New Delhi: Gaming and sports media platform Nazara Technologies has reported a consolidated net loss of Rs 82.47 crore for the first quarter ended June 30.

The company had posted a consolidated net profit of Rs 51.34 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous fiscal, according to a regulatory filing.

Nazara’s revenue from operations stood at Rs 428.77 crore in Q1 FY27, a decline of 14 per cent from Rs 498.77 crore in the year-ago period.

On a sequential basis, revenue grew by 7.8 per cent. In Q4 FY26, the company had posted a net profit of Rs 55.7 crore.
