KFin Technologies saw its consolidated net profit decrease by 4.6% year-on-year to ₹81.15 crore for the fourth quarter of FY26, even as revenue surged by 22.9% to ₹347.33 crore.

Despite these challenges, the company's EBITDA improved by 5.1% to ₹128.51 crore, although the EBITDA margin fell to 37%, down 620 basis points from the previous year. For the full fiscal year, KFin Technologies reported a net profit of ₹343.71 crore, up 3.3%, and revenue of ₹1,301.49 crore, reflecting a 19.3% increase.
