Formula

Profit = Revenue − Cost

Margin % = (Profit ÷ Revenue) × 100

Markup % = (Profit ÷ Cost) × 100

Your calculation

Profit: ₹1,00,000.00 − ₹70,000.00 = ₹30,000.00

Margin: (₹30,000.00 ÷ ₹1,00,000.00) × 100 = 30.00%

Markup: (₹30,000.00 ÷ ₹70,000.00) × 100 = 42.86%

Two percentages, two different questions.

Profit margin

Answers: how much of each unit of revenue remains as profit?

Markup

Answers: how much profit was added relative to the underlying cost?

For example, if revenue is ₹100,000 and cost is ₹70,000, profit is ₹30,000. The margin is 30% because profit is measured against revenue. The markup is approximately 42.86% because the same profit is measured against cost.

Profit margin calculator FAQ

What is profit margin?

Profit margin shows how much profit remains from revenue after the costs included in your calculation. It is expressed as a percentage of revenue.

What is the difference between margin and markup?

Margin measures profit as a percentage of revenue. Markup measures profit as a percentage of cost. They use the same profit amount but different denominators.

Can profit margin be negative?

Yes. If total cost is higher than revenue, profit is negative and the resulting profit margin is also negative.

Should I include every business cost?

Use costs that match the purpose of the calculation. For a gross margin calculation, use the direct cost of goods or services. For a broader profitability view, include the relevant operating costs as well.

Why should revenue and cost use the same time period?

Using the same period keeps the calculation comparable. Mixing monthly revenue with annual cost, for example, produces a misleading result.
