About Q1 FY21 sector data
Which sectors performed best in Q1 FY21?
On median profit growth, Fast Moving Consumer Goods led and Information Technology lagged among sectors with at least ten companies reporting. The table below ranks every sector on median revenue and profit growth alongside its beat/miss split.
Why the median and not the average?
A single company swinging from a small loss to a small profit can produce a four-figure growth percentage, and an average would let that one row define the whole sector. The median describes the typical company in the group, which is the question a sector view is actually asked.
Why do sectors with few companies get excluded from the strongest and weakest?
A sector where three companies reported has a median that can move on one result. The strongest and weakest labels only consider sectors with ten or more reporters, so the ranking reflects a trend rather than an accident.
Why do some Q1 FY21 growth figures show "n/a" instead of a percentage?
Growth is left blank whenever the comparison period was not profitable. A percentage change measured from a loss is arithmetic without meaning — a swing from a ₹10 crore loss to a ₹10 crore profit is not "200% growth", and publishing it as such would flatter the company. The reported figures for both periods are still shown, so the change is there to read directly.
Does the beat/miss verdict cover every company?
No analyst consensus was available for Q1 FY21, so no beat/miss verdict is shown. Revenue and profit growth are taken from reported results and cover every company in the table.
What counts as an in-line result rather than a beat or a miss?
Reported earnings per share within ±2% of the consensus estimate. The band is set there because a tighter one classifies rounding as news, and a wider one swallows surprises that genuinely moved a stock.
Are the figures consolidated or standalone?
Consolidated where a company reports on that basis, standalone otherwise, with all money in ₹ crore. Figures are as filed by the company with the exchanges (NSE/BSE); they are not restated or adjusted.
Figures are as reported by companies in their quarterly filings to the exchanges (NSE/BSE), in ₹ crore. Consolidated results are shown where a company reports them, otherwise standalone. Year-on-year and quarter-on-quarter growth is omitted where the comparison period was loss-making, since a percentage change from a negative base is not meaningful. Analyst consensus is an estimate, not a forecast of outcome.
