It can be applied in any industry whether manufacturing or service. This paper examines the good and poor performance of select private banking companies in India with select financial ratios. Data employed in this study are all secondary in nature. Seven ratios are taken for comparison and ten private banking companies are chosen for the study. The study has been conducted for a period of five years from to The research design is based on the descriptive design technique. In this research paper the authors make use of quartile Deviation technique and seven ratios which are Net Profit Ratio, Return on Total Assets, Return on Shareholders fund, Return on Capital Employed, Asset Turnover Ratio, Current Ratio, and Operating Expenses Ratio. Based on these seven ratios and quartile Deviation technique the authors suggested that the investors make use of their investments in Karur Vysya Bank td and City union Bank because the performance of Karur Vysya Bank td and City Union Bank td are better than other select private banking companies in this study. Key words: Interfirm comparison, Ratio Analysis, Banking, Financial performance, Quartile Deviation I INTRODUCTION The banking sector is one of the most important instrument of the national development, occupies a unique place in a nation s economy. Economic development of the economy is reflected through the soundness of the banking system (Gaur et al. 2012). The study of Kumar and Gulati (2008) exhibited that the overall technical inefficiency of Indian commercial banks was due to both poor input utilization and failure to operate at most 138

2 productive scale size. The enhanced profitability and efficiency has become vital for survival and growth of the banks in the era of globalization and significantly affected by asset quality, capital adequacy and liquidity of the banks (Manoj 2010). The Indian banking sector has undergone structural changes during the post liberalization era with the implementation of prudential norms for income recognisition provisioning and asset classification (Siraj and Pillani, 2011). iquidity management is one of the most important functions of a bank. If funds tapped are not properly utilized, the institution will suffer loss (Sangmi and Nazir, 2010). The empirical results of the research (Raza et al., 2011) explained that a company, which has better efficiency, it does not mean that always it will show the better effectiveness. Alam et al. (2011) study concludes that ranking of banks differ as the financial ratio changes. Biresh K Sahoo and Anandadeep Mandal (2011) examined the Performance of Banks in India in Post Transition Period and concluded that the positive trend of the reform process is visible through the increase in technical efficiency over the years of the post transition period. Ashok Khurana, Kanika Goyal (2011) analyzed the Performance of Public Sector Banks and concluded that there is a need for increased absorption of enhanced technological capability by several banks to further argument yield of the banking sector. According to Kosmidou (2008), capital adequacy can be measured by the equity to total assets ratio. igher the capital assets ratio lowers the leverage. Regarding the operating expenses, the total cost of a bank can be separated into operating cost and other expenses (including taxes, depreciation etc.). In his study, only operating expenses can be viewed as the outcome of bank management. Since improved management of the operating expenses will increase efficiency and therefore raise profits of banks, the ratio of these expenses to total assets is expected to be negatively related to profitability. Uppal (2009) examined the profitability which is an important criterion to evaluate the overall efficiency of a bank group. The paper examines the comparative trends in profitability behaviors of five major bank groups in the post liberalization and globalization era. The paper offers suggestions on the basis of empirical results to increase the profitability and measures should be taken to increase the level spread and curtail the burden. Bakar and Tahir (2009) in their paper used multiple linear regression technique and simulated neural network techniques for predicting bank performance. ROA was used as dependent variable of bank performance and seven variables including liquidity, credit risk, cost to income ratio, size and concentration ratio, were used as independent variables. Commercial bank holds a large share of economic activities of a country. The function of the commercial banks has been enhanced in Nepal to sustain the increasing need of the service sector and the economy in general (Economic Survey, 2008). In this study the authors aim to find out the good and poor performance of select private banking companies in India. II RESEARC METODOOGY The main aim of the study is to analyze the good and poor performance of select private banking companies in India with select financial ratios. The study is based on a random sample of 10 Private Banking Companies. The study has been conducted for a period of five years from to The research design is based on the descriptive design technique. The data collected are all secondary in nature. The Companies chosen as sample which are akshmi Vilas Bank td, Indusind Bank td, South Indian Bank td, ICICI Bank td, Kotak Mahindra Bank td, Yes Bank td, DFC Bank td, City Union Bank td, Axis Bank td, and Karur Vysya Bank td 139

3 For the purpose of interfirm Comparison the authors has considered these Seven Ratios. 1. Net profit Ratio: (Net Profit / Sales) X Return on Total Assets: Net Profit / Total Assets 3. Return on Shareholders Fund: (Net Profit / Shareholders fund) X Return on Capital Employed: (Net Profit / Capital Employed) X Asset Turnover Ratio: Sales / Total Asset 6. Current Ratio: Current Asset / Current iabilities 7. Operating Expenses Ratio: (Operating Expenses /Sales) X100 Net profit Ratio: This ratio is an important ratio to judge the profitability of a concern. It establishes a relationship between net profit and sales and indicates management s efficiency. Generally this ratio is expressed in percentage. A firm with a high net margin ratio would be in advantageous position to survive in the fact of falling prices, rising costs or declining demand for the product. Return on Total Assets: ROA for public companies can vary substantially and will be highly dependent on the industry. This is why when using ROA as a comparative measure, it is best to compare it against a company's previous ROA numbers or the ROA of a similar company. This ratio indicates how much net income is generated per rupee of assets. The higher the Return on Asset indicates more profitable to the bank. Return on Shareholders Fund: Return on Shareholders Fund is the most important indicator of a bank s profitability and growth potential. It is the rate of return to shareholders or the percentage return on each rupee of equity invested in the bank. Return on Capital Employed: ROCE is a measure of the returns that a business is achieving from the capital employed, usually expressed in percentage terms. Capital employed can be calculated as the difference between total assets and current liabilities. A higher value of return on capital employed is favorable indicating that the company generates more earning per rupee of capital employed. Asset Turnover Ratio: Asset turnover ratio help to measure the effectiveness with which the company/management uses its assets to generate sales or revenue. These ratios help to measure the productivity of a company's assets. A high ratio is desirable as compared to a low ratio since the former is indicative of better operating performance. It also symbolizes greater shareholder s wealth. Current Ratio: The current ratio measures a company's ability to pay short-term debts and other current liabilities (financial obligations lasting less than one year) by comparing current assets to current liabilities. The ratio illustrates a company's ability to remain solvent. A current ratio of one means that book value of current assets is exactly the same as book value of current liabilities. In general, investors look for a company with a current ratio of 2:1, meaning current assets twice as large as current liabilities. A current ratio less than one indicate the company might have problems meeting short-term financial obligations. If the ratio is too high, the company may not be efficiently using its current assets or short term financing facilities. 140

4 Operating Expenses Ratio: It measures the income generated per rupee cost. The lower the operating cost to Sales ratio, the better the performance of the bank Statistical Analysis Using the financial ratios, the study incorporated Quartile deviation as a yard stick to divide the companies according to its performance. Quartile deviation is a measure of dispersion based on the upper Quartile and the lower Quartile. et the upper Quartile and lower Quartile be and respectively. The difference between the upper and lower Quartile can be divided by 4 to obtain D. Finally using D we get measures such as, (+D), (+2D), (+3D) and. The study call (+D), (+2D), (+3D) as,,, respectively. imitations of the study The study is based on the information available in the financial statements. The study could not cover all aspect of the working of the companies. For e.g.: The quality of the products, organization structure. In additions smaller sample and seven ratios have been employed in this study.

8 IV CONCUSION Inter-firm Comparison is one of the effective tools of management. It can be applied in any industry whether manufacturing or service. Interfirm Comparison is used for analyzing good and poor performance of companies in an industry. In this research the authors have taken ten private banking companies in India to analyze the good and poor performance with the aid of financial tools and statistical tools. The authors make use of seven ratios which are Net Profit Ratio, Return on Total Assets, Return on Shareholders fund, Return on Capital Employed, Asset Turnover Ratio, Current Ratio, and Operating Expenses Ratio. Based on these seven ratios and quartile Deviation technique the authors suggested that the investors make use of their investment in Karur Vysya Bank td and Citi union Bank because the performance of Karur Vysya Bank td and City Union Bank td are better than other select banking companies in this study.
