EBITDA increased 14.1 percent to INR 91.9 billion, and the EBITDA margin expanded by 1.8 percent to 36.8 percent, driven by improvement in India. EBIT rose a slower 1.1 percent to INR 43.2 billion due to higher spectrum amotisation in India. Lower forex losses helped offset higher interest expenses, leading to a rise in net profit to INR 12.9 billion from INR 12.6 billion a year ago.
