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 27.1% 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 2018, the company's revenue for that year, ₹6,167 Cr, differs from its quarters added, ₹5,937 Cr. From the year to Mar 2025, the company's revenue for that year, ₹14,967 Cr, differs from its quarters added, ₹19,358 Cr.

Capital spending is part of cash from investing, and dividends paid, shares bought back and shares issued are part of cash from financing. Each is shown as an amount on a line of its own, and the section's other items are in its total only. No cash flow statement is on record for the years to Mar 2017, Mar 2018, Mar 2019 and Mar 2020. Dividends paid is left blank for the years to Mar 2022, Mar 2023, Mar 2024, Mar 2025 and Mar 2026: the cash-flow statement states no dividends paid, while the company's own dividend record shows one paid in the period, so the line is not given.

Revenue growth, operating profit growth, net profit growth and earnings per share growth are left blank for the years to Mar 2018 and Mar 2025: 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.
