Revenue grew 11.3% to Rs 47,485 crore, EBITDA rose 16.6% to Rs 21,879 crore, and ARPU improved 3.5% to Rs 218.80.

The record date is 5 November 2026. Investors holding shares before the ex-date are eligible, so verify the date on NSE or BSE.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_a_profit_rise_always_push_the_stock_higher\"><\/span><strong>Does a profit rise always push the stock higher?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> No. Stocks move on results relative to expectations, valuation and outlook. Sun Pharma&#x27;s profit declined and the stock is slightly lower, while SJVN&#x27;s doubling of profit has lifted it nearly 10%. A rise already priced in can lead to a fall even on good numbers.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_should_I_use_a_stocks_to_watch_list\"><\/span><strong>How should I use a stocks to watch list?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Treat it as a research starting point and not a buy list.
