NSE Emerge-listed cybersecurity firm TAC Infosec reported a 137% year-on-year rise in profit after tax (PAT) to ₹8.1 crore in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026-27 (Q1 FY27), up from ₹3.4 crore in the same period last year. Revenue doubled to ₹19.8 crore, a 102% increase from ₹9.8 crore in Q1 FY26, the company disclosed in a press statement this week.
The surge in profitability and revenue was driven by higher sales from TAC Infosec’s cybersecurity platforms and increased enterprise adoption, the company said. Operating expenses rose 88% to ₹11.1 crore, but the company’s EBITDA jumped 97.1% year-on-year to ₹9.8 crore, with EBITDA margins improving slightly to 48.8%. The startup credited the growth to rising demand for AI-powered cybersecurity solutions and operating leverage.
TAC Infosec’s AI-powered ESOF platform contributed to higher revenue per customer during the quarter, reflecting the broader industry trend of integrating artificial intelligence into cybersecurity. However, the company’s Web3 cybersecurity subsidiary, CyberScope, experienced weaker performance due to volatility in global cryptocurrency markets, which reduced activity in token launches and smart-contract audits. Despite this, the overall business posted record quarterly results.
The company’s sequential performance also improved, with PAT up 33.7% from ₹6 crore in the previous quarter and revenue rising 27.3% from ₹15.5 crore. These figures highlight TAC Infosec’s expanding footprint in the cybersecurity sector amid growing AI adoption, according to inc42.com.
