At 9:30 AM, Nazara Tech shares were down 5.6 per cent at ₹1,322.5 per share on the BSE. The stock hit an intraday low of ₹1,312 earlier today.

On its part, Nazara Tech has said that Nazara has no direct exposure to real money gaming (RMG) businesses. As per its latest reported financials (Q1FY26), the contribution to Revenues and Ebitda by RMG business is NIL.
The company's only indirect exposure to RMG is through its 46.07-per cent stake in Moonshine Technologies Private Limited (PokerBaazi).
As Nazara does not hold a majority stake or exercise control, Moonshine's revenue is not consolidated in the company's financial statements and has no impact on the company's reported Revenue or Ebitda. The contribution to PAT by Moonshine as share of profit & loss by associate is negative in Q1FY26.
