Peak revenue ₹9,663 Cr, year to Mar 2024; lowest ₹4,981 Cr, year to Mar 2017

Operating and net margin, per cent

From Apr 2019 leases sit on the balance sheet: rent is charged as depreciation and interest instead, so operating profit and total assets step up with nothing about the business having changed. Borrowings here leave lease liabilities out. Lease payments were 0.2% of operating profit in the first full year.
