Explanation:
1. Absolute Change: The difference between the values for 2020-21 and 2019-20.
Example: Revenue Change = ₹ 75,00,000 - ₹ 60,00,000 = ₹ 15,00,000.
2. Percentage Change: The absolute change divided by the 2019-20 value, expressed as a percentage.
Example: Revenue % Change = `(₹ 15,00,000)/(₹ 60,00,000) xx 100 = 25%`
3. The statement helps analyze the performance over two periods and identifies growth or decline trends in key financial metrics.
