The 52-week high is Rs 2,174.50 and the 52-week low is Rs 1,740.50. At Rs 1,910, the Bharti Airtel share price is 12.1 percent below its 52-week high. The FY26 results tell a nuanced story: revenue grew strongly at 21.96 percent year on year to Rs 2,10,973 crore, but full-year net profit declined 20.45 percent to Rs 26,695 crore from Rs 33,556 crore in FY25.

Growth<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p>The 20.45 percent decline in FY26 PAT versus FY25 is the critical number investors are grappling with. FY25 PAT of Rs 33,556 crore included a large one-time exceptional item, the deferred tax credit and capital gains from restructuring, which artificially inflated the FY25 base. Stripping out the one-time items, the underlying operating profitability has improved in line with revenue growth. Q4 FY26 PBDT was Rs 26,849 crore, up 22 percent year on year, confirming that the core business is healthy.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_the_Airtel_Share_Price_Still_Has_Investor_Interest\"><\/span><strong>Why the Airtel Share Price Still Has Investor Interest<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><p>Three factors keep the Bharti Airtel share price in focus despite the PAT optics. First: Bharti Airtel has overtaken HDFC Bank to become India&#8217;s second most valuable company by market capitalisation, reflecting long-term confidence in the telecom franchise. Second: the EGM on 12 June 2026 will consider issuing shares to ICIL at Rs 1,923 per share on a preferential basis, Rs 13 above the current market price, signalling institutional conviction at higher levels. Third: the Jio IPO delay (Bloomberg, 21 May 2026) removes the near-term competitive narrative shift that might have triggered sector rotation away from Airtel.<\/p><p>Disclaimer: Investment in the share market is subject to risk.
