On the reaction day the stock moved 7.6 pts less than Nifty Microcap 250 and 7.7 pts less than its Internet & Catalogue Retail peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Just Dial reported FY26 net revenue of ₹12,138.6M, up 6.3% YoY, but net profit fell 14.9% to ₹4,970.2M from ₹5,842M, hurt by lower other income (fair value gains) and a ₹210.8M exceptional charge for new labour codes' impact on gratuity. EPS dropped to ₹58.44 from ₹68.70. Auditor Deloitte Haskins & Sells gave an unmodified opinion. Separately, CFO Abhishek Bansal resigned effective April 15, 2026, citing personal career reasons; he served 8+ years as CFO.
Weaker other income and a one-time labour code charge dragged profits despite steady revenue growth. CFO transition may add short-term uncertainty.
