Our diversified business across multiple geographies allows us to have various levers of growth and mitigate industry headwinds affecting any one segment.   

I am happy to note that we have grown 80% YoY in the first 9 months of FY23 backed by profitability and positive cash flows. This performance helps set a strong foundation for our future growth plans.

Particularly in this quarter, it is heartening to see our flagship product for young children “Kiddopia” come back onto a growth path as well as our recent acquisition Datawrkz deliver strong organic growth of around 55% YoY.

I look forward to the continued support of all our stakeholders as we continue to pursue our long standing commitment of Nazara playing a significant role in India’s journey towards becoming a global gaming powerhouse.”
