AI summary

MSTC posted H1 FY26 standalone total income of 19,596 lakhs, up 9.3% YoY, with net profit of 9,347 lakhs, up 12%. EPS rose to 13.28 vs 11.86. Board approved closure of Marketing segment procurement business (5.5% of turnover) by Q2 FY27 to focus on E-Commerce. Auditor flagged emphasis of matter on 14,362 lakh Standard Chartered Bank dispute (sub-judice). Operating cash flow turned sharply negative at minus 17,367 lakhs.

Likely market impact

Core E-Commerce growing, weaker Marketing segment being shut. Watch SCB legal case outcome and negative operating cash flow.
