- Standalone InfoEdge revenue grew 12% YoY to Rs.824 crores.
- Standalone operating profit grew 33% YoY to Rs.334 crores, achieving an operating PBT margin over 40%.

What Info Edge (India) Limited does
Info Edge (India) Limited operates internet-based classifieds and service-delivery portals across four verticals: recruitment solutions (naukri.com, naukrigulf.com and other recruitment-related portals plus ancillary services), real estate (99acres.com), matrimony (Jeevansathi.com), and education (Shiksha.com). Recruitment Solutions and 99acres are its two reportable operating segments, while Jeevansathi and Shiksha are grouped together as they individually fall below reportable-segment thresholds. The company also has branch offices in the Gulf (Riyadh, Qatar, Bahrain, Abu Dhabi and Dubai) supporting its overseas recruitment business, and separately holds strategic equity stakes in other listed consumer-internet businesses such as Eternal Limited (formerly Zomato) and PB Fintech Limited (Policybazaar).
