(Reuters) – Indian telecom operator Bharti Airtel reported a higher quarterly profit on Thursday, as last year’s tariff hikes continued to uplift its per-user revenue and helped by a one-time gain.
The company reported a consolidated net profit of 147.81 billion rupees ($1.69 billion) for the third quarter, from 24.42 billion rupees a year ago.
The company recorded a one-time gain of 75.46 billion rupees during the reporting quarter.
