Group ICRA's consolidated total income for Q2 September 2014 stood at Rs 84.59 crore versus Rs 75.01 crore for Q2 September 2013, reflecting growth of 13%, the higher growth being attributable also to the 57% increase in other income during the period under consideration. Over the same horizon, Group ICRA's profit after tax (PAT) (after minority interest) showed a decline of 82% to Rs 2.84 crore from Rs 15.57 crore.
