MUMBAI – Computer Age Management Services Ltd., registrar and transfer agent for mutual funds, reported a sharp growth in its net profit for the June quarter on the back of growth in revenue even as expenses remained steady. Both the net profit and revenue, however, missed analysts' estimates.
The company reported a net profit of INR 1.22 billion, up 16% on year. The net profit was below the Street's consensus estimate of INR 1.27 billion.

The company reported total expenses of INR 2.04 billion for the June quarter, practically unchanged from INR 2.05 billion in the year-ago quarter. Its employee benefit expenses declined marginally to INR 952 million and other expenses were also slightly down at INR 864 million. The company's board has recommended an interim dividend of INR 2.50 per share. The record date for the dividend is Aug. 12.
