The company's consolidated revenue rose 5.4% to Rs 62,613 crore ($7.50 billion) in the June quarter. Analysts, on average, expected revenue at Rs 62,207 crore, as per LSEG data.

Ahead of the Union Budget, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, along with Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, chaired a meeting with economists. The meeting was held at Niti Aayog in New Delhi on Thursday (July 11).

The plea is being opposed by the Centre and the NTA, who claim that there is no indication of any 'mass malpractice' or a localised set of candidates benefitting from the abnormal NEET-UG 2024 results.
