TAC Infosec Q1: Profit Zooms 137% YoY To ₹8 Cr, Revenue Up 102%

NSE Emerge-listed cybersecurity firm TAC Infosec’s profit after tax (PAT) zoomed nearly 137% to ₹8.1 Cr in the first quarter (Q1) of fiscal year 2026-27 (FY27) from ₹3.4 Cr in the year-ago quarter. PAT also rose 33.7% from ₹6 Cr reported in the preceding quarter.

On similar lines, operating revenue surged 102% to ₹19.8 Cr in the quarter under review as against ₹9.8 Cr in Q1 FY26. On a sequential basis, it jumped 27.3% from ₹15.5 Cr.

Meanwhile, expenses surged nearly 88% to ₹11.1 Cr in Q1 FY27 as against ₹5.9 Cr in the year ago quarter. In a press statement, the listed company said that its EBITDA rose 97.1% YoY to ₹9.8 Cr, while EBITDA margins improved 0.06 basis points to 48.8%.

The startup attributed the improving profitability to higher revenue from cybersecurity platforms, operating leverage, increased enterprise adoption, rising AI-led cybersecurity demand and improving margins.

The startup also claimed that the ongoing AI boom translated into stronger demand, deeper platform adoption and record performance in Q1 FY27. The startup also added that its AI-powered ESOF platform supported higher revenue per customer during the quarter.

TAC Infosec, however, added that its Web3 cybersecurity subsidiary, CyberScope, saw a comparatively weaker performance during the quarter due to volatility in global cryptocurrency markets, which led to lower activity across certain Web3 projects, token launches and smart-contract audit engagements.

However, the listed startup said that it continues to view Web3 security as a strategic long-term opportunity and will continue to expand CyberScope into areas such as institutional blockchain security, smart-contract assurance and enterprise digital-asset risk management.

“… The AI boom strengthened our business and helped us deliver a record quarter… This performance is particularly significant because it was achieved despite lower comparative contribution from CyberScope due to volatility in the cryptocurrency market… The strength of our core business enabled the group to substantially outperform these short-term headwinds,” said TAC Infosec founder and CEO Trishneet Arora.

This is the first time that the startup has furnished quarterly numbers, unlike previously when it disclosed half-yearly numbers. An auditors note, alongside the financial numbers, noted that TAC Infosec has voluntarily opted to submit its financial results on a quarterly basis.

The shift comes as TAC Infosec’s subsidiary, CyberScope, is currently preparing to list in the US. It confidentially filed a Form F-1 registration statement with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in December 2025. It did not offer any clear comprehensive timeline for this listing in its Q1 FY27 disclosures. 

Going forward, the listed startup said that it plans to continue investing in AI-led R&D, automation, global distribution and the expansion of its ESOF product ecosystem. It will also focus on increasing enterprise adoption, expanding recurring revenue streams, growing revenue per customer and integrating its cybersecurity, compliance and Web3 security capabilities into one platform.

Shares of TAC Infosec closed yesterday’s trading session 1.03% lower at ₹417.1 on NSE Emerge.
