New Delhi: The increase in data rates in India limited the user growth of Meta (formerly Facebook) in the December 2021 quarter, the social media major said.
Telecom companies Bharti Airtel, Vodafone Idea and Reliance Jio had increased their mobile service rates by 18-25 per cent in the December quarter.
Meta’s profit declined 8 per cent to US$10.28 billion in the December 2021 quarter, from US$11.21 billion in the same period a year ago.
“Facebook user growth in the fourth quarter was impacted by some headwinds. In Asia-Pacific and the rest of the world, we believe the resurgence of Covid driven user growth over the prior period. User growth in India Also data was limited by the increase in package pricing.
“In addition to these factors, we believe competing services are negatively impacting growth, especially with younger audiences,” Meta’s chief financial officer Dave Wehner said during an earnings call.
Its monthly active users (MAUs), however, grew 4 percent on an annualized basis to 2.91 billion, while daily active users (DAUs) grew 5 percent to 1.93 billion as of December 31, 2021.
For its family of apps, which includes Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, WhatsApp, etc., the number of monthly active people increased by 9 percent to 3.59 billion and the number of daily active people increased by an average of 8 percent to 2.82 billion.
Meta’s total revenue during the quarter grew 20 per cent to US$33.67 billion, from US$28 billion in the same period of 2020.
For the year ended December 31, META’s net profit grew 35 per cent to USD 39.37 billion as compared to USD 29.15 billion in 2020.
Total revenue for the year 2021 grew by 37 per cent to USD 117.92 billion, from USD 85.96 billion in 2020.
