The major objective of corporate finance by Indian corporate are are summarized as follows; Ø The two most important objectives of management decision making in corporate finance in India are; (a) maximization of earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) and earnings per share (EPS) (85 percent) and (b) maximization of the spread between return on assets (ROA) and weighted average cost of capital (WACC), that is, economic value added (EVA) (76 percent). Ø Large firms (on the basis of sales, assets and market capitalization), high growth firms and firms with high exports significantly focus on maximizing EVA than small, low growth and low exports firms respectively. Ø There is no significant difference in the EVA as a corporate finance objective followed by the firms in public and private sectors. Ø The spread between cash flow return on investment (CFROI) and the WACC, that is, cash value added (CVA) is the third most important objective (54 percent) of corporate finance management for large firms based on market capitalization. Ø Yet another important objective is the maximization of market capitalization. The MVA (market value added) objective is more likely to be followed by public sector units than by private sector firms. Ø The overwhelming majority of corporates (70 percent) consider maximizing percent return on investment in assets as the most important. Ø Another preferred goal is desired growth rate in EPS/maximizes aggregate earnings. Ø Wealth maximization/maximization of share prices is the least preferred goal of the sample corporates.
