Tech Mahindra's fourth quarter net profit soars 76% to Rs 1,167 crore
Tech Mahindra saw tariff-related uncertainties delaying a large hi-tech sector deal renewal in the fourth quarter when the Mahindra Group company reported nearly flat sequential revenue growth, in line with India's IT industry performance. However, net profit jumped 76.5% from a year earlier to Rs 1,167 crore, benefitting from margin expansion and a reduction in tax. Sequentially, net profit grew 18.7%. Revenue at Rs 13,384 crore grew 4% from a year earlier, but only 0.7% from the third quarter, hurt by weakness in North America, the largest region in terms of revenue, and the key segments of communications, manufacturing, and hi-tech & media. In dollar terms, revenue was flat year-on-year at $1.55 million. Sequentially, it fell 1.2%. The company was expected to post a net profit of Rs 1,031.1 crore on revenue of Rs 13,438.2 crore, according to ET Intelligence Group. 'This performance was impacted primarily by a delay in the customer renewal decision for a US hi-tech client, along with the seasonal trends in the retail vertical, the BPS (business process solution) segment,' chief executive Mohit Joshi said. Discretionary spending that was seen in January has stalled and is being relooked at because of the tariff-related volatility, specifically in the industrial manufacturing and auto space, he said.
