Motilal Oswal Report

Vodafone Idea Ltd.'s adjusted Ebitda (excluding one-offs on pre Indian Accounting Standard 116) stood at Rs 12.8 billion versus Rs 17.1 billion QoQ.

This was attributed to the sharp subscriber churn due to the Covid-19 led lockdown and fall in average revenue per users.

With Ebitda (pre-Ind AS 116) of Rs 38.5 billion in H2 FY22E, it will be challenging to invest in growing Vodafone Idea's network and service upcoming repayments of:

  1. Rs 64.7 billion non convertible debentures in FY22,

  2. Rs 82 billion deferred spectrum payment, and

  3. adjusted gross revenue installment.

A capital raise or government relief package remains critical to provide immediate liquidity support to service the ballooning net debt of Rs 1,907 billion (including AGR liabilities).
