However, the company’s other expenses continued to be a burden on the results as it surged massively by around 70%YoY, from Rs 355 million to Rs. 604 million.

On the other hand, the other income rose by 14% YoY to Rs 694 million which kept the losses in check. The finance cost increased by 11.19% YoY, from Rs 1.52 billion to Rs 1.68 billion due to a substantial increase in interest rate.
