Does management do what it says?
ROCE has seen a sharp decline from 43% in FY24 and 22% in FY25 to 12% in 9MFY26, moving further away from the long-term 25% target. (3 in progress across 3 tracked commitments)
“So as a management, we work on the -- on the expected ROCE return of 25%, which remains intact.”
Net Working Capital days for 9MFY26 stood at 27 days, exceeding the guided range of 15-25 days. Management attributed this to a large advance payment made to suppliers. (3 missed, 2 met across 5 tracked commitments)
“So I guess, we should be around 15 to 25 days in between as our working capital cycle going forward.”
