Quarterly Performance Review

EBITDA for the quarter stood at Rs 1,314 crore, maintaining a healthy margin of 54.4%. The performance was largely driven by a sustained focus on attracting high-value customers, resulting in an ARPU of Rs 252 during the quarter.
Segment-Wise Growth
The company’s growth is underpinned by two key pillars: Mobile Services and Homes, Office and Other Services. The mobile segment reported annual revenues of Rs 90,108 million, while the homes and office segment witnessed strong momentum with a 65.3% YoY revenue growth in the fourth quarter. This expansion in the home segment was fueled by the addition of 395,000 customers year-on-year and a strategic push for Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) and Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) services.
Strategic Outlook and Shareholder Value
Bharti Hexacom continues to invest in technology and infrastructure, having deployed 245 new towers over the last year to improve network coverage and customer experience. With a solid net debt-to-EBITDAaL ratio of 0.44 times, the company is well-positioned for future investments. Recognizing the strong financial outcomes, the board has recommended a final dividend of Rs 18 per fully paid-up equity share (face value of Rs 5), subject to shareholder approval at the upcoming Annual General Meeting.
