Dev Information Technology sells 25% of subsidiary for ₹4.60 crore
The company booked a ₹92.36 crore accounting gain in FY26, masking core performance. It will retain a 75% stake in Dhyey Consulting after the sale.
— 1 earlier story on Dev Information Technology Ltd. →What's new
- Dev IT is selling a 25% stake in Dhyey Consulting to Unique Comp, Inc for ₹4.60 crore.
- The deal is expected to close within five months.
- The board recommended a final dividend of ₹0.10 per share for FY26.
Why this matters
The headline profit of ₹75.60 crore is misleading because it relies on a one-time accounting gain rather than operations. The divestment of a unit contributing nearly 16% of group revenue to an international partner is the real strategic move here.
What we're watching
- The actual cash impact of the divestment once the deal closes in five months.
- Whether the company can maintain profitability without non-cash accounting gains.
- The impact of the new international partnership on Dhyey Consulting's growth.
The full read
Dev Information Technology reported an annual profit of ₹75.60 crore for FY26, but the figure is deceptive. It rests on a ₹92.36 crore non-cash accounting gain triggered by the reclassification of Dev Accelerator Limited. Stripping that away reveals a different picture of the company's core performance. Alongside these results, the board approved the sale of a 25% stake in its subsidiary, Dhyey Consulting Services, to Unique Comp, Inc for ₹4.60 crore. Dhyey Consulting currently generates about 16% of the group's consolidated revenue. The parent company will retain a 75% controlling interest once the deal closes in five months. While the divestment brings in an international partner and provides a modest cash injection, the dividend of ₹0.10 per share is the only signal of actual liquidity. The company is leaning heavily on accounting reclassifications to pad its bottom line.
