Liquidity is an important aspect of financial management. Hence, it is essential for an analyst to study the trends of liquidity. This article presents a comparative study of liquidity trends of SAIL and TISCO. It provides a basis to judge whether the liquidity policy pursued by the companies are satisfactory or some improvement is required in the sphere of financial management. The statistical methods such as index number, time series analysis, regression and chi-square test have been employed in this study to examine the liquidity position of both the companies. This article also analyzes the working capital and sales relationship based on working capital turnover ratio and statistical techniques of regression. The statistical technique of hypothesis testing has further been used to analyze the significance of differences between actual and estimated values of working capital, current assets and current liabilities of both the companies. On the whole, the liquidity policies pursued by SAIL and TISCO have been precisely and effectively presented.
