Types of Ratio Analysis :-
1. Liquidity Ratios
2. Profitability Ratios
3. Activity Rations or Turnover Ratios
4. Solvency Ratios
Liquidity Ratios
This type of ratio helps in measuring the ability of a company to take care of its short-term debt obligations.
A higher liquidity ratio represents that the company is highly rich in cash.
I. Current Ratio
The current ratio is the ratio between the current assets and current liabilities of a company. The
current ratio is used to indicate the liquidity of an organization in being able to meet its debt obligations
in the upcoming twelve months. A higher current ratio will indicate that the organization is highly
capable of repaying its short-term debt obligations.
Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
In 2021 Current Ratio = 210719 / 201787 => 1.04:1 (values are in ₹ in crore)
In 2020 Current Ratio = 166597 / 310183 => 0.53:1
In 2019 Current Ratio = 152864 / 202021 => 0.76:1
The Current Ratio of the company is
Current Ratio 1.04:1 that is less than the ideal ratio
1.04 2:1. From the graph we find that the
0.53 last two years the current ratio first
2021
0.76 rises and then decline. So we can say
2020 that the company short-term financial
2019
position is not good.

off its current liabilities on an immediate basis.
Quick Ratio = Liquid Asset / Current Liabilities
Liquid Assets = Current Assets – (Stock or inventories + prepaid expenses)
In 2021 Quick Ratio = 173282 ÷ 201787 => 0.86:1 (values are in ₹ in crore)
In 2020 Quick Ratio = 127795 ÷ 310183 => 0.39:1
In 2019 Quick Ratio = 108720 ÷ 202021 => 0.54:1
Quick Ratio
The Quick Ratio of the company is 0.86:1
which is less than 1:1. From the graph we find
0.39 0.54
0.86 that the last two years the quick ratio first rises
then decline. So we can say that the company
is not in the position to pay its current liabilities

PROFITABILITY RATIOS
LIQUIDITY RATIOS
VALUATION RATIOS
Days inventory is high compare to the competitors – making the company raise more capital
toinvest in the channel. This can impact the long term growth of Reliance Industries
Financial planning is not done properly and efficiently. The current asset ratio and liquid asset ratios
suggest that the company can use the cash more efficiently than what it is doing at present.
Limited success outside core business – Even though Reliance Industries is one of the leading
organizations in its industry it has faced challenges in moving to other product segments with
itspresent culture.
Need more investment in new technologies. Given the scale of expansion and different geographies
the company is planning to expand into, Reliance Industries needs to put more money in technology
to integrate the processes across the board. Right now the investment in technologies is not at par
with the vision of the company.
Investment in Research and Development is below the fastest growing players in the industry. Even
though Reliance Industries is spending above the industry average on Research and Development,
ithas not been able to compete with the leading players in the industry in terms of innovation. It
has come across as a mature firm looking forward to bring out products based on tested features
in the market.
Organization structure is only compatible with present business model thus limiting expansion
inadjacent product segments.
The marketing of the products left a lot to be desired. Even though the product is a success in terms
of sale but its positioning and unique selling proposition is not clearly defined which can lead to the
attacks in this segment from the competitors.
After writing this report I have understood how reliance industries have come up in such a highly competitive
market like in India and also they were able to establish their name in international market also. Form this
report we can see that the company is not just focusing on one industry whereas it has many subsidiaries and
associates which helping them to be stable when the economy is down.
From the table is clear that in all the areas like market capital, sales turnover, net profit and also total asset,
reliance have a very high position with a remarkable difference in their respective values. While we analyse
the competition we can determine that the company possess a dominancy over the market. It is very difficult
for the competitors to come over the reliance position. Considering the fact that the company profit is from
the market it is important for reliance to maintain this status with more marketing strategies.
