Airtel Q2 net profit rises 168% to ₹3,593 cr

BHARTI AIRTEL on Monday reported a 168% rise in its consolidated net profit to ₹3,593 crore for the quarter ending September 2024, up from ₹1,341 crore in the year-ago period.

The company also improved its average revenue per user (ARPU) by 15% to ₹233 in Q2FY25, compared to ₹203 in Q2FY24. Its consolidated revenues for the quarter were ₹41,473 crore, growing by 12.0% year-on-year and 7.7% quarter-on-quarter, driven by strong momentum in India and growth in constant currency in Africa.

Airtel's mobile revenue grew 18.5% YoY, led by tariff hike by the company in July 2024. The telco's consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA) during the quarter were ₹22,021 crore, while the EBITDA margin was 53.1%.

However, the company's customer base in India decreased by 2 million in the latest quarter, ending at 407 million as of September-end.
