Interest cover is left blank for the years to Mar 2022, Mar 2023, Mar 2024, Mar 2025 and Mar 2026: operating profit after depreciation is a loss, and a loss covers no interest bill. Debt to equity is left blank for the years to Mar 2025 and Mar 2026: net worth is below zero, so there is no shareholders' money to set the borrowings against. No balance sheet is on record for the year to Mar 2018, so its lines and the ratios worked from it are blank there.
