ABOUT
CAPITAL
Capital structure is a mix of a company's long-term debt, specific short-term debt, common equity and preferred equity. The capital structure is how a firm finances its overall operations and growth by using different sources of funds. Capital

structure is very important to survive the business in long run. After simple watching the balance sheet of company, you see two sides of balance sheet. One side is liability side and other side is asset side. Liability side is the mixture of finance of company which company has collected from internal and external sources and it has been used or will be used for development of company. In finance, capital structure refers to the way a corporation finances its assets through some combination of equity, debt, or hybrid securities. A firm's capital structure is then the composition or 'structure' of its liabilities. For example, a firm that sells $20 billion in equity and $80 billion in debt is said to be 20% equityfinanced and 80% debt-financed. The firm's ratio of debt to total financing, 80% in this example is referred to as the firm's leverage. In reality, capital structure may be highly complex and include dozens of sources.
Equity share capital: Equity share capital is also referred to as ordinary Indian context it is defined by section 85 (2) of the companies act

Company also adjusts different sources expected amount according to business environment. Suppose in future, if government of India cuts off his relation with China, from where our company is getting fund, it will definitely tough for us to get more money from China. But proper planning of capital structure of future sources will be helpful for us to enlarge our area for getting money. In finance, it is called maneuverability. It means to create mobility of sources of fund by including maximum alternatives in planned capital structure.

Company is issuing only equity share. Not preference share and loan which was given in table-1 and table-2.Companies which use borrowed money to expand are called Leveraged companies. Conventional wisdom states that if risks are low (i.e.: There is not much likelihood of a drought), you should go ahead and borrow money. This would be true especially if the growth return on capital employed (or your profit divided by money invested) is higher than the interest rate prevailing The IT industry ought to be a place where leveraging should work then after all, while bank rates are hardly 12-14%, an industry that grows at 35% should go for loans to grab as much profits as it can to expand. But Infosys has said for a very long time that they do not plan to expand with debt, and they only grow internally rather than taking loans. In fact, they have no debt at all, which seems that they
1
don't reward their shareholders as much as they could. But here is where I believe that the IT industry is essentially different from manufacturing or agriculture. For my farm which gives me paltry returns, I needed to invest a sizeable amount of money. Typically, a manufacturing plant would invest hundreds of crores, and after a couple of years, profits would be made. But in an IT firm, the investment required is minimal. They really do not need to take loans, because this can be funded out of profits which do not require new shareholders or payment of interest. Here of course, the disadvantage will be lower dividends paid to the shareholders, but this is really the cheapest option, because the shareholders would only get the bank deposit rate from their dividend income, while the company would be growing much faster.
OBSERVATION
I observe that they should paid more dividend to shareholder so that their
wealth will maximize and more number of shareholder attract towards the Infosys to invest their capital.
I also observe that to reduce their overall risk they maintain huge cash balance for safety purposes in near future.
SUGGESTION
If company needs more money to establishing new project for that the
company may go for debt or issue preference shares because it is getting better return of their investment and they can return money proper time. I would like to suggest that in the present cut throat competition and
increasing and ever growing needs of corporate expansion and growth equity source of financing isnt sufficient one so apart from equity source they should issue other sources for raising fund.
CONCLUSION
Infosys is a very good software company. It is issuing only equity share. It is continuously getting profit every year. it gives good return to their share holders so the people are very much interested to invest in infosys.Equity share capital, reserve & surplus constantly increasing. Infosys does not take any debt. It has 0 secured loan and unsecured loan. It also does not issue any preference share. Because it does not want to give any interest to the lenders it reduces the profit.
