* Revenue for RRVL grew by 22.8% Y-o-Y with strong growth across all consumption baskets. Grocery- 41%, Fashion & Lifestyle- 28%, Consumer Electronics– 19%.
* O2C revenue declined by 2.4% primarily on account of lower price realisation led by 5.3% Yo-Y decline in average brent crude oil prices.
* Revenue from Oil & Gas segment increased significantly mainly on account of higher volumes partly offset by lower gas price realisation from KG D6 field.
• EBITDA increased by 16.7% Y-o-Y to ? 44,678 crore ($ 5.4 billion). Key contributors include:
* 11.5% Y-o-Y increase in JPL EBITDA with higher revenue and increase in margins.
* Robust 31.1% increase in RRVL EBITDA led by record footfalls amid festive season. EBITDA margin for RRVL improved by 50bps to 8.4% reflecting operating leverage and continued focus on cost management initiatives.
* Sustained performance in the O2C segment with higher gasoline cracks and advantageous feedstock sourcing. This was partially offset by lower downstream chemical margins and planned maintenance and inspection shutdown.
* Planned maintenance and inspection shutdown of CDU, FCCU, Delayed Coking and ROGC complex impacted yields and profitability. O2C EBITDA would have been higher on Y-o-Y and comparable on Q-o-Q basis if all major units were available during the quarter.
