15. Final Project: Blinkit Maharashtra Monthly Report

15.4 Stage 3 – PivotTable Analysis

Steps in Excel

  1. On a Calc sheet build pivots from tblOrders (Module 13.3): pvtCity (City × Sum of Amount, Status = Delivered), pvtTrend (Order Date by day), pvtCategory (Category × City), pvtOnTime (City × On Time, Show Values As % of Row Total), pvtKPI.
  2. City vs target: next to pvtCity, =GETPIVOTDATA("Sum of Amount",$A$3,"City","Pune")/XLOOKUP("Pune",tblTargets[City],tblTargets[Monthly Target]).
  3. Top categories per city: in pvtCategory use Row Labels filter › Value Filters › Top 10… › Top 3 Items by Sum of Amount.
  4. Write each answer to the five questions in one sentence on the Notes sheet.

Worked example – answer format (your numbers will differ).

Question Answer (example)
Q2 City Pune gave the highest sales (about 37%); Solapur is at 92% of target.
Q3 Trend Daily sales rose sharply from 14-09-2026 with the Ganeshotsav start, with modaks and pooja items leading.
Q5 Delivery All cities except Nagpur delivered ≥ 90% of orders within 12 minutes.

Ravindra Bagale's Tip

Many students build pivots but don't write the "answer" from them – they just show numbers. A manager doesn't want numbers; they want a conclusion: "Solapur is at 92% of target". Write one sentence for each question, and use that same sentence as the chart title on the dashboard.

Practice task

Build the five pivots, calculate achievement vs target for all six cities, and write one-sentence answers to all five brief questions on the Notes sheet.
