Resultsof Three Months Ended December 31, 2023

Our Service cost increased to INR 273.6 million (USD 3.3 million) in the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to Service cost of INR 200.0 million (USD 2.4 million) in the three months ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to higher package sales in the three months ended December 31, 2023 on account of recovery in consumer travel markets and an accrual of cost against the IT services comprising software development and related services.

CertainNon-IFRS Measures
As certain parts of our Revenue are recognized on a “net” basis and other parts of our Revenue are recognized on a “gross” basis, we evaluate our financial performance based on Adjusted Margin, which is a non-IFRS measure.
We believe that Adjusted Margin provides investors with useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our business and more accurately reflects the value addition of the travel services that we provide to our customers. The presentation of this non-IFRS information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our unaudited condensed consolidated financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Our Adjusted Margin may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to potential differences in the method of calculation.
In addition to referring to Adjusted Margin, we also refer to Adjusted EBITDA Profit, Adjusted Results from Operations, Adjusted Profit/(Loss) for the Period and Adjusted Basic and Adjusted Diluted Earnings/(Loss) Per Share which are also non-IFRS measures. For our internal management reporting, budgeting and decision-making purposes, including comparing our operating results to that of our competitors, these non-IFRS financial measures exclude employee share-based compensation cost, impairment of loan to joint venture and listing and related expenses. Our non-IFRS financial measures reflect adjustments based on the following:
| ● | Employee<br> share-based compensation cost - The compensation cost to be recorded is dependent on varying available valuation methodologies and<br> subjective assumptions that companies can use while valuing these expenses especially when adopting IFRS 2 “Share-based Payment”. Thus, the management believes that providing non-IFRS financial measures that exclude such expenses allows investors<br> to make additional comparisons between our operating results and those of other companies. |
|---|---|
| ● | Impairment<br> of loan to joint venture - The impairment cost to be recorded is dependent on varying available valuation methodologies and subjective<br> assumptions that companies can use while valuing the fair value of the assets on the balance sheet date. Thus, the management believes<br> that providing non-IFRS financial measures that exclude such expenses allows investors to make additional comparisons between our<br> operating results and those of other companies. |
| --- | --- |
| ● | Listing<br> and related expenses - These primarily reflect the non-recurring expenses incurred on the Indian IPO process. |
We evaluate the performance of our business after excluding the impact of the above measures and believe it is useful to understand the effects of these items on our results from operations, Profit/(Loss) for the period and Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share. The presentation of these non-IFRS measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our unaudited condensed consolidated financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. These non-IFRS measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to potential differences in the method of calculation.
A limitation of using Adjusted EBITDA Profit, Adjusted Results from Operations, Adjusted Profit/(Loss) for the period and Adjusted Basic and Adjusted Diluted Earnings/(Loss) Per Share as against using measures in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB are that these non-IFRS financial measures exclude share-based compensation cost, listing and related expenses, impairment of loan to joint venture and depreciation and amortization in case of Adjusted EBITDA profit. Management compensates for this limitation by providing specific information on the IFRS amounts excluded from Adjusted EBITDA profit, Adjusted Results from Operations, Adjusted Profit/(Loss) for the Period and Adjusted Basic and Adjusted Diluted Earnings/(Loss) Per Share.
