[00:00:00]So, petrol and diesel prices have gone up. Government increased 3 rupees prices in diesel and petrol in all the states. The prices have gone up. Mind it that this is not the real problem of fuel increase, but there are a lot of things which are impacting directly with the fuel increase. Your freight cost will go up. Your transport cost will go up. Your vendor prices will increase because their their cost will also go up. Your delivery cost will also go up because fuel surcharge will be start charging by the customers, by the vendors. Your working capital also will go up because start spending more in terms of money and you will start paying interest more. So, think about it. This fuel is not only hitting one side. It will hit multiple times. So, how you should tackle this? The best way to tackle this is to have your numbers start generating on timely basis. Why I am saying so? Because the number will keep telling you what is your cost increase. And when you know what is your cost increase, you can back to back increase in your pricing. If this is not timely known, MI is doesn't come to you timely, your net profit will start eroding. When your net profit start eroding, the business survival becomes difficult.
