Why margin tracking is critical

Revenue growth without healthy margin can create cash stress. Margin analysis helps you price better and control costs before profitability slips.

Profit margin formulas

Gross Margin % = (Revenue - COGS)/Revenue x 100; Net Margin % = Net Profit/Revenue x 100

Use gross margin for product economics and net margin for full business performance.

Use margin analysis for

  • Pricing optimization
  • Vendor renegotiation
  • Product mix decisions
  • Quarterly performance tracking

How to calculate margin

  1. Enter sales revenue

  4. Review margin percentages
  5. Benchmark against industry norms

Margin example

Scenario: Monthly revenue Rs 12,00,000, COGS Rs 7,20,000, net profit Rs 1,80,000.

Inputs

  • Revenue: Rs 12,00,000
  • COGS: Rs 7,20,000
  • Net profit: Rs 1,80,000

Calculation

  • Gross margin = (12,00,000 - 7,20,000)/12,00,000 = 40%
  • Net margin = 1,80,000/12,00,000 = 15%

Result: Business runs at 40% gross margin and 15% net margin.
