Financial statements provide a summarized view of the financial position and operations of a firm. These can be useful indicators or measures to appraise the financial health of an organization and its profitability, financial stability (long term and short term), financial management and overall efficiency of the business. Interest of various related groups such as managers, shareholders, creditors, and tax authorities is affected by the financial performance of a firm. Thus, the analysis of financial performance is of great importance to these parties. This study provides a summary of analysis of financial performance for five financial years of IIL, extending from 1999-2000 to 2003-2004 for its various investors and stakeholders to take their investment decisions.
