Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], May 28 (ANI): The share price of business services provider Quess Corp declined by 1.6 per cent on Thursday afternoon after the company reported a net loss of Rs 630 crore in the fourth quarter ended March, marking a 934 per cent dive from a profit of Rs 76 crore in Q4 FY19.
In the entire FY20, the company posted a net loss of Rs 432 crore, down 268 per cent from a profit of Rs 257 crore. This included one off non-cash charge of Rs 664 crore on account of goodwill impairment and change in the tax regime.
