Here is a summary of the Cash Flow Statement for the years 2024 and 2023:
Cash Flow from Operating Activities
2024: Rs. -3,107.55 Lakhs | 2023: Rs. 18,960.44 Lakhs
2024: The company reported a negative cash flow from operating activities. The key reasons for this are large negative adjustments such as impairment of financial instruments (Rs. -3,856.87 Lakhs), interest income from various sources (bonds and bank deposits), and rental income. Despite these reductions, some operating income from changes in working capital, like an increase in loans (Rs. 6,378.54 Lakhs), couldn't offset the overall negative cash flow. The profit before tax of Rs. 5,260.83 Lakhs was insufficient to generate positive operating cash flow due to the mentioned adjustments and changes in working capital.
2023: In contrast, 2023 saw a significantly positive cash flow from operations, largely driven by a positive working capital impact, such as a decrease in loans (Rs. 11,677.69 Lakhs) and investments (Rs. 10,506.38 Lakhs). This helped counterbalance the impairments and other non-operating income, leading to strong operating cash flows for that year.
Cash Flow from Investing Activities
2024: Rs. 4,854.81 Lakhs | 2023: Rs. 2,991.56 Lakhs
2024: The cash inflows from investing activities were primarily driven by the sale of property, plant & equipment (Rs. 1,255.24 Lakhs), rent income (Rs. 1,186.24 Lakhs), and interest income from bonds (Rs. 1,575.14 Lakhs). The company’s investing activities in 2024 were overall positive, demonstrating effective asset management and capital generation through non-core activities such as rent and interest income.
2023: The cash flows from investing activities in 2023 were lower than in 2024, but still positive. The sale of property, plant & equipment and interest income contributed to the positive cash flow, but the scale of these activities was smaller compared to 2024.
Cash Flow from Financing Activities
2024: Rs. -3,015.98 Lakhs | 2023: Rs. -18,979.16 Lakhs
2024: The financing activities resulted in a negative cash flow, mainly due to the repayment of deposits (Rs. -138.96 Lakhs) and finance costs (Rs. -2,877.02 Lakhs). However, the negative cash flow from financing in 2024 was significantly smaller compared to 2023, which suggests reduced debt obligations or financing activities.
2023: In 2023, the company had a significantly larger outflow from financing activities, mainly driven by substantial repayments of deposits (Rs. -16,322.77 Lakhs), which drained a large portion of the company's cash reserves.
Net Change in Cash and Cash Equivalents
2024: Rs. -1,268.71 Lakhs | 2023: Rs. 2,972.83 Lakhs
2024: The company saw a decrease in its cash and cash equivalents by Rs. -1,268.71 Lakhs in 2024, primarily due to negative cash flow from operations and financing activities, despite positive cash flow from investing activities.
2023: In contrast, 2023 saw a significant increase in cash reserves due to the positive net cash flow from operating and investing activities.
Cash and Cash Equivalents at Year-End
2024: Rs. 3,447.83 Lakhs | 2023: Rs. 4,716.55 Lakhs
The company ended 2024 with a cash balance of Rs. 3,447.83 Lakhs, down from Rs. 4,716.55 Lakhs in 2023. This reflects the overall cash outflows during the year.
