| Item | Working | Amount (₹) |
|---|---|---|
| Current Assets: Inventories + Trade Receivables (8,50,000 − 75,000) + Current Investments + Accrued Income + Short-term Loans & Advances + Prepaid Expenses + Advance Tax | 2,37,500 + 7,75,000 + 25,000 + 5,000 + 10,000 + 12,500 + 10,000 | 10,72,500 |
| Current Liabilities: Trade Payables + Short-term Borrowings + Other Current Liabilities + Short-term Provisions | 1,75,000 + 25,000 + 50,000 + 3,00,000 | 5,50,000 |
Answer: Current Ratio = 1072500 / 550000 = 1.95 : 1.
