12. PESTELANALYSIS
The PESTEL terms include the political, economic, socio-culture, environmental and
legal aspects from by which the company influenced. These factors are important
because these factors are bound with each and every aspect of the society internally as
well as externally.
POLITICAL
• Government is launching the various schemes for the development of the
infrastructure of roads and transport.
• Steel industries in India spends a huge amount on the freight and transportation
with the launch of various schemes in infrastructure company could be able to save
some amount which company spends on the freight and transportation.
• The various liberalization schemes launched by the government is responsible for
the tremendous growth in the various sectors but the particularly in this sector.
• Apart from this the mining policies of the government and other policies helped
the industry in reduction of import duty and export duty and other things that
were responsible for the high growth of the steel industry globally.
13. ECONOMICAL
The economic aspect of pestel analysis includes market trends, inflation rate, demand
and supply of the particular commodity and globalization. If these factors are in
unstable in nature the company may face the tremendous loss.
• In 2008, United States economy faces the subprime crisis which affected each and
every strong economy in a very negative way. Many foreign investments and
equities got dampened because of the reduction in the confidence in the liquidity
and the returns on the investment.
• Steel industry may got affected because of the cyclical economic condition. Many
industries like automobiles, appliances and construction depends on the steel
industry and if industries faces any kind of downturn in the economy, the steel
companies may face losses.
• Steel production process are completely dependent on the energy market which can
affect the Tata steel in the economic manner.
• With the change in the economic conditions a company should change its policy
accordingly and to sustain in the depression period a detail research and survey
should be done by the particular country.
14. SOCIO-CULTURAL
Socio-culture aspect means the achievements or the willingness of the

TECHNOLOGICAL FACTOR
Technological aspect in the pestel analysis means that how company is able to
use the present technologies in the productions process it can also state as how
company is using the technology for the maximum utilization of the resources.
• Technological aspect should be always in the nature of changing as per the
new circumstances.
• Tata steel and the sail(steel authority of India ) started the E-PORTAL
system in middle of year 2000. This technology is also known as the
METAL JUNCTION which is helpful for not only to Tata steel but also to
entire industry.
• With the help of this technology e market is the biggest market for the
purchasing and selling of the steel in the world.
15. ENVIRONMENTAL FACTOR
Environmental aspect means how the company is protecting the environment from the
pollution and other factors which are harmful for the society and nature .it includes the
pollution problem, waste disposal methods of the company, noise control and other
factors which can be included under the environmental aspect.
• In the steel industry there is a major problem of the emersion of the co2 gas during
the production process which is extremely harmful for the nature and human being
itself. Reduction of CO2 is necessary.
LEGAL FACTOR
Every company is bound with some internal and external rules and regulations which is
helpful for the smooth flow of the company. It also includes the international laws and
regulations that company is bound to follow it also include the safety and health
regulations of the employees of the company.

27. APATM RATIO
Adjusted Profit After Tax Margin ratio is calculated by
dividing net income after taxes by net sales. A company's
after-tax profit margin is important because it tells
investors the percentage of money a company actually
earns per rupee of sales.
28. TATA STEEL
RATIO 2013 2009
APATM (%) 11.96 19.38
We see a decline in adjusted profit margin ratio in the company
from 2009 to 2013. Which means that company was not able to
generate revenue from its sales in the same proportion as 2009.
The reason could be increase in company’s expenditure over the
years.

33. INTEREST COVERAGE RATIO
Interest Coverage Ratio is used to determine how easily a
company can pay interest on outstanding debt. The interest
coverage ratio is calculated by dividing a company's earnings
before interest and taxes (EBIT) of one period by the company's
interest expenses of the same period:
The lower the ratio, the more the company is burdened by
debt expense.

ratio, it still very healthy and shows that company has enough
liquidity to cover it’s interest obligations.

41. INTERPRETATION
• The current ratio of SAIL shows
improvement, it has increased by 60% over
the four year period which is a good sign as it
shows that they are increasing their current
assets.
• The current ratio of TATA Steel decreased
marginally over the period which is not good
as their current ratio is already quite low as
compared to other competitors and industry
benchmark.
43. INTERPRETATION
• The DER of SAIL increases because they have
increased the debt portion by many folds to
arrange funds for the available opportunities.
• The TATA Steel has improved their debt equity
position by decreasing the debt and at the
same time by increasing the equity capital to
make their firm less leveraged.
45. INTERPRETATION
• SAIL DTR is quite low in comparison to TATA
Steel. It is favourable to have higher DTR
because it shows that how many times
company is collecting debts from its debtors.
• On the other hand TATA Steel’s DTR is good
and also matching to industry benchmark.
