Reasons for Ntc revenue and profit changes in Q1 FY 2083/84
Nepal Telecom has cited the following reasons for changes in its revenue and net profit during the first quarter of FY 2083/84:
- Natural disasters: The devastating floods and landslides in the Bhotekoshi area of Rasuwa district on Bhadra 10 affected telecom services and business activities. Nepal Telecom provided 17 days of free data and voice services to affected customers. Service disruptions and free services affected revenue generation during the period. The Budhigandaki floods on Ashoj 25 also had a negative impact on telecom services.
- GSM and FTTH revenue: The company reported an increase in operating revenue from GSM and FTTH (NT Fiber) services. GSM revenue increased by Rs. 10.16 lakh, while FTTH revenue grew by Rs. 4.40 crore. However, the increasing use of larger mobile data packages at lower prices also affected revenue growth.
- Employee expenses: The increase in the salary scale during the current fiscal year raised employee-related expenses. However, lower depreciation expenses and impairment reversal helped reduce the company’s net expenses by Rs. 48 crore, 12 lakh (5.90%).
- Service expansion: As the country’s state-backed telecom operator, Nepal Telecom continues to prioritize network expansion and service quality improvements, including in remote and geographically challenging locations where operating costs are high and returns are relatively low.
Despite the challenges caused by natural disasters and rising employee expenses, Nepal Telecom managed to increase its net profit by 37.35% in the first quarter of FY 2083/84. The company’s ability to maintain revenue growth while expanding telecom services in remote areas remains an important factor in its financial performance.
