        The variation in cash flows as compared to FY 2021 is due to the following:

      • Operating Activities

        In FY 2022, cash flow from operating activities is negative as compared to positive cashflow from operating activities in FY 2021. The cash flows have decreased in FY 2022 primarily due to increase in stock in trade and trade debts which is partially offset by increase in trade and other payables.

      • Investing Activities

        In FY 2022, there is net cash outflow from investing activities primarily due to additions in property, plant and equipment.

      • Financing Activities

        In FY 2022, cash flow from financing activities is positive primarily due to short term loans taken during the year to meet the working capital requirements.

      Analysis

      The variation in ratios as compared to FY 2021 is because of the following:

      • Gross profit and EBITDA ratios have increased as compared to last year due to improvement in gross margins on account of higher sales volume
        and favourable price regime.

      Analysis

      • Interest cover has increased due to decline in finance cost by 53.9% and increase in earning before interest and taxes by 181.0%.

      • Financial leverage has increased during the year mainly on account of greater percentage increase in short term borrowings on account of working capital needs than increase in shareholder's equity.

      • Weighted average cost of debt has decreased due to decline in borrowing rates due to robust negotiation with the banks and effective borrowing mix.

      • Both ratios of cash flow coverage and cash flow from operations to sales are negative due to negative cashflow from operations during the year. The cash flow from operations is negative in FY 2022 primarily due to increase in stock in trade and trade debts which is partially offset by increase in trade and other payables.

      • Current ratio has reduced slightly due to greater percentage increase in current liabilities than current assets. Current assets have increased mainly due to increase in stock in trade and trade debts and current liabilities have increased mainly due to increase in trade and other payables and short term borrowings.

      • Quick ratio has also reduced slightly due to greater percentage increase in current liabililties than increase in quick assets.

      • Decrease in cash flows to the firm is primarily due to negative working capital on account of increase in stock in trade and trade debts.

      • Increase in cash flow to equity holders is primarily due to increase in borrowing levels by 178%.

      Analysis

      The variation in ratios as compared to FY 2021 is because of the following:

      • Inventory turnover has decreased on account of increase in average inventory by 209% due to increase in international oil prices.

      • Debtors turnover has improved due to more proportionate increase in sales as compared to trade debts. During the year, gross revenue increased by 89.4% whereas average debtors increased by 56.0%.

      • Creditors turnover has decreased primarily due to increase in trade payables on account of increase in international oil prices.

      • Total asset turnover has improved due to more proportionate increase in sales than average total assets. Increase in sales is due to both positive volume and price variance.

      • Operating cycle has decreased primarily due to increase in creditor days on account of increase in trade payables and decrease in debtor days.

      • Production per employee has increased mainly due to increase in the production of lube manufacturing plant of the company.
