Tata Communications

Tata Communications, the digital ecosystem enabler, experienced a 29.8% year-on-year decline in profit, amounting to Rs 381.7 crore for the quarter ending in June FY24. This drop was primarily attributed to a weak operating margin, lower other income, and higher finance cost. Despite the challenging profit figures, the company’s revenue from operations showed a positive trend, increasing by 10.7% YoY to reach Rs 4,771.4 crore for the quarter. On the operating front, EBITDA also experienced a decrease of 4.9%, amounting to Rs 1,024 crore compared to the same period last year. Additionally, the operating margin contracted by 350 basis points YoY during the quarter.
