Conclusion

  • In the three previous financial years, Tata Steel has performed better than SAIL in terms of efficiency ratios and market valuation. On the other hand, SAIL has outperformed Tata Steel in terms of net profit margin in the last two years (although the net profit margins are roughly the same in 2021)�
  • Both companies have seen a decline in performance in the year 2020 owing to Covid-19. However, they still show promise as their performance has recovered in the year 2021.�
  • The operating efficiency of Tata Steel is consistently higher than that of SAIL. High operating efficiency indicates that the management is effective in controlling costs.�
  • The liquidity ratios (current ratio and quick ratio) of TATA Steel are consistently higher than that of SAIL. Higher liquidity indicates that the company has a greater amount of cash and easily convertible-to-cash assets which can be used to finance short-term debt obligations.�
  • Considering the above factors, for stability of returns, one may consider investing in TATA Steel.�
  • A person who is looking for a higher percentage gain and is willing to undertake risk may consider investing in SAIL.
