Key Drivers of Performance
The company’s income statement reflects significant gains linked to the valuation of its equity stake in TRG International Limited (TRGIL). TRG’s share of net profit in TRGIL was recorded at Rs2.99 billion, largely due to the rising public share price of Ibex, one of TRGIL’s key investments, during the period.
