The data required for the study were collected from Annual Reports of the Companies.
The annual reports of the sample companies have been downloaded from the database
www.insight.asiancerc.com. Data analysis was done by use of one way ANOVA.
The results obtained reveal that there was an inverse relationship between capital
structure and financial performance of listed firms in BSE. The findings indicate that the
higher the debt ratio, the less the return on equity which therefore supports the need to
increase more capital injection rather than borrowing, as the benefits of debt financing are
less than its cost of funding.

Impact of capital structure on banking performance in India, relationship between equity
and banking performance, relationship between debt and banking performance.
