Description
The development of Industries depends on several factors such as Human, Technology, Quality, Marketing and Financial among which the financial aspect assumes a significant role in determining the growth of Industries. The value of a firm is determined by four factors- its capacity to generate cash flows from assets in place, the expected growth rate of these cash flows, the length of time it will take for the firm to reach stable growth rate and the cost of capital.

A Comparative and Analytical Study of the
Financial Performance Evaluation of
Automobile Industry in India
(with special reference to Maruti Udyog Ltd.&
Hyundai Motors India Ltd.)
Statement of Problem
The development of Industries depends on several factors such as Human, Technology,
Quality, Marketing and Financial among which the financial aspect assumes a significant
role in determining the growth of Industries. The value of a firm is determined by four
factors- its capacity to generate cash flows from assets in place, the expected growth rate
of these cash flows, the length of time it will take for the firm to reach stable growth rate
and the cost of capital.
The success or failure of any organization depends on the efficiency with which it
works and achieves its objectives. Thus there arises a need to evaluate the performance of
any organization. The study will give an insight into the concept of performance appraisal
in sample units with respect to various financial indicators.
Managers who focus on building shareholder value will create healthier companies
that who do not. Healthier companies will in turn, lead to stronger economies, higher
living standards and more career and business opportunities.
Evaluating Performance is necessary to understand its strengths and weaknesses to
know the risks and rewards and to find out what changes to make, to achieve higher
returns and if possible with less risk. The purpose of measuring performance evaluation is
not to know the business is performing but to enable it to perform better.
3
Financial Performance mean a general measure of a company’s financial health over a
given period of time, and it can be used to compare similar companies across the same
industry or to compare industries or sectors in aggregation.
The Purpose of Performance Evaluation is to examine the past and current
financial data so that a company’s performance and financial position can be measured
and evaluated and future risks and potential can be estimated. Ratio Analysis is the most
common form of performance evaluation of any company. It provides relative measures
of the firm’s conditions and performance.
Parameters for Evaluating Performance Evaluation of Sample Units
under Study (Maruti Udyog Ltd. & Hyundai Motors India Ltd.)
The criteria of evaluation of performance vary from one unit of organization to other.
Financial Parameters along with market value based models will be used to evaluate the
performance evaluation of sample units under the study:
? Average Growth Rate
? Sales
? Market Capitalization
? Research & Development
? Cash Flow
? Liquidity Ratio (To know the short term financial position of a company)
? Profitability Ratio (To know the overall performance of a company)
? Efficiency or Activity or Turnover Ratio (To know the efficiency of utilizing
company’s assets)
4
? Leverage or Capital Structure Ratio (To know the long term financial position of
a company)
? The values of market capitalization and sales will represent the valuation
dimension from the perspective of the stock market performance and operating
performance.
? The central focus will be on the cash flows because they represent the actual
economic benefits generated by the assets.
? The Tobin’s ‘q’ Ratio is based on the investment opportunities of companies.
Tobin q defined as the ratio of market value of the firm’s assets to there
replacement cost.
? Liquidity Ratios measure the firm’s ability to meet current obligations. Current
Ratio & Quick Ratio will be applied to know the short term financial position of a
company.
? Leverage Ratio is helpful in understanding the long-term financial position of the
firm. Leverage is generally measured by debt-equity ratio.
? Efficiency or Activity Ratios are employed to evaluate the efficiency with which
the firm manages and utilizes its assets. Activity Ratios involve a relationship
between sales and assets. A proper balance between sales and assets generally
reflects that assets are managed well.
? Profitability Ratios measure overall performance and effectiveness of the firm.
? Market Vale Ratios attempts to measure the economics status of the organization
within the marketplace. Investors use these ratios to evaluate and monitor the
progress of their investment.

A Comparative and Analytical Study of the
Financial Performance Evaluation of
Automobile Industry in India
(with special reference to Maruti Udyog Ltd.&
Hyundai Motors India Ltd.)
Statement of Problem
The development of Industries depends on several factors such as Human, Technology,
Quality, Marketing and Financial among which the financial aspect assumes a significant
role in determining the growth of Industries. The value of a firm is determined by four
factors- its capacity to generate cash flows from assets in place, the expected growth rate
of these cash flows, the length of time it will take for the firm to reach stable growth rate
and the cost of capital.
The success or failure of any organization depends on the efficiency with which it
works and achieves its objectives. Thus there arises a need to evaluate the performance of
any organization. The study will give an insight into the concept of performance appraisal
in sample units with respect to various financial indicators.
Managers who focus on building shareholder value will create healthier companies
that who do not. Healthier companies will in turn, lead to stronger economies, higher
living standards and more career and business opportunities.
Evaluating Performance is necessary to understand its strengths and weaknesses to
know the risks and rewards and to find out what changes to make, to achieve higher
returns and if possible with less risk. The purpose of measuring performance evaluation is
not to know the business is performing but to enable it to perform better.
3
Financial Performance mean a general measure of a company’s financial health over a
given period of time, and it can be used to compare similar companies across the same
industry or to compare industries or sectors in aggregation.
The Purpose of Performance Evaluation is to examine the past and current
financial data so that a company’s performance and financial position can be measured
and evaluated and future risks and potential can be estimated. Ratio Analysis is the most
common form of performance evaluation of any company. It provides relative measures
of the firm’s conditions and performance.
Parameters for Evaluating Performance Evaluation of Sample Units
under Study (Maruti Udyog Ltd. & Hyundai Motors India Ltd.)
The criteria of evaluation of performance vary from one unit of organization to other.
Financial Parameters along with market value based models will be used to evaluate the
performance evaluation of sample units under the study:
? Average Growth Rate
? Sales
? Market Capitalization
? Research & Development
? Cash Flow
? Liquidity Ratio (To know the short term financial position of a company)
? Profitability Ratio (To know the overall performance of a company)
? Efficiency or Activity or Turnover Ratio (To know the efficiency of utilizing
company’s assets)
4
? Leverage or Capital Structure Ratio (To know the long term financial position of
a company)
? The values of market capitalization and sales will represent the valuation
dimension from the perspective of the stock market performance and operating
performance.
? The central focus will be on the cash flows because they represent the actual
economic benefits generated by the assets.
? The Tobin’s ‘q’ Ratio is based on the investment opportunities of companies.
Tobin q defined as the ratio of market value of the firm’s assets to there
replacement cost.
? Liquidity Ratios measure the firm’s ability to meet current obligations. Current
Ratio & Quick Ratio will be applied to know the short term financial position of a
company.
? Leverage Ratio is helpful in understanding the long-term financial position of the
firm. Leverage is generally measured by debt-equity ratio.
? Efficiency or Activity Ratios are employed to evaluate the efficiency with which
the firm manages and utilizes its assets. Activity Ratios involve a relationship
between sales and assets. A proper balance between sales and assets generally
reflects that assets are managed well.
? Profitability Ratios measure overall performance and effectiveness of the firm.
? Market Vale Ratios attempts to measure the economics status of the organization
within the marketplace. Investors use these ratios to evaluate and monitor the
progress of their investment.
