Is Tata Chemicals financially healthy?
Not really
Tata Chemicals carries heavy debt: it would take 31.0 years of earnings to pay it off.
The numbers behind it
Net debt / EBITDA31.0 years
Cash vs. debt₹3.8B vs. ₹80.0B
Current ratio1.1×Short-term assets for each ₹1 of bills due within a year
Interest coverage-1.9×How many times operating profit covers the interest bill
How we decide
We measure debt in years of earnings (net debt / EBITDA): under 1 is very comfortable, 1 to 3 is manageable, above 3 is heavy. A company that earns less than 3 times its interest bill also counts as weak.
