In the absence of any support from financial facilities, the first obvious outcome of operating cash flow shortage would be to face operational problems such as increase in days creditors as to meet liquidity crunch the organisation will try try to stretch creditors in the short run. If the situation continues then next stage would be curtailment of some operations and running the balance operation on full optimum capacity. In case of new project, the first response would be delay in project.

The remedy in short term is to limit the operation or try to stretch the creditors and meanwhile bridge the gap with any running finance facility or with bill discounting from banks. In the long run have to review all operation to make it viable and closing non profitable operations.
