According to a regulatory filing, the company's consolidated net profit in the October-December quarter of FY22 was Rs 48.93 billion.

The company's total income grew to Rs 196.62 billion in the quarter under review, up from Rs 192.13 billion in the same time last year.

The board also authorised the payment of a third interim dividend of Rs 3.50 per share, bringing the total interim dividend for fiscal year 2022-23 to Rs 8.75 per share.
