Margin profile and profit quality
The 17.81% operating margin shows that Rs 71.97 cr of expenses absorbed most of the Rs 87.56 cr revenue base. Interest of Rs 0.92 cr and depreciation of Rs 1.07 cr reduced operating profit before tax, while the Rs 0.06 cr other-income contribution means reported profit was not materially lifted by non-operating income. The 39.37% tax rate was a significant deduction from pre-tax profit.
