The aforesaid summarised financial results are based on the standalone financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS) notified under the Companies Act, 2013 ("the Act") and other relevant provisions of the Act.

During the year, the Company adopted Ind AS 116 "Leases" using modified retrospective method. The adoption of this standard did not have any material impact on the profit of year ended March 31, 2020.

Financial Performance

Revenue from Operations is marginally lower than previous year by 2.3%. The financial performance of the Company started impacting from the 4th quarter of the year. Covid -19 pandemic has severely impacted the world economy, particularly from the beginning of the year 2020, including India. The operations of the Company are also impacted, particularly during the lockdown period as both the factories and all sales and service offices were closed. Due to logistics bottlenecks, closure of customers' site and suspension of travel, there was an impact on sales and profits. Further, slowdown in domestic economy, particularly in later part of the year, has also impacted domestic sales. In terms of profitability, the performance is better than previous year due to on-going value engineering and various supply chain initiatives taken during the year. The Company is focussed to develop upgraded efficient models with cost optimisation and launched some for these models in current year which improved the margins. Efficiency in conversion cost is also achieved during the year.

The working capital of the Company improved compared to previous year as a result of which liquidity was comfortable. The Company continues to remain debt free, barring loans for vehicles.

Revenue from Operations

Revenue from both Product and Aftermarket sales has come down by 0.4% and 8.3% respectively for the reasons as stated above. The revenue in Product as well as in Aftermarket Sales segment is shown below:

Description FY-20 FY-19 Change %
Product Sales 6,283.8 6,307.7 (0.4)
% to Total Sales 77.6% 76.1%
Aftermarket Sales 1,815.2 1,980.2 (8.3)
% to Total Sales 22.4% 23.9%
Total Sales 8,099.0 8,287.9 (2.3)

Certain export consignments were struck up in the port towards end of the year due to lockdown and non-availability of vessels. Even, after market revenues were impacted as several customers could not arrange payments before the year end, mainly due to covid 19 pandemic. Due to these reasons, the Company has lost revenues of at least ₹ 500 million during the year for which goods were ready.

During the year, the exports were almost flat, but there was a dip in domestic market, mainly due to slow down in Indian economy. The percentage change in sales mix of Domestic and Exports is shown in table below:

(₹ in Million)

% to Total Sales 47.4% 46.2%
Domestic 4,257.5 4,460.0 (4.5)
% to Total Sales 52.6% 53.8%
Total Sales 8,099.0 8,287.9 (2.3)

Other Income

Other Income has increased by 35.0% over previous year. The increase is mainly due to dividend income received from the Company's wholly owned foreign subsidiary, Triveni Turbines Europe Pvt Ltd., UK, amounting to ₹ 65 Million. Further, the Company has earned higher income from investment from various mutual fund schemes and bank fixed deposits over previous year, as surplus fund from operation increased.
