Tata Sons’ FY26 profit rose 22% on Tata Capital IPO-related gains, while losses widened at Tata Digital, Air India, Tata Electronics and Agratas. Tata Digital said BigBasket is adapting to quick commerce and Tata Neu will expand payments, lending and insurance.

Why this matters

The result follows Tata Sons' FY26 filing with a ₹4,582 crore Tata Teleservices impairment and its disclosure that Air India's loss widened to ₹22,238 crore. It comes ahead of the August 18 AGM called amid quorum uncertainty.
