Apar Industries reported a topline de-growth of ~26% yoy during Q4 FY20 with weakness across its segments. While the Conductor segment reported 37% decline in revenues, Oil and Cables segment reported de-growth of ~22% and ~12% respectively. The Company was unable to carry inspections before dispatch during last few days of Mar’20 which also impacted deliveries and revenue booking. Operating margin on consolidated basis improved 35bps yoy (to 5.8%) largely driven by the sharp improvement in profitability in the Conductor segment.
