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 6.5% 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, ₹1,079 Cr, differs from its quarters added, ₹952 Cr.

Revenue growth, operating profit growth, net profit growth and earnings per share growth are left blank for the year to Mar 2019: 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 2015, Mar 2016, Mar 2017 and Mar 2018, so its lines and the ratios worked from it are blank there.
