< but how to convert to USD? >

You type "586.2 crore indian rupees in U.S dollars" into Google search.

That's about $71M USD. (1 Crore = 10,000,000 units). Currently, 1 USD = 83 INR

So, 586 crores INR = 5860000000 INR = $71,000,000 USD

EDIT: It seems like some people are saying the correct number is not 586 crores but 5k crores which is 10 times more.

That sounds really low

Not sure. It says Profits, not Revenue. So may be possible ?

Because it is incorrect. The correct figure is 5,593.8 Cr, which is equal to 676.15 million USD. Note: 676.15 = 5593.8*1e7/82.73/1e6.

It's 5,593.8 Cr, which is equal to 676.15 million USD. Note: 676.15 = 5593.8*1e7/82.73/1e6.

586.2 Cr is correct for net profit ("The net profit was higher by about 23.9 per cent at Rs 586.2") which is what the original commentator said. 5,593.8 Cr is revenue.

Uh oh, it seems like I made a mistake. You may be right! But I am not able to edit my comments now.
