Shareholder Value Creation:

Continuing its commitment towards long-term shareholder value creation and consistent track record of regular dividend distribution, the Board has recommended a 30% dividend for the Financial Year 2025-26 reflecting strong financial stability and healthy cash flows.
Significant Developments:
Bank Account at RBI and IFSC Code: Transcorp has emerged as one of the first non-Bank entities to have an operative bank account held with the Reserve Bank of India and has also been allocated its own IFSC code. This will allow the company to initiate and settle RTGS/NEFT transactions, and participate in inter-bank and direct network settlements; amongst other banking advantages. The development reinforces the Company's position as a trusted and regulator-aligned participant within India's evolving digital financial services ecosystem and strengthens its regulated banking and payments infrastructure.
New regulatory framework for Trade / Business related Remittances: Empowered with the Reserve Bank of India's progressive policies and its AD2 license; the Company is now authorised to facilitate trade / business related outward and inward remittances (both to and from India). So far, this authorisation has been reserved exclusively for Banks.
NIL Public Fixed Deposits and Long Term Borrowings: The Company has no outstanding public fixed deposits or long-term borrowings as on date, having fully repaid all such liabilities. Consequently, finance and related costs for FY26 have been optimised to their lowest levels.
Management Commentary:
Rajesh Garg, Executive Director & Chief Financial Officer, commented: "The strong improvement in profitability during the quarter and year-end reflects our disciplined execution, focus on operational efficiency, and prudent financial management. We remain committed to maintaining financial prowess while pursuing sustainable growth opportunities that enhance long-term stakeholder value."
"During FY26, the Company declared dividends on two occasions comprising an Interim Dividend of 10% and a Final Dividend of 20%, resulting in a total dividend payout of 30%. The Company continues to maintain its disciplined compliance led approach aligned with RBI regulations, SEBI requirements, IRDAI norms and other applicable statutory frameworks. Moreover, no investor or SEBI related complaints remain pending."
"Notwithstanding moderation in topline turnover during the period, the Company has continued to deliver consistent growth in the bottom line surpassing the budgeted figures. This improvement reflects meaningful margin expansion driven by enhanced cost efficiencies, better resource allocation, and a sharper focus on profitable business segments, underscoring the strength and resilience of the Company's operating model."
Mr. Ayan Agarwal, CEO (Payment Systems), said : "During the quarter, the Company achieved important milestones in strengthening its payment systems infrastructure and regulatory positioning. The Company received an 'In-Principle Approval' from the Reserve Bank of India in January 2026 for participation in the Centralised Payment Systems (CPS) framework, marking a significant step towards deeper integration within India's digital payment ecosystem and earning the regulator's trust."
"These developments reinforce the Company's long-term commitment towards building a robust, compliant, and scalable payments platform aligned with the evolving regulatory framework. Transcorp has emerged as the largest non-bank entity in terms of transaction value for various payment networks in India."
"The Payment Systems division's income from operations has more than doubled; demonstrating the lucrative prospects of the business and the Company's resilience in a competitive industry. Following strengthened and novel integrations with ecosystem partners including RBI, networks, and marquee fintech clients - consistent growth is in line with expectations."
