3. Introduction to CARE India
CARE is a not-for-profit organisation working in India for 70 years, focusing on alleviating
poverty and social injustice. We do this through well planned and comprehensive projects in
health, education, livelihoods and disaster preparedness and response. Our overall goal is the
empowerment of women and girls from poor and marginalised communities leading to
improvement in their lives and livelihoods.
CARE India with its 70 years of experience in providing relief during disasters and delivering
large-scale health programmes on the ground is well-positioned to support the affected citizens
where the need is the greatest. CARE India is part of the CARE International Confederation
working in over 100 countries for a world where all people live with dignity and security.

4. Mission and Vision of CARE India
Mission
“CARE India helps alleviate poverty and social exclusion by facilitating empowerment of
women and girls from poor and marginalised communities.”
Vision
“CARE India seeks a world of hope, tolerance, and social justice, where poverty has been
overcome and people live in dignity and security.”
During FY 2019-20, CARE India directly reached out to 50.4 million people directly through 53
projects across 19 states, covering more than 90 districts. We are part of the CARE International
Confederation, working in 100 countries for a world where all people live with dignity and
security.
CARE focuses on the empowerment of women and girls because they are disproportionately
affected by poverty and discrimination; and suffer abuse and violations in the realisation of their
rights, entitlements and access and control over resources. Also, experience shows that, when
equipped with the proper resources, women have the power to help whole families and entire
communities overcome poverty, marginalisation, and social injustice.

marginalised communities.

21. Analysis of the Financial Position
In order to understand the financial position of the organization, we calculated various ratios
contributing to providing a better understanding regarding the solvency, profitability and
liquidity in their financial statements.
After analysing the financial statements such as the Receipts & Payments Account, the Balance
Sheet and the Income & Expenditure account, following are certain ratios calculated to
understand its financial position:
(all values are mentioned in Indian Rupees)
1. Debt Ratio = Average total debts/Average total assets
FY 2019: 64,324,203/765,326,137 = 0.085
FY 2020: 64,950,851/1,003,443,167 = 0.064
Hence it can be said that the organization has an abundance of assets available at its disposal to
raise debt by future borrowings. The debt ratio has reduced in the past financial year illustrating
borrowings made.
2. Contributions and Grants = Revenue from Contribution and Grants/ Total Revenue
FY 2019: 1,919,122,190/ 1,953,554,911 = 98%
FY 2020: 1,980,857,713/ 2,021,775,517 = 97%
The composition of the organization’s revenue comes majorly from its revenue from
contributions and grants made. This can help them understand their long and short-term needs to
source their funds accordingly. The percentage is approximately consistent for both the financial
years.
21

22. 3. Current Ratio = Current assets/ Current Liabilities
FY 2019: 765,326,137 / 459,792,563 = 1.66
FY 2020: 1,003,443,167 / 634,434,113 = 1.57
The current ratio illustrates that the organization is having sufficient resources to handle their
short term financial obligations. An ideal current ratio is anywhere between 1.5 to 2 showing that
their financial position is stable.
4. Program Efficiency = Program service expenses / Total expense
FY 2019: 1,689,884,608 / 1,927,334,839 = 87.76%
FY 2020: 1,736,359,652 / 1,978,753,293 = 87.75%
Hence the ratio illustrates that the organization is successfully contributing to 87% of its mission
laid out with its efficiency in the program operations.
5. Viability Ratio = Net Assets / long-term debt
FY 2019: 305,533,574 / 64,324,203 = 4.75
FY 2020: 369,009,054 / 64,950,851 = 5.68
The ratio for both the Financial Years is higher than the recommended ratio. Hence the ratio
successfully illustrates that the organization has resources available and is liquid to pay its
institutional obligations for its future transactions.
Other than the above measurements the organization has Earnings per Share offering of
₹3,087,522 in the FY 2020 and of ₹1,910,034 in the FY 2019. This significant increase shows
that the organization has improved upon its operations towards their activities and is resulting in
higher reach towards its objective laid with maximum benefit and returns to the concerned
associates.

23. Analysis of the Major Drivers of the NGO
The source of funds that the NGO backs on, the distribution of expenses made by them on
various undertaken activities and the allocation made by them on the sector their mission aims to

24. Conclusion
CARE India was started with a mission of impacting 100 million people by 2030. As stated by
them, 89% of all their expenses are directly spent on their programme services offered across
various sectors such as health, education, livelihood and disaster relief. After conducting an
analysis of their financial statement to comment on the organization’s financial position, the
results were remarkably positive. The organization is successfully conducting its mission with a
structurally planned financial network managing all its resources optimally. According to its
performance in the past two Financial Years, they have managed to increase their earnings per
share alongside maintaining both short and long term liquidity by having sufficient assets to back
their current and future borrowings.
The organization has strategized well upon its sources of finance as they usually depend upon
donations and grants for the same. The stability in their financial position is illustrated by its
program efficiency ratio as the expenses are properly streamlined into various departments
managing to reduce their cost of raising funds. The proportion of assets and liabilities is also
highly reciprocated by its future scope of expansion matching its operational activities.
