Private Sector

Though sales have not shown any growth, EBITDA margin increased by 80 Bps in spite of an increase in staff cost by 77bps. This seems to be because of lower raw material cost and constant or marginal reduction in power cost. Stress is visible from reduction in interest coverage ratio and increased tax provision

Power sector including petroleum products shows a substantial reduction in sales mainly because of reduction in price and not because of reduction in volume. All other sector shows growth in top line and except computer etc., all other sectors show increase in EBITDA margin

With the change in central government, India emerged as the ‘darling’ of investors as the new party in power promised to unlock stuck projects, put renewed focus on ease of doing business and openly welcome companies to ‘Make in India’.

Despite positive headwinds, Weak demand, constrained financial flexibility of major players, and the risk aversion of financiers continues to impact investments in the Indian economy. However better utilization of present capacity, overall growth is around 8%, if one excludes reduction in top line of petroleum sector which is quite healthy in spite of prevailing economic situation in the world
