times while also managing risk exposure. Ultimately, the "better" strategy hinges on aligning
debt levels with corporate objectives and market conditions. TATA Steel's consistent reduction
may be favoured for risk-averse investors seeking stability, whereas JSW Steel's flexibility
could be advantageous for those willing to tolerate higher risk for potentially higher returns
during growth phases.
Interest Coverage Ratio TATA Steel Interest Coverage Ratio JSW Steel
Interest Coverage Ratio Industry Average
The Interest Coverage Ratios of TATA Steel and JSW Steel, alongside the industry average,
display dynamic trends over the fiscal years, reflecting their ability to meet interest obligations.
TATA Steel's ratio fluctuated considerably, with peaks and troughs indicating varying levels
of financial stability. In contrast, JSW Steel's ratios portrayed a more erratic pattern,
8|Page
showcasing periods of both robust and strained interest coverages. Notably, TATA Steel
demonstrated a remarkable surge in FY 2022, indicating a significant improvement in its ability
to cover interest expenses.
Assessing which company exhibits the best performance depends on the investor's risk appetite
and financial objectives. TATA Steel's consistency in maintaining moderate to high interest
coverage ratios, particularly evidenced by the substantial leap in FY 2022, may appeal to risk-
averse investors seeking stability and reliability in dividend payments. Conversely, JSW Steel's
dynamic approach, though potentially offering higher returns during periods of growth, poses
greater risk due to fluctuating interest coverage ratios, which may deter conservative investors.
Ultimately, TATA Steel's ability to consistently cover interest payments and its notable
improvement in FY 2022 position it as the preferable choice for investors prioritizing stability
and reliability in their investment portfolios

Dividend Payout Ratio Industry Average

The Dividend Payout Ratios for TATA Steel and JSW Steel, juxtaposed with the industry
average, showcase distinct dividend distribution strategies and financial health over the fiscal
years. TATA Steel notably presented a sporadic pattern, with intermittent years of high payouts
followed by years of no dividends, indicating an irregular commitment to returning profits to
shareholders. Conversely, JSW Steel displayed a more consistent approach, with relatively
stable dividend payouts over the period. Comparatively, TATA Steel's dividend distribution
strategy appears less reliable and predictable due to the absence of dividends in several years
and significant fluctuations in payout percentages when dividends were declared. In contrast,
JSW Steel's steady dividend payouts suggest a more disciplined and shareholder-friendly
approach, providing investors with a consistent stream of income.

Current Ratio TATA Steel Current Ratio JSW Steel Current Ratio Industry Average
The Current Ratio, which measures a company’s ability to cover short-term liabilities with
short-term assets, provides insights into the liquidity and operational efficiency of TATA Steel,
JSW Steel, and the industry average over the fiscal years. TATA Steel’s Current Ratio
fluctuated between 0.37 and 0.97. Notably, it peaked at 0.97 in FY 2020, suggesting a strong
liquidity position that year. However, the ratio generally hovered below the industry average,
indicating occasional liquidity challenges. The downward trend towards 0.37 in FY 2024 raises
concerns about its declining short-term financial stability.
In contrast, JSW Steel exhibited a more stable Current Ratio, generally aligning closer to or
above the industry average. With a low of 0.43 in FY 2016 and a high of 0.81 in FY 2020, JSW
Steel’s liquidity position appears more consistent and reliable. The stability around the industry
average in most years reflects a more balanced approach to managing short-term liabilities.
Comparing both companies, JSW Steel emerges as the more favourable choice regarding
liquidity. Its more consistent Current Ratio, often near or above the industry average, suggests
better short-term financial health and operational efficiency. Investors and stakeholders might
prefer JSW Steel for its steadier liquidity position, which enhances its ability to meet short-
term obligations reliably.

Inventory Turnover Ratio TATA Steel Inventory Turnover Ratio JSW Steel
Inventory Turnover Ratio Industry Average
The Inventory Turnover Ratio, reflecting how effectively a company manages its inventory,
provides key insights into operational efficiency. Comparing TATA Steel, JSW Steel, and the
industry average from FY 2015 to FY 2024 reveals distinct patterns.
TATA Steel's Inventory Turnover Ratio consistently hovers around 5, with minor dips to 4 in
FY 2018 and FY 2023. This steady performance indicates stable and reliable inventory
management, closely aligning with the industry average. However, the lack of significant
improvement suggests a static approach to inventory efficiency. JSW Steel, on the other hand,
shows greater variability with ratios ranging from 4 to 6. Peaks of 6 in FY 2018 and FY 2019
highlight periods of superior efficiency, surpassing both TATA Steel and the industry average.
12 | P a g e
Despite a dip to 4 in FY 2022, JSW Steel's higher peaks demonstrate its potential for more
effective inventory management during certain years.
Overall, JSW Steel stands out for its higher efficiency during peak years, indicating better
inventory turnover management at times. However, TATA Steel's consistent performance
offers reliability and stability. Thus, JSW Steel might be preferred for its efficiency peaks,
while TATA Steel remains a strong choice for consistent operational performance.
Net Profit Margin TATA Steel Net Profit Margin JSW Steel Net Profit Margin Industry Average
The Net Profit Margin, which measures a company's profitability as a percentage of its revenue,
provides a clear picture of financial health and efficiency. Analyzing TATA Steel, JSW Steel,
and the industry average from FY 2015 to FY 2024 reveals distinct trends and performance
levels. TATA Steel experienced notable volatility in its Net Profit Margin, with negative
13 | P a g e
margins in FY 2015, FY 2017, and FY 2024. However, it achieved significant peaks of 14%
in FY 2018 and 17% in FY 2022, surpassing the industry average. This indicates periods of
strong profitability despite occasional losses, showcasing TATA Steel's capability to capitalize
on favorable market conditions effectively. In contrast, JSW Steel displayed more consistent
profitability, maintaining positive margins throughout the majority of the period, except for a
minor dip to -1% in FY 2016.
JSW Steel's margins ranged from a low of -1% to a high of 14%, with notable stability around
the industry average. This consistency, coupled with significant peaks, reflects a steady and
reliable performance. Comparing the two, JSW Steel emerges as the better performer in terms
of consistent profitability, maintaining positive margins more reliably than TATA Steel. While
TATA Steel demonstrates potential for higher peaks, its occasional negative margins indicate
greater volatility. Investors seeking stable and predictable returns may prefer JSW Steel,
whereas those willing to accept higher risk for potentially higher rewards might consider TATA
Steel. Overall, JSW Steel's consistent performance and fewer negative years make it the
preferable choice for sustained profitability.

Return on Equity (ROE) Industry Average
The Return on Equity (ROE) reveals how effectively companies use shareholders' equity to
generate profits. Comparing TATA Steel and JSW Steel against the industry average from FY
2015 to FY 2024 highlights significant differences.
TATA Steel showed substantial volatility, with negative ROE in FY 2015, FY 2016, FY 2017,
and FY 2024. However, it achieved impressive highs in FY 2018 (29.10%) and FY 2022
(36.50%), outperforming the industry average. This indicates TATA Steel’s potential for strong
profitability during favorable conditions despite periods of underperformance. JSW Steel,
conversely, displayed more consistent and positive ROE, with only one negative year in FY
2016. It maintained strong returns, peaking at 31.10% in FY 2022, and often exceeded the
industry average, reflecting stable and effective equity utilization.
Between the two, JSW Steel is the more reliable performer, with fewer negative years and a
generally stable upward trend. TATA Steel’s higher peaks suggest potential for significant
profitability but come with greater volatility and risk. For investors seeking steady returns, JSW
Steel’s consistent performance is preferable. However, those willing to accept higher risk for
potentially higher rewards might consider TATA Steel. Overall, JSW Steel’s stability and
consistent ROE make it the better choice for sustained profitability.

The provided data spans from June 2021 to March 2024 and reflects the
distribution of shareholding among various categories (Promoters, FIIs, DIIs,
Government, and Public) along with the number of shareholders. Let's analyze
the protection of small shareholders' interests based on this data:
1. Promoters' Shareholding
Promoters' shareholding has gradually decreased from 34.41% in June 2021 to 33.19% in
March 2024. This steady decline, although small, might suggest a slight dilution of control by
promoters, potentially giving more voice to smaller shareholders.
FIIs' shareholding has fluctuated, initially increasing from 21.94% in June 2021 to 22.87% in
March 2022, then decreasing to 19.61% by March 2024. The decrease in FII holding might
reduce foreign influence over company decisions, which could align more closely with the
interests of domestic small shareholders.
DIIs' shareholding has generally increased from 19.28% in June 2021 to 23.51% in March
2024. This rise suggests a stronger influence of domestic institutions, which could be more in
tune with local market conditions and small shareholders' interests. DIIs often have a fiduciary
duty to their clients, who may include small shareholders, aligning their interests.
4. Government Shareholding
Government shareholding remains negligible and stable at around 0.10% to 0.16%. This
minimal stake indicates limited direct government influence over company decisions.
17 | P a g e
5. Public Shareholding
Public shareholding has seen fluctuations, peaking at 26.51% in December 2021 and then
reducing to 23.52% by March 2024. Despite the variations, the public's significant stake
indicates that small shareholders still have a considerable portion of ownership, giving them a
substantial collective voice.
6. Number of Shareholders
The number of shareholders has increased dramatically from 10,22,482 in June 2021 to
47,17,442 in March 2024. This significant rise suggests a growing interest among small
shareholders, which could enhance the protection of their interests due to their larger presence
and potential collective influence.
The slight reduction in promoter shareholding could reduce the concentration of power,
allowing for more balanced decision-making that considers the interests of small
shareholders.
2. Institutional Influence:
Although public shareholding has decreased slightly in recent periods, the significant
increase in the number of shareholders indicates a broader base of small shareholders,
which might lead to enhanced advocacy for their interests.
18 | P a g e
4. Collective Voice:
Also looking at the promoters share in the company , we observe that the data provided shows
the shareholding percentages of various entities related to Tata Group in a company over
several quarters from June 2021 to March 2024. These entities include Tata Sons Private
Limited, Tata Motors Limited, Tata Investment Corporation Limited, Tata Chemicals Ltd,
Ewart Investments Limited, Rujuvalika Investments Limited, Tata Industries Limited, and Tata
Motors Finance Limited.
The major stakeholder with a consistent shareholding around 32.93% initially, which
slightly decreased to 31.76% by March 2024.
Minor stakeholders with relatively small percentages, such as Tata Motors Limited
(around 0.46%), Tata Investment Corporation Limited (0.34%), Tata Chemicals Ltd
(0.25%), etc.
The shareholding percentages of the major promoter, Tata Sons Private Limited, have
slightly decreased over time. Other entities show relatively stable or slightly declining
shares.
The overall slight decrease in promoter shareholding could imply a marginal dilution
of control, potentially opening more opportunities for small shareholders to influence
19 | P a g e
company decisions. However, the promoter group still holds a significant majority,
ensuring control over key decisions.
Voting Power:
Small shareholders' collective influence might see a marginal increase due to the slight
reduction in promoters' shareholding. However, their overall impact remains limited
given the substantial control retained by Tata Sons and related entities.
Market Perception:
Investment Confidence:
In conclusion, while there are slight changes in promoter shareholding, the dominant position
of Tata Sons Private Limited and associated entities ensures continued significant control over
the company. Small shareholders may experience a marginal increase in their relative
influence, but the overall control remains firmly with the promoters.
Conclusion
The data indicates a trend towards a more dispersed and potentially balanced shareholding
structure. The reduction in promoter shareholding, along with the increase in DII stake and the
number of shareholders, suggests that small shareholders' interests might be better protected.
This is because a broader and more diverse shareholder base can hold the company accountable
and ensure that their interests are considered in corporate decisions. However, the actual
protection of small shareholders' interests would also depend on the effectiveness of corporate
governance practices and the ability of shareholders to organize and advocate for their rights.

shares into fewer hands. This could indicate that smaller shareholders are selling their
shares, potentially reducing their overall influence.
Overall Analysis
The overall trends indicate a shift towards more concentrated ownership, with promoters and
FIIs increasing their stakes while public shareholding significantly decreases. This shift could
lead to a reduction in the influence of small shareholders over corporate governance and
strategic decisions. Small shareholders might face challenges in protecting their interests as the
balance of power tilts towards larger, institutional investors and promoters.
By understanding these trends and taking proactive steps, the interests of small shareholders
can be better safeguarded despite the evolving shareholding dynamics.
