Info Edge (India) Ltd reported a robust Q3 FY26 performance, with standalone revenue of ₹747 crore, reflecting steady growth across its digital platforms driven by improving market conditions and sustained demand from core business segments.
Recruitment business anchors growth
The recruitment vertical led by Naukri.com remained the primary growth driver, generating ₹548 crore in revenue in Q3 FY26, up from ₹494 crore a year earlier. This rise indicates continued hiring activity across sectors and strong corporate adoption of online recruitment solutions that offer scale, data-driven matching and efficiency.
Naukri’s established brand presence and extensive recruiter network supported consistent billings, even as some employers adopt selective hiring strategies. Demand for recruitment technology and analytics-led hiring tools has helped the segment retain momentum.
99acres maintains steady momentum
99acres, Info Edge’s property listings marketplace, reported revenue of ₹117 crore in the quarter, compared with ₹103 crore in Q3 FY25. The growth points to healthy activity in property searches, listings and advertising, particularly from developers and brokers prioritising digital channels.
While real estate demand varies regionally, online discovery platforms continue to benefit from rising consumer preference for digital-first property search and transactions, supporting sustained monetisation opportunities for portals like 99acres.
Other verticals show improvement
Info Edge’s smaller verticals, including matrimonial and education platforms such as Jeevansathi and Shiksha, contributed about ₹81.5 crore in Q3 FY26, up from ₹71.7 crore a year earlier. These businesses are gradually strengthening their revenue mix through user expansion and improved monetisation.
The incremental gains in these segments reflect longer-term investments in product enhancements and targeted marketing to deepen engagement and conversion rates among niche user cohorts.
Nine-month performance underlines consistency
For the first nine months of FY26, standalone revenue stood at ₹2,120 crore, up from ₹1,897 crore in the same period last year, representing near 12% growth. The cumulative results underline a consistent growth trajectory across multiple quarters and businesses.
Info Edge’s diversified internet portfolio, focus on product upgrades and data-led offerings have contributed to steady performance and positioned the company for continued expansion as digital adoption broadens across sectors.
Market response and outlook
Following the quarterly update, Info Edge’s shares saw a positive reaction, reflecting investor confidence in the company’s fundamentals. With a market capitalisation above ₹88,000 crore, Info Edge remains one of India’s most valuable publicly listed internet firms.
As hiring activity gradually recovers and digital penetration deepens in real estate, education and matchmaking services, Info Edge is well placed to benefit from the expanding online economy over the coming quarters.
