Depreciation & other non-cash items are added back to PAT because they reduced profit on paper but never moved cash. Working-capital changes adjust for accruals — receivables increasing = cash we've billed but not received yet. Click Consultant view for per-ledger WC detail and Direct ↔ Indirect reconciliation.
