What the Numbers Show
Other income accounted for approximately 38% of total income in Q1FY26, up from 11% in Q1FY25. This shift indicates a higher reliance on non-operational revenue streams during the period, as operating revenue declined by over 70%. The net profit margin expanded significantly due to this composition change, despite the sharp drop in core trading activity.
