Here all amounts are in thousands of crores of INR
Profit (before tax) for Y1, 800 – 600 = 200
Profit (before tax) for Y2, 1100 – 850 = 250
Profit (before tax) for Y3, 1200 – 900 = 300
Profit (before tax) for Y4, 1200 – 950 = 250
Profit (before tax) for Y5, 1350 – 1050 = 300
Profit (before tax) for Y6, 1500 – 1200 = 300
Profit (before tax) for Y7, 1600 –1240 = 360
Profit (before tax) for Y8, 1850 – 1400 = 450
There are 5 distinct values.
