Materials, employee costs and other expenses are shown for the years they add up to operating expenses; for the years to Mar 2017 and Mar 2018 they do not, so they are left blank. Net margin is left blank for the years to Mar 2023, Mar 2024, Mar 2025 and Mar 2026: the profit includes the result of a business the company has discontinued, which the revenue does not, so the two make no margin.

Return on equity, asset turnover and assets per rupee of net worth are left blank for the years to Mar 2023, Mar 2024, Mar 2025 and Mar 2026: 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.
