Operating revenue increased due to higher mobile handset and equipment sales, growth in mobile and IT Business services data revenue, offset by a decline in voice revenue.

Other income has increased by R128 million as it was reclassified from selling and administrative expenses to sundry income.

This is income in nature and it is more appropriate to report this income under the other income category instead of being offset against selling, general and administration expenditure.
