SUGGESTION
Tata motors can have a reasonable gross profit to ensure adequate coverage for
operating expenses.
Tata motors can retain their profitability position by making efficient employment
of their available resources.
The company can invest more in current assets than in working capital.
The company can improve the net profit by reducing interest and financial charges.
The company may maintain its planning and control techniques in order to regulate
and optimize the use of cash balance.
The company should try to keep the costs lower and increase its sales.
24
PART II (C)
CONCLUSION
The study on financial performance analysis of Tata Motors is stated in this report,
this company has revealed the great deal of their financial aspects for two years.
However, the profitability position of the company is not much better, that the
company, has to decrease the cost of production and keep the cost lower or increase
the sales price and also need to improve the efficiency in converting sales into actual
price.
Net profit margin which measures how profitable a company’s sales are after
deducting all expenses interest, taxes & preferred stock dividends declines from 6.33
to 0.97 during the given period, which implies lower level of profitability of
company.
Earning taxes, which are available for common stockholders, were also low as
compared to the sales volume of the company.
This is due to effect of high expenses on the cost of goods sold and other expenses.
Finally the company is loss making or rather we can say decreasing their profitability
but they have good future opportunities, it has took carefully at controlling the costs
of goods sold and reduce its expenses to avoid facing difficult financial conditions in
the future.
