Mindtree shares down 3 pc as Q3 earnings disappoint

NEW DELHI, Jan 20:  Shares of IT firm Mindtree fell by 3 per cent today after its net profit for the December quarter tumbled 26.7 per cent.
After a weak opening, shares of the company further slipped 2.76 per cent to Rs 471.45 on BSE.
On NSE, the shares lost 3 per cent to Rs 470.50.
Mid-sized IT firm Mindtree’s net profit for the December quarter fell 26.7 per cent to Rs 103.1 crore, impacted by currency movement, seasonality of business and lower profitability from its Bluefin and Magnet 360 business.
