This rise in profitability is expected due to lower inventory losses despite a decline in volumes during 1HFY20 when compared to the same period of last fiscal year.

The finance cost is expected to surge on the back of markup on delayed payment, as per Darson's research.

According to AKD research, APL’s market share has suffered by 10.5% in HFY20 against 11.4% in 1HFY19 as an influx of grey products, especially HSD, has started hurting while the aggressive strategy of players is also playing a part.
