AI summary

The Sandesh Limited filed Q3 FY26 standalone and consolidated unaudited results ended Dec 31, 2025. Auditors gave a clean limited review. Key exceptional item: Rs 241 lakh hit from new labour codes (gratuity), partly offset by Rs 14 lakh asset sale gain. Other income boosted by Rs 29 crore in investment gains. Board also appointed Giriraj Sharma as Channel Head replacing Prashant Kumar Nema.

Likely market impact

One-time labour code hit dragged headline profit. Core operations and investment income remain steady.
