On consolidated basis, the group’s net profit stood at Rs 841.82 crore for the year ended March 31, 2011 as compared to Rs 745.49 crore for the year ended March 31, 2010, up by 12.92%. Its total income has increased by 82.26% at Rs 4427.54 crore for the year under review as compared to Rs 2429.26 crore a period ago.
