion period reduced but work in progress and
creditors conversion period increased. Few suggestions that are recommended for better
management of working capital are reducing intercorporate deposits and loans, reducing
finished goods inventory, increment in creditors payment period etc.

A%%roa3hes to /orking 3a%ital Management
4orking capital management takes place on two levels
#atio analysis can be used to monitor overall trends in working capital and to identify areas
re?uiring closer management.
$he individual components of working capital can be effectively managed by using various
techni?ues and strategies.
4hen considering these techni?ues and strategies, companies need to recognie that each
department has a uni?ue mi5 of working capital components. $he emphasis that needs to be
placed on each component varies according to the companies. For e5ample, some companies
have significant inventory levels others have little if any inventory.
Furthermore, working capital management is not an end in itself. It is an integral part of the
company3s overall management. $he needs of efficient working capital management must be
considered in relation to other aspects of the company3s financial and nonfinancial
performance.
OM+ON1N(S
$he term working capital refers to the amount of capital which is readily available to an
organiation. $hat is, working capital is the difference between resources in cash or readily
convertible into cash -'urrent "ssets0 and organiational commitments for which cash will soon
be re?uired -'urrent &iabilities0.
'urrent "ssets are resources which are in cash or will soon be converted into cash in the ordinary
course of business.
'urrent &iabilities are commitments which will soon re?uire cash settlement in the ordinary
course of business.

4orking capital cycle involves conversions and rotation of various constituentsJcomponents of the
working capital. Initially Ccash3 is converted into raw materials.
'ash flows in a cycle into, around and out of a business. It is the businessEs life blood and every
managerEs primary task is to help keep it flowing and to use the cash flow to generate profits. If a
business is operating profitably, then it should, in theory, generate cash surpluses. If it doesnEt
generate surpluses, the business will eventually run out of cash and e5pire.
$he faster a business e5pands the more cash it will need for working capital and investment. $he
cheapest and best sources of cash e5ist as working capital right within business. *ood management
of working capital will generate cash will help improve profits and reduce risks. $he cost of
providing credit to customers and holding stocks can represent a substantial proportion of a firmEs
total profits.
$he usage of fi5ed assets result in value additions, the raw materials get converted into work in
process and then into finished goods. 4hen sold on credit, the finished goods assume the form ofdebtors who give the business cash on due date. $hus Ccash3 assumes its original form again at the
end of one such working capital cycle but in the course it passes through various other forms of
current assets too. $his is how various components of current assets keep on changing their forms
due to value addition. "s a result, they rotate and business operations continue. $hus, the working
capital cycle involves rotation of various constituents of the working capital. 4hile managing the
working capital, two characteristics of current assets should be kept in mind vi.
-i0 short life span, and
-ii0 Swift transformation into other form of current asset.
%ach constituent of current asset has comparatively very short life span. Investment remains in a
particular form of current asset for a short period. $he life span of current assets depends upon the
time re?uired in the activities of procurement production, sales and collection and degree of
synchroniation among them. " very short life span of current assets results into swift
2;
8/12/2019 Bharti Mobile -2
30/76
transformation into other form of current assets for a running business. $hese characteristics have
certain implications
i Decision regarding management of the working capital has to be taken fre?uently and on
a repeat basis.
ii. $he various components of the working capital are closely related and mismanagement of
any one
component adversely affects the other components too.
iii. $he difference between the present value and the book value of profit is not significant.
If money moves faster around the cycle -e.g. collect monies due from debtors more ?uickly0 or the
amount of money tied up is reduced -e.g. reduce inventory levels relative to sales0, the businesswill generate more cash or it will need to borrow less money to fund working capital. "s a
conse?uence, the cost of bank interest can be reduced or additional freemoney will be available to
support additional sales growth or investment. Similarly, if improved terms with suppliers are
negotiated e.g. longer credit or an increased credit limit, then freefinance to help fund future sales
can be effectively created.

'nventor= Management
Inventory includes all types of stocks. For effective working capital management, inventory needs
to be managed effectively. $he level of inventory should be such that the total cost of ordering and
holding inventory is the least. Simultaneously, stock out costs should be minimied. usiness,
therefore, should fi5 the minimum safety stock level, reorder level and ordering ?uantity so that
the inventory cost is reduced and its management becomes efficient.
"verage stockholding periods will be influenced by the nature of the business. For e5ample, a
fresh vegetable shop might turn over its entire stock every few days while a motor factor would be
much slower as it may carry a wide range of rarelyused spare parts in case somebody needs them.
many large manufacturers operate on a just-in-time-(I$0 basis whereby all the components to be
assembled on a particular today, arrive at the factory early that morning, no earlier no later. $his
helps to minimie manufacturing costs as (I$ stocks take up little space, minimie stockholding
and virtually eliminate the risks of obsolete or damaged stock. ecause (I$ manufacturers hold
stock for a very short time, they are able to conserve substantial cash. (I$ is a good model to strive
for as it embraces all the principles of prudent stock management.
Factors to be considered when determining optimum stock levels include
4hat are the projected sales of each productP
!ow widely available are raw materials, components etc.P
!ow long does it take for delivery by suppliersP

Detors Management
$he objective of any management policy pertaining to debtors would be to ensure that the benefits
arising due to the debtors are more than the cost incurred for debtors and the gap between benefits
and cost increases profits. "n effective control of receivables helps a great deal in property
managing it. %ach business should, therefore, try to find out average credit e5tended to its client
using the below given formula
reditors Management
'reditors are a vital part of effective cash management and should be managed carefully to
enhance the cash position. +urchasing initiates cash outflows and an overealous purchasing
function can create li?uidity problems.
$hus, the following factors should be considered
i. $he purchasing authority in the company and whether it is tightly managed or spread
among a number of people.
ii. $he purchase ?uantities should be geared to demand forecasts.
iii. :rder ?uantities should be used that take into account stockholding and purchasing
costs.
iv. $he cost of carrying stock should be known.
88
8/12/2019 Bharti Mobile -2

v. Dependency on a single supplier should be avoided and facilities like best discounts, credit
terms etc. should be used from alternative suppliers.
vi. Suppliers3 returns policy should be considered.
ash Management
'ash is the most li?uid current asset. It is of vital importance to the daily operations of business.
4hile the proportion of assets held in the form of cash is very small, its efficient management is
crucial to the solvency of the business. $herefore, planning cash and controlling its use are very
important tasks.
'ash budgeting is a useful device for this purpose.

$o assist in identifying areas re?uiring closer management.
$hree key points need to be taken into account when analying financial ratios
$he results are based on highly summaried information. 'onse?uently, situations which
re?uire control might not be apparent, or situations which do not warrant significant effort might
be unnecessarily highlighted
Different departments face very different situations. 'omparisons between them, or with
global ideal ratio values, can be misleading
#atio analysis is somewhat onesided favorable results mean little, whereas unfavorable
results are usually significant.

!owever, financial ratio analysis is valuable because it raises ?uestions and indicates directions for
more detailed investigation.

urrent Ratio
urrent Assets divided by urrent 0iailities
$he working capital ratio -or current ratio0 attempts to measure the level of li?uidity, that is, the
level of safety provided by the e5cess of current assets over current liabilities.
Fui3k Ratio
0iGuid Assetsdivided by urrent 0iailities
$his is another measure of li?uidity. It looks at the number of days that li?uid assets -for e5ample,inventory0 could service daily operating e5penses -including salaries0.
Sto3k (urnover Ratio
ost of Sales divided by Average Sto3k 0evel
$his ratio applies only to finished goods. It indicates the speed with which inventory is soldor, to
look at it from the other angle, how long inventory items remain on the shelves. It can be used forthe inventory balance as a whole, for classes of inventory, or for individual inventory items.

Detor (urnover Ratio
$here is a close relationship between debtors and credit sales to third parties -that is, sales other
than to the 'rown0. If sales increase, debtors will increase, and conversely, if sales decrease
debtors will decrease.

Average Detors
$he debtor ratio does not solve the collection problem, but it acts as an indicator that an adverse
trend is developing. #emedial action can then be instigated.
reditor (urnover Ratio
It e5presses the relationship between credit purchases and the liability to creditors. It can be stated
as the number of days that credit purchases are carried on the books.

In the analysis for harti $eletech &imited, a harti *roup 'ompany it was found that the working
capital has increased which could be mainly due to increased sales. $he *ross :perating 'ycle
declined significantly but the reduction was nullified due to the reduction in inventory conversion
period. $his is why we see that 2et operating 'ycle for last two years is almost identical. $he main
areas of emphasis were work in progress conversion period and creditors conversion period.
Debtors conversion period reduced but work in progress and creditors conversion period increased.
Moreover, the interest and concentration of %%$%& has entirely shifted towards M:$:#:&"
trading business, which is not giving that much amount of returns that they were previously getting
from their basic and cordless manufactured phones, as their previous achievements clearly shows
that in the growing private service provider segment, harti $eletech commands a lion3s share of
over AB>.
Few suggestions that are recommended for better management of working capital are reducingintercorporate deposits and loans, reducing finished goods inventory, increment in creditors
payment period etc.
$hus, *ood management of working capital is part of good financial management. %ffective use of
working capital will contribute to the operational efficiency of a company, optimum use will help
