Introduction:
This project titled "A Study on Financial Performance of SBI Bank" aims to
analyse the financial performance of State Bank of India (SBI) using various financial ratios
and tools. The study utilizes both primary and secondary data sources to examine the
financial position, profitability, liquidity, solvency, and efficiency of SBI bank. The data for
the study has been collected from the annual reports of the bank, as well as from various
financial websites and publications. The study finds that SBI bank has maintained a stable
financial position and has consistently improved its profitability over the years. The liquidity
and solvency ratios of the bank also indicate a strong financial position. However, there is
scope for improvement in the efficiency ratios of the bank. The findings of the study can be
used by investors, analysts, and other stakeholders to make informed decisions regarding
their investment in SBI bank. Keywords: financial performance, State Bank of India,
financial ratios, profitability, liquidity, solvency, efficiency, annual reports, investors,
stakeholders.
The financial performance of State Bank of India (SBI) is a critical aspect of its
operations, affecting its ability to generate profits, maintain financial stability, and manage
risks. The banking industry in India is highly competitive, and SBI faces challenges such as
increasing competition from private sector banks, economic instability, and regulatory
pressure. Therefore, there is a need to conduct a comprehensive study of SBI's financial
6
performance over the past five years (2018-2022) to assess the bank's strengths, weaknesses,
opportunities, and threats. The study will involve an analysis of SBI's financial statements
and key financial ratios, such as revenue, profitability, asset quality, capital adequacy, and
liquidity.

Review of Literature
Impact of COVID-19 on the Financial Performance of SBI Bank by Rout and Gupta
(2021)This study analysed the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the financial
performance of SBI bank during the year 2020. The researchers used financial ratios
such as ROA, ROE, NIM, and Asset Quality to evaluate the bank's financial
performance. The study found that SBI bank had a decline in its financial
performance during the pandemic due to an increase in provisions for bad loans.
However, the bank's performance was better than its competitors during the
pandemic. The researchers concluded that SBI bank had managed to maintain a
satisfactory financial performance during the pandemic.
Mishra et al. (2021) conducted a study on the financial performance of SBI. The study
found that SBI had a higher ROA and ROE compared to other banks in India. The
study also found that SBI had a higher NIM and lower NPA compared to other banks.
Nayak and Singh (2020) conducted a study on the financial performance of Indian
banks during the COVID-19 pandemic, including SBI. The study found that the
pandemic had a negative impact on the financial performance of banks, including
SBI. However, SBI's financial performance was relatively better compared to other
banks due to its strong digital infrastructure.
Financial Performance of SBI Bank after Merger with Associate Banks by Singh and
Sahu (2019) this study analysed the financial performance of SBI bank after its
9
merger with five associate banks in 2017. The researchers used various financial
ratios such as ROA, ROE, NIM, and Asset Quality to evaluate the bank's financial
performance. The study found that SBI bank had a significant growth in terms of
assets, deposits, and loans after the merger. The researchers concluded that the merger
had a positive impact on the financial performance of SBI bank.
Gupta and Bhatia (2019) analysed the financial performance of Indian public sector
banks, including SBI, using a composite scorecard approach. The study found that
SBI had a higher score compared to other public sector banks, indicating better
financial performance.
Shabbir et al. (2018) conducted a study on the impact of corporate governance on the
financial performance of banks in India, including SBI. The study found that good
corporate governance practices had a positive impact on the financial performance of
banks, including SBI.
Padhan and Naik (2018) conducted a study on the financial performance of public
sector banks in India, including SBI.
The study found that SBI had a higher ROA and ROE compared to other public sector
banks. The study also found that SBI had a higher NIM and lower NPA compared to
other public sector banks.

Analysis and Interpretation of Data
7.1 LIQUIDITY RATIO:
These ratios represent whether the company has enough liquidity to meet its short
term obligations or not. Higher the liquidity ratios will increase more cash-rich the company.
It can be converted into two ratios,
• Current Ratio
• Quick Ratio

2023 2022 2021 2020 2019
INTERPRETATION
In the above table, Current Ratio from financial year 2019-2021 is on an increased trend. But
in 2022-2023 the current ratio is reduced drastically. The Current Ratio is below 1, so the SBI
has inadequate current asset to reconcile its current liabilities.
PROFITABILITY RATIO
Profitability ratios are financial ratios that measure a company's ability to generate
profits in relation to its revenue, assets, and/or equity. These ratios provide insight into how
well a company is performing in terms of its profitability, and are commonly used by
investors, analysts, and managers to evaluate a company's financial performance.
• Gross profit ratio
• Net profit ratio
• Operating ratio
• Return on Investment (ROI)

2023 2022 2021 2020 2019
INTERPRETATION
In the above table, Gross Profit Ratio for the financial year 2018-2020 is on increased trend.
But in 2021 the Gross Profit Ratio is decreased drastically. The subsequent year (2022) has
increased.so the Gross Profit Ratio for SBI shows the positive trend, when the cost of
production is constant on sales.
TURNOVER RATIO
Turnover ratio is a financial metric that measures the efficiency of a company in
managing its assets. It is calculated by dividing the value of a specific category of assets by
13
the average value of that category of assets during a specific period. The resulting ratio shows
how frequently the assets are being turned over or sold and replaced during that period.
• Inventory turnover ratio
• Debtors turnover ratio
• Fixed Asset turnover ratio

In the above table, Inventory Turnover Ratio for the financial years 2019-2021 was having a
fluctuated trend over the period. However in 2022-2023, there was a raise in the ratio
compared to previous year. Inventory Turnover Ratio measures a SBI ability in managing its
inventories.
15
Findings and Suggestions
➢ SBI's Current Ratio and Quick Ratio are below 1, indicating inadequate current assets and
a risk of not being able to pay short-term liabilities.
➢ Gross Profit Ratio and Net Profit Ratio show a positive trend except for a drastic decrease
in Gross Profit Ratio in 2021.
➢ Operating Profit Ratio shows an increasing trend, except for a decrease in 2021.
➢ Return on Investment Ratio shows a drastic increase in 2021, but decreased in 2022 due to
poor performance and equity management.
➢ Proprietary Ratio indicates SBI's dependence on debt financing and potential loss of
interest from creditors.
➢ Total Debt Equity Ratio and Financial Leverage Ratio decreased from 2019-2022.
➢ Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio increased in 2018-2019 and 2021, but decreased in 2020 and
2022.
16
Suggestions
➢ Increase current assets to improve the Current Ratio and Quick Ratio to avoid the risk of
not being able to pay short-term liabilities.
➢ Improve cost management to increase the Gross Profit Ratio and maintain a positive trend
in the Net Profit Ratio.
➢ Reduce reliance on debt financing to avoid potential loss of interest from creditors, as
indicated by the Proprietary Ratio.
➢ Maintain a healthy balance between debt and equity financing, as shown by the decreasing
Total Debt Equity Ratio and Financial Leverage Ratio.
➢ Maintain efficient collection practices and attract quality customers to sustain the
increasing trend in Debtor's Turnover Ratio.
➢ Review investments in fixed assets to ensure that they are generating sales effectively, as
shown by the fluctuating trend in Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio.

Conclusion
In conclusion, the financial performance of the State Bank of India (SBI) has been a topic of
interest among researchers, policymakers, and industry experts. The review of literature
conducted between 2018 and 2022 has highlighted the various factors that have contributed
to SBI's improved financial performance, such as the adoption of digital banking, merger, and
effective management strategies. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has also had a negative
impact on SBI's financial performance, which the bank has managed well through various
measures. Overall, future research could focus on analysing the impact of emerging
technologies such as block chain and artificial intelligence on the financial performance of
SBI. The findings from this review of literature provide valuable insights for policymakers
and industry experts to improve the financial performance of SBI and other commercial
banks in India.
