While the Q4 results are positive, the company noted a dip on a quarter-on-quarter basis. Net profit decreased by 17% from ₹917 crore in Q3 FY26. Management attributed this minor decline primarily to lower total income, though operational costs were effectively kept under control.Looking at the full fiscal year (FY26), the growth story remains robust.
