Abstract

The Automobile industry is a key driver of economic growth, contributing significantly to employment, innovation, and national GDP.Maruti Suzuki India Limited (MSIL), a leading player in the Indian automotive sector, has demonstrated consistent growth and financial resilience. This study examines the financial statements of Maruti Suzuki over the past five years (2019-2024) to evaluate its profitability, liquidity, solvency, and financial stability.The study utilizes ratio analysis, including Gross Profit Ratio, Net Profit Ratio, Operating Profit Ratio, Return on Capital Employed (ROCE), Return on Net worth (RONW), and Return on Assets (ROA), to assess financial performance. The findings reveal a fluctuating trend in profitability and efficiency, indicating external market influences, cost structures, and strategic investments. Despite an overall positive financial trajectory, challenges such as rising production costs, evolving consumer preferences, and the shift towards electric vehicles (EVs) highlight the need for strategic adaptations. The study suggests that Maruti Suzuki should focus on cost management, technological advancements, market expansion, and sustainability initiatives to maintain its market leadership. This research provides insights into the financial dynamics of the Indian automobile sector and offers recommendations for future growth and profitability.
