Likely market impact

The results show steady profit growth of ~18% driven by improved operational efficiency, though revenue growth remains modest at ~4-5%. The clean audit and consistent dividend payout are positive signals for shareholders. The sharp increase in borrowings warrants monitoring for financial leverage impact.
