₹134 Cr PAT in Q1 FY27; Revenue grows 10.4% YoY to ₹6,583 Cr amid exceptional losses
Tata Communications reported a 10.4% YoY increase in consolidated revenue to ₹6,582.82 Cr for Q1 FY27, primarily driven by the Data Services segment. However, Profit After Tax (PAT) attributable to the parent fell 29.3% YoY to ₹134.23 Cr, significantly impacted by a net exceptional loss of ₹106.36 Cr. These one-off charges included staff cost optimization (₹44.78 Cr), fire damage at a third-party data center (₹30.10 Cr), and contractual provisions (₹50.00 Cr). While the core Data segment grew, higher network and transmission expenses (+15.2% YoY) pressured the bottom line.

- Recurring exceptional charges for staff optimization
- Margin pressure from rising network and transmission expenses
Key Highlights

Net profit attributable to equity holders declined 29.3% YoY to ₹134.23 Cr from ₹189.98 Cr.
Exceptional items resulted in a net loss of ₹106.36 Cr, including a ₹30.10 Cr provision for fire-related damages.
Data Services revenue grew to ₹5,703.58 Cr, now accounting for 86.6% of total operational income.
Contingent liabilities remain significant at ₹7,513.71 Cr related to historical AGR-related license fee demands.
