Birlasoft shares jumped over 8% on Tuesday after the company reported its earnings for the quarter ended March. Ace investor Ashish Dhawan owns 1.01% or 27,64,615 shares of the company.

What Happened: The IT company saw its bottom line go green in the March quarter after reporting a loss of ₹16.4 crore in the December quarter. The loss was mainly due to one of its biggest clients Invacare Corp – a US-based manufacturer and distributor of non-acute medical equipment – going bankrupt.

For the March quarter, the company’s revenue from operations stood at ₹1,226.39 crore, up 11% year-over-year. Profit for the review quarter stood at ₹112.2 crore. The company beat street estimates on both of these numbers. The company also announced a ₹2/share dividend for the year ended March 2023.
