Net profits for the Q4FY23 quarter were up 19.11% yoy at Rs19,299 crore. This was largely driven by 21.8% increase in the EBITDA. In terms of top line growth, the digital business grew at 15.4% while the retail services grew at 19.4% yoy. The O2C business saw lower top line revenues on account of sharp fall in crude oil prices and lower price realizations on downstream products. 

The quarter saw a sharp improvement in the EBITDA of the digital business while sourcing benefits also helped improve the EBITDA of the retail business. On the O2C business, despite lower top line, the profit growth was positive due to higher transport fuel cracks and optimized feedstock costs. This offset lower petchem margins in the O2C business. One area to watch is the 64% spike in debt servicing costs due to a combination of higher debt and higher interest costs amidst rising rates.
