SAO PAULO (Reuters) – Brazilian telecom TIM SA posted a 54.1% decrease in second quarter net profit, as inflationary pressures offset solid revenue growth, the company said on Monday.

TIM Brazil, controlled by Telecom Italia (BIT:TLIT), reported that net income fell to 313 million reais from 681 million reais the previous year.
