what happened
Titan reported consolidated net profit of 23.93 billion rupees for the second quarter, well above the IBES estimate of 14.73 billion rupees. Sales of products reached 203.37 billion rupees, according to Reuters.
Bharti Airtel posted consolidated net profit of 88.88 billion rupees, below the IBES estimate of 96.73 billion. Revenue from operations came in at 608.78 billion rupees, slightly ahead of the 604 billion expected. The company also booked a one-time charge of 1.8 billion rupees in the quarter, and mobile average revenue per user (ARPU) was 271 rupees.
Separately, Titan said Noel N. Tata will step down as vice chairman and director. Its board also approved a proposal for non-convertible debentures of up to 25 billion rupees.
why it matters
The key point for markets is the gap between results and forecasts. Titan's profit was roughly 62% above the estimate, which typically supports the stock, while Bharti Airtel's result missed consensus despite higher revenue. Together the reports offer a read on two large Indian companies in the second quarter.
