Statement-I is correct as it directly mentions India Post's Q1 revenue for FY 2026–27 was ₹4,009 crore. However, Statement-II does not explain why the revenue was high. It only mentions that the Department's sustained efforts towards modernization and customer-centric service delivery contributed to its continued growth, but it does not establish a causal link between these efforts and the high Q1 revenue.
