    Sales to Aftermarket customers declined 1%.
    EBITDA margin improved by 37 bps
―    Adverse forex movement, material price and inflationary pressure on employee cost were offset by favourable mix and various cost savings initiatives. 

“The market environment remained challenging in FY20. RBL managed to partially offset the volume drop in OE segment by enhancing the market position in the aftermarket segment.  Through the cost savings initiatives the company protected the operating margin despite the adverse movement on material and employee cost. Covid-19 is significantly impacting the performance of FY21 and the company is working on various cost savings initiatives to reduce the impact. This includes a management salary reduction of 10% to 35% from junior to senior level employees respectively.” – L. Ganesh, Chairman, Rane Group.
