Datamatics remains well positioned to deliver sustainable performance over the long term. However, near-term softness in the Digital Experience segment, along with continued macroeconomic uncertainty, has led to a downward revision in estimates, according to Choice Broking. 

The brokerage now expects revenue, earnings before interest and tax (Ebit), and profit after tax (PAT) to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 11.1 per cent, 22.1 per cent and 11.5 per cent, respectively, over FY25 to FY28 estimates. Choice Broking has revised its target price to ₹920 from ₹1,130 earlier and maintained a ‘Buy’ rating on the stock.
