Tech Mahindra Reports Strong Profit Growth in Q1 FY27
Tech Mahindra posted a 28% year-on-year (YoY) increase in consolidated net profit for the first quarter of FY27, reporting ₹1,465 crore compared with ₹1,141 crore in the corresponding quarter last year. Revenue from operations also recorded healthy growth, rising 18% YoY to ₹15,712 crore. Despite the strong operational performance, the company’s earnings fell short of market expectations, leading to a muted investor response.

CEO Mohit Joshi highlighted that the consistent deal pipeline demonstrates growing client confidence and the company’s expanding capabilities in AI, cloud transformation, and digital engineering.
Margins Continue to Improve
The company reported an EBIT margin of 14.4%, improving 60 basis points sequentially and 330 basis points year-on-year. Management credited disciplined cost management, operational efficiencies, and better execution across business segments for the improved profitability.
