The company received the assessment order on May 30, 2026. However, the disclosure to stock exchanges was made later because the order was received over the weekend.

The company stated that the disclosure was made immediately after completing its internal review. According to the assessment order, tax authorities have proposed transfer pricing adjustments of Rs. 90,95,38,080 under Section 92CA(3) of the Income Tax Act and added Rs. 32,62,88,114 to the company's taxable income under domestic tax provisions. Mastek said it currently does not expect any material financial impact from the order. The company noted that the computation sheet attached to the assessment order contains apparent errors, including the application of a higher tax rate, non-consideration of foreign tax credits, and failure to grant credit for advance tax paid by a subsidiary that was later merged with the company.
