Gulf Oil Lubricants India (GOLI) posted revenue/EBITDA/PAT of Rs3.60bn/554mn/359mn in Q4FY20, down 18%/25%/24% yoy and 15%/29%/36% qoq (13%/30%/32% below our estimates), due to a significant Covid-19-led hit on volumes in the second half of March. Total reported lube sales volumes plummeted 16% yoy/11% qoq to 25mn ltr (12% miss), with core volumes down 14% yoy. Usual heavy March-end selling activities were disrupted by Covid-19.
