Sequential Profit Decline of 49% Raises Eyebrows

While the YoY growth in profit reflects robust financial health, Info Edge’s net profit declined 49% quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) from ₹677.9 crore reported in Q4 FY25. This drop is largely attributed to lower exceptional gains and other income fluctuations compared to the previous quarter, where one-time gains and investments had contributed significantly to the bottom line.

Operating Revenue Up 17% YoY, Steady QoQ Growth

Info Edge continued to exhibit strong business fundamentals with a steady increase in operating revenue. In Q1 FY26, the company reported operating revenue of ₹790.9 crore, representing a 17% YoY increase from ₹676.7 crore in Q1 FY25.

On a sequential basis, the revenue also witnessed a 6% increase from ₹749.6 crore in Q4 FY25, demonstrating consistent growth across its business verticals—including recruitment, real estate, education, and matrimonial services.

Total Income Crosses ₹1,000 Cr Mark

Info Edge’s total income stood at ₹1,004.1 crore in Q1 FY26, including ₹213.2 crore from other income sources such as investments, interest, and dividends. The company’s diversified revenue streams have played a pivotal role in stabilizing overall income amid changing market dynamics.

Key Growth Drivers

  1. Recruitment Segment (Naukri.com):
    The recruitment business continues to be the largest revenue generator, driven by strong hiring activities in IT, BFSI, and startup sectors.
  2. Real Estate (99acres):
    Steady demand in Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities contributed to revenue growth in the property listings platform.
  3. Education and Matrimony (Shiksha & Jeevansathi):
    Digital transformation in education and rising interest in online matrimony platforms are adding to Info Edge’s top-line growth.
  4. Investment Income:
    Info Edge also benefits from its strategic investments in tech startups such as Zomato and PolicyBazaar, which periodically influence its other income performance.

Challenges Ahead

Despite the strong YoY growth, the significant sequential decline in profit may concern investors. It reflects the impact of reduced non-operating gains and highlights the need for sustainable operational growth in the long term.

Additionally, increased competition in the online classifieds and recruitment space from both local and global players poses a challenge to Info Edge’s market dominance.

Outlook: Strong Fundamentals with Room to Strengthen

Info Edge continues to maintain a solid financial foundation, with consistent revenue growth and strong brand positioning across its platforms. With India’s digital economy expanding and online recruitment gaining further traction, the company is well-positioned for long-term growth.

Moving forward, a balanced focus on operational efficiency and strategic investments will be key to sustaining profitability and enhancing shareholder value.
