Airtel's revenue from operations rose 22.3% to ₹31,500 crore during the fourth quarter of FY2021-22, from ₹25,747 crore in the corresponding period of the previous year.
For the full year FY22, the Sunil Mittal-led telco logged a net profit of ₹4,255 crore against a loss of ₹15,084 crore in the previous fiscal (FY21).
Bharti Airtel posted a revenue of ₹116,547 crore for FY22, up from ₹100,616 crore recorded in the previous financial year. This translated into a topline growth of about 16% for full year.
Gopal Vittal, CEO, India and South Asia, Bharti Airtel, exuded optimism about the opportunities in the coming years, and said the company is "well poised" for three reasons.
