Last 3 Years & Q1-FY 2021 Financial Overview:
Based on the above financial information, the total assets, revenue, and PAT all 3 parameters show a good amount of growth along with the indication of improvement in the profit margin in Q1 of FY 2021.
Observations in other financial information YoY [Mar 20 vs. Mar 19]:
1. A decrease in PBT margin is due to an increase in depreciation on PPE resulted due to investment in fixed assets and one exceptional item relates to Service Tax demand reported with Rs. 15 Cr. in Statement of P&L. This was recorded by the entity for 50% of the demand raised by the department using the benefit under “Sabka Vishwas Legacy Dispute Resolution Scheme, 2019”.
2. Increase in Days Sales Outstanding from 62 to 77 is due to growth in India and the Middle East, where customers have stretched payment cycles. [Based on the disclosure as per the annual report].
3. The increase in current assets overweighed the increase in current liabilities so the current ratio tends to increase.
Positives:
1. Leading cloud communications service provider offering CPaaS with global and local customization expertise.
2. The positive and increasing trend of financial performance from last 3 years with positive performance in Q1 of FY 2021 in spite of the COVID situation considering the nature of the business.
3.The lower debt involved financials and decrease in debt as compared to the prior year, so no pressure of finance cost [in financials there is an impact of Ind AS 116 which has resulted in the finance cost].
