Quess Corp's Board meeting on May 4, 2026 approved audited FY2026 results showing consolidated revenue of Rs 153,052 million (up 2.3% YoY) and net profit of Rs 2,222 million (vs Rs 459 million in FY2025). Deloitte issued a qualified opinion due to ongoing income tax disputes (Rs 3,880 million contingent liability) regarding Section 80JJAA deductions and goodwill depreciation claims that the company is contesting. The board declared a special interim dividend of Rs 3 per share (30%) to mark 10 years since listing, with record date May 8, 2026, and recommended a final dividend of Rs 3 per share subject to AGM approval. Mr. Anish Thurthi was appointed as Additional Director (Non-Executive, Non-Independent) effective June 1, 2026, while Mr. Chandran Ratnaswami resigned as Non-Executive Director effective May 31, 2026 citing advancing age. The company also appointed KFin Technologies Limited as its new Registrar and Transfer Agent replacing MUFG Intime India.
The qualified audit opinion highlights ongoing tax litigation risk, though the company claims strong legal grounds. The director changes appear routine (age-based resignation with replacement). Investors may react positively to the special dividend marking the IPO anniversary alongside improved profitability.
