Tanla Solutions reported more losses in the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2012, at Rs 73.34 crore from a profit of Rs 2.21 crore in the same quarter in the previous year.

Total income has come down to Rs 39.76 crore (Rs 71.58 crore) due to fall in revenues from overseas operations. Though domestic business doubled its contribution at Rs 6.13 crore, this segment formed very less in overall revenues.

The EPS (earnings per share) eroded sharply and ended up in the negative at –Rs 7.23 as against Rs 0.22 in the comparable quarter last year.
