Strengths
• Since the company is based in India its competitive advantage is enhanced.
The Indian economy, despite weak economic indicators such as relatively
high rates of inflation, has low labor costs. The workforce has relatively high
skills levels in Information Technology. Couple these two elementstogether
and you have an operational basis that offers low-cost based, highly skilled
competitive advantage. Trained Indian personnel often speak very good
English and are sensitive to Western culture, underpinned by India's colonial
past.
• Infosys is in a strong financial position. The business turned over more than
$4 billion in 2008. This means that it has the capital to expand, and also the
basis to leverage potential investors.
• The company has bases in 44 global development centres, most of which are
located in India, although the company has offices in many developed and
developing nations. This means not only that Infosys is becoming a global
brand but also that it has the capability to support the global operations of
multinational clients.
Weaknesses
time, Infosys is missing out on lucrative business. Added to this is the fact
that its competitors do well in terms of securing the same Federal business
(and one should also take into account that many of its competitors are
domiciled in the US and there could be political pressure on the US
Government to award contracts to domestic organizations).
Opportunities
• There has been a trend over recent years for European and North American
companies to base some or all of their operation in India. This is called an
offshore service. Essentially there is a seamless link between domestic
operations and services hosted in India. Examples include
telecommunications companies such as British Telecom and banks such as
4
HSBC that have customer service and support centres based in India. Think
about the times that you have made calls to a support line to find that the
adviser is in Mumbai or Bangalore and not in your home market.
Threats
• India is not the only country that is undergoing rapid industrial expansion.
Competitors may come from countries such as China or Korea where there
are large pools of low-cost labor, and developing educational infrastructures
such as universities and technology colleges.
• Customers may switch to other offshore service companies in other
countries such as China or Korea.
• Other global players have realised that India has the benefit of low-cost,
highly-skilled labor that often speaks English and is culturally sensitive to
Western practices. As with all global IT players, Infosys has to compete for
skilled labor and this may have the effect of driving up wage levels, and
making it more difficult to recruit and retain staff.
With Infosys, clients are assured of a transparent business partner, world -class processes, speed
of execution and the power to stretch their IT budget by leveraging the Global Delivery Model
that Infosys pioneered.
Infosys has a global footprint with sales offices in 30 countries and development centres in India,
US, China, Australia, UK, Canada, Japan and many other countries. Infosys has over 105,000
employees of 73 nationalities.

INTRODUCTION
Financial statement is a collection of data organized according to logical & consistent accounting
procedures. Its purpose is to convey an understanding of some financial aspects of a business
firm. The term ‘financial analysis’, also known as analysis and interpretation of financial
statements refers to the process of determining financial strength & weakness of the firm by
establishing strategic relationship between the items of the balance sheet, profit & loss account
and other operative data.
Infosys Established in 1981, Infosys is a NASDAQ listed global consulting and IT services
company with more than 145,000 employees. From a capital of US$ 250, we have grown to
become a US$ 6.825 billion (LTM Q3- FY12 revenues) company with a market capitalization of
approximately US$ 30 billion.
In our journey of over 29 years, we have catalysed some of the major changes that have led to
India's emergence as the global destination for software services talent. We pioneered the Global
Delivery Model and became the first IT company from India to be listed on NASDAQ. Our
employee stock options program created some of India's first salaried millionaires.
OBJECTIVES
➢ To study the financial results of “INFOSYS”.
➢ To know the financial solvency of the company.
➢ To make comparative study with other year.
➢ To know the capacity of payment of dividend &interest.
➢ To know the managerial capacity.
➢ To know the financial strengths &weakness of the company.
➢ To know the profitability of the company in the form of ratios.
LIMITATIONS
➢ As the financial statements are prepared on the basis of going concern concept, it doesn’t
give exact position.
➢ Changes in accounting procedures by a firm may often make financial analysis
misleading.
➢ Analysis is only a means & not an end in itself.
METHODS TO BE USED
The data should be derived from the secondary source due to lack of time. The figures given in
financial statement are not of much use to the decision maker. These figures are to be analysed
over a period of time or in relation to other figures, so that significant conclusions could be
drawn regarding the strengths and witness of a business enterprise. The tools of financial
analysis help in this regard. The analysis and interpretation of financial statement is used to
determine the financial position & results of operation as well. The numbers of devices or tools
are used to study the relationship between different statements. An effort is made to use the
devices to which clearly analyse the position of the enterprise. The tools or devices are:
➢ Comparative statement.
➢ Common size statement.
➢ Ratio analysis.
➢ Trend analysis.
➢ Cash flow statement.
➢ Fund flow statement
➢ Cost volume profit analysis
OBJECTIVE:
To understand the information contained in financial statements with a view to know the
strength or weaknesses of the firm and to make forecast about the future prospects of the firm
and thereby enabling the financial analyst to take different decisions regarding the operations of
the firm.
RATIO ANALYSIS:
Fundamental Analysis has a very broad scope. One aspect looks at the general
(qualitative) factors of a company. The other side considers tangible and measurable factors
8
(quantitative). This means crunching and analyzing numbers from the financial statements. If
used in conjunction with other methods, quantitative analysis can produce excellent results.
Ratio analysis isn't just comparing different numbers from the balance sheet, income
statement, and cash flow statement. It's comparing the number against previous years, other
companies, the industry, or even the economy in general. Ratios look at the relationships
between individual values and relate them to how a company has performed in the past, and
might perform in the future.
MEANING OF RATIO:
A ratio is one figure express in terms of another figure. It is a mathematical yardstick that
measures the relationship two figures, which are related to each other and mutually
interdependent. Ratio is express by dividing one figure by the other related figure. Thus a ratio is
an expression relating one number to another. It is simply the quotient of two numbers. It can be
expressed as a fraction or as a decimal or as a pure ratio or in absolute figures as “so many
times”. As accounting ratio is an expression relating two figures or accounts or two sets of
account heads or group contain in the financial statements.
While a detailed explanation of ratio analysis is beyond the scope of this section, we will focus
on a technique, which is easy to use. It can provide you with a valuable investment analysis tool.
you can determine which company uses greater debt in the conduct of its business. A company
whose leverage ratio is higher than a competitors has more debt per equity. You can use this
information to make a judgment as to which company is a better investment risk.
However, you must be careful not to place too much importance on one ratio. You obtain a better
indication of the direction in which a company is moving when several ratios are taken as a
group.
OBJECTIVE OF RATIOS
FORMS OF RATIO:
A] As a pure ratio:
For example the equity share capital of a company is Rs. 20,00,000 & the preference
share capital is Rs. 5,00,000, the ratio of equity share capital to preference share capital is
20,00,000: 5,00,000 or simply 4:1.
10
B] As a rate of times:
In the above case the equity share capital may also be described as 4 times that of
preference share capital. Similarly, the cash sales of a firm are
Rs. 12,00,000 & credit sales are Rs. 30,00,000. so the ratio of credit sales to cash sales can be
described as 2.5 [30,00,000/12,00,000] or simply by saying that the credit sales are 2.5 times
that of cash sales.
C] As a percentage:
In such a case, one item may be expressed as a percentage of some other item. For
example, net sales of the firm are Rs.50,00,000 & the amount of the gross profit is Rs. 10,00,000,
then the gross profit may be described as 20% of sales [ 10,00,000/50,00,000]
1] Calculation of ratio
2] Comparing the ratio with some predetermined standards. The standard ratio may be the past
ratio of the same firm or industry’s average ratio or a projected ratio or the ratio of the most
successful firm in the industry. In interpreting the ratio of a particular firm, the analyst cannot
reach any fruitful conclusion unless the calculated ratio is compared with some predetermined
standard. The importance of a correct standard is oblivious as the conclusion is going to be based
on the standard itself.
11
Share holders/Investors:
Investor in the company will like to access the financial position of company where he is going
to invest. The first concern would be the security of the investment and then the return on the
investment in the form of interest and dividends. So, Investors concentrate on the firm’s financial
structure to the extent that influences the firm’s earning ability and risk.
Trade creditors:
They are interested in firm’s ability to meet its claims over a short period of time. So, their
analysis is usually confined to evaluation of firm’s liquidity position.
Employees:
Employees are interested in financial position the concern especially profitability. Their wages
and amount of fringe benefits are related to the volume of profits earned by the concern. The
employees make use of the information available in the financial statements.
Government:
Government is interested to know the overall financial health of the company. Various financial
statements published by the industrial units are used to calculate the ratios for determining short-
term, long-term and overall financial position of the firm. Government may base its future
policies on the basis of industrial information available from various units.
Management:
Management of the firm requires these statements for its own evaluation and decision making.
Moreover, it is responsible for the overall performances of the firm maintaining its solvency so
as to be able to meets short-term and long-term obligations to the creditors and at the same time
ensuring an adequate rate of return, consistent with safety of funds of its owner. Financial
12
analysis may not provide exact answer to the questions but it will be an indication of
forthcoming future.
Earnings per Share are calculated to find out overall profitability of the organization. Earnings
per Share represent earning of the company whether or not dividends are declared. If there is
only one class of shares, the earning per share are determined by dividing net profit by the
number of equity shares. EPS measures the profits available to the equity shareholders on each
share held.
Formula:
NPAT
Earnings per share =
Number of equity share
The higher EPS will attract more investors to acquire shares in the company as it indicates that
the business is more profitable enough to pay the dividends in time. But remember not all profit
earned is going to be distributed as dividends the company also retains some profits for the
business.
For Infosys the variance of EPS ratio for 5 years is -
Mar ' 09 Mar ' 08 Mar ' 07 Mar ' 06 Mar ' 05
13
Formula:
Total equity
14
DPS shows how much is paid as dividend to the shareholders on each share held.
Formula:
An expression for net asset value that represents a fund's (mutual, exchange-traded, and closed-
end) value per share. It is calculated by dividing the total net asset value of the fund or company
by the number of shares outstanding. It is also referred to as "book value per share". Calculated

2- Margin Ratios
(a) Core EBITDA Margin ratio :
EBITDA is the acronym for Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization.
EBITDA Margin refers to EBITDA divided by total revenue. EBITDA margin measures the
extent to which cash operating expenses use up revenue.
17
In financial and business accounting, earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) or operating
income is a measure of a firm's profitability that excludes interest and income tax expenses.[1]
EBIT = Operating Revenue – Operating Expenses (OPEX) + Non-operating Income
Operating Income = Operating Revenue – Operating Expenses
The Pre tax Margin measures how well a company can generate before-tax profits at the current
level of sales. Importance of Pretax Margin:
As with any margin, a high or increasing Pretax Margin is usually a positive sign, showing the
company is able to keep its operations costs low, while being able to pull in strong earnings. The
Pretax Margin varies greatly between industries, so you will have to compare the results for the
company you are analyzing to industry averages.
18
The after tax profit margin ratio tells you the profit per sales dollar after all expenses are
deducted from sales. In other words, the after tax profit margin ratio shows you the percentage of
net sales that remains after deducting the cost of goods sold and all other expenses including
income tax expense. The calculation is: Net Income after Tax /Net Sales.
The profit margin ratio is most useful when it is compared to 1) the same company’s profit
margin ratios from earlier accounting periods, 2) the same company’s targeted or planned profit
margin ratio for the current accounting period, and 3) the profit margin ratios of other companies
in the same industry during the same accounting period.
19
3- Performance Ratios
(a) ROA ratio :
The return on assets (ROA) percentage shows how profitable a company's assets are in
generating revenue.ROA can be computed as:
This number tells you what the company can do with what it has, i.e. how many dollars of
earnings they derive from each dollar of assets they control. Its a useful number for comparing
competing companies in the same industry. The number will vary widely across different
industries. Return on assets gives an indication of the capital intensity of the company, which
will depend on the industry; companies that require large initial investments will generally have
lower return on assets.
20
Return on Equity (ROE, Return on average common equity, return on net worth, Return on
ordinary shareholders' funds) (equity) measures the rate of return on the ownership interest
(shareholders' equity) of the common stock owners. It measures a firm's efficiency at generating
profits from every unit of shareholders' equity (also known as net assets or assets minus
liabilities). ROE shows how well a company uses investment funds to generate earnings growth.
Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) is used in finance as a measure of the returns that a
company is realising from its capital employed. It is commonly used as a measure for comparing
the performance between businesses and for assessing whether a business generates enough
returns to pay for its cost of capital.
21
(d)Asset Turnover:
Asset turnover is a financial ratio that measures the efficiency of a company's use of its assets in
generating sales revenue or sales income to the company.[1]
• "Sales" is the value of "Net Sales" or "Sales" from the company's income statement
• "Average Total Assets" is the value of "Total assets" from the company's balance sheet in
the beginning and the end of the fiscal period divided by 2.
22
(f)Working Capital/Sales(x)
The Working Capital Productivity Ratio helps explain how well the company is using its
working capital. Historically this has been a useful guide to investors or stakeholders seeking to
assess a company’s ability to manage cash. Any measure of cash management is important to
understand since a business needs cash to operate, this is the oxygen that businesses need to live.
This ratio is purported to have been established by the US management consultant George Stalk
while working in Japan. The ratio gives a possible indication of the relationship between
financial performance and process improvement.
The Working Capital Productivity ratio can be defined as:
Revenue
Working Capital Productivity Ratio =
(Current Assets – Current Liabilities)
23
3- Efficiency Ratios
(a)Fixed Capital/Sales(x)
(b)Receivable days
24
This ratio shows how many days it takes to pay accounts payable. This ratio is similar to
accounts payable turnover (above.) The business may be losing valuable creditor discounts by
not paying promptly.
The formula is:
365 days
_____________________
The P/E ratio (price-to-earnings ratio) of a stock (also called its "P/E", "PER", "earnings
multiple," or simply "multiple") is a measure of the price paid for a share relative to the annual
net income or profit earned by the firm per share.[2] It is a financial ratio used for valuation: a
higher P/E ratio means that investors are paying more for each unit of net income, so the stock is
more expensive compared to one with lower P/E ratio There are various P/E ratios, all defined
as:
25
(e)PCE ratio
A measure of price changes in consumer goods and services. Personal consumption
expenditures consist of the actual and imputed expenditures of households; the measure includes
data pertaining to durables, non-durables and services. It is essentially a measure of goods and
services targeted toward individuals and consumed by individuals
A ratio used to compare a stock's market value to its book value. It is calculated by dividing the
current closing price of the stock by the latest quarter's book value per share.
It is also known as the "price-equity ratio". Calculated as:
26
It is a comparison of the expected yield of one bond to the expected yield of another. A yield
ratio is important when deciding whether to invest in one bond or another; generally, the one
with the higher yield wins out. However, it is important to take into account the after tax basis
when taking the yield ratio of a corporate bond and a tax-exempt municipal bond. A corporate
bond yields less than its stated interest rate because of taxation, whereas a tax-exempt municipal
bond does not. Thus, a municipal bond paying a lower interest rate will often net the bondholder
more than a corporate bond with a slightly higher interest rate, depending upon one's tax bracket.
27
A valuation measure that compares the enterprise value of a company to the company's sales.
EV/sales gives investors an idea of how much it costs to buy the company's sales. This measure
is an expansion of the price-to-sales valuation, which uses market capitalization instead of
enterprise value. EV/sales is seen as more accurate because market capitalization does not take
into account as well as enterprise value the amount of debt a company has, which needs to be
paid back at some point
28
EBITDA is essentially Net Income with interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization added
back to it. EBITDA can be used to analyze and compare profitability between companies and
industries because it eliminates the effects of financing and accounting d ecisions. However, this
is a non-GAAP measure that allows a greater amount of discretion as to what is (and is
not) included in the calculation. This also means that companies often change the items included
in their EBITDA calculation from one reporting period to the next. When a company is valued
using EBITDA - it is known as a EBITDA Valuation.
(j) EV/EBIT(x)
29
(k) EV/CE(x)
30
Also known as "liquidity ratio", "cash asset ratio" and "cash ratio".
31
1- Sales amount increase by 19% but Cost of sales increase by 22% (bcoz salaries paid
to software development employees increase by 26% ). This has resulted in a less
proportionate increase by in Gross profit (15%).
2- Sales increase by 19% but debtors increase by significant 35%.
It is due to the increase in Debtors collection period from 64 to 72 days i.e. debtors are
given more credit period. This has resulted in decrease of Debtors turnover ratio.
3- As it is a Service oriented company , it does not have any stock kept with it. So there is
no amount blocked in stock.So the investment required in working capital is less.
4- Gross Profit Amount increase by approx 15% and Operating Net profit amount increase
by approx 18 %.This means that Operating activities of Infosys is more efficient as
compared to Software development activities(production activities).
5- But if we see ,ultimately its Operating net profit ratio has still decrease from 32.13 to
31.72.This is due to a significant increase in Cost of sales by 22%.
6- Therefore we analyze that its Cost of sales has so much material affect that it is reducing
both GP Ratio & operating profit ratio.
7- As we will see further there is a healthy % increase in Net profit amount by approx 18%
(as compared to Gross Profit Amount by approx 15% ). This
improvement in its performance is majorly due to improvement in Extra-ordinary items
like interest received on deposits from banks (increase by 257 % ).
8- Funds available with the company has increases by approx 21% . In 2007-08 company
has not issued any new equity or debt .Therefore the company has raised its funds only
through its Reserves & Surplus which is approx 21%.
32
9- Now the company has employed these funds in following ways: 1) Acquired
new fixed assets . This has resulted in more depreciation charged to profits in P & L
a/c.This has ultimately decreases the Operating profit ratio.
2) used to finance the working capital requirements.
3) has also made some new Investments in the current year(increases by
15 )
10- There is a decreases in Fixed assets turnover ratio. At first look it may appears that the
company has utilized its Fixed assets less efficiently.However it has acquired New Fixed
assets worth Rs 1050 crores in the year 2007-08 which may help the company in Future
growth.
11- Company has no Debt and Preference capital which means that there is no Capital
Gearing ratio,no Debt-Equity ratio and no Interest Coverage ratio.
ADVANTAGES :
➢ Not dependent on External Borrowers
DISADVANTAGE:
➢ Gives lower E.P.S. for Shareholders.
33
Conclusions:
1- Company needs to reduce its cost of sales i.e. Software Development related expenses, to
increase its Gross Profit ratio and Operating net ratio.
2- Company needs to have stringent credit policy, to reduce the funds required for working
capital.
3- Do efficient utilization of shareholders funds to improve its ROI & ROE to maintain its
goodwill in investors mind.
4- May go for some Debt borrowing to increase E.P.S. for shareholders.

Infosys’ goal has always been to create an open and safe workplace for every
employee to feel empowered, irrespective of gender, sexual preferences, and
other factors, and contribute to the best of their abilities. Towards this, the
Company has set up the Anti-Sexual Harassment Initiative (ASHI), which
proudly completes 21 years of enabling a positive and safe work environment
for our employees.
Our ASHI practices have set an industry benchmark as it ranked first among
300+ companies that participated in an external survey on the best anti-sexual
harassment initiatives in 2017, 2019 and 2020. Infosys has constituted an
Internal Committee (IC) in all the development centers of the Company across
India to consider and resolve all sexual harassment complaints reported by
women. The IC has been constituted as per the Sexual Harassment of Women at
Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013, and the
committee includes external members from NGOs or with relevant exp erience.
Investigations are conducted and decisions made by the IC at the respective
locations, and a senior woman employee is the presiding officer over every
case.
Half of the total members of the IC are women. The role of the IC is not
restricted to mere redressal of complaints but also encompasses prevention and
prohibition of sexual harassment. In the last one year, the IC has worked
extensively on creating awareness on relevance of sexual harassment issues in
the new normal by using brand-new and innovative measures to help employees
understand the forms of sexual harassment while working remotely. The details
of sexual harassment complaints that were filed, disposed of and pending during
the financial year are provided in the Business Responsibility Report of this
Annual report.
