Despite the weak quarterly results, Delta Corp’s board has recommended a final dividend of ₹1.25 per share, subject to shareholder approval. The company also announced the appointment of two new independent directors to its board.

The stock has been on a rollercoaster ride in the past year, touching a 52-week high of ₹247.95 and a low of ₹104.30. The recent 20% jump in the stock price was due to industry-wide expectations of relief from the GST Council, which ultimately did not materialize.

Investors remain cautious about Delta Corp’s future prospects, as the gaming industry continues to face uncertainty regarding tax policies and regulatory changes. The stock was trading 1.2% lower at ₹141.15 during the early trading session.
