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 9.0% of operating profit in the first full year.

The years either side of a change of basis do not compare. From the year to Mar 2020, the company's revenue for that year, ₹889 Cr, differs from its quarters added, ₹903 Cr. From the year to Mar 2021, the company reports a discontinued business. From the year to Mar 2023, the company's revenue for that year, ₹341 Cr, differs from its quarters added, ₹1,312 Cr.

Return on equity, asset turnover and assets per rupee of net worth are left blank for the years to Mar 2019 and Mar 2020: a tenth or more of the assets on the balance sheet it is worked from are held for sale or for a demerger, so it would mix the business being kept with the part that is leaving.

Debt to equity, receivable days, inventory days, payable days, cash conversion cycle, days, return on capital employed and working capital days are left blank for the year to Mar 2019: a tenth or more of the assets on the balance sheet it is worked from are held for sale or for a demerger, so it would mix the business being kept with the part that is leaving. Revenue growth and operating profit growth are left blank for the year to Mar 2020: between the two periods the company restated its earlier figures, so the two are on different bases and the change is not worked out. Revenue growth, operating profit growth, net profit growth and earnings per share growth are left blank for the year to Mar 2021: between the two periods the company began reporting a business as discontinued, so the two are on different bases and the change is not worked out. From the net margin, from asset turnover and from borrowing are left blank for the years to Mar 2022, Mar 2023 and Mar 2024: the profit of this year or the year before includes a business the company has discontinued while its revenue does not, so the change in return on equity is not split into margin, turnover and borrowing. Interest cover is left blank for the years to Mar 2023, Mar 2024, Mar 2025 and Mar 2026: operating profit after depreciation is a loss, and a loss covers no interest bill. Revenue growth, net profit growth and earnings per share growth are left blank for the year to Mar 2023: between the two periods the company restated its earlier figures, so the two are on different bases and the change is not worked out. No balance sheet is on record for the years to Mar 2017 and Mar 2018, so its lines and the ratios worked from it are blank there.
