How much this quarter's profit grew versus the same quarter last year.
A year-on-year figure strips out the seasonal bump that every winter or every monsoon brings, so it is the honest read of whether profits are actually expanding.
Compare it with sales growth for the same quarter: profit racing ahead of sales is usually a margin story that cannot last, and a rate from a tiny or loss-making base can look spectacular while saying nothing.
| Below 0% | Shrinking versus the same quarter last year. |
|---|---|
| 0% to 10% | Growing, but modestly. |
| 10% to 25% | Solid year-on-year growth. |
| Above 25% | Very fast — check whether a tiny or loss-making base is inflating it. |
Rough conventions for an ordinary company; sectors differ. A range is not a buy or sell level.

No. YoY quarterly profit growth describes one aspect of a company, a price or a contract, and it is best read alongside other numbers and the business itself. Jivani Markets is a research and education platform; it does not give buy, sell or hold recommendations.
