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 3.8% 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 2019, the company's revenue for that year, ₹1,57,669 Cr, differs from its quarters added, ₹1,65,021 Cr. From the year to Mar 2021, the company's revenue for that year, ₹1,56,294 Cr, differs from its quarters added, ₹1,51,014 Cr.

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. Belonging to the company's shareholders is left blank for the year to Mar 2018: the filing's earnings per share does not match the profit it states, and cannot be multiplied back into the owners' profit because a split, bonus or rights issue between the start of the period and the filing changed the share count the earnings per share is on. Net margin is left blank for the year to Mar 2020: the profit includes the result of a business the company has discontinued, which the revenue does not, so the two make no margin.

Revenue growth and operating profit growth are left blank for the years to Mar 2019 and Mar 2021: between the two periods the company restated its earlier figures, 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 2020 and Mar 2021: 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. 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.
