7Seas Entertainment revenue rose 30% as profit gained 10%

7SeasEntertainment Limited reported revenue from operations of Rs 6.52 crore for the quarter ended 30 September 2026, up 30% year-on-year, while net profit rose 10% to Rs 59.84 lakh. Total expenses increased 30% to Rs 5.83 crore, and a Rs 11.21 lakh current-tax charge reduced profit after tax from pre-tax profit of Rs 71.05 lakh.

How did 7Seas Entertainment's September-quarter revenue change?

7Seas Entertainment's revenue from operations rose to Rs 6.52 crore in the quarter ended 30 September 2026 from Rs 5.01 crore in the quarter ended 30 September 2025, an increase of Rs 1.51 crore or 30%. Revenue also increased from Rs 5.76 crore in the quarter ended 30 June 2026, a sequential rise of 13%.

Total income reached Rs 6.54 crore in the September 2026 quarter, compared with Rs 5.03 crore a year earlier and Rs 5.77 crore in the preceding quarter. Other income was Rs 1.47 lakh, against Rs 1.19 lakh in the September 2025 quarter and Rs 0.89 lakh in the June 2026 quarter, meaning operating revenue accounted for nearly all reported income.

7Seas Entertainment reported one operating segment, Gaming Software, under Indian Accounting Standard 108, or Ind AS 108, on operating segments. The filing therefore provides no separate revenue, cost or profit breakdown by game, platform or customer category for the Rs 6.52 crore of September-quarter operating revenue.

Why did 7Seas Entertainment's profit grow slower than revenue?

7Seas Entertainment's net profit after tax rose to Rs 59.84 lakh in the September 2026 quarter from Rs 54.56 lakh a year earlier, an increase of Rs 5.28 lakh or 10%. The net-profit increase was smaller than the 30% revenue increase because total expenses rose by Rs 1.35 crore to Rs 5.83 crore, broadly matching revenue growth in percentage terms.

Profit before tax was Rs 71.05 lakh, compared with Rs 54.56 lakh in the September 2025 quarter and Rs 68.52 lakh in the June 2026 quarter. The company recorded current tax of Rs 11.21 lakh in the September 2026 quarter, while the year-earlier and immediately preceding quarter columns show no tax expense, explaining the difference between pre-tax profit and the Rs 59.84 lakh post-tax result.

The results show no exceptional items for the quarter ended 30 September 2026. They also show no deferred-tax expense or other comprehensive income for the period, so total comprehensive income was the same as net profit at Rs 59.84 lakh.

Which costs changed during the September 2026 quarter?

7Seas Entertainment's other expenses increased to Rs 2.96 crore in the September 2026 quarter from Rs 1.66 crore a year earlier, a rise of Rs 1.30 crore or 78%. This was the largest reported expense line for the quarter, ahead of employee benefits expense of Rs 2.39 crore.

Depreciation and amortisation expense increased to Rs 48.50 lakh from Rs 18.45 lakh in the September 2025 quarter, an increase of Rs 30.05 lakh. The rise in other expenses and depreciation together was Rs 1.60 crore, while employee benefits expense declined by Rs 25.00 lakh year-on-year from Rs 2.64 crore.

Against the June 2026 quarter, employee benefits expense increased from Rs 2.14 crore to Rs 2.39 crore, other expenses increased from Rs 2.52 crore to Rs 2.96 crore, and depreciation rose from Rs 42.49 lakh to Rs 48.50 lakh. Total expenses consequently increased by Rs 74.00 lakh sequentially, from Rs 5.09 crore in June 2026 to Rs 5.83 crore in September 2026.

The September-quarter statement contains no reported amount for cost of materials consumed, purchases of stock-in-trade, inventory changes or finance cost. The absence of those reported lines means the disclosed expense base consists principally of employee benefits, depreciation and amortisation, and other expenses.

What do the half-year results show for 7Seas Entertainment?

7Seas Entertainment reported revenue from operations of Rs 12.29 crore for the half year ended 30 September 2026, compared with Rs 9.93 crore in the corresponding half year ended 30 September 2025. The Rs 2.36 crore increase represents growth of about 24% over the six-month period.

Other intangible assets rose to Rs 5.00 crore from Rs 4.42 crore, while other financial assets fell to Rs 20.00 lakh from Rs 6.16 crore; the filing gives no narrative explanation for these changes.

What new product and corporate actions did 7Seas Entertainment disclose?

7Seas Entertainment said it launched the Gamer Shorts mobile application on Android and iOS platforms. The company described Gamer Shorts as a short-news and short-games mobile app, but the filing did not disclose user numbers, revenue, launch date or financial targets for the application.

The board, at its 13 November 2026 meeting, recommended the reappointment of Kiran Kumar Bodla as a non-executive independent director for a second term. The proposed five-consecutive-year term is subject to members approving a special resolution through postal ballot, after his first term concluded on 7 November 2026.

The board also appointed CS Navajyoth Puttaparthi of Puttaparthi Jagannatham & Co. as scrutinizer for the remote e-voting postal ballot. It set 18 November 2026 as the cut-off date to determine members eligible to receive the notice and vote.

Conclusion

The September-quarter results show that 7Seas Entertainment increased revenue by Rs 1.51 crore year-on-year to Rs 6.52 crore, but the rise in net profit was Rs 5.28 lakh because expenses climbed by Rs 1.35 crore and current tax was Rs 11.21 lakh. The half-year figures followed the same pattern, with revenue rising faster than net profit between the corresponding six-month periods.

The next disclosed developments are the rollout of the Gamer Shorts app, for which the company has not provided operating or financial targets, and the postal-ballot process for Kiran Kumar Bodla's proposed second five-year term. The filing also leaves the reasons for the increase in trade receivables to Rs 10.43 crore and the fall in cash to Rs 40.48 lakh unresolved.
