PREFACE A professional course in (MASTER OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION) is incomplete unless the theoretical knowledge acquired in the class room is backed up by practical exposure, as theories alone do not give perfection to any discipline. The gap between theory and practiced is bridged by the Project training, which has been an integral part of the syllabus. This present Project report is an image of what I have done and observed during my research project in “National Thermal Power Corporation Limited”. I was assigned a project “WORKING CAPITAL MANEGEMENT”. This report is the result of the work done during the training period. I have tried my level best to be as a systematic as possible and to avoid any sort of biases.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

A lot of effort has gone into this training report. My thanks are due to many people with whom I have been closely associated. I would like to thanks all those who have contributed in completing of this project. First of all, I would like to send my sincere thanks to Mr. Nitin Sonkar for her helpful hand in the completion of my project. I would like to make special note of thanks to Mr. Nitin Sonkar for providing me an opportunity for training in NTPC and enriching, enlighten me with his valuable insights, innovative ideas and nurturing guidance. I would like to thank my entire beloved family & friends for providing me monetary as well as non – monetary support, as and when required, without which this project would not have completed on time. Their trust and patience is now coming out in form of this thesis.

DECLARATION

I hereby declare that the Project report titled “ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT” is my original work and has not been published or submitted for any degree, diploma or other similar titles elsewhere. This has been undertaken for the purpose of partial fulfillment of requirement for the award of the degree of Master of Business Administration (M.B.A).

This policy lays down the broad guidelines to be followed in acquisition of equipment, materials and services for the organisation. This policy permits centralised policy making, decentralised execution and administration with a view to achieving the organisational goals in the most efficient and effective manner. NTPC awards contracts through extensive tendering and bidding processes. This report aims at providing a description of the same. The report is basically concerned with the involvement of Finance Concurrence department in this procedure. The Finance Concurrence department validates cost estimates and provides necessary approvals. Any proposal with financial implication needs approval from the Finance Concurrence department.
